    The  attorney-general  may  bring  an  action  to  restrain  a foreign
  corporation  from  conducting  in  this  state  without  authority   any
  activities  for  the conduct of which it is required to be authorized in
  the state, or from conducting in this state any activities not set forth
  in its application for authority or certificate of  amendment  filed  by
  the  department  of  state.  The attorney-general may bring an action or
  special proceeding to annul the authority of a  foreign  corporation  to
  conduct  in  this  state any activities not set forth in its application
  for authority or certificate of amendment or the authority of which  was
  obtained  through  fraudulent  misrepresentation  or  concealment  of  a
  material fact or to  enjoin  or  annul  the  authority  of  any  foreign
  corporation  which within this state contrary to law has done or omitted
  any act which if done by a domestic corporation would be a cause for its
  dissolution under section 1101 (Attorney-general's action  for  judicial
  dissolution) or to annul the authority of a foreign corporation that has
  been   dissolved  or  has  had  its  authority  or  existence  otherwise
  terminated or cancelled in the jurisdiction of  its  incorporation.  The
  attorney-general  shall  deliver  a  certified  copy  of  the  order  of
  annulment to the department of state.  Upon the filing  thereof  by  the
  department  of state the authority of the foreign corporation to conduct
  activities in this state shall be annulled. The secretary of state shall
  continue as agent of the foreign corporation upon whom  process  against
  it  may  be  served  in  any action or special proceeding based upon any
  liability or obligation incurred by the foreign corporation  within  the
  state  prior  to  the  filing  of  the  certified  copy  of the order of
  annulment by the department of state.
