Defendants deny the allegations in the Complaint, except jurisdictional facts, but are willing to agree to the entry of the following Stipulated Final Order for Permanent Injunction and Settlement of Claims for Monetary Relief ("Order").

The Commission and defendants have stipulated to the entry of the following Order in settlement of the Commission's Complaint against defendants. The Court, being advised in the premises, finds:

3. The activities of defendants are in or affecting commerce, as defined in 15 U.S.C. § 44.

MONETARY RELIEF

VII.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that:

A. Defendants LPI, Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson jointly and severally shall pay to the Federal Trade Commission as consumer redress the sum of Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000.00) according to the following schedule: Not later than five (5) days after the date of entry of this Order, defendants LPI, Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson shall deposit by electronic funds transfer into an account to be established by the Federal Trade Commission for the purpose of receiving payments due under the provisions of this Order, the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,0000.00). Defendants LPI, Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson shall pay the balance of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) by depositing payments by electronic funds transfer into the account in ten Five Thousand Dollar ($5,000.00) installments as follows: Within 30 days after the entry of this Order, defendants LPI, Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson shall pay Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00). Thereafter, defendants LPI, Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson shall pay another Five Thousand Dollar ($5,000.00) installment before the end of each 30 day period that follows the previous installment's due date, until nine additional installments and the balance of Forty-Five Thousand Dollars ($45,000.00) have been paid within 300 days after entry of this Order. The unpaid balance of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) shall be secured by a non-interest bearing promissory note executed by defendants Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson in such amount in favor of the Federal Trade Commission. Such note, in the form attached hereto as Appendix A, shall be secured by the residence of Corinne and Steven Jacobson, located at 50 Via Burrone, Newport Coast, California 92657, subject only to the pre-existing security interest in favor of Washington Mutual filed of record in the public records of the County of Orange, California. Defendants LPI, Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson represent and acknowledge that the Federal Trade Commission is relying on the material representation that the asset pledged as security is encumbered only as set forth herein. The Federal Trade Commission is permitted to perfect a security interest in such collateral as permitted by law. In the event such security interest is found to be defective, after reasonable notice to defendants Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson, defendants Corinne and Steven Jacobson agree to cooperate with the Federal Trade Commission to cure any deficiencies in perfecting said security interest. Defendants agree that they shall not further encumber the security without the express prior written permission of the staff of the Federal Trade Commission. The Federal Trade Commission agrees to release said security interest upon full payment of the judgment. In the event of any default on any obligation to make payment under this Paragraph, interest, computed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1961(a), shall accrue from the date of default to the date of payment. In the event such default continues for ten (10) calendar days beyond the date the payment is due, the entire unpaid amount shall immediately become due and payable. Defendants LPI, Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson shall be jointly and severally liable for all payments required by this Paragraph and any interest on such payments. The payment under this Paragraph is intended to be compensatory in nature, and no portion of such payment shall be deemed a payment of any fine, penalty, or punitive assessment.
 
B. All funds paid pursuant to Paragraph A above shall be deposited into a fund administered by the Commission or its agent to be used for equitable relief, including but not limited to consumer redress and any attendant expenses for the administration of any redress fund. In the event that direct redress to consumers is wholly or partially impracticable or funds remain after redress is completed, the Commission may apply any remaining funds for such other equitable relief (including consumer information remedies) as it determines to be reasonably related to the defendants' practices alleged in the complaint. Any funds not used for such equitable relief shall be deposited to the United States Treasury as disgorgement. Defendants shall have no right to challenge the Commission's choice of remedies under this Paragraph.

RECORD KEEPING

VIII.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendants, for a period of five (5) years after the last date of dissemination of any representation covered by this Order, shall maintain and upon request make available to the Commission for inspection and copying:

A. All advertisements and promotional materials containing the representation;
 
B. All materials that were relied upon in disseminating the representation; and
 
C. All tests, reports, studies, surveys, demonstrations, or other evidence in their possession, custody, or control that contradict, qualify, or call into question the representation, or the basis relied upon for the representation, including complaints and other communications with consumers or with governmental entities or consumer protection organizations.

