THEREFORE (the parties have agreed that)
If your "il est convenu" is preceded by "Alors que" or "considerant" and a few paragraphs, then "il est convenu" appears followed by a few paragraphs, you are looking at the equivalent of the English contract construction: "WHEREAS" ...(...) "THEREFORE" ... or you can put "THEREFORE, the parties have agreed that..." (...)
