Inc.;
|
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 misleading with respect to the period
covered by this report;
|
3)
|
Based
on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information
included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this
report;
|
4)
|
The
registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d–15(e)) and internal
control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Rules 13a-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 to us by others within those
entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being
prepared;
|
b)
|
Designed
such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal

|
c)
|
Evaluated

and
|
d)
|
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 reasonably likely to
materially affect, the 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 registrant's board of
directors (or persons performing the equivalent
function):
|
a)
|
All
significant deficiencies in 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 internal control
over financial reporting.
