| 4.                                      | 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-15(e) and 15d-15(e))   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 us by   others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this   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 report based on such   evaluation; and |
|                                    |   |   |
|                                    |   | (c) disclosed in this report any change in the   company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the   period covered by the annual report that has materially affected, or is   reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over   financial reporting; and |

| 5.                                      | 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 the audit committee of the   company’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 company’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   company’s internal control over financial reporting. |
