    Based
      on my knowledge, this yearly report does not contain any untrue statement
      of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the

      have;
 
 (a)
    designed
      such disclosure controls and procedures 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 yearly report is being
      prepared;
 
 (b)
    evaluated
      the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures
      as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this yearly report
      (the “Evaluation Date”); and

      committee of registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the
      equivalent functions);
 
 (a)
    all
      significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls
      which could adversely affect the registrant’s ability to record, process,
      summarize and report financial data and have identified for the
      registrant’s auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls;
      and
 
 (b)
    any
      fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
      employees who have a significant role in the registrant’s internal
      controls; and
 
 6.
    The
      registrant’s other certifying officers and I have indicated in this yearly
      report whether there were significant changes in internal controls or in
      other facts that could significantly affect internal subsequent to the
      date of our most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with
