(1) A foreign nonprofit corporation with a valid foreign registration statement has the same but no greater rights and has the same but no greater privileges as, and except as provided by this chapter is subject to the same duties, restrictions, penalties, and liabilities now or later imposed on, a domestic nonprofit corporation of like character.

(2) This chapter does not authorize this state to regulate the organization or internal affairs of a registered foreign nonprofit corporation.
