Intransitive (valency = 1, monovalent): the verb only has a subject. For example: "he ...
Just to muddy the waters a little, "up to 90 days after the event" would mean the same as "within 90 days of the event" (i.e. anytime from day 0, when the event finishes, to day 90). "90 days after the event" could mean only on day 90, or on day 90 or any later day. MChesterMC 14:03, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
