Link in immihelp posted by Ravishankar is not correct 100%

These are lines from Department of state ruling on INA 222G which immihelp
link has coated

-- 222(G) DOES NOT/NOT APPLY TO ALIENS WHO FILE FOR A
CHANGE OF STATUS (COS) OR EXTENSION OF STAY (EOS) AND WHO
REMAIN IN THE U.S. AFTER THE DATE ON THEIR I-94, IF THE
REQUEST IS SUBSEQUENTLY APPROVED.

-- 222(G) DOES/DOES APPLY TO ALIENS WHO FILE FOR A COS OR
EOS AND WHO REMAIN AFTER THE DATE ON THEIR I-94, IF THE
COS/EOS REQUEST IS SUBSEQUENTLY DENIED OR IS STILL PENDING
AT THE TIME OF THE ALIEN'S DEPARTURE. (BUT SEE BELOW,
CONCERNING THE BLANKET EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES
EXEMPTION FOR CERTAIN ALIENS WHO DEPART WHILE A COS OR EOS
APPLICATION IS PENDING.)

Bottom line is you are taking risk if your application is pending beyond your
I-94 Expiration date and you do not leave by the I-94 expiration date.
Later on if your application denied - your visa is cancelled.
But if you leave by I-94 expiration date and your application is denied
then visa is not canceled.
So file the application in time and even if it is denied before your I-94
expiration and you leave before that then visa is not cancelled
