An addendum is an addition to a finished document, such as a contract. The most common addendum is an attachment or exhibit at the end of such a document. For example, a contract to manufacture widgets may have an addendum listing the specifications for said widgets.

How to write an addendum to a contract in 7 easy steps Consider and mirror the language of the original contract. Choose an addendum title. Make clear the parties involved. Clarify the part of the original contract the addendum refers to. Ensure compliance with the original contract and all other relevant regulations.

A contract addendum cannot be legally enforced unless both parties fully understand the new terms and agree to them in writing. All parties who signed the original contract must also sign the addendum; if one or more parties are unavailable, they can appoint agents who have the authority to sign on their behalf.

If an addendum contains material changes, it may void the original contract entirely. This could leave both parties without any contractual protections and could result in costly litigation. Therefore, it is important that parties only use addenda to make small, non-material changes to their contracts.
