This legal template, titled "Standard Ordinary Power of Attorney for Buyer of Shares (POA) under UK Law," is a document that outlines the powers granted to an appointed individual by a buyer of shares in the UK. The template is designed for individuals engaging in stock transactions who wish to authorize another person to act as their representative on their behalf in specific share-related matters.

The document begins by providing an introduction to the Power of Attorney (POA) concept, explaining its significance, and outlining the specific context in which it is being used, i.e., the buying and selling of shares in the UK. It then proceeds to define the various roles and parties involved, such as the buyer of shares (grantor) and the appointed representative (attorney-in-fact).

The template further describes the scope of powers that the buyer of shares intends to grant to the appointed representative. These enumerated powers may include, but are not limited to: executing stock purchase agreements, attending shareholder meetings, voting on behalf of the grantor, conducting research pertaining to investments, managing shares on electronic platforms, or any specific power relevant to the share-buying process.

Moreover, the legal template ensures that all parties involved comprehend the terms and conditions under which the power of attorney is granted, including any limitations or restrictions. It emphasizes the buyer's authority to revoke or amend the powers provided, the fiduciary responsibilities of the attorney-in-fact, and the requirement to act in the best interests of the grantor when making decisions related to share transactions.

Throughout the template, provisions are included to comply with the legal requirements of UK law. This includes referencing applicable statutes, such as the Powers of Attorney Act, 1971, or any subsequent relevant legislation.

By utilizing this legal template, both the buyer of shares and their appointed representative can establish a clear and legally binding agreement that outlines the powers, duties, and limitations within the realms of share trading. This template ensures that the power of attorney is tailored to adhere to UK legislation, providing a standardized and reliable mechanism for individuals engaged in UK share transactions to delegate authority.
