(b) If, in any proceeding, compliance by a partnership with the requirements of subsection (a) of this section is disputed, that issue shall be determined by the court, and the burden of proof of compliance shall be on the person who claims the limitation of liability in subsection (c), section six, article three of this chapter.

(d) A registered limited liability partnership is considered to be in compliance with subsection (a) of this section if the partnership provides $1 million of funds specifically designated and segregated for the satisfaction of judgments against the partnership or its partners based on the kinds of omissions, negligence, wrongful acts, misconduct and malpractice for which liability is limited by subsection (c), section six, article three of this chapter, by:
1. (1) Deposit in trust or in bank escrow of cash, bank certificates of deposit or United States Treasury obligations; or
2. (2) A bank letter of credit or insurance company bond.
