     Sec. 7. (a) A corporation's board of directors or, if the board of directors has not been selected, the incorporators may restate its articles of incorporation at any time with or without shareholder action.

     (b) The restatement may include one (1) or more amendments to the articles. If the restatement includes an amendment requiring shareholder approval, it must be adopted as provided in section 3 of this chapter.

     (c) If the board of directors submits a restatement for shareholder action, the corporation shall notify each shareholder, whether or not entitled to vote, of the proposed shareholders' meeting in accordance with IC 23-1-29-5. The notice must also state that the purpose, or one (1) of the purposes, of the meeting is to consider the proposed restatement and must contain or be accompanied by a copy of the restatement that identifies any amendment or other change it would make in the articles.

     (d) A corporation restating its articles of incorporation shall deliver to the secretary of state for filing articles of restatement setting forth the name of the corporation and the text of the restated articles of incorporation together with a certificate setting forth:

(1) whether the restatement contains an amendment to the articles requiring shareholder approval and, if it does not, that the board of directors adopted the restatement; or

(2) if the restatement contains an amendment to the articles requiring shareholder approval, the information required by section 6 of this chapter.

     (e) Duly adopted restated articles of incorporation supersede the original articles of incorporation and all amendments to them.

     (f) The secretary of state may certify restated articles of incorporation, as the articles of incorporation currently in effect, without including the certificate information required by subsection (d).
