　　1.前言 Preamble

　　一份标准英文合同通常可以分为前言（Preamble）、正文（Operative part）、附录（Schedule）及证明部分即结束词（Attestation）四大部分组成。

　　前言（Preamble）由“Parties”及“Recitals”两部分组成。

　　“Parties”为必备条款，在很多时候称为“commencement”即合同的开场白，主要介绍合同各方的名称或姓名、注册地及地址、邮编及在合同中的简称。当然，并不是所有的合同都要详细介绍以上诸要素，在许多简单合同中，只是提一下各方的名称。

　　I. 以下为“Parties”的常用表达方式：

　　1. This Agreement is entered into by and between ____ and ____.

　　本协议由以下双方____和___ 签署。

　　2. This Agreement is entered into by and between ____ (hereinafter referred to as____) and ____ (hereinafter referred to as "_____"), whereby it is agreed as follows:

　　本协议由以下双方____（以下简称____）和_____（以下简称___）签署，达成如下协议：

　　注：在很多合同中，这部分加入签约事由，如：

　　This Agreement is entered into through friendly negotiations between _____ Co.

　　(hereinafter referred to as the “Party A”) and _____ Co. (hereinafter referred to as the “Party B”) based on equality and mutual benefit to develop business on the terms and conditions set forth below:

　　本协议由_____（以下称为甲方）和____（以下称为乙方）为发展业务在平等互利的基础上签订，其条款如下：

　　This Agreement is entered into between _____ (hereinafter referred to as "Company"), and ______, (hereinafter referred to as "Employee") pursuant to paragraph VIII(2) of the Employee Handbook, whereby it is agreed as follows:

　　本“协议”由_____（以下简称“公司”）与_____（以下简称“雇员”）根据“雇员手册”第VIII(2)款签署，“协议”内容如下：

　　II. 以下为标准的“Parties”条款：

　　3. This Agreement is made and entered into this _____th day of _____ in the year of ____ by and between ______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of ______, with its principal place of business at _____ (hereinafter referred to as “_____”), and ______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of _____, with its principal place of business at _____ (hereinafter referred to as “_____”), whereby it is agreed as follows:

　　III. “Recitals” 由数个以"Whereas"字样开头的句子所组合而成（这些句子俗称为“Whereas Clauses”），表示当事人乃是在基于对这些事实（例如订约的目的、背景来由等）的共同认识，订立此合约。

　　4. This Agreement is made and entered into this _____ day of _____ in the year of ____ by and between _______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of ______, with its principal place of business at ______ (hereinafter referred to as “_____”), and ______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of ______, with its principal place of business at ______ (hereinafter referred

　　鉴于

　　因此，双方当事人达成以下协议：

　　注：WITNESSED可以用WITHNESSTH、WITHNESSTH THAT等来代替。

　　IV. 在很多美国常用合同中，在很多情况下直接用RECITALS引导数个陈述语句或“Whereas Clauses”。下面为一个资产购买协议实例：

　　This ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of May 19, 1997 by and among AAA, a Delaware corporation ("AAA"), BBB, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of AAA ("Buyer"), CCC ("Summit"), and DDD, an Oregon corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit ("Seller").

　　RECITALS

　　A. The Boards of Directors of each of Summit, Seller, AAA and Buyer believe it is in the best interests of each company and their respective security holders that Buyer acquire certain listed assets and assume certain listed liabilities of Seller (the "Acquisition").

　　B. On the date hereof, Buyer has executed a $2,000,000 irrevocable purchase order to purchase 400 time-based licenses for Summit's Visual HDL interfaces for Visual Test bench ("VTB") software on AAA's standard form of purchase order, which is payable within five (5) business days after the date hereof.

　　NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, promises and representations set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

　　2. 定义 Definition

　　在正文（Habendum）部分，通常第一章为定义（Definitions）部分。

　　定义条款即对合同中涉及的术语及名词作出限定、解释的条款。它可以散见于合同各个部分，但对于一些大型的、重要的合同，通常将其置于第一章。

　　I. 常见的定义语句常用mean, refer to, be construed as, include等来表达。如：

　　1. "Territory" means the United States of America.“销售地区”是指美利坚合众国。

　　引用法律规定理解为引用其本身外，还包括其修订、修正或重新实施案。

　　6. "Expenses" include costs, charges and expenses of every description.

　　“费用”包括各种形式的金钱支出。

　　II. 还有一类特殊的定义语句，即对于「单、复数」及「阴、阳性」名词的范围定义。通常都是用include来表达：

　　1. "Stock Certificate" includes "stock certificate" and "stock certificates".

