renewals
Contracts signed again
Renewals are instances of renewing—extending something that would otherwise expire.
Insurance policies, magazine subscriptions, library books, and lease agreements all require periodic renewal: Membership renewals are due in January.
The plural often appears in administrative contexts where multiple accounts or contracts must be processed: The department handles license renewals.
