    2.       Based on my knowledge, this annual 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

    4.       The registrant's other certifying officers 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)) 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 annual report is being prepared;

               b.       evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's
                        disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this

                        the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of
                        the period covered by this report based on such
                        evaluation; and

                        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 officers and I have disclosed,
             based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
             financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit

             the equivalent functions):

               a.       all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in
                        the design or operation of internal controls over
                        financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
                        adversely
