Q.

L1B to H1B COS with two employers

I am in US on L1B now.
In July 2011 Company B applied for my H1B with COS. Still awaiting answer on that. I am expecting an answer around first 2 weeks of October.
Now I got an offer of fulltime employment with Company C and they want to file a H1b with COS under premium processing asap. I cannot ask them to wait for Company B’s petition result because I do not know the outcome.
I finally want to work for Company C. Please guide me how to work for C without ruining my status
1. Can two companies file my H1B with COS as I do not know the outcome of Company B’s petition yet.
2. So what happens if I get Company B’s COS first?
3. What happens if I get Company C’s COS first?
4. Do I have to tell Company C about the other petition before they apply?
Please advice as soon as possible
