A small fragment from the end of a contract, mentioning a price, an amount due to one party yearly, and the settlement of accounts, closing with the standard validity clause. It dates to the 4th century AD.

In English machine translation

[… lines lost …] […] the price to be current (?) […] […] from you the affairs […] […] … […] the (?) due to you […] yearly, and the settlement of the accounts. The agreement is valid […]

The phrase "the agreement is valid" (kyria hē homologia) is the standard closing clause of Greek contracts in Egypt. The restoration "to be current" reads the price as one prevailing in the market.

It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
