Art Pinhead, owner of a prominent NFL Football team, and his franchise-making star quarterback of eight years enter into a new written contract running until 1999 for millions of
dollars. The contract states the money and contract duration are “not guaranteed” and says Art “can terminate the agreement at any time immediately upon simple notice without
cause.” Four weeks after reaching the agreement with the team in mid-season and in first place Art’s coach. Bill Controlfreak, who prefers quarterbacks who shut up and take
orders, complains to Art about the quarterback’s creative but insubordinate style, and Art marches the quarterback into his office, pays him what is due under the contract to date,
and gives him notice of termination. The quarterback now sits on a sideline bench somewhere in Miami Florida

c. The agreement lacks mutuality of obligation because it is “at will.
