Any request for arbitration shall be in writing, shall state the dollar amount of the request and shall be delivered to the Owner and any adverse party either by personal delivery or by registered mail addressed to the last known address of each within ten (10) days of receipt of the Owner's decision, and in no event after final payment has been made and accepted, subject, however, to any express stipulation to the contrary in the Contract Documents.

If they fail to select a third within fifteen (15) days, then such arbitrator shall be chosen by the presiding officer of the state or county bar association nearest to the location of the Work. Should the party requesting arbitration fail to name an arbitrator within ten (10) days of its demand, its right to arbitration shall lapse. Should the other party fail to choose an arbitrator within the said ten (10) days then such presiding officer shall appoint such arbitrator.

.2 no one shall be qualified to act as an arbitrator who has, directly or indirectly, any financial interest in the Contract or the Work or who has any business or family relationship with the Owner, the Contractor, or the Owner's Representative. Each arbitrator selected shall be qualified by experience and knowledge of the Work involved in the matter to be submitted to arbitration;

.3 if there be one arbitrator, the award shall be binding; if three, the award of any two shall be binding and may be impeached only for fraud or mistake. Such award shall be a condition precedent to any right of legal action;

.4 the arbitrators, if they deem that the case demands it, are authorized to award to the party whose contention is sustained such sums as they shall deem proper for the time, expense and trouble incident to the arbitration and, if the arbitration was taken without reasonable cause, damages for delay;
