The university's prior agreement with Nike paid the university about $61,000 annually.
The Under Armour contract calls for the football and men's and women's basketball teams to receive $350,000 worth of equipment in 2015-2016. That number drops to $325,000 over the next four years.
Under Armour will also provide ODU coaches and staff members with $25,000 of credit to purchase attire and will pay the university a $20,000 per year rights fee.
In 2015-2016, credits and payments will total $395,000.
