2. Based on my knowledge, this 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 with respect to the period covered by this report;
3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as

4. The registrant's other certifying officer 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)) and internal control over financial

registrant and have:
a) Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such

us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
which this report is being prepared;
b) Designed such internal controls over financial reporting, or caused
such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under

control over financial reporting; and
5. The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on
our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the

directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
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, weather or not material, that involves management or other
employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal
control over financial reporting.