　　合同中的“股票”，包括单数与复数。

　　2. "He" includes "he" and "she".

　　合同中的“他”，包括“他”与“她”。

　　3. Words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number.

　　采用单数或复数的单词也包括复数或单数。

　　III. 定义语句中，有时需限定范围。而通常用得最多的是：“for the purpose of ”及“in relation to” 某概念的定义条款，如果适用范围仅限于合同的“特定部份”，可以用“for the purpose of ”来为定义条款起头。而如果定义条款是针对合同的“特定概念”，就用“in relation to”来界定。如下例：

　　1. For the purpose of this Agreement, "Products" means all types of the machineries manufactured by Manufacturer as are specified in Attachment A hereto.

　　本协议所称的“产品”，指制造人所制造如附件A表列之各式机器。

　　2. "Address" means－

　　(a) 就自然人而言in relation to an individual, his usual residential or business address; and

　　(b) in relation to a corporation, its registered or principal office in the Republic of China.

　　“地址”就自然人而言，指通常之居所或工作场所；就公司而言，指位于中华人民共和国之注册所在地或主营业所。

　　IV. 在定义条款中，在定义语句前有时会加上一些陈述语句来引导，如：

　　1. For the purpose of this Agreement, each of the following terms shall have the following meaning respectively:

　　就本合同的目的而言，下列各用语，分别具有下述意义：

　　2. In this Agreement, the following words or expressions shall have the meanings given to them respectively below:

　　本协议内所用词句的意义，明确阐述如下：

　　3. In this agreement unless the context otherwise requires, the following words and expressions shall have the meanings assigned to them hereunder:

　　除非本“协议”有明确规定，下列词语应当具有如下规定之意义：

　　4. The following are the definitions of various terms used in this Agreement:

　　本“协议”使用之术语定义如下：

　　3. 有效期 Period of validity

　　有效期(Term)条款通常规定合同的有效期限，何时生效及到何时结束，合同结束后必要时如何延展等等。

　　I. 以下为“Term”的常用表达方式：

　　The term of this contract is for a _____ year period.合同的有效期为_____年。

　　如：The term of this contract is for a one (1) year period.

　　2. The contract is for a _____ month period, commencing _____.

　　3. This agreement remains valid for _____ year(s), i.e. commencing on ______, _____and terminating on ______, _____.

　　合同的有效期为_______。

　　3. This agreement shall commence on the commencement date and shall endure for a continuous period of _____ years. Thereafter it will be automatically renewed for successive periods of _____ years on the same terms and conditions unless one of the parties had given _____days notice of termination.

　　本协议应自生效日生效并在_____年内有效。此后，除非一方当事人提前_____天书面通知对方当事人终止本协议，本协议有效期自动延长_____年，协议条款不变。

　　III. Term条款并没有十分固定的表达方式，以下即是一些合同中Term的实例：

　　1. This Agreement shall be valid and remain in force for a period of three (3) years commencing from the date appearing first above written upon the signing of both Party A and Party B and shall be extended for another period of three (3) years on the same terms and conditions unless either of the parties hereto gives the other party at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the original term.

　　本合约须从上面首次写明的甲方和乙方签订本约的日期起生效并保持效力三年，并将按同样条件延长三年，否则与约任何一方至少须在原定时间期满前三十天给予另一方提前终止本合约的书面通知。

　　2. At any time and from time to time during the period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on ______, 20___, party A may in writing advise party B.

　　4. 不可抗力 Force Majeure

　　Force Majeure条款是一种免责条款，即免除由于不可抗力事件而违约的一方的违约责任。一般应规定的内容包括：不可抗力事件的定义（Definition of Force Majeure）以及不可抗力事件的后果（Consequences of Force Majeure）。在Force Majeure条款中，两者属于因果关系，难以截然分开。

　　I. 对于Force Majeure的定义，《合同法》定义如下：

　　本法所称不可抗力，是指不能预见、不能避免并不能克服的客观情况。

　　For purposes of this Law, force majeure means any objective circumstance, which is unforeseeable, unavoidable and insurmountable.

　　II. 以下是Force Majeure条款的举例：

　　1. Neither party shall be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts or facts reasonably beyond the control of that party.

　　任何一方不应对因其无法控制之行为或事实造成协议延迟履行或不履行承担任何责任。

　　2. Either Party shall not be liable for any delay caused by any unpredictable factor or any factor which is unavoidable or insurmountable by reasonable means at the time of conclusion of this Agreement, or any loss caused by failure in fulfillment of obligations as stipulated herein.

