I
have reviewed the annual filings (as this term is defined in Multilateral
Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in
Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings) of Lorus (the “issuer”) for
the period ending May, 31, 2008;
|
2.
|
Based
on my knowledge, the annual filings do not contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or
that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the
circumstances under which it was made, with respect to the period covered
by the annual filings;
|
3.
|
Based
on my knowledge, the annual financial statements together with the other
financial information included in the annual filings fairly present in all
material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows of the issuer, as of the date and for the periods presented in the
annual filings;
|
4.
|
The
issuer’s other certifying officers and I are responsible for establishing
and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures and internal control
over the financial reporting for the issuer, and we
have:
|
|
(a)
|
designed
such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused them to be designed
under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance that material
information relating to the issuer, including its consolidated
subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities,
particularly during the period in which the annual filings are being
prepared;
|
|
(b)
|
designed
such internal control over financial reporting, or caused it to be
designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with the issuer’s GAAP;
and
|
|
(c)
|
evaluated
the effectiveness of the issuer’s disclosure controls and procedures as of
the end of the period covered by the annual filings and have caused the
issuer to disclose in the annual MD&A our conclusions about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of
the period covered by the annual filings based on such evaluation;
and
|
5.
|
I
have caused the issuer to disclose in the annual MD&A any change in
the issuer’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the issuer’s most recent interim period that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the issuer’s
internal control over financial
reporting.
