Commentary

A reservation of entity name under the Texas Business Organizations Code (BOC) is effective until the 121st day after the date the application for reservation is accepted for filing unless the applicant files with the secretary of state a notice of withdrawal of the reservation (BOC § 5.104). This form should be used when an applicant wishes to withdraw an existing name reservation during the period of its effectiveness.

Instructions for Form

Reservation Information: Set forth the entity name on the reservation that is being withdrawn. In addition, set forth the date of filing and file number of the reservation being withdrawn.
Execution: The notice of withdrawal should be signed by the applicant on the original name reservation or any renewal thereof. Before signing, please read the statements on this form carefully. A person commits an offense under section 4.008 of the BOC if the person signs or directs the filing of a filing instrument the person knows is materially false with the intent that the instrument be delivered to the secretary of state for filing. The offense is a Class A misdemeanor unless the person’s intent is to harm or defraud another, in which case the offense is a state jail felony.
