(e) The filing officer may collect a fee for recording the statement of authority in the amount authorized for recording a transfer of real property.

Unless canceled earlier, a recorded statement of authority or its most recent amendment is canceled by operation of law five (5) years after the date of the most recent recording. (g) If the record title to the real property is in the name of a decentralized unincorporated nonprofit association and the statement of authority is recorded in the office of the county clerk in which a transfer of real property would be recorded, the authority of the person named in a statement of authority is conclusive in favor of a transferee who gives value without notice that the person named in the statement of authority lacks authority.
