4. The registrant's other certifying officers and I am responsible for establishing and maintaining
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the

5. The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of
internal controls over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of
