(a) If a bond is obtained, a copy of it shall be filed with the Office of the Secretary of State.

(b) The required bond shall be in favor of the State of Illinois for the benefit of any person who is damaged by any violation of this Act.

The aggregate liability of the surety to all persons damaged by a credit services organization's violation of this Act shall in no event exceed the amount of the bond.

(c) The bond shall be in the amount of $100,000 and shall be maintained for a period of 2 years after the date that the credit services organization ceases operations.
