ARBITRATION AND LITIGATION

This Arbitration Provision ("Provision" or "Arbitration Provision") facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any disputes that may arise between you and Reliant Holdings, Inc., a Pennsylvania Corporation d/b/a Horizon Card Services and/or d/b/a Freedom Gold Card and/or operating under any other trade name or d/b/a of Reliant Holdings, Inc. (hereinafter "us", "our", "Horizon" or "we" as appropriate). Arbitration is a form of private dispute-resolution in which persons with a dispute waive their rights to file a lawsuit, to proceed in court and to a jury trial, and instead submit their disputes to a neutral third person (an arbitrator) for a binding decision. You have the right to opt out of this Arbitration Provision if you follow the instructions set out in the paragraph titled "Right to Opt Out" below.

PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY. IT PROVIDES THAT, EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW, ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO (i) YOUR USE OR ATTEMPTED USE OF ANY WEBSITE OF OURS; (ii) THE TERMS & CONDITIONS/TERMS OF USE OF OUR WEBSITES; (iii) THE PRIVACY POLICY; (iv) ANY APPLICATIONS OR SUBMISSIONS FROM YOU TO US; (v) ANY TELEMARKETING OR OTHER CALL OR MESSAGE (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SMS/TEXT MESSAGES) YOU HAVE OR CLAIM TO HAVE RECEIVED FROM US OR ONE OF OUR PARTNERS;(vi) ANY E-MAIL YOU CLAIM TO HAVE RECEIVED FROM US OR ONE OF OUR PARTNERS; (vii) ANY ASPECT OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND US; (viii) THE CREDIT CARD CONTRACT AND/OR (ix) OR ANY OTHER DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN YOU AND US ( HEREINAFTER COLLECTIVELY KNOWN AS "CLAIM") SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. ARBITRATION REPLACES THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT. IN THE ABSENCE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, YOU AND WE MAY OTHERWISE HAVE HAD A RIGHT OR OPPORTUNITY TO BRING CLAIMS IN A COURT, BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND/OR TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BE REPRESENTED IN A CASE FILED IN COURT BY OTHERS (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLASS ACTIONS). EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED, ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY. YOU ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THE RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS DISCOVERY RIGHTS AND/OR THE RIGHT TO APPEAL ARE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION OR MAY NOT EXIST.

RIGHT TO OPT OUT: To opt out of this Arbitration Provision, you must mail a written notice to us so that it is postmarked no later than 45 days after the earliest in time of the following triggering events: (a) after your application, submission or purchase is initiated; (b) you consent to the Privacy Policy or Terms and Conditions; (c) your use or attempted use of any of our or our partners websites; (d) your submission of an application (whether partial, incomplete, complete or otherwise) to us; (e) your submission or providing express written consent to us to receive e-mail(s), telephone call(s) (including SMS/MMS/Text Messages) or to receive any other information from us or our partners; or (f) signing up for or inquiring about an offer, deal or promotion from us; or (g) activation of your membership. If we approve your application; you will receive an e-mail confirming your application approval. The application approval is your activation of membership date. If you opt out of this Arbitration Provision, you will retain your right to litigate your dispute in a court, either before a judge or jury. The opt out notice must include your name, address, and Account number, must be signed by you (or all of you if there is more than one Account holder) and must be mailed to us at: Horizon Card Services, Attn: Compliance Department PO Box 1275, Indiana, PA 15701. If your written notice is not postmarked within 45 days of the earliest triggering event listed above in this paragraph, your right to opt out will terminate, and you agree that the terms of this Provision will apply. Your decision to opt out of this Provision will not affect your other rights or responsibilities under this Credit Card Contract. If we later amend this Provision, we will let you know if you can opt out of that amendment and, if so, how you can do so.

Parties and Matters Subject to Arbitration: For purposes of this Provision, "we" and "us" include our employees, parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, beneficiaries, agents and assigns and other persons and entities you assert a Claim against in connection with a Claim you assert against us. "Claim" shall refer to claims of every kind and nature, including, but not limited to, initial claims, counterclaims, cross- claims and third-party claims. All Claims are subject to arbitration, regardless of legal theory and remedy sought, including, but not limited to, claims based in contract, tort (including negligence, intentional tort, fraud and fraud in the inducement), agency, statutory law (federal and state), administrative regulations or any other source of law (including equity). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the word "Claim" does not include any dispute or controversy about the validity, enforceability, coverage or scope of this Arbitration Provision or any part thereof; all such disputes or controversies are for a court and not an arbitrator to decide. However, any dispute or controversy that concerns the validity or enforceability of the Credit Card Contract as a whole is for the arbitrator, not a court, to decide.

