Two other newcomers to the top 10—who weren't even listed last year—were Bobby R. Johnson Jr., chief executive of Foundry Networks Inc. in San Jose, CA, and Stephen M. Case, head of America Online Inc. in Dulles, VA.
Forbes said Johnson's compensation totaled $230.5 million, giving him the No. 2 ranking, while Case collected $117.1 million to land in the No. 6 spot, the magazine said.
Other chief executives in the top 10 were Mel Karmazin of CBS, $201.9 million; Millard Drexler of The Gap, $172.8 million; John T. Chambers of Cisco Systems, $121.7; Louis V. Gerstner Jr. of IBM, $107.2 million; John F. Welch Jr. of General Electric, $106.9 million; Reuben Mark of Colgate-Palmolive, $97.2 million; and Peter Karmanos Jr. of Compuware, $87.5 million.
