§ 1302.12.
(A) An agreement modifying a contract within sections 1302.01 to 1302.98, inclusive, of the Revised Code , needs no consideration to be binding. (B) A signed agreement which excludes modification or rescission except by a signed writing
cannot be otherwise modified or rescinded, but except as between merchants such a
requirement on a form supplied by the merchant must be separately signed by the other
party. (C) The requirements of section 1302.04 of the Revised Code , must be satisfied if the contract as modified is within its provisions. (D) Although an attempt at modification or rescission does not satisfy the requirements
of division (B) or (C) of this section, it can operate as a waiver. (E) A party who has made a waiver affecting an executory portion of the contract may
retract the waiver by reasonable notification received by the other party that strict
performance will be required of any term waived, unless the retraction would be unjust
in view of a material change of position in reliance on the waiver.
