    In subsection (a), the word ``have'' is substituted for ``maintain'' 
for consistency in the revised title. The words ``at all times'' are 
omitted as unnecessary. The words ``to receive'' are substituted for 
``authorized to accept'', and the words ``is notice to or service on'' 
are substituted for ``shall be deemed sufficient notice or service 
upon'', for consistency in the revised title.
    In subsection (b), the words ``precedent'' and ``or conferred'' are 
omitted as unnecessary. The words ``file, with the secretary of state or 
other designated official'' are substituted for ``serve notice upon the 
secretary of state, or similar officer'' for consistency in the revised 
title.
