This is a great move by Krivsky.
I don't think so, it depends how much the option and buyout are for the 5th year. If they wind up buying it out, it's more like a little over $9M a year for 4 years, if they pick it up, it'll probably wind up being in the 5 years, $50M-ish neighborhood. Still a very good deal, just not ridiculously team favorable that a $7M per year deal would be.
