48-249-907. Cancellation of certificate of authority.
(a) Certificate of cancellation. A foreign LLC may cancel its certificate of authority by filing a certificate of cancellation of certificate of authority with the secretary of state accompanied by a certificate from the commissioner of revenue that the foreign LLC has properly filed all reports and paid all taxes and penalties required by the revenue laws of this state. The certificate of cancellation shall set forth the following:
(1) The current name of the foreign LLC, and, if different, the name under which it transacts business in this state;
(2) The name of the jurisdiction under the laws of which it is formed;
(3) That it is not transacting business in this state, and that it surrenders its authority to transact business in this state;
(4) That it either continues its registered agent in this state, or revokes the authority of the registered agent to accept service on its behalf, and appoints the secretary of state as its agent for service of process in any proceeding based on a cause of action arising during the time it was authorized to transact business in this state;
(5) A mailing address to which the secretary of state may mail a copy of any process served on the secretary of state under subdivision (a)(4); and
(6) A commitment to notify the secretary of state in the future of any change in the mailing address set forth under subdivision (a)(5).
(b) Service After Cancellation. After cancellation of the certificate of authority of the foreign LLC, service of process on the secretary of state, or the continued registered agent under this section, is service on the foreign LLC. Upon receipt of process, the secretary of state shall comply with the provisions of § 48-249-113; provided, however, that the mailing address set forth under subdivision (a)(5), as it may be changed under subdivision (a)(6), shall be deemed to be the principal executive office of the foreign LLC for purposes of the compliance with the provisions of § 48-249-113 by the secretary of state.
