SECTION 1. AMENDMENTS RELATING TO TREATMENT OF UNCLAIMED DEPOSITS AT 
              INSURED BANKS AND SAVINGS ASSOCIATIONS.

    Subsection (e) of section 12 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act 
(12 U.S.C. 1822(e)) is amended to read as follows:
    ``(e) Disposition of Unclaimed Deposits.--
            ``(1) Notices.--
                    ``(A) First notice.--Within 30 days after the 
                initiation of the payment of insured deposits under 
                section 11(f), the Corporation shall provide written 
                notice to all insured depositors that they must claim 
                their deposit from the Corporation, or if the deposit 
                has been transferred to another institution, from the 
                transferee institution.
                    ``(B) Second notice.--A second notice containing 
                this information shall be mailed by the Corporation to 
                all insured depositors who have not responded to the 
                first notice, 15 months after the Corporation initiates 
                such payment of insured depositors.
                    ``(C) Address.--The notices shall be mailed to the 
                last known address of the depositor appearing on the 
                records of the insured depository institution in 
                default.
            ``(2) Transfer to appropriate state.--If an insured 
        depositor fails to make a claim for his, her, or its insured or 
        transferred deposit within 18 months after the Corporation 
        initiates the payment of insured deposits under section 11(f)--
                    ``(A) any transferee institution shall refund the 
                deposit to the Corporation, and all rights of the 
                depositor against the transferee institution shall be 
                barred; and
                    ``(B) with the exception of United States deposits, 
                the Corporation shall deliver the deposit to the 
                custody of the appropriate State as unclaimed property, 
                unless the appropriate State declines to accept 
                custody. Upon delivery to the appropriate State, all 
                rights of the depositor against the Corporation with 
                respect to the deposit shall be barred and the 
                Corporation shall be deemed to have made payment to the 
                depositor for purposes of section 11(g)(1).
            ``(3) Refusal of appropriate state to accept custody.--If 
        the appropriate State declines to accept custody of the deposit 
        tendered pursuant to paragraph (2)(B), the deposit shall not be 
        delivered to any State, and the insured depositor shall claim 
        the deposit from the Corporation before the receivership is 
        terminated, or all rights of the depositor with respect to such 
        deposit shall be barred.
            ``(4) Treatment of united states deposits.--If the deposit 
        is a United States deposit it shall be delivered to the 
        Secretary of the Treasury for deposit in the general fund of 
        the Treasury. Upon delivery to the Secretary of the Treasury, 
        all rights of the depositor against the Corporation with 
        respect to the deposit shall be barred and the Corporation 
        shall be deemed to have made payment to the depositor for 
        purposes of section 11(g)(1).
            ``(5) Reversion.--If a depositor does not claim the deposit 
        delivered to the custody of the appropriate State pursuant to 
        paragraph (2)(B) within 10 years of the date of delivery, the 
        deposit shall be immediately refunded to the Corporation and 
        become its property. All rights of the depositor against the 
        appropriate State with respect to such deposit shall be barred 
        as of the date of the refund to the Corporation.
            ``(6) Definitions.--For purposes of this subsection--
                    ``(A) the term `transferee institution' means the 
                insured depository institution in which the Corporation 
                has made available a transferred deposit pursuant to 
                section 11(f)(1);
                    ``(B) the term `appropriate State' means the State

                the depository institution in default has its main 
                office; and
                    ``(C) the term `United States deposit' means an

                records of the depository institution in default

                United States, any department, agency, or 
                instrumentality of the Federal Government, or any
