UCF announced Terry Mohajir as the new athletics director on Tuesday, but records obtained by Knight News show he is also the new UCF Athletics Association President.
In addition to Director of Athletics, Mohajir will serve as Vice President of Athletics at UCF — a position that directly reports to UCF President Alexander Cartwright, who serves as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of UCFAA.
The employment contract — which UCF has not yet presented according to this agreement — will be for a period of five years with an option for a two-year extension after a 24-month review at Cartwright’s discretion.
Mohajir and UCF have agreed upon an annual base salary of $795,000.
- In year two, the base salary will increase to $825,000.
- In year three, the base salary will increase to $850,000.
- In year four, the base salary will increase to $900,000.
- In year five, the base salary will increase to $950,000.
Mohajir will receive annual incentive compensation of up to $200,000 for achieving academic, athletic and financial performance goals as determined by Cartwright, according to the agreement.
Mohajir will be reimbursed for his household moving expenses, a monthly car stipend and a club membership, in accordance with UCFAA policy, records show.
He is set to receive all standard benefits on the same terms as provided by the university or the athletics association that are provided to all professional employees, with contributions and benefits based upon the base salary where relevant, the agreement shows.
UCF Athletics Association has agreed to pay Mohajir’s buyout, which is not specified in this agreement.
