2 PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Shareholders Blue Valley Ban Corp Overland Park, Kansas 66225 We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Blue Valley Ban Corp as of June 30, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and the consolidated statements of stockholders' equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 13, 2004 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. /s/ BKD, LLP Kansas City, Missouri July 25, 2004 3 BLUE VALLEY BAN CORP CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS JUNE 30, 2004 AND DECEMBER 31, 2003 (dollars in thousands, except share data) ASSETS

See Accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. 8 BLUE VALLEY BAN CORP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 AND 2003 (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2004, and the consolidated results of its operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2003 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain reclassifications to prior year amounts have been made to conform to current year presentation. The results of operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company applies Accounting Principles Board No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its stock option plan and no compensation cost has been recognized. Pro forma compensation costs for the Company's plan are determined based on the fair value at the option grant dates using the minimum value method under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation." During the period ended June 30, 2004, the Company issued no stock options; consequently, reported and pro forma net income were identical. During the period ended June 30, 2004, the Company applied the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation 46 (Revised), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, to its trust preferred securities. The primary impact of this change was to report the Company's subordinated debt to the trust on the face of the accompanying balance sheet rather than the minority interest in the trust, as previously presented. This change has been made for all periods presented. This change did not have a material impact on the Company's total assets, liabilities, stockholders' equity or results of operations. The report of BKD, LLP commenting upon their review accompanies the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I. NOTE 2: EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average common shares and all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of per share earnings for the three and six-months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is as follows: See Accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. 9 BLUE VALLEY BAN CORP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 AND 2003 (UNAUDITED)

See Accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. 11 BLUE VALLEY BAN CORP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 AND 2003 (UNAUDITED) NOTE 4: DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS As a strategy to reduce the exposure to the risk of changes in future cash flows due to interest rate fluctuations, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement for a portion of its floating rate debt (see Note 3). The agreement provides for the Company to receive interest from the counterparty at the note's variable rate and to pay interest to the counterparty at a fixed rate of 5.45% on the notional amount over the term of the note. Under the agreement, the Company pays or receives the net interest amount quarterly, with the quarterly settlements included in interest expense. Management has designated the interest rate swap agreement as a cash flow hedging instrument. The hedge was fully effective through June 30, 2004. Under the cash flow hedging method, the effective portion of the gain or loss related to the derivative is recognized as a component of other comprehensive income. The ineffective portion, if any, is recognized in current earnings. See Accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. 12 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for purposes of those safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, can generally be identified by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions. The Company is unable to predict the actual results of its future plans or strategies with certainty. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the operations and future prospects of the Company include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in market rates of interest and loan and deposit pricing; a deterioration of general economic conditions or the demand for housing in the Company's market areas; a deterioration in the demand for mortgage financing; legislative or regulatory changes; adverse developments in the Company's loan or investment portfolio; any inability to obtain funding on favorable terms; the loss of key personnel; significant increases in competition; and the possible dilutive effect of potential acquisitions or expansions. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. GENERAL CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Our critical accounting policies are largely proscribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. After a review of our policies, we determined that accounting for the allowance for loan losses, income taxes, and stock-based compensation are deemed critical accounting policies because of the valuation techniques used, and the sensitivity of these financial statement amounts to the methods, as well as the assumptions and estimates underlying these balances. Accounting for these critical areas requires the most subjective and complex judgments that could be subject to revision as new information becomes available. There have not been any material changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2003. Further description of our critical accounting policies can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, was $681,000, compared to net income of $1.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, representing a decrease of $946,000, or 58.15%. Diluted earnings per share decreased 59.16% to $0.29 during the second quarter of 2004 from $0.71 in the same period of 2003. The Company's annualized return on average assets and average stockholders' equity for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 were 0.43% and 6.64%, compared to 1.07% and 17.59%, respectively, for the same period in 2003, decreases of 59.82% and 62.26%, respectively. The principal contributing factors to our decrease in net income in the current year second quarter from the prior year were a decrease in net interest income resulting from lower yields on earnings 13 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS assets and a decrease in non-interest income resulting from a decline in loans held for sale fee income. The strong demand for residential mortgage loan originations, particularly refinancing, experienced by the Company since 2001 decelerated as mortgage interest rates rose during the second half of 2003. The effects of lower mortgage origination volume continued into the second quarter of 2004 and had an adverse impact on our net income. Six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $1.4 million, compared to net income of $3.