I am looking at the document of 20 February. Breda O'Keeffe was the chief financial officer. She was in negotiations with the agent for Ryan Tubridy, who very clearly says that he needs a side letter agreement from RTÉ to guarantee and underwrite this fee for the duration of the contract and beyond, into the next contract. The document says that "good progress" was made on what the commercial agreement would be, with one appearance in Dublin and two outside Dublin. At the very end, it says that RTÉ will provide a side letter to underwrite this fee for the duration of the contract. That document is dated 20 February.
