§ 121-202-A. Certificate of change. (a) A certificate of limited

partnership may be changed by filing with the department of state a

certificate of change entitled "Certificate of Change of ..... (name of

limited partnership) under Section 121-202-A of the Revised Limited

Partnership Act" and shall be signed and delivered to the department of

state. A certificate of change may (i) specify or change the location of

the limited partnership's office; (ii) specify or change the post office

address to which the secretary of state shall mail a copy of process

against the limited partnership served upon him; (iii) specify, change

or delete the email address to which the secretary of state shall email

a notice of the fact that process against the limited partnership has

been electronically served upon him or her; and (iv) make, revoke or

change the designation of a registered agent, or to specify or change

the address of its registered agent. It shall set forth:

(1) the name of the limited partnership, and if it has been changed,

the name under which it was formed;

(2) the date its certificate of limited partnership was filed by the

department of state; and

(3) each change effected thereby.

(b) A certificate of change which changes only the post office address

to which the secretary of state shall mail a copy of any process against

a limited partnership served upon him or her, the email address to which

the secretary of state shall email a notice of the fact that process

against it has been electronically served upon the secretary of state,

and/or the address of the registered agent, provided such address being

changed is the address of a person, partnership or corporation whose

address, as agent, is the address to be changed, and/or the email

address being changed is the email address of a person, partnership or

other corporation whose email address, as agent, is the email address to

be changed, or who has been designated as registered agent for such

limited partnership shall be signed and delivered to the department of

state by such agent. The certificate of change shall set forth the

statements required under subdivision (a) of this section; that a notice

of the proposed change was mailed to the domestic limited partnership by

the party signing the certificate not less than thirty days prior to the

date of delivery to the department of state and that such domestic

limited partnership has not objected thereto; and that the party signing

the certificate is the agent of such limited partnership to whose

address the secretary of state is required to mail copies of process,

and/or the agent to whose email address the secretary of state is

required to email a notice of the fact that process against it has been

electronically served upon the secretary of state, and/or the registered

agent, if such be the case. A certificate signed and delivered under

this subdivision shall not be deemed to effect a change of location of

the office of the limited partnership in whose behalf such certificate

is filed.
