2. Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue

were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this quarterly
report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this quarterly 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 quarterly report;

4. The registrant's certifying officers and I are responsible for establishing
and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act
Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant and have:

        a) designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that
        material information relating to the registrant is made known to me by
        others, particularly during the period in which this quarterly report is
        being prepared;

        b) evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
        and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the quarterly
          report (the "Evaluation Date"); and

        effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on my
        evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;

5. The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based on our
most recent evaluation, to the registrant's auditors and the 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
quarterly report whether or not there were significant changes in internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls
subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation, including any corrective
actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
