He must do so before stopping his own clock and starting his opponent's clock. An offer at any other time during play is still valid, but Article 12.5 must be considered. So doing it like in sentences 1 and 2 is correct - "an offer at any other time during play is still valid " - come on . To me this sounds like : " If you have to play someone who doesn't even follow the rules properly , show some patience " :-) .
