Law 25 Unintended call or mistake?

See hands below.

                                    W        N         E          S         

The bidding went        1H       pass     1S        2D

                                    3C       pass     4NT     pass

                                    5D       pass     5S

 After clearly removing his pen after the 5 Spades bid he said "oops" I did not mean to bid 5 Spades and called the Director claiming Inadvertency. East claimed he wanted to bid 5 hearts not 5 spades. What should director rule?

East has 16 points, three hearts and five spades. West has one ace.

    I would rule that as "unintended" on the basis of the information given.

    But I'm not a National director; someone who is might disagree with me
