Italian term or phrase: resta tuttavia inteso
the payments section of a model application contract. I would like to know if there's a nicer solution than "it is however understood that". The actual sentence is: Resta tuttavia inteso che in nessun caso eventuali condizioni diverse pattuite tra XXX e XXX potranno essere peggiorative per XXX.

I selected this because of the reference to "it is understood and agreed" which worked well in my context with the "nonetheless" suggested by Paola - so all in all, I used "Nontheless, it is understood and agreed that ..". With "notwithstanding" I had the feeling that you need something to qualify it, eg. notwithstanding blah blah blah, it is understood ....which wasn't the case in my example.
Thanks to everyone, they were all equally valid answers. I can't believe how quick you are!!

The Parties agree


Explanation:
since both parties are named in the sentence and presumably are both signing, I suspect that the English might prefer the active, explicit form to the impersonal one.

sorry, Denise,


Explanation:
I am at a different computer that seems to have a life of its own...
I wanted to add nonetheless, somewhere, and wanted to add that "resta inteso" seems one of many ways to say "we agree that..."

buon lavoro
