MANDATORY ARBITRATION. This provision constitutes an agreement to arbitrate disputes on an individual basis.
Any party may bring an individual action in small claims court instead of pursuing arbitration.
Any claim, dispute or controversy, regarding any contract, tort statute, or otherwise (“Claim”), arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, any service provided pursuant to this agreement, its issuance, a breach of any agreement provision, any controversy or
claim arising out of the transaction giving rise to this agreement, or the relationships among the parties hereto shall be resolved
by one arbitrator through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), under the AAA
Commercial or Consumer, as applicable, Rules in eect at the time the Claim is led (“AAA Rules”). Copies of AAA Rules and forms
can be located at www.adr.org, or by calling 1-800-778-7879.
The arbitration will take place in the same county in which the property covered by the Home Warranty Contract is located. The
arbitrator's decision shall be nal, binding, and non-appealable. Judgment upon the award may be entered and enforced in any
court having jurisdiction. This clause is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed
by the Federal Arbitration Act. By entering into this Agreement the parties acknowledge that they are giving up the right to a
jury trial, and the right to participate in any class action, private attorney general action, or other representative or consolidated
action, including any class arbitration or consolidated arbitration proceeding. Neither party shall sue the other party other than as
provided herein or for enforcement of this clause or of the arbitrator's award: any such suit may be brought only in Federal District
Court for the District or, if any such court lacks jurisdiction, in any state court that has jurisdiction. The arbitrator, and not any
federal, state, or local court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, uncon-
scionability, arbitrability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement including any claim that all or any part of the Agreement
is void or voidable. However, the preceding sentence shall not apply to the clause entitled “Class Action Waiver.” This arbitration
agreement will survive the termination of this Home Warranty Contract. As noted above, a party may elect to bring an
individual action in small claims court instead of arbitration, so long as the dispute falls within the jurisdictional
requirements of small claims court.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER. Any Claim must be brought in the parties' individual capacity, and not as a plainti or class member in any
purported class, collective, representative,multiple plainti, or similar proceeding (“Class Action”). The parties expressly waive any
ability to maintain any Class Action in any forum. The arbitrator shall not have authority to combine or aggregate similar claims
or conduct any Class Action nor make an award to any person or entity not a party to the arbitration. Any claim that all or part
of this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent
jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT THEY WOULD HAVE HAD A RIGHT TO LITIGATE THROUGH A
COURT, TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE THEIR CASE AND TO BE PARTY TO A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, HOWEVER,THEY
UNDERSTAND AND CHOOSE TO HAVE ANY CLAIMS DECIDED INDIVIDUALLY, THROUGH ARBITRATION.
AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and complete understanding between the Parties and supersedes
all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings of the Parties. No modications or amendments to this Agree-
ment are eective unless in writing and signed by both Parties.

Member of the NATIONAL HOME SERVICE CONTRACT ASSOCIATION
NHSCA Co-Code: 12H244
1. If a covered item fails during the contract term, the contract holder must place a service request at www.homewarranty.com or by calling
1-800-308-1420. Should the contract holder contract directly with others or do the work themselves, Fidelity National Home Warranty (FNHW)
will not reimburse that cost. Upon receipt of a service request, FNHW will contact an independent service contractor (contractor) within 3
hours during normal business hours and 48 hours on weekends and holidays. Our assigned contractor will then call the contract holder directly
to schedule a mutually convenient appointment during normal business hours. FNHW will determine what service requests constitute an
emergency and will make reasonable efforts to expedite emergency service. The contract holder is responsible for any additional fees, including
overtime, for non-emergency services requested outside normal business hours. Please call 1-800-308-1420 with any concerns regarding the
contractor providing service or problems scheduling appointments.
2. Should FNHW grant the contract holder permission to contact a contractor directly to perform a covered service, FNHW will reimburse the
contract holder only if the contractor is qualified, licensed, insured, and provides fair and reasonable rates on parts and labor. Once the contractor
arrives at the property and prior to the contractor performing any repairs for which the contract holder may seek reimbursement, the contract
holder must contact FNHW by calling 1-800-208-3151 to confirm that service work is covered under the contract.
3. Service Trade Call Fee (fee): The Contract Holder is required to pay a $75.00 service trade call fee for each trade service request submitted
to FNHW. For example, if a contract holder needs both a plumber and an appliance technician, each will require a separate service trade call fee.
