501.812 Procedure for and effect of administrative dissolution.
1. If the secretary of state determines that one or more grounds exist under section 501.811 for dissolving a cooperative, the secretary of state shall serve the cooperative with written notice of the secretary of state’s determination under section 501.106.
2. If the cooperative 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 sixty days after service of the notice is perfected under section 501.106, the secretary of state shall administratively dissolve the cooperative 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 cooperative under section 501.106.
3. A cooperative administratively dissolved continues its existence but shall not carry on any business except that necessary to wind up and liquidate its business and affairs under section 501.805 and notify claimants under sections 501.807 and 501.808.
4. The administrative dissolution of a cooperative does not terminate the authority of its registered agent.
5. The secretary of state’s administrative dissolution of a cooperative pursuant to this section appoints the secretary of state the cooperative’s agent for service of process in any proceeding based on a cause of action which arose during the time the cooperative was authorized to transact business in this state. Service of process on the secretary of state under this subsection is service on the cooperative. Upon receipt of process, the secretary of state shall serve a copy of the process on the cooperative as provided in section 501.106. This subsection does not preclude service on the cooperative’s registered agent, if any.
