delaware llcannual taxlate penaltycancellation3-year clock

I missed the June 1 deadline on my Delaware LLC's $300 annual tax. Delaware Division of Corporations says there's a $200 late penalty plus 1.5% monthly interest. If I'm a year and a half late, what's the running tab, and when does the LLC actually get canceled?
