A foreign limited liability company may cancel its registration by filing with the

to do so under the laws of the state or other jurisdiction of its organization, or,
if the foreign limited liability company is under the supervision of a receiver or
trustee, by the receiver or trustee on behalf of the foreign limited liability company.
In filing a certificate of cancellation, the foreign limited liability company revokes
the authority of its resident agent to accept service of process and consents that
service of process in any action, suit, or proceeding based upon any cause of action
arising in this state during the time the foreign limited liability company was authorized
to transact business in this state may subsequently be made on the foreign limited
liability company by service on the secretary of state. The certificate of cancellation
must include the post office address to which the secretary of state may mail a copy
of any process against the foreign limited liability company that is served on the
secretary of state.
