9004 - Certificates; Corrections.

§ 9004. Certificates; corrections. Any certificate or other instrument
relating to a corporation filed by the superintendent under this chapter
may be corrected with respect to any informality or error apparent on
the face or defect in the execution thereof, including the deletion of
any material not permitted to be stated therein. A certificate, entitled
" Certificate of correction of ........... (correct title of certificate
and name of corporation) " shall be signed, verified or acknowledged as
provided in this chapter with respect to the instrument being corrected
and delivered to the superintendent. It shall set forth the name of the
corporation or foreign corporation, the date the instrument to be
corrected was filed by the superintendent, the provision in the
instrument as corrected or eliminated and if the execution was
defective, the proper execution. The filing of the certificate by the
superintendent shall not alter the effective time of the instrument
being corrected, which shall remain as its original effective date, and
shall not affect any right or liability accrued or incurred before such
filing. The name of the corporation or foreign corporation may not be
changed or corrected under this section.
