WEX INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of WEX Inc. and its subsidiaries, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10–Q and Rule 10–01 of Regulation S–X. Accordingly, they exclude certain disclosures required by GAAP for a complete set of financial statements. Unless the context suggests otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “WEX,” the “Company,” “we” or “our” refer to WEX Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future periods or the year ending December 31, 2025. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 20, 2025 (“2024 Annual Report”).
We have applied the same accounting policies in preparing these quarterly financial statements as we did in preparing our 2024 annual financial statements. The Company rounds amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to millions and calculates all percentages and per-share data from underlying whole-dollar amounts. Thus, certain amounts may not foot, crossfoot or recalculate based on reported numbers due to rounding. We have included certain terms and abbreviations used throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q within “Acronyms and Abbreviations” in the front of this document.
2. Significant Accounting Policies

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company evaluates all ASUs recently issued by the FASB for consideration of their applicability. Any recently issued ASUs not listed in the following table were assessed and determined to either not be applicable, or have not had, or are not expected to have, a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenues
In accordance with Topic 606, revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied as defined by the terms of the contract, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services provided. Income recognized that is not derived from a contract with a customer within the scope of Topic 606 is included within Non-Topic 606 revenues.

Contract Balances
The majority of the Company’s receivables, which are excluded from the table below, are either due from cardholders who have not been deemed our customer as it relates to interchange income, or from revenues earned outside of the scope of Topic 606. The Company’s contract assets consist of upfront payments to customers under long-term contracts and are recorded upon the later of when the Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of the related goods or services or when the Company pays or promises to pay the consideration. The resulting asset is amortized against revenue as the Company satisfies its performance obligations under these arrangements. The Company’s contract liabilities consist of customer payments received before the Company has satisfied the associated performance obligations. The following table provides information about these contract balances:

(1)The transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations represents the minimum monthly fees on certain service contracts, which contain substantive termination penalties that require the counterparty to pay the Company for the aggregate remaining minimum monthly fees upon an early termination for convenience. These obligations will be recognized within account servicing revenue.
(2)Substantially represents deferred revenue and contractual minimums associated with payment processing service obligations. Consideration associated with certain relationships is variable and the measurement and estimation of contract consideration is contingent upon payment processing volumes and maintaining volume shares, among others.
4. Acquisitions
Asset Acquisition
During January 2025, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the purchase of a portfolio of factoring accounts receivable from a third-party, which serves various customers in the U.S. transportation industry. During March 2025, the Company closed on the acquisition of these receivables, paying the seller a preliminary purchase price of $144.5 million, which includes a 10 percent premium relative to the net value of the receivables balance as of the valuation date, plus certain customary adjustments, as defined in the purchase and sale agreement. We accounted for this transaction under the asset acquisition method of accounting and allocated $130.0 million of the total cost of the acquisition to accounts receivable, net of allowance and $14.5 million to a customer relationship intangible asset with a ten-year life. The consideration paid for the accounts receivable was included within operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

5. Accounts Receivable, Net
Accounts receivable consists of amounts billed to and due from customers across a wide range of industries and other third parties. The Company often extends short-term credit to cardholders by paying the merchant for the purchase price less the fees it retains and records as revenue, then subsequently collecting the total purchase price from the cardholder. The Company also extends revolving credit to certain small fleets. The Company had approximately $116.0 million and $114.1 million in gross receivables with revolving credit balances as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The allowance for accounts receivable consists of reserves for both credit and fraud losses, reflecting management’s current estimate of uncollectible balances on its accounts receivable. The following tables present changes in the accounts receivable allowances by portfolio segment:

(1)The provision is comprised of estimated credit losses based on the Company’s loss-rate experience and includes adjustments required for forecasted credit loss information. The provision for credit losses reported within this table also includes the provision for fraud losses.
(2)Consists primarily of charges to other accounts. The Company earns revenue by assessing monthly finance fees on accounts with overdue balances. These fees are recognized as revenue at the time the fees are assessed. The finance fee is calculated using the greater of a minimum charge or a stated late fee rate multiplied by the outstanding balance that is subject to a late fee charge. On occasion, these fees are waived to maintain relationship goodwill. Charges to other accounts substantially represent the offset against the late fee revenue recognized when the Company establishes a reserve for such waived amounts.
The following table presents the outstanding balance of trade accounts receivable that are less than 30 and 60 days past due, shown in each case as a percentage of total trade accounts receivable:
Delinquency Status March 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
Less than 30 days past due 99  % 98  %
Less than 60 days past due 99  % 99  %
Concentration of Credit Risk
The receivables portfolio primarily consists of a large group of homogeneous balances across a wide range of industries, which are collectively evaluated for impairment. No individual customer had a receivable balance representing 10 percent or more of the outstanding receivables balance at March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

6. Repurchases of Common Stock
Under share buyback plans, which may be authorized by our board of directors from time to time, the Company may repurchase up to specified dollar values of shares of its common stock through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, issuer self-tender offers or other methods approved by our board of directors.
Modified “Dutch auction” Tender Offer
On February 26, 2025, the Company commenced a modified “Dutch auction” tender offer to repurchase up to $750.0 million worth of its common stock (the “Tender Offer”). On March 31, 2025, the Company completed the Tender Offer and accepted for purchase a total of approximately 4.9 million shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $154 per share. The Company paid $750.0 million in cash to complete the Tender Offer, excluding related costs and fees. The Company incurred approximately $4.1 million of costs and fees related to the Tender Offer, which are recorded along with the cost of the shares repurchased as treasury stock on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Summary of Share Repurchases
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, pursuant to our existing previously approved and announced repurchase program, the Company repurchased the following approximate shares of common stock, inclusive of the share purchases under the Tender Offer, which have been recorded as treasury stock:
(In millions) Shares
Total Cost1
Three months ended March 31, 2025 5.1 $ 801.6 
Three months ended March 31, 2024 0.4 $ 73.6 
1 Reflects the applicable one percent excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 on the net value of certain stock repurchases and costs and fees of the Tender Offer.

7. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and vested DSUs outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share, except that diluted earnings per share includes the assumed exercise of dilutive options, the assumed issuance of unvested RSUs, performance-based awards for which the performance condition has been met as of the date of determination and contingently issuable shares that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period was the end of the contingency period, using the treasury stock method unless the effect is anti-dilutive. The treasury stock method assumes that proceeds, including cash received from the exercise of employee stock options and the average unrecognized compensation expense for unvested share-based compensation awards, would be used to purchase the Company’s common stock at the average market price during the period.
The following table presents net income and reconciles basic and diluted shares outstanding used in the earnings per share computations:
  Three Months Ended March 31,

2025 2024
Net income $ 71.5  $ 65.8

(1)For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, 0.6 million and 0.3 million of outstanding share-based compensation awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share under the treasury stock method, as the effect of including those shares would be anti-dilutive.

8. Derivative Instruments
Contingent Consideration Derivative Liability
At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had a contingent consideration derivative liability associated with its asset acquisition from Bell Bank. See Note 13, Financial Instruments − Fair Value and Concentrations of Credit Risk, for further discussion of this derivative and for more information regarding the valuation of the Company’s derivatives.

Credit Agreement
As of December 31, 2024, under the Credit Agreement, we had senior secured tranche A term loans (the “Term A Loans”), senior secured tranche B term loans (the “Term B Loans”) and outstanding commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility.
On March 6, 2025, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the Seventh Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”), which, among other things, established an incremental tranche of senior secured tranche B term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $450.0 million (the “Incremental Term B-3 Loans”), which are scheduled to mature on March 6, 2032. The Incremental Term B-3 Loans were issued with 0.5 percent original issue discount (OID) and bear interest at variable rates at the Company’s option, plus an applicable margin, which is fixed at 0.75 percent for base rate borrowings and 1.75 percent with respect to Term SOFR borrowings. The Incremental Term B-3 Loans may be voluntarily prepaid, subject to a 1.00 percent prepayment premium within six months of the closing date of the Seventh Amendment. The proceeds from the Incremental Term B-3 Loans were primarily used to fund the Tender Offer and to repay a portion of the Company’s outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility.

See Note 6, Repurchases of Common Stock, for more information on the Tender Offer.
The Company incurred debt financing costs of approximately $4.9 million in conjunction with the Seventh Amendment, in addition to the OID of $2.3 million. The OID and debt financing costs are being amortized over the term of the borrowing to financing interest expense, net of financial instruments.
Senior Notes
On March 6, 2025, the Company completed a private offering of $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.500% senior unsecured notes due March 15, 2033 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.5 percent per annum, payable semi-annually. The proceeds from the Senior Notes were primarily used to fund the Tender Offer discussed above under Credit Agreement and to repay a portion of the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. Subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Senior Notes may be redeemed at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at the following redemption prices:

The Company incurred debt financing costs of approximately $9.2 million in connection with the Senior Notes offering. The debt financing costs are being amortized over the term of the borrowing as non-cash interest expense.
Securitization Debt (VIEs)
Under securitized debt agreements, each month on a revolving basis, the Company sells certain of its Australian and European receivables to bankruptcy-remote entities that are VIEs consolidated by the Company, which in turn use the receivables as collateral to issue securitized debt. Amounts collected on the securitized receivables, including an immaterial amount of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, are restricted to pay the securitized debt and are not available for general corporate purposes. Additionally, creditors of the VIE do not have recourse to WEX Inc. The Company pays interest on the outstanding balance of the securitized debt based on variable interest rates plus an applicable margin.
The Company’s securitized debt agreement for the securitization of its European receivables is with MUFG Bank, Ltd., has a maximum revolving borrowing limit of €55.0 million and expires in April 2026, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties. The Company’s securitized debt facility for the securitization of its Australian receivables is with Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited, has a maximum revolving borrowing limit of A$115.0 million, expires in October 2025 and is annually renewable thereafter unless earlier terminated.
Participation Debt
From time to time, WEX Bank enters into participation agreements with third-party banks to fund customers’ balances that exceed WEX Bank’s lending limit to individual customers. Associated unsecured borrowings generally carry a variable interest rate set according to an applicable reference rate plus a margin, which was 2.25 percent as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has an outstanding participation agreement that allows for total borrowings of up to $70.0 million and expires in December 2025, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties. Borrowings under the participation agreement are included in short-term debt given they may be canceled by either party upon 60 days’ advance written notice.
FHLB Advances
WEX Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Des Moines, which provides WEX Bank short-term funding collateralized by investment securities. WEX Bank had $1.2 billion of collateralized borrowings outstanding with the FHLB as of March 31, 2025, with a remaining borrowing capacity of $8.7 million based on collateral provided as of that date.

Borrowed Federal Funds
WEX Bank borrows from short-term uncommitted federal funds lines of credit extended by various financial institutions to supplement the financing of the Company’s accounts receivable. Under these federal funds lines of credit as of March 31, 2025, WEX Bank had $110.0 million in outstanding borrowings, while as of December 31, 2024, WEX had no outstanding borrowings against these lines of credit.
Other Short Term Borrowings
As an additional source of liquidity, WEX Bank pledged $195.6 million as of March 31, 2025 of customer receivables held by WEX Bank to the Federal Reserve Bank as collateral for potential borrowings through the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window. Amounts that can be borrowed are based on the amount of collateral pledged and were $144.8 million and $137.7 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. WEX Bank had no borrowings outstanding on this line of credit through the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Under an uncommitted borrowing facility, WEX Australia can be advanced up to A$21.3 million from Bank of America in short-term funds. Interest accrues on any advances at a rate fixed for each interest period of 1.80 percent above the Australian Bank Bill Buying Rate for that interest period. The Company had no borrowings outstanding on this facility as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

11. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
WEX Europe Services and WEX Bank Accounts Receivable Factoring
WEX Europe Services and WEX Bank are each party to separate accounts receivable factoring arrangements with unrelated third-party financial institutions to sell certain of their accounts receivable balances. Each subsidiary continues to service these receivables post-transfer with no participating interest. Upon transfer, proceeds received are recorded net of applicable costs or negotiated discount rates and are recorded in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Cost of factoring, which was immaterial, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, is recorded within cost of services in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The WEX Europe Services agreement automatically renews each January 1 unless either party gives not less than 90 days written notice of their intention to withdraw. Under this agreement, accounts receivable are sold without recourse to the extent that the customer balances are maintained at or below the credit limit established by the buyer. The Company maintains the risk of default on any customer receivable balances in excess of the buyer’s credit limit, which were immaterial as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Under this arrangement, the Company sold $112.3 million and $130.6 million of accounts receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The WEX Bank agreement has no set expiration date, however, either party can terminate the agreement with 30 days’ notice. Under this arrangement, the Company sold $2.3 billion and $4.5 billion of trade accounts receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Non-Bank Custodial HSA Cash Assets
As a non-bank custodian, WEX Inc. contracts with depository partners to hold custodial cash assets on behalf of individual account holders. As of March 31, 2025, WEX Inc. was custodian to approximately $4.7 billion in HSA cash assets. Of these custodial balances, approximately $1.0 billion of HSA cash assets at March 31, 2025 were deposited with and managed by certain third-party partners and not recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such third-party depository partners are regularly monitored by management for stability. The remaining balance of $3.6 billion in HSA cash assets as of March 31, 2025 is deposited with and managed by WEX Bank and is therefore reflected on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 9, Deposits, for further information about HSA deposits recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The above table includes 604 investment positions at March 31, 2025, where the current fair value is less than the related amortized cost. Unrealized losses on the Company’s debt securities included in the above table are primarily driven by the elevated interest rate environment and are not considered to be credit-related based upon an analysis that considered the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized basis of a security, adverse conditions specifically related to the security, changes to credit rating of the instrument subsequent to Company purchase, and the strength of the underlying collateral, if any. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases.
The following table summarizes the contractual maturity dates of the Company’s debt securities.

(2)The fair value of this security is measured at NAV as a practical expedient and has not been classified within the fair value hierarchy. The amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(3)The fair value is recorded as current or long-term based on the timing of the Company’s executive deferred compensation plan payment obligations. At March 31, 2025, $1.5 million and $15.4 million in fair value is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively. At December 31, 2024, $1.8 million and $14.7 million in fair value is recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively.
(4)The fair value is recorded as current or long-term based on the timing of expected payments. At March 31, 2025, $47.2 million and $19.6 million in fair value is recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively. At December 31, 2024, $62.2 million and $66.0 million in fair value is recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively.
Money Market Mutual Funds
A portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in money market mutual funds that primarily consist of short-term government securities, which are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices for identical instruments in an active market.
Debt Securities
The Company determines the fair value of U.S. treasury notes using quoted market prices for similar or identical instruments in a market that is not active. For corporate and sovereign debt securities, municipal bonds, and asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, the Company generally uses quoted prices for recent trading activity of assets with similar characteristics to the debt security or bond being valued. The securities and bonds priced using such methods are generally valued using Level 2 inputs to the fair value hierarchy.
Pooled Investment Fund
The pooled investment fund maintains individual capital accounts for each investor, which reflect each individual investor’s share of the NAV of the fund. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had no unfunded commitments with respect to the fund. Investments in the fund may be redeemed monthly with 30 days’ notice.
Mutual Fund
The Company determines the fair value of its mutual fund using quoted market prices for identical instruments in an active market; such inputs are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Executive Deferred Compensation Plan Trust
The investments held in the executive deferred compensation plan trust, which consist primarily of mutual funds, are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy because the fair value is determined using quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Contingent Consideration
The Company is obligated to pay additional consideration to Bell Bank as part of a prior year asset acquisition, contingent upon increases in the Federal Funds rate from the date of acquisition. The Company determines the fair value of this contingent consideration derivative liability based on discounted cash flows using the difference between the baseline Federal Funds rate in the purchase agreement with Bell Bank and future forecasted Federal Funds rates over the agreement term. The resulting probability-weighted contingent consideration amounts were discounted using a rate of 3.98 percent as of March 31, 2025 and 4.42 percent as of December 31, 2024.

