|                            | 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; |
|                            |   |   |

|                            |   |   |
|                            | d) | 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.                              | The registrant’s other certifying officer and 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   the 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; and |
|                            |   |   |
|                            | b) | 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. |
