Clara, acredito que neste contexto seja:
"para o que" = para tal (intuito) deve X informar a Y
'... prices should only be altered by agreement between the parties so that X might inform Y in writing...'

Consequently (starting a new sentence)
'...os preços apenas poderão ser alterados por acordo entre as partes, PARA O QUE X informará Y, por escrito, com pelo menos sessenta dias de antecedência, sobre qualquer aumento que pretenda introduzir no tarifário...'
prices may only be changed by agreement between the parties. Consequently, X is required to inform Y, in writing, giving at least 60 days' notice ........
More literal:
prices may only be changed by agreement between the parties. for which purpose, X is required to inform Y, in writing, giving at least 60 days' notice
The more literal sentence is unwieldy, and we don't know what comes before 'prices'...English doesn't tolerate very lengthy sentences.
