bound (see below)
I would change this around:
Company shall not be bound to any obligation other than those expressly set out in the aforementioned documents (etc.)
In this case it's not about expenses but obligations.
Company shall not be bound to any obligation other than those expressly set out in the aforementioned documents (etc.)
In this case it's not about expenses but obligations.

: using "held against" in the context of a legal obligation may be lay language, but it would never be used in a legal contract
