      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

4.    The small business  issuer's other  certifying  officer(s) 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 small business issuer 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  small  business  issuer,   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)Omitted

      (c)   Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's  disclosure  controls

         period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

      (d)Disclosed  in this  report  any  change in the  small  business  issuer's  internal
         control over financial  reporting that occurred during the small business  issuer's
         most recent fiscal  quarter (the small business  issuer's  fourth fiscal quarter in
         the case of an  annual  report)  that has  materially  affected,  or is  reasonably
         likely to materially  affect,  the small business  issuer's  internal  control over
         financial reporting; and

5.    The small business  issuer's other certifying  officer(s) and I have disclosed,  based
      on our most recent  evaluation of internal  control over financial  reporting,  to the
      small  business  issuer's  auditors  and the audit  committee  of the  small  business
      issuer's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

      (a)All significant  deficiencies  in the material  weakness in the design or operation
         of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  which are  reasonably  likely to
         adversely affect the small business issuer's ability to record, process,  summarize
         and report financial information; and

      (b)Any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves  management or other  employees
         who have a significant role in the small business  issuer's  internal controls over
         financial reporting.
