However, it said that Thorburn’s unvested deferred awards would be forfeited in accordance with plan rules.
NAB’s interim chief executive, non-executive director, Phil Chronican will receive a fixed monthly fee of $150,000 including superannuation, representing annualised remuneration of $1.8 million and will not receive non-executive director fees in the role.
The selection committee to recruit a new chairman will be chaired by director, David Armstrong while the CEO selection committee will be chaired by Ann Sherry.
