The small business issuer's other
certifying officers and I are responsible 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 controls
and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the
period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and





(c)           
Disclosed in this report any change in the small business issuer's internal

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


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





(a)           
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses 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.
