d.Nature and Place of Payments.

On the applicable Maturity Date, the Lender shall automatically debit all outstanding amounts via ACH pursuant to such valid authorization by the Borrower. Any payment received after 1pm Pacific Time on a Business Day by the Lender will be considered to have been made by the Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day and, at the election of the Lender, interest thereon shall be payable by the Borrower at the Interest Rate during such extension. If any payment required to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, at the election of the Lender, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

As used in this Agreement, the term "Dispute" is to be given the broadest possible meaning, and includes without limitation disputes arising from or relating to (A) this Agreement, including without limitation, the terms, construction, interpretation, performance, termination, breach, or enforceability of this Agreement, (B) any transactions effected pursuant to this Agreement, (C) the terms of or change or addition of terms to this Agreement, (D) the collection or enforcement of any obligation arising from this Agreement, (E) advertisements, promotions, or oral or written statements relating to this Agreement or any transactions between us pursuant to this Agreement, (F) disputes between Borrower and Guarantor (if any) and Lender or Lender's parent corporations, and (G) disputes regarding the "making" (9 U.S.C. § 4), validity, enforceability, or scope of this agreement to arbitrate or this Agreement, including but not limited to whether a given claim or dispute is subject to arbitration. The term "Dispute" extends to and includes claims the Borrower asserts against the Lender that arose before the existence of this Agreement and the Borrower's claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement that arise after termination of this Agreement. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if the Lender or the Borrower elects to arbitrate a Dispute (I) the Dispute will be resolved by an arbitrator on an individual basis and not by a judge and jury, (II) the Borrower and the Lender will be limiting or foregoing rights that might otherwise exist in court under applicable rules of evidence or civil procedure, (III) the Borrower and the Lender will be giving up their respective right to appeal from the arbitrator's decision regarding the Dispute, (IV) the Dispute will be resolved only on an individual basis and that the Borrower will not be able to bring or participate as a representative plaintiff or class member in a class action with respect to any Dispute, (V) the Borrower will not be able to arbitrate any Dispute in a private attorney general or other representative capacity, and (VI) the arbitrator will have no authority to hear a class or representative action, or to join or consolidate a Dispute with that of any other borrower.

 

ii.For purposes of this arbitration agreement, references to the Borrower and the Lender also include their respective Affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors, successors and assigns, as well as authorized users or beneficiaries of the Lender's services.

 

iii.Exclusions. Either the Lender or the Borrower may file a motion, petition, complaint, counterclaim, or cross-complaint or cross-petition in a court of competent jurisdiction in the state of Borrowers' residence and each Party consents to the jurisdiction of these courts:

 

 (A)To enforce the arbitration provisions of this Section 9(g);

 

(B) To obtain monetary relief, or to foreclose on a lien or other security interest, solely on an individual (not class action or representative) basis in an amount less than $25,000;

 

(C) To seek equitable remedies on a provisional basis pending arbitration; such equitable remedies shall remain in place until the later of such time as the arbitrator's award entering preliminary or permanent injunctive relief (or dissolving or modifying a court-entered injunction) is (I) confirmed, or (II) the time for bringing a motion to confirm the arbitral award has expired without a motion or petition for confirmation having been timely filed; or

 

(D)If the Borrower is a California resident and a Dispute involves a claim for public injunctive relief under California law, the Borrower may bring that claim in court. If the Borrower brings that claim in court, the Borrower agrees that the Lender may treat such a claim as a Dispute within the meaning of this Section 9(g) and that the Lender would then have the right to elect arbitration, and if the Borrower refuses its demand, to move to enforce arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Section 9(g) pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1 et seq. (the "FAA"). If the Lender brings and loses that motion, the Borrower's claim for public injunctive relief will be heard in court, but the Borrower agrees to stay its claim in court for public injunctive relief pending (I) exhaustion of the Lender's right to appeal in court from the ruling against it, and (II) completion of arbitration of all other Disputes. If the Lender wins its motion, the Borrower's claim for injunctive relief will be decided in arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Section 9(g), meaning that the arbitrator can award only such injunctive relief as is necessary to remedy the Borrower's own alleged injury or to prevent future injury to the Borrower alone.

  iv. For the avoidance of doubt, if either party asserts in any way a claim or Dispute other than those set out in Section 9 (g)(iii), the other party still may elect arbitration of these other claims or Disputes. In addition, if Borrower, Guarantor or Lender files a Dispute in court, such action is not deemed to be a waiver of the right to compel arbitration of any counterclaims, cross-claims, or separate claims that may be asserted.
     
  v. Law Governing Agreement to Arbitrate. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce. Accordingly, the agreement to arbitrate set forth in this Section 9(g) is governed by the FAA, and not by any state law governing consolidation or joinder of parties or claims, the arbitrability of claims, or the enforcement of class action or jury trial waivers
     
  vi. Arbitration Procedure.

