2INSTRUCTIONS FOR FILING NAME REGISTRATION
BEFORE you fill out the application: Your corporate name can be registered only if it is available –

reserved or filed. Before you prepare this application, call the Corporations Division at (304) 558-8000 to
find out if your name is available. A telephone check on availability of a name is NOT a guarantee.
