@ Cristina For the purposes of discussion and feedback, that seems possible too, depending on context. ;-)
Cristina Talavera Mar 4, 2011:
CC, for the purposes of discussion & feedback: gen. (dep on context of course) I translate executoire = enforceable / obligatoire = binding..
cc in nyc Mar 4, 2011:
Parse it... remplacement exécutoire = legally binding replacement
disposition = provision
Put them together and it comes out as: "legally-binding replacement [provision]."

EDIT: I posted this *before* seeing Cristina's Discussion entry.
Cristina Talavera Mar 4, 2011:
In case of conflict, the PARTIES are bound to agree in good faith to convene on an enforceable alternative provision replicating as faithfully as possible the initial intent of the PARTIES... literal, but hope it helps
Laura Molinari (asker) Mar 4, 2011:
I'm sorry, I don't know any more. All the context I have is what I posted here. It's a very short clause in the larger document.
AllegroTrans Mar 3, 2011:
Context Asker, this speaks of a replacement/alternative. Do you know whether this means alternative person, equipment, legal agreement.....or something else? I think it could well be important to to know. Thanks!

legally binding replacement

That's the idea, but perhaps not the best phrase. Maybe someone can provide something better. ;-)
