decedent’s heirs and legatees, and other persons, corporations, or financial institutions relying upon this
affidavit who incur any loss because of reliance on this affidavit, up to the amount lost because of any act
or omission by me. I further understand that any person, corporation, or financial institution recovering
under this indemnification provision shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees and the expenses of
