The quoted statement is a requirement because it describes something that must be done before the title insurer will issue the final policy. Recording a warranty deed from the vested owner into the proposed insured is a closing and recording requirement, not an exception. A standard exception limits or excludes coverage; it does not tell the parties what must be completed to create insurable title. A post-policy event occurs after policy issuance and is not what the commitment is addressing. The ALTA commitment structure treats Schedule B, Part I as “Requirements,” and includes properly authorized, executed, delivered, and recorded conveyance or mortgage documents as requirements. This matches the Pennsylvania exam outline’s focus on commitments and title policy structure.
