Allocating the fair value of the share-based payments to the respective years they are economically linked to, the total compensation of the Executive Board members for the years 2017, 2016, and 2015 was as follows:

Executive Board Compensation

€ thousands	2017	2016	2015
Short-term employee benefits	16,634	19,206	15,137
Share-based payment1)	25,723	23,942	10,365
Subtotal1)	42,357	43,148	25,502
Post-employment benefits	1,312	2,398	1,278
Thereof defined-benefit	423	1,792	288
Thereof defined-contribution	889	606	990
Total1)	43,669	45,546	26,780
1) Portion of total executive compensation allocated to the respective year

The share-based payment amounts disclosed above for 2017 and 2016 are based on the grant date fair value of the restricted share units (RSUs) and performance share units (PSUs), respectively, issued to Executive Board members during the year under the LTI 2016 Plan, effective January 1, 2016.

The Executive Board members already received, in 2012, the LTI grants for the years 2012 to 2015 subject to continuous service as member of the Executive Board in the respective years. Although these grants are compensation for the Executive Board members in the respective years, section 314 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) required them to be included in the total compensation number for the year of grant. Upon his appointment to the Executive Board in 2015, Michael Kleinemeier received a grant related to 2015. Vesting of the LTI grants is dependent on the respective Executive Board member’s continuous service for the Company.

The share-based payment for 2015 as defined in section 314 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) amounts to €263,200 and 4,622 RSUs, respectively, based on the allocation for 2015 for Michael Kleinemeier, which was granted in 2015 in line with his appointment to the Executive Board.

Considering the grant date fair value of the RSUs allocated in 2015 instead of the economically allocated amount of share-based payments in the table above, the sum of short-term employee benefits and share-based payment amounts to €15,400,400 and the total Executive Board compensation amounts to €16,678,400.

Share-Based Payment for Executive Board Members

	2017	2016	2015
Number of RSUs granted	117,929	147,041	192,345
Number of PSUs granted	176,886	220,561	NA
Total expense in € thousands	19,068	14,233	22,310

In the table above, the share-based payment expense is the amount recorded in profit or loss under IFRS 2 (Share Based Payments) in the respective period.

The defined benefit obligation (DBO) for pensions to Executive Board members and the annual pension entitlement of the members of the Executive Board on reaching age 60 based on entitlements from performance-based and salary-linked plans were as follows:

Retirement Pension Plan for Executive Board Members

€ thousands	2017	2016	2015
DBO December 31	3,191	10,739	8,948
Annual pension entitlement	148	470	427

The total annual compensation of the Supervisory Board members is as follows:

Supervisory Board Compensation

€ thousands	2017	2016	2015
Total compensation	3,663	3,652	3,728
Thereof fixed compensation	3,135	3,135	3,250
Thereof committee remuneration	528	517	479

The Supervisory Board members do not receive any share-based payment for their services. As far as members who are employee representatives on the Supervisory Board receive share-based payment, such compensation is for their services as employees only and is unrelated to their status as members of the Supervisory Board.

Payments to/DBO for Former Executive Board Members

€ thousands	2017	2016	2015
Payments	1,997	1,667	1,580
DBO December 31	39,993	33,935	32,758

SAP did not grant any compensation advance or credit to, or enter into any commitment for the benefit of, any member of the Executive Board or Supervisory Board in 2017, 2016, or 2015.
