When the President and CEO was hired, he was offered a base salary, plus an at-risk component of his compensation package. Consistent with all ICANN staff members, the President and CEO is to be evaluated against specific goals that he sets in coordination with the Compensation Committee.
In London, the Compensation Committee reviewed with the President and CEO his FY14 T3 goals and discussed his achievements against those goals. Following that discussion, the Compensation Committee has recommended that the Board approve the President and CEO's at-risk compensation for the third trimester of FY14 and the Board agrees with that recommendation.
While this will have a fiscal impact on ICANN, it is an impact that was contemplated in the FY14 budget. This decision will not have an impact on the security, stability or resiliency of the domain name system.
