All you can do when it comes to agreements as the client are two things. You can wait until the expiration period on the listing agreement comes up. Or, you can request that your agent/broker release you from the agreement. Since Listing agreements cannot have an automatic renewal, once the expiration is reached, the agreement terminates. There would be no reason the agent/broker would not release you unless they are owed compensation or are scorn (which is incredibly unprofessional)