Agreement to Arbitrate: Any Claim shall be resolved and settled exclusively and finally by binding arbitration, in accordance with this Provision. Binding arbitration shall not be required, however, for collection actions we bring in court if you default on your Credit Account as set forth in the Credit Card Contract. Furthermore, both you and we retain the right to pursue in a small claims court (or your state's equivalent court) any Claim that is within that court's jurisdiction, so long as the matter remains in such small claims court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. For any Claims covered by this Provision, a party who asserted a Claim in a lawsuit in small claims court may elect arbitration with respect to any Claim subsequently asserted in that or any related or unrelated lawsuit by any other party.

Class Action Waiver: If a Claim is arbitrated, neither you nor we will have the right: (a) to participate in a class action, private attorney general action or other representative action in court or in arbitration, either as a class representative or class member; or (b) to join or consolidate Claims with Claims of any other persons. An award in arbitration shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the Claim(s) in arbitration, and shall not (i) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party, or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party; nor (ii) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than a named party. No arbitration administrator or arbitrator shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this section, and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this Class Action Waiver shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator. Thus, you agree that UNDER THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE LITIGATED IN COURT OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS BASIS. Arbitration will only be conducted on an individual Claim basis and there is no right or authority to consolidate or join any of your Claims with any other Claims. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY WAIVING ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF ANY CLASS OF CLAIMANTS PERTAINING TO ANY CLAIM SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS PROVISION.

Voluntary Waiver of the Right to a Jury Trial: As a result of this Provision, neither you nor we have the right to litigate any Claim in court or the right to a jury trial on any Claim, except as provided above. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY WAIVING ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO GO TO COURT OR TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

Governing Law: This agreement to arbitrate is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, as it may be amended. If for any reason the Federal Arbitration Act does not apply, the substantive law of the State of Pennsylvania shall govern this Provision.

Arbitration Location and Procedure: Any arbitration hearing at which you wish to appear will take place at a location within the federal judicial district that includes the physical address where you reside at the time the Claim is filed. The party bringing the Claim may file its Claim at the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), or an arbitration organization mutually agreed upon by the parties. The arbitration organization that is selected will administer the arbitration pursuant to its procedures in effect at the time of filing, subject to this Provision. If you do not agree to file your claim with AAA, and the parties cannot agree on an alternative arbitration organization, an arbitrator will be appointed by a court pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the respective organization's rules and this Provision or the Credit Card Contract, this Provision shall govern. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator, whose authority is limited solely to individual Claims between you and us. The arbitration will not be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding. Any decision rendered in such arbitration proceeding will be final and binding on the parties, except for any appeal rights under the FAA, and judgment may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction. The rules and forms of AAA may be obtained as follows: American Arbitration Association, 120 Broadway, Floor 21, New York, N.Y. 10271, website at www.adr.org.

Arbitrator's Authority: The arbitrator shall apply the applicable substantive law, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act; shall apply statutes of limitation; and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law. In conducting the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator shall not apply any federal or state rules of civil procedure or evidence. THE RULES AND PROCEDURES OF THE AAA OR OTHER ARBITRATION ORGANIZATION WILL GOVERN THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN PRE-ARBITRATION DISCOVERY. Either party may, however, request to expand the scope of discovery. If a request is made, within 15 days of the requesting party's notice, the objecting party may submit objections to the arbitrator with a copy of the objections provided to the party requesting expansion. The grant or denial of a party's request will be in the sole discretion of the arbitrator, who shall notify the parties of the final decision within 20 days of the objecting party's submission.

The Arbitrator's Award: The arbitrator may award any damages or other relief or remedies that would apply under applicable law to an individual action brought in court, including, without limitation, punitive damages (which shall be governed by the Constitutional standards employed by the courts), attorneys' fees and costs and injunctive, equitable and declaratory relief (but only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim). At the timely request of either party, the arbitrator shall write a brief explanation of the grounds for the decision. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. No arbitration award between you and us will have any impact on any dispute involving anyone who is not a party to the arbitration, nor will an arbitration award between us and any other person have any impact to an arbitration between you and us.

