(b) [Reserved] (c) Any material misrepresentation of fact in such an application shall be grounds for rescission nunc pro tunc of any antitrust immunity granted as a result of the misrepresentation. (d) A request for renewal of any immunity granted does not operate under section 558 of Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 558(c), to extend the period of immunity conferred.
