Leonard actually had a way to take penny without breaking the roommate agreement. Sheldon added a section that allows Leonard to suspend their friendship. Because the wording here is “friend” and not “roommate”, Leonard could have signed that clause and taken penny without any violation of the agreement. He could honestly use that clause to stop Sheldon from doing pretty much anything with the agreement.

Leonard is a bad friend a lot of the times he doesn’t honor a lot of things with his friends and has betrayed them multiple times. 1) pinkie swear with Howard not to go after Priya. 2) this example in particular where he violates the roommate agreement. It doesn’t seem like he can honor any promises or agreements he commits to. Why do a pinkie swear and why did he sign an actual contract if you aren’t going to mean it. It basically shows his character as spineless and deceiving just to get what he wants. At least Sheldon is upfront and honest and honors his commitments.

I'm sure Leonard didn't know about it since it surprised him that it existed after the emergency preparedness drill. And, as Amy confessed later in the series, Sheldon simply changes the agreement as he chooses and doesn't tell Leonard. He eventually put it on a tablet so he wouldn't have to reprint new pages, and could alter it without Leonard's agreement. He is so deceitful and selfish.

The Roommate Agreement is only to accommodate Sheldon, that has been firmly established in past episodes when he broke his own rules in a bid to get his own way.
