| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 2. | Based
on my knowledge, this report does not contain           any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact           necessary to make the statements
made, in light of the circumstances under which           such statements were made, not

| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 3. | Based
on my knowledge, the financial statements, and           other financial information
included in this report, fairly present in all           material respects the financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows           of the registrant as of, and
for, the periods presented in this report;
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 4. | I
am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
          procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
          registrant 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 registrant, 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 registrant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 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
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 5. | I
have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
          financial reporting, to the registrants Independent Registered Public
          Accounting Firm and the audit committee of registrant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 registrant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 registrants internal control over
          financial reporting.
