a) Matters deemed "errors" or "defects" for which a statement of correction may be filed are facts that have been misreported in a document filed with the Secretary of State's Office and do not include any other matter which in retrospect is considered a mistake or which as to the action reported reflects a subsequent event.

Any other matters shall not be the subject of a statement of correction but, in an appropriate case, shall be dealt with by articles of amendment.

d) Matters deemed errors or defects for which a statement of correction may be filed in a reservation of transfer of corporate name, an application to adopt, change or cancel an assumed corporate name, an application for registration or renewal of corporate name (foreign), a statement of change or notice of resignation of registered agent/office, or an application for reinstatement not including the corporate or assumed corporate name are those in the personal names or addresses reported therein, but not those alleged errors which would substitute or delete a person or party or address.
