Protection ("BCP") prepared and furnished to Respondents a draft Complaint. BCP proposed to 

present the draft Complaint to the Commission for its consideration. If issued by the 

Commission, the draft Complaint would charge the Respondents with violations of the Federal 

Trade Commission Act. 

Respondents and BCP thereaBer executed an Agreement Containing Consent Order 

("Consent Agreement"). The Consent Agreement includes: 1) statements by Respondents that 

they neither admit nor deny any of the allegations in the Complaint, except as specifically stated 

in this Decision and Order, and that only for purposes of this action, they admit the facts 

necessa1y to establish jurisdiction; and 2) waivers and other provisions as required by the 

Commission's Rules. 

The Commission considered the matter and detennined that it had reason to believe that 

Respondents have violated the Federal Trade Commission Act, and that a Complaint should 

issue stating its charges in that respect. The Commission accepted the executed Consent 

Agreement and placed it on the public record for a period of 30 days for the receipt and 

consideration of public comments. The Commission duly considered any comments received 

from interested persons pursuant to Section 2.34 of its Rules, 16 C.F.R. § 2.34. Now, in further 

confonnity with the procedure prescribed in Rule 2.34, the Commission issues its Complaint, 

makes the following Findings, and issues the following Order:
