There are definitly two sides to this subject. I have been on the ADD-THEM-UP side until this year. I don't really care which way we go as long as everyone does it the same.
However the word ADDITIONAL applies to allowing the extra time-out for the overtime period. What word would you use to provide the extra timeout? It is in addition to the other timeouts. You state that ADDITIONAL applies to two things, providing the extra timeout and adding all unused timeouts together.
The rule is written to specifically include unused second-half timeouts. It does not specifically include unused overtime timeouts. The rest of the rule book says that if something is not specifically included then it is excluded (normally). If that is their intent then the rule should be written that way and remove all question as to what they are trying to say.
