Is there even a contract to sign?

"He continued: "We’ve agreed to do it where we’ll talk about it privately, yearly, it’s not going to be I’m staying for three years, for 10 years, one year, or whatever.

“The trust I have with (majority shareholders) Delia and Michael is that if the day comes when they want me to leave the next second, then not a problem, and likewise if the time comes when I want to have some time out. "

(Quotes from when it was announced he'd be staying longer)

Seems a much more informal arrangement than that (which is fine & dandy until it isn't and then HR has a panic attack)
