In August 2014 the [[ICANN Board]] resolved to renew Mr. Chehadé's contract until June 30, 2017, although his contract with ICANN was not set to expire until July 2015. The Board noted that the early renewal signaled their confidence in his leadership. Chehadé received an increase in his base salary from $560,000 to $630,000 and a bonus increase from $240,000 to $270,000. Despite the increase, Chehadé's salary package was still less than previous CEO [[Rod Beckstrom]], who had a base salary of $750,000.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/17154-two-more-years-chehade-stays-at-icann-with-100000-pay-raise Two More Years!
