By Kyeland Jackson —

Between July 2016 and now, the U of L Foundation paid executives more than $8 million in deferred compensation.

The ULF Accounting Supervisor Justin Ruhl detailed the payouts during July 14’s finance committee meeting. Ruhl said those payments marked as a liability, draining funds from the the ULF’s $800 million funds.

“The other liabilities in their (finance committee’s) ballot sheet includes executive deferred compensation, so our liability decreased from payouts in fiscal year 2017 by approximately $8 million – a little over $8 million,” Ruhl said.
