GENERAL PROVISIONS 1.1 Scope of Final Consent Judgment. The injunctive provisions of this Final Consent Judgment are entered pursuant to the Colorado Consumer Protection Act, 6-1-101, et seq. C.R.S. (2014) (CCPA). This Final Consent Judgment shall apply to DEFENDANTS SEABREEZE AIR, LLC, SEABREEZE AIR, QUALITY AIR, QUALITY AIR LLC, FRESH AIR, LLC, ANDRE SHATYKO AND ALEXANDER KURDYUKOV (collectively, DEFENDANTS), and any person under the direction or control of any DEFENDANT, including but not limited to any principals, officers, directors, agents, employees, representatives, successors, affiliates, subsidiaries, contractors, and assigns who has received actual notice of this Courts Order. 1.2 Release of Claims. The State of Colorado, ex rel. John W. Suthers, Attorney General (hereinafter the STATE), acknowledges by its execution hereof that this Final Consent Judgment constitutes a complete settlement and release of all claims under the CCPA on behalf of the STATE against the DEFENDANTS, their owners, employees and former employees, with respect to all claims, causes of action, damages, fines, costs, and penalties which were asserted or could have been asserted under the CCPA in the Complaint, that arose prior to this date and relating to or based upon the acts or practices which are the subject of the Complaint filed in this action. The STATE agrees that it shall not proceed with or institute any civil action or proceeding under the CCPA against the DEFENDANTS for any conduct or practice prior to the date of entry of this Final Consent Judgment which relates to the subject matter of the Complaint filed in this action. 1.3 Liability. Both parties are entering into this Final Consent Judgment for the purpose of compromising and resolving disputed claims and to avoid the expense of further litigation. 1.4 Preservation of Law Enforcement Action. Nothing herein precludes the STATE from enforcing the provisions of this Final Consent Judgment, or from pursuing any law enforcement action under the CCPA with respect to the acts or practices of the DEFENDANTS not covered by this lawsuit and Final Consent Judgment or any acts or practices of the DEFENDANTS conducted after the entry of this Final Consent Judgment. 1.5 Compliance with and Application of State Law. Nothing herein relieves the DEFENDANTS of their duty to comply with applicable laws of the State of Colorado nor constitutes authorization by the STATE for the DEFENDANTS to engage in acts and practices prohibited by such laws. This Final Consent Judgment shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado. A ATE TE rsuing uing ic ic t .

Nothing herein constitutes approval by the STATE of the DEFENDANTS past or future business practices. The DEFENDANTS shall not make any representation contrary to this paragraph. 1.7 Preservation of Private Claims and Relation to Private Settlements. Unless otherwise noted, nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver of any private rights, causes of action, or remedies of any person against the DEFENDANTS with respect to the acts and practices covered by this Final Consent Judgment. 1.8 Use of Settlement as Defense. The DEFENDANTS acknowledge that it is the STATEs customary position that an agreement restraining certain conduct on the part of a defendant does not prevent the STATE from addressing later conduct that could have been prohibited, but was not, in the earlier agreement, unless the earlier agreement expressly limited the STATEs enforcement options in that manner. Therefore, nothing herein shall be interpreted to prevent the STATE from taking enforcement action to address conduct occurring after the entry of this Final Consent Judgment that the STATE believes to be in violation of the law. The fact that such conduct was not expressly prohibited by the terms of this Final Consent Judgment shall not be a defense to any such enforcement action. 1.9 Use of Settlement in Business Activity. Under no circumstances shall this Final Consent Judgment or the name of the Attorney General or any of the STATEs employees or representatives be used by the DEFENDANTS or any person under their direction or control in any way that suggests an endorsement of DEFENDANTS conduct, past, present, or future. However, nothing in this paragraph shall prohibit the DEFENDANTS from otherwise commenting on or quoting this Final Consent Judgment, changes to their business practices or the resolution of this case. 1.10 Retention of Jurisdiction. This Court shall retain jurisdiction over this matter for the purpose of enabling any party to this Final Consent Judgment to apply to the Court at any time for any further orders which may be necessary or appropriate for the construction, modification or execution of this Final Consent Judgment, and for the enforcement of compliance herewith and the punishment of violations hereof. 1.11 Contempt. The parties understand and agree that a finding of any violation of any term or provision of this Final Consent Judgment may give rise to all contempt remedies available to the Court, including those provided under C.R.S 6-1-112(1)(b) and C.R.C.P.

The terms and provisions of this Final Consent Judgment may be enforced by the current Colorado Attorney General, and by any of his duly authorized agents or representatives, as well as by any of his successors in interest, and by any of his successors in interests agents or representatives. 1.15 Bankruptcy.
