     4    (c-1)  For  any  eligible head of household who submits an application
     5  for a rent increase exemption order pursuant to subdivision (a)  or  (b)
     6  of  this section, the date of such application shall be deemed to be (i)
     7  the date of the applicant's initial  eligibility  for  a  rent  increase
     8  exemption  order, if the actual date of submission of the application is
     9  two years or less after such date of initial eligibility,  or  (ii)  the
    10  date  which  is  two years prior to the actual date of the submission of
    11  the application, if such application is submitted more  than  two  years
    12  after  the applicant's   date of initial eligibility for a rent increase
    13  exemption order, and the calculation of such  rent  increase  exemption,
