Appointment of Agent
Section 1.01 Appointment
I appoint Sara D. Wiener and David S. Burnham as my Agents (collectively, my Agent).
Any one of my Agents may act alone and without the approval or consent of any other
successor Agent regarding a matter or may act jointly with any other Agent. If any Agent
fails to serve, no further Agent need be appointed unless there is no Agent serving.
Section 1.02 Prior or Joint Agent Unable to Act
A successor Agent or an Agent serving jointly with another Agent may establish that the
acting Agent or joint Agent is no longer able to serve as Agent, by signing an affidavit
that states that the Agent is not available or is incapable of acting. The affidavit may (but
need not) be supported by a death certificate of the Agent, a certificate showing that a
guardian or conservator has been appointed for the Agent, a letter from a physician
stating that the Agent is incapable of managing his or her own affairs, or a letter from the
Agent stating his or her unwillingness to act or delegating his or her power to the
successor Agent.