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, representing a decrease of $2.0 million, or 59.13%. Diluted earnings per share decreased 60.14% to $0.59 during the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $1.48 in the same period of 2003. The Company's annualized return on average assets and average stockholders' equity for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 were 0.45% and 6.85%, compared to 1.15% and 18.86%, respectively, for the same period in 2003, decreases of 60.87% and 63.68%, respectively. The principal contributing factors to our decrease in net income from the six months ended June 30, 2003 to the current year were a decrease in non-interest income, specifically loans held for sale fee income, and a decrease in net interest income resulting from a change in the mix of earning assets. NET INTEREST INCOME Fully tax equivalent (FTE) net interest income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $4.1 million, a decrease of $368,000 or 8.24%, from $4.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003. FTE interest income for the current year second quarter was $7.5 million, a decrease of $384,000, or 4.87%, from $7.9 million in the prior year second quarter. This decrease was primarily a result of an overall decrease in yields on earning assets. Yields on average earning assets declined from the second quarter of 2003 to the current period by 41 basis points to 5.14% in the second quarter of 2003, compared to 5.55% in the prior year second quarter. The 41 basis point decrease in yield resulted primarily from a change in the mix of earning assets coupled with decreases in market interest rates during 2003 and the impact of the low interest rates on new and repriced assets during 2003 and 2004. Partially offsetting the decrease in yield on average earning assets was a $16.3 million, or 2.85%, increase in average earning assets. Interest expense for the current year second quarter was $3.4 million, unchanged from $3.4 million in the prior year second quarter. The rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities declined 13 basis points to 2.67% during the quarter ended June 30, 2004 compared to 2.80% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The primary cause for this decline was the overall decline in market interest rates and the impact of the low interest rates on new and repriced liabilities during 2003 and 2004. The effect of this decline was offset by an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. For the current year second quarter, average interest-bearing deposits increased by $27.5 million, or 7.40% from the prior year while other interest-bearing liabilities, comprised of short-term borrowings and long-term debt, decreased by $6.5 million or 5.40% from the prior year. FTE net interest income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $8.3 million, a decrease of $712,000 or 7.89%, from $9.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. 14 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FTE interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $15.1 million, a decrease of $490,000, or 3.14%, from $15.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This decrease primarily resulted from a change in the mix of earning assets as well as lower yields on average earning assets. The yield on average earning assets declined 40 basis points to 5.25% for the first six months of 2004, compared to 5.65% for the first six months of 2003. The 40 basis point decrease in yield resulted primarily from decreases in market interest rates during 2003 and the impact of the low interest rates on new and repriced assets during 2003 and 2004. Partially offsetting the decrease in yield was an increase in average earning asset volume. Average earning asset volume increased from June 30, 2003 to the current period by $20.1 million, or 3.60%. Interest expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 was $6.8 million, an increase of $222,000, or 3.37%, from $6.6 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase is attributable to an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $40.6 million, or 11.45% from the prior year while other interest-bearing liabilities, comprised of short-term borrowings and long-term debt, decreased by $9.3 million or 7.64%. Partially offsetting the effect of increased average interest-bearing liabilities was a decline in rates paid on average interest-bearing liabilities during the first six months of 2004. The primary cause for this decline was the overall decline in market interest rates and the impact of low interest rates on new and repriced liabilities during 2003 and 2004. The rate paid on total average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 10 basis points to 2.69% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 compared to 2.79% during the same period in 2003. Average Balance Sheets. The following table sets forth, for the periods and as of the dates indicated, information regarding our average balances of assets and liabilities as well as the dollar amounts of FTE interest income from interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant yields or costs. Ratio, yield and rate information are based on average daily balances where available; otherwise, average monthly balances have been used. Nonaccrual loans are included in the calculation of average balances for loans for the periods indicated. 15 ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2004 was $300,000, compared to $600,000 for the same period of 2003. For the six-months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the provision was $650,000 and $1.2 million, respectively. The decrease in the provision for loan losses recorded in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same periods in the prior year was the result of improvements in the overall credit exposure in the loan portfolio. The Company's credit administration function performs monthly analyses on the loan portfolio to assess and report on risk levels, delinquencies, an internal ranking system and overall credit exposure. Management and the Board of Directors reviews the allowance for loan losses monthly, considering such factors as current and projected economic conditions, loan growth, the composition of the loan portfolio, loan trends and classifications, and other factors. We make provisions for loan losses in amounts that management deems necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level. NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income decreased $2.5 million, or 37.89%, to $4.1 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2004, from $6.6 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2003. Non-interest income for the six-months ended June 30, 2004 was $7.5 million, a decrease of $4.8 million, or 38.93%, from $12.3 million for the six-months ended June 30, 2003. These decreases are attributable primarily to decreases in loans held for sale fee income. Loans held for sale fee income decreased $2.5 million, or 42.55%, and $5.1 million, or 46.52%, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively. During 2002 and the first half of 2003, we experienced significant growth in our loans held for sale fee income due to the expansion of our National and Local mortgage divisions concurrent with a relatively low interest rate environment. The low interest rate environment resulted in a surge of mortgage refinancing activity. However, during the second half of 2003 and early in the first half of 2004, mortgage interest rates increased causing a decline in the volume of mortgage origination activity, particularly refinancing volume. During the second quarter of 2004, the Company recorded an $82,000 charge for an other-than-temporary impairment on an equity investment. In addition, during the first quarter of 2004, we took advantage of opportunities to mitigate the risk of longer-term rate volatility in our available-for-sale investment portfolio and sold approximately $6 million of available-for-sale investment securities and realized $215,000 in gains on the sales. 18 ITEM 2.

