    (a) A corporation involuntarily dissolved that has not distributed its assets under section 14.21 of this title may apply to the Secretary of State for reinstatement upon payment of $25.00 for each year the corporation is delinquent. The application must:

    (1) recite the name of the corporation and the effective date of its involuntary dissolution;

    (2) state that the ground or grounds for dissolution either did not exist or have been eliminated;

    (3) state that the corporation’s name satisfies the requirements of section 4.01 of this title.

    (b) If the Secretary of State determines that the application contains the information required by subsection (a) of this section and that the information is correct, the Secretary of State shall cancel the certificate of dissolution and prepare a certificate of reinstatement reciting that determination and the effective date of reinstatement, file the original of the certificate, and serve a copy on the corporation under section 5.04 of this title.

    (c) When reinstatement is effective, it relates back to and takes effect as of the effective date of the administrative dissolution and the corporation shall resume carrying on its activities as if the administrative dissolution had never occurred.
