Commission to become public corporation.
To become a public corporation, the Governor, the Chairman of the Real Estate Commission, the Director of the state Building Commission, the Lieutenant Governor and the Speaker of the House, shall present to the Secretary of State an application signed by each of them which shall set forth (1) the name, official designation, and official residence of each of the applicants together with a certified copy of the document evidencing each applicant's right to office; (2) the date on which each applicant was inducted into office and the term of office of each of the applicants; (3) the name of the proposed public corporation, which shall be "Real Estate Commission Building Authority"; (4) the location of the principal office of the proposed public corporation, which shall be Montgomery, Alabama; and (5) any other matters relating to the incorporation which the applicants may choose to insert and which is not inconsistent with this article or the laws of the state, including any provisions necessary or appropriate to secure qualification as a nonprofit corporation exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The application shall be sworn and subscribed to by each of the applicants before an officer authorized by the laws of the state to take acknowledgements to deeds. The Secretary of State shall examine the application and, if he or she finds that it substantially complies with the requirements of this section and that the name proposed in the application is not identical with that of a person or other corporation in the state or so nearly similar thereto as to lead to confusion and uncertainty he or she shall receive and file it and record it in an appropriate book of records in the office of the Secretary of State.
