86.226  Filing of certificate of amendment or judicial decree of amendment; effective date.

      1.  A signed certificate of amendment, or a certified copy of a judicial decree of amendment, must be filed with the Secretary of State. A person who signs a certificate as an agent, officer or fiduciary of the limited-liability company need not exhibit evidence of his or her authority as a prerequisite to filing.

      3.  If a certificate specifies an effective date and if the resolution of the members approving the proposed amendment provides that one or more managers or, if management is not vested in a manager, one or more members may abandon the proposed amendment, then those managers or members may terminate the effectiveness of the certificate by filing a certificate of termination with the Secretary of State that:

      (a) Is filed before the effective date specified in the certificate or judicial decree filed pursuant to subsection 1;

      (b) Identifies the certificate being terminated;
