misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

financial  condition,  results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as

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;

        internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the small
        business  issuer's  most  recent  fiscal  quarter  (the  small  business
        issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has
        materially  affected,  or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
        small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting.

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.
