German term or phrase: strafbewehrt
I've translated Unterlassungserklärung as declaration of forbearance, but can't find strafbewehrt anywhere. UDRP is the uniform domain name dispute resolution policy. Help appreciated.

"...fordern wir Sie auf die Domain auf die XXX group zu übertragen und eine strafbewehrte Unterlassungserklärung bzgl. weiterer Verletzungshandlungen gegen die UDRP abzugeben.

declaration of discontinuance with a penalty clause
Explanation:
This is the translation Romain offers for strafbewehrte Unterlassungserklärung; the background of strafbewehrt is that you commit an offence if you violate your own declaration of discontinuance (or declaration to cease and desist - this might be the term used in AE).

I have to correct myself - the violation of your own declaration of discontinuance would not be an offence (which is exclusively a criminal concept), but would be subject to a penalty - this is what strafbewehrt means in this context.

Thank you very much Darien, for your assistance and the extensive legal background and links. I have Romain too, but only thought to look under strafbewehrt instead of Unterlassungserklärung. And Norbert, please accept my apologies for squashing my previous question before you had a chance to be heard. Shortly after posting the question I found the answer myself by reading the rest of the document - I've got to get more sleep.
