SECTION 22 — The Arbitral award

22.1 Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, and provided that such an agreement is in conformity with the applicable law, all awards shall state the reasons upon which they are based. 22.2 They shall be deemed to be made at the seat of the arbitration and on the date of their signature after scrutiny by the Court. 22.3 They shall be signed by the arbitrator having regards, where necessary, to the provisions of article 4[3] and 4[4] above. If three arbitrators were appointed, the award shall be made by a majority decision. Failing a majority decision, the Chairperson of the arbitral tribunal shall decide alone. The arbitral award shall be signed, as the case may be, by the three members of the arbitral tribunal, or by the Chairperson alone. Where the arbitral award is made by a majority decision, refusal by the dissenting arbitrator to sign same shall not affect the validity of the award. 22.4 Any member of the arbitral tribunal may hand his personal opinion to the Chairman for the purpose of being attached to the award.
