Lip-Bu Tan’s base salary for the top post at the chip maker is $1 million a year, compared with the $1.25 million Pat Gelsinger received. The differences don’t end there.

U.S. chipmaker Intel's new CEO Lip-Bu Tan will receive a salary of $1 million and be eligible for an annual cash bonus of up to $2 million, the company said in a regulatory filing on Friday.

Together, we will work hard to restore Intel’s position as a world-class products company, establish ourselves as a world-class foundry and delight our customers like never before,” Tan said in a letter to Intel employees on Wednesday.