The fee is due once the contract holder requests service and is due at that time regardless of whether: the requested service is covered or denied;
the diagnosis results in a complete or partial exclusion of coverage; the contractor is en route to the home and the contract holder cancels the
appointment; contract holder fails to provide the necessary access to perform the service request, including not being home at the time of the
prearranged appointment. Failure to pay a fee will result in suspension of coverage until such time as the proper fee is paid. Upon receipt of that
payment, coverage will be reinstated for the remainder of the contract term.
4. Service work is warrantied (without an additional service trade call fee) for 30 days on labor and 90 days on parts. The 30/90-
day warranty only applies to malfunctions that are reported to FNHW during the term of this contract. Pest control service work is
warrantied for only 30 days from the original date of service.
5. Buyer’s Coverage: starts at the close of escrow and continues for one year provided the contract fee is paid at the close of escrow.
When the contract fee has not been received by FNHW, request for service will be dispatched once contract payment can be veried by
the closing agency or another source of contract payment is made (i.e., credit card). You must call for service prior to the expiration of this
contract. For homes not going through a real estate transaction: Contract coverage is eective 30 days following receipt
of payment by FNHW. Options must be added at the time of purchase.
6. New Construction Coverage: Plan coverage and any optional coverage begins on the rst anniversary of the close of escrow and
continues for 4 years from that date, provided the plan fee is received by FNHW within 10 working days from the close of escrow. All
systems and appliances to be covered must be in good working condition at the time coverage begins on the rst anniversary after the
close of escrow. Anytime during the rst year of coverage, the contract holder may call FNHW for assistance in the event of a problem with
the systems or appliances generally described in this plan. FNHW will assist the contract holder in contacting the manufacturer or contact
the manufacturer on the contract holder’s behalf to determine the remedies available to the contract holder under the manufacturer’s
warranty for the system or appliance associated with the contract holder’s request.
7. This contract covers single-family dwellings under 5,000 square feet and does not cover multi-unit homes, unless amended by FNHW
prior to the start of coverage. Guest houses, casitas or similar structures require a separate contract. Covered dwellings cannot be used for
commercial purposes, for example, as day care centers, nursing care homes, fraternity/sorority houses, etc.
8. This contract covers only those parts, components, systems and appliances specically mentioned as covered and
excludes all others. FNHW provides examples of components 'not covered' to assist understanding of this contract and examples are
not exhaustive. We recommend that you review your contract completely. Covered systems and/or appliances must be located within the
main foundation of the home or garage except for exterior well pump, air conditioner/evaporative cooler, pressure regulator, waste/stop
valves, water heaters, pool/spa equipment, sewage ejector pump and outdoor septic tank system equipment. All coverage is subject to
the limitations and conditions mentioned in this contract.
9. Optional Seller’s Coverage must be ordered in conjunction with a Buyer's Plan. Seller's Coverage begins upon issuance of a
conrmation number by FNHW and continues for 180 days, close of escrow or termination of listing, whichever comes rst. Seller's
Coverage may be extended at FNHW's sole discretion. Seller's Coverage is not available on homes in excess of 5,000 square feet, for sale
by owner properties, New Construction Coverage, multi-units, guest houses, casitas or any of the Buyer’s Coverage Options. The combined
contract aggregate limits for the access, diagnosis, repair and replacement of the following items during the Seller's Coverage period
apply; heating and/or air conditioning system/evaporative cooler and ductwork = $1,500.00 maximum; furnace failures due to a cracked
heat exchanger or combustion chamber = $500.00 maximum. All other limits and aggregates apply.
Note: The washer/dryer/kitchen refrigerator under the Enhanced Plan are not covered by Seller’s Coverage.
10. Covered systems and appliances must be in good, safe working order at the start of contract coverage or they
are not covered under your home warranty contract. Unknown pre-existing conditions will be covered if, at the time coverage
began, the defect or malfunction would not have been known to the buyer, seller, agent, or home inspector by a visual inspection and by
operating the system or appliance. A visual inspection of the covered item veries that it appears structurally intact and without damage
or missing parts that would indicate inoperability. Operating the covered item is dened as turning the item on and o to ensure that it is
operational. While turned on, the item operates without causing damage, irregular sounds, smoke or other abnormal outcomes.
11. FNHW will repair or replace covered systems and appliances which mechanically malfunction due to insucient maintenance, rust,
corrosion or sediment, unless otherwise noted in this contract.
