`thereof; the same is true to my own knowledge, except as to the matters therein alleged to be on
`
`information and belief, and as to those matters I believe it to be true. The reason this verification
`
`is made by me and not by the defendant is that the defendant does not maintain an office within
`
`New York County.
`
`
`
`The grounds of my belief as to all matters not stated upon my own knowledge are based
`
`on a review of the contents of the file maintained by this office.
