Not one of the potential investors is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were not to be concluded.

一个潜在的投资者，直到一个合并协议签订，合并协议中包括如果交易没有得以完成就处罚的规定，才会作出要约收购第一州际银行，
not until中的not提到句首，引起倒装
if the deal were not to be concluded是虚拟语气

就是说：“that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were not to be concluded.”在这里是agreement的定语么？那可以放在 is signed后面啊？我一直以为定语从句只能放在修饰的对象后面。。。求解答！谢谢

有时候会有这种“倒装”存在，尤其是当修饰成分超长，影响句子结构的时候。
杨鹏难句里面有类似的例子，阅读里面也有。
