What is a Power Of Attorney Agreement?

A power of attorney agreement is a legal document that allows one person to make decisions for another. This can be done in general or specific cases, and there are two types: limited and durable. The former only covers the scope given within the contract, while the latter has no expiration date.

When making business deals, many different contracts need to be signed before anything gets started. For example, a power of attorney agreement can give a party a great deal of power over another, so it’s important to consider the needs of this contract.

KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS:
COUNTY OF DALLAS
  §    

I, Christina Weaver Vest, do hereby appoint Robert M. Swartz of Dallas, County, Texas, and Thomas O. Hicks, Jr. of Dallas County, Texas, my true and lawful attorneys-in-fact (each an “Attorney-in-Fact” and, collectively, the “Attorneys-in-Fact”), each, individually or jointly, to have full power to act in my name, place and stead and on my behalf to do and execute all or any of the following acts, deeds and things:

  1)  
To execute and file for and on behalf of me, in my capacity as one or more of an officer, director, or significant stockholder of Hicks Acquisition Company II, Inc. or any of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), reports or other filings under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder, including without limitation, Forms 3, 4 and 5, including any amendments, corrections, supplements or other changes thereto;

  2)  
To do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of me which you (in your sole discretion) determine may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such reports or other filings and timely file same with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

  3)  
To take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foregoing which, in the sole opinion of such Attorney-in-Fact, may be of benefit to, in the interest of, or legally required by me, it being understood that the documents executed by such Attorney-in-Fact on behalf of me pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such Attorney-in-Fact’s discretion.

I hereby grant to each Attorney-in-Fact full power and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary, or proper to be done (in such Attorney-in-Fact’s sole discretion) in the exercise of any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as I might or could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that the Attorneys-in-Fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein granted. I acknowledge that the Attorneys-in-Fact, in serving in such capacity at my request, are not assuming, nor is the Company assuming, any of my responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until I am no longer subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to the my holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by me in a signed writing delivered to the Attorneys-in-Fact.

Liability. Each Attorney-in-Fact shall have no liability or obligation with respect to the powers granted herein except for and to the extent of such Attorney-in-Fact’s willful misconduct.

I am a business, Internet, and intellectual property lawyer. My practice is split between both transactional work and litigation.
