                                                             INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS
1. This Application for Certificate of Authority to Transact Business or Conduct Affairs must be used to procure a Certificate of Authority to
   Transact Business or Conduct Affairs in Michigan.  A document required or permitted to be filed under the act cannot be filed unless it
   contains the minimum information required by the act.  This is a legal document and agency staff cannot provide legal advice.
2. Submit one original of this document.  Upon filing, the document will be added to the records of the Corporations, Securities & Commercial Licensing
    Bureau.  The original will be returned to your registered office address unless you enter a different address in the box on the front of this document.
    Since this document will be maintained on electronic format, it is important that the filing be legible.  Documents with poor black and white contrast, or
    otherwise illegible, will be rejected.
3. This Application is to be used pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 10 of 1972 PA 284 or 1982 PA 162, by a foreign corporation for          the purpose of
    obtaining a Certificate of Authority to Transact Business or Conduct Affairs in this state.  If the foreign corporation subsequently changes any of the
    information set forth in the Application for Certificate of Authority,  it must file an Amended Application for Certificate of Authority to Transact Business
    in Michigan (form CSCL/CD-562 for use by foreign profit corporations or form CSCL/CD-565 for use by foreign nonprofit corporations          ) with the Bureau
    not later than 30 days after the time a change becomes effective.
4. Attach to this Application a certificate executed by the official of the jurisdiction having custody of corporate records stating that the corporation is in
    good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation.  The certificate cannot be dated earlier than 30 days prior to the date of receipt
    in this office.
5. Item 2 - A foreign corporation whose true name is not available for use in Michigan is permitted to apply for a Certificate of Authority under   an
    assumed name which is available for use and which becomes the corporation's name in Michigan to be used in all transactions and in its dealings
    with the administrator.  Item 2 of the Application for Certificate of Authority to Transact Business or Conduct Affairs in Michigan is to be completed
    for this purpose only.  Corporations may also transact business or conduct affairs under one or more assumed names by filing separate
    Certificates of Assumed Name.

6. Item 6 - This item should state only the specific business or affairs to be transacted or conducted in Michigan.  An all purpose activities statement is not
    permitted.  Foreign corporations cannot transact business or conduct affairs that a domestic corporation cannot lawfully transact or conduct.

7. Item 7 - Indicate the total authorized shares (not amount issued) from the Articles of Incorporation or most recent amendment.

    60,000 shares will be considered initially attributable to Michigan.  If shares attributable to Michigan increase to over 60,000, or are subsequently
    changed, the corporation shall file an amended application in accordance with section 1021.  To determine the total authorized shares attributable to
    Michigan, multiply the total authorized shares by the most recent appointment percentage from the Michigan tax return.
