(g) That such change was authorized by resolution duly adopted by its trustees.

Such statement shall be executed by the foreign business trust by at least one (1) of its trustees, and verified and delivered to the Secretary of State. If the Secretary of State finds that such statement meets the requirements of this section, he shall file such statement in his office, and upon such filing the change of address of the registered office, or the appointment of new registered agent, or both, as the case may be, shall become effective.

Any registered agent of a foreign business trust may resign as such agent upon filing a written notice thereof, executed in duplicate, with the Secretary of State, who shall forthwith mail a copy thereof to the foreign business trust at its principal office in the state or country under the laws of which it is organized. The appointment of such agent shall terminate upon the expiration of thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice by the Secretary of State.
