After filing a document, except as provided in Sections 16-10a-1510 and 16-10a-1608, the division shall deliver the accompanying copy, with the receipt for any filing fees, to the domestic or foreign corporation for which the filing is made, or its representative, at the address indicated on the filing, or at the address the division determines to be appropriate.

(4)(b) relate to the correctness or incorrectness of information contained in the document; or
(4)(c) create a presumption that the document is valid or invalid or that information contained in the document is correct or incorrect.
