Proxy firm Glass Lewis joins ISS in urging vote against Musk's $1 trillion pay package
Proxy advisory firms Glass Lewis and Institutional Shareholder Services recommend rejecting Elon Musk’s $1 trillion pay plan citing shareholder dilution and governance risks.
- Glass Lewis recommended shareholders vote against Elon Musk's $1 trillion pay package, joining Institutional Shareholder Services ahead of the Tesla shareholder meeting on November 6.
- Tesla's board in September proposed a $1 trillion stock award for Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, tying payouts to multiple stock and product milestones.
- Glass Lewis highlighted proposal 3's 208 million share Musk award, tied to a 208 million-share employee pool, and flagged proposal 4 as excessively dilutive and risky.
- Ahead of November 6, Tesla's post on X quoted `Glass Lewis’s one-size-fits-all checklists...`, criticizing the firms and citing the Delaware court decision voiding Musk's prior $1 trillion pay package.
- Given proxy advisers' market share, Institutional Shareholder Services said the package locks in high pay over ten years and Glass Lewis warned Musk's voting stake gives him a free 15% head-start.
