     § 8951.  Amendment of certificate of organization.
        (a)  General rule.--The certificate of organization is
     amended by filing a certificate of amendment thereto in the
     Department of State. The certificate of amendment shall set
     forth:
            (1)  The name of the limited liability company.
            (2)  The date of filing of the original certificate of
        organization.
            (3)  The amendment to the certificate of organization.
            (4)  If the amendment is to be effective on a specified
        date, the hour, if any, and the month, day and year of the
        effective date.
        (b)  Limitation.--An amendment adopted under this section
     shall not amend the certificate of organization in such a way
     that as so amended it would not be authorized by this chapter as
     an original certificate of organization, except that:
            (1)  A restated certificate of organization shall,
        subject to section 109 (relating to name of commercial
        registered officer provider in lieu of registered address),
        state the address of the current instead of the initial
        registered office of the company in this Commonwealth and
        need not state the names and addresses of the organizers.
            (2)  The company shall not be required to revise any
        other provision of its certificate if the provision is valid
        and operative immediately prior to the filing of the
        amendment in the department.
        (c)  Effectiveness of certificate of amendment.--Upon the
     filing of the certificate of amendment in the department or upon
     the effective time specified in the certificate of amendment,
     whichever is later, the certificate of amendment shall become
     effective, and the certificate of organization shall be deemed
     to be amended accordingly.
        (d)  Cross references.--See sections 134 (relating to
     docketing statement), 135 (relating to requirements to be met by
     filed documents), 8907 (relating to execution of documents) and
     8942 (relating to voting).
