DISPUTE RESOLUTION; GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION AND VENUE

MANDATORY BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF COURT; CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
(a) You and Hilltop both agree that any and all disputes or claims arising out of or relating in any way to your use of the Site, including any question regarding the existence, validity, or termination of these Terms of Use, will be resolved by binding arbitration before a sole arbitrator, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify and Hilltop may pursue a collection action against you in court. This also includes any claims that arose before you accepted these Terms of Use, regardless of whether prior versions of the Terms of Use required arbitration. The Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) and federal arbitration law apply to this arbitration agreement.

(b) Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge and jury. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages) and must follow the terms of these Terms of Use as a court would. Arbitration procedures allow for more limited discovery, and court review of an arbitration award is limited.

(c) If you have a dispute and elect to seek arbitration or file a claim in small claims court, you must first send to Hilltop, by certified mail, a written notice of your claim that (a) describes the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; (b) sets forth the specific relief sought and (c) includes a physical address and email address where you may be reached (“Notice”). The Notice must be addressed to: General Counsel, Hilltop, 9544 Kiowa Rd. Apple Valley, CA 92308 (“Notice Address”). If Hilltop and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 60 days after the Notice is received, you or Hilltop may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. You may download or copy a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org.

(d) The arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s then current Consumer Arbitration Rules, as modified by these Terms of Use, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. In the event of any conflict between these Terms of Use and the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules, the Terms of Use will apply.

(e) Each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at any arbitration hearing.

(f) If your claim is for US$25,000 or less, you and Hilltop agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents or through a telephonic hearing. If your claim exceeds US$25,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the arbitrator. ANY IN-PERSON HEARING WILL OCCUR IN APPLE VALLEY, CALIFORNIA.

(g) You and Hilltop agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, representative, consolidated or mass action. You shall not join or consolidate claims or arbitrate or otherwise participate in any claim as a class representative, class member or in a private attorney general capacity.

(h) Any arbitration will be confidential. Neither you, Hilltop, the AAA nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content (including any oral or written submissions), or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcing or challenging of the arbitration award.

(i) You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure by providing written notice to Hilltop at the Notice Address no later than 30 calendar days from the date of your purchase of any applicable Hilltop services / products (or date of first use, in the case of free services). Such opt out will apply only to any services / products that you purchased or used and which you specifically identify in the notice; provided, however, it will not apply either retroactively or prospectively to any other services / products. If you purchase or use additional Hilltop services /products in the future and wish to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure for those services, / products you will have to submit a new written notice. Opting out of this dispute resolution procedure will not otherwise affect the coverage or applicability of these Terms of Use, or your ability to purchase or use services, in any way.

GOVERNING LAW
All matters relating to the Site and these Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction).

JURISDICTION AND VENUE
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration or small claims court, including if you opt out of the mandatory arbitration provision, we each waive any right to a jury trial and agree that any such proceeding shall be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, representative, consolidated or mass action. Under such circumstances, except for a collection action by Hilltop, you and Hilltop agree that jurisdiction and venue for all matters relating to these Terms of Use shall be vested exclusively in the state courts in San Bernardino County, California, or the U.S. District Court for District of California.

If any part of this section is found to be unenforceable, the remainder of this section shall still be given full force and effect.

LIMITATION ON TIME TO FILE CLAIMS
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY
No waiver of by the Company of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT
The Terms of Use constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Hilltop with respect to the Site and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the Site.