PART I
WEX INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(unaudited)
The Company records changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Due to significant increases in the Federal Funds rate since the acquisition date, the fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration derivative liability at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were effectively measured at the present value of the maximum remaining contingent consideration payable under the arrangement. Accordingly, the fair value of the contingent consideration could not materially increase, however, a significant decrease in the Federal Funds rate could result in a material decrease in the derivative liability.
Financial Instruments Measured at Carrying Value, for which Fair Value is Disclosed
The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, which are measured and reported at carrying value, is as follows for the periods indicated:
March 31, 2025 December 31, 2024
(in millions) Carrying value Fair value Carrying value Fair value
Term A-1 Loans(1)

Outstanding borrowings on Revolving Credit Facility(1)
954.3  ** 905.6  **
Senior Notes(1)
550.0  ** —  — 
**     Fair value approximates carrying value.
(1)The Company determines the fair value of borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loans and Senior Notes based on market rates for the issuance of the Company’s debt, which are Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
Other Assets and Liabilities
The carrying value of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, other than those presented above, including cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash payable, short-term contractual deposits and HSA deposits, accounts receivable and securitized accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other liabilities, approximate their respective fair values due to their short-term nature or maturities. The carrying value of certain other financial instruments, including interest-bearing money market deposits, securitized debt, participation debt, borrowed federal funds and deferred consideration associated with our acquisitions approximate their respective fair values due to stated interest rates being consistent with current market interest rates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, investment securities and trade receivables. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited because a large number of geographically and industry diverse customers make up our customer base. See Note 5, Accounts Receivable, Net, for further information.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are transacted and maintained with financial institutions with high credit standing. Cash balances at many of these institutions regularly exceed FDIC insured limits; however, management regularly monitors the financial institutions and the composition of the Company’s accounts. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes that the financial institutions at which the Company’s cash is held are stable. We attempt to limit our exposure to credit risk with our investment securities by establishing strict investment policies as to minimum investment ratings, diversification of our portfolio and setting risk tolerance levels.

14. Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate was 28.8 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 26.9 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2024, respectively. Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective rate, which requires the Company to make its best estimate of annual pretax income or loss. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was adversely impacted by a tax shortfall arising from stock-based compensation. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was adversely impacted by a discrete tax item of $3.7 million primarily associated with an uncertain tax position related to state income taxes, however, the vast majority of such impact was offset by excess tax benefits arising from stock-based compensation.
Undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company amounted to $336.0 million and $313.6 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company continues to maintain its indefinite reinvestment assertion for its investments in foreign subsidiaries except for any historical undistributed earnings and future earnings for WEX Australia. Upon distribution of these earnings, the Company would be subject to withholding taxes payable to foreign countries, where applicable, but would generally have no further federal income tax liability. It is not practicable to estimate the unrecognized deferred tax liability associated with these undistributed earnings; however, it is not expected to be material.
On December 12, 2022, the European Union (EU) Member States formally adopted the EU’s Pillar Two Directive, which generally provides for a minimum effective tax rate of 15 percent, as established by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two Framework that was supported by over 130 countries worldwide. The EU effective dates were January 1, 2024, and January 1, 2025, for different aspects of the directive. The impact of the Pillar Two Framework on the Company’s income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was not material. The Company is continuing to evaluate the potential impact of the Pillar Two Framework on future periods, pending legislative adoption by additional individual countries.
15. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation and Regulatory Matters
From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and regulatory matters in the ordinary course of business, including but not limited to: commercial disputes; contract disputes; employment litigation; disputes regarding our intellectual property rights; alleged infringement or misappropriation by us of intellectual property rights of others, and, matters relating to our compliance with applicable laws and regulations. As of the date of this filing, the current estimate of a reasonably possible loss contingency from all legal or regulatory proceedings is not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.
Commitments
Significant commitments and contingencies as of March 31, 2025 are consistent with those discussed in Note 20, Commitments and Contingencies, to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
16. Stock–Based Compensation
Under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2019 Equity and Incentive Plan (“the Equity and Incentive Plan”), the Company has regularly granted equity awards to certain employees and directors in the form of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards. In addition, the Equity and Incentive Plan allows the Company to grant shares of WEX common stock to employees in lieu of bonus or other compensation earned by such employees.
In lieu of cash compensation payable to certain employees under our 2025 short-term incentive plan (“STIP”), the Company expects to award shares of WEX stock in an amount equal to the total STIP compensation payable to each respective employee, divided by the closing price of WEX common stock on the date of settlement. These awards are treated as liability-classified equity awards and the expense associated with them is accrued over the one-year performance period and included within stock-based compensation expense below.

Stock-based compensation expense was $12.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and $28.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
17. Segment Information
The Company determines its operating segments and reports segment information in accordance with how our Chief Executive Officer, the Company’s CODM, allocates resources and assesses performance. The Company has both three operating segments and three reportable segments, as described below.
•Mobility provides payment solutions, transaction processing, and information management services to a diverse customer base globally. Beyond fuel cards, our portfolio includes SaaS solutions for field service management, telematics, reporting and analytics, cash flow management, and mixed-energy fleets.
•Corporate Payments delivers global B2B payment solutions, including our Direct to Corporate solution that integrates with ERPs and accounting workflows to maximize virtual payment usage, and our Embedded Payments solution that integrates virtual payment capabilities into existing workflows for a broad range of industries, including online travel. We also offer white-label partnerships with financial institutions.
•Benefits simplifies employee benefit plan administration through SaaS software integrated with payment solutions. We deliver diverse product offerings including benefit administration, HSAs, FSAs, HRAs, COBRA and direct billing, and compliance administration. WEX Inc. also serves as an IRS-designated non-bank custodian, while WEX Bank provides HSA depository services.
The CODM uses segment adjusted operating income to evaluate the financial performance of each segment and make decisions regarding the allocation of capital and resources to each segment. The CODM also uses variance analysis of segment adjusted operating income on a recurring basis to assess the performance of the segment against forecast, prior periods and the annual budget. We do not allocate assets to our operating segments as we do not use assets to assess our segment performance.
Segment revenues, expenses and adjusted operating income
Segment adjusted operating income, as reported in the following tables, excludes unallocated corporate expenses, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, debt restructuring costs, stock-based compensation, other costs and certain non-recurring or non-cash operating charges that are not core to our operations, as applicable depending on the period presented. Accordingly, certain significant expenses included below have been marked as “adjusted”, as they do not agree with similarly named expense totals appearing elsewhere within this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, due to these exclusions.

18. Supplementary Regulatory Capital Disclosure
The Company’s subsidiary, WEX Bank, is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FDIC and the UDFI. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, WEX Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of WEX Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items. WEX Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could limit business activities and have a material effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require WEX Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios as defined in the regulations. The most recent FDIC exam report categorized WEX Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events subsequent to that examination report that management believes have changed WEX Bank’s capital rating.
The following table presents WEX Bank’s actual and regulatory minimum capital amounts and ratios:

(1)Lower domestic fuel prices compared to the prior year decreased revenue by $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
(2)Total volume and payment processing $ of fuel decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period in the prior year due primarily to lower domestic fuel prices.
(3)Our net payment processing rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was flat year-over-year.
Total Mobility revenue decreased $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period in the prior year, driven primarily by lower average domestic fuel prices, offset in part by an increase in finance fee revenue. Finance fee revenue, which is comprised of the following components, is discussed below.
Three Months Ended March 31, Increase (Decrease)
(in millions) 2025 2024 Amount %
Finance income $ 63.7  $ 60.4  $ 3.3  %
Factoring fee revenue 11.5  9.6  1.9  20  %
Finance fee revenue $ 75.2  $ 70.0  $ 5.2  %
Finance income primarily consists of late fees charged for receivables not paid within the terms of the customer agreement based upon the outstanding customer receivable balance, and to a lesser degree by finance charges earned on revolving portfolio balances. Late fee revenue is earned when a customer’s receivable balance becomes delinquent and is calculated using the greater of a minimum charge or a stated late fee rate multiplied by the outstanding balance that is subject to a late fee charge. Changes in the absolute amount of such outstanding balances can generally be attributed to: (i) changes in fuel prices; (ii) customer specific transaction volume; and (iii) customer specific delinquencies. Late fee revenue can also be impacted by: (i) changes in late fee rates and (ii) increases or decreases in customer overdue balances.
Factoring fee revenue is comprised primarily of fees calculated at a negotiated percentage of the receivable balance that we purchase.
35

Both finance income and factoring fee revenue remained relatively consistent with that of the same period in the prior year. Within finance income, the impact of pricing initiatives, which resulted in higher contractual late fee rates charged, were partly offset by a decline in instances of late fees and a decline in fuel prices year-over-year.
Concessions to certain customers experiencing financial difficulties may be granted and are limited to extending the time to pay, placing a customer on a payment plan or granting waivers of late fees. There were no material concessions granted to customers experiencing financial difficulties during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures” later in this Item 2 for a reconciliation of operating income to total segment adjusted operating income. See also Part I – Item 1 – Note 17, Segment Information, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our segment determination.
(2)Segment adjusted operating income margin is calculated by dividing segment adjusted operating income by segment revenue. Such margin increased marginally during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period in the prior year due primarily to the reduction in credit loss provision, as further discussed below.
Cost of services
Provision for credit losses, which includes estimates for both credit and fraud losses, decreased $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period in the prior year driven primarily by the tighter credit policies put in place during 2023 and 2024 to reduce losses. We generally measure our loss performance by calculating fuel-related losses as a percentage of total fuel expenditures on payment processing transactions. This metric for provision for credit losses was 11.5 basis points of fuel expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, provision for credit losses was 15.3 basis points of fuel expenditures.
Depreciation and amortization increased $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the prior year comparable period, due in part to increased capital expenditures for new product development in support of growth.

(2)Segment adjusted operating income margin is calculated by dividing segment adjusted operating income by segment revenue. Revenue earned on HSA assets is highly accretive to earnings and is the primary driver of the increase in segment adjusted operating income margin for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the prior year comparable period.
Cost of services
Service fees increased by $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared with the same period in the prior year, primarily resulting from higher merchant and other related fees.
Other operating expenses
General and administrative expense decreased $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period in the prior year, due in part to a reduction of Ascensus Acquisition integration costs and in part to a change in estimated attainment of performance-based employee stock-based compensation.

38

Total Corporate Payments revenue decreased $19.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a second quarter 2024 contract renegotiation for a large travel customer. This contract renegotiation was the primary cause of the decline in purchase volume for the same period, as the customer has transitioned to a new operating model. To a lesser extent, the decrease in first quarter revenues year-over-year was due to changes in the timing of customer purchase volumes between calendar quarters and a reduction in interest revenue earned on restricted cash balances, primarily as a result of a decline in average balances as a result of the lower purchase volumes.
Concessions to certain customers experiencing financial difficulties may be granted and are limited to extending the time to pay, placing a customer on a payment plan or granting waivers of late fees. There were no material concessions granted to customers during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

See also Part I – Item 1 – Note 17, Segment Information, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our segment determination.
(2)Segment adjusted operating income margin is calculated by dividing segment adjusted operating income by segment revenue. See below for an explanation of changes to our year over year segment adjusted operating margin.
As a result of owning all of our technology and issuing capabilities, our Corporate Payments segment has a highly scalable and relatively fixed cost base resulting in largely comparable expenses year to year. As a result, changes in revenue similarly impact operating income, segment adjusted operating income and segment adjusted operating income margin. Instances in which our expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 did not remain comparable to those of the comparable 2024 period are described hereafter.
Sales and marketing expense increased $3.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the same period of the prior year due in part to an increase in partner commissions and employee and other costs targeted at driving growth.

Unallocated corporate expenses
Unallocated corporate expenses represent the portion of expenses relating to general corporate functions, including acquisition and divestiture expenses, certain finance, legal, information technology, human resources, administrative and executive expenses, and other expenses not directly attributable to a reportable segment.
The following table compares line items within operating income for unallocated corporate expenses:
  Three Months Ended March 31, Increase (Decrease)

Other operating expenses
General and administrative $ 25.5  $ 32.3  $ (6.8) (21) %
Depreciation and amortization $ 0.4  $ 0.4  $ —  NM
NM - Not meaningful
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, unallocated corporate expenses decreased $6.8 million as compared to the same period of the prior year due primarily to a change in estimated attainment of performance-based employee stock-based compensation.
Non-operating income and expense
The following table reflects comparative results for certain amounts excluded from operating income:
  Three Months Ended March 31, Absolute Dollar Change Effect of Change on Net Income
(in millions) 2025 2024
Financing interest expense, net of financial instruments $ (53.0) $ (60.3) $ 7.3  Increase
Change in fair value of contingent consideration $ (0.8) $ (1.7) $ 0.9  Increase
Net foreign currency loss $ (3.1) $ (12.5) $ 9.4  Increase
Income tax provision $ 28.9  $ 24.2  $ 4.7  Reduction
The decrease in financing interest expense, net of financial instruments during the three months ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year, is primarily due to lower interest rates, offset in part by higher average debt balances.
Our foreign currency exchange exposure is primarily related to the remeasurement of our cash, receivable and payable balances, including intercompany transactions that are denominated in both U.S. dollar and foreign currencies. The higher losses incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2024 resulted from the weakening of certain foreign currencies in which we transact relative to the U.S. dollar, including the euro, and Australian and Canadian dollars. Losses incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2025 were significantly lower than those of the comparable prior year period due to a March 2025 strengthening of many foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, including the euro, Australian dollar and British pound sterling.
The increase in income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the prior year comparable period is due primarily to an increase in the Company’s pre-tax book income, coupled with a tax shortfall arising from stock-based compensation in the current year. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was 28.8 percent, compared to 26.9 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2024. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 14, Income Taxes, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the drivers behind our effective tax rates.

Non–GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures
Total Segment Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Net Income
In addition to evaluating the Company’s performance on a GAAP basis, Company management uses particular non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, to evaluate our overall operating performance, including comparison across periods and with competitors. Our management team believes these non-GAAP measures are integral to our reporting and planning processes and uses them to assess operating performance because they generally exclude financial results that are outside the normal course of our business operations or management’s control. These measures are also used to allocate resources among our operating segments and for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes for both short- and long-term operating plans.
Total segment adjusted operating income excludes unallocated corporate expenses, acquisition-related intangible amortization, other acquisition and divestiture related items, debt restructuring costs, stock-based compensation, other costs and certain non-recurring or non-cash operating charges that are not core to our operations, as applicable depending on the period presented.
Adjusted net income, which similarly excludes the impact of all items excluded in total segment adjusted operating income except unallocated corporate expenses, further excludes unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments, net foreign currency gains and losses, debt issuance cost amortization, tax related items, and certain other non-operating items, as applicable depending on the period presented.
For the periods presented herein, the following items have been excluded in determining one or more non-GAAP measures for the following reasons:
•Exclusion of the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments, including interest rate swap agreements and investment securities, helps management identify and assess trends in the Company’s underlying business that might otherwise be obscured due to quarterly non-cash earnings fluctuations associated with these financial instruments. Additionally, the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future periods difficult to evaluate;
•Net foreign currency gains and losses primarily result from the remeasurement to functional currency of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, certain intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies and any gain or loss on foreign currency economic hedges relating to these items. The exclusion of these items helps management compare changes in operating results between periods that might otherwise be obscured due to currency fluctuations;
•The change in fair value of contingent consideration, which is related to the acquisition of certain contractual rights to serve as custodian or sub-custodian to HSAs, is dependent upon changes in future interest rate assumptions and has no significant impact on the ongoing operations of the Company. Additionally, the non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments on financial instruments are difficult to forecast accurately, making comparisons across historical and future periods difficult to evaluate;
•The Company considers certain acquisition-related costs, including certain financing costs, investment banking fees, warranty and indemnity insurance, certain integration-related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles, as well as gains and losses from divestitures to be unpredictable, dependent on factors that may be outside of our control and unrelated to the continuing operations of the acquired or divested business or the Company. In addition, the size and complexity of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition-related costs, may not be indicative of such future costs. The Company believes that excluding acquisition-related costs and gains or losses on divestitures facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company’s historical operating results and to other companies in our industry;
•Stock-based compensation is different from other forms of compensation as it is a non-cash expense. For example, a cash salary generally has a fixed and unvarying cash cost. In contrast, the expense associated with an equity-based award is generally unrelated to the amount of cash ultimately received by the employee, and the cost to the Company is based on a stock-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time;
•Other costs are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. This also includes non-recurring professional service costs, costs related to certain identified initiatives, including restructuring and technology initiatives, to further streamline the business, improve the Company’s efficiency, create synergies and globalize the Company’s operations, all with an objective to improve scale and efficiency and increase profitability going forward.
41

