I, BRUNO MARS, of legal age, single, Filipino, presently

residing at 456 Ayala Avenue, Makati City, a business

in response to the questions propounded by Atty. Anton
Noble in his office at Suite 333, Queen Tower, Recto Avenue,

that I may face criminal liability for false testimony or

along with Mr. Red Grande?
A4: We are in the business of buy and sell of car spare parts
and accessories.
