R Y A N 
S C H W A R T Z, 
Having been first duly sworn by a Notary 
Public of the State of New York, was 
examined and testified as follows: 
EXAMINATION BY MR . JONES: 
Q. 
Good morning. 
A. 
Good morning. 
Q. 
As I said1 my name is Colin Jones. 
I'm 
an attorney for the class plaintiffs, and joined by 
Connie Chan. 
Thank you for taking the time today. 
appreciate it. 
Just to start1 have you ever been 
deposed before? 
A. 
No. 
Q. 
And so since this is new for you, I'll 
go over some ground rules just so that we're all on 
the same page. 
so first 1 this isn't an endurance 
contest. 
I' l l take breaks1 but if you need a break 
yourself1 feel free to let me know and we can take a 
break as long as there's not a question pending. 
Seem fair? 
A. 
Q. 
Yes. 
Next1 do you understand that you are

testifying under oath and under penalty of perjury 
today the same as if you were in court? 
A. 
Yes . 
Q. 
And do you understand that what you say 
here today is being taken down by a court reporter? 
A. 
Yes. 
Q. 
So far, you're doing a great job of 
this, but to allow the court reporter to take down 
everything we say today, it's important that your 
responses be verbal, no shrugging, nodding, uh-huh. 
Try to avoid those if you can. 
A. 
I will probably do both that and try to 
respond verbally, yes. 
Q. 
we can do both. 
That works perfectly. 
For the same reason, we do have to be 
careful not to interrupt each other. 
So please wait 
until I finish the question before you start your 
answer, and I will try not to interrupt your answers. 
Does that seem doable? 
A. 
Yes . 
Q. 
If you don't understand a question, 
please tell me. 
I'll make an effort to rephrase it 
or clarify it if I can. 
But if I ask you a question 
and you answer it, I will assume that you understood

and that you are giving me your best and fullest 
answer. 
Does that sound fair? 
A . 
Yes. 
Q. 
Because you're under oath and because 
everything is being taken down, it's important for 
you to give me your best answer today. 
Does that make sense? 
A. 
Yes. 
Q. 
Now, I don't want you to guess if you 
don't know an answer , but I am entitled to your best 
estimate. 
So example of that distinction, if I ask 
you to tell me the size of my monitor on my desk in 
my office, that would just be purely a guess, and you 
don't have that answer to that. 
But if I ask you 
what the size of the monitor is on your desk in your 
office, you've seen it. 
You could give me an 
estimate even if you don't know the exact diagonal. 
Does that make sense? 
A . 
Yes . 
Q. 
You understand from time to time your 
counsel will state objections to my questions, but 
unless they specifically instruct you not to answer, 
you do need to answer the question after they finish .

a -- the events that you're going to ask me about 
today. 
Q. 
Did you review any documents that your 
attorneys di d not specifically provide you? 
A. 
No. 
Excuse me. 
No . 
Q. 
Have you spoken with anyone else about

In the last four years, yes, I'm 
sure I've spoken to people about t hese matters. 
Q. 
How about in the last year? 
A. 
Not outside of the last month . 
Q. 
I want to make sure that -- just so we 
have -- there's a lot of verbiage 
A. 
I understand. 
We're going to go back 
and forth. 
Q. 
So I'm going to kind of walk through and 
make sure that I have -- we have a shared 
understanding of a couple terms. 
A. 
Thank you. 
I appreciate that. 
Q. 
Absolutely. 
First, if I refer to the defendant in 
this case as Bank of America, BANA, B of A, or the 
bank, will those all make sense to you? 
A. 
Yes.
