SUMMARY
This amendment makes 2 changes.
It clarifies the language concerning making false statements on documents executed and filed with the office of the Secretary of State to identify that such an act is the crime of unsworn falsification, which is consistent with the current limited liability company laws and the current limited liability partnership laws.
This amendment also requires the minimum disclosure on the annual report of one person who can accept service of process on the entity when the agent has resigned without providing a new service of process contact, or when the agent cannot be located. Providing the name and address of a member, manager or other authorized person to accept service of process is consistent with the Model Registered Agents Act.
