§ 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
