Three French agents, originally only publicly referred to as X, Y, and Z, but later revealed as Jean Conrad Hottinguer, Pierre Bellamy and Lucien Hauteval, demanded enormous concessions from the United States as a condition for continuing negotiations. The concessions demanded included 50,000 dollars, a $10 million loan, a $250,000 personal bribe to French foreign minister Talleyrand, and a formal apology by U.S. President John Adams."
