Acc. to Black\'s Law and Duhaime\'s (www.duhaime.org/dictionary) :
Acceptance - One of 3 requisites to a valid contract under common law (the other 2 being an offer and consideration). A contract is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties which starts with an offer from one person but which does not become a contract until the other party signifies an unequivocal willingness to accept the terms of that offer. The moment of acceptance is the moment from which a contract is said to exist, and not before.

Power of attorney is very doubtful. There may be a lot of hits for it but is it relevant here?

The thing is that contracting parties aren\'t required to write \"lu et approuvé\" or \"bon pour pouvoir\" under Anglo-saxon law, so it\'s heard to find an exact equivalent. I think the parties are supposed to write the formula in French, so I\'d leave it in French with an explanation in brackets (unless you\'re translating a form that is supposed to be legally binding).
