NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation:

The financial statements included in this Form 10-QSB have been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting solely of those which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 and the results of our operations and our cash flows for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

Service revenues are recognized over the contractual term of our customer contracts using the percentage-of-completion method based on costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs. Service revenues are first recognized when we have a signed contract from the customer, with fixed or determinable fees and for which collection of such fees is reasonably assured. Any change to recognized service revenues as a result of revisions to estimated total costs are recognized in the period the estimate changes. Direct and incremental costs incurred at the outset of an arrangement that are directly related to a customer contract are deferred, so long as their recoverability from that contract is probable. Deferred costs are expensed upon recognition of revenue associated with the contract.

Note 2 - Earnings Per Share:

Basic earnings per common share for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was calculated based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of our common stock, $0.00025 par value, outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was calculated based upon net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the period, adjusted for dilutive securities using the treasury method.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

As of June 30 2002, 152,000 stock options have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share as they are antidilutive. As of June 30, 2003, there were no stock options that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share as they are all dilutive.

Note 3 – Stock-Based Compensation:

At June 30, 2003, we have one stock-based employee compensation plan. We account for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Related Interpretations.” No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended by FASB Statement No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure”, to account for stock-based employee compensation.

Note 4 - Long-term Debt:

On May 9, 2003, we renewed and amended our agreement with Wachovia Bank, National Association. The renewed and amended agreement is for a committed line of credit of $2,000,000, collateralized by our assets. Interest is payable at Wachovia Bank’s prime rate. The agreement requires us, among other things, to maintain a debt service coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.00, measured annually and a liquidity ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1.00 at all times. The committed line of credit matures June 30, 2004 and may be renewed on an annual basis. At June 30, 2003, we had no borrowings under the committed line of credit.

On October 1, 2001, we acquired effective control of the Intelligent Imaging™ business unit of Quintiles, Inc., a North Carolina corporation, referred to as Quintiles, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Quintiles Transnational Corporation. The acquisition of Intelligent Imaging closed on October 25, 2001. In connection with the acquisition of Intelligent Imaging, as of February 1, 2002, we are obligated to pay quarterly payments of principal of $41,667 under a note, referred to as the Quintiles Note, plus accrued interest thereon, and one payment of principal of $500,000 on November 1, 2004, unless the Quintiles Note is previously converted into shares of our common stock. The Quintiles Note bears interest at the rate in effect on the business day immediately prior to the date on which payments are due under the Quintiles Note equal to the three-month LIBOR (London Interbank Offering Rate) as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal plus 3%, compounded annually based on a 365-day year. We have recorded $166,667 as a current liability, representing the August 1, 2003, November 1, 2003, February 1, 2004 and May 1, 2004 quarterly installments of principal.

The number of shares of our common stock into which the Quintiles Note may be converted is calculated by dividing the outstanding principal balance of the Quintiles Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, by the greater of: (i) 75% of the average closing price of our common stock over the ten consecutive trading days ending prior to the date of conversion; or (ii) $0.906 per share. At June 30, 2003, the Quintiles Note would have been convertible into 185,208 shares of our common stock. This was calculated by dividing the unpaid principal balance ($750,000 as of June 30, 2003) plus accrued interest ( $7,500 as of June 30, 2003), totaling $757,500, by $4.09 (75% of the average closing price of our common stock over the ten consecutive trading days ending on June 30, 2003).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

Note 5 - Income Tax Provision:

Our income tax provision of $233,995 primarily relates to an accrual for estimated federal and state income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2003. We have no remaining net operating loss carryforward in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, a portion of the federal income tax provision has been offset by a reduction in our valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the net deferred income tax assets, recorded as of June 30, 2003, will be realized in the future.

We account for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” SFAS No. 109 requires the use of the liability method where deferred taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities at currently enacted tax laws and rates. We recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be received.

Note 6 - Significant Event:

In connection with the acquisition of Intelligent Imaging, we were required to make an additional payment to Quintiles if we achieved certain financial results subsequent to the acquisition. On February 18, 2003, we satisfied this obligation to Quintiles through the issuance of 188,549 shares of our common stock. At December 31, 2002, the additional consideration of $567,722 was classified on our balance sheet as a long-term liability. As a result of our issuance of the 188,549 shares of our common stock, the long-term liability has been satisfied and we have reflected the issuance of the common stock with a $567,722 increase to stockholders’ equity

Item 2.    Ma nagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview                                                        

We are a pharmaceutical contract service organization, providing services that support the product development process of the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries. We specialize in assisting our clients in the design and management of the medical-imaging component of clinical trials for all imaging modalities, including computerized tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, x-rays, dual energy x-ray absorptiometry, position emission tomography single photon emission computerized tomography and ultrasound. We provide services which include the processing and analysis of medical images and the data-basing and regulatory submission of medical images, quantitative data and text. We offer a service called Bio-Imaging ETCSM, which focuses on education, training and certification for medical imaging equipment, facilities and staff.

