  • Holding meetings of members or carrying on internal company affairs
  • Maintaining bank accounts
  • Maintaining offices or agents for the transfer, exchange, and registration of the company's own securities
  • Selling through independent contractors

  • Securing or collecting debts and enforcing security interests, including holding, renting, and operating property acquired that way
  • Transacting business wholly in interstate commerce
  • Selling or transferring title to property in the state to another person
  • Conducting an isolated transaction completed within 30 days that is not one of repeated similar transactions
  • Investing in or acquiring royalties or other non-operating mineral or leasehold interests, and signing the instruments that go with owning them
