The indemnity cost provisions in the card agreements are unconscionable under the Unconscionable Contracts Ordinance on the facts (unequal bargaining power, lack of notice, unbounded and potentially unreasonable recovery of costs and charges); therefore they are unenforceable and the plaintiffs are restricted to fixed costs as provided by Order 62; appeal dismissed and Master's order for fixed costs upheld.
