The Pep Boys _ Manny, Moe & Jack gave its former chief executive a compensation package worth $17.2 million for just over nine months of work in 2007, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing Friday.
Jeffrey Rachor, an executive hired from Sonic Automotive Inc. in March 2007, received a salary of $1.04 million and a bonus of $1.2 million. He left Pep Boys last month.
He also got nonequity incentive plan compensation of $1.8 million and other perks worth $743,068, mostly retirement benefits and company matches to deferred compensation.
