subscriber for shares, incorporator or the attorney-general, may suspend
or annul the dissolution or continue the liquidation of the corporation
under the supervision of the court and may make all such orders as it

(3) The determination of the validity and amount or invalidity of any
claims which have been presented to the corporation.

filed claims as provided in any such notice, or whose claims have been

(5) The determination and enforcement of the liability of any
director, officer, shareholder or subscriber for shares, to the

(b) Orders under this section may be entered ex parte, except that if
such special proceeding was not instituted upon petition of the
corporation, notice shall be given to the corporation in such manner as
the court may direct. Notice shall be given to such other persons
interested, and in such manner, as the court may deem proper, of any
hearings and of the entry of any orders on such matters as the court
shall deem proper. All orders made by the court under this section shall
be binding upon the attorney-general, the corporation, its officers,
directors, shareholders, subscribers for shares, incorporators,
creditors and claimants.

(c) (1) Simultaneously with the institution of such special proceeding
for annulment of the dissolution, the petitioner shall apply to the
department of state to reserve the corporation name to the corporation.
If such name shall not be available for use, the petitioner forthwith
upon being notified thereof shall apply to such department for the
reservation of another and available name and any judgment or order of
annulment made in such proceeding shall order and direct the petitioner
to execute a certificate of change of the corporate name to such other
name.

(2) The clerk of the court, or such other person as the court may
direct, shall transmit a certified copy of the judgment or order of
annulment of the dissolution, together with the certificate of change of
corporate name in the appropriate case, to the department of state, and
a certified copy of such judgment or order to the clerk of the county in
which the office of the corporation was located on the date of the
dissolution. Upon filing by the department of state, the annulment of
dissolution shall be effected.
