Peer Group Issuers, Footnote TSR determined in Column (f) is based on the value of an initial fixed investment of $100 in our Company's stock (NASDAQ: KLIC) as of October 2, 2020. TSR determined in Column (g) is based on the value of an initial fixed investment of $100 in the S&P 600 Semiconductor Materials & Equipment Index as of October 2, 2020.      
PEO Total Compensation Amount $ 7,367,854 $ 6,877,217 $ 6,221,903 $ 6,351,696
PEO Actually Paid Compensation Amount $ 4,832,203 10,185,047 (5,007,404) 35,208,977
Adjustment To PEO Compensation, Footnote The dollar amounts reported in column (c) and (e) represent the amount of “compensation actually paid” (otherwise known as CAP), as computed in accordance with the applicable SEC rules. “Compensation actually paid” does not necessarily represent cash and/or equity value transferred to the applicable NEO without restriction, but rather is a value calculated under applicable SEC rules. We do not have a defined benefit plan so no adjustment for pension benefits is included in the table below. Similarly, no adjustment is made for dividends as dividends are factored into the fair value of the award. The following table details these adjustments:
