[Sidenote: Germany to renounce rights.]

powers, and undertakes to accept whatever measures are taken by the five
allied powers in relation thereto.
COLONIES AND OVERSEAS POSSESSIONS
[Sidenote: Property of German Empire to be transferred to new
governments.]
Germany renounces in favor of the allied and associated powers her
overseas possessions with all rights and titles therein. All movable and
immovable property belonging to the German Empire, or to any German
State, shall pass to the Government exercising authority therein. These
Governments may make whatever provisions seem suitable for the
repatriation of German nationals and as to the conditions on which
German subjects of European origin shall reside, hold property, or carry
on business. Germany undertakes to pay reparation for damage suffered by
French nationals in the Cameroons or its frontier zone through the acts
of German civil and military authorities and of individual Germans from
the 1st of January, 1900, to the 1st of August, 1914. Germany renounces
all rights under the convention of the 4th of November, 1911, and the
29th of September, 1912, and undertakes to pay to France in accordance
with an estimate presented and approved by the Repatriation Commission
all deposits, credits, advances, &c.
