(a) Correct a filed document if the filed document contains information that was incorrect at the time the document was delivered to the secretary of state for filing pursuant to this part 3; or

(b) Revoke a filed document pursuant to section 7-90-304(3) or revoke a filed document that was delivered to the secretary of state for filing in error.

<Text of par. (2)(a) effective ninety days following certification by the Secretary of State. See Historical and Statutory Notes.>

(a) Shall state the entity name of the entity to which the document relates or, if the entity to which the document relates does not have an entity name, shall state the true name of the entity, or, in the case of a trade name, shall state the trade name and the name of the person transacting business or conducting activities under such name, or, in the case of a statement of trademark registration or any other document relating to a statement of trademark registration, shall identify the statement of trademark registration in a manner satisfactory to the secretary of state, or, in the case of a commercial registered agent, shall state the name of the commercial registered agent as reflected in the records of the secretary of state;

(d) Shall state each such correction;

(d.5) Shall state each addition or deletion of information, if any; and

(e) Must, if it revokes a filed document, state that the filed document is revoked either pursuant to section 7-90-304(3) or because the filed document was delivered to the secretary of state for filing in error, whichever is applicable.

(3) Deleted by Laws 2003, Ch. 352, § 202, eff. July 1, 2004.

(4) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (4), a statement of correction is effective on the effective date of the filed document it corrects or revokes as such date is stated in the records of the secretary of state. As to persons relying on the filed document before it is corrected or revoked and adversely affected by the correction or revocation, a statement of correction is effective when filed. A statement of correction that corrects the effective date of a filed document to an earlier date is effective on such earlier date or on the date the filed document was filed in the records of the secretary of state as such date is stated in the records of the secretary of state, whichever is later. A statement of correction may not state a delayed effective date for the effectiveness of the statement of correction itself.
