English translation: Include

English language (monolingual) [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s)
English term or phrase: Incorporate U.S. Public Law
What does "incorporate" mean in the formulations like the one below

As applicable, this agreement shall be: Incorporate U.S. Public Law 106-229, ‘‘Electronic Signatures in Global & National Commerce Act’’ or such other applicable law conforming to the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Signatures (2001).

There are several such phrases one can google.
As applicable, this agreement shall: Incorporate U.S. Public Law 106-229, “Electronic Signatures in Global & National Commerce Act” or such other applicable.
As applicable, this agreement shall be:1-Incorporate U.S. Public Law 106-229, ''Electronic Signatures in global and National .Commerce Act'' or such other .

The construction would indicate that incorporate is an adjective meaning incorporated. If rewritten using the verb "incorporate", the meaning changes somewhat.

Does anyone know what was the intent of the authors of the law or of this legal clause? Thanks.

BTW. The answers found in other language pairs are not adequately supported, IMHO.
