Compensation

While CEO of Navistar International in 2008, Daniel Ustian earned a total compensation of $6,642,747, which included a base salary of $1,170,833, a cash bonus of $2,589,500, stocks granted of $2,775,216, and no options.

Retirement

Daniel Ustian abruptly retired as President, Executive Chairman, and CEO of Navistar International on August 27, 2012. Lewis B. Campbell immediately stepped in to replace him as Chairman and interim CEO. Ustian is largely blamed for convincing the company to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the unproven and noncompliant Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) technology. EGR did not receive EPA certification, which led to governmental fines, high warranty costs, widespread retrofits, brand damage and loss of marketshare. Since Ustian's departure, the company has struggled to return to profitability. Navistar has also undergone two rounds of lay-offs -- one in August/September 2012 and another in August/September 2013.

On March 31, 2016, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed suit against Ustian in the U.S. District Court for Northern Illinois, citing a "campaign of deception" regarding the company's ultimately unsuccessful 2010 emissions compliance strategy, seeking "disgorgement" of earnings and profits that resulted from the deception, and a ban on future positions involving equity trading.
