NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 1 Basis of Presentation
- -------------------------------
The unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements as of, or for the
period ended, May 1, 2004, have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and rule 10-01. The balance sheet at November 1, 2003
has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. In the
opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accruals) which are considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations for the period have been made. Certain
financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. The reader is referred to the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report
on Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 2003.

At both May 1, 2004 and November 1, 2003, approximately 81% of merchandise
inventories are valued by the Last-In-First-Out ("LIFO") method of inventory
valuation while the balance of inventories are valued by the First-In-First-Out
("FIFO") method. If the FIFO method had been used for the entire inventory,
inventories would have been $3,260,000 and $2,735,000 higher than reported at
May 1, 2004 and November 1, 2003, respectively.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements in
order to conform to the current year presentation.

These results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire
fiscal year.

Note 2 Adoption of New Accounting Standards
- ---------------------------------------------
In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 132 (revised 2003), "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other
Postretirement Benefits - an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, and 106"
("SFAS 132"). The revised Statement retains the disclosure requirements
contained in SFAS 132 before the amendment but requires additional disclosures
about the assets, obligations, cash flows, and net periodic benefit cost of
defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans.
The annual disclosure requirements under this Statement are effective for the
Company's fiscal year ending October 30, 2004, and the quarterly disclosure
requirements are effective for the Company's interim periods beginning with the
second quarter ending May 1, 2004. The implementation of SFAS 132, as revised in
2003, did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements (See Note 6).

In May 2004, the staff of the FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") No. FAS
106-2, "Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003," which superseded
FSP No. FAS 106-1. This FSP provides guidance on the accounting for the effects
of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003
(the "Act") for employers that sponsor postretirement health care plans that
provide prescription drug benefits. This FSP also requires those employers to
provide certain disclosures regarding the effect of the federal subsidy provided
by the Act (the "Subsidy"). The guidance in this FSP related to the accounting
for the Subsidy applies only to the sponsor of a single-employer defined benefit
postretirement health care plan for which (a) the employer has concluded that
prescription drug benefits available under the plan to some or all participants
for some or all future years are "actuarially equivalent" to Medicare Part D and
thus qualify for the Subsidy under the Act and (b) the expected Subsidy will
offset or reduce the employer's share of the cost of the underlying
postretirement prescription drug coverage on which the Subsidy is based. This
FSP also provides guidance for the disclosures about the effects of the Subsidy
8

for an employer that sponsors a postretirement health care benefit plan that
provides prescription drug coverage but for which the employer has not yet been
able to determine actuarial equivalency. This FSP is effective for the first
interim period beginning after June 15, 2004. We are currently investigating the
impact of FSP No. FAS 106-2`s initial recognition, measurement and disclosure
provisions on our financial statements.

Note 3 Stock-Based Compensation
- ---------------------------------
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," ("APB 25") and related
interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under this method,
compensation cost is measured as the amount by which the market price of the
underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the stock option at the date at
which both the number of options granted and the exercise price are known.

In accordance with SFAS 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -
Transition and Disclosure," the effect on net income and earnings per share if
the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to stock-based employee compensation
is as follows:

Note 4 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
- ---------------------------------------------
The Company completed its annual impairment test prescribed by SFAS 142 and
concluded that no impairment of goodwill existed as of November 2, 2003. The
gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company's other
intangible assets as of May 1, 2004 and November 1, 2003 are as follows:

Amortization expense recorded on the intangible assets for the thirteen weeks
ended May 1, 2004 and May 3, 2003 was $26,000 and $53,000, respectively and was
$52,000 and $105,000 for the twenty six weeks ended May 1, 2004 and May 3, 2003,
respectively. The estimated amortization expense for the Company's other
intangible assets for the current and four succeeding fiscal years is as
follows:

Note 5 Long-term Debt
- -----------------------
On January 30, 2004 the Company completed the financing for the purchase of
$1,100,000 of equipment for the expanded and renovated store location in East
Brunswick, New Jersey. The note bears interest at 6.20% and is payable in
monthly installments over its five year term.

