          auditors and board of directors performing the equivalent functions of
          an audit committee:

          (a)  all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of
               internal controls which could adversely affect the Company's
               ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data
               and have identified for the Company's auditors any material
               weaknesses in internal controls; and

          (b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
               other employees who have a significant role in the Company's
               internal controls; and

          changes in internal controls or in other factors that could
          significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of my
          most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard
          to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
