                           of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the
                           end of the period covered by this annual report based

                           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

                  and the audit committee of the Registrant's Board of Directors
                  (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

                  a.       All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses

                           financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
                           adversely affect the Registrant's ability to record,
                           process, summarize and report financial information;
                           and
