§1301-C
1. Failure to file annual report; penalty. A domestic or foreign corporation that is required to deliver an annual report for filing, as provided by section 1301, that fails to deliver its properly completed annual report to the Secretary of State shall pay, in addition to the regular annual report fee, the late filing penalty described in section 1401, subsection 34, as long as the report is received by the Secretary of State prior to administrative dissolution or revocation. Upon a corporation's failure to file the annual report and to pay the annual report fee or the penalty, the Secretary of State, notwithstanding Title 4, chapter 5 and Title 5, chapter 375, shall revoke a foreign corporation's authority to carry on activities in this State and administratively dissolve a domestic corporation.

A domestic corporation that has been administratively dissolved under section 1113 must follow the requirements set forth in section 1114 to reinstate.
