(a) A corporation administratively dissolved under § 4-27-1421 may apply to the Secretary of State for reinstatement within two (2) years after the effective date of dissolution. The application must: (1) recite the name of the corporation and the effective date of its administrative dissolution; (2) state that the ground or grounds for dissolution either did not exist or have been eliminated; (3) state that the corporation's name satisfies the requirements of § 4-27-401 ; and (4) contain one (1) or more certificates from appropriate state taxing authorities reciting that all taxes owed by the corporation have been paid. (b) If the Secretary of State determines that the application contains the information required by subsection (a) of this section and that the information is correct, he or she shall cancel the certificate of dissolution and prepare a certificate of reinstatement that recites his or her determination and the effective date of reinstatement, file the original of the certificate, and serve a copy on the corporation. (c) When the reinstatement is effective, it relates back to and takes effect as of the date of the administrative dissolution and the corporation resumes carrying on its business as if the administrative dissolution had never occurred.
