§ 46-3-480. Requirement of annual reports by electric membership corporation and foreign electric cooperative.
Each electric membership corporation and each foreign electric cooperative authorized to transact business in this state shall file, within the time prescribed by this article, an annual report setting forth: The name of the electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative and the jurisdiction under the laws of which it is incorporated; The address of the registered office of the electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative in this state and the name of its registered agent in this state at such address and, in the case of a foreign electric cooperative, the address of its principal office or registered office in the jurisdiction under the laws of which it is incorporated; The names and respective addresses of the three principal officers of the electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative; and Such additional information as may be necessary or appropriate as determined by the Secretary of State for the performance of his duties under this article. Such annual report shall be made on forms prescribed by the Secretary of State; and the information therein contained shall be given as of the date of the execution of the report. The Secretary of State shall mail such report forms to the last known address of each electric membership corporation and foreign electric cooperative; however, the failure of any electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative to receive such forms shall not relieve that electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative of its responsibility to obtain appropriate forms, to complete them, and to file them with the Secretary of State. In the event an electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative has not filed a report within two previous calendar years, the Secretary of State shall not be required to mail to such electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative the required forms. The report shall be executed for the electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative by its president, a vice-president, secretary, an assistant secretary, treasurer, or an assistant treasurer. If the electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative is in the hands of a receiver or trustee, the report shall be executed on behalf of the electric membership corporation or foreign electric cooperative by such receiver or trustee. (Code 1933, § 34C-1301, enacted by Ga. L. 1981, p. 1587, § 1.)