•Impairment charges represent non-cash asset write-offs, which do not reflect recurring costs that would be relevant to the Company’s continuing operations. The Company believes that excluding these nonrecurring expenses facilitates the comparison of our financial results to the Company’s historical operating results and to other companies in its industry;
•Debt restructuring and debt issuance cost amortization are unrelated to the continuing operations of the Company. Debt restructuring costs are not consistently occurring and do not reflect expected future operating expense, nor do they provide insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. In addition, since debt issuance cost amortization is dependent upon the financing method, which can vary widely company to company, we believe that excluding these costs helps to facilitate comparison to historical results as well as to other companies within our industry;
•The tax related items are the difference between the Company’s GAAP tax provision and a non-GAAP tax provision. The Company utilizes a fixed annual projected long-term non-GAAP tax rate in order to provide better consistency across reporting periods. To determine this long-term projected tax rate, the Company performs a pro forma tax provision based upon the Company’s projected adjusted net income before taxes. The fixed annual projected long-term non-GAAP tax rate could be subject to change in future periods for a variety of reasons, including the rapidly evolving global tax environment, significant changes in our geographic earnings mix including due to acquisition activity, or other changes to our strategy or business operations; and
•The Company does not allocate certain corporate expenses to our operating segments, as these items are centrally controlled and are not directly attributable to any reportable segment.
Total segment adjusted operating income and adjusted net income may be useful to investors as a means of evaluating our performance. However, because total segment adjusted operating income and adjusted net income are non-GAAP measures, they should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Total segment adjusted operating income and adjusted net income as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow
Adjusted free cash flow has historically been calculated as cash flows from operating activities adjusted for net purchases of current investment securities, capital expenditures, net Funding Activity, and certain other adjustments. Such calculation has historically been based on the principle that the net activity in accounts receivable, accounts payable, and investment of HSA deposits would be offset by WEX Bank Funding Activity, however, due to the nature of WEX Bank cash balances, they may be increased or decreased for reasons other than matching operating activity. As a result, beginning with the third quarter of 2024, adjusted free cash flow also includes an adjustment to reflect the change in WEX Bank cash balances and the applicable prior periods have similarly been adjusted to conform to the current presentation.
Although non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, WEX believes that adjusted free cash flow is a useful measure for investors to further evaluate our results of operations because (i) adjusted free cash flow indicates the level of cash generated by the operations of the business, which excludes consideration paid on acquisitions, after appropriate reinvestment for recurring investments in property, equipment and capitalized software that are required to operate the business; (ii) net Funding Activity includes fluctuations in deposits and other borrowings primarily used as part of our accounts receivable funding strategy; (iii) purchases of current investment securities are made as a result of deposits gathered operationally; and (iv) WEX Bank cash balances may be increased or decreased for reasons other than matching operating activity. However, because adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure, it should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, operating cash flow as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted free cash flow as used by WEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We fund our business operations primarily via cash on hand, cash generated from operations, the issuance of deposits and other borrowings primarily used as part of our accounts receivable funding strategy, and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we completed a private offering of $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.500% senior unsecured notes due in March 2033 (the “Senior Notes”) and entered into an amendment to our Credit Agreement which, among other things, established an incremental tranche of senior secured tranche B term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $450.0 million, both of which were used to (i) fund the Company’s Tender Offer, (ii) repay $250.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, and (iii) pay related fees and expenses, with any amounts remaining thereafter to be used for general corporate purposes. As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $610.3 million, including Corporate Cash of $162.6 million, and remaining borrowing availability of $606.6 million under the Revolving Credit Facility along with access to various sources of funds, including uncommitted federal funds lines of credit from other banks.
Our short-term cash requirements consist primarily of funding the working capital needs of our business, current principal and interest payments on the credit facilities under our Credit Agreement, and payments on maturities of deposits and other borrowings used as part of our accounts receivable funding strategy. Our long-term cash requirements consist primarily of amounts owed under our Credit Agreement and any other long-term debt outstanding and various facilities lease agreements.
We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, cash generating capabilities, financial condition and operations, and access to available funding sources will be adequate to fund our cash needs for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. The table below includes a more comprehensive list of frequent sources and uses of cash:
Sources of cash Uses of cash
•Cash generated from operations
•Borrowings and availability on our Credit Agreement and other long-term borrowings1
•Deposits2
•Accounts receivable securitization and factoring arrangements3
•Participation debt4
•Borrowed federal funds and other short-term borrowings5
•Payments on our Credit Agreement
•Payments on maturities of deposits
•Payments on borrowed federal funds and other short-term borrowings
•Working capital needs of the business
•Operating lease obligations
•Capital expenditures
•Repurchases of common stock6
•Merger and acquisition activity
(1)As of March 31, 2025 the Company had outstanding term loan principal borrowings of $2,689.9 million, borrowings of $954.3 million on the Revolving Credit Facility, letters of credit of $39.1 million drawn against the Revolving Credit Facility and $550.0 million of outstanding Senior Notes principal. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 10, Financing and Other Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our Credit Agreement and Senior Notes.
(2)WEX Bank’s regulatory status enables it to raise capital to fund the Company’s working capital requirements by issuing deposits, subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FDIC and the UDFI. Additionally, WEX Bank holds deposits for the benefit of WEX Inc.’s HSA customers subject to the terms of a deposit agreement. As of March 31, 2025, we had $4,646.8 million in total deposits. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 9, Deposits, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our deposits.
(3)The Company utilizes securitized debt agreements to finance a portion of our receivables, lower our cost of borrowing and more efficiently utilize capital. The Company had $95.0 million of securitized debt under these facilities as of March 31, 2025. We also utilize off-balance sheet factoring and securitization arrangements to sell certain of our accounts receivable to unrelated third-party financial institutions in order to accelerate the collection of the Company’s cash and reduce internal costs. Available capacity is generally dependent on the level of our trade accounts receivable eligible to be sold and the financial institutions’ willingness to purchase such receivables. However, the Company is not dependent on them to maintain its liquidity and capital resources. See Part I – Item 1 – Notes 10, Financing and Other Debt and 11, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information about the Company’s securitized debt and off-balance sheet arrangements.
(4)From time to time, WEX Bank enters into participation agreements with third-party banks to fund customers’ balances that exceed WEX Bank’s lending limit to individual customers. There was $46.5 million borrowed against these participation agreements as of March 31, 2025.
(5)WEX Bank borrows from short-term uncommitted federal funds lines of credit from time to time to supplement the financing of the Company’s accounts receivable. There were $110.0 million of outstanding borrowings under these lines of credit as of March 31, 2025. The Bank is also a member of the FHLB of Des Moines, which provides them collateralized short-term funding. As of March 31, 2025, WEX Bank had $1,180.0 million of advances outstanding, secured by $1.3 billion in fair value of investment securities. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 10, Financing and Other Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding these facilities.
44

(6)Under share repurchase programs, which may be authorized by our board of directors from time to time, the Company may repurchase up to specified dollar values of shares of its common stock through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades, tender offers or accelerated share repurchase transactions or by any combination of such methods approved by our board of directors. See Part I - Item 1 - Note 6, Repurchases of Common Stock, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding our share repurchases.
Credit Agreement
Financial Covenants
The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants that, subject to certain customary exceptions, limit the Company and its subsidiaries’ (including, in certain limited circumstances, WEX Bank and the Company’s other regulated subsidiaries) ability to, among other things (i) incur additional debt, (ii) pay dividends or make other distributions on, redeem or repurchase capital stock, or make investments or other restricted payments, (iii) enter into transactions with affiliates, (iv) dispose of assets or issue stock of restricted subsidiaries or regulated subsidiaries, (v) create liens on assets, or (vi) effect a consolidation or merger or sell all, or substantially all, of the Company’s assets. The Credit Agreement also contains customary financial maintenance covenants, including that the Company maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter the following financial ratios:
•a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of no less than 3.00 to 1.00; and
•a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of no more than 4.75 to 1.00.
We were in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of March 31, 2025.
In connection with the Company’s closing of the Senior Notes offering of $550.0 million and incremental Term Loan B-3 facility on March 6, 2025, the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio level applicable to the Company’s unlimited restricted payments covenant was amended from 2.75 to 1.00 to 3.50 to 1.00 under the Credit Agreement.
Redemption provisions
The Incremental Term B-3 Loans may be voluntarily prepaid, subject to a 1.00 percent prepayment premium within six months of the closing date of the Seventh Amendment.
Senior Notes
Financial Covenants
The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ (other than the Bank Regulated Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture)) ability to (i) create or permit to exist certain liens on any of their property or assets securing any indebtedness, without securing the Senior Notes equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured indebtedness and (ii) enter into sale leaseback transactions. The Company and the Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture) are also limited in their ability to consolidate with or into, or convey, lease or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of their assets on a consolidated basis to any person, subject to certain exceptions.
We were in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of March 31, 2025.
Redemption provisions
Prior to March 15, 2028, the Company may, at its option, (i) redeem all or a portion of the Senior Notes at the applicable make-whole price set forth in the Indenture, or (ii) redeem up to 40 percent in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes in an amount not greater than the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 106.500 percent of the principal amount of Senior Notes to be redeemed, so long as at least 50 percent of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes (originally issued) remains outstanding immediately afterwards. The Company has the option to redeem all or a portion of the Senior Notes at any time on or after March 15, 2028, at specified redemption prices ranging from 100.000 percent to 103.250 percent depending on the date of redemption. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Indenture), the Company is required to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at 101 percent of the principal amount of such Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

Additional Sources of Cash Available
WEX Bank has the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Reserve Bank Discount Window. Borrowing limits fluctuate based on pledged assets, and as of March 31, 2025, the Company could borrow up to a maximum amount of $144.8 million. WEX Bank had no borrowings outstanding on this line of credit as of March 31, 2025. Also, under an uncommitted borrowing facility, WEX Australia can be advanced up to A$21.3 million from Bank of America in short-term funds. The Company had no borrowings outstanding on this facility as of March 31, 2025. See Part I – Item 1 – Note 10, Financing and Other Debt, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding these borrowing arrangements.
Cash Flows
The table below summarizes our cash activities and adjusted free cash flow:
Three Months Ended March 31,
(in millions) 2025 2024
Net cash provided by (used for)

   Operating activities $ (481.6) $ (153.3)
   Investing activities $ (23.5) $ (317.8)
   Financing activities $ 318.4  $ 354.1 
Non-GAAP financial measure:
   Adjusted free cash flow1
$ 16.2  $ (9.2)
(1)Adjusted free cash flow has historically been calculated as cash flows from operating activities adjusted for net purchases of current investment securities, capital expenditures, net Funding Activity, and certain other adjustments. Such calculation has historically been based on the principle that the net activity in accounts receivable, accounts payable, and investment of HSA deposits would be offset by WEX Bank Funding Activity, however, due to the nature of WEX Bank cash balances, they may be increased or decreased for reasons other than matching operating activity. As a result, beginning with the third quarter of 2024, adjusted free cash flow also includes an adjustment to reflect the change in WEX Bank cash balances and the applicable prior periods have similarly been adjusted to conform to the current presentation. For an updated definition of adjusted free cash flow and a reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities, the most closely comparable GAAP measure, and the reasons why we believe this is an important financial measure, please refer to the section titled Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures.
Operating Activities
We fund a customer’s entire receivable in the majority of our Mobility and Corporate Payment processing transactions, while the revenue generated by these transactions is only a small percentage of that amount. Consequently, cash flows from operations are impacted significantly by increases or decreases in fuel prices and purchase volumes, driving changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, which directly impact our capital resource requirements.
Cash used for operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $328.3 million as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a greater increase in accounts receivable balances during the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024. This increase was due in part to the March 2025 purchase of a portfolio of factoring accounts receivable and in part to an increase in first quarter 2025 domestic travel spend volumes compared to those of the fourth quarter of 2024.
Investing Activities
Investing cash flows generally consist of capital expenditures, cash used for acquisitions and the investment of eligible custodial cash assets.
Cash used for investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased $294.3 million as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily resulting from first quarter 2024 HSA deposit transfers to WEX Bank, which were invested in available-for-sale debt securities. There were no HSA deposit transfers to WEX Bank during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Financing Activities
Financing cash flows generally consist of the issuance and repayment of debt and deposits, changes in restricted cash payable and repurchases of our common stock. Repurchases of our common stock may vary based on management’s evaluation of market and economic conditions and other factors.
46

Net cash from financing activities during 2025 decreased $35.7 million as compared to the prior year primarily due to a reduction in our restricted cash payable resulting from a shift in customer usage of our prepaid business model, offset in part by an increase in Funding Activity. Share repurchases increased during the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024, due to the completion of the Tender Offer. We funded the Tender Offer with $450.0 million of gross borrowings from a new Term Loan B-3 facility under our Credit Agreement and through gross proceeds of $550.0 million from a new offering of Senior Notes. The excess of proceeds received through these borrowings over the amounts paid to repurchase shares under the Tender Offer were used to repay borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility. As a result, these transactions collectively had little net impact on cash flows from financing activities.
As of March 31, 2025, there was $173.9 million worth of WEX common stock available to be purchased pursuant to the repurchase plan authorization.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow
Although non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, WEX believes that adjusted free cash flow is a useful measure for investors to further evaluate our results of operations, as further described in the section of this document titled Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures.
Adjusted free cash flow during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was generally consistent with the prior year comparable period.
Other Commitments, Contingencies and Contractual Obligations
With the exception of the new borrowings discussed earlier in this Liquidity and Capital Resources section, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations from the information previously provided in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Regulatory Matters
WEX Bank is subject to a consent order issued by the FDIC on September 20, 2023 (the “2023 Order”), which requires WEX Bank to make certain improvements, which include corrections of certain issues identified in the 2023 Order and general enhancements to WEX Bank’s compliance management program. Customer impact and any resulting harm from the violations detailed in the 2023 Order have been identified and steps have been taken to remediate any such impact and harm. On December 17, 2024, the FDIC assessed a civil money penalty of $650 thousand to WEX Bank, which has been paid in full, in relation to the 2023 Order. The terms of the 2023 Order will remain in effect and be enforceable until they are modified, terminated, suspended or set aside by the FDIC. The civil money penalty and the matters identified in the 2023 Order have not had, nor are they expected to have, a material effect on WEX Bank’s operations or the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Critical Accounting Estimates
We have no material changes to our critical accounting estimates discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
See Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10–Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As of March 31, 2025, we have no material changes to the market risk disclosures in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of WEX Inc., evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025. “Disclosure controls and procedures” are controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of WEX Inc. concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings, claims and regulatory matters in the ordinary course of business, including but not limited to: commercial disputes; contract disputes; employment litigation; disputes regarding our intellectual property rights; alleged infringement or misappropriation by us of intellectual property rights of others; and, matters relating to our compliance with applicable laws and regulations. As of the date of this filing, we are not involved in any material legal proceedings and there are no material proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risk factors disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 is qualified by the information that is described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the additional risk factor set forth below. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2024 are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
We currently have a substantial amount of indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness, which could increase our leverage, affect our flexibility in managing our business and could materially and adversely affect our ability to meet our debt service obligations.
At March 31, 2025, we had approximately $5.6 billion of debt outstanding, net of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount. Such amount outstanding includes obligations under (i) our Credit Agreement, which consists of a tranche A-1 term loan facility, a tranche B-2 term loan facility, a tranche B-3 term loan facility and a secured revolving credit facility, (ii) the Senior Notes and (iii) securitized and participation debt, borrowed federal funds and advances from the FHLB.
48

In addition to our outstanding debt, as of March 31, 2025, we had outstanding letters of credit issued under our Credit Agreement. We have additional indebtedness in the form of deposits held by WEX Bank and other liabilities outstanding.
Our substantial indebtedness currently outstanding, or as may become outstanding if we incur additional indebtedness, and the terms and conditions of such indebtedness, could, among other things:
•lead to difficulty in our ability to generate enough cash flow to satisfy our indebtedness obligations under our credit facilities, and if we fail to satisfy these indebtedness obligations, an event of default could result;
•require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow to repaying our indebtedness, thus reducing the amount of funds available to execute on our corporate strategy, to fund working capital or capital expenditures or for other general corporate purposes;
•increase our leverage ratio and limit our ability to borrow additional funds necessary for working capital, capital expenditures or other general corporate purposes;
•increase our vulnerability to adverse general economic or industry conditions;
•place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors that have less indebtedness or better access to capital, by, for example, limiting our ability to enter into new markets, upgrade our assets or pursue acquisitions or other business opportunities; and
•limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to changes in, our business.
We may also incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. In addition to available borrowing capacity remaining under the Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2025, we are also permitted under our credit facilities and the Indenture to incur additional indebtedness, subject to specified limitations, including compliance with covenants contained in our Credit Agreement. If new debt is incurred under any circumstance, the associated risks faced by the Company, such as those set forth above, could intensify.
Moreover, if we are unable to meet any of our principal, interest, or other payment or settlement obligations under any of our debt agreements, we could be forced to restructure or refinance our obligations, seek additional equity financing or sell assets, which we may not be able to do on satisfactory terms or at all. Our default on any of our debt agreements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that we meet certain financial covenants, including a Consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest charge coverage ratio and a consolidated leverage ratio, as described in Part I – Item 2 – Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Credit Agreement also contains various affirmative and negative covenants that, subject to certain customary exceptions, restrict our ability to, among other things, create liens over our property, incur additional indebtedness, enter into sale and lease-back transactions, make loans, advances or other investments, make non-ordinary course asset sales, declare or pay dividends or make other distributions with respect to equity interests, change the nature of our business, enter into certain agreements which restrict our ability to pay dividends or other distributions or create liens on our property, transact business with affiliates and/or merge or consolidate with any other person.
Our ability to comply with these provisions may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial, and industry conditions. Failure to comply with the financial covenants or any other non-financial or restrictive covenants in our Credit Agreement, for any reason, could create a default. Upon a default, our lenders could accelerate the indebtedness under the facilities (except only the requisite lenders under the revolving credit facility and the tranche A term loan facility may accelerate the revolving credit facility due to a breach of the financial covenants), foreclose against their collateral or seek other remedies, which could trigger a default under the Indenture and could jeopardize our ability to continue our current operations. The Indenture also contains limited covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability and our subsidiaries’ ability, subject to certain exceptions, to create certain liens and enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions. These covenants do not apply to WEX Bank and its subsidiaries. The Indenture also contains customary events of default that if breached could allow the requisite noteholders to accelerate the maturity of the Senior Notes, and to exercise their rights and remedies under the Indenture, and could also trigger a cross-default under the Credit Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual convents hereinafter set forth, the Company and the Grantee agree as follows: 1) Award. Subject to (i) the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Grantee’s agreement to comply with the obligations set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 below) and (ii) the Grantee’s acknowledgement of this Agreement and the Memorandum, the Company hereby grants the Grantee the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Memorandum (the “RSUs”). 2) Vesting.

