When so acknowledged, the certificates may be filed with the secretary of state at any time thereafter within six months of the date of the last acknowledgment. The secretary of state, upon receipt of such instrument, shall indorse upon it the following:

The attorney-general shall without delay refer the same to the governor for his approval or disapproval. The governor shall return it to the secretary of state with his action indorsed thereon. If he approves it, the secretary of state shall record it in the record kept in his office for that purpose, and certify to the same under the great seal of this state, and transmit it to the applicants. If the governor disapproves it, the secretary of state shall file it in his office and notify the applicants of the disapproval and state the reasons therefor. If within thirty (30) days after the secretary of state has mailed the said notice they have not amended it so as to meet the approval of the governor, the secretary of state shall return the fee to the applicants, less the sum of three dollars ($3.00), which shall be paid into the state treasury for "charters examined, disallowed and filed." The powers specified in the charter shall, by the approval of the charter, be vested in the corporation and it shall go into operation without further formalities.
