AI Summary

  • Amends the Oklahoma Limited Liability Company Act to permit formation of low-profit limited liability companies (L3Cs) that significantly further charitable or educational purposes and do not have income production as a significant purpose.

  • Requires L3Cs to state their status in articles of organization and include "low-profit limited liability company" or "L3C" in their company name.

  • Establishes that L3Cs automatically cease to be low-profit entities if they fail to meet statutory requirements, but continue as regular limited liability companies if they otherwise qualify.

  • Mandates that companies losing L3C status must change their name and amend articles of organization to comply with standard LLC naming requirements.

  • Provides that production of significant income or capital appreciation alone does not conclusively prove an L3C has an impermissible profit-making purpose.