Our sales cycle (the period from the presentation by us to a potential client to the engagement of us by such client) has historically been 12 months but is shortening as the awareness of these services increases and regulatory guidelines become better defined. In addition, the contracts under which we perform services typically cover a period of 12 to 60 months and the volume and type of services performed by us generally vary during the course of a project. No assurance can be made that our project revenues will remain at levels sufficient to maintain profitability. Service revenues were generated from 53 clients encompassing 130 distinct projects for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This compares to 56 clients encompassing 142 distinct projects for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in the number of clients and projects is primarily due to our sales and marketing efforts being focused on larger average value contracts.

Our contracted/committed backlog, referred to as Backlog, the amount of service revenue that remains to be earned and recognized on both signed and agreed to contracts, was approximately $37.9 million as of June 30, 2003. This compares to approximately $34.6 million as of June 30, 2002, an increase of 9.4%. Such contracts included in Backlog are subject to termination by our clients at any time. In the event that a contract is cancelled by the client, we would be entitled to receive payment for all services performed up to the cancellation date. The duration of the projects included in our Backlog range from less than 3 months to 7 years. We do not believe that Backlog is a reliable predictor of near-term results because service revenues may be incurred in a given period on contracts that were not included in the previous reporting period’s Backlog and/or contract cancellations may occur in a given period on contracts that were included in the previous reporting period’s Backlog.

We believe that demand for our services and technologies will continue to grow as the use of digital technologies for data acquisition and management increases in the radiology and drug development communities. We also believe that there is a growing recognition within the bio-pharmaceutical industry of the advantages in using an independent centralized core

laboratory for analysis of medical-imaging data and compliance with the regulatory demands for the submission of such data. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration is gaining experience with electronic submissions and is continuing to develop sophisticated guidelines for computerized submission of clinical trial data, including medical images. Furthermore, the increased use of digital medical images in clinical trials, especially for important drug classes such as anti-inflammatory, neurologic and oncologic therapeutics and diagnostic image agents, generate large amounts of image data from a large number of imaging sources. Such studies require processing, analysis, data management and submission services best handled by vendors with scalable logistical capabilities and extensive experience working with research facilities worldwide. Due to several factors, including, without limitation, competition from commercial competitors and academic research centers, there can be no assurance that demand for our services and technologies will grow, sustain growth, or that additional revenue generating opportunities will be realized by us.

Certain matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB are “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may be identified by, among other things, the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” or “anticipates” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. In particular, our statements regarding the demand for our services and technologies, growing recognition for the use of independent centralized core laboratories, trends toward the outsourcing of imaging services in clinical trials, realized return from our marketing efforts and increased use of digital medical images in clinical trials are examples of such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the timing of revenues due to the variability in size, scope and duration of projects, estimates made by management with respect to our critical accounting policies, regulatory delays, clinical study results which lead to reductions or cancellations of projects, and other factors, including general economic conditions and regulatory developments, not within our control. The factors discussed in this Form 10-QSB and expressed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the risk factors set forth in our most recent Form 10-KSB, could cause actual results and developments to be materially different from those expressed in or implied by such statements. The forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this filing and we undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

Service revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $10,460,470 and $8,257,564, respectively, an increase of $2,202,906 or 26.7%. The increase in service revenues was due to an increase in the dollar value of projects resulting from the overall market growth for medical imaging related services for clinical trials and what we believe to be our increasing market share.

Service revenues were generated from 53 clients encompassing 130 distinct projects for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This compares to 56 clients encompassing 142 distinct projects for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in the number of clients and projects is primarily due to our sales and marketing efforts being focused on larger average value contracts. One client encompassing four projects represented 13.3% of our service revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003, while for the comparable period last year, one client encompassing four projects represented 15.6% of our service revenues. No other client accounted for more than 10% of service revenues in each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Service revenues generated from our client base, while still concentrated as measured by the number of clients, has continued to become more dispersed over time and we

Table of Contents

believe more diversification is evident when revenue concentration is measured by the number of individual projects. We believe that measuring revenue concentration by project diversification may be more indicative of revenue concentration risk since we are often working on several separately-based and funded projects with a single client, with each project often being wholly independent from the others. Our primary scope of work in both periods included medical-imaging core laboratory services and image-based information management services.

Reimbursement revenues consist of pass-through costs reimbursed by the customer. Reimbursement revenues fluctuate significantly over the course of any given project and quarter to quarter variations are a reflection of this project timing. Therefore, our management believes that reimbursement revenues are not a significant indicator of our overall performance trends.

Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $8,076,035 and $6,952,400, respectively, an increase of $1,123,635 or 16.1%. Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and six months ended June 30, 2002 were comprised of professional salaries and benefits, allocated overhead and pass-through costs. The increase in cost of revenues is primarily attributable to an increase in staffing levels required for project related tasks for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

The decrease in cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues to 68.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from 70.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 is primarily attributable to our increase in total revenues with a lesser increase in costs associated with project related costs. The cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues also fluctuates due to work-flow variations in the utilization of staff and the mix of services provided by us in any given period.

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $1,911,212 and $1,282,493, respectively, an increase of $628,719 or 49.0%. General and administrative expenses in each of the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 consisted primarily of professional salaries and benefits, depreciation and amortization, professional and consulting services, office rent and corporate insurance. The increase during the six months ended June 30, 2003 from the six months ended June 30, 2002, is primarily attributable to an increase in personnel, including the addition of certain management positions, to support the growth in our service revenues, as well as an increase in professional services associated with general corporate matters including increased legal, accounting, and regulatory compliance demands on public companies.

The increase in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues to 16.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from 13.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 is primarily due to an increase in personnel to support the growth in our service revenues as well as an increase in our professional service fees.

Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $981,199 and $855,670, respectively, an increase of $125,529 or 14.7%. Sales and marketing expenses in each of the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 were comprised of direct sales and marketing costs, professional salaries and benefits and allocated overhead. This increase is primarily due to higher marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, as well as higher sales commission commensurate with the increase in service revenue during this period.

Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues of 8.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 8.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 did not fluctuate significantly. The sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues fluctuate primarily due to marketing expenditures and trade show expenses.

Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $70,373 and $50,081, respectively, an increase of $20,292 or 40.5%. This increase is primarily due to interest expense incurred on additional equipment lease obligations in the six months ended June 30, 2003. Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 resulted from interest expense incurred on equipment lease obligations and the promissory note issued by us to Quintiles, Inc referred to as the Quintiles Note.

Our income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $233,995 and $71,763, respectively, an increase of $162,232 or 226.1%. The increase is the result of higher income before tax and the diminishing levels of state and federal net operating losses available to us. We have no remaining net operating loss carry forwards in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, a portion of the federal income tax provision has been offset by a reduction in our valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset. We believe that it is more likely than not that the net deferred income tax asset, recorded as of June 30, 2003, will be realized in the future.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $601,088 and $587,871, respectively, an increase of $13,217 or 2.2%. This increase in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was primarily attributable to the increased revenues associated with an increase in services performed on projects for which we were contracted offset, in part, by the costs associated with increased staffing levels necessary to perform the newly contracted services, and an increase in our income tax provision.

The decrease in net income as a percentage of total revenues to 5.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from 6.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 is primarily due to the $233,995 income tax provision included in the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the $71,763 income tax provision included in the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Service revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $5,363,768 and $4,384,719, respectively, an increase of $979,049 or 22.3%. The increase in service revenues was due to an increase in the dollar value of projects resulting from the overall market growth for medical imaging related services for clinical trials and what we believe to be our increasing market share.

Service revenues were generated from 50 clients encompassing 118 distinct projects for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This compares to 54 clients encompassing 126 distinct projects for the three months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in the number of clients and projects is primarily due to our sales and marketing efforts being focused on larger average value contracts. One client encompassing four projects represented 12.0% of our service revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003, while for the comparable period last year, two clients encompassing eight projects represented 22.1% of our service revenues. No other client accounted for more than 10% of service revenues in each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Service revenues generated from our client base, while still concentrated as measured by the number of clients, has continued to become more dispersed over time and we believe more diversification is evident when revenue concentration is measured by the number of individual projects.

direct sales and marketing costs, professional salaries and benefits and allocated overhead. This increase is primarily due to higher marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from the three months ended June 30, 2002, as well as higher sales commission commensurate with the increase in service revenue during this period.

The decrease in sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues to 8.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 8.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 did not fluctuate significantly. The sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues fluctuate primarily due to marketing expenditures and trade show expenses.

Net interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $42,986 and $31,448, respectively, an increase of $11,538 or 36.7%. This increase is primarily due to interest expense incurred on additional equipment lease obligations in the three months ended June 30, 2003. Net interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 resulted from interest expense incurred on equipment lease obligations and the Quintiles Note.

