Every corporation formed under laws other than the statutes of this state which is required by this chapter to obtain a license from the superintendent, and which itself or through an agent does any business in this state for which such license is required either without obtaining such license or after the revocation thereof, submits itself to the jurisdiction of the courts of this state and is deemed to have designated the superintendent as its agent upon whom process against it may be served, in any action or special proceeding arising out of or in connection with the doing of such business. Such process may issue in any court in this state having jurisdiction of the subject matter. 2. Service of such process upon the superintendent shall be made by personally delivering to and leaving with him or his deputy, or with any person authorized by the superintendent to receive such service, at the office of the superintendent, a copy of such process together with the statutory fee, which fee shall be a taxable disbursement.

Service of process shall be complete ten days after such papers are filed with the clerk of the court. The refusal to accept delivery of the registered mail or to sign the return receipt shall not affect the validity of the service and such foreign banking corporation refusing to accept such registered mail shall be charged with knowledge of the contents thereof. 4.
