    I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Torvec, Inc.2.
    
    Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not
misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;3.
    
    Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects
the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant
as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;4.
    
    The registrants other certifying
officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
registrant and have:
 a)
    
    Designed such disclosure controls and procedures,
or caused such disclosure controls and procedures
to be designed under our supervision, to ensure
that material information relating to the
registrant, including its consolidated
subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within
those entities, particularly during the period in
which this report is being prepared;b)
    
    Designed such internal controls over financial
reporting, or caused such internal controls over
financial reporting to be designed under our
supervision, to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles;c)
    
    Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrants
disclosure controls and procedures and presented in
this report our conclusions about the effectiveness
of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of
the end of the period covered by this report based
upon such evaluation; andd)
    
    Disclosed in this report any change in the
registrants internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the registrants
most recent fiscal quarter (the registrants fourth
fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report)
that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the registrants
internal control over financial reporting; and
 5.
    
    I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
financial reporting, to the registrants auditors and the audit committee of
registrants board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
functions):
 a)
    
    All significant deficiencies and material
weaknesses in the design or operation of internal
control over financial reporting which are
reasonably likely to adversely affect the
registrants ability to record, process, summarize
and report financial information; andb)
    
    Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
management or other employees who have a
significant role in the registrants internal
control over financial reporting.
