As you have accepted my limited ability to guarantee Johann's behavior, I could hardly ask more of you, Herr Mandrake.
I am, especially given the unfortunate nature of Johann's behavior in the past and your own willingness to accept restitution, more than willing to accept such payment from you. The only request I would make in such an exchange would be the acceptance that should Herr Hilbert make a second attempt, I am at liberty to seek restitution from him without damage to our own relationship.

Is that agreeable to you?
