||
(b) | Designed such internal control over financial

affect, the registrants internal control over
financial reporting; and |
5. | The registrants other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed,
based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial

in the design or operation of internal control over
financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
adversely affect the registrants ability to record,
process, summarize and report financial information;
and |
||
(b) | Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
management or other employees who have a significant
role in the registrants internal control over
financial reporting. |
