Existing law requires certain business entities, including, but not limited to, a corporation, a limited partnership, a foreign corporation, a foreign limited partnership, a limited liability partnership, a foreign limited liability partnership, a flexible purpose corporation, a limited liability company, an unincorporated association, and a credit union, to make various filings with the Secretary of State. Existing law authorizes agents designated for service of process for specified entities to file a written statement of resignation as that agent with the Secretary of State. Existing law allows a person to apply for and reserve a name for a business entity with the Secretary of State. Existing law requires the Secretary of State to reinstate a fraudulently terminated business entity upon court order. This bill, among other things, would require the written statement of resignation to be made on a form prescribed by the Secretary of State for filing, as specified, and would allow the Secretary of State to destroy or otherwise dispose of a resignation after a new form is filed, replacing the agent. This bill would allow a person to cancel the registration of the name of specified business entities by delivering to the Secretary of State a certificate of cancellation of the entity's name on a form prescribed by the Secretary of State. This bill would require a foreign limited liability company that adopts a new name to relinquish an alternate name, as provided. This bill would additionally condition reinstatement of a fraudulently terminated business entity upon the business entity concurrently submitting for filing an amendment to change its name to eliminate conflict, if there is a conflict with the entity name, as provided. This bill would incorporate additional changes to Sections 1155 and 3304 of the Corporations Code proposed by SB 1301 that would become operative only if this bill and SB 1301 are both chaptered and this bill is chaptered last.
