(3) State that the domestic limited partnership's name satisfies the requirements of section 1308.   [PL 2005, c. 543, Pt. C, §2 (NEW).]
B. If the Secretary of State determines that the application contains the information required under this subsection and is accompanied by the reinstatement fee set forth in section 1460, subsection 6, and that the information is correct, the Secretary of State shall cancel the administrative dissolution and prepare a notice of reinstatement that recites that determination and the effective date of reinstatement. The Secretary of State shall use the procedures set forth in section 1399, subsection 10 to deliver the notice to the domestic limited partnership.   [PL 2007, c. 323, Pt. F, §25 (AMD); PL 2007, c. 323, Pt. G, §4 (AFF).]

C, §2 (NEW).]
[PL 2007, c. 323, Pt. F, §25 (AMD); PL 2007, c. 323, Pt. G, §4 (AFF).]
2.  Reinstatement after suspension.  A domestic limited partnership that was suspended before July 1, 2004 may apply to the Secretary of State for reinstatement.

(2) The application for reinstatement is accompanied by the reinstatement fee set forth in section 1460, subsection 6; and  
(3) The application for reinstatement is received by the Secretary of State by June 30, 2010.   [PL 2005, c. 543, Pt. C, §2 (NEW).]
B. A domestic limited partnership that fails to meet the requirements of this subsection is administratively dissolved and may not reinstate.   [PL 2005, c. 543, Pt. C, §2 (NEW).]
