to make the  statements  made,  in light of the  circumstances  under which such

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

4.       The  Registrant's  other  certifying  officer and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Registrant and we have:

         a)       designed  such  disclosure  controls and  procedures 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 quarterly report is being prepared;

on our most  recent  evaluation,  to the  Registrant's  auditors  and the  audit
committee  of  Registrant's  board  of  directors  (or  persons  performing  the
equivalent function):

         a)       all  significant  deficiencies  in the design or  operation of
internal  controls  which could  adversely  affect the  Registrant's  ability to
record, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for the
Registrant's auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls; and

         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 officer and I have indicated in this
quarterly  report  whether or not there  were  significant  changes in  internal
controls or in other factors that could  significantly  affect internal controls
subsequent to the date of our most recent  evaluation,  including any corrective
actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
