A Contract Addendum is a supplemental document that is not included in the original contract. Generally, it is completed, signed, and executed after the original contract to add certain terms and conditions, obligations, or details. You may choose to adjust a date, change a specific condition that is not working for either party, or agree on a deadline extension.
Despite changing certain clauses and definitions in the original agreement, an Addendum leaves other provisions in full force. If you require a Contract Addendum template, you may download it below or draft a more personalized document using our online form builder.
Follow these steps to create an Addendum to a Contract:
Addendums often add parties to the agreement because the identities of those parties cannot be determined at the time the original contract is signed. Joinders are widely used to expand and clarify partnership agreements, stockholders' agreements, tenancy agreements, etc. The original contract must include a clause stating that new parties to the agreement must be explicitly named in the addendum. When composing an Addendum, write something like "Michael Jones hereby accepts all legal obligations under the Original Contract" and "All parties hereby agree to the additional terms and conditions of the original contract."
