Under the terms of the agreement, the Czechoslovak Government agreed to pay to the United States within 10 days the equivalent of $172,961 in crowns as full settlement of the obligations arising out of the deliveries of an estimated $2,760,000 in lend-lease aid to the Czechoslovak Government under the July 1942 Agreement. Settlement negotiations had been conducted in Praha intermittently from early 1947.
