§ 1001. Plan of dissolution and distribution of assets. (a) The board shall adopt a plan for the dissolution of the corporation and the distribution of its assets. Such plan shall implement any provision in the certificate of incorporation prescribing the distributive rights of members. (b) If the corporation is a Type B, C or D corporation and has no assets to distribute and no liabilities at the time of dissolution, the plan of dissolution shall include a statement to that effect. (c) If the corporation is a Type B, C or D corporation with assets to distribute or liabilities, the plan of dissolution shall contain: (1) a description with reasonable certainty of the assets of the corporation and their fair value, and the total amount of debts and other liabilities incurred or estimated by the corporation, including the total amount of any accounting and legal fees incurred or estimated, in connection with the dissolution procedure. (2) a statement as to whether any gifts or other assets are legally required to be used for a particular purpose. (3) if there are assets received and held by the corporation for a purpose specified as Type B in paragraph (b) of section 201 (Purposes) or which are legally required to be used for a particular purpose, a statement that the assets owned by the corporation, subject to any unpaid liabilities of the corporation, shall be distributed as required by any gift instrument or to a charitable organization or organizations exempt from taxation pursuant to federal and state laws and engaged in activities substantially similar to those of the dissolved corporation. Each such recipient organization shall be identified and the governing instrument and amendments thereto of each of the proposed recipient organizations shall be annexed to such statement, along with the financial reports of each recipient organization for the last three years and a sworn affidavit from a director and officer of each recipient organization stating the purposes of the organization, and that it is currently exempt from federal income taxation.
