Sec. 34-431. (Formerly Sec. 34-81l). Foreign limited liability partnership: Annual report. (a) A foreign registered limited liability partnership authorized to transact business in this state shall file an annual report by electronic transmission with the office of the Secretary of the State which report shall be due upon the anniversary of such foreign registered limited liability partnership's certificate of authority pursuant to section 34-429. Upon request of a foreign registered limited liability partnership, the Secretary of the State may grant an exemption from the requirement to file an annual report by electronic transmission if the foreign registered limited liability partnership does not have the capability to file by electronic transmission or make payment in an authorized manner by electronic means or if other good cause is shown.

(b) Each annual report shall set forth: (1) The name of the foreign registered limited liability partnership and, if different, the name under which such foreign registered limited liability partnership transacts business in this state; (2) the address of the office required to be maintained in the state or other jurisdiction of the foreign registered limited liability partnership's organization by the laws of that state or jurisdiction or, if not so required, the address of its principal office; (3) the valid electronic mail address of the foreign registered limited liability partnership; (4) the name and address of the statutory agent; and (5) the foreign registered limited liability partnership's North American Industry Classification System Code.

(c) Each annual report shall be executed in accordance with section 34-410, and be accompanied by the filing fee established in section 34-413. The Secretary of the State shall deliver to each foreign registered limited liability partnership at its principal office or electronic mail address, as shown on the Secretary's records, notice that the annual report is due, but failure to receive such notice shall not relieve a foreign registered limited liability partnership of the requirement of filing the report as provided in this section.

(d) If any information required in the annual report, except for the foreign registered limited liability partnership's name, changes after the foreign registered limited liability partnership has filed its most current annual report and not later than thirty days preceding the month during which the limited liability partnership's next annual report becomes due, the foreign registered limited liability partnership shall file with the Secretary of the State an amended annual report, which shall meet the requirements set forth in subsection (b) of this section. The filing fee for an amended annual report is twenty-five dollars.