If the Grantee fails to satisfy the Release Requirement, outstanding RSUs shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration and the Board may require the Grantee to immediately remit to the Company any shares of Common Stock (or the fair market value thereof (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) to the extent the Grantee no longer holds the shares of Common Stock) issued in respect of the RSUs as a result of Section 3(b)(i), and the Company shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing its rights pursuant to this Section 3(b)(i). ii) Notwithstanding Section 3(b)(i), if (x) the Company receives a legal opinion stating that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in the Grantee’s jurisdiction that likely would result in Section 3(b)(i) being deemed unlawful or in violation of Section 409A, or (y) any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 are held by any court or governmental authority (or otherwise deemed) to be void, unlawful or unenforceable with respect to the Grantee, then Section 3(b)(i) shall be void ab initio and the RSUs shall be subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement. If the Grantee has already received shares of Common Stock as a result of Section 3(b)(i), the Board may require the Grantee to immediately remit to the Company any shares of Common Stock (or the fair market value thereof (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) to the extent the Grantee no longer holds the shares of Common Stock), and the Company shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing its rights pursuant to this Section 3(b)(ii). iii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means a termination of the Grantee’s Service following Notice (as defined below), other than a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause or where grounds for a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause exist; provided that at the time of such Notice the Grantee has satisfied one (or more) of the following: (x) attainment of at least fifty-five (55) years of age and ten (10) full years of continuous Service, (y) attainment of at least sixty (60) years of age and five (5) full years of continuous Service or (z) attainment of at least sixty-five (65) years of age and two (2) full years of continuous Service, in each case, as determined by the Company’s HRIS. To invoke a termination due to Retirement, the Grantee must provide at least six (6) months prior written notice to the Grantee’s direct manager at the applicable member of the Company Group (the “Notice”) and the termination date must be at least six (6) months following the Date of Grant. c) Change in Control.


 
3 Error! Unknown document property name. i) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control in which the acquirer or the surviving entity does not assume or substitute the RSUs, the RSUs shall immediately vest and shall be settled on the schedule set forth in Section 2 or Section 3(a), as applicable (i.e., within thirty (30) days following each of the first three (3) anniversaries of the Date of Grant or, if earlier, within thirty (30) days following the Grantee’s death); provided, however, that, in accordance with Section 10(c)(2) of the Plan, if such Change in Control would constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A and the Grantee’s Service is terminated by a member of the Company Group (including any acquirer or successor) without Cause or by the Grantee for Good Reason, in each case, following such Change in Control but prior to the first anniversary thereof, then the RSUs shall be settled within thirty (30) days following such termination of Service. ii) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control in which the acquirer or the surviving entity assumes or substitutes the RSUs, the RSUs shall both vest and be settled in accordance with Section 2 and Section 3 (as applicable); provided, however, that, in accordance with Section 10(c)(2) of the Plan, if the Grantee’s Service is terminated by a member of the Company Group (including any acquirer or successor) without Cause or by the Grantee for Good Reason, in each case, following such Change in Control but prior to the first anniversary thereof then the RSUs shall immediately vest and shall be settled (x) on the schedule set forth in Section 2 or Section 3(a), as applicable (i.e., within thirty (30) days following each of first three (3) anniversaries of the Date of Grant or, if earlier, within thirty (30) days following the Grantee’s death), if such Change in Control would not constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A or (y) within thirty (30) days following such termination of Service if such Change in Control would constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A. d) Other Terminations. Except as otherwise provided under Section 3(a), Section 3(b)(i) and Section 3(c) of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, any RSUs that have not vested as of such termination shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration (unless the Board, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise). A termination of Service shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Grantee ceases to perform active employment duties for the Company Group, regardless of any notice period, salary continuation period or other severance period. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, this Agreement or any other agreement between any member of the Company Group and the Grantee to the contrary, the Grantee shall not be entitled to any compensation for the loss of any rights under the Plan or this Agreement as a result of the termination of the Grantee’s Service. 4) Settlement. Upon settlement of the RSUs, the Company shall deliver to the Grantee, for each vested RSU, one (1) share of Common Stock, subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Board. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered and any fractions shall be rounded down. 5) Confidential and Proprietary Information.


 
4 Error! Unknown document property name. a) The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group and in line with that position has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes but is not limited to all the Company Group’s trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s Service. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company Group, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company Group; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than any member of the Company Group, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without any obligations of confidentiality attaching to such disclosure; (4) is developed by the Grantee entirely on the Grantee’s own time without the Company Group’s equipment, supplies or facilities and does not relate at the time of conception to the Company Group’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development; or (5) is lawfully acquired by a non-supervisory employee about wages, hours or other terms and conditions of employment when used for purposes protected by §7 of the National Labor Relations Act such as discussing wages, benefits or terms and conditions of employment, or other legally protected concerted activity for mutual aid or protection of laborers. Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. b) The provisions in this Agreement do not prohibit the Grantee from communicating with any governmental authority or making a report in good faith and with a reasonable belief of any violations of law or regulation to a governmental authority, or from testifying or participating in a legal proceeding relating to such violations, including providing documents or information or making other disclosures protected or required by any whistleblower law or regulation to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Department of Labor, or any other appropriate government authority. This may include disclosure of trade secret or confidential information within the limitations permitted by the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA). The Grantee understands, agrees and acknowledges that under the DTSA, (1) no individual will be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade

Unknown document property name. secret (as defined in the Economic Espionage Act) that: (A) is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public; and (2) an individual who pursues a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of the law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except as permitted by court order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee expressly agrees to honor the confidentiality obligations in this Agreement and will only share Confidential and Proprietary Information with the Grantee’s attorney or with the government agency or entity in accordance with this Section 5. Further, nothing in this Agreement limits or affects Grantee’s right to disclose or discuss sexual harassment or sexual assault disputes. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to permit or condone unlawful conduct, including but not limited to the theft or misappropriation of Company Group’s property, trade secrets or information. 6) Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date (in each case, except with respect to Section 5(f), which restrictions apply in perpetuity), the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company Group, whether as an agent or otherwise: a) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact; b) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information; c) Utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group; d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group to leave the employ of any member of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action

Unknown document property name. to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any employee of a member of the Company Group to leave the employ of such member of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than a member of the Company Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by a member of the Company Group within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; e) Become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Section 6(e), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company Group simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section 6 will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section 6 shall operate in any country in which the Company Group conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by a member of the Company Group; and/or f) Subject to Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing

Unknown document property name. by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company Group, to (i) any competitor of the Company Group, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company Group, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of any member of the Company Group, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against any member of the Company Group, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company Group (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company Group, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of any member of the Company Group and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of any member of the Company Group; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company Group (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against any member of the Company Group, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against any member of the Company Group, (iii) proposing to acquire any member of the Company Group or any of its assets or (iv) making any other demands of any member of the Company Group. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company Group with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company Group has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of the employees of any member of the Company Group, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company Group that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company Group would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company Group shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to


 
8 Error! Unknown document property name. maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company Group, or until the Company Group states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company Group, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company Group no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Section 5 and Section 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company Group may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company Group is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5 and Section 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company Group. 7) Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Grantee shall not be permitted to transfer or assign this Agreement or the RSUs, except as expressly permitted under the Plan. The Company may assign this Agreement to an entity controlled by or under common control with the Company or to an entity


 
9 Error! Unknown document property name. that acquires all or substantially all of the business, equity or assets of the Company. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company Group and its successors and assigns and upon the Grantee and the Grantee’s heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person other than the Company Group and the Grantee, and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. 8) Withholding. As a condition to the granting of the RSUs, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for the payment of income and employment taxes (and any other taxes) payable in connection with the vesting and/or settlement of the RSUs. The Company Group shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold automatically from any payment or shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement, or require the Grantee to remit to the Company Group, the minimum statutory amount to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement (the “Minimum Withholding”) in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion); provided that, except as otherwise provided by the Board, with respect to the withholding of shares of Common Stock, if the Company Group is able to withhold from the shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement such number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) that is greater than the Minimum Withholding without financial accounting implications for the Company or the withholding is in a jurisdiction that does not have a Minimum Withholding, the Company Group shall have the power and the right, including at the Grantee's request, to deduct or withhold automatically from any shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement up to the maximum individual statutory rate of tax (determined by, or in a manner approved by, the Company) to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any taxes that the Company Group is required to withhold in connection with the vesting of the RSUs, the Company Group shall deduct or withhold automatically from any shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement the number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the Minimum Withholding with respect to such taxable event, which retained shares of Common Stock shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on the Grantee’s behalf. 9) No Rights to Continued Service. The granting of the RSUs shall impose no obligation on any member of the Company Group to continue the Service of the Grantee and shall not interfere in any way with the right of any member of the Company Group to terminate such Service. 10) Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action or other matters that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation thereof to the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. 11) Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee, by the Grantee’s


 
10 Error! Unknown document property name. execution hereof, (a) hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware for the purposes of any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof, (b) hereby waive, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such claim or action, any claim that the Grantee is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the Grantee’s property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such proceeding brought in the above-named court is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court and (c) hereby agree not to commence any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof other than before the above-named courts nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such claim or action to any court other than the above-named courts whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise; provided, however, that the Company and the Grantee may seek to enforce a judgment issued by the above-named courts in any proper jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee hereby consent to service of process in any such proceeding, and agree that service of process by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at the Grantee’s address specified pursuant to Section 15 is reasonably calculated to give actual notice. 12) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES AND COVENANTS THAT THE GRANTEE SHALL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE OR ACTION, CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR SUIT (IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE), INQUIRY, PROCEEDING OR INVESTIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE OTHER PARTY HERETO THAT THIS SECTION 12 CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH THEY ARE RELYING AND SHALL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 12 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 13) Compliance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary: a) The Company intends that the RSUs satisfy the requirements of Section 409A. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with that intent, such that there are no adverse tax consequences, interest or penalties under Section 409A as a result of the RSUs. In no event whatsoever will any member of the Company Group or any of their respective directors, officers, agents, attorneys, employees, shareholders, investors, managers, fiduciaries, successors or assigns be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on the Grantee under Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A.


 
11 Error! Unknown document property name. b) A termination of Service shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A upon or following a termination of Service unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “terminate,” “termination of Service” or like terms shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If any payment, compensation or other benefit provided to the Grantee, due to the termination of the Grantee’s employment, is determined, in whole or in part, to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and the Grantee is a specified employee as defined in Section 409A(2)(B)(i) of the Code, no part of such payments shall be paid before the day that is six (6) months plus one (1) day after the date of termination or, if earlier, ten (10) business days following the Grantee’s death (the “New Payment Date”). The aggregate of any payments that otherwise would have been paid to the Grantee during the period between the date of termination and the New Payment Date shall be paid to the Grantee in a lump sum on such New Payment Date. Thereafter, any payments that remain outstanding as of the day immediately following the New Payment Date shall be paid without delay over the time period originally scheduled, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. c) If under this Agreement, an amount is paid in two or more installments, for purposes of Section 409A, each installment shall be treated as a separate payment. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “as soon as practicable following the applicable Vesting Date, but no later than thirty (30) days following such Vesting Date”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. 14) No Guarantees Regarding Tax Treatment. Grantee (or Grantee’s beneficiaries) shall be responsible for all taxes with respect to the RSUs. The Board and the Company make no guarantees regarding the tax treatment of the RSUs. Neither the Board nor the Company has any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any tax under Section 409A of the Code or Section 457A of the Code or otherwise. 15) Notices. Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed given when delivered personally, or when deposited in the regular mail, postage prepaid, addressed, as appropriate, to the Grantee at the last address specified in the Grantee’s employment records (or such other address as the Grantee may designate in writing to the Company), or to the Company, 1 Hancock Street, Portland, ME 04101, Attention: Chief Legal Officer, or such other address as the Company may designate in writing to the Grantee. 16) No Effect on Compensation. The amount of any compensation the Grantee receives pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute includable compensation for purposes of determining the amount of benefits to which the Grantee is entitled to under any other compensation or benefit plan or program of the Company Group, including, without limitation, under any pension or severance benefits plan, except to the extent specifically provided by the terms of any such plan or as otherwise expressly required under applicable law. 17) Failure to Enforce Not a Waiver. The failure of the Company to enforce at any

EXHIBIT A Country and State Specific Provisions This Exhibit A includes special terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted to such Grantee under the Plan if the Grantee resides and/or works in one of the jurisdictions listed below. These terms and conditions are in addition to or, if so indicated, in replacement of the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement. This Exhibit A also includes information regarding Confidential and Proprietary Information, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and certain other issues of which the Grantee should be aware with respect to the Grantee’s receipt of the Restricted Stock Units and participation in the Plan. The information is based on the exchange control, securities and other laws in effect in the respective jurisdictions as of March 2024. However, such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Grantee not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Grantee vests in the Restricted Stock Units, acquires shares (or the cash equivalent) or sells the Common Stock acquired under the Restricted Stock Units. In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Grantee’s particular situation and the Company is not in a position to assure the Grantee of any particular result. Accordingly, the Grantee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Grantee’s jurisdiction may apply to the Grantee’s situation. Finally, if the Grantee is a citizen or resident of a jurisdiction other than the one in which the Grantee is currently residing and/or working, transfers employment and/or residency to another jurisdiction after the Award is granted or is considered a resident of another jurisdiction for local law purposes, the terms and conditions and notifications contained herein may not be applicable to the Grantee. The Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions included herein will apply under these circumstances.

Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5. Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group, and in line with that position has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes but is not limited to all Company Group trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s employment. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information.

Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and for the Restraint Period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise: (a) Contact, provide unsolicited advice to, solicit, attempt to take away business where a customer or client has not made contact of their own free-will, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact within the last 12 months of their employment with the Company; (b) In the Restraint Area, contact, provide unsolicited advice to, solicit, attempt to take away business where a customer or client has not made contact of their own free- will, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee had direct access to and contact with, within the last 12 months of their employment with the Company, as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (c) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group with whom the Grantee had a business relationship and/or dealings to leave the employ of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company Group become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company Group;

(d) In the Restraint Area, become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity) own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section 5(d), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service, and of which the Grantee was aware. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. Furthermore, the restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company; and/or (e) Subject to Section 5, and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the

Unknown document property name. control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) to the extent permitted by law, aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Period” means: (1) Twelve (12) months from the Grantee’s last day of Service, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (2) Nine (9) months from the Grantee’s last day of Service, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (3) Six (6) months from the Grantee’s last day of Service. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Area” means: (1) Australia, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then: (2) Victoria, New South Wales and/or any other state, territory and/or location in which the Company or any other company in the WEX group conducts business during Grantee’s Service and in which the Grantee was involved and/or held relationships with clients of the WEX group within these states, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then; (3) The state where the Grantee was employed. For the purposes of this Section 6, the parties understand and agree that the “Company” means WEX Inc. and any of its “related body corporate” as defined by the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) as amended from time to time. The Company Group have previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will


 
19 Error! Unknown document property name. remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions, rather than the Restrictions contained in this Section 6. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6, the damages to the Company and its subsidiaries would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or legal costs, the Company shall have the right to seek specific performance, an injunction and/or other equitable relief as appropriate in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of an interim injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. Each restrictive covenant in this Section 6 (resulting from any combination of the wording in this Section 6, including the relevant definitions) constitutes a separate restrictive covenant that is severable from the other restrictive covenants. If any one or more provisions of this Section 6 shall for any reason be held to be void, voidable, unenforceable or illegal by a court or tribunal as to the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity or subject, because it goes beyond what is reasonable to protect the Company Group’s business or for any other reason, then that part will be severed and the other restrictive covenants will remain in full force and effect to the greatest extent permitted by law. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee where such engagement would breach the terms of this Agreement. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. The Grantee understands, acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee has been provided with an opportunity to seek independent legal advice before deciding whether or not to enter into this Agreement and that the Grantee has made the decision on the Grantee’s own accord to agree to the restrictive covenants contained within this Section 6 in exchange for the consideration that the Company is providing as outlined herein. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at


 
20 Error! Unknown document property name. one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract. Tax Information: The following provisions replace Section 13 of the Agreement in its entirety: 13. Tax Information. The Plan is a plan to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Ctch) applies (subject to the conditions in that Act). Imposition of Other Requirements: 26) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Securities Law Information: 27) Securities Law Information. The grant of the Award is being made pursuant to Division 1A, Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). If the Grantee offers shares of Company Stock for sale to a person or entity resident in Australia, the offer may be subject to disclosure requirements under Australian law. The Grantee personally should obtain legal advice on applicable disclosure obligations prior to making any such offer. Belgium Award: The reference under Section 1 (Award) to Section 6 should be read as a reference to Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis and Sub-Section 6ter. Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5. Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group, and, in line with that position, has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes, but is not limited to, all Company Group’s trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s

Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company Group, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not disclosed and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company Group; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than any member of the Company Group, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without any obligations of confidentiality attaching to such disclosure; or (4) is developed by the Grantee entirely on the Grantee’s own time without the Company Group’s equipment, supplies or facilities and does not relate at the time of conception to the Company Group’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development. Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6.1 Definitions: 6.1.1 “Restricted Period” means the period commencing on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Grantee’s Service terminates for any reason other than Retirement; (ii) the date when the Grantee commences garden leave; or (iii) in the event of termination of Service due to Retirement, the Vesting Date, and continuing for twelve (12) months thereafter. 6.2 Non-Solicitation and Disclosure.

