About this template
What is this template?
This is a specific power of attorney for company formation, not a general power of attorney for all financial affairs. It contains specific authorizations for subscribing to shares and modifying a Memorandum of Association.
When should you use it?
Use this when promoters need an agent to file incorporation papers with the Registrar of Companies; use a Board Resolution instead if the promoter is a corporation.

Mostly US and UK law. Some templates use general commercial terms that work across jurisdictions, and many note which law they're written for.
It depends on the situation. Templates work well for routine business agreements. For anything involving significant money, complex IP, employment, or areas you're unsure about, it's worth getting professional advice before you sign. GitLaw provides templates and tools, not legal advice.
Open any template in GitLaw and describe the change you want in the chat — 'make clause 4 mutual' or 'add a 30-day notice period', for example. GitLaw drafts the revised language and shows it as a suggested edit. You accept, reject, or keep editing from there.
