I would think the principle would instruct their AIF to sign docs they've seen and approved with the TC/lender, that way when the affidavits come up, the AIF is affirming to information that the principle has reviewed with them.

:
: Person #2 holding a Power of Attorney
: from Person #1 can act and sign

:
: Person #2 has no "power" or

: "true and accurate"
: according to the mind, memory and

: which is why Person #2 cannot sign for
