renegotiation

Deal terms reopened

Renegotiation is the process of negotiating again—revisiting terms that were previously agreed upon to reach new ones.

Contracts, treaties, and deals undergo renegotiation when circumstances change or one party seeks better conditions: The union called for renegotiation of the salary provisions.

After the merger fell through, renegotiation of the original terms took months.
