         (2) Based on my knowledge, this amendment to the Annual Report does not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact

establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company 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 Company, including its consolidated subsidiary, is made
                  known to us by others within those entities, particularly

                  and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this
                  amendment to the Annual Report based on such evaluation; and

         (c)      Disclosed in this amendment to the Annual Report any change in
                  the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that
                  occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that
                  has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
                  affect, the Company's internal controls over financial
                  reporting; and

         (5) The Company's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based
on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to
the Company's auditors and the audit committee of the Company's board of
directors (or persons fulfilling the equivalent function):

         (a)      All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
                  design or operation of internal controls over financial
                  reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the
                  Company'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
                  Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
