2.   Based on my knowledge, this amended 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

3.   Based on my knowledge, the consolidated financial statements, and other
     financial information included in this amended annual report, fairly

     operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods
     presented in this amended 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 Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant and we have:

     a)   designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that
          material information relating to the registrant, including its
          consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those
          entities, particularly during the period in which this amended annual
          report is being prepared;

     b)   evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls

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

     including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies
     and material weaknesses.
