Mischa Barton's ex-boyfriend Adam Spaw has agreed to a five-year restraining order and says he will not release an alleged sex tape of the actress.
Barton, a former star of US TV drama The O.C., began legal proceedings in March after she discovered that an explicit video of her, filmed without her consent, had been offered for sale.
According to court documents obtained by E!News, the court agreement requires that both Barton and Spaw "shall stay 100 or more yards away from each other, their residences, pets, vehicles, and places of employment, and shall have no contact directly or indirectly with each other, including, but not limited to, by telephone, social media, email and texts."
Additionally, the documents state that "Adam agrees not to directly or indirectly, or through any agent, sell, distribute, show, give away or assign in any way any intimate photos or videos of Mischa Barton. He further agrees that he has not to date done so nor attempted to do any of the foregoing."
However, the documents state that the signing of this agreement is not an admission by Spaw that he "possesses or attempted to sell any intimate photos or videos of Mischa Barton."
Barton's lawyer Lisa Bloom said in a statement: "I am pleased that we were able to block sale or distribution of the explicit images of Ms. Barton that were shopped around earlier this year.
"After months of litigation, we have reached a settlement that gives us everything we wanted: stay away orders, and a promise not to distribute or post the images, ever.
"Mischa fought this case for many months and her tenacity led to this victory. I am proud to represent her."
The 31-year-old actress previously spoke about the "pain and humiliation" she went through after finding out that the sex tape was being shopped around.
"This is a painful situation and my absolute worst fear was realised when I learned that someone I thought I loved and trusted was filming my most intimate and private moments without my consent, with hidden cameras.
"And then I learned something even worse - that someone is trying to sell these videos and make them public", she said.
