(1) The lease provided to the tenant by the owner pursuant to subdivision (b) of this section shall be on the same terms and conditions as the expired lease, except where the owner can demonstrate that the change is necessary in order to comply with a specific requirement of law or regulation applicable to the building or to leases for housing accommodations subject to the RSL, or with the approval of the DHCR. Nothing herein may limit the inclusion of authorized clauses otherwise permitted by this code or by order of the DHCR not contained in the expiring lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tenant shall have the right to have his or her spouse added to the lease or any renewal thereof as an additional tenant where said spouse resides in the housing accommodation as his or her primary residence.

(2) Where an owner has filed an owner's petition for decontrol (OPD) with the DHCR, as provided for in section 2531.3 of this Title, and the period during which the owner must offer a renewal lease pursuant to section 2523.5(a) of this Title has not expired, and the proceeding for decontrol is pending, the owner shall be permitted to attach a rider to the offered renewal lease, on a form prescribed or a facsimile of such form approved by the DHCR, containing a clause notifying the tenant that the offered renewal lease, if accepted, shall nevertheless no longer be in effect after 60 days from the issuance by the DHCR of an order of decontrol, or, in the event that a petition for administrative review (PAR) is filed against such order of decontrol, after 60 days from the issuance by the DHCR of an order dismissing or denying the PAR.
