Tesla’s General Counsel Brandon Ehrhart confirmed that over 75 percent of shareholders voted in favor of the plan during the company’s annual general meeting. The meeting took place both physically and online, marking one of the largest pay approvals in corporate history.
After the announcement, Elon Musk took the stage to express his gratitude. Smiling and dancing beside two Tesla robots, Musk said, “I really appreciate it. Thank you, everyone.”
He added that the company was entering not just a new chapter but an entirely new book in its history. The audience cheered as Musk celebrated the overwhelming shareholder support, calling it a significant step in Tesla’s ongoing mission to advance technology and innovation.
