I wouldn't. If I leaked data due to honest coding bug and someone gave me $75K with even a handshake agreement to put it towards fixing the problem I would put 100% of that money towards fixing the problem. That's my moral standard, if money with even a verbal agreement to put it towards a certain purpose, I either honor that purpose or don't take the money.

If they took away $75K I might be forced to lay off someone, possibly one who could have fixed the problem.
