(a) The secretary of state shall reinstate a filing entity that has been involuntarily terminated under this subchapter if the entity files a certificate of reinstatement in accordance with Chapter 4 and:

(2) the secretary of state finds that the circumstances that led to the involuntary termination did not exist at the time of termination.
(b) A certificate of reinstatement filed under Subsection (a) must contain:
(1) the name of the filing entity;
(2) the filing number assigned by the filing officer to the entity;
(3) the effective date of the involuntary termination;
(4) a statement that the circumstances giving rise to the involuntary termination have been corrected; and
(5) the name of the entity's registered agent and the address of the entity's registered office.
(c) A certificate of reinstatement must be accompanied by:

(2) a tax clearance letter from the comptroller stating that the filing entity has satisfied all franchise tax liabilities and may be reinstated, if the filing entity is a taxable entity under Chapter 171, Tax Code, other than a nonprofit corporation.
