      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

            reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal
            control over financial reporting; and

5.    The Company's other certifying officer(s) 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

            (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.
