47-34A-1005. Noncomplying name of foreign limited liability company. (a) A foreign limited liability company whose name does not comply with § 47-34A-105 may not obtain a certificate of authority until it adopts, for the purpose of transacting business in this state, an alternate name that complies with § 47-34A-105. A foreign limited liability company that adopts an alternate name under this subsection and obtains a certificate of authority with the alternate name need not comply with chapter 37-11 or § 47-34A-105. After obtaining a certificate of authority with an alternate name, a foreign limited liability company shall transact business in this state under the alternate name unless the company is authorized under chapter 37-11 or § 47-34A-105 to transact business in this state under another name.
(b) If a foreign limited liability company authorized to transact business in this state changes its name to one that does not comply with § 47-34A-105, it may not thereafter transact business in this state until it complies with subsection (a) and obtains an amended certificate of authority.
