Former Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg will get a nice going-away package — $62.2 million.

Boeing said Friday that Muilenburg was contractually entitled to the payout but he won't get extra severance and will forfeit another $14.6 million in stock awards.

Financial Times reports that on top of that, Muilenberg has fully vested options to buy nearly 73,000 shares at an exercise price. As of Friday, these were worth $18.5 million
