      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
      information  included  in this  report,  fairly  present  in all  material

      over financial  reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules  12a-15(f) and
      15d-15(f) for the registrant 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
            registrant,  including its consolidated subsidiaries,  is made known

            registrant's internal control over financial reporting; and

5.    The registrant's other certifying  officer and I have disclosed,  based on
      our most recent  evaluation of internal control over financial  reporting,
      to the  registrant's  auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's
      board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent function):

      a)    All significant deficiencies and material weaknessesin the design or
            operation of internal  control over  financial  reporting  which are
            reasonably  likely to adversely affect the  registrant'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  registrant's
