For 2012, Dimon took a huge pay cut when he earned $11.5 million following the "London Whale" trade debacle.

Here's the 8-K (emphasis ours):

JPMorgan Chase & Co. ("JPMorgan Chase" or the "Company") announced today that the independent members of the Board of Directors (the "Board") have approved 2013 incentive compensation for Jamie Dimon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, in the amount of $18.5 million - all in the form of Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs"). The RSUs vest over three years - 50% after two years and 50% after three years, thus tying Mr. Dimon's 2013 compensation to the Company's future performance, including continued progress on the Company's regulatory agenda.

In determining Mr. Dimon's compensation, the independent members of the Board took into account several key factors, among them: the Company's sustained long-term performance; gains in market share and customer satisfaction; and the regulatory issues the Company has faced and the steps the Company has taken to resolve those issues, including those arising from events at Washington Mutual and Bear Stearns that predated the Company's ownership. Under Mr. Dimon's stewardship, the Company has fortified its control infrastructure and processes and strengthened each of its key businesses while continuing to focus on strengthening the Company's leadership capabilities across all levels.
