(1) The name of the corporation;
(2) The date that the revocation of dissolution proceedings was authorized;
(3) If the corporation's board of directors or incorporators revoked the dissolution proceedings, a statement to that effect;
(4) If the corporation's board of directors revoked the dissolution proceedings authorized by the shareholders, a statement that revocation was permitted by action by the board of directors alone pursuant to that authorization; and
(5) If shareholder action was required to revoke the dissolution proceedings, the information required by paragraph (3) of Code Section 14-2-1403.