Non-Competition. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s employment with the Company Group, during any period between Retirement and the final Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period , the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group, whether as an agent or otherwise: become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section (6bis), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s employment with the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards.

24 Error! Unknown document property name. 6bis. Non-Competition. In view of the employer’s international field of activity, after the Grantee has left the employer and even if the Grantee’s seniority would be inferior to six (6) months, except in case of termination of the employment by the Grantee for serious cause, the Grantee shall, during the Grantee’s employment with any member of the Company Group, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period, on the territory specified below, be prohibited from exercising similar activities, either by running a personal enterprise or by being hired or engaged by a competing employer and having thus the opportunity of causing a prejudice to the employer by using for himself/herself or for the profit of a competitor, the Grantee’s knowledge of any practice specific to the employer which the Grantee has acquired on an industrial or commercial level during the Grantee’s employment. The prohibition referred to in this Sub-Section 6bis applies to the territory of Belgium and the Netherlands. The Grantee accepts that this territory is automatically extended to the countries in which the Grantee would also be active in the last thirty-six (36) months prior to the day of termination of the employment. If the non-competition obligation of this Sub-Section 6bis applies, a one off and lump sum indemnity will be paid to the Grantee, unless the employer waives the application of this clause within fifteen (15) days following the termination of the employment. This indemnity will amount to half of the gross salary for the term of the effective application of the non-competition obligation. If the non-competition obligation of this Sub-Section 6bis applies and if the Grantee fails to comply with its provisions, the Grantee will reimburse to the employer the indemnity the Grantee received and, in addition thereto, the Grantee will pay an equivalent amount as damages, without prejudice to the employer’s right to claim any additional damages.

Non-Competition. The Grantee undertakes, during the course of the employment relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months following the end of the employment, not to perform, in Belgium, any activities which are similar to those exercised by the Grantee at the employer, either in the framework of a competing activity for the Grantee's own account, or directly or indirectly for any competitor of the employer.

The non-competition obligation of this article will have no effect in case of termination of the employment either during the first six (6) months of the employment, or, afterwards, by the employer for a reason other than serious cause, or by the Grantee for serious cause. If, notwithstanding the severability provisions in the Agreement, Sub-Section 6bis as set out above would be considered to be null and void, the Company, acting on behalf of the employer, and the Grantee, agree to be bound by the following provision if the Grantee qualifies as a sales representative (the “Belgian Alternative Provision 3”): 6bis. Non-Competition. During the course of the employment relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months following the end of the employment, the Grantee will be prohibited from exercising activities which are similar to the activities the Grantee exercises for the employer, within the working area in which the Grantee carried out the Grantee’s activities, either in the framework of a competing activity for the Grantee's own account, or directly or indirectly for any competitor of the employer. The prohibition set forth in this article will have no effect in case of termination of the employment either during the first six (6) months of the employment, or, afterwards, by the employer for a reason other than serious cause, or by the Grantee for serious cause. In case of breach of this non-competition obligation, the Grantee will have to pay a lump-sum indemnity of three (3) months gross remuneration to the employer, without prejudice to the employer’s right to claim higher damages based on the actually suffered loss. 6ter. Common provisions. The restrictions in Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company Group simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in the foregoing Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled. The restrictions in the foregoing Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in the foregoing Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis shall operate in any country in which the Company Group conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by a member of the Company Group. Existing Restrictions - The Company Group has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of employees of any member of the Company Group, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5, Section 6 or Sub-Section 6bis of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company


 
26 Error! Unknown document property name. Group that is enforceable under applicable law. In case several provisions offer the same level of protection, the most recent one shall prevail. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Section 5, Section 6 or Sub-Section 6bis of this Agreement, the damages to the Company Group would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company Group shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6 or Sub-Section 6bis, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company Group, or until the Company Group states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. Disclosure - The Grantee agrees, during the period of twelve (12) months immediately following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, to disclose to the Company Group, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company Group no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. Communication – During the Grantee’s Service and for a period of at least twelve (12) months thereafter, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Section 5, Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company Group may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Section 5, Section 6, or Sub-Section 6bis of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company Group is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Section 5, Section 6, or Sub-Section 6bis are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Severability - If any one or more provisions of Section 5, Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis or Sub- Section 6ter shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Section 5, Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis or Sub-Section 6ter may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.


 
27 Error! Unknown document property name. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5, Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis or Sub-Section 6ter, upon termination of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company Group. It is explicitly agreed that, except for the paragraphs above on (i) Existing Restrictions, (ii) Disclosure, (iii) Communication and (iv) Severability, the provisions of Sub-Section 6ter do not apply in relation to the Belgian Alternative Provision 1 nor in relation to the Belgian Alternative Provision 2 nor in relation to the Belgian Alternative Provision 3. Withholding: The following provision supplements Section 8 of the Agreement: Section 8 shall be without prejudice to the applicable tax and social security obligations under Belgian law applying to the Company Group. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company Group and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company Group at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's Service. Data Privacy: 26) Data Privacy. (a) The Company Group, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company Group in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company Group’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company Group collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process (es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company Group receives from the Grantee or the employer. (b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company Group will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company Group’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company Group to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the


 
28 Error! Unknown document property name. United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. (c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company Group transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company Group with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company Group may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. (d) International Data Transfers. The Company Group and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company Group to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company Group contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company Group also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. (e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. (f) Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence. For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding the Grantee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Grantee should refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/ and contact his or her local human resources department. (g) Personal Data Retention. The Company Group and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for


 
29 Error! Unknown document property name. the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company Group or the Grantee are subject. (h) For more information on how the Company Group processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/. Imposition of Other Requirements: 27) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company Group reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 28) Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations. By accepting the Award, the Grantee acknowledges, understands and agrees that: a) the future value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Award is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; b) neither the Company Group, nor any member thereof, shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Award, any payment made pursuant to the Award, or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan; and c) the Company Group is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company Group making any recommendations regarding participation in the Plan or the acquisition or sale of the shares of Common Stock. The Grantee should consult with his or her personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. Brazil The Plan: The following provision supplements Section 1 of the Agreement: The Grantee’s participation in the Plan is absolutely voluntary. Award: The following provision supplements Section 1 of the Agreement: The Award is not remuneration for services and, therefore, is not to be considered salary, or of salary nature, for any purpose, whatsoever.


 
30 Error! Unknown document property name. Termination: The following provision replaces Section 3(d) of the Agreement in its entirety: Other Terminations. Except as otherwise provided under Section 3(a), Section 3(b)(i) and Section 3(c) of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, any RSUs that have not vested as of such termination shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration (unless the Board, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise). A termination of Service shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Grantee ceases to perform active employment duties for the Company Group, regardless of any notice period, salary continuation period or other severance period. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, this Agreement or any other agreement between any member of the Company Group and the Grantee to the contrary, the Grantee shall not be entitled to any compensation for the loss of any rights under the Plan or this Agreement as a result of the termination of the Grantee’s Service (for any reason whatsoever, other than those provided under Section 3(a), Section 3(b)(i) and Section 3(c) of this Agreement, whether or not such termination is later found to be invalid or in breach of the employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Grantee is employed or providing services or the terms of the Grantee’s employment or service agreement, if any). Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5. Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group, and in line with that position has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone Confidential and Proprietary Information except in the course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company, as required by law or court order, or as authorized, in writing, by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes but is not limited to all Company Group’ trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s employment. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company Group; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than the Company, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without

Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety, except for subsection 6(f) of the Agreement which remains in force as provided in the Agreement: 6A. Non-Solicitation. In exchange for the Award(s) of RSUs to the Grantee, in accordance with the Plan, Memorandum and this Agreement, and any other related agreements, which the Grantee acknowledges and agrees to be reasonable and sufficient compensation for this Non-Solicitation covenant, and due to the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the latter of (y) twelve (12) months following the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company and (z) the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise: (a) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact; (b) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (c) Utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group; (d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group to leave the employ of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company Group or become employed with or

Non-Competition. Subject to the “Additional Provisions” Section below, in exchange for the Award(s) of RSUs to the Grantee, in accordance with the Plan, Memorandum and this Agreement, and any other related agreements, which the Grantee acknowledges and agrees to be reasonable and sufficient compensation for this Non-Competition covenant, and due to the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the latter of (y) twelve (12) months following the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company and (z) the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity) own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section 6B, a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted by the Grantee’s employer, during the Grantee’s employment with the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary or any other prior or subsequent employer of the same economic group, or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary or any other company of the same economic group, in Brazil or abroad, in or with which the Grantee has been involved or concerned to a material extent or, about which the Grantee received Confidential Information, at any time during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment. It includes, without limitation and to the extent applicable: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job


 
33 Error! Unknown document property name. responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business of the same line of business the Grantee was involved with, participated in, or acquired knowledge of while employed by the Company or its subsidiaries. As further compensation for the non-competition restriction imposed after the termination of employment, as described above, the Company or one of its subsidiaries agrees to pay the Grantee an amount equivalent to the Grantee’s last annual salary, payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments (one for each month of restriction). In the event of a termination due to Retirement, in which case the Grantee shall continue to be eligible to vest and be settled in accordance with schedule set forth in Sub-Sections 3(b) of this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that such future vestings (which are not otherwise available in case of termination for reasons other than Retirement) are sufficient and reasonable compensation for the non-competition period that would start at the Retirement date and end the latter of (y) twelve (12) months following the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company and (z) the final Vesting Date. In the event the Grantee breaches the Grantee’s obligation to non-compete, the Company shall immediately stop making payments or allowing unvested RSUs to vest (i.e., all unvested RSUs will be forfeited), and may also seek any other remedies provided in this Agreement, by law and/or equity. The parties agree that the Company or the applicable subsidiary, at its sole discretion, shall have the right to reduce the post-termination non-compete period or waive the post-termination non- compete obligation of this Sub-Section 6B of the Grantee at the time the Company or its subsidiary gives notice of termination of employment to the Grantee, regardless of whether the termination is with or without cause, or within ten (10) calendar days of the Grantee’s resignation or Retirement. If the Company or its subsidiary decides to reduce the restrictive period, the post- termination compensation for such period, set forth in this Sub-Section 6B, will be reduced in the same proportion, and, if the Company or its subsidiary decides to waive the Grantee’s post- termination non-compete obligation, then the Grantee shall not be entitled to post-termination compensation, in whole or in part, as provided in this Sub-Section 6B, except that if the Grantee’s termination is due to Retirement, a partial or whole waiver of the non-compete shall not affect the Grantee’s entitlement to future vestings, as provided above. The Grantee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee has no expectation of a right to the payment described above, except if the Company or its subsidiary requires the Grantee to comply with the non-compete obligation and the Grantee so complies. The Grantee also acknowledges and agrees that the opportunity to participate in the Award and/or the compensation the Grantee may receive under this Sub-Section 6B is sufficient and fair compensation in exchange for the post-termination non-compete restrictions imposed.

(a) The Company, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process (es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Grantee or the Employer. (b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in Brazil, and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of the Company and/or its subsidiary in granting to the Grantee the Awards. (c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data


 
36 Error! Unknown document property name. with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. (d) International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States. By signing this Agreement, the Grantee provides consent to the international transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data and the processing of such Personal Data in accordance with this Section. (e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and the Grantee’s performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw the Grantee’s consent to the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws the Grantee’s consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. Any Consent Withdrawal shall not affect the lawfulness of Processing based on consent before its withdrawal. The Company will continue to retain the information that the Grantee provided to the Company before the Grantee withdrew the Grantee’s consent for as long as allowed or required by applicable law. (f) Data Subjects Rights. Subject to the exceptions or limitations established by applicable Brazilian law or regulation, the Grantee has the right to: (a) request confirmation of the processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data; (b) request access to the Personal Data; (c) request the correction and/or update of the Personal Data; (d) request the anonymization, blocking or elimination of the Personal Data that is unnecessary, excessive or processed in violation of the law; (e) request the transfer of the Personal Data from one service provider to another; (f) request the deletion of the Personal Data previously processed with the Grantee’s consent; (g) request an identification of the public and private entities to which the Company disclosed the Personal Data or with which the Company used a shared database containing the Grantee’s Personal Data; and (h) object to the processing of the Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding the Grantee’s rights or to exercise the Grantee’s rights, the Grantee should refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/ and contact his or her local human resources department. (g) Personal Data Retention. The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected


 
37 Error! Unknown document property name. and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. (h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/. Canada Vesting of Restricted Stock Units: The following provision supplements Section 2 of the Agreement: Where Awards are settled with shares of Common Stock that are not newly-issued, settlement of the Awards shall take place, at the latest, on or prior to December 31 of the calendar year which is three (3) years after the calendar year in which the performance of services, for which Awards are granted, occurred. Termination of Employment: The following provision replaces the second and third sentences of Section 3(d) of the Agreement: IN ACCEPTING THE AWARD, THE GRANTEE SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE GRANTEE HAS READ AND EXPRESSLY ACCEPTS SECTION 3)(d)OF THIS AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED BY THE FOLLOWING PROVISION: A termination of Service or the date upon which the Grantee is no longer employed shall be deemed to have occurred on the date upon which the Grantee ceases to perform active employment duties for the Company or its subsidiaries following the provision of any notification of termination by the Company either, except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, with or without cause, or because of disability, or because of the voluntary or involuntary resignation or retirement from employment by the Grantee, and without regard to any period of notice of termination of employment (whether expressed or implied), any period of notice of resignation or retirement or any period of pay in lieu of any notice, severance or salary continuation or other entitlement, to which the Grantee might then be entitled, whether under contract, common or civil law or otherwise, save and except as may be otherwise required by applicable employment standards legislation. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Award, this Agreement or any other agreement (written or oral) to the contrary and except as may be required by applicable employment standards legislation, a) the Grantee shall not be entitled (and by accepting an Award, thereby irrevocably waives any such entitlement) to any payment or other benefit to compensate the Grantee for the loss of any rights under the Plan as a result of the termination or expiration of an Award in connection with any termination of employment (for any reason), on a pro-rata basis or otherwise, and whether under contract, common or civil law or otherwise and b) any payments made under the Plan or that would have been made but for the termination, shall not be included in any damages for wrongful dismissal at common or civil law nor in any damages for a lost opportunity to earn the incentive during a common or civil law reasonable notice period. No amounts earned pursuant to the Plan or any Award shall be deemed to be eligible compensation in respect of any other plan of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. The provisions in this Agreement do not prohibit the Grantee from communicating with any governmental authority or making a report in good faith and with a reasonable belief of any violations of law or regulation to a governmental authority, or from testifying or participating in a legal proceeding relating to such violations, including making other disclosures protected or required by any whistleblower law or regulation to any appropriate government authority; provided expressly that the Grantee agrees to honor the confidentiality obligations in this Agreement and will only share Confidential and Proprietary Information with the Grantee’s lawyer or with the government agency or entity.

