The contract includes an option to extend the partnership for an additional five years. The agreement also requires him to engage with the university on social media, with at least a dozen posts annually, and to participate in at least one fundraising event for FIU athletics each year. Additionally, Pitbull has committed to recording a new anthem for FIU.
