This document is Annexure II to a Comprehensive Agreement, detailing the modalities for implementing a ceasefire between the Burundian government and the Palipehutu-FNL. It establishes the Joint Verification and Monitoring Mechanism (JVMM) to oversee the disengagement of forces, the movement of combatants to assembly areas, and the phased process of demobilization, reinsertion, and reintegration.

• The Joint Verification and Monitoring Mechanism (JVMM) is composed of representatives from the Burundian government, the Palipehutu-FNL, the African Union (AU), and the United Nations. The JVMM is responsible for demarcating assembly areas, disengagement areas, and transit routes, as well as supervising the movement, registration, and verification of combatants in assembly areas.
• The JVMM is tasked with supervising the disengagement of forces, which includes ending tactical deployments and operations between parties, stopping government flights that could be seen as aerial reconnaissance against the Palipehutu-FNL, and managing police law enforcement and public security operations in disengagement areas.
• The implementation of the agreement is divided into three phases: Phase 1 covers demarcation, reporting to assembly areas, the release of prisoners, and initial disarmament and registration; Phase 2 involves movement to the Demobilisation Centre (DC), verification, and reinsertion/reintegration via the Executive Secretariat of the National Commission for Demobilisation, Reinsertion and Reintegration (ES, CNDRR); Phase 3 involves transporting selected members to training areas for integration into Defence and Security Forces.
• The agreement sets a specific timeline starting from the signing of the Ceasefire Agreement (D Day). The ceasefire enters into force at D+3, the JVMM and JLTs are established at D+7, and the movement to assembly areas occurs between D+7 and D+14. The full DRR process is intended to be completed before D+30.
• Members of the Palipehutu-FNL are granted provisional immunity for acts committed during the armed struggle from the start of the ceasefire's effective implementation until the signing of the Ceasefire Agreement.
