the other party, its counsel and its accountants, during normal
business hours, reasonable access to the books, records and other data
of CD Promo or Tiberon, as the case may be, relating to the business of
CD Promo or Tiberon in their possession with respect to periods prior
to the Closing and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to
the extent that such access may be reasonably required by the
requesting party (a) to facilitate the investigation, litigation and
final disposition of any claims which may have been or may be made
against any party or its affiliates and (b) for any other reasonable
business purpose.
7.2 RECORD RETENTION. Each party agrees that for a period of not less than
five years following the Closing Date, such party shall not destroy or
otherwise dispose of any of the Books and Records of CD Promo or

Share Exchange Agreement - Page 23
7.3 POST-CLOSING ASSISTANCE. The CD Promo Shareholders on the one hand, and
Tiberon, on the other hand, will provide each other with such
assistance as may reasonably be requested in connection with the

requesting party with any records or information that may be reasonably
relevant to such return, audit or examination, proceedings or
determination. The party requesting assistance shall reimburse the
other party for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing
such assistance. Any information obtained pursuant to this SECTION 7.3

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act,

ARTICLE VIII
SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION
8.1 SURVIVAL OF AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Notwithstanding
any investigation conducted or notice or knowledge obtained by or on
behalf of any party hereto, each agreement in this Agreement shall
survive the Closing without limitation as to time until fully performed
and each representation and warranty in this Agreement or in the
Exhibits, Schedules or certificates delivered pursuant to this
Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of two years (other
than the representations and warranties contained in SECTION 3.5 which
shall survive the Closing without limitation as to time, and other than
the representations and warranties contained in SECTION 3.14, which
shall survive the Closing until the earlier of (i) three and one-half
years from the Closing Date and (ii) three years following the date on
which Tax files the Tax Return relating to the taxable period from
December 31, 1999 through the Closing Date). Notice must be given to
the party from whom indemnification is sought of any claim for
indemnification under Article VII prior to the termination of the
relevant survival period.
8.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY THE CD PROMO SHAREHOLDERS. From and after the
Closing Date, the CD Promo Shareholders agree jointly and severally, to
indemnify, hold harmless, protect and defend Tiberon and its affiliates
(and their respective directors, officers, agents and
Share Exchange Agreement - Page 24
employees, successors and assigns) in accordance with the provisions of
this Article 7 from and against:
(a) any and all damages incurred by any of them arising out of,
relating to or based upon or in connection with any inaccuracy
in, or breach of, any of the representations or warranties,
covenants or agreements of any of the CD Promo Shareholders or
CD Promo contained in or incorporated into this Agreement, in
the Schedules hereto or in certificates delivered pursuant to
this Agreement;
(b) any and all Taxes (other than to the extent such Taxes are
reflected in the CD Promo balance sheet included in the CD
Promo Financial Statements) imposed on CD Promo in respect of
its income, business, property or operations or for which CD
Promo may otherwise be liable for any period ending or deemed
to end prior to or on the date of the CD Promo Financial
Statements;
(c) any cost incurred by CD Promo in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
The right of the parties to be indemnified hereunder shall not be
limited or affected by any investigation conducted or notice or
knowledge obtained by or on behalf of any such persons.
8.3 TIBERON'S INDEMNITY. Tiberon shall indemnify the CD Promo Shareholders
and hold the CD Promo Shareholders harmless against and in respect of
any and all damages, losses, claims, penalties, liabilities, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, all fines, interest,
reasonable legal fees and expenses and amounts paid in settlement),
that arise from or relate or are attributable to (and without giving
effect to any tax benefit to the indemnified party) (a) any
misrepresentation by Tiberon or breach of any warranty by Tiberon in
this Agreement and (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement on the
part of Tiberon in this Agreement.
8.4 METHOD OF ASSERTING CLAIMS. The party making a claim under this Article
VIII is referred to as the "Indemnified Party" and the party against
whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is referred to as
the "Indemnifying Party". All claims by any Indemnified Party under
this Article VIII shall be asserted and resolved as follows:
(a) Whenever an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a claim for
which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified
Party hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall with reasonable
promptness notify in writing the Indemnifying Party of such
claim, identifying the representation or warranty on which
such claim is based, the basis for such claim or demand, and
the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then
determinable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the
final amount of such claim and demand; the "Claim Notice");
PROVIDED, that any failure to give a Claim Notice will not be
deemed a waiver of any
Share Exchange Agreement - Page 25
rights of the Indemnified Party except to the extent the
rights of the Indemnifying Party are actually prejudiced by
such failure. If the basis of such claim is a claim or demand
by a third party, the Indemnifying Party, upon request of the
Indemnified Party, shall retain counsel (who shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) to represent
the Indemnified Party and shall pay the reasonable fees and
disbursements of such counsel with regard thereto; PROVIDED,
that any Indemnified Party is hereby authorized prior to the
date on which it receives written notice from the Indemnifying
Party designating such counsel, to retain counsel, whose fees
and expenses shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party, to file any motion, answer or other pleading and take
such other action which it reasonably shall deem necessary to
protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party until
the date on which the Indemnified Party receives such notice
from the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Xxxxx
shall retain such counsel, the Indemnified Party shall have
the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified
Party unless (x) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified
Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such
counsel or (y) representation of both parties by the same
counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between them. The Indemnifying Party shall
not, in connection with any proceedings or related proceedings
in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses
of more than one such firm for the Indemnified Party (except
to the extent the Indemnified Party retained counsel to
protect its (or the Indemnifying Party's) rights prior to the
selection of counsel by the Indemnifying Party). If requested
by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to
cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in
contesting any claim or demand which the Indemnifying Party
defends. A claim or demand may not be settled by either party
without the prior written consent of the other party (which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld) unless, as part of
such settlement, the Indemnified Party shall receive a full
and unconditional release reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnifying Party.
(b) Whenever any Indemnified Party shall have a claim against any
Indemnifying Party hereunder which does not involve a claim or
demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from
it by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall send a Claim
Notice with respect to such claim to the Indemnifying Party.
(c) After delivery of a Claim Notice, so long as any right to
indemnification exists pursuant to this Article VIII, the
affected parties each agree to retain all Books and Records
related to such Claim Notice. In each instance, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to be kept fully
informed by the Indemnifying Party and its legal counsel with
respect to any legal proceedings. Any information or documents
made available to any party hereunder and designated as
confidential by the party providing such information or
documents and which is not otherwise generally available to
the public and not already within the knowledge of the party
to whom the information is provided (unless otherwise covered
by the confidentiality
Share Exchange Agreement - Page 26
provisions of any other agreement among the parties hereto, or
any of them), and except as may be required by applicable law,
shall not be disclosed to any third person (except for the
representatives of the party being provided with the
information, in which event the party being provided with the
information shall request its representatives not to disclose
any such information which it otherwise required hereunder to
be kept confidential).
8.5 GENERAL PROVISIONS. The following general provisions shall apply to any
claim for indemnification under this Article VIII:
(a) The amount of any claim subject to indemnification shall be
determined after taking into account the present value of any
tax benefits (net of tax detriments) accruing to the
Indemnified Party or any affiliate as a result of such claim.
(b) Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.5(b), with
respect to any breach, violation or nonfulfillment of or
default in the performance of any representation, warranty or
covenant of this Agreement for which a right to claim
indemnification is provided in this Article VIII, after the
Closing a claim or an action under and pursuant to the terms,
conditions and limitations of this Article VIII shall be the
sole and exclusive right and remedy of Tiberon and the CD
Promo Shareholders and neither Tiberon nor any CD Promo
Shareholder shall have any other claim, cause of action,
right, or remedy for such breach, violation, non-fulfillment
or default against the other based upon this Agreement, any
provision of any federal or state securities or other statute,
law, rule or regulation or based upon any other cause of
action arising at law or in equity; PROVIDED, that if for any
reason a court of competent -------- jurisdiction shall refuse
to enforce this provision, and shall permit Tiberon or the CD
Promo Shareholders to assert any action based other than upon
the right to claim indemnification as provided in this Article
VIII, Tiberon and the CD Promo Shareholders agree that the
amount of such other claim shall be subject to and limited by
the provisions of this Article VIII. The provisions of this
Section 8.5(b) shall not preclude the prosecution of any
action or proceeding based on fraud that, if found to exist,
would be sufficient to give rise to the right of rescission
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
ARTICLE IX
TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT
9.1 TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the
Closing as follows:
(a) by mutual written consent of Tiberon and the CD Promo
Shareholders;
(b) by Tiberon on the one hand, or by all of the CD Promo
Shareholders, on the other hand, by written notice to the
other party hereto, if the Closing shall not have
Share Exchange Agreement - Page 27
occurred on the date as established pursuant to SECTION 2.1
hereof (unless such event has been caused by a breach of this
Agreement by the party seeking such termination);
(c) by Tiberon or by all of the CD Promo Shareholders if a
Governmental or Regulatory Body has permanently enjoined or
prohibited consummation of the Share Exchange and such court
or government action is final and nonappealable;
(d) by Tiberon if the CD Promo Shareholders have failed to comply
in any material respect with any of its covenants or
agreements under this Agreement that are required to be
complied with prior to the date of such termination;
(e) by Tiberon for any reason whatsoever as provided by SECTION
5.1 hereof; or
(f) by the CD Promo Shareholders if Tiberon has failed to comply
in any material respect with any of its covenants or
agreements under this Agreement that are required to be
complied with prior to the date of such termination.
Should the CD Promo Shareholders terminate this Agreement for any
reason other than a default by Tiberon as described in SECTION 9.1(F)
hereof, the CD Promo Shareholders shall be jointly and severally liable
for all damages caused by the failure to close and not just the
expenses listed in SECTION 10.1 hereof. Should Tiberon terminate this
Agreement for any reason other than a default by the CD Promo
Shareholders as described in SECTION 9.1(D) hereof, or as allowed by
SECTION 5.1 hereof, then Tiberon shall be liable for all damages caused
by the failure to close and not just the expenses listed in SECTION
10.1. hereof.
9.2 SURVIVAL AFTER TERMINATION. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to
SECTION 9.1, (a) this Agreement shall become null and void and of no
further force and effect, except for the provisions of SECTION 5.1
relating to the obligation to keep confidential certain information and
(b) there shall be no liability on the part of CD Promo or Tiberon or
their respective affiliates.

