v. Betr, LLC; Betr Social, LLC; and Betr Holdings, Inc.
Dear
{{client_name}}
This is an agreement (“Agreement”) between you and Bryson Harris Suciu & DeMay PLLC
(“Firm”) for legal representation regarding your claim(s) against Betr, LLC, Betr Holdings, Inc. and/or,
Betr Social, LLC or any of their affiliates or subsidiary companies (collectively, “Betr”), arising from
the marketing and operation of the Betr mobile application (the “Platform”). Betr hosts numerous
casino-style games and sportsbook contests in violation of numerous state anti-gambling statutes and consumer
protection laws.
You understand and authorize the Firm to proceed with filing your claim(s) as an individual arbitration.
Arbitration is a simplified means of pursuing legal claims, where the claim is decided by an arbitrator rather than
a judge or jury. You authorize the Firm to settle your individual claim(s) with Betr for a reasonable amount and to
execute a release of your individual claim(s) on your behalf. However, this Agreement also authorizes the Firm to
settle and release your claim(s) as a part of a class action if Betr chooses to do so.If the Firm enters a
settlement with your authority, and you choose not to participate in the settlement, you may reject the settlement,
and the Firm may withdraw its representation of you. You further authorize the Firm to represent additional
individuals who have claims that are the same or similar claims to yours against Betr.
You further understand that you may be asked to participate in a telephonic or in-person hearing with the
arbitrator and a member of the Firm, and you agree to the best of your ability to appear and answer questions
regarding the services you obtained.
The Firm will handle this matter with a contingent fee of the greater of either forty percent (40%), as allowed
by state law, of any recovery obtained in this matter or total attorneys’ fees awarded by the arbitrator or
court or, alternatively, an amount to be negotiated with Betr's counsel. The Firm reserves the right to associate
with co-counsel, but the fee will be split between the Firm and any additional firm(s) they associate with.
The Firm will advance all costs incurred by the Firm during this litigation (e.g., filing fees, travel, etc.).
The Firm will be reimbursed for these costs if, and only if, they ultimately obtain a recovery on your behalf.
Advanced costs are deducted after the calculation of the contingent fee.
The Firm will keep you informed about the progress of your claim as it moves forward. We will do so via phone
calls, emails, and SMS messages. By signing this retainer Agreement, you consent to the Firm calling and
sending case-related SMS messages to the cell phone number you provided when signing up for representation. If
at any time you no longer wish to receive phone calls from the Firm, you can email us at
arbitration.clientcare@brysonpllc.com.
Similarly, if you no longer wish to receive SMS messages from the Firm, you can reply “STOP” to
any SMS message to opt out of receiving additional messages.
You authorize the Firm to withdraw from representation if they determine for sufficient reasons that your
claim(s) should not continue. Regardless, the Firm will maintain the file on this matter for at least six years. If
requested, these will be returned to you after the conclusion of the representation.
Finally, the Firm does not make any promises or guarantees regarding the outcome of your claim(s). If you have
any questions about the foregoing, please advise. We would appreciate your returning a signed copy of this
engagement letter to us for our files.

of having an account with Betr and having lost money through their sportsbook or arcade (for example, a screenshot
of deposits or bets made).
I further certify that I have not retained any other law firm(s) to pursue my claim(s) against Betr and that I
will not retain any other law firm(s) to do so. I understand that, if I do retain or have retained another law firm
to pursue my claim(s), the Firm may terminate their representation of me in connection with my claim(s) against
Betr.

I, the undersigned, hereby consent to the Firm keeping me informed about the progress of my claim by calling,
emailing, and sending case-related SMS messages to the cell phone number that I provided to the Firm when signing up
for representation.I understand that, if at any time I no longer wish to receive phone calls from the Firm, I can

lawsuits, and investigations that may be relevant or of interest to me.
* Please note that the company against which you are retaining the Firm to pursue individual arbitration claims
on your behalf may require submission of a notice letter personally signed by you to begin the dispute resolution
process. So that the Firm can start this process, by signing the Retainer Agreement, it is your intent to provide
the Firm with your electronic signature and your consent to include your electronic signature in the notice letter
to be sent on your behalf to the company identified in the Retainer Agreement as the party against whom the Firm has
agreed to represent you in connection with your individual arbitration. This is the sole limited purpose for which
you are giving the Firm legal authority to utilize your electronic signature.
