-{{pe}}A coda of legal flatulence that goes without saying and is capable of almost infinite embellishment if you put your mind to it. Try, for example “as amended, ''supplemented'', ''updated'' [[and/or]] ''augmented'' [[from time to time]]”. Perhaps toss in “[[orally or in writing]]”.

-But the retort, should the pedant with whom you are negotiating seek to so dirty your prose, is this: “It ''goes without saying'' that it means as amended from time to time. After all, what kind of freak would want to refer to a [[contract]], [[regulation]], [[statutory instrument]] or other dated legal obligation as it exists at any time other than ''at the present moment''?”
