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 copy of a draft of complaint which the Chicago Regional Office
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
The respondent and counsel for the Commission having 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 said agreement is for
settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by respondent that the law has
been violated as alleged in such complaint, or that the facts as alleged in such complaint, 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 determined that it
had reason to believe that the respondent has violated the said Act, and that complaint should
issue stating its charges in that respect, and having thereupon accepted the executed consent
agreement and placed such agreement on the public record for a period of sixty (60) days, and no
comments having been filed thereafter by interested parties pursuant to § 2.34 of its Rules, now
in further conformity with the procedure prescribed in §2.34 of its Rules, the Commission hereby
issues its complaint, makes the following jurisdictional findings and enters the following order:
1. Respondent Lyle R. Larson is an individual doing business as Momentum with his
principal office or place of business at 3033 127th Place SE, Suite I-21, Bellevue, Washington
