Chapters 51-68 of this title apply to all domestic nonprofit corporations in existence on January 1, 1988, that were incorporated under any general statute of this state providing for incorporation of nonprofit corporations. Chapters 51-68 of this title shall, however, not apply to corporations, the charters of which were granted by special legislative act prior to the adoption of the Constitution of 1870. Such corporations may amend their charters for any purposes consistent with chapters 51-68 of this title and in the manner set out in chapters 51-68 of this title. Such amendments and the particular rights, obligations, duties, and privileges conferred or imposed by the amendments shall be subject to § 48-51-102.
Section 48-52-102(a) does not apply to the charter of any corporation existing on January 1, 1988, unless and until a charter amendment is filed. The first charter amendment filed by a corporation following January 1, 1988, shall include any information required by § 48-52-102(a) not otherwise on file in the office of the secretary of state, except that the name and address of each incorporator may be excluded, and the information required by § 48-52-102(a)(4) shall be provided for the current registered agent and registered office. Until such a charter amendment is filed, a corporation's registered agent shall be that agent specified in the office of the secretary of state on January 1, 1988, and such corporation's registered office shall be deemed to be that office specified as the address of its registered agent unless such agent or office is changed thereafter pursuant to chapter 55 or 65 of this title.
Chapters 51-68 of this title shall not apply to municipal corporations; provided, that this chapter shall apply to any public governmental corporation or authority created by or established under the authority of a municipal corporation or county or both for the performance of public functions, including industrial development boards created pursuant to title 7.
Chapter 523, § 1 (3.06 - 3.11) of the Acts of 1968, as amended, in effect on January 1, 1988, shall apply to any claims, applications, or proceedings for indemnification, or any corporate action authorizing indemnification, made or begun before January 1, 1988.
Chapter 523, § 1 (12.01 - 12.12, 12.14) of the Acts of 1968 and chapter 66, §§ 1 and 2 of the Acts of 1969, in effect on January 1, 1988, shall apply to any dissolution as to which a statement of intent to dissolve has been filed or a court proceeding filed before January 1, 1988.
