Registering for H1B lottery through a company & still looking out for jobs

Question

Hi,I will start my work on OPT [Optional Practical Training on F1 visa] in June. I have only one offer from a company (Company A), but I don't have a good CTC. I'm still interviewing for other positions, but Company A is starting the procedure for the H1B lottery.Suppose I get an offer from another company, will it be possible for me to get out of the lottery, in case the other company also wants to register for the H1B lottery?Secondly, I have read on "Blind" that people register for the H1B lottery with two possible employers.  How is it even allowed?

H1B transfer is easier to do. Lottery is tricky

1. If you get an offer from employer B beyond, 18th march ( deadline to file lottery applications), it's of no use as the new employer won't be able to file any lottery application for you. 
2. Multiple H1b lottery applications are allowed as long as they are from different and unrelated employers. How? Because h1b is employer based immigration program. USCIS can't stop any employer from filing lottery application if they want.
