Satya Nadella, the new Microsoft CEO, will get a base annual salary of USD 1.2 million, but his overall package after taking into account bonus and stock awards may reach USD 18 million (Rs. 112 crore) a year besides various other perks.
As per his new employment agreement, the Indian-origin CEO of USD 78-billion software major will be paid his salary on "semi-monthly" basis at an annual rate of USD 1.2 million (Rs. 7.5 crore).
46-year-old Nadella, who has been with Microsoft for 22 years, would also be eligible for a cash bonus, which can range from zero to 300 per cent, resulting into total payout of up to USD 3.6 million.
Besides this, Nadella, who is a cricket fan, will get stock awards to the tune of USD 13.2 million, taking the total package to USD 18 million.
Nadella's annual salary would be determined by the company's Executive Incentive Programme (EIP).
The top executive would be eligible for an annual EIP stock award worth USD 13.2 million from 2015 fiscal year, according to Microsoft's offer letter to Nadella.
"For Microsoft's 2014 and 2015 fiscal years, your annual cash award target will be 300 per cent of your salary earned as CEO during the fiscal year.
"Your actual cash award can be from 0-300 per cent of the target and will be based on your performance as evaluated by the Board," the letter said, a copy of which has been submitted to the US market regulator SEC.
