Within the 90 days prior

under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's
management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange
Act Rule 13a-14. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive
Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting

its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the
Company's periodic SEC filings. Subsequent to the date of their
evaluation, there were no significant changes in the Company's
