By following the error path, I noticed the root issue is in:
https://github.com/stellar/java-stellar-sdk/blob/3dd63dc42a3132388049e6ef7042fa6b3b092c21/src/main/java/org/stellar/sdk/requests/ResponseHandler.java#L31

Meaning the code is probably trying to parse from null to integer, and there's no default value for Retry-After, nor there is a fallback when it's not present.

[JakeUrban]

For context, horizon stopped providing a Retry-After value and now ask clients to use exponential back-off.

@JakeUrban and @marcelosalloum this PR solves the problem. It was already approved and just need to merge. :)
