Austria agreed to evacuate Italy as far as the Mincio, surrender strongholds, and cede territory between the Chiesa, Oglio, and Po rivers.
The Austrians agreed to evacuate Italy as far as the Mincio and abandon all strongholds in Piedmont and Milan, losing all they had gained in 1798 and 1799. They agreed to give the French Tortona, Alessandria, Milan, Turin, Pizzighetone, Arona, and Piacenza by 20 June. The land between the Chiesa, the Oglio, and the Po was ceded to the French, and the land between the Chiesa and the Mincio was designated a neutral zone not to be occupied by either army. Austria retained Tuscany and the bulk of its army, with the French letting their soldiers retreat.
