(3) The Director may deem proofs of claim filed after the date specified as timely filed when the claimant shows to the Director's reasonable satisfaction that (i) the claimant had no actual knowledge of the date before it had passed, (ii) a proof of claim was not sent to the claimant until after the date had passed, and (iii) the Director knew of the claimant's existence and correct address before the date had passed.
