B. Entry of this Order is in the public interest.

C. Monique Delgado has waived all rights to seek judicial review or otherwise challenge or contest the validity of this Order.

For purposes of this Order the following definitions apply:

A. "Multi-level marketing program" means any marketing strategy in which participants pay money to the program promoter in return for which program participants obtain the right to (1) recruit additional participants, or to have additional participants placed by the promoter or any other person into the program participant's downline, tree, cooperative, income center, or other similar program grouping; (2) sell goods or services; and (3) receive payment; PROVIDED the payments received by program participants are derived primarily from the sale or purchase of the goods or services, and not from recruiting additional participants nor having additional participants placed into the program participant's downline, tree, cooperative, income center, or other similar program grouping. For purposes of this Order, the phrase "goods or services" does not include a membership or opportunity to participate in another sales or marketing program.

B.

A limitation as to the number of persons who may participate, or the presence of additional conditions affecting eligibility for the above license or right to recruit or the receipt of profits therefrom, does not change the identity of the program as a chain or pyramid marketing program.