Non-Competition. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and (1) with respect to all Grantees based in Ontario, continuing thereafter until (Y) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service or (Z) in the event of a termination due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, in each case if the Grantee was classified by the Company in its human resources information system of record as being in an executive role (i.e. chief executive officer, president, chief administrative officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, chief information officer, chief legal officer, chief human resources officer or


 
41 Error! Unknown document property name. chief corporate development officer, or holds any other chief executive position) as of the Grantee’s last day of Service with the Company or (2) with respect to all other Grantees, (i) (Y) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service or (Z) in the event of termination due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, in each case if the Grantee was classified by the Company in its human resources information system of record as being in a Director-level role or above (e.g., Director, VP, SVP, CEO, etc.) as of the Grantee’s last day of Service with the Company, or (ii) (Y) six (6) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company or (Z) in the event of termination due to Retirement, six (6) months following the final Vesting Date, in each case if the Grantee was classified by the Company in its human resources information system of record as being in a role below Director-level (e.g., Manager, Team Lead, Individual Contributor, etc.) as of the Grantee’s last day of Service, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company Group, whether as an agent or otherwise, become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise in the Restricted Area. For purposes of this Section, a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service with the Company or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by any member of the Company Group, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards (collectively the “Business”). For purposes of this Section, the “Restricted Area” is Canada. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Business simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with any member of the Company Group. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. 6C. Additional Provisions. The Company Group has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients,


 
42 Error! Unknown document property name. and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of the employees of any member of the Company Group, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company Group that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C of this Agreement, the damages to the Company Group would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable legal fees, the Company Group shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Sub-Sections 6A or 6B, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company Group, or until the Company Group states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, subject to applicable law, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, or (ii) in the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Service due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the final Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company Group, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company Group no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, or (ii) in the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide


 
43 Error! Unknown document property name. any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company Group may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company Group is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B and Sub-Section 6C, upon termination of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company Group. Governing Law: The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. This Agreement and the legal relations between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the province in which the Grantee performs the majority of the Grantee’s work for the Company and the federal laws of Canada applicable in that province.

Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to remit to the Company or any applicable subsidiary an amount sufficient to pay such taxes. Such payment shall be made to the Company or the applicable subsidiary of the Company in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may retain and withhold from delivery at the time of vesting that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the taxes owed by the Grantee, which retained shares shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on behalf of the Grantee. Voluntary Participation: 26) Voluntary Participation. By accepting this Award of securities, the Grantee represents and warrants to the Company that the Grantee’s participation in the trade and acceptance of such securities is voluntary and that the Grantee has not been induced to participate by expectation of engagement, appointment, employment or continued engagement, appointment or employment, as applicable. 27) French Language Documents for Quebec-based Grantees. In the event that Grantee is based in Quebec, a French translation of the Agreement, the Plan and certain other

However, upon request, the Company will provide a translation of such information into French as soon as reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, and unless the Grantee indicates otherwise, the Agreement and other documents related to the Award in the language chosen and signed by the Grantee will govern the Award and the Grantee's participation in the Plan.

The Grantee also authorizes the Company, the Employer and/or any other affiliate to record such information and to keep such information in the Grantee’s employee file. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Grantee’s personal information, including sensitive personal information, may be transferred or disclosed outside of the province where the Grantee resides, including to the United States. If applicable, the Grantee also acknowledges that the Company, the Employer, and other parties involved in the administration of the Plan may use technology for profiling purposes and to make automated decisions that may have an impact on you or the administration of the Plan. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 30) Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations.

To the extent the restrictions contained in this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the restrictions in this Agreement. If after the date of this Agreement the Grantee subsequently agrees to enter into an agreement containing restrictive covenants (“Subsequent Restrictions”), to the extent that the restrictions contained in this Agreement conflict in any way with any Subsequent Restrictions, such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the Subsequent Restrictions. 6.2.4 The Grantee hereby agrees that the Grantee will, subject to applicable law and at the request and cost of the Company enter into a direct agreement or undertaking with any Group Company whereby the Grantee will accept restrictions and provisions corresponding to the restrictions and provisions in this Agreement (or such of them as may be appropriate in the circumstances) in relation to such activities and such area and for such a period as such Group Company may reasonably require for the protection of its legitimate business interests. 6.2.5 If the Grantee’s employment transfers by operation of law to a third party (the “Transferee”), this Agreement shall with effect from that transfer of employment apply to the Grantee as if references to the Company included the Transferee and references to any Group Company were construed accordingly, and as if the references to defined terms in respect of the Company and any Group Company including but not limited to "Customer", "Prospective Customer" and "Critical Employee", applied to the customers, prospective customers and critical employees of the Transferee and their respective Group Companies. The Grantee agrees to execute any such documents as may be required to effectuate said benefit. 6.2.6 Each of the restrictions contained in this Sub-Section 6.2, each definition set out in Sub-Section 6.1, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each


 
57 Error! Unknown document property name. Sub-Section or definition is intended to be an entirely separate, severable and independent restriction, notwithstanding that they are combined together for the sake of brevity, and the Grantee agrees not to advance any argument to the contrary. In the event that any of the restrictions shall be held to be void or ineffective but would be valid and effective if some part of the wording thereof were deleted such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective. If such a deletion applies to a definition, such deletion shall not apply to any other restriction, so that each definition is deemed to be repeated each time it is used. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. 6.2.7 The Grantee agrees to provide a copy of this Agreement to any employer or other person to whom or with whom the Grantee is intending to provide services within the Restricted Period before entering into any contractually binding agreement to perform such services. 6.2.8 Subject to any requirements under the General Data Protection Regulations, immediately after agreeing to provide services to any person during the Restricted Period, the Grantee will notify the Company of the identity of that person. 6.2.9 Upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company as a reminder and ratification of the Grantee undertaking to comply with the Grantee obligations under this agreement. 6.2.10 The Grantee acknowledges that the period of time, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company and any Group Company. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Section 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8) Tax Obligations. a) As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for the payment of income and employment taxes (and any other taxes or contributions whatsoever, including social security contributions) payable in connection with the vesting of an Award. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to remit to the Company or any applicable subsidiary an amount sufficient to pay such taxes required to be withheld by the Company. Such payment shall be made to the Company or the applicable subsidiary of the Company in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. b) Notwithstanding Sub-Section 8)a), the Company will retain and withhold from delivery at the time of vesting that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to


 
58 Error! Unknown document property name. any taxes or contributions required to be withheld by the Company from the Grantee, which retained shares shall fund the payment of such taxes or contributions by the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group on behalf of the Grantee. Section 8 shall be without prejudice to the applicable tax and social security obligations under German law applying to the Company or any Group Company. Electronic Delivery: The following provision replaces Section 25 of the Agreement in its entirety: 25) Written Form; Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. Each party shall receive a mutually signed copy of this. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means.

If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. f) Data Subjects Rights.

Each of the restrictions contained in this Sub-Section 6B, each definition set out in Sub- Section 6A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub- Section or definition is intended to be an entirely separate, severable and independent restriction, notwithstanding that they are combined together for the sake of brevity, and the Grantee agrees not to advance any argument to the contrary. In the event that any of the restrictions shall be held to be void or ineffective but would be valid and effective if some part of the wording thereof were deleted such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective. If such a deletion applies to a definition, such deletion shall not apply to any other restriction, so that each definition is deemed to be repeated each time it is used. 6B.6. The Grantee warrants that s/he will provide a copy of this Agreement to any employer or other person to whom or with whom the Grantee is intending to provide services or enter into employment within the Restricted Period, and that the Grantee will do so before entering into any contractually binding agreement to perform such services or enter into employment. 6B.7.

The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any). c) The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of the Grantee’s office or employment with the Grantee’s employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or

Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Section 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8) Tax Obligations. Regardless of any action the Company or the subsidiary that employs the Grantee (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, or other tax-related items related to the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items owed by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and that such amount may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock, and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (ii) does not commit and is under no obligation to take any action or structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.

Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue and deliver shares of Common Stock in payment of any earned and vested Restricted Stock Units if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section 10.

75 Error! Unknown document property name. b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider.

In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. d) International Data Transfers.

The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan.

These communications must be sent at the latest within the beginning of the activity and/or the assumption of the responsibility, in order to permit any control and defense of its legitimate rights by the Company. In case of non-fulfillment of the information obligations aforementioned, the Grantee shall pay to the Company a penalty equal to EUR 500,00 (five hundred/00), for each day of delay.

The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. With respect to the obligations pointed out in this covenant, and as consideration for such undertakings, the Company will pay to the Grantee, on the date of termination of the relationship, for any reason whatsoever, an amount equal to thirty percent (30%) of the last gross annual salary. The Grantee irrevocably acknowledges that the above compensation for the non-competition covenant is fair and that the non-competition covenant is limited as to its purpose so that the Grantee shall be able to find an alternative job during the validity of such non-competition agreement and to exercise in full the Grantee’s professional skills. In the event of breach of this non-competition covenant, the Grantee shall pay, also as a penalty, an amount of money equal to the double of the amount agreed as compensation of the non- competition agreement, even if not cashed yet, any claim to obtain further compensation for damages suffered by the Company being freely operable. The payment of the penalty and/or of the compensation for further damages shall not cause the termination of this undertaking, which shall anyway preserve its validity until its natural expiry date. The Parties undertake not to ask for the reduction of the penalties, as provided for by section 1348 of the Italian Civil Code, remuneration, compensations mentioned in this Agreement that were agreed having considered the mutual financial interests.

Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.

The Grantee agrees to execute any such documents as may be required to effectuate said benefit. 6B.6 Each of the restrictions contained in this Sub-Section 5B, each definition set out in Sub- Section 5A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub- Section or definition is intended to be an entirely separate, severable and independent restriction, notwithstanding that they are combined together for the sake of brevity, and the Grantee agrees not to advance any argument to the contrary. In the event that any of the restrictions shall be held to be void or ineffective but would be valid and effective if some part of the wording thereof were deleted such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective.

If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. 6B.9 Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5, Sub-Section 5A and Sub-Section 5B, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

(b) The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time.

The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any). (c) The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of the Grantee’s office or employment with the Grantee’s employing entity, any past or present subsidiary,

Governing Law: The following provisions replace Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law.

Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to remit to the Company or any applicable subsidiary an amount sufficient to pay such taxes. Such payment shall be made to the Company or the applicable subsidiary of the Company in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may retain and withhold from delivery at the time of vesting that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the taxes owed by the Grantee, which retained shares shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on behalf of the Grantee. Further to the above, the Grantee agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Employer and all Group Companies in respect of any income tax and National Insurance liability which fails to be paid to the Dutch tax authorities by the Company or the Employer in connection with the grant, vesting or cancellation of the Award or the acquisition or other dealing in the shares of Common Stock acquired.

In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan.

The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/.

If WEX Inc. runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, you will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares have been paid. You may lose some or all of your investment. New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share purchase scheme. As a result, you may not be given all the information usually required. You will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment.


 
96 Error! Unknown document property name. Ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing yourself. The Restricted Stock Units themselves are not quoted and are not transferable. You are not able to sell Restricted Stock Units. However, upon vesting in accordance with these terms, the Restricted Stock Units will be vested as shares of Common Stock. Common Stock is quoted on the New York Stock Exchange. This means you may be able to sell your vested Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange if there are interested buyers. You may get less than you invested. The price will depend on the demand for the Common Stock. Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5.

For purposes of this Sub-Section 6.(d), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s employment with the Company, or its subsidiaries, and of which the Grantee was aware.

Furthermore, the restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Company Group Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company; and/or (e) Subject to Section 5, and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) to the extent permitted by law, aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company.

Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Period” means: (1) Twelve (12) months from the Grantee’s last day of employment with the Company, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (2) Nine (9) months from the Grantee’s last day of employment with the Company, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (3) Six (6) months from the Grantee’s last day of employment with the Company. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Area" means: (1) New Zealand, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then: (2) Auckland and/or any other region and/or location in which the Company or any other company in the WEX group conducts business during the Grantee’s employment with the Company and in which the Grantee was involved and/or had knowledge of Confidential and Proprietary Information in respect of, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then; (3) Auckland. For the purposes of this Section 6, the parties understand and agree that the “Company” means WEX Inc. and any of its holding or subsidiary companies as defined by the Companies Act 1993 (NZ) as amended from time to time. The Company Group have previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions, rather than the Restrictions contained in this Section 6. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6, the damages to the Company and its subsidiaries would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to penalties, monetary damages and interest and/or legal costs, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of an interim injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial


 
100 Error! Unknown document property name. relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. The parties undertake and agree that the restrictive covenants outlined in Section 6 constitute a reasonable bargain between the parties for the consideration that will be provided by the Company in exchange for the Grantee entering into the restrictive covenants as outlined. Each restrictive covenant in this Section 6 (resulting from any combination of the wording in this Section 6, including the relevant definitions) constitutes a separate restrictive covenant that is severable from the other restrictive covenants. If any one or more provisions of this Section 6 shall for any reason be held to be unreasonable, void, voidable, unenforceable or illegal by a court or tribunal as to the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity or subject, because it goes beyond what is reasonable to protect the Company and its business or for any other reason, then the parties specifically agree that in accordance with section 83 of the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017 (NZ) as amended from time to time, the offensive part will be severed and the other restrictive covenants will remain in full force and effect to the greatest extent permitted by law or a court may modify the provision to the extent that it would be deemed reasonable in order to give effect to the terms of the restrictive covenant so modified. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that a court may modify provision contained within this Section 6 notwithstanding that such a modification cannot be effected by the deletion of words from the provision. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee where such engagement would breach the terms of this Agreement. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. The Grantee understands, acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee has been provided with an opportunity to seek independent legal advice before deciding whether or not to enter into this Agreement and that the Grantee has made the decision on the Grantee’s own accord to agree to the restrictive covenants contained within this Section 6 in exchange for the consideration that the Company is providing as outlined herein. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any). Imposition of Other Requirements:


 
101 Error! Unknown document property name. 26) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 27) Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations. By accepting the Award, the Grantee acknowledges, understands and agrees that: a) the future value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Award is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; b) neither the Company, the Employer, nor any other subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Award, any payment made pursuant to the Award, or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan; and c) the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding participation in the Plan or the acquisition or sale of the shares of Common Stock. The Grantee should consult with his or her personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. Singapore The Grantee is employed by WEX Asia Pte Ltd (the “Employer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (each a “Group Company” and collectively, with all other subsidiaries of the Company, the “Group Companies”).

The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i)


 
120 Error! Unknown document property name. perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. d) International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. f) Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence. For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding the Grantee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Grantee should refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/ and contact his or her local human resources department. g) Personal Data Retention. The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this


 
121 Error! Unknown document property name. Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. (h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 29) Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations By accepting the Award, the Grantee consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges that the Grantee has received a copy of the Plan. The Grantee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously, and in its sole discretion decided to grant the Award under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not bind the Company or any subsidiary, other than to the extent set forth in this Agreement. Consequently, the Grantee understands that the Award is granted on the assumption and condition that the Award and any shares acquired at vesting of the Award are not part of any employment or service contract (either with the Company or any subsidiary), and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation), or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Grantee understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Grantee acknowledges and freely accepts that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of or right to the Award shall be null and void. Further, the Grantee understands that he or she will not be entitled to continue vesting in any Award upon cessation of the Grantee’s employment or service, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. This will be the case, for example, even in the event of a termination of the Grantee’s employment by reason of, but not limited to, resignation, retirement, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjusted or recognized to be without cause (“improcedente”), individual or collective dismissal or objective grounds, whether adjudged or recognized to be without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer and under Article 10.3 of the Royal Decree 1382/1985. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has read and specifically accepts the vesting and termination conditions in the Agreement. The Grantee further acknowledges that: a) the future value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Award is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; b) neither the Company, the Employer, nor any other subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the United States

129 Error! Unknown document property name. shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect first to the enforceable restrictions in this Agreement. 6G. The Grantee hereby agrees that the Grantee will at the request and cost of the Employer enter into a direct agreement or undertaking with any Group Company whereby the Grantee will accept restrictions and provisions corresponding to the restrictions and provisions in Sections 5 and 6 (or such of them as may be appropriate in the circumstances) in relation to such activities and such area and for such a period as such Group Company may reasonably require for the protection of its legitimate business interests. 6H.

In the event that any of the restrictions shall be held to be void or ineffective but would be valid and effective if some part of the wording thereof were deleted such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective. If such a deletion applies to a definition, such deletion shall not apply to any other restriction, so that each definition is deemed to be repeated each time it is used. 6J.

Immediately after agreeing to provide services to or enter into employment with any third party during the Restricted Period, the Grantee will notify the Employer of the identity of that third party. 6L.

