1、1. Now Therefore, in consideration of the premises, and the representations, warranties, covenants, and undertakings of the parties hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree among themselves as follows.鉴于上述事实和各方在下文所作的陈述、保证、立约和承诺，及其他有效的有价约因/有效对价，现各方达成协议如下

2、。 representation 陈述warranties 保证covenant 约定、契约undertaking 承诺good and valuable consideration 有效的对价约因 有效对价指足以支持当事人之间交易的对价对价(consideration)原本是英美合同法中的重要概念，其内涵是一方为换取另一方做某事的承诺而向另一方支付的金钱代价或得到该种承诺的承诺。 对价：指当事人一方在获得某种利益时，必须给付对方相应的代价。什么是约因对价一般又译为"约因",是缔约当事人之间,由于缔约行为,一方获得利益,一方遭受损失.例如,某甲同意按一定价钱出售货物给某乙,

3、约定乙得到货物后于一定期限付款,但到期后乙未付款,因而甲遭受损失,乙获得利益.在这里,乙支付一定数额的款项的约定,就是甲出售货物约定的"约因".约因是在"违约损害之诉"的基础上产生的.但是对价和约因又有不同，对价是有金钱价值的约因。约因（consideration），是指当事人签订合同所追求的直接目的，约因和对价的区别是卖家和买家的区别。2. 对价与约因之比较 作为合同法上相对应的两个概念，英美法的对价与法国法的约因具有某些相同的作用，即都是给予合同效力的确定以一个统一的标准，都能约束简单契约，使契约当事人的权利有所保障，并具有事先慎重考虑之表示。但是，

4、英美法与大陆法经历的发展道路毕竟有所不同，因而，对价与约因这对概念尽管相似，差异也是客观存在的。总的说来，对价的适用范围较狭窄，但内容较具体，约因的适用范围较宽，且具弹性。具体而言，对价与约因存在三点主要差异： 1、对价使合同当事人之间的权利对等性更为巩固，但过于强调对价之有无及技术化之后果，则多少妨碍一般交易活动的进行。由于其僵化的规定，英美法不得不于19世纪中叶发展“允诺禁反言”理论予以救济，以化解有违常理的早期判例。约因则无上述现象，比如类似英美法上过去对价及当事人间一部分债务之清偿作为全部债务之免除，在法国法上均为有效，且比较灵活。2、从作用方式看，对价从中世纪开始后，到17世纪才成为

5、一条决定合同效力的基本原则，到18世纪末19世纪初，对价的报偿性被放大，对价原理从获益受损公式演变为对价交换理论，从而使合同与等价交换关系紧密联系起来。进入20世纪中期后，随着自由竞争的市场经济向垄断经济的转变，对价在合同成立和效力中的决定性地位导致一系列不公平的结果，因而类似公平、正义等价值标准在合同效力上占有越来越重要的地位，对价原理遭到贬抑。约因理论在19世纪之前在合同上占据了积极地位，对合意是否必然产生合法契约起着阻却作用。在19世纪以后，合意成为决定契约是否合法有效的唯一标准，约因开始表面化，在合同效力上的地位转为消极。3、从发展趋势看，虽然对价在起源上可能与约因不无关系，但对价原理

6、后来的发展却偏离了约因的轨迹。作为基本上是一种自由竞争的商品经济的产物，对价原理在完成了它的历史使命后，便在英美合同法上渐渐退居次要地位了，有些法学家甚至要求废除对价原理。而约因理论在近代以后的法国合同法中却逐渐泛化，合意之有无对契约的效力起着最终的决定作用。对此，吉尔莫曾感叹：“如果他们（指科宾与卡多佐）的观点被采用即如果对价被定义为约因的同义语，那么，古典契约理论的衰落完全有可能被推迟一代左右的时间，并且很可能以完全不同的形式出现。”5 trade dress ：商业外观，依美国判例之释义，系指“产品之整体形象或总体外貌”。此种商业外观，可涵括“尺寸、外形、颜色或颜色之组合、构造、图形，乃

7、至特殊的销售技艺”。据此文意，商业外观概可视为一种设计（Design）。依欧美立法的思路，专利、商标乃至版权法，均可保护设计；然而，立法理当避免三类保护之相互交迭。自经济学的角度而言，此种立法厘清尤显重要，盖其关涉市场配置的有效性，及自由竞争的根本信条。mask work：1984年美国半导体晶片保护条例确立了一种新的知识产权类型，这就是“屏蔽作品”（mask work），它是半导体晶片制造中主要的设备。该产品的创造者有10年期的复制和销售专有权。该法的主要目的是遏制日益猖獗的非法复制半导体晶片的行为，从而在计算机和知识产权这些高科技领域鼓励人们进一步的研究和投资。6.
