directors:

     (a) All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
operation of internal controls over financial reporting which are reasonably

     (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
