  tangible property, which is not otherwise subject to the  provisions  of
  this  chapter  or  any  other law regarding the disposition of unclaimed
  property belonging to any other person, and which has remained unclaimed
  for a period of two years by the  person  or  persons  appearing  to  be

  which  exist  or  may  exist with respect to such property to the extent
  provided in section fourteen hundred four of this chapter.