 

(A)How to elect arbitration of a dispute. The Borrower or the Lender may elect arbitration by providing written notice to the other in accordance with Section 9(f).

 

(B) Number of arbitrators. All Disputes shall be resolved by a single arbitrator who shall be a retired judge selected by the parties.

 

(C) Administration of arbitration. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS and the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures except as otherwise agreed in this Agreement. If JAMS is unavailable to administer the arbitration, then the arbitration shall be administered by (I) the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules or (II) such other administrator as the parties agree to or, in the absence of agreement, (III) as selected by a court. If the parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator, the arbitration administrator will select a retired judge to serve as an arbitrator. JAMS or AAA may be contacted as follows: JAMS (18881 Von Karman Ave., Suite 350, Irvine, CA 92612, 1 ###-###-####, www.jamsadr.com); American Arbitration Association (120 Broadway, Floor 21, New York, NY 10271, 1 ###-###-####, www.adr.org). The administrator's rules are posted online. You should read these rules carefully.

 

(D) Location of arbitration. Any arbitration hearing will occur in the Borrower's state of residence at a place determined in accordance with the administrator's rules. However, the Borrower and the Lender agree that the arbitrator is authorized, in his or her discretion, to conduct special hearings at any other place for the purpose of receiving evidence that would otherwise be unavailable at the situs of the arbitration and that the place for the special hearing selected by the arbitrator shall also be deemed a place where the arbitrator or "[is] sitting" for purposes of Section 7 of the FAA. The Borrower and the Lender further agree that the arbitrator or any party may attend any hearing electronically, and that the electronic, adjudicative (as opposed to physical) presence of the arbitrator at the hearing satisfies the "[is] sitting" requirement of Section 7 of the FAA. To the extent permitted by applicable local law, the arbitrator is authorized to conduct special hearings outside the United States to receive evidence not otherwise available within the United States. The Borrower and the Lender agree that the arbitrator may appear and preside telephonically or electronically at such hearings and that any party may also appear and participate telephonically or electronically. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, the Borrower or the Lender may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on the Borrower and the Lender subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant.

 

(E) Law to be applied by the arbitrator to resolve disputes in arbitration. As provided in sub-section (v) of this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator shall apply the FAA to all questions arising under the FAA. Subject to and to the extent not preempted by the FAA, the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, the rules of the administrator, and the law of the State of Utah (without reference to its choice of law rules) shall be applied (in the foregoing order of priority) by the arbitrator as the rule of decision in arbitration to issues that would be governed by state law if the Dispute were heard in court instead of in arbitration; likewise, the arbitrator shall apply federal law to all questions of federal law that arise in arbitration. However, the arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations or court proceedings involving different borrowers or users of the Lender's services.

(F)Authority of arbitrator. Subject to all applicable limitations of liability including those set forth in Section 9(o), which shall be enforced by the arbitrator, the arbitrator is authorized to award remedies that would be available on an individual basis if the action were heard in a court. The arbitrators shall honor claims of privilege in accordance with federal law, if a federal claim is at issue, or applicable state law, if a claim governed by state law or foreign law is at issue. The arbitrator shall apply applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrators shall hear Motions to Dismiss or their equivalent and Motions for Summary Judgment. The arbitrators shall determine such motions under Rules 12 and 56 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (or their equivalents if superseded) and case law construing these rules governing at the time of decision. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, a motion to dismiss shall be filed no later than the 60th day following the appointment of the arbitrator and heard by the arbitrator within 30 days thereafter. The arbitrator shall rule on any motion to dismiss within 15 days of the hearing date on such motion. If the arbitrator allows an amended pleading, then the opposing party shall have an opportunity to move to dismiss any amended pleading. A party shall be entitled to bring a motion or motions for summary judgment at any point after the 60th day following notice of an election to arbitrate and any such motion or motions shall be heard and determined no later than 4 weeks prior to the date of any evidentiary hearing in the matter. The arbitrator has no authority to (i) certify a class, (ii) conduct a classwide arbitration, (iii) hear claims brought in a representative or private attorney general capacity, or (iv) join or consolidate a Dispute (or the hearing respecting a Dispute) with claims of persons other than the Borrower, the Lender, or their respective Affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors, successors and assigns as well as authorized users or beneficiaries under this Agreement of Lender's services. The arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to remedy the party's individual injury or to prevent future injury to that party alone; any relief awarded cannot affect other borrowers or other users of the Lender's services.

