internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13-
a-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 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) Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused

materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting;
and

over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee
of the 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 reasonable
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 involved management or
other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal
control over financial reporting.
