Thanks - that's pretty definitive.
5-10 refers to time-outs, not intermissions.

Here's the relevant rule: 3-4, Art. 2. Substitutions between halves shall be reported to the official scorer by the substitute(s) or a team representative before the signal that ends the intermission rather than after the warning signal.

The situation originally described had the players on the court ready to play, which sounds like it's after the second horn. Hence no sub. But a sub would be allowed between the warning horn and the second horn, unlike after a time-out.
