Answer:
An allonage is an attachment to an instrument where the original instrument did not have sufficient space for what needs to be provided. See https://definitions.uslegal.com/a/allonge/If you attach provisions to an existing Promissory Note it may be considered an addendum or amendment. If the parties all sign the allonage or addendum and the terms are not consistent with the provisions of the original note the attachment should state that the terms of the allonage controls if that is the intent of the parties.
