Sidney Taurel, who is retiring at the end of March after nearly a decade as CEO of Indianapolis-based Eli Lilly and Co., will see his salary cut in half while he remains chairman through the end of 2008.
His base salary will be $864,250, with a $1.2 million non-stock bonus. The bonus figure is a target that actually could range from nothing to double that amount.
The figures were part of a Securities and Exchange Commission filing earlier this week.
Taurel, 58, is being replaced by Lilly President and Chief Operating Officer John Lechleiter.