Non-interest expense decreased to $6.9 million, or 12.06%, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 and to $13.1 million, or 10.88%, during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, from $7.9 million and $14.7 million in the prior year periods, respectively. These decreases are attributable primarily to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense which decreased $900,000, or 16.66%, during the second quarter of 2004 and $1.7 million, or 16.61%, during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, compared to the prior year periods. Salaries and employee benefits expense decreased due to decreased volume-based incentive compensation in our mortgage operations. We had 277 full-time equivalent employees at June 30, 2004 compared to 296 at June 30, 2003. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets for the Company at June 30, 2004, were $637.4 million, an increase of $10.3 million, or 1.63%, compared to $627.1 million at December 31, 2003. Deposits and stockholders' equity at June 30, 2004, were $479.0 million and $41.4 million, respectively, compared with $470.5 million and $40.2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2003, increases of $8.5 million, or 1.80%, and $1.2 million, or 2.96%, respectively. Loans at June 30, 2004 totaled $456.2 million, reflecting an increase of $31.6 million, or 7.43%, compared to December 31, 2003. The loan to deposit ratio at June 30, 2004 was 93.69% compared to 88.75% at December 31, 2003. Mortgage loans held for sale at June 30, 2004 totaled $27.4 million, an increase of $9.1 million, or 49.69% compared to December 31, 2003. The Company's principal funding source for mortgage loans held for sale is deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Advance availability with the Federal Home Loan Bank is determined quarterly and at June 30, 2004, approximately $20.1 million was available. The Company's Federal Home Loan Bank advance availability fluctuates depending on levels of available collateral, which includes mortgage loans held for sale. Non-performing assets consist primarily of loans past due 90 days or more, nonaccrual loans and foreclosed real estate. The following table sets forth our non-performing assets as of the dates indicated: 19 ITEM 2.

As of June 30, 2004, non-performing loans equaled 1.13% of total loans, reflecting an increase in non-performing loans from December 31, 2003. Although total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2004 increased compared to December 31, 2003, the overall credit exposure in the Company's total loan portfolio continued to improve; consequently, the Company recorded a lower provision for loan losses during the six month period ending June 30, 2004 compared to the six month period ending June 30, 2003 The level of loans charged-off decreased during the second quarter of 2004, as evidenced by the decrease in our ratio of net charge-offs to average loans, to 0.14% for the period ending June 30, 2004 compared to 0.30% for the period ending December 31, 2003. We closely monitor non-performing credit relationships and our philosophy has been to value non-performing loans at their estimated collectible value and to aggressively manage these situations. Generally, the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses in excess of its non-performing 20 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS loans. As of June 30, 2004, our ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 142.86%.