MONITORING

IX.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendants shall deliver a copy of this Order to each of defendants' current and future principals, officers, directors, and managers, and to all current and future employees, agents, and representatives having sales, advertising, or policy responsibility with respect to the subject matter of this Order, and shall secure from each such person a signed and dated statement acknowledging receipt of the Order. Defendants shall deliver this order to current personnel within thirty (30) days after the date of service of this Order, and to future personnel within thirty (30) days after the person assumes such position or responsibilities. Defendants shall maintain and upon request make available to the Commission for inspection and copying each such signed and dated statement.

X.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendant LPI shall notify the Commission at least thirty (30) days prior to any change in the corporation that may affect compliance obligations arising under this Order, including but not limited to a dissolution, assignment, sale, merger, or other action that would result in the emergence of a successor corporation; the creation or dissolution of a subsidiary, parent, or affiliate that engages in any acts or practices subject to this Order; the proposed filing of a bankruptcy petition; or a change in the corporate name or address. Provided, however, that, with respect to any proposed change in the corporation about which LPI learns less than thirty (30) days prior to the date such action is to take place, it shall notify the Commission as soon as is practicable after obtaining such knowledge.

XI.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendants Corinne Jacobson, Steven Jacobson, Sheri Grant, and James Grant, within five (5) business days of entry of this Order, shall notify the Commission of (1) their respective residence addresses and mailing addresses; (2) their respective telephone numbers; (3) the name, address, and telephone numbers of their respective employers; (4) the full names of their respective employers' principals; (5) if applicable, the names of their respective supervisors, and (6) a description of their respective employers' activities, and the defendants' respective duties and responsibilities.

XII.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendants Corinne Jacobson, Steven Jacobson, Sheri Grant, and James Grant, for a period of five (5) years after the date of service of this Order, shall notify the Commission of any changes in their respective residence or mailing addresses or employment status. Notice of changes in employment status shall include, for each respective defendant: (1) the new employer's name, address and telephone number; (2) if applicable, the full names of his or her supervisors and the people to whom he or she reports; and, (3) a description of the employer's activities, and the defendant's duties and responsibilities.

XIII.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendants shall, within sixty (60) calendar days after the date of entry of this Order, and at such other times as the Commission may require, file with the Commission a report, in writing, setting forth in detail the manner and form in which they have complied with this Order.

XIV.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Commission is authorized to monitor the compliance of defendants with this Order by all lawful means, including but not limited to the following means:

A. The Commission is authorized, without further leave of court, to obtain discovery from any person in the manner provided by Chapter V of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Fed. R. Civ. P. 26-37, including but not limited to the use of compulsory process pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 45, for the purpose of monitoring and investigating the compliance of defendants with this Order.
 
B. The Commission is authorized to use representatives posing as consumers and suppliers to defendants, to the defendants' employees, or to any other entity managed or controlled in whole or in part by defendants, without the necessity of identification or prior notice;
 
C. Nothing in this Order shall limit the Commission's lawful use of compulsory process, pursuant to Sections 9 and 20 of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 49, 57b-1, to investigate whether defendants have violated any provision of this Order or Sections 5 or 12 of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 45, 55.

RIGHT TO REOPEN

XV.

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND ORDERED that, within fifteen days after entry of this Order, defendants Corinne Jacobson and Steven Jacobson each shall submit to the Commission a truthful sworn statement, in the form shown on Appendix B, that shall acknowledge receipt of this Order and shall reaffirm and attest to the truth, accuracy and completeness of the financial statements previously submitted to the Commission. The Commission's agreement to this Order is expressly premised on the truthfulness, accuracy and completeness of such financial statements. If, upon motion by the Commission, the Court finds that the such financial statement contains any material misrepresentation or omission, the Commission may request that this Order be reopened to allow the Commission to modify the monetary liability of the defendants; provided, however, that in all other respect this Order shall remain in full force and effect unless otherwise ordered by the Court; and, provided further, that proceedings instituted under this provision would be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other civil or criminal remedies as may be provided by law, including any other proceedings that the Commission may initiate to enforce this Order. For purposes of this Paragraph XV, defendants waive any right to contest any of the allegations in the Complaint.
