(*) In addition, in the first half of 2022 and 2021, the Chief Executive Officer accrued, each financial year, an amount of €327 thousand as cash in lieu of pension and €300 thousand as mobility allowance, in accordance with the contractual terms and conditions and the BBVA Directors' Remuneration Policy in force at the time.
The accrual and award of the Annual Variable Remuneration (hereinafter, "AVR") takes place, if so, once the financial year has ended, and therefore, no amount is shown for the first half of 2022 and 2021.
In 2023, the amount of Annual Variable Remuneration for 2022 will be determined, and if the conditions are met, the Initial Portion (40%) will be paid in the first half of the 2023 financial year. All this, in accordance with the rules applicable to the Annual Variable Remuneration set out in the BBVA Directors' Remuneration Policy.
With regard to the Annual Variable Remuneration for 2021, the Initial Portion (40%) was paid in the first half of 2022 in equal parts in cash and BBVA shares (€849 thousand and 159,235 shares in the case of the Chair and €645 thousand and 120,977 shares in the case of the Chief Executive Officer).

The Deferred Portion may be reduced, but never increased, depending on the results of the multi-year performance indicators, determined by the Board of Directors at the beginning of 2021. At the end of the year corresponding to the third year of the deferral, the result of the multi-year performance indicators will determine the ex-post adjustments, if any, to be made to the amount of the Deferred Portion not yet paid. All of this, subject to the rules for Annual Variable Remuneration set forth in the BBVA Directors' Remuneration Policy.
In addition, in the first half of 2022, the executive directors received the remuneration corresponding to the Deferred AVR for 2018 financial year, whose payment was due in 2022, together with the update of the cash portion (€364 thousand and 107,386 shares in the case of the Chair and €332 thousand and 61,282 shares in the case of the Chief Executive Officer).
