    (a) A corporation’s articles may be amended without board approval or approval by the members or approval required pursuant to section 10.30 of this title to carry out a plan of reorganization ordered or decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction under federal statute if the articles after amendment contain only provisions required or permitted by section 2.02 of this title.

    (1) the name of the corporation;
