Amends the Business Corporation Act of 1983 and the General Not For Profit Corporation Act of 1986. Requires the president, vice-president, secretary, assistant secretary, treasurer, or other officer duly authorized by a corporation's board of directors to execute and verify (rather than execute) certain documents required to be filed in the office of the Secretary of State.

Provides that the name of a series with limited liability must commence with the entire name of the limited liability company, as set forth in its articles of organization (rather than articles of incorporation) and be distinguishable from the names of the other series set forth in the articles of organization.
