- Accepted the British as the supreme power.
- They surrendered their foreign relations to the East India Company and agreed that they would not enter into any alliance with any other power and would not wage wars.
- They accepted a British resident at their headquarters and agreed not to employ any Europeans in their service without consulting the company.
- Agreed to maintain British troops at their own cost.
- Virtually lost their independence.
