226.13 Plaintiff’s lien. The plaintiff shall, to the extent of the final judgment, have a lien upon all the property and interests of the foreign corporation from the time of the filing of the complaint in the action, unless the foreign corporation files with the clerk an undertaking, in double the amount claimed to be due to the plaintiff, executed by 2 or more sureties in the corporation’s behalf, resident freeholders of this state, to the effect that the corporation will satisfy the final judgment that may be recovered in favor of the plaintiff in the action within 60 days from the date the judgment is rendered.
The undertaking is of no effect unless accompanied by the affidavit of the sureties under s. 808.07 .

(1m), the court shall require the plaintiff to specify the amount of money claimed and provide that information to the court and to the other parties.
