Each health spa selling contracts or health spa services on a prepayment basis shall notify the office of the attorney general of the proposed location of the spa for which prepayments will be solicited and shall deposit all funds received from such prepayment contracts in an account established in a financial institution authorized to transact business in this state until the health spa has commenced operations.

The prepayment funds deposited will be eligible for withdrawal by the health spa after the health spa has opened and is providing services pursuant to its health spa contracts and the office of the attorney general gives written authorization for withdrawal.

2. The provisions of this section shall not apply to any health spa duly registered pursuant to the provisions of section 407.327 which has posted a bond or letter of credit in the amount of twenty-five thousand dollars.
