Whenever a foreign corporation authorized to conduct affairs in New Mexico is a party to a statutory merger permitted by the laws of the state or country under the laws of which it is incorporated, it shall, within thirty days after the merger becomes effective, file with the corporation commission [secretary of state] a copy of the articles of merger duly certified by the proper officer of the state or country under the laws of which the statutory merger was effected. It shall not be necessary for such corporation to procure either a new or amended certificate of authority to conduct affairs in this state unless the name of the corporation is changed by the merger or unless the corporation desires to pursue in New Mexico other or additional purposes than those which it is then authorized to pursue in New Mexico or unless the surviving corporation is to conduct affairs in New Mexico but has not procured a certificate of authority to conduct affairs in this state.
