|
| | a) | | Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and |

| | | | 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 |

|
| | 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. |
