renegotiates

Revises the terms

Renegotiates means to negotiate again, typically to revise terms of an existing agreement.

Someone renegotiates a contract when circumstances change or the original terms prove unfavorable: The union renegotiates wages every three years.

The word implies both parties returning to the table, though one side usually initiates: After the merger, she renegotiated her employment contract.