As of April 15, 2004 the Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term
Loan Agreement was amended to allow the Company to borrow under the revolving
credit facility, on any Tuesday or Wednesday, up to $5,000,000 in excess of the
availability under the borrowing base limitation of 65% of eligible inventory as
long as a like amount of cash and cash equivalents are on hand at store level or
in transit to the Company's banks. This amount is reduced to $4,000,000 on June
16, 2004 and $3,000,000 on July 16, 2004 with the provision expiring on August
16, 2004. Additionally, the amendment realigned the annual limits on Adjusted
Indebtedness, Indebtedness attributable to Capitalized Lease Obligations,
Adjusted Capex and Store Project Capex to more closely follow the timing of the
Company's new store and store remodeling program. The lending group also
consented to the purchase of a store location from Wakefern for $1,000,000.

===== ====== ===== =====

As previously disclosed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in
the Company's 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on January 29,
2004, the Company's current funding policy for its qualified pension plans is to
contribute annually the amount required by regulatory authorities to meet
minimum funding requirements. The Company presently anticipates contributing
approximately $892,000 to its pension plans during fiscal 2004. This amount is
based on preliminary information and the actual amount contributed will be
determined based on the final actuarial calculations, plan asset performance,
possible changes in law and other factors. The Company has contributed $237,000
in the first 26 weeks of fiscal 2004, and anticipates contributing approximately
$655,000 more for expected future benefit payments during the remainder of
fiscal 2004.

Since the Company's Other Post Retirement Plan is unfunded, the contributions to
this plan are equal to the benefit payments made during the year. There were no
benefit payments made during the twenty six weeks ended May 1, 2004.

Note 7 Commitments and Contingencies
- --------------------------------------
The Company previously reported, in Item 3. Legal Proceedings and Note 14 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for
its fiscal year ended November 1, 2003, on the settlement of a shareholders
derivative action commenced by Melvin Jules Bukiet et. al. ( together the
"Plaintiffs" ) against the Company,as nominal defendant, and against all five
11

members of the Board of Directors, Joseph J. Saker, Richard J. Saker, Charles T.
Parton, Albert A. Zager and Robert H. Hutchins (together, the "Defendants"), in
their capacities as directors and/or officers of the Company. The Plaintiffs'
have applied for an award of legal fees of $975,000 in connection with the
settlement of the derivative action. We believe that the amount of the award of
attorneys fees sought by the Plaintiffs is unreasonable based upon the outcome
of the litigation, and are vigorously contesting the Plaintiffs' fee
application. The Company's directors and officers liability insurance carrier
has reserved its rights under the Company's directors and officers liability
insurance policy with respect to the claims made in the derivative action,
including claims for the Plaintiffs' attorneys' fees and costs of the defense,
and has preliminarily advised us that certain of the claims made in the
derivative action and related legal expenses are not, in the insurance carrier's
view, covered by the policy. The Company is awaiting the Court's decision on the
application for legal fees. It is not possible, at this juncture, to predict the
amount of fees that may be awarded or whether or to what extent any such fees
and the Company's legal expenses for defending the derivative action will be
covered by its directors and officers liability insurance policy. The Company
has not accrued in its financial statements for legal fees and expenses which
may be incurred in connection with this legal proceeding. Net income and EBITDA
in fiscal 2004 may be adversely affected to the extent that the Company's
defense costs and any legal fees that may be awarded are not covered by
directors and officers liability insurance.

Part I - Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
- ------------------------------------------
Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that management
believes are important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and
results and require management's most difficult, subjective or complex
judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of
matters that are inherently uncertain.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company's critical accounting policies relating to the impairment of
goodwill, patronage dividends earned as a stockholder of Wakefern, pension
plans and workers' compensation insurance are described in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 2003. As of May 1, 2004 there
have been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies
contained therein.

Financial Condition and Liquidity
- ---------------------------------
The Company is a party to a Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term
Loan Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with four financial institutions. The
Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and
provided for a total commitment of up to $80,000,000, including a revolving
credit facility (the "Revolving Note") of up to $35,000,000, a term loan ("the
Term Loan") in the amount of $25,000,000 and a capital expenditures facility
(the "Capex Facility") of up to $20,000,000. As of May 1, 2004 the Company owed
$17,500,000 on the Term Loan and $16,763,723 under the Capex Facility.

As of April 15, 2004 the Credit Agreement was amended to allow the Company to
borrow under the revolving credit facility, on any Tuesday or Wednesday, up to
$5,000,000 in excess of the availability under the borrowing base limitation of
65% of eligible inventory as long as a like amount of cash and cash equivalents
are on hand at store level or in transit to the Company's banks. This amount is
reduced to $4,000,000 on June 16, 2004 and $3,000,000 on July 16, 2004 with the
provision expiring on August 16, 2004. Additionally, the amendment realigned the

12

annual limits on Adjusted Indebtedness, Indebtedness attributable to Capitalized
Lease Obligations, Adjusted Capex and Store Project Capex to more closely follow
the timing of the Company's new store and store remodeling program. The lending
group also consented to the purchase of a store location from Wakefern for
$1,000,000.

