Back letter

Subsidiary or supplemental agreement (contract) between two or more parties drawn up to document their obligations and/or rights that (for whatever reason) could not be included in the original or principal agreement. A letter of indemnity, for example, is a back letter because it backs up a specific claim of a contracting party against the other.
