2004 Top Ten: CEO Payouts: Page 4 of 6

No. 4 Gary Bloom, Veritas

On top of his $1 million salary, the Veritas CEO earned a $1.85 million bonus based on hitting EPS and revenue growth targets in 2003. But accounting goofs may scoop away some of the glory (see Veritas Revises Balance Sheet). And once the Symantec merger goes through, Bloom won't be a CEO at all, but president under Symantec CEO John Thompson (see Symantec & Veritas: It's a Deal).

No. 3 James Lambert, Dot Hill Systems

The head of Tier 2 SAN vendor Dot Hill Systems Corp. (Nasdaq: HILL) received a $1.27 million performance bonus in 2003, which isn’t all that much less than Tucci got from EMC. The Dot Hill board also raised Lambert’s salary from $350,000 in 2003 to $385,000 in 2004.

No. 2 Pat Martin, StorageTek
