What's an Affidavit of Lost Promissory Note and Indemnity Agreement - EDIT?

 Whether you keep your promissory note in a safe or a shoe box, there's always a chance it could get lost or destroyed. Since a promissory note is proof a loan's been made, and an affidavit is a promise what you're signing is true, it makes sense that creating new documents would have to start with an affidavit of lost promissory note. Adding the indemnity agreement protects both parties should issues arise in the future.
