Asked by the board of directors to step down in 2005, Fiorina left with $21 million in cash, plus stock and pension benefits worth another $19 million. According to HP executive compensation rules, departing executives are entitled to no more than 2.99 times their base salary; anything more requires stockholder approval. Fiorina's parachute was more than that, so the stockholders filed a class action suit (a federal judge dismissed it in April 2008).
Fiorina is now a Fox Business Network contributor and a top economic advisor to Republican presidential candidate John McCain." (from article of 2008) http://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1848501_1848500_1848417,00.html
