|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|2. | Based on my knowledge, this 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

|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

|-- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|4. | CNETs other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and
          maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules

|-- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 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 related to CNET, including its consolidated subsidiaries,
                    is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the
                    period in which this report is being prepared;

| | b) | Evaluated the effectiveness of CNET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
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | c) | Disclosed in this report any change in CNETs internal control over
                    financial reporting that occurred during CNETs most recent fiscal quarter
                    that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect
                    CNETs internal control over financial reporting; and
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|5. | CNETs other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most
          recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to CNETs
          auditors and the audit committee of CNETs board of directors:
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 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 CNETs ability to record, process, summarize and report
                    financial data; and
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | b) | any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees
                    who have a significant role in CNETs internal control over financial
                    reporting.
