Explanation:
Don't know which country you are dealing with, but here's an example from Argentina, which should be fairly equivalent to laws in other Spanish Language nations:

Argentina
... in Section 14 of the Argentine Constitution and regulated by Section 245 of the Labor Contract Law, by means of a type of severance pay known as "Indemnity for ...

employment contract law /Employment Contract Act


Explanation:
What they are saying in layperson terms is that the directors etc have not received any kind of payment other than the salaries they were contracted for. They are swearing not to have made payments (that might act as a precedent perhaps?) nor to have promised any payments, over and above those contracted. If the company is being sold, then the buyers probably want guarantees that the funds of the company are essentially intact.

...or extraordinary payments, in excess of those provided for in the (corresponding) employment contract law/Employment Contract Act, to any directors, maagers or employees whatsoever ...

Given that an exact equivalent may not exist, this is how I would translate it, sufficiently inclusive to avoid any possible interpretation problems. That's a common sense approach - I'm not a legal translator, so I'm not sure what the prescribed practice is in these cases.
