         2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any
untrue statement of a 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 with respect to
the period covered by this report;

         3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other

         4. I am responsible for establishing and maintaining
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting
(as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the
registrant and have:

      a.  Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused
such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under my

registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
me by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
which this report is being prepared;

      b.  Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or

or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal
control over financial reporting; and

         5. I have disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation of

and the audit committee of the registrant's board of directors (or
persons performing the equivalent functions):

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.
