   The Federal Trade Commission having initiated an investigation of
   certain acts and practices of the respondent named in the caption
   hereof, and the respondent having been furnished thereafter with a

   proposed to present to the Commission for its consideration and which,
   if issued by the Commission, would charge respondent with violation of
   the Federal Trade Commission Act; and

   thereafter executed an agreement containing a consent order, an
   admission by the respondent of all the jurisdictional facts set forth
   in the aforesaid draft of complaint, a statement that the signing of

   other than jurisdictional facts, are true and waivers and other
   provisions as required by the Commission's Rules; and

   The Commission having thereafter considered the matter and having

                          HAVATAMPA, INC., a corporation.
    
                                 Docket No. C-3965
    
                                     COMPLAINT
    
       The Federal Trade Commission, having reason to believe that Havatampa,
       Inc., a corporation ("respondent"), has violated the provisions of the
       Federal Trade Commission Act, and it appearing to the Commission that
       this proceeding is in the public interest, alleges:
    
              1. Respondent Havatampa, Inc., is a Delaware corporation with
              its principal office or place of business at 3901 Riga
              Boulevard, Tampa, FL 33601.
    
              2. Respondent has manufactured, advertised, labeled, offered
              for sale, sold, and distributed products to the public,
              including cigars.
    
              3. The acts and practices of respondent alleged in this
              complaint have been in or affecting commerce, as "commerce" is
              defined in Section 4 of the Federal Trade Commission Act.
    
              4. In its advertising, labeling, and sale of cigars, respondent
              has failed to disclose that regular cigar smoking can cause
              several serious adverse health conditions including, but not
              limited to, cancers of the mouth (oral cavity), throat
              (esophagus and larynx), and lungs. These facts would be
              material to consumers in their purchase and use of the product.
              Respondent's failure to disclose these facts has caused or is
              likely to cause substantial injury to consumers that is not
              outweighed by countervailing benefits to consumers or
              competition and is not reasonably avoidable by consumers.
              Therefore, the failure to disclose these facts was, and is, an
              unfair or deceptive practice.
    
              5. The acts and practices of respondent as alleged in this
              complaint constitute unfair or deceptive acts or practices in
              or affecting commerce in violation of Section 5 of the Federal
              Trade Commission Act.

              2. Proposed respondent admits all the jurisdictional facts set
              forth in Paragraphs 1 through 3 of the draft complaint.
    
              3. Proposed respondent waives:
    
    
    
                    a. Any further procedural steps;
    
    
    
                    b. The requirement that the Commission's decision contain
                    a statement of findings of fact and conclusions of law;
                    and
    
    
    
                    c. All rights to seek judicial review or otherwise to
                    challenge or contest the validity of the order entered
                    pursuant to this agreement.
