It would be open for the respondent to file counter claim, if so advised and the learned arbitrator shall adjudicate both the claim and counter claim. The learned Arbitrator shall fix his own remuneration upon deliberation and consultation with the parties.

The parties will bear the expenses of the arbitration proceedings in equal share. I desire that the learned Arbitrator will complete the arbitration proceedings by making and publishing an award within a period of five months from the date of entering upon the reference.

The Application is accordingly disposed of.
