Tesla shareholders have voted in favor of a substantial compensation package for CEO Elon Musk, signaling their confidence in his leadership of the electric vehicle company. The vote, which took place at Tesla’s annual meeting in Austin, Texas, saw investors backing a plan that could see Musk receive up to $56 billion.

Despite opposition from some large institutional investors and proxy firms, the proposal for Musk’s compensation package was passed based on preliminary vote results, as confirmed by Tesla’s corporate secretary Brandon Ehrhart. This decision comes after a judge nullified the package earlier this year, highlighting the contentious nature of the compensation plan.

In a celebratory moment captured on video and shared on Musk-owned platform X, Elon Musk was seen dancing with excitement upon the announcement of the pay package. The video clip shows Musk energetically entering the stage, pumping his fists, jumping, and dancing as the crowd cheered and chanted his name.

While some users on X praised Musk’s achievements and expressed support for his compensation, acknowledging his role in Tesla’s success, the legal battle over the package continues. The compensation plan, initially approved by Tesla’s board and shareholders six years ago, is still under scrutiny in the Delaware Chancery Court and Supreme Court as Tesla works to overturn the initial rejection.

The package’s fate rests on whether Tesla adequately informed shareholders about its details, a key factor that legal experts believe will determine the outcome of the ongoing legal dispute. Meanwhile, Tesla shareholders also approved the company’s relocation from Delaware to Texas, aligning with Tesla’s operational base.
