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) evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's disclosure

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

based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial
reporting, to the small business issuer's auditors and the audit committee of
small business issuer's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
function):

      a) all significant deficiencies 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 control over financial reporting.