The Company's compliance with the major financial covenants under the Credit
Agreement was as follows as of May 1, 2004:

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Financial Covenant Credit Agreement Actual
(As defined in the
Credit Agreement)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjusted EBITDA (1) Greater than $24,000,000 $ 27,762,000
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leverage Ratio (1)(2) Less than 3.0 to 1.00 2.40 to 1.00
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debt Service Coverage
Ratio (3) Greater than 1.10 to 1.00 2.13 to 1.00
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjusted Capex (4) Less than $2,595,000 (5) $ 1,611,000 (6)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Store Project Capex Less than $24,500,000 (5) $ 18,009,000 (6)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1) Excludes obligations under capitalized leases, interest expense and
depreciation expense attributable to capitalized leases and changes in the
LIFO reserve.

(2) The Leverage Ratio is calculated by dividing the current and non-current
portions of Long-Term Debt and Long-Term Debt Related Party by Adjusted
EBITDA.

(3) The Debt Service Coverage Ratio is calculated by dividing Operating Cash
Flow by the sum of adjusted net interest expense, which excludes interest
on capitalized leases, the current provision for income taxes and
regularly scheduled principal payments, which exclude principal payments
on capitalized leases. Operating Cash Flow is calculated by subtracting
amounts expended for property and equipment which are not used for
projects in excess of $500,000 ($1,144,000 for the twenty six weeks ended
May 1, 2004) from Adjusted EBITDA.

(4) Adjusted Capex is all capital expenditures other than Store Project Capex.

(5) Represents limitations on capital expenditures for fiscal 2004.

(6) Represents capital expenditures for fiscal 2004.

No cash dividends have been paid on the Common Stock since 1979, and the Company
has no present intentions or ability to pay any dividends in the near future on
its Common Stock. The Credit Agreement does not permit the payment of any cash
dividends on our Common Stock.

Working Capital
- ---------------
At May 1, 2004, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $5,873,000
compared to working capital of $3,959,000 at November 1, 2003 and $2,030,000 at
May 3, 2003. Since the end of fiscal 2003, working capital declined and a
deficiency was created as a result of the collection of related party
receivables from Wakefern related to the fiscal 2003 patronage dividend and the
increase in accounts payable to others resulting from the cost of construction
and equipment for the new locations opened in April and May 2004. Funds used to
pay these accounts payable will come from the revolving credit facility thereby
increasing the Revolving Note which is classified as long-term borrowings. This
will result in a corresponding increase in working capital.

During fiscal year 2002, the Business Tax Reform Act was passed in the State

13

of New Jersey. This legislation is effective for tax years beginning on or after
January 1, 2002 (fiscal 2003). Corporate taxpayers are subject to an Alternative
Minimum Assessment ("AMA"), which is based upon either New Jersey Gross Receipts
or New Jersey Gross Profits, if the AMA exceeds the tax based on net income. We
have included in our current tax provision the effect of the AMA. The AMA
increased our cumulative State current tax liability, net of Federal tax
benefit, by $1,873,000. This liability was funded prior to May 1, 2004.
Additionally, in March 2002 and May 2003 The Job Creation and Worker Assistance
Act of 2002 and The Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 ("Tax
Acts") were passed by the United States Congress. The accumulated Federal tax
benefit for accelerated depreciation resulting from the Tax Acts is
approximately $3,266,000 for fiscal 2003 and the first six months of fiscal 2004
and is reflected in our prepaid and refundable income taxes.

The Company normally requires small amounts of working capital since inventory
is generally sold at approximately the same time that payments to Wakefern and
other suppliers are due and most sales are for cash or cash equivalents.

Working capital ratios were as follows:

May 1, 2004 .93 to 1.0
November 1, 2003 1.05 to 1.0
May 3, 2003 1.03 to 1.0

Cash flows (in millions) were as follows:

Totals $ (.9) $ .1
======= ======

The Company had $7,740,000 of available credit, at May 1, 2004, under its
revolving credit facility. The Company has capital commitments (net of landlord
contributions of $8,019,000) of $2,023,000 for leasehold improvements and
$2,420,000 for equipment related to two stores which were under construction,
one of which opened on April 28, 2004 and the other on May 19, 2004. One of
these stores is a replacement store and one is a new store. Both of these
projects are in central New Jersey and are World Class stores. The amounts
available under the Credit Agreement will adequately meet our operating needs,
scheduled capital expenditures and debt service for fiscal 2004.

