An amendment to the certificate of incorporation does not affect a cause of action existing against or in favor of the corporation, a proceeding to which the corporation is a party or the existing rights of persons other than shareholders of the corporation. An amendment changing a corporation's name does not abate a proceeding brought by or against the corporation in its former name.(P.A. 94-186, S. 128, 215; P.A. 96-271, S. 95, 254.)History: P.A. 94-186 effective January 1, 1997; P.A. 96-271 replaced 'articles' of incorporation with 'certificate' of incorporation, effective January 1, 1997.
