Signature of attorney in fact as attestation; conclusive proof
Sec. 3. A signature of the attorney in fact that identifies the
principal and the attorney in fact, or a similar written disclosure, is
an attestation and is conclusive proof to a party relying on the
attestation, except a party with actual knowledge that the attestation
is false, that:
(1) the principal was competent at the time the power of
attorney was executed;
(2) the attorney in fact does not have actual knowledge of the
termination of the power of attorney;
(3) in the case of a successor attorney in fact, the original
attorney in fact has failed or ceased to serve, and the successor
attorney in fact is empowered to act on behalf of the principal;
and
(4) if the effective date of the power of attorney begins upon the
occurrence of a certain event, the event has occurred and the
attorney in fact is able to act under the power of attorney.