For the 26 weeks ended May 1, 2004, depreciation was $9,566,000 while capital
expenditures, excluding capitalized leases, totaled $19,620,000, compared to
$8,121,000 and $19,034,000, respectively, in the prior year period. The increase
in depreciation was the result of a full twenty six weeks of depreciation for
the equipment and leasehold improvements for the four new locations opened in
fiscal 2003, the new bakery facility and the expansion and remodeling of the
East Brunswick store substantially completed in the quarter ended January 31,
2004 and the new location opened in April 2004, as well as seven additional
capitalized real estate leases. Capital expenditures in the first six months of
fiscal 2004, consisting of the acquisition of equipment and leasehold
improvements for the two locations opened in April and May 2004 and the East
Brunswick store, increased slightly as compared to capital expenditures in the
first six months of fiscal 2003 when two new locations opened and the bakery
commissary and two additional stores were under construction.

Results of Operations (13 weeks ended May 1, 2004 compared to 13 weeks ended
- ---------------------
May 3, 2003)

Sales:
- ------
Sales for the current period totaled $279.0 million as compared to $254.6
million in the prior year period. This represents an increase of 9.6 %. Sales
for the current quarter included the operations of the new locations opened in
May 2003, October 2003 and April 2004 in North Brunswick, Hamilton and
Lawrenceville, New Jersey, respectfully. The location in North Brunswick
replaced an older, smaller store.

Same store sales from the twenty two stores in operation in both periods
increased 2.7%. This increase in comparable store sales was partially offset by
decreased sales in certain of the Company's stores affected by competitive store
openings and the impact from the opening of several of our new locations.

Gross Profit:
- -------------
Gross profit as a percent of sales increased to 26.7% of sales compared to 26.2%
in the prior year period. Patronage dividends, applied as a reduction of the
cost of merchandise sold, were $2.3 million in the current period compared to
$1.8 million in the prior year period. The improvement in gross profit was the
result of improved product mix, the contribution of the new locations opened in
fiscal 2003, increased patronage dividends and a reduction in Wakefern
assessment as a percentage of sales. These increases were partially offset by
programs implemented in certain of the Company's stores to address competitive
store openings.

15

Operating Expenses:
- -------------------
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales were 24.7%
versus 24.9% in the prior year period. The decrease in selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percent of sales was primarily due to decreases in
certain expense categories as a percentage of sales. As a percentage of sales,
labor and related fringe benefits decreased .14%, administrative expense
decreased .34% and supply expense decreased .04%. These decreases were partially
offset by increases in occupancy expense of .14%, depreciation, including
depreciation on capitalized leases, of .07%, selling expense of .06% and
pre-opening costs of .12%. The decrease in labor and related fringe benefits
resulted from the addition of personnel for new stores opened in the prior year
period, partially offset by contractual increases in fringe benefits. The
decrease in administrative expense was primarily the result of an increase in
the reserve for closed store expense in the prior year period, a decrease in
certain fringe benefit costs for administrative personnel and the decrease of
other administrative costs as a percentage of sales. The increase in occupancy
was related to increased cost of utilities and snow removal. Pre-opening costs
were for the new Lawrenceville, New Jersey store opened on April 28, 2004 and
the new Aberdeen, New Jersey store opened May 19, 2004.

Interest Expense:
- -----------------
Interest expense increased to $3,854,000 from $3,010,000, while interest income
was $37,000 compared to $40,000 for the prior period. The increase in interest
expense for the current year period was due to an increase in average
outstanding debt, including increased capitalized lease obligations, and an
increase in the average interest rate paid on debt.

Income Taxes:
- -------------
An income tax rate of 38% has been used in the current period as compared to 40%
in the prior year period. The tax rate used is based on the expected effective
tax rates.

Net Income:
- ----------
Net income was $956,000 in the current year period compared to $128,000 in the
prior year period. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization ("EBITDA") for the current period were $10,341,000 as compared to
$7,570,000 in the prior year period. Net income per common share on a diluted
basis was $.93 in the current period compared to $.13 in the prior year period.
Per share calculations are based on 1,026,595 shares outstanding in the current
year period and 1,011,948 shares outstanding in the prior year period.

