A. A corporation whose charter was revoked before January 1, 2015, may be
reinstated as provided in R.S. 12:1-1444 for a corporation that was terminated
administratively. Subject to the time limitation stated in Subsection F of this Section, a
corporation whose charter was revoked before January 1, 2015, may also be reinstated as
provided in Subsections B through E of this Section.
B. A corporation whose charter was revoked before January 1, 2015, may request
reinstatement by delivering to the secretary of state for filing articles of charter-revocation
reinstatement and the current annual report. The articles of charter-revocation reinstatement
and the annual report shall be signed by an officer or director of the corporation who is
entitled to approve articles of reinstatement under R.S. 12:1-1444(B). The annual report
shall be accompanied by a written consent to appointment signed by the registered agent
named in the annual report.
C. The articles of charter-revocation reinstatement shall state all of the following:
(1) The name of the corporation.
(2) That the charter of the corporation was revoked before January 1, 2015.
(3) That the reinstatement was approved by an officer or director who is entitled to
approve articles of reinstatement pursuant to R.S. 12:1-1444(B).
(4) That the corporation is reinstated, effective retroactively as if the corporation had
never been terminated.
D. If the corporation's name is no longer available for use, the secretary of state shall
file the articles of charter-revocation reinstatement only if the corporation also delivers for
filing articles of amendment that change the name of the corporation to a name that meets
the requirements of R.S. 12:1-401.
E. When the secretary of state files articles of charter-revocation reinstatement, the
existence of the corporation is reinstated retroactively, and the corporation continues to exist

Section only if the documents required by those Subsections, and entitled to filing pursuant