of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation and take
such other action as Tiberon may reasonably deem necessary or
Share Exchange Agreement - Page 28
desirable in order to transfer, convey and assign the Shares to Tiberon
and to assist Tiberon in exercising all rights with respect thereto.

fulfillment of the conditions to the Closing, including, without
limitation, the execution and delivery of any document or other papers,
the execution and delivery of which are conditions precedent to the
Closing.

of the CD Promo Shareholders and Tiberon hereby irrevocably
submits to the jurisdiction of the arbitrator in Denver,

improper.
(b) The arbitral award shall be in writing and shall be final and
binding on each of the parties to this Agreement. The award
may include an award of costs, including reasonable attorneys'
fees and disbursements. Judgment upon the award may be entered

jurisdiction over the parties or their assets. Each of the CD

hereto is waiving any right that such party may have to a jury
trial with respect to the resolution of any dispute under this
Agreement or the agreements or transactions contemplated
hereby.

Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be made without
advance approval thereof by Tiberon and the CD Promo Shareholders
except as may be required by applicable law.

canceled, renewed or extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only
by a written instrument
Share Exchange Agreement - Page 30

compliance. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right,

void.

signed by all of the parties hereto.
10.11 EXHIBITS AND SCHEDULES. The Exhibits and Schedules are a part of this

provision of this Agreement or the application of such provision or any
portion thereof to any person or circumstance, shall be held invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining portion of such provision and the
