C. If a registered agent changes the street address of the registered agent's business office, the registered agent may change the street address of the registered office of any limited liability company corporation for which the registered agent is the registered agent by notifying the limited liability company in writing of the change and signing, either manually or in facsimile, and delivering to the public regulation commission [secretary of state] for filing a statement that complies with the requirements of this section but need not be responsive to Paragraph (4) of Subsection B of this section and recites that the corporation has been notified of the change. D. If the public regulation commission [secretary of state] finds that the statement conforms to the provisions of this section, it shall file the statement in its office and, upon such filing, the change of registered agent, change of address of the registered office or change of the registered agent's place of business shall become effective and fulfill any requirement that such change be reported to the commission [secretary of state].

A registered agent of a limited liability company may resign as registered agent by delivering a written notice, executed in duplicate, to the public regulation commission [secretary of state], which shall mail a copy of the notice to the limited liability company at its principal place of business as shown on the records of the commission [secretary of state]. The resigning registered agent's appointment terminates thirty days after receipt of the notice by the commission [secretary of state] or on the effective date of the appointment of a successor registered agent, whichever occurs first.
