	D.
	Should the two appraisers be unable to agree within said thirty (30) days, the two appraisers shall each submit an independent written appraisal and together they shall designate one (1) additional person as appraiser within five (5) days following the 

expiration of said thirty (30) day period; provided however, that if the difference between the two appraisals is ten percent (10%) or less of the lowest appraisal, then an additional appraiser shall not be designated and the Fair Market Rental shall equal the average of the two (2) appraisals that are submitted.  The third appraiser shall submit an independent written appraisal within thirty (30) days following his or her appointment.  If the two appraisers cannot agree upon a third appraiser, then either party hereunder may request that the presiding Judge of the Maricopa County Superior Court appoint such third appraiser.

	E.
	Each party shall bear the costs of the appraiser appointed by it.  If three (3) appraisers are appointed, each party shall bear the cost of the appraiser appointed by it and the parties shall share equally in the cost of the third appraiser.