21 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans decreased slightly to 1.62% as of June 30, 2004, compared to 1.66% at December 31, 2003. As of June 30, 2004, net charge-offs equaled 0.14% of average total loans on an annualized basis. Liquidity is measured by a financial institution's ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital, or the sale of marketable assets, such as residential mortgage loans or a portfolio of SBA loans. Other sources of liquidity, including cash flow from the repayment of loans, are also considered in determining whether liquidity is satisfactory. Liquidity is also achieved through growth of core deposits and liquid assets, and accessibility to the money and capital markets. The funds are used to meet deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements, fund loans and operate the organization. Core deposits, defined as demand deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, savings deposits and time deposits less than $100,000 (excluding brokered deposits), were 81.96% and 82.54% of our total deposits at June 30, 2004, and December 31, 2003, respectively. Generally, the Company's funding strategy is to utilize Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings to fund originations of mortgage loans held for sale and fund balances generated by other lines of business with deposits. In addition, the Company uses other forms of short-term borrowings for cash management and liquidity management purposes on a limited basis. These forms of borrowings include federal funds purchased and revolving lines of credit. The Company's Asset-Liability Management Committee utilizes a variety of liquidity monitoring tools, including an asset/liability modeling service, to analyze and manage the Company's liquidity. Management has established internal guidelines and analytical tools to measure liquid assets, alternative sources of liquidity, as well as relevant ratios concerning asset levels and purchased funds. These indicators are reported to the board of directors monthly, and at June 30, 2004, the Bank was within the established guidelines. At June 30, 2004, our total stockholders' equity was $41.4 million and our equity to asset ratio was 6.49%. At June 30, 2004, our Tier 1 capital ratio was 9.61% compared to 10.04% at December 31, 2003, while our total risk-based capital ratio was 11.88% compared to 12.41% at December 31, 2003. As of June 30, 2004, we had capital in excess of the requirements for a "well-capitalized" institution. 22 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK As a continuing part of our financial strategy, we attempt to manage the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on our net interest income. This effort entails providing a reasonable balance between interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and maintenance of yield. Our funds management policy is established by our Bank Board of Directors and monitored by our Asset/Liability Management Committee. Our funds management policy sets standards within which we are expected to operate. These standards include guidelines for exposure to interest rate fluctuations, liquidity, loan limits as a percentage of funding sources, exposure to correspondent banks and brokers, and reliance on non-core deposits. Our funds management policy also establishes the reporting requirements to our Bank Board of Directors. Our investment policy complements our funds management policy by establishing criteria by which we may purchase securities. These criteria include approved types of securities, brokerage sources, terms of investment, quality standards, and diversification. We use an asset/liability modeling service to analyze the Company's current sensitivity to instantaneous and permanent changes in interest rates. The system simulates the Company's asset and liability base and projects future net interest income results under several interest rate assumptions. This allows management to view how changes in interest rates will affect the spread between the yield received on assets and the cost of deposits and borrowed funds. The asset/liability modeling service is also used to analyze the net economic value of equity at risk under instantaneous shifts in interest rates. The "net economic value of equity at risk" is defined as the market value of assets less the market value of liabilities plus/minus the market value of any off-balance sheet positions. By effectively looking at the present value of all future cash flows on or off the balance sheet, the net economic value of equity modeling takes a longer-term view of interest rate risk. We strive to maintain a position such that current changes in interest rates will not affect net interest income or the economic value of equity by more than 5%, per 50 basis points. The following table sets forth the estimated percentage change in the Bank of Blue Valley's net interest income over the next twelve month period and net economic value of equity at risk at June 30, 2004 based on the indicated instantaneous and permanent changes in interest rates.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The above table indicates that, at June 30, 2004, in the event of a sudden and sustained increase in prevailing market rates, our net interest income would be expected to increase as our assets would be expected to reprice quicker than our liabilities, while a decrease in rates would indicate just the opposite. Generally, in the decreasing rate scenarios, not only would adjustable rate assets (loans) reprice to lower rates faster than our liabilities, but our liabilities - long-term Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka (FHLB) advances and existing time deposits - would not decrease in rate as much as market rates. In addition, fixed rate loans might experience an increase in prepayments, further decreasing yields on earning assets and causing net interest income to decrease. Another consideration with a rising interest rate scenario is the impact on mortgage loan refinancing, which would likely decline, leading to lower loans held for sale fee income, though the impact is difficult to quantify or project. The table also indicates that, at June 30, 2004, in the event of a sudden increase or decrease in prevailing market rates, the current net economic value of our equity would increase. Given our current asset/liability position, a 25, 50 or 75 basis point decline in interest rates will result in a higher economic value of our equity as the change in estimated gain on assets exceeds the change in estimated loss on liabilities in these interest rate scenarios. Currently, under a falling rate environment, the Company's estimated market value of loans could increase as a result of fixed rate loans, net of possible prepayments. The estimated market value of investment securities could also rise as our portfolio contains fixed-rate securities. However, the estimated market value increase in fixed rate loans and investment securities is partially offset by time deposits unable to reprice to lower rates immediately and fixed-rate callable advances from FHLB. The likelihood of advances being called in a decreasing rate environment is diminished resulting in the advances existing until final maturity, which has the effect of lowering the economic value of equity. 24 ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES In accordance with Item 307 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and within 90 days of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the "Certifying Officers") have conducted evaluations of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. As defined under Sections 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the term "disclosure controls and procedures" means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Certifying Officers have reviewed the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded that those disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In compliance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, (18 U.S.C. 1350), each of the Certifying Officers executed an Officer's Certification included in this Quarterly Report on 10-Q. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have not been any significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. 25 PART II: OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
