Like any other agreement, a compromise is based on the contractual rules of offer and acceptance, with each party conceding something, either by diminishing their alleged claim or by conceding or increasing their liability.

By signing the release, you agree to waive your right to pursue any further legal action in connection with the injury and accident specified in the settlement. Once you execute a release, you also cannot file any claims for injuries stemming from the incident that might not arise until later.

To compensate is to offset (or conceal) a psychological or physical difficulty by developing in another direction. To compromise is to allow your environment impose upon you and for you to come up with the best plan of action within those boundaries by making concessions.