Expenses: We will pay all expenses of arbitration, including the filing, administrative, hearing and arbitrator's fees ("Arbitration Fees"), to the extent that the Arbitration Fees exceed the amounts you would be required to pay for filing a lawsuit in state or federal court, whichever is less. If you have already paid a court filing fee, you will not be required to pay it again. Throughout the arbitration, each party shall bear his or her own attorney fees and expenses, such as witness and expert witness fees. If you prevail in the arbitration of any Claim against us, we will reimburse you for any fees you paid to the arbitration organization in connection with the arbitration. The arbitrator will have the authority to award fees and costs of attorneys, witnesses and experts to the extent permitted by the administrator's rules or applicable law. With respect to Claim(s) asserted by you in an individual arbitration, we will pay your reasonable attorney, witness and expert fees and costs if and to the extent you prevail, if applicable law requires us to or if we must bear such fees and costs in order for this Arbitration Provision to be enforced.

Survival of this Provision:
This arbitration provision shall survive:

  • closing of your Account;
  • voluntary payment of your Account or any part of it;
  • any legal proceedings to collect money you owe;
  • any revocation of consent you provide to us;
  • termination of any application or submission you provide to us;
  • your use or attempted use of any websites of our or our partners;
  • any bankruptcy by you; and
  • any sale by us of your Account.

Your Billing Rights: Keep this Document for Future Use

This notice tells you about your rights and our responsibilities under the Fair Credit Billing Act.

What To Do If You Find A Mistake On Your Statement

If you think there is an error on your statement, write to us at Horizon Card Services, P.O. Box 1275, Indiana, PA 15701

In your letter, give us the following information:

  • Account information: Your name and Account number.
  • Dollar amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error.
  • Description of problem: If you think there is an error on your bill, describe what you believe is wrong and why you believe it is a mistake.

You must contact us:

  • Within 60 days after the error appeared on your statement.
  • At least 3 business days before an automated payment is scheduled, if you want to stop payment on the amount you think is wrong.

You must notify us of any potential errors in writing. You may call us, but if you do, we are not required to investigate any potential errors and you may have to pay the amount in question.

What Will Happen After We Receive Your Letter

When we receive your letter, we must do two things:

  1. Within 30 days of receiving your letter, we must tell you that we received your letter. We will also tell you if we have already corrected the error.
  2. Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either correct the error or explain to you why we believe the bill is correct.

While we investigate whether or not there has been an error:

  • We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report you as delinquent on that amount.
  • The charge in question may remain on your statement, and we may continue to charge you interest on that amount.
  • While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are responsible for the remainder of your balance.
  • We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit.

After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen:

  • If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount in question or any interest or other fees related to that amount.
  • If we do not believe there was a mistake: You will have to pay the amount in question, along with applicable interest and fees. We will send you a statement of the amount you owe and the date payment is due. We may then report you as delinquent if you do not pay the amount we think you owe.

If you receive our explanation but still believe your bill is wrong, you must write to us within 10 days telling us that you still refuse to pay. If you do so, we cannot report you as delinquent without also reporting that you are questioning your bill. We must tell you the name of anyone to whom we reported you as delinquent, and we must let those organizations know when the matter has been settled between us.

If we do not follow all of the rules above, you do not have to pay the first $50.00 of the amount you question even if your bill is correct.

Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied With Your Credit Card Purchases

If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have purchased with your credit card, and you have tried in good faith to correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not to pay the remaining amount due on the purchase.

To use this right, all of the following must be true:

  1. The purchase must have been made in your home state or within 100 miles of your current mailing address, and the purchase price must have been more than $50.00. (Note: Neither of these are necessary if your purchase was based on an advertisement we mailed to you, or if we own or operate the company that sold you the goods or services.)
  2. You must have used your credit card for the purchase. Purchases made with cash advances from an ATM or with a check that accesses your credit card account do not qualify.
  3. You must not yet have fully paid for the purchase.

If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied with the purchase, contact us in writing at the Billing Inquiries address shown on your statement.

While we investigate, the same rules apply to the disputed amount as discussed above. After we finish our investigation, we will tell you of our decision. At that point, if we think you owe an amount and you do not pay, we may report you as delinquent.