130 Error! Unknown document property name. fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Employer and Group Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provisions supplement Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract. The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of the Grantee’s office or employment with the Grantee’s employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which the Grantee may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of the Grantee’s office or employment with any such company for any reasons whatsoever (whether lawful or unlawful and including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, in circumstances giving rise to a claim for wrongful dismissal) insofar as those rights arise or may arise from the Grantee’s ceasing to have rights under the Plan or being entitled to this Award as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements. Governing Law The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. Save for taxation and the Sections which have been replaced or amended for the United Kingdom as set forth herein (Sections 5, 6, 10,11, 13, 26, 27, 28, 29) which shall be governed by the laws of England and Wales, this Agreement and the legal relations between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. Consent to Jurisdiction: The following provision replaces Section 11 of the Agreement in its entirety: 11) Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee, by the Grantee’s execution hereof, (a) hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware for the purposes of any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof, save for any claim or action arising out of or based upon the “United Kingdom” section of Exhibit A of this Agreement, which each party irrevocably agrees to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts (b) hereby waive, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such claim or action, any claim that the Grantee is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the Grantee’s property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such proceeding brought in the above-named court is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court and (c) hereby agree not to commence any claim or action arising out of or based upon this


 
131 Error! Unknown document property name. Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof other than before the above-named courts nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such claim or action to any court other than the above-named courts whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise; provided, however, that the Company and the Grantee may seek to enforce a judgment issued by the above-named courts in any proper jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee hereby consent to service of process in any such proceeding, and agree that service of process by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at the Grantee’s address specified pursuant to Section 15 is reasonably calculated to give actual notice. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Section 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8) Tax Obligations. As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for the payment of UK income tax and employee's primary Class 1 national insurance contribution liabilities (and any other taxes required to be withheld) payable in connection with the vesting of an Award. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to remit to the Company or any applicable subsidiary an amount sufficient to pay such taxes. Such payment shall be made to the Company or the applicable subsidiary of the Company in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may retain and withhold from delivery at the time of vesting that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the taxes owed by the Grantee, which retained shares shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on behalf of the Grantee.

If so required by the Company, and if the shares subject to the Award are considered to be "restricted securities" for the purposes of Part 7, Chapter 2 ITEPA (such determination to be made by the Company in its absolute discretion), settlement of the Award will be conditional on the Grantee executing a joint election pursuant to section 431 ITEPA together with the Employer in order to elect that the market value of the shares subject to the Award be calculated as if such shares were not "restricted securities".

Data Privacy: 26) Data Privacy a) The Company, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process (es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Grantee or the Employer. b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. d) International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent.


 
133 Error! Unknown document property name. e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. f) Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence. For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding the Grantee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Grantee should refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/ and contact their local human resources department. g) Personal Data Retention. The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/. Imposition of Other Requirements: 27) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Electronic Delivery and Acceptance: 28) Electronic Delivery and Acceptance.

If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The restrictions in this Section shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo


 
137 Error! Unknown document property name. pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the final Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

For purposes of this Section 6(e), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee.

The restrictions in this Section 6 will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled.

The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach; except that the duration of the covenants contained in Sub-Section 6(e), only, shall extend to twenty-four (24) months if the Grantee breached his or her fiduciary duty to the Company and/or if the Grantee has unlawfully taken, physically or electronically, property belonging to the Company. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified,

The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the final Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The Grantee is hereby informed that the Grantee has the right to consult with counsel prior to signing this Agreement. Governing Law: The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action or other matters that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation thereof to the substantive laws of another jurisdiction; except that Sub-Section 6(e) only shall be governed by the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts if the Grantee was a resident of Massachusetts for thirty (30) days immediately preceding Grantee’s cessation of Service.

United States - Washington Only The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6) Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that: (a) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, solicit any current customer of the Company to cease or reduce the extent to which it is doing business with the Company; (b) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, solicit any employee of the Company to leave the Company; (c) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or

Rev. Code 49.62.020 as adjusted by 49.62.040 (for 2025, $123,395), then Grantee shall not become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section 6(d), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled.

The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that


 
157 Error! Unknown document property name. the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company.

If Grantee is a new hire, Grantee acknowledges that the terms of this Agreement were disclosed to Grantee in writing no later than the time of the acceptance of the offer of employment. If Grantee is a current employee, Grantee acknowledges that this Agreement provides, and Grantee has received, good, valuable, sufficient and independent consideration for this Sub-Section 6(d); and/or (e) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be

Consent to Jurisdiction: The following is added to the end of Section 11: If the laws of the State of Washington apply to the Grantee, then nothing in this Agreement shall require the Grantee to adjudicate a noncompetition covenant outside of the State of Washington. Grantee understands that nothing in this Agreement or in any Company policy prevents Grantee from discussing or disclosing conduct, or the existence of a settlement involving conduct, that Grantee reasonably believed to be illegal discrimination, illegal harassment, illegal retaliation, a wage and hour violation, or sexual assault, or that is recognized as illegal under state, federal, or common law, or that is recognized as against a clear mandate of public policy, where the conduct occurred at the workplace, at work-related events coordinated by or through the employer, between employees, or between an employer and an employee, whether on or off the employment premises; provided, however, that Grantee remains subject to any obligation to keep confidential the amount paid in settlement of any claim.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual convents hereinafter set forth, the Company and the Grantee agree as follows: 1) Award. Subject to (i) the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Grantee’s agreement to comply with the obligations set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 below) and (ii) the Grantee’s acknowledgement of this Agreement and the Memorandum, the Company hereby grants the Grantee the number of Performance Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Memorandum (the “PRSUs”). 2) Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3(a), Section 3(b)(i) and Section 3(c), no portion of the PRSUs shall become vested unless and until both the Time-Vesting Condition and Performance-Vesting Condition (as those terms are described below) have been satisfied (collectively, the “Vesting Conditions”). Any portion of the PRSUs that has satisfied both the Time-Vesting Condition and the Performance-Vesting Condition (or has otherwise become vested pursuant to Section 3(a), Section 3(b)(i) or Section 3(c)) is hereinafter referred to as the “Vested PRSUs” and the date on which any PRSUs become Vested PRSUs, the “Vesting Date.” a) Time-Vesting Condition.

Upon the Grantee’s death, if (i) achievement of the Performance-Vesting Condition has not been determined by the Board at such time (the “Pre-Determination Period”), the Target number of PRSUs set forth in the Memorandum shall immediately vest, become Vested PRSUs and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4; or (ii) achievement of the Performance- Vesting Condition has been determined by the Board at such time (the “Post-Determination Period”), then such number of PRSUs determined by the Board to have satisfied the Performance- Vesting Condition shall immediately vest, become Vested PRSUs and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4. b) Retirement. i) If the Grantee’s Service is terminated due to the Grantee’s Retirement (as defined below), the Time-Vesting Condition shall be deemed satisfied and the PRSUs shall remain outstanding and eligible to satisfy the Performance-Vesting Condition, subject to the Grantee’s (x) continued compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 5 and Section 6, (y) execution and non-revocation of a separation agreement, including a release of claims, in a form provided by the Company (and executed by deed where appropriate), within the timeframe set forth therein, but no later than thirty (30) days following the Grantee’s Retirement (the “Release Requirement”) and (z) successful completion of the Grantee’s transitional duties prior to Retirement. Subject to the foregoing conditions, any PRSUs that satisfy the Performance-Vesting Condition following the Grantee’s Retirement shall vest, become Vested PRSUs and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4; provided that, settlement shall be on or prior to March 15 of the year following the year in which the performance period set forth on Schedule 1 ends.

If the Grantee fails to satisfy the Release Requirement, outstanding PRSUs shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration and the Board may require the Grantee to immediately remit to the Company any shares of Common Stock (or the fair market value thereof (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) to the extent the Grantee no longer holds the shares of Common Stock) issued in respect of the PRSUs, and the Company shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing its rights pursuant to this Section 3(b)(i). ii) Notwithstanding Section 3(b)(i), if (x) the Company receives a legal opinion stating that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in the Grantee’s jurisdiction that likely would result in Section 3(b)(i) being deemed unlawful or in violation of Section 409A, or (y) any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 are held by any court or governmental authority (or otherwise deemed) to be void, unlawful or unenforceable with respect to the Grantee, then Section 3(b)(i) shall be void ab initio and the PRSUs shall be subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement. If the Grantee has


 
3 already received shares of Common Stock as a result of Section 3(b)(i), the Board may require the Grantee to immediately remit to the Company any shares of Common Stock (or the fair market value thereof (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) to the extent the Grantee no longer holds the shares of Common Stock), and the Company shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing its rights pursuant to this Section 3(b)(ii). iii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means a termination of the Grantee’s Service following Notice (as defined below), other than a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause or where grounds for a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause exist; provided that at the time of such Notice the Grantee has satisfied one (or more) of the following: (x) attainment of at least fifty-five (55) years of age and ten (10) full years of continuous Service, (y) attainment of at least sixty (60) years of age and five (5) full years of continuous Service or (z) attainment of at least sixty-five (65) years of age and two (2) full years of continuous Service, in each case, as determined by the Company’s HRIS. To invoke a termination due to Retirement, the Grantee must provide at least six (6) months prior written notice to the Grantee’s direct manager at the applicable member of the Company Group (the “Notice”) and the termination date must be at least six (6) months following the Date of Grant. c) Change in Control. i) If, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the surviving entity does not assume or substitute the PRSUs, then if such Change in Control occurs (i) during the Pre- Determination Period, the Target number of PRSUs set forth in the Memorandum (unless the Board, in its sole discretion, determines that a greater number of PRSUs shall vest and become Vested PRSUs) shall immediately vest, become Vested PRSUs and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4; or (ii) during the Post-Determination Period, then such number of PRSUs determined by the Board to have satisfied the Performance-Vesting Condition shall immediately vest, become Vested PRSUs and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4. ii) If, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the surviving entity assumes or substitutes the PRSUs, then the PRSUs shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest in accordance with Section 2 and Section 3 (as applicable); provided, however, that, in accordance with Section 10(c)(2) of the Plan, if the Grantee’s Service is terminated by a member of the Company Group (including any acquirer or successor) without Cause or by the Grantee for Good Reason, in each case, following such Change in Control but prior to the first anniversary thereof, then if such termination occurs (i) during the Pre-Determination Period, the Target number of PRSUs set forth in the Memorandum (unless the Board, in its sole discretion, determines that a greater number of PRSUs shall vest and become Vested PRSUs) shall immediately vest, become Vested PRSUs and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4; or (ii) during the Post- Determination Period, then such number of PRSUs determined by the Board to have satisfied the Performance-Vesting Condition shall immediately vest, become Vested PRSUs and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4. d) Other Terminations. Except as otherwise provided under Section 3(a), Section 3(b)(i) and Section 3(c)(ii) of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, any PRSUs that have not satisfied the Vesting Conditions as of such termination shall


 
4 be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration (unless the Board, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise). A termination of Service shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Grantee ceases to perform active employment duties for the Company Group, regardless of any notice period, salary continuation period or other severance period. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, this Agreement or any other agreement between any member of the Company Group and the Grantee to the contrary, the Grantee shall not be entitled to any compensation for the loss of any rights under the Plan or this Agreement as a result of the termination of the Grantee’s Service. 4) Settlement. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3(b)(i), as soon as practicable following the applicable Vesting Date, but no later than thirty (30) days following such Vesting Date, the Company shall deliver to the Grantee, for each Vested PRSU, one (1) share of Common Stock, subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Board. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered and any fractions shall be rounded down. 5) Confidential and Proprietary Information. a) The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group and in line with that position has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes but is not limited to all the Company Group’s trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s Service. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company Group, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company Group; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than any member of the Company Group, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without any obligations of confidentiality attaching to such disclosure; (4) is developed by the Grantee entirely on the Grantee’s own time without the Company Group’s equipment, supplies or facilities and does not relate at the time of conception to the Company Group’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development; or (5) is lawfully acquired by a non-supervisory employee about wages, hours or other terms and conditions of


 
5 employment when used for purposes protected by §7 of the National Labor Relations Act such as discussing wages, benefits or terms and conditions of employment, or other legally protected concerted activity for mutual aid or protection of laborers. Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. b) The provisions in this Agreement do not prohibit the Grantee from communicating with any governmental authority or making a report in good faith and with a reasonable belief of any violations of law or regulation to a governmental authority, or from testifying or participating in a legal proceeding relating to such violations, including providing documents or information or making other disclosures protected or required by any whistleblower law or regulation to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Department of Labor, or any other appropriate government authority. This may include disclosure of trade secret or confidential information within the limitations permitted by the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA). The Grantee understands, agrees and acknowledges that under the DTSA, (1) no individual will be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret (as defined in the Economic Espionage Act) that: (A) is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public; and (2) an individual who pursues a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of the law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except as permitted by court order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee expressly agrees to honor the confidentiality obligations in this Agreement and will only share Confidential and Proprietary Information with the Grantee’s attorney or with the government agency or entity in accordance with this Section 5. Further, nothing in this Agreement limits or affects Grantee’s right to disclose or discuss sexual harassment or sexual assault disputes. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to permit or condone unlawful conduct, including but not limited to the theft or misappropriation of Company Group’s property, trade secrets or information. 6) Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date (in each case, except with respect to Section 5(f), which restrictions apply in perpetuity), the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company Group, whether as an agent or otherwise: a) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or


 
6 patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact; b) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information; c) Utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group; d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group to leave the employ of any member of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any employee of a member of the Company Group to leave the employ of such member of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than a member of the Company Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by a member of the Company Group within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; e) Become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Section 6(e), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule


 
7 governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company Group simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section 6 will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section 6 shall operate in any country in which the Company Group conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by a member of the Company Group; and/or f) Subject to Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company Group, to (i) any competitor of the Company Group, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company Group, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of any member of the Company Group, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against any member of the Company Group, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company Group (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company Group, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of any member of the Company Group and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of any member of the Company Group; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company Group (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against any member of the Company Group, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against any member of the Company Group, (iii) proposing to acquire any member of the Company Group or any of its assets or (iv) making any other demands of any member of the Company Group. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company Group with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company Group has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or


 
8 patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of the employees of any member of the Company Group, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company Group that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company Group would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company Group shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company Group, or until the Company Group states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company Group, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company Group no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Section 5 and Section 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to


 
9 provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company Group may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company Group is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5 and Section 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company Group. 7) Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Grantee shall not be permitted to transfer or assign this Agreement or the PRSUs, except as expressly permitted under the Plan. The Company may assign this Agreement to an entity controlled by or under common control with the Company or to an entity that acquires all or substantially all of the business, equity or assets of the Company. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company Group and its successors and assigns and upon the Grantee and the Grantee’s heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person other than the Company Group and the Grantee, and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. 8) Withholding. As a condition to the granting of the PRSUs, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for the payment of income and employment taxes (and any other taxes) payable in connection with the vesting and/or settlement of the PRSUs. The Company Group shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold automatically from any payment or shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement, or require the Grantee to remit to the Company Group, the minimum statutory amount to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement (the “Minimum Withholding”) in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion); provided that, except as otherwise provided by the Board, with respect to the withholding of shares of Common Stock, if the Company Group is able to withhold from the shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement such number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) that is greater than the Minimum Withholding without financial accounting implications for the Company or the withholding is in a jurisdiction that does not have a Minimum Withholding, the Company Group shall have the power and the right, including at the Grantee's request, to deduct or withhold automatically from any shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement up to the maximum individual statutory rate of tax (determined by, or in a manner approved by, the Company) to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement.


 
10 9) No Rights to Continued Service. The granting of the PRSUs shall impose no obligation on any member of the Company Group to continue the Service of the Grantee and shall not interfere in any way with the right of any member of the Company Group to terminate such Service. 10) Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action or other matters that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation thereof to the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. 11) Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee, by the Grantee’s execution hereof, (a) hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware for the purposes of any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof, (b) hereby waive, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such claim or action, any claim that the Grantee is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the Grantee’s property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such proceeding brought in the above-named court is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court and (c) hereby agree not to commence any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof other than before the above-named courts nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such claim or action to any court other than the above-named courts whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise; provided, however, that the Company and the Grantee may seek to enforce a judgment issued by the above-named courts in any proper jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee hereby consent to service of process in any such proceeding, and agree that service of process by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at the Grantee’s address specified pursuant to Section 15 is reasonably calculated to give actual notice. 12) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES AND COVENANTS THAT THE GRANTEE SHALL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE OR ACTION, CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR SUIT (IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE), INQUIRY, PROCEEDING OR INVESTIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE OTHER PARTY HERETO THAT THIS SECTION 12 CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH THEY ARE RELYING AND SHALL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 12 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.


