Any corporation may amend its articles of incorporation by a majority

two-thirds (2/3) of its members, if it be a nonstock corporation, or, if it be a
stock corporation, by the vote or written assent of the stockholders repre-
senting at least two-thirds (2/3) of the subscribed capital stock of the
corporation. A copy of the articles of incorporation as amended, duly
certified to be correct by the president and the secretary of the corporation
and a majority of the board of directors or trustees, shall be filed in the
Department of Revenue and Taxation and attached to the original articles of
incorporation, and, from the time of filing such copy of the amended articles
of incorporation, the corporation shall have the same powers and the
members or stockholders thereof shall thereafter be subject to the same
liabilities as if such amendment had been embraced in the original articles
of incorporation; Provided, however, that the life of said corporation shall
not be extended by said amendment beyond the time fixed in the original
articles; And Provided, that the original articles and amended articles
together shall contain all provisions required by law to be set out in the
articles of incorporation; And Provided, further, that nothing in this section
shall be construed to authorize any corporation to increase or diminish its
capital stock or so as to affect any rights or actions which accrued to others
between the time of filing the original articles of incorporation and the filing
of the amended articles.