EBITDA is presented because management believes that EBITDA is a useful
supplement to net income and other measurements under accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States since it is a meaningful measure of a
company's performance and ability to meet its future debt service requirements,
fund capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. EBITDA is not a
measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States and should not be considered as an alternative to (i) net
income (or any other measure of performance under generally accepted accounting
principles) as a measure of performance or (ii) cash flows from operating,
investing or financing activities as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure
of liquidity. The following table reconciles reported net income to EBITDA:

Results of Operations (26 weeks ended May 1, 2004 compared to 26 weeks ended
- --------------------- May 3, 2003)

Sales:
- ------
Sales for the current twenty six week period totaled $573.8 million as compared
to $511.7 million in the prior year period. This represents an increase of
12.1%. Sales for the current twenty six week period included the operations of
five new locations opened in December 2002, January 2003, May 2003, October 2003
and April 2004 in Woodbridge, Ewing, North Brunswick, Hamilton and Lawrenceville
New Jersey, respectfully. The locations in Woodbridge and North Brunswick
replaced older, smaller stores.

Same store sales from the twenty stores in operation in both periods increased
3.0%. This increase in comparable store sales was partially offset by decreased
sales in certain of the Company's stores affected by competitive store openings
and the impact from the opening of several of our new locations.

Gross Profit:
- -------------
Gross profit as a percent of sales increased to 26.4% of sales compared to 25.7%
in the prior year period. Patronage dividends, applied as a reduction of the
cost of merchandise sold, were $4.7 million in the current period compared to
$3.7 million in the prior year period. The improvement in gross profit was the
result of improved product mix, the contribution of the new locations opened in
fiscal 2003, increased patronage dividends and a reduction in Wakefern
assessment as a percentage of sales. This increase was offset in part by the
costs associated with programs implemented in certain of the Company's stores to
address competitive store openings.

Operating Expenses:
- -------------------
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales were 24.5% in
both the current and prior year periods. Increases in certain selling, general
and administrative expenses as a percent of sales in the current year period
were offset by decreases in other expense categories as a percentage of sales.
As a percentage of sales, administrative expense decreased .12% and pre-opening
costs decreased .09%. These decreases were offset by increases in selling
expense of .09% and depreciation, including depreciation on capitalized leases,
of .08%,. The decrease in administrative expense was the result of the decrease
of administrative costs as a percentage of sales and an increase in the reserve
for closed store expense in the prior year period. Pre-opening costs were for
the Lawrenceville store opened in April 2004 and some costs for the Aberdeen
store opened in May 2004 as compared to three locations opened in fiscal 2003.

17

Interest Expense:
- -----------------
Interest expense increased to $7,638,000 from $5,331,000, while interest income
was $64,000 compared to $77,000 for the prior year period. The increase in
interest expense for the current year period was due to an increase in average
outstanding debt, including increased capitalized lease obligations, and an
increase in the average interest rate paid on debt.

Income Taxes:
- -------------
An income tax rate of 38% has been used in the current period as compared to 40%
in the prior year period. The tax rate used is based on the expected effective
tax rates.

Net Income:
- -----------
Net income was $2,196,000 in the current year period compared to $477,000 in the
prior year period. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization ("EBITDA") for the current period were $20,910,000 as compared to
$14,356,000 in the prior year period. Net income per common share on a diluted
basis was $2.15 in the current period compared to $.47 in the prior year period.
Per share calculations are based on 1,020,607 shares outstanding in the current
period and 1,014,500 shares outstanding in the prior year period.

EBITDA is presented because management believes that EBITDA is a useful

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
Except for indebtedness under the Credit Agreement which is variable rate
financing, the balance of our indebtedness is fixed rate financing. We believe
that our exposure to market risk relating to interest rate risk is not material.
The Company believes that its business operations are not exposed to market risk
relating to foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk or equity price
risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
- ----------------------------------
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period
covered by this quarterly report, the Company carried out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with
the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's President
and Chief Executive Officer along with the Company's Chief Financial Officer,
who concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are
effective. The Company's Vice President - Internal Audit and Principal
Accounting Officer also participated in this evaluation. During the Company's
last fiscal quarter, there has been no significant change in the Company's
internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports
filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
