DIRECT EXAMINATION BY MS. COMEY:

MS. COMEY: Good afternoon, Mr. Kaplan. Did you receive a subpoena requiring you to testify at this trial?

MS. COMEY: Do you have an attorney who represents you in connection with this matter?

MS. COMEY: And based on your discussions with your attorney, do you intend to invoke your constitutional right not to testify and not to answer any and all questions put to you at this trial on the grounds of potential self-incrimination?

MS. COMEY: Do you understand that if the Court enters an order granting you immunity that you will be required to answer any and all questions truthfully here today?

MS. COMEY: Do you understand that that order will not protect you from prosecution for perjury if you make a false statement here today?
