Review comment:
       There are two reasons for this:
   1. It also deals with the case where the sendRegionClose() itself returns 
false without getting into the catch block though I am not very sure of the 
case where it would reach there. the method doc says the method returns false 
if it doesn't acknowledge the request
   2. The exponential backoff is configurable and can even be 5 minutes , so 
there is no point holding the thread for that amount of time  and rather have 
it deal asynchronously.
   
   I cannot think of any state machine issue as even if just sleep the current 
thread , the state would remain the same and the method as such is not 
returning anything and anyone else would just check the state change made by 
the method either synchronously or asynchronously. Rather we would delegate it 
to a new thread and not block the current thread.
