42:2A-69 Annual report to the State Treasurer by domestic limited partnerships.

66. Annual report to the State Treasurer by domestic limited partnerships.

a. Every domestic limited partnership authorized in this State shall file in the Department of the Treasury, within the time prescribed by this section, an annual report, executed on behalf of the limited partnership or executed by the registered agent setting forth:

1. The name of the limited partnership;

2. The address, including the actual location as well as the postal designation, if different, of the registered agent in this State; and

3. The name of the registered agent.

b. The State Treasurer shall designate a date of filing annual reports for each limited partnership required to submit a report pursuant to this section.

c. If the report is not filed for two consecutive years, the certificate of limited partnership shall, after written demand for the reports by the State Treasurer by mail addressed to the limited partnership at the last address appearing of record in the office of the State Treasurer, remain filed but be transferred to an inactive list. A limited partnership shall not have its certificate of limited partnership transferred to the inactive list if it shall, within 60 days after the written demand, file the reports required by law and pay to the State Treasurer the fee provided by law for the filing of each report.

d. (1) Any domestic limited partnership on the inactive list may return to active status by:

(a) Paying to the State Treasurer the current annual report fee, all delinquent annual report fees, and a reinstatement filing fee of $75;

(b) Submitting a certificate of amendment adopting a name which complies with paragraph (4) of subsection a. of section 6 of P.L.1983, c.489 (C.42:2A-6), if the name of the inactive limited partnership does not comply with paragraph (4) of subsection a. of section 6; and

(c) A tax clearance certificate if the reinstatement is filed two or more years after a limited partnership has been placed on the inactive list.

(2) The State Treasurer shall provide the forms necessary to effect annual report reinstatements.

e. A limited partnership whose certificate has been transferred to the inactive list shall remain a limited partnership formed under this chapter or under R.S.42:2-1 et seq., but no name reservations, transfers of reserved names, or certificates of amendment may be filed until the limited partnership whose certificate has been placed on the inactive list regains active status. A limited partner of a limited partnership is not liable as a general partner of the limited partnership solely by reason of the transfer of the certificate of limited partnership to the inactive list.

f. The State Treasurer shall furnish annual report forms, shall keep all the reports and shall prepare an index thereof. The reports shall be open to public inspection at proper hours.
