Within thirty (30) days after this Xxxxx enters into force, the Parties shall also commence negotiations on an agreement establishing voluntary limits on military manpower. 2. The Parties agree that the armaments agreement should be based at a minimum on the following criteria: population size, current military armament holdings, defense needs, and relative force levels in the region. a. The agreement shall establish numerical limits on holdings of tanks, artillery, armored combat vehicles, combat aircraft, and attack helicopters, as defined in the relevant sections of the CFE Treaty, with the additional understanding that artillery pieces will be defined as those of 75 mm calibre and above. b. In order to establish a baseline, the Parties agree to report within thirty (30) days after this Annex enters into force their holdings as defined in sub-paragraph (a) above, according to the format prescribed in the 1992 Vienna Document of the OSCE. c. This notification format shall be supplemented to take into account the special considerations of the region. 3. The Parties agree to complete within 180 days after this Xxxxx enters into force the negotiations above on agreed numerical limits on the categories referred to in paragraph 2(a) of this Article. If the Parties fail to agree to such limits within 180 days after this Annex enters into force, the following limits shall apply, according to a ratio of 5:2:2 based on the approximate ratio of populations of the Parties: the baseline shall be the determined holdings of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (hereinafter the "baseline"); the limits for the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia shall be seventy-five (75) percent of the baseline; the limits for the Republic of Croatia shall be thirty (30) percent of the baseline; the limits for Bosnia and Herzegovina shall be thirty (30) percent of the baseline; and the allocations for Bosnia and Herzegovina will be divided between the Entities on the basis of a ratio of two (2) for the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and one (1) for the Republika Srpska. 4.
