RULING: A1 will attempt the free throw with the lane spaces occupied as required. The fourth period time has not expired until the period-ending signal.
As I said, that test question evolved from this case play and has been used several times already iirc.

I will need to point this out.
The reason in this play (5.6) that the players line up is there is still time on the clock as the horn nor light have gone off.
If the horn has gone off and no definite time we would not line up players on the line...
