Thank you to everyone, I was waiting for an answer to my query - Can I add more than one term to the glossary? I liked seal, however I do feel entered into and sign are appropriate too.

neutral  lexical: This is what your reference actually says: "Verizon's recent contract award to Nortel to update Verizon's network to carry VoIP calls was celebrated by both companies' execs at party in Manhattan recently". Partying, not signing contracts.
