Noun + を条件に
Explanation
を条件に is used to state that something will happen only if a specific condition is met.
It expresses a clear, concrete condition, often one that is formally decided, agreed upon, or required. This grammar is commonly used in contracts, rules, negotiations, announcements, and official decisions.
Unlike casual conditionals such as ～ば / ～なら, を条件に sounds objective, logical, and formal, and is often used when the condition is non-negotiable or explicit.
