The corporation must name an agent in the District of Columbia to accept legal papers on its behalf. Giving notice to that agent, or mailing it to the agent's business address, counts as giving notice to the corporation itself.

The corporation must have a designated agent in the District of Columbia. That agent's job is to receive legal papers — what the law calls "service of process" — on the corporation's behalf. If someone gives notice to the agent, or serves papers on the agent, or mails papers to the agent's business address, the law treats that as if it were given directly to the corporation.
