[Powers Granted]
[Identify the Massachusetts-based notary or witnesses who will verify the Principal's capacity and signature?]
This clause identifies the person granting the power, known as the principal. It typically includes their full legal name, address, and other identifying information. This is legally important to ensure clarity on who is empowering the agent.
