                    CERTIFICATION OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
                       PURSUANT TO RULES 13a-14 AND 15d-14
                     OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

I, Timothy J. Owens,  Chief  Executive  Officer of QT 5, Inc.  (the  "Company"),
certify that:

         I have reviewed this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of QT 5, Inc.

         Based on my  knowledge,  this Annual 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  misleading  with  respect to the period  covered by this Annual
Report.

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

         The  Company's  other  certifying  officer  and I are  responsible  for
establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Company 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 Company,  including its consolidated  subsidiaries,  is
                  made known to me by others within those entities, particularly
                  during  the  period  in which  the  periodic  report  is being
                  prepared;

         (b)      evaluated  the  effectiveness  of  the  Company'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
                  Annual Report based on such evaluation; and

         (c)      disclosed  in this Annual  Report any change in the  Company's
                  internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
                  the Company's  most recent fiscal  quarter that has materially
                  affected,  or is reasonably likely to materially  affect,  the
                  Company's internal control over financial reporting; and

         The Company's other certifying  officer and I have disclosed,  based on
our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting,  to the
Company's  auditors and to the audit  committee  of the board of  directors  (or
persons fulfilling the equivalent function):

================================================================================

         (i)      all  significant  deficiencies  in the design or  operation of
                  internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably
                  likely to adversely  affect the  Company's  ability to record,
                  process, summarize and report financial information; and

         (ii)     any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves management
                  or  other  employees  who  have  a  significant  role  in  the
                  Company's internal control over financial reporting.
