Apple changed Tim Cook's pay package putting 40% of his 1 million Apple shares at risk if the company's stock doesn't outperform the market over the next eight years, according to a document filed with the SEC.

"Mr. Cook is leading this initiative by example and has the full support of the Board of Directors," the document says.
