(Reuters) - Microsoft ( MSFT )-backed OpenAI is planning to restructure its core business into a for-profit benefit corporation no longer controlled by its non-profit board, Reuters reported on Wednesday, even as another senior executive departed.

The ChatGPT-maker could be worth $150 billion after the restructuring, and CEO Sam Altman will also receive equity for the first time, the report added. The news comes as Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati, announced she would leave, following a series of other senior executives.

Here is a list of some notable departures and additions.

OpenAI had 11 founding members, including Altman and Elon Musk, who were the group's co-chairs. Only two of the original members, Altman and Wojciech Zaremba are still with the company.
