Notes to Clients:

1. Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act references only that the periodic report must be accompanied by the above certification. We recommend that if the periodic report is transmitted electronically, the certifications be transmitted electronically via EDGAR in a separate file tagged as correspondence immediately following the transmission of the report, but not filed as part of the report. If the periodic report is filed in paper, the certifications should be transmitted at the same time in paper.
   
   
2. Certification is only required for periodic reports that contain financial statements.
   
   
3. It is unclear whether the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires separate certifications by the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer of the issuer, or whether both officers can provide a joint certification. Until further guidance is provided, we recommend that two separate certifications be prepared.
