Alice and Bob have a contract.



One day they mutually agree to modify it.



Does the modification need to have all the elements of a new contract? In particular, does it need to have a consideration on both sides?



Typical scenario is employee's annual pay rise. The employer raises the pay, the employee agrees. But what is his/her new consideration for the employer? Does the absence of one render the pay rise unenforceable?



(This question has been inspired by this one).

  • The consideration on the employee's side would be the continued good work for the company. I don't see how it would be implied that there were no consideration on both sides in that case...
