Exhibit E, titled "AGENCY AGREEMENT / AUTHORIZATION FOR PROPERTY MANAGER TO ACT ON BEHALF OF OWNER," is a certification form designed for lessors in government lease agreements. Its primary purpose is to formally attest that a designated property manager has the legal authority to act on behalf of the owner in all matters related to a government lease. This includes signing the lease and any amendments, collecting payments, managing property maintenance, and executing a release of obligations to the United States. The document requires the owner to print their name, the property's address, the agent's name, and then provide their signature, printed name, and title. This form ensures that all actions taken by the property manager regarding the lease are legally binding and authorized by the property owner, providing clarity and legal standing in federal, state, and local government procurement processes involving leased properties.
