     Co., Inc., SEC file No 0-7775;

2.   Based on my  knowledge,  this  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 covered by
     this annual report;

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

     respects the financial  condition,  results of operations and cash flows of
     the small  business  issuer as of, and for,  the periods  presented in this
     annual report;

4.   I am the small business issuer's  certifying officer and am responsible for
     establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
     in Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15(e) for the small business issuer and have:

     a.   Designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  or caused such
          disclosure   controls  and   procedures   to  be  designed   under  my
          supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the small
          business  issuer is made  known to me by others  within  this  entity,
          particularly  during the period in which this  annual  report is being
          prepared:

     b.   Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's  disclosure
          controls and  procedures  and presented in this report my  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

          internal  control over financial  reporting  that occurred  during the
          small  business  issuer's  fourth fiscal  quarter that has  materially
          affected,  or is  reasonably  likely to materially  affect,  the small
          business issuer's internal control over financial reporting; and

5.   I have disclosed,  based on my most recent  evaluation of internal  control
     over financial  reporting,  to the small business issuer's auditors and the
     small business issuer's board of directors:

     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 or not material,  that involves management or other
          employees who have a significant  role in the small business  issuer's
          internal control over financial reporting.
