Answer:

Never

Explanation:

After 5 minutes the chance is .35%

After 10 minutes the chance remains .35%

You can't add chances, like flipping a coin, the chance is not dependent of the previous outcome, just because you got heads the first time doesn't mean you'll get tails the second time even.
