  a  charitable  purpose  or  legally required to be used for a particular
  purpose, the distribution of such assets to  one  or  more  domestic  or
  foreign  corporations  or  other  organizations  engaged  in  activities

  substantially similar to those of the dissolved corporation,  on  notice
  to  the  attorney general and to such other persons, and in such manner,
  as the court may deem proper.
(b)  No order annulling a dissolution shall be made under this section
  if the name of the corporation whose dissolution is to be annulled is no
  longer available for use by such corporation,  unless  such  corporation
  submits  with  its  petition  for  the  annulment  of  the dissolution a
  certificate of reservation of another available name.
(c) Orders under this section may be entered ex parte, except that  if
  such  special  proceeding  was  not  instituted  upon  petition  of  the
  corporation, notice shall be given to the corporation in such manner  as
  the court may direct. Notice shall be given to other persons interested,
  and in such manner, as the court may deem proper, of any hearings and of
  the  entry of any orders on such matters as the court shall deem proper.
  All orders made by the court under this section shall  be  binding  upon
  the attorney-general, the corporation, its directors, officers, members,
  subscribers  for  capital  certificates,  incorporators,  creditors  and
  claimants.
