   (c) When the first claim against a particular deposit account has
been approved, it shall not be paid until the expiration of a period
of 240 days after the date of its approval by the Secretary of State.
Subsequent claims that are approved by the Secretary of State within

particular deposit account after the expiration of a 240-day period,
the date of approval of that claim shall begin a new 240-day period
to which subdivision (c) shall apply with respect to the amount
remaining in the deposit account.
   (e) After a deposit account is exhausted, no further claims shall
be paid by the Secretary of State. Claimants who have had their
claims paid in full or in part pursuant to subdivisions (c) and (d)
shall not be required to return funds received from the deposit for
the benefit of other claimants.
   (f) When a deposit has been made in lieu of a bond, the amount of
the deposit shall not be subject to attachment, garnishment, or
execution with respect to an action or judgment against the invention
developer, other than as to an amount no longer needed or required
for the purpose of this chapter which would otherwise be returned to
the invention developer by the Secretary of State.
   (g) The Secretary of State shall retain a cash deposit for two
years from the date the Secretary of State receives written
notification from the assignor of the deposit that the assignor has
ceased to engage in the business of an invention developer or has

outstanding claims against the deposit. The written notice shall

and (4) a statement whether the assignor is ceasing to engage in the
business of an invention developer or has filed a bond with the
Secretary of State. The Secretary of State shall forward an
acknowledgment of receipt of the written notification to the assignor
at the address indicated therein, specifying the date of receipt of
the written notice and anticipated date of release of the deposit.
   (h) This section shall apply to all deposits retained by the
Secretary of State.
   (i) A judge of a superior court may order the return of the
deposit prior to the expiration of two years upon evidence
