Section 58-1-57 - Application for permission to file corporate papers
A. After the capital structure has been fully subscribed, the organizers may apply to the director for permission to file with the state corporation commission [public regulation commission]. If no application for permission to file corporate papers is filed within one hundred eighty days following the filing of notice of intention, the application period may be extended for an additional one hundred eighty days, at the director's discretion. The agent for service shall submit a written request for extension prior to the expiration date of the original notice of intention and shall pay an extension fee of twenty-five hundred dollars ($2,500). The director shall respond to the written request for extension within five business days. All solicitation and collection activities concerning stock subscriptions shall be halted during the period following the expiration of the original notice of intention and shall resume only when the director approves the extension request. The organizers shall submit with the application:
(1) the proposed articles of incorporation in quadruplicate, in such form as the director prescribes, containing:
(a) the name of the state bank;
(b) if the state bank is to exercise trust powers, a statement to that effect;

(g) such other proper provisions to govern the business and affairs of the state bank as may be desired by the incorporators; and

(1) the name and residence of each subscriber and the number of shares for which he has subscribed; and
(2) the address at which it is proposed that the state bank do business or, if the address is not known, the area within the community in which it is proposed that the business be located.
