      control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
      13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and
  have:





(a) Designed such disclosure controls
and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed

others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this
report is being prepared;

over financial reporting; and

  functions):

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.
