Ornella presentation of the SL-BIS  is accurate.

SL-BIS  set not limit on the number of requests a member can make until they reach the maximum allowable size during each exhaustion phase.

 Demonstrating efficient use of previous allocation of at least 90% is one of the  allocation criteria for additional allocation.

See below allowable limits and Allocation criteria.

Allowable limits

5.4.6.1 Within any 24-month period during Exhaustion Phase 1, an organization may receive one or more allocations/assignments totalling the equivalent of a /18.
 
5.4.6.2 Within any 24-month period during Exhaustion Phase 2, an organization may receive one or more allocations/assignments totalling the equivalent of a /22.

Allocations criteria

 5.4.5.1 In order to receive IPv4 allocations or assignments during the Exhaustion Phase, the LIR or End User must meet IPv4 allocations or assignment policy requirements (by demonstrating and justifying the need for requested space) and must demonstrate to have efficiently used at least 90% of all previous allocations or assignments (including those made during both the Pre-Exhaustion and the Exhaustion Phase).
 
5.4.5.2 In the case of new LIRs or End Users (those that have no previous allocations or assignments prior to the Exhaustion phase), this requirement does not apply to their first allocation or assignment request.
