Articles Of Merger {56363}

State Form 56363 - ARTICLES OF MERGER. This form is used to officially document the merger of two or more business entities in Indiana. It is required to be filed with the Secretary of State when a business is merging with another, either to create a new entity or to consolidate under an existing entity. The form outlines key details of the merger, such as the names and types of the merging entities, the jurisdiction of their formation, and the name and type of the surviving entity. It also includes information about the registered agent for the surviving entity, the effective date of the merger, and any additional information regarding amendments to the surviving entity's records or addresses for foreign entities. The filing fee for for-profit entities is $90.00. Following the completion of the merger, all assumed names of the non-surviving entity will be cancelled and available for use. If the surviving entity wishes to operate under any of the assumed names owned by the non-surviving entity, the surviving entity must file a Certificate of Assumed Business Name (State Form 30353) for each assumed name along with the Articles of Merger. Failure to do so may result in the assumed name being unavailable for use, as assumed names must now be distinguishable upon the record of the Secretary of State. www.FormsWorkflow.com
