IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR AGENT (ATTORNEY IN FACT)
Agent's Duties
When you accept the authority granted under this power of attorney, you establish a "fiduciary"
relationship with the principal. This is a special legal relationship that imposes on you legal
duties that continue until you resign or the power of attorney is terminated or revoked by the
principal or by operation of law. A fiduciary duty generally includes the duty to:
(1) act in good faith;
(2) do nothing beyond the authority granted in this power of attorney;
(3) act loyally for the principal's benefit;
(4) avoid conflicts that would impair your ability to act in the principal's best interest;
and
(5) disclose your identity as an agent or attorney in fact when you act for the principal
by writing or printing the name of the principal and signing your own name as
"agent" or "attorney in fact" in the following manner:
(Principal's Name) by (Your Signature) as Agent (or as Attorney in Fact)
In addition, the Durable Power of Attorney Act (Subtitle P, Title 2, Estates Code) requires you
to:
(1) maintain records of each action taken or decision made on behalf of the principal;
(2) maintain all records until delivered to the principal, released by the principal, or
discharged by a court; and
(3) if requested by the principal, provide an accounting to the principal that, unless
otherwise directed by the principal or otherwise provided in the Special
Instructions, must include:
(A) the property belonging to the principal that has come to your knowledge or
into your possession;
(B) each action taken or decision made by you as agent or attorney in fact;
(C) a complete account of receipts, disbursements, and other actions of you as
agent or attorney in fact that includes the source and nature of each
receipt, disbursement, or action, with receipts of principal and income
shown separately;
Statutory Durable Power of Attorney Page 5
(D) a listing of all property over which you have exercised control that
includes an adequate description of each asset and the asset's current
value, if known to you;
(E) the cash balance on hand and the name and location of the depository at
which the cash balance is kept;
(F) each known liability;
(G) any other information and facts known to you as necessary for a full and
definite understanding of the exact condition of the property belonging to
the principal; and
(H) all documentation regarding the principal's property.
Termination of Agent's Authority
You must stop acting on behalf of the principal if you learn of any event that terminates this
power of attorney or your authority under this power of attorney. An event that terminates this
power of attorney or your authority to act under this power of attorney includes:
(1) the principal's death;
(2) the principal's revocation of this power of attorney or your authority;
(3) the occurrence of a termination event stated in this power of attorney;
(4) if you are married to the principal, the dissolution of your marriage by court
decree of divorce or annulment;
(5) the appointment and qualification of a permanent guardian of the principal's
estate; or
(6) if ordered by a court, the suspension of this power of attorney on the appointment
and qualification of a temporary guardian until the date the term of the temporary
guardian expires.
Liability of Agent
The authority granted to you under this power of attorney is specified in the Durable Power of
Attorney Act (Subtitle P, Title 2, Estates Code). If you violate the Durable Power of Attorney
Act or act beyond the authority granted, you may be liable for any damages caused by the
violation or subject to prosecution for misapplication of property by a fiduciary under Chapter 32
of the Texas Penal Code.