 

(G) Arbitral award and enforcement thereof. The arbitrator's award shall be in writing and shall provide a brief explanation of the arbitrator's findings of fact and conclusions of law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered and/or confirmed in any court having jurisdiction.

 

(H)Additional Conditions. If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement cannot be enforced, the unenforceable portion will be severed and the rest of this Section 9(g) will continue to apply. However, if (i) it is finally determined that the class action waiver contained in this Section 9(g) cannot be enforced, or (ii) the arbitrator (contrary to this Section 9(g)) purports to decide a Dispute on a class or other representative basis, or to award injunctive relief that extends beyond that necessary to remedy the Borrower's own individual alleged injuries or to prevent future harm to the Borrower alone, then only this sentence will apply and the remainder of this Arbitration Agreement will be void. In no event will a claim for class relief (or for injunctive relief extending beyond the Borrower's own individual alleged injuries or to prevent future harm to the Borrower alone) be arbitrated.

 

(I)Survival. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 9(g) survives termination of this Agreement to the extent provided herein.

 

h. Transfers. The Borrower acknowledges that the Lender may elect to sell, assign, and otherwise transfer to other Persons (each, a "Transferee") all or portions of, and participations in, the Lender's interest in Loans outstanding (and its commitment to make Loans) under this Agreement from time to time and expressly agrees that the holder of any Loans or interest in this Agreement (or commitment to make Loans under this Agreement) shall be a "Lender" under this Agreement. The Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to the Lender such documents, instruments, and agreements, including amendments to the Loan Documents, deemed necessary or desirable by the Lender to effectuate transfers pursuant to this Section 9(h).

i.Electronic Documents; Counterparts. Electronic records and signatures may be used in connection with the execution of this Agreement and the Loans Documents, in the Lender's discretion. This Agreement and the Loan Documents may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both counterparts that are executed on paper and counterparts that are electronic records and executed electronically, and by the different parties on separate counterparts each of which, when so executed, (and any copy of an executed counterpart that is an electronic record) shall be deemed an original but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same document. Delivery of a manually executed paper counterpart of this Agreement (or of any Loan Document or other agreement or document required by this Agreement and any amendment to this Agreement) by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be as effective as delivery of such manually executed paper counterpart; provided, however, that the telecopy or other electronic image shall be promptly followed by a manually executed paper original if required by the Lender.

 

j.Accounting Terms. All accounting terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement are used with the meanings given such terms under GAAP.

 

k. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Lender or the Lender exercises its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party in connection with any insolvency proceeding, or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

 

l. Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lender provided by law and to the extent fully permitted by law, if an Event of Default exists, the Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (if permitted by law), to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing to, the Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations owing to the Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. The Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such setoff and application made by the Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

 

m. Severability. Subject to Section 9(g), the illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any instrument or agreement required under this Agreement shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof.

 

n. No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower and the Lender, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. The Lender has no obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or other Loan Documents.

 

o. Limitation of Liability. THE LENDER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF THE BORROWER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, LACK OR LOSS OF PRODUCTIVITY, COST OF SUBSTITUTE EQUIPMENT, SERVICES, OR DOWNTIME COSTS EXCEPT THOSE WHICH ARISE PURSUANT TO THE LENDER'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH CLAIM IN ADVANCE.

Formula:

 

Example:

 

Amount advanced (A) = $1,000

 

Weekly Payment (P) = $89.20

 

Number of payments (n) = 12

 

Finance Charge = $70.40

 

Unit period = 1 week

 

Unit periods per year = 52

 

Advance, 11/18/19

 

First payment, 11/30/19

 

Payments made each Wednesday, starting 11/30/19

Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing is an example only and the actual Interest Rate for each Loan may differ.

"Obligations" shall mean any and all debts, obligations, and liabilities of the Borrower to the Lender arising under this Agreement (whether principal, interest, fees, or otherwise, whether now existing or hereafter arising, whether voluntary or involuntary, whether or not jointly owed with others, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, contractual or tortious, liquidated or unliquidated, arising by operation of law or otherwise, whether or not from time to time decreased or extinguished and later increased, created or incurred and whether or not extended, modified, rearranged, restructured, refinanced or replaced, including modifications to interest rates or other payment terms of such debts, obligations, or liabilities).
