Such notice must not be later than twenty (20) days after the conclusion of the mediation. The notice shall include the specific provision of the agreement involved/violated and/or the basis of the grievance, and the name of the person who will represent the Union in the arbitration. The Board shall thereupon submit to the Union the name of the person who will represent it in the arbitration, and the two persons so named shall, within ten (10) days thereafter, attempt to agree upon an arbitrator. 2. In the event the said persons are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within the ten-day period, the matter shall be submitted alternatively, unless agreed otherwise, to The American Arbitration Association, and the Arbitrator shall be selected from a list supplied by the AAA pursuant to its rules. 3. The arbitrator shall limit his/her decision strictly to the application and interpretation of the provisions of the Agreement. The hearing shall be pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association, as appropriate. 4.
