whereafter

After which point

Whereafter is a formal or archaic conjunction meaning "after which": The contract was signed, whereafter the parties celebrated.

It belongs to the family of compound relative adverbs—whereupon, whereby, wherein—that sound legalistic or old-fashioned in contemporary speech but persist in formal documents and historical texts.
