Just confirmed this while thinking logically that if team options didn't pay out it could be exploited badly by releasing players with multiple team options for nothing
You have to pay the buyout on the TO (which in his case is $0) but you don't pay the full contract amount. It is treated as though you had declined the option as I said.

edit: Here is a player who is just finishing the season and has 2 TOs with $1m BOs. I release him and I have to pay the 2 BOs (we are in the playoffs of the current year hence don't owe anymore on it) but not the full values of the TO years.
