Spanish term or phrase: suscripto (en este contexto)
La Compañía ha suscripto en carácter de fiador las obligaciones que "Tal Empresa" ha adquirido con "Tal otra Empresa" (el "Prestamista).

Como no se trata de obligaciones negociables sino de la obligación de pagar el préstamo como fiador, no se me ocurre a esta hora de la noche cómo ponerlo.
"Agreed to assume" me parece una versión muy libre.
ConsejeroZ: ¿qué me proponen?
Gracias por adelantado
