Such certified copies may be obtained ONLY from the Secretary of State.

Any change of registered agent must be by resolution adopted by the board of directors. This statement must then be signed by the president (or vice-president) and by the secretary (or an assistant secretary).

 

 

6.

The registered agent may report a change of the registered office of the corporation for which he or she is registered agent. When the agent reports such a change, this statement must be signed by the registered agent.
