Declare or State or Whereas
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.
