(b) If the secretary of state finds that the articles of termination following administrative dissolution or revocation comply with the requirements of subsection (a), and if the articles are accompanied by a tax clearance for termination or withdrawal, then the secretary of state shall file the articles of termination following administrative dissolution or revocation. Upon such filing, the existence of the corporation shall cease. Unless a claim is barred pursuant to § 48-64-107 or § 48-64-108 , the termination of corporate existence shall not take away or impair any remedy to or against the corporation, its directors, officers or members, for any right or claim existing or any liability incurred, prior to such termination. Any such action or proceeding by or against the corporation may be prosecuted or defended by the corporation in its corporate name. The members, directors, and officers have the power to take such corporate or other action as may be appropriate to protect such remedy, right, or claim.
