From what I've heard it will try to check with 5 days left in the 10 day window (I'm not sure if the game has to be run to do the check or it dials home on it's own without the need for the game to be running) but if it can't contact the server after the 10 day's are up then the game will lock and can't be played until a re-check can be done before the game will work again.
