          a.   All significant deficiencies in the design or operation of
               internal controls which could adversely affect the registrant's
               ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data
               and have identified for the registrant's auditors any material
               weaknesses in internal controls; and

          b.   Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
               other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
               internal controls; and

     6.  The registrant's other certifying officers and I have indicated in this
         report whether or not there were significant changes in internal
         controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal
