(a) A partnership whose statement of qualification or statement of foreign qualification has been canceled pursuant to § 15-111(d) or § 15-111(i)(4) of this title may apply to the Secretary of State for reinstatement after the effective date of the cancellation. The application must state:
(1) The name of the partnership and the effective date of the cancellation and, if such name is not available at the time of reinstatement, the name under which the statement of qualification or statement of foreign qualification is to be reinstated; and
(2) That the partnership has obtained and designated a new registered agent as required by § 15-111(a) of this title and the name and address of such new registered agent and the address of the partnership's registered office in the State of Delaware.
(b) A cancellation of a partnership's statement of qualification or statement of foreign qualification pursuant to § 15-111(d) and (i)(4) of this title only affects a partnership's status as a limited liability partnership or a foreign limited liability partnership and is not an event of dissolution of the partnership.
(c) A reinstatement under subsection (a) of this section relates back to and takes effect as of the effective date of the cancellation, and the partnership's status as a limited liability partnership or a foreign limited liability partnership continues as if the cancellation had never occurred.
