The notification shall be accompanied by the written notification of the claimant party, the statement of claim and the supporting documents referred to in paragraph 1 above. The Secretariat shall forward the information thus received to all Parties.

Article 2

1. If a dispute is referred to arbitration in accordance with Article 1 above, an arbitral tribunal shall be established. It shall consist of three members.

2. Each of the parties to the dispute shall appoint an arbitrator and the two arbitrators so appointed shall designate by common agreement the third arbitrator, who shall be the President of the tribunal.

3. In disputes between more than two parties, parties in the same interest shall appoint one arbitrator jointly by agreement.

4. Any vacancy shall be filled in the manner prescribed for the initial appointment.

2. Before rendering its final decision, the arbitral tribunal must satisfy itself that the claim is well founded in fact and law.

The award shall be without appeal unless the parties to the dispute have agreed in advance to an appellate procedure.

Article 17
