If the secretary of state determines that one (1) or more grounds exist under § 48-24-201 for dissolving a corporation, the secretary of state shall serve the corporation with notice of the secretary of state's determination under §§ 48-15-104 and 48-15-105, except that such determination may be sent by first class mail.
If the corporation does not correct each ground for dissolution or demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the secretary of state that each ground determined by the secretary of state does not exist within two (2) months after service of the communication is perfected under §§ 48-15-104 and 48-15-105, the secretary of state shall administratively dissolve the corporation by signing a certificate of dissolution that recites the ground or grounds for dissolution and its effective date. The secretary of state shall file the original of the certificate and serve a copy on the corporation under §§ 48-15-104 and 48-15-105, except that the certificate may be sent by first class mail.
