signing, either manually or in facsimile, and delivering to the public regulation
commission [secretary of state] for filing a statement that complies with the
requirements of this section but need not be responsive to Paragraph (4) of Subsection

conforms to the provisions of this section, it shall file the statement in its office and,

of state] of a change in the street address of its principal place of business by delivering
a written statement to the commission [secretary of state] setting forth such change.
