business issuer and 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 small business issuer,  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 the small  business  issuer's  disclosure

     internal control over financial reporting; and

performing the equivalent functions):

(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.
