Unless the appraisers shall have reached a decision within ten (10) days after their selection, they shall select an impartial third MAl appraiser qualified as above within another ten (10) days. The three appraisers shall render their decision within ten (10) days following the selection of the third appraiser and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof. The unanimous written decision of the two first chosen (without selection and participation of a third appraiser), or otherwise the written decision of a majority of the three appraisers chosen as herein provided shall be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
