Articles of incorporation, amendment, consolidation, merger, conversion, or dissolution, as the case may be, when executed and acknowledged and accompanied by such affidavits as may be required by applicable provisions of this chapter, shall be presented to the secretary of state for filing in the records of the office of the secretary of state. If the secretary of state shall find that the articles presented conform to the requirements of this chapter, the secretary of state shall, upon the payment of the fees as in this chapter provided, file the articles so presented in the records of the office of the secretary of state and, upon such filing, the incorporation, amendment, consolidation, merger, conversion or dissolution provided for therein shall be in effect. The secretary of state immediately upon the filing in the office of the secretary of state of any articles pursuant to this chapter shall transmit a certified copy thereof to the county clerk of the county in which the principal office of each cooperative or corporation affected by such incorporation, amendment, consolidation, merger, conversion, or dissolution shall be located. The clerk of any county, upon receipt of any such certified copy, shall file and index the same in the records of the clerk's office, but the failure of the secretary of state or of a clerk of a county to comply with this section shall not invalidate such articles. This section shall also apply to certificates of election to dissolve and affidavits of compliance executed pursuant to § 65-29-118(b)(2).
