Explanation:
◇ 拙訳:  NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for the reasonable and adequate consideration herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
原文に忠実な英訳にしたということを前提に、この前にある前文か本文中に該当する対価(本来ならば約因でしょうが・・・)が明記されていれば、この英語で大丈夫かと存じます。ただし、おそらく元原稿は日本人が作成したのと思われるため、英文契約書の様式にあわせて明記された英語に書き直してもいいかもしれません(その場合には、その旨を顧客に伝えることが肝要でしょうが)。

もう選択しちゃいましたか。
Saitoさんからコメントを貰った時はもうオフモード(お酒を飲んでいました)だったので詳しい返事は書けませんでしたので以下に述べます。

原文の日本語に違和感を持ちました。
理由は、「交換に」という文言には、一方の当事者がもう一方の当事者に役務なり商品なりを提供する、と続くのが通常だと思います。
私の感覚では、「正当かつ十分」も「適正かつ十分」が通常だと思いますが正当という言葉を使う必要があるのかもしれません。
以上から原文の日本語は、契約書の意図を正確かつ十分伝えていないのではないかという私の推測に基づいて訳文を提案しました。
