(2) the parties are entitled to be heard, to present evidence material to the controversy, and to cross-examine witnesses appearing at the hearing;

(3) the hearing shall be conducted by all the arbitrators but a majority may determine any question and render a final award; if, during the course of the hearing, an arbitrator for any reason ceases to act, the remaining arbitrator or arbitrators appointed to act as neutrals shall continue with the hearing and determination of the controversy.
