Spanish term or phrase: Manifiestan
Heading in a commercial contract to introduce what the two parties are signing
keith
Declare or State or Whereas
Explanation:
Another term you'll see is "Exponen." This is the heading for what are called "recitals" (background info relating to purpose of contract). The word you use to translate the heading depends on what you've done with "reunidos"; if you maintain the overall structure of a single long sentence, use a verb.