　　协议任一方无须对因任何在本协议签订时无法预见或以合理手段也无法避免或克服之原因造成的迟延或不履行本协议之义务所造成的损失承担责任。

　　注：以上采用的是类似《合同法》概括的定义方法。而合同为不可抗力定义时更多地采用列举的方法。

　　3. Neither party of this Agreement, directly or indirectly owing to any causes or circumstances beyond its control, including Acts of God, Governmental orders or restriction, war, warlike conditions, revolutions, strike, lockout, fire and flood.

　　本合同任何一方当事人对直接或间接地由于其无法控制的原因或情况包括自然灾害、政府命令或限制、战争、战争状态、革命、罢工、工厂被关闭、火灾、水灾等而未能履行或延迟履行合同或合同一部分的行为，不负任何责任。

　　注: Acts of God通常也译为“不可抗力”，但主要是指自然灾害；而Force Majeure则包括自然及人为两方面。

　　4. Neither party will be liable for nondelivery, misdelivery or late delivery (other than the payment of money due hereunder) caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, among others, war, civil strife or commotion, riots, strikes, fires, floods, acts of God, inability to obtain materials, failure of carriers or compliance with any law, regulation or governmental order.

　　任何当事人将不会为任何因为不可控制的情况产生的未交付货物、交付错误或延迟交货（除了支付应付款）。不可控制的情况包括战争、国内斗争或*乱、骚乱、罢工、火灾、洪灾、自然灾害、无力获得材料、承运人的失误、遵守法律、法规或政府令。

　　5. Should either of the parties to the contract by prevented from executing the contract by force majeure, such as earthquake, typhoon, flood, fire and war and other unforeseen events, and their happening and consequences are unpreventable and unavoidable, the prevented party shall notify the other party by cable without any delay, and within 15 days thereafter provide the detailed information of the events and a valid document for evidence issued by the relevant public notary organization

　　for explaining the reason of its inability to execute or delay the execution of all or part of the contract. Both parties shall, through consolations, decide whether to terminate the contract or to exempt the part of obligations for implementation of the contract or whether to delay the execution of the contract according to the effects of the events on the performance of the contract.

　　由于地震、台风、水灾、火灾、战争以及其它不能预见并且对其发生和后果不能防止或避免的不可抗力事件出现，致使直接影响合同的履行或者不能按约定的条件履行时，遇有上述不可抗力的一方，应立即电报通知对方，并应在十五天内，提供不可抗力详情及合同不能履行、或者部分不履行、或者需要延期履行的理由的有效证明文件。此项证明文件应由事故发生地有权证明的机构出具。按其对履行合同影响的程度，由双方协商决定是否解除合同，或者部分履行合同，或者延期履行合同。

　　6. Force majeure shall hereof consist of the following events:

　　下述事件构成不可抗力：

　　Where such cases as war, earthquake, serious windstorms, snow, or fire or other events which no party can foresee and prevent from happening occur;

　　发生战争、地震、严重的风灾、雪灾、火灾或其他各方无法预见、无法抗拒的事故。

　　自本协议签订之日起与本协议任何一方履行本协议相关的法律、法规发生变更致使本协议非法或转让行为无法完成。

　　In event of the occurrence of the above-mentioned events, if any party (hereinafter referred to as the “Effected Party ”) has been delayed or deterred from performing the duties of this Agreement in the course of its execution, the Affected Party shall be free from any liabilities for breach of the agreement and for compensation.

　　在发生本协议不可抗力事件之后，任何一方（以下简称受影响方）在履行本协议义务时受到拖延或不能履行时，受影响方不承担任何违约责任及赔偿责任。

　　In event of the force majeure, the affected party shall, within _____days from the date of the occurrence, notify the other party of the impact of such events on the execution of the duties in this Agreement, by telex, telegraph or in any other lawful written form, and simultaneously submit the relevant official credentials concerning the force majeure herein.

　　在发生不可抗力事件时，受影响方应自不可抗力事件发生之日起_____天内以电传或电报或其他任何合理书面方式，通知另一方有关不可抗力的发生和不可抗力对其履行本协议的义务的影响，同时应呈交不可抗力的有关官方证明。

　　7. Force Majeure不可抗力

　　(1) No party to this Contract shall be liable to the other party for any failure of or delay in performance of its obligations hereof nor be deemed to be in breach of this Contract, if such failure or delay has arisen from "force majeure."

