The Kentucky Agreed Settlement is an agreement between Kentucky and the tobacco industry that was reached in 1999. The settlement was created to settle a lawsuit brought by the state of Kentucky against the tobacco industry for damages it has caused. The settlement includes a fund of $246 million that is used to fund a variety of tobacco prevention and control initiatives, as well as a fund of $500 million to compensate individuals and organizations that have suffered from tobacco-related illness or economic harm. The settlement also sets out a number of other provisions, including provisions related to the sale of tobacco products, advertising restrictions, and public health initiatives. There are three different types of Kentucky Agreed Settlement: the Master Settlement Agreement (MSA), the Kentucky Tobacco Settlement Agreement (TSA), and the Kentucky Tobacco Settlement Program (KTP).