Our income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $123,995 and $49,292, respectively, an increase of $74,703 or 151.6%. The increase is the result of higher income before tax and the diminishing levels of state and federal net operating losses available to us. We have no remaining net operating loss carry forwards in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. During the three months ended June 30, 2003, a portion of the federal income tax provision has been offset by a reduction in our valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset. We believe that it is more likely than not that the net deferred income tax asset, recorded as of June 30, 2003, will be realized in the future.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was $344,526 and $291,101, respectively, an increase of $53,425 or 18.4%. This increase in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was primarily attributable to the increased revenues associated with an increase in services performed on projects for which we were contracted offset, in part, by the costs associated with increased staffing levels necessary to perform the newly contracted services, an increase in personnel and professional service fees and an increase in our income tax provision.

The decrease in net income as a percentage of total revenues to 5.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 5.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 is primarily due to the $123,995 income tax provision included in the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the $49,292 income tax provision included in the three months ended June 30, 2002.

At June 30, 2003, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,493,749. Working capital at June 30, 2003 was $1,586,226.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2003 includes net income of $601,088, an adjustment to reflect $488,305 of non-cash depreciation and amortization charges and reflects the impact of changes in certain of our operating assets and liabilities, such as, an increase of $897,257 in deferred revenue and $171,530 in accounts payable, offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $252,979, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $169,338.

Net cash used in investing activities represents our investment in capital and leasehold improvements. We currently anticipate that capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal year ending December 31, 2003 will be approximately $500,000. These expenditures represent additional upgrades in our networking, data storage and core laboratory capabilities for both the United States and European operations.

Net cash used in financing activities is primarily due to payments under the Quintiles Note and equipment lease obligations offset by proceeds from employee exercise of stock options.

On May 9, 2003, we renewed and amended our agreement with Wachovia Bank, National Association. The renewed and amended agreement is for a committed line of credit of $2,000,000, collateralized by our assets. Interest is payable at Wachovia Bank’s prime rate. The agreement requires us, among other things, to maintain a debt service coverage ratio not less than 1.25 to 1.00, measured annually and a liquidity ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1.00 at all times. The committed line of credit matures June 30, 2004 and may be renewed on an annual basis. At June 30, 2003, we had no borrowings under the committed line of credit.

In connection with our acquisition of Intelligent Imaging, as of February 1, 2002, we are obligated to pay quarterly payments of principal of $41,667 under the Quintiles Note, plus accrued interest thereon, and one payment of principal of $500,000 on November 1, 2004, unless the Quintiles Note is previously converted into shares of our common stock. The Quintiles Note bears interest at the rate in effect on the business day immediately prior to the date on which payments are due under the Quintiles Note equal to the three-month LIBOR as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal plus 3%, compounded annually based on a 365-day year. We have recorded $166,667 as a current liability, representing the August 1, 2003, November 1, 2003, February 1, 2004 and May 1, 2004 quarterly installments of principal.

We have neither paid nor declared dividends on our common stock since our inception and do not plan to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that are likely to affect liquidity or the availability of or requirements for capital resources.

We anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2003, together with anticipated cash from operations, will be sufficient to fund current working capital needs and

capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. There can be no assurance, however, that our operating results will continue to achieve profitability on an annual basis in the future. The inherent operational risks associated with: (i) our ability to gain new client contracts; (ii) the variability of the timing of payments on existing client contracts; and (iii) other changes in our operating assets and liabilities, may have a material adverse affect on our future liquidity.

We may seek to raise additional capital in the foreseeable future from equity or debt sources in order to: (i) provide additional working capital to implement our business, sales or marketing plans; (ii) take advantage of unanticipated opportunities (such as more rapid expansion, acquisitions of complementary businesses or the development of new services); (iii) react to unforeseen difficulties (such as the decrease in the demand for our services or the timing of revenues due to a variety of factors previously discussed); or (iv) otherwise respond to unanticipated competitive pressures. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available, if at all, on terms acceptable to us.

Our fiscal 2003 operating plan contains assumptions regarding revenue and expenses. The achievement of our operating plan depends heavily on the timing of work performed by us on existing projects and our ability to gain and perform work on new projects. Project cancellation, or delays in the timing of work performed by us on existing projects or our inability to gain and perform work on new projects could have an adverse impact on our ability to execute our operating plan and maintain adequate cash flow. In the event actual results do not meet the operating plan, our management believes it could execute contingency plans to mitigate such effects. Such plans include additional financing, to the extent available, through the line of credit discussed above. Considering the cash on hand and based on the achievement of the operating plan and management’s actions taken to date, management believes it has the ability to continue to generate sufficient cash to satisfy our operating requirements in the normal course of business. However, no assurance can be given that sufficient cash will be generated from operations.

Changes to Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. As of June 30, 2003, there have been no changes to such critical accounting policies and estimates.

Item 3.    Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2003. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of June 30, 2003, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to our chief executive officer and chief financial officer by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report was being prepared and (2) effective, in that they provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2003 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
