|
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

|
3.

The

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 control over financial

with generally accepted accounting
principles;
|
|
(c)
|
Evaluated the effectiveness of
the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this

|
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

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
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
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.
