<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao MvWXB TjIXL aGjvy ebVHC ">Tesla’s<!-- --> <!-- -->board proposed a compensation package for CEO<!-- --> <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Business/elon-musk-blame-teslas-struggles-experts-weigh/story?id=124039268" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" dir="ltr">Elon Musk</a> <!-- -->that would catapult the tech entrepreneur’s wealth above $1 trillion if the company fulfills a set of rigorous benchmarks over the next decade, according to a securities filing on Friday.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Musk would rake in roughly $900 billion over the duration of the agreement, making him the best-compensated CEO ever recorded.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The full compensation would only be delivered if Musk vaults the company from its present value of $1.1 trillion to $8.5 trillion, a figure that exceeds the current combined market values of Meta, Microsoft and Google-parent Alphabet, the <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0001318605/000110465925087598/tm252289-4_pre14a.htm#tPRO4" target="_blank" dir="ltr">filing</a> says.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The compensation package also includes a set of production goals, including one million Robotaxis in commercial operation and the delivery of one million humanoid robots over the next 10 years. The compensation proposal requires approval from Tesla shareholders.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Musk, considered the world&#8217;s richest person, currently boasts a net worth of about $430 billion, according to <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/elon-musk/" target="_blank" dir="ltr">Forbes</a>. If he were to receive the full pay package, Musk would become the world&#8217;s first-ever trillionaire.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">A detailed set of compensation tranches and company benchmarks would help ensure that Musk remains at Tesla over a long-term period and aligns his performance with the company&#8217;s financial success, board members Robyn Denholm and Kathleen Wilson-Thompson said in a letter to Tesla shareholders.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;Tesla does not currently have a long-term CEO performance award in place to retain and incentivize Elon to focus his energies on Tesla and lead us through this pivotal moment in our history. It&#8217;s time to change that,&#8221; Denholm and Wilson-Thompson wrote.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Seth Goldstein, an analyst at research firm Morningstar who verified an ABC News estimate of the potential value of the compensation proposal, said the payment plan would help ensure Musk&#8217;s continued focus on Tesla.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;It rewards Musk for growing Tesla&#8217;s market cap and delivering strong shareholder returns,&#8221; Goldstein said. &#8220;This removes a key near-term risk for the stock if Musk were to leave Tesla.&#8221;</p>

<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The pay package would also increase Musk&#8217;s ownership stake in Tesla, affording him greater control over the firm, Goldstein noted. Musk has long-pursued a larger ownership stake.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The company&#8217;s new compensation package arrives as Musk&#8217;s previous payment plan remains in legal limbo.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Last year, a Delaware judge twice <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Business/judge-rejected-elon-musks-50-billion-tesla-pay/story?id=116403271" target="_blank" dir="ltr">struck down</a> a $50 billion pay package for Musk put forward by the company in 2018.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick of the Court of Chancery, which litigates corporate governance litigation for companies incorporated in Delaware,<!-- --> <!-- -->initially declared that the negotiations surrounding the package had been inappropriate, due to a lack of independence among board members and problematic influence by Musk over those negotiations.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">In a second ruling, McCormick decided that an additional shareholder vote on the compensation package &#8212; even if made with full knowledge of the initial problems surrounding the negotiation of the agreement &#8212; could not undo those problems. Musk has appealed the ruling.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Tesla&#8217;s profits <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Business/tesla-profits-drop-16-elon-musk-faces-continued/story?id=123991661" target="_blank" dir="ltr">fell</a> 16% over a three-month period ending in June that overlapped with the end of Musk&#8217;s time as a <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/elon-musk-departing-trump-administration/story?id=122292783" target="_blank" dir="ltr">&#8220;special government employee&#8221;</a> <!-- -->with the Trump administration<!-- --> <!-- -->and his ensuing public clash with President Donald Trump, an earnings release in July showed.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The losses marked the second consecutive quarterly revenue drop for the company.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Musk&#8217;s work with the Trump administration, which ended in May, set off demonstrations at Tesla dealerships worldwide in protest of his effort to slash government spending as leader of the Department of Government Efficiency.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">On an earnings call with analysts after the second quarter results were released, Musk fielded a question about his control of the company, which a Morgan Stanley analyst said was 13%.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC eTIW sUzSN ">&#8220;As I mentioned before, I think my control of Tesla should be enough to ensure that it goes in a good direction, but not so much control that I can&#8217;t be thrown out if I go crazy,&#8221; Musk said in jest.</p>
