(2) Deliver to the savings bank a bond, in form and in amount and with sureties satisfactory to the savings bank, indemnifying the savings bank against any liability, loss or expense which it might incur because of its recognition of the adverse claim or because of its refusal by reason of the claim to honor any application for withdrawal or deliver any property to or permit access to a safe deposit box by anyone described in division (A)(1) or (2) of this section.
