[whispers so Backs' agent can't hear] You are right, but if that's just the ask, Treliving would be negligent not to make a counteroffer.

But since Backs makes $3.5 now there isn't much space - he's not standing pat and $4M would an insulting $500K raise (I should be insulted like that at my job though). So now I've talked myself into quibbling between $4.5 and $5M? Doesn't seem like it's worth it.

I suppose there's a bunch to be discussed around NMC/NTC, signing bonus, lockout protection, etc.
