It was agreed that the Duchy of Aquitaine, effectively Gascony, should be taken back into the king's hands on the grounds that Edward III was in breach of his obligations as vassal and had sheltered the king's 'mortal enemy' Robert d'Artois.
Det blev besluttet at hertugdømmet Aquitaine, i praksis Gascogne, skulle tilbage på kongens hænder med den begrundelse, at Edvard 3. var i strid med sine forpligtelser som vasal og havde givet husly til kongens "dødsfjende" Robert d'Artois.
