        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

  3.       Based
        on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information

        financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant
        as
        of, and for, the periods presented in this annual report;
  4.       The
        registrant’s other certifying officers and I are responsible for establishing
        and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange

        Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) for the registrant and we 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,

        the
        period in which this report is being prepared;
  b)      designed
        such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control

        the
        preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
        generally accepted accounting principles; and
  c)      evaluated
        the effectiveness of the registrant’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
  d)      disclosed
        in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial
        reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent quarter that has
        materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
        registrant’s internal control over financial reporting;
  5.       The
        registrant’s other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based on our most
        recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the
        registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the registrant’s board of
        directors (or persons performing the equivalent function):
  a)      all
        significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation
        of
        internal controls over financial reporting which are reasonably 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 involves management or other employees
        who
        have a significant role in the registrant’s internal control over financial
        reporting.
