on condition

Only when agreed

On condition introduces a requirement that must be met for something to happen: She agreed to help on condition that her name not be published.

The phrase functions like "if" but emphasizes the stipulation as non-negotiable.

Often followed by "that" or "of": released on condition of good behavior.
