355.026. 1. Except as provided in subsection 2 of this section, a document is effective:

(1) On the date it is filed, as evidenced by the secretary of state's endorsement on the original document; or

(2) On the date specified in the document as its effective date, provided that a document shall not be effective prior to the date it is filed in the office of the secretary of state.
