Do Program and Shutter priority modes work on a Nikon N90s with a Series E lens?

Question

I have a Nikon N90s camera body. Will a Series E 1.8 Nikon lens work on this body in the P and S modes? If so are there any restrictions and if so in what mode?

According to the Nikon Camera and Lens Compatibility Chart at Nikonians.org, no, you will not be able to use Program or Shutter-priority modes on your N90s with AI, AI-S, or E-series lenses.
Quoting a section from the chart:

Nikon Film SLR
...
AI,AI-S,E

N90s/F90x
...
MF1,2

Notes

MF    Manual Focus
1     Only in A (Aperture Priority) or M (Manual) modes. P (Program) or S (Shutter priority) exposure modes will not function.
2     No 3D Matrix Exposure Metering.
