(a) the name of the agent as currently listed under 35-7-106(1);

(b) if the name of the agent has changed, its new name;

(c) if the address of the agent has changed, the new address; and

(d) if the type or jurisdiction of organization of the agent has changed, the new type or jurisdiction of organization.
