|   | c) | Disclosed                in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over                financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent                fiscal quarter (the registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an                annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely                to                materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial                reporting; and |

|   | 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 small business issuer’s ability                to record, process, summarize and report financial information;                and |
|--------|----|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | b) | Any                fraud, whether material or not material, that involves management                or other                employees who have a significant role in the registrant’s internal                controls over financial reporting. |
