(b) For lists generated pursuant to Rule 13403(a)(2), each separately represented party may strike up to eight of the arbitrators from the non-public list and up to four of the arbitrators from the non-public chairperson list for any reason by crossing through the names of the arbitrators. At least 12 names must remain on the non-public list and at least six names must remain on the non-public chairperson list.