　　如果任何一方因不可抗力而款能履行或推迟履行其义务，则不对另一方负责，也不应视作违反合同。

　　5. 修改 Modification

　　合同修订 (Modification)条款为合同常用条款.主要规定了合同修订的方式与途径。例如：书面合同，只能以书面方式进行修订，口头修订内容无效。

　　I. Modification条款通常较为简单，以下为一些常用比较简约的表达方式：

　　1. The contract can be amended only after the amendment is agreed upon by both parties.

　　6. 补偿 Indemnification

　　损害赔偿（indemnification）条款，是减少合同风险的一个重要条款。该条款主要约定在第三者对合同提出权利主张时，另一缔约方应当对此承担责任。通常情况下，另一缔约方必须支付全部的防御性诉讼费用，以及全部的支付给第三者的和解费用或者第三者胜诉后造成的所有损失。

　　实际上，本条款是将第三人造成的风险从合同的一方当事人转移给另一方当事人。

　　其次，本条款也可以约定合同的另一缔约方有其他不当的作为时，应当进行损害赔偿。

　　I． Indemnification 条款常用“indemnify and hold harmless from……”来表达：

　　如果补偿方收到索赔通知后为受补偿方辩护，则受补偿方应有权对该索赔进行抗辩、妥协或和解，费用由补偿方承担。在承担对该等索赔请求的辩护后，补偿方可进行和解、妥协或抗辩，由其酌处。无论本条有何相反的规定，如果发生对买方的诉讼、索赔、诉讼行为或程序是基于以下主张，即卖方制造并销售给买方的物品侵犯了任何第三方的_______国专利、版权、掩模、商标、商业秘密或其他任何知识产权，则卖方将就该诉讼、索赔、诉讼行为或程序为买方辩护，并将支付局判决(不能再上诉的)判定由买方承担的损害赔偿与费用，以及买方实际的支出与费用，上述规定的条件是：

Seller shall not be obligated to defend or be liable for costs and damages if the infringement arises out if a combination with, an addition to, or modification of the goods after delivery by Seller, or from use of the goods, or any part thereof, in the practice of a process.

　　If any goods manufactured and supplied by Seller to Buyer are held to infringe any valid patent and Buyer is enjoined from using the same, or if seller believes such infringement is likely, Seller will exert all reasonable efforts at its option and expense (i) to procure for Buyer the right to use such goods free of any liability for such infringement, or (ii) replace or modify such goods with a noninfringing substitute otherwise complying substantially with all the requirements of this contract, or (iii) upon return of the goods, refund the purchase price and the transportation costs of such goods (less reasonable allowance for their use and benefit derived therefrom for the period of time from delivery to Buyer, such allowance being based on a straight-line depreciation period of _______ years from the date of shipment by Seller).

　　如果卖方制造并向买方提供的任何物品被判定侵犯有效的_______国专利，且卖方被禁止使用该专利，或者如果卖方相信很可能发生侵权，卖方将尽一切合理的努力，自费从以下措施中作出选择：(1)为买方取得使用该等物品而不产生侵权责任的权利，或(2)以在其他方面实质符合本合同所有规定的非侵权替代品来代替或改造该等物品，或(3)在该等物品被返还后，退还该等物品的购买价以及运费(扣除向买方交货至退还期间使用该等物品并从中获得利益的折扣金额，该折扣金额按从卖方装运之日起_______年直线式折旧来计算)。

　　If the infringement is alleged prior to completion of delivery of the goods, Seller has the right to decline to make further shipments without being in breach of contract. If Seller has not been enjoined from selling such goods to Buyer, Seller may (at Seller's sole election), at Buyer's request, supply such goods to Buyer, in which event Buyer shall be deemed to extend to Seller the same patent indemnity hereinabove stated. The same patent indemnity shall be deemed to be extended to Seller by buyer if any suit or proceeding is brought against Seller based on a claim that the goods manufactured by Seller in compliance with Buyer's specifications infringe any valid patent. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of any infringement by a third party of intellectual property rights licensed to Buyer under this contract.

　　买方应将第三方侵犯本合同项下许可给买方的知识产权及时通知卖方。如果第三方侵犯该等知识产权，双方应互相合作，采取适当的行动制止该侵权行为。

　　上文规定了本合同双方就专利、版权、掩模、商业秘密、商标以及其他专有权利的侵权(无论是直接的还是协从的)所承担的唯一责任，并且取代就其所做出的所有保证(明示的、暗示的或法定的)，包括(但不限于)＿＿＿＿＿中规定的不侵权保证。
