Spanish term (edited):
Legitimación para obligar en los términos del presente acuerdo
power to assume the obligations hereunder
Rebeca is correct of course, but given the text you've quoted here, I'd go for a slightly different wording.
"A company with full legal capacity to act and with the power to assume the obligations hereunder"
"A company with full legal capacity to act and with the power to assume the obligations hereunder"
