It's a 1 year deal. 2M base + up to 2M in signing bonuses.
I said an extra million because I'm assuming the Oilers would have been willing to pay the 2 or 2.5. Maybe it was a million and half. Semantics.
And I think he wanted to stay and take another run at a cup. I think it's likely that if they had prioritized signing him that maybe he takes a bit less. So maybe they get him for 3.5. But even worst case scenario they pay him what he's worth and has shown again and again (and again) what he can do for a team.
The thing is that this team draws these weird arbitrary lines in the sane based on who knows what were they decide that all of a sudden that extra 1 or 2M for a Broberg or a Perry is just impossible to make work and they act like the decisions are justified because they couldn't possibly find a way to create cap space. But then they always do (just like every other team) and they spend it on bad players.
I think they could have kept Perry if they would have prioritized him even a little bit. They chose not to which I think was incredibly stupid based on the information that they had at the time.

He's 41, and he's had a really up & down year for the Kings. Some great streaks, some long streaks with no points. He's old and slow though, and you can't count on 41 year olds. And we don't need him counting for an extra $2MM against next year's cap.
Holland is senile and gave him a crazy contract (similar to how he overpaid for Ceci & Dumoulin). We have made a lot of mistakes, but paying $4MM for a guy who's a 41-year old depth guy would just be another one.
I do think there's some analysis that the team needs to do on why everyone fails as a bottom-6 guy here, because not everyone can play with Connor & Leon.
