The fix is to declare t2 global at the top of Proc:
    def Proc(text):
        global t2
        ...
But please don't.  The global declaration is a wart of Python, and in 
most cases, your code will be much cleaner if you avoid it.  Certainly 
in this case, making t2 a local of the function is much more sensible. 
If you stick with your current implementation (which I advise against), 
you should write it something like:

def proc(text):
    t2 = ""
    ...
    # your Proc code here
    ...
    return t2
