| Two (or more) people (the Parties, also encodable as Party_1 and Party_2) have an agreement. Both sides are construed as having a commitment to an Obligation--the relationship is understood to be symmetrical or reciprocal. Instead of a specific mention of the Obligation, a Topic expression may be used to indicate the domain covered. |

| Party_1 [par1] Semantic Type Sentient | The individual or individuals that form the more prominent (i.e. agentive) party of the agreement, as compared with Party_2. That is, Party_1 is generally encoded as the External Argument of verbs, and peripheral FEs that do not make reference to the event itself generally make reference to Party_1. Thus Manner is construed to be that of Party_1, not necessarily that of Party_2 or the group of Parties as a whole. | |

| Party_2 [par2] Semantic Type Sentient | The semantically (and grammatically) less prominent participant (or group of participants) in the agreement. It is generally encoded within a prepositional phrase (e.g. headed by with). | |

| Medium [med] | As with other frames in the Communication domain, the Medium of communication may be expressed. Medium is the physical entity or channel used to record or negotiate the Obligation. | |