 
11 13) Compliance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company intends that the PRSUs qualify as exempt from the requirements of Section 409A. In the event that the PRSUs do not qualify as exempt from Section 409A, it is intended that the PRSUs will satisfy the requirements of Section 409A. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with that intent, such that there are no adverse tax consequences, interest or penalties under Section 409A as a result of the PRSUs. In no event whatsoever will any member of the Company Group or any of their respective directors, officers, agents, attorneys, employees, shareholders, investors, managers, fiduciaries, successors or assigns be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on the Grantee under Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A. 14) No Guarantees Regarding Tax Treatment. Grantee (or Grantee’s beneficiaries) shall be responsible for all taxes with respect to the PRSUs. The Board and the Company make no guarantees regarding the tax treatment of the PRSUs. Neither the Board nor the Company has any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any tax under Section 409A of the Code or Section 457A of the Code or otherwise. 15) Notices. Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed given when delivered personally, or when deposited in the regular mail, postage prepaid, addressed, as appropriate, to the Grantee at the last address specified in the Grantee’s employment records (or such other address as the Grantee may designate in writing to the Company), or to the Company, 1 Hancock Street, Portland, ME 04101, Attention: Chief Legal Officer, or such other address as the Company may designate in writing to the Grantee. 16) No Effect on Compensation. The amount of any compensation the Grantee receives pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute includable compensation for purposes of determining the amount of benefits to which the Grantee is entitled to under any other compensation or benefit plan or program of the Company Group, including, without limitation, under any pension or severance benefits plan, except to the extent specifically provided by the terms of any such plan or as otherwise expressly required under applicable law. 17) Failure to Enforce Not a Waiver. The failure of the Company to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof. 18) Recoupment/Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, any amounts paid (in cash or non-cash) to the Grantee under this Agreement that are subject to recovery under any current or future law, government regulation, stock exchange listing requirement, or policy of the Company Group (“Company Policy”), will be recouped and recovered by the Company pursuant to such law, government regulation, stock exchange listing requirement, or Company Policy unless such Company Policy violates the laws of the State of Delaware. 19) Amendments. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate this Agreement, the Plan, or any portion thereof at any time, in


 
12 its sole discretion; provided, that no action taken by the Board shall adversely affect in any material respect any rights granted to the Grantee under this Agreement (other than pursuant to Article 10 of the Plan or as the Board deems necessary to comply with applicable law, including without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 409A) without the Grantee’s written consent.

14 SCHEDULE 1 Performance-Vesting Condition


 
15 EXHIBIT A Country and State Specific Provisions This Exhibit A includes special terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted to such Grantee under the Plan if the Grantee resides and/or works in one of the jurisdictions listed below. These terms and conditions are in addition to or, if so indicated, in replacement of the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement. This Exhibit A also includes information regarding Confidential and Proprietary Information, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and certain other issues of which the Grantee should be aware with respect to the Grantee’s receipt of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and participation in the Plan. The information is based on the exchange control, securities and other laws in effect in the respective jurisdictions as of March 2024. However, such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Grantee not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Grantee vests in the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, acquires shares (or the cash equivalent) or sells the Common Stock acquired under the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Grantee’s particular situation and the Company is not in a position to assure the Grantee of any particular result. Accordingly, the Grantee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Grantee’s jurisdiction may apply to the Grantee’s situation. Finally, if the Grantee is a citizen or resident of a jurisdiction other than the one in which the Grantee is currently residing and/or working, transfers employment and/or residency to another jurisdiction after the Award is granted or is considered a resident of another jurisdiction for local law purposes, the terms and conditions and notifications contained herein may not be applicable to the Grantee. The Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions included herein will apply under these circumstances.


 
16 Australia Termination; Change in Control The following provisions replace Sub-Section 3(d) of the Agreement in its entirety: 3(d) Other Terminations. Except as otherwise provided under Section 3(a), Section 3(b)(i) and Section 3(c)(ii) of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, any PRSUs that have not satisfied the Vesting Conditions as of such termination shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration (unless the Board, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise). A termination of Service shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Grantee ceases to be employed and inclusive of any notice period whether worked or paid in lieu, but excluding any salary continuation period or redundancy payment period. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, this Agreement or any other agreement between any member of the Company Group and the Grantee to the contrary, the Grantee shall not be entitled to any compensation for the loss of any rights under the Plan or this Agreement as a result of the termination of the Grantee’s Service. Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5. Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group, and in line with that position has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes but is not limited to all Company Group trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s employment. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company Group; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than the Company, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without any obligations of confidentiality attaching to such disclosure; or (4) is developed by the Grantee entirely on the Grantee’s own time without the Company Group’s equipment, supplies or facilities


 
17 and does not relate at the time of conception to the Company Group’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development; or (5) is information pertaining to Grantee’s pay or employment terms and conditions if the information is disclosed voluntarily by the Grantee, subject to any additional confidentiality restrictions relating to pay and/or the terms and conditions of employment. Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and for the Restraint Period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise: (a) Contact, provide unsolicited advice to, solicit, attempt to take away business where a customer or client has not made contact of their own free-will, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact within the last 12 months of their employment with the Company; (b) In the Restraint Area, contact, provide unsolicited advice to, solicit, attempt to take away business where a customer or client has not made contact of their own free- will, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee had direct access to and contact with, within the last 12 months of their employment with the Company, as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (c) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group with whom the Grantee had a business relationship and/or dealings to leave the employ of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company Group become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company Group;


 
18 (d) In the Restraint Area, become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity) own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section 5(d), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service, and of which the Grantee was aware. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. Furthermore, the restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company; and/or (e) Subject to Section 5, and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the


 
19 control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) to the extent permitted by law, aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Period” means: (1) Twelve (12) months from the Grantee’s last day of Service, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (2) Nine (9) months from the Grantee’s last day of Service, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (3) Six (6) months from the Grantee’s last day of Service. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Area” means: (1) Australia, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then: (2) Victoria, New South Wales and/or any other state, territory and/or location in which the Company or any other company in the WEX group conducts business during Grantee’s Service and in which the Grantee was involved and/or held relationships with clients of the WEX group within these states, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then; (3) The state where the Grantee was employed. For the purposes of this Section 6, the parties understand and agree that the “Company” means WEX Inc. and any of its “related body corporate” as defined by the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) as amended from time to time. The Company Group have previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will


 
20 remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions, rather than the Restrictions contained in this Section 6. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6, the damages to the Company and its subsidiaries would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or legal costs, the Company shall have the right to seek specific performance, an injunction and/or other equitable relief as appropriate in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of an interim injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. Each restrictive covenant in this Section 6 (resulting from any combination of the wording in this Section 6, including the relevant definitions) constitutes a separate restrictive covenant that is severable from the other restrictive covenants. If any one or more provisions of this Section 6 shall for any reason be held to be void, voidable, unenforceable or illegal by a court or tribunal as to the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity or subject, because it goes beyond what is reasonable to protect the Company Group’s business or for any other reason, then that part will be severed and the other restrictive covenants will remain in full force and effect to the greatest extent permitted by law. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee where such engagement would breach the terms of this Agreement. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. The Grantee understands, acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee has been provided with an opportunity to seek independent legal advice before deciding whether or not to enter into this Agreement and that the Grantee has made the decision on the Grantee’s own accord to agree to the restrictive covenants contained within this Section 6 in exchange for the consideration that the Company is providing as outlined herein. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at


 
21 one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any). Tax Information: The following provisions replace Section 13 of the Agreement in its entirety: 13) Tax Information. The Plan is a plan to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Ctch) applies (subject to the conditions in that Act). Imposition of Other Requirements: 26) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Securities Law Information: 27) Securities Law Information. The grant of the Award is being made pursuant to Division 1A, Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). If the Grantee offers shares of Company Stock for sale to a person or entity resident in Australia, the offer may be subject to disclosure requirements under Australian law. The Grantee personally should obtain legal advice on applicable disclosure obligations prior to making any such offer. Belgium Award: The reference under Section 1 (Award) to Section 6 should be read as a reference to Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis and Sub-Section 6ter. Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5. Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group, and, in line with that position, has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes, but is not limited to, all Company Group’s trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and


 
22 supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s Service. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company Group, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not disclosed and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company Group; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than any member of the Company Group, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without any obligations of confidentiality attaching to such disclosure; or (4) is developed by the Grantee entirely on the Grantee’s own time without the Company Group’s equipment, supplies or facilities and does not relate at the time of conception to the Company Group’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development. Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6.1 Definitions: 6.1.1 “Restricted Period” means the period commencing on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Grantee’s Service terminates for any reason other than Retirement; (ii) the date when the Grantee commences garden leave; or (iii) in the event of termination of Service due to Retirement, the Vesting Date, and continuing for twelve (12) months thereafter. 6.2 Non-Solicitation and Disclosure. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company Group, whether as an agent or otherwise: (a) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact;


 
23 (b) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information; (c) Utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group; or (d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group to leave the employ of any member of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any employee of a member of the Company Group to leave the employ of such member of the Company Group or any company or entity of the WEX Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than a member of the Company Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by a member of the Company Group within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer. 6.3 Subject to the reporting of possible violations of the securities laws to the Belgian supervisory authority, the Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company Group, directly or through others, the Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company Group, to (i) any competitor of the Company Group, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company Group, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of any member of the Company Group, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against any member of the Company Group, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company Group (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company Group, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of any member of the Company Group and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of any member of the Company Group; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company Group (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to


 
24 any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against any member of the Company Group, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against any member of the Company Group, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or (iv) making any other demands of any member of the Company Group. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company Group with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. 6.4 The Grantee agrees that the Restricted Period will not apply to Sub-Section 6.3 and the Grantee’s obligations under Sub-Section 6.3 will continue in perpetuity. 6bis. Non-Competition. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s employment with the Company Group, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period , the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group, whether as an agent or otherwise: become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section (6bis), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s employment with the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. If notwithstanding the severability provisions in the Agreement, Sub-Section 6(bis) as set out above would be considered to be null and void, the Company, acting on behalf of the employer,


 
25 and the Grantee, agree to be bound by the following provision if the Grantee does not qualify as a sales representative (the “Belgian Alternative Provision 1”): 6bis. Non-Competition. In view of the employer’s international field of activity, after the Grantee has left the employer and even if the Grantee’s seniority would be inferior to six (6) months, except in case of termination of the employment by the Grantee for serious cause, the Grantee shall, during the Grantee’s employment with any member of the Company Group, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period, on the territory specified below, be prohibited from exercising similar activities, either by running a personal enterprise or by being hired or engaged by a competing employer and having thus the opportunity of causing a prejudice to the employer by using for himself/herself or for the profit of a competitor, the Grantee’s knowledge of any practice specific to the employer which the Grantee has acquired on an industrial or commercial level during the Grantee’s employment. The prohibition referred to in this Sub-Section 6bis applies to the territory of Belgium and the Netherlands. The Grantee accepts that this territory is automatically extended to the countries in which the Grantee would also be active in the last thirty-six (36) months prior to the day of termination of the employment. If the non-competition obligation of this Sub-Section 6bis applies, a one off and lump sum indemnity will be paid to the Grantee, unless the employer waives the application of this clause within fifteen (15) days following the termination of the employment. This indemnity will amount to half of the gross salary for the term of the effective application of the non-competition obligation. If the non-competition obligation of this Sub-Section 6bis applies and if the Grantee fails to comply with its provisions, the Grantee will reimburse to the employer the indemnity the Grantee received and, in addition thereto, the Grantee will pay an equivalent amount as damages, without prejudice to the employer’s right to claim any additional damages. If, notwithstanding the severability provisions in the Agreement, the Belgian Alternative Provision 1 would also be considered to be null and void, the Company, acting on behalf of the employer, and the Grantee, agree to be bound by the following provision if the Grantee does not qualify as a sales representative (the “Belgian Alternative Provision 2”): 6bis. Non-Competition. The Grantee undertakes, during the course of the employment relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months following the end of the employment, not to perform, in Belgium, any activities which are similar to those exercised by the Grantee at the employer, either in the framework of a competing activity for the Grantee's own account, or directly or indirectly for any competitor of the employer. If the non-competition obligation of this article applies, a one off and lump sum indemnity will be paid to the Grantee, unless the employer waives the application of this clause within fifteen (15) days following the termination of the employment. This indemnity will amount to half of the gross salary for the term of the effective application of the non-competition obligation. If the non-competition obligation of this article applies and if the Grantee fails to comply with its provisions, the Grantee will reimburse to the employer the indemnity the Grantee received and, in addition thereto, the Grantee will pay an equivalent amount as damages, without prejudice to the employer’s right to claim any additional damages.


 
26 The non-competition obligation of this article will have no effect in case of termination of the employment either during the first six (6) months of the employment, or, afterwards, by the employer for a reason other than serious cause, or by the Grantee for serious cause. If, notwithstanding the severability provisions in the Agreement, Sub-Section 6bis as set out above would be considered to be null and void, the Company, acting on behalf of the employer, and the Grantee, agree to be bound by the following provision if the Grantee qualifies as a sales representative (the “Belgian Alternative Provision 3”): 6bis. Non-Competition. During the course of the employment relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months following the end of the employment, the Grantee will be prohibited from exercising activities which are similar to the activities the Grantee exercises for the employer, within the working area in which the Grantee carried out the Grantee’s activities, either in the framework of a competing activity for the Grantee's own account, or directly or indirectly for any competitor of the employer. The prohibition set forth in this article will have no effect in case of termination of the employment either during the first six (6) months of the employment, or, afterwards, by the employer for a reason other than serious cause, or by the Grantee for serious cause. In case of breach of this non-competition obligation, the Grantee will have to pay a lump-sum indemnity of three (3) months gross remuneration to the employer, without prejudice to the employer’s right to claim higher damages based on the actually suffered loss. 6ter. Common provisions. The restrictions in Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company Group simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in the foregoing Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled. The restrictions in the foregoing Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in the foregoing Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis shall operate in any country in which the Company Group conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by a member of the Company Group. Existing Restrictions - The Company Group has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of employees of any member of the Company Group, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5, Section 6 or Sub-Section 6bis of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company


 
27 Group that is enforceable under applicable law. In case several provisions offer the same level of protection, the most recent one shall prevail. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Section 5, Section 6 or Sub-Section 6bis of this Agreement, the damages to the Company Group would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company Group shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6 or Sub-Section 6bis, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company Group, or until the Company Group states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. Disclosure - The Grantee agrees, during the period of twelve (12) months immediately following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, to disclose to the Company Group, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company Group no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. Communication - During the Grantee’s Service and for a period of at least twelve (12) months thereafter, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Section 5, Section 6 and Sub-Section 6bis before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company Group may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Section 5, Section 6, or Sub-Section 6bis of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company Group is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Section 5, Section 6, or Sub-Section 6bis are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Severability - If any one or more provisions of Section 5, Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis or Sub- Section 6ter shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Section 5, Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis or Sub-Section 6ter may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.


 
28 Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5, Section 6, Sub-Section 6bis or Sub-Section 6ter, upon termination of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company Group. It is explicitly agreed that, except for the paragraphs above on (i) Existing Restrictions, (ii) Disclosure, (iii) Communication and (iv) Severability, the provisions of Sub-Section 6ter do not apply in relation to the Belgian Alternative Provision 1 nor in relation to the Belgian Alternative Provision 2 nor in relation to the Belgian Alternative Provision 3. Withholding: The following provision supplements Section 8 of the Agreement: Section 8 shall be without prejudice to the applicable tax and social security obligations under Belgian law applying to the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company Group and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company Group at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's Service. Data Privacy: 26) Data Privacy. (a) The Company Group, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company Group in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company Group’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company Group collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process (es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company Group receives from the Grantee or the employer. (b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company Group will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company Group’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company Group to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+.


 
29 (c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company Group transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company Group with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company Group may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. (d) International Data Transfers. The Company Group and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company Group to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company Group contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company Group also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. (e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal.

33 days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer. 6B. Non-Competition. Subject to the “Additional Provisions” Section below, in exchange for the Award(s) of PRSUs to the Grantee, in accordance with the Plan, Memorandum and this Agreement, and any other related agreements, which the Grantee acknowledges and agrees to be reasonable and sufficient compensation for this Non-Competition covenant, and due to the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the latter of (y) twelve (12) months following the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company and (z) the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity) own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section 6B, a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted by the Grantee’s employer, during the Grantee’s employment with the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary or any other prior or subsequent employer of the same economic group, or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary or any other company of the same economic group, in Brazil or abroad, in or with which the Grantee has been involved or concerned to a material extent or, about which the Grantee received Confidential Information, at any time during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment. It includes, without limitation and to the extent applicable: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company Group, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its


 
34 subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business of the same line of business the Grantee was involved with, participated in, or acquired knowledge of while employed by the Company or its subsidiaries. As further compensation for the non-competition restriction imposed after the termination of employment, as described above, the Company or one of its subsidiaries agrees to pay the Grantee an amount equivalent to the Grantee’s last annual salary, payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments (one for each month of restriction). In the event of a termination due to Retirement, in which case the Grantee shall continue to be eligible to vest and be settled in accordance with schedule set forth in Sub-Sections 3(b) of this Agreement and as determined pursuant to Schedule 1, the parties hereby agree that such future vestings (which are not otherwise available in case of termination for reasons other than Retirement) are sufficient and reasonable compensation for the non-competition period that would start at the Retirement date and end the latter of (y) twelve (12) months following the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company and (z) the final Vesting Date. In the event the Grantee breaches the Grantee’s obligation to non-compete, the Company shall immediately stop making payments or allowing unvested RSUs to vest (i.e., all unvested RSUs will be forfeited), and may also seek any other remedies provided in this Agreement, by law and/or equity. The parties agree that the Company or the applicable subsidiary, at its sole discretion, shall have the right to reduce the post-termination non-compete period or waive the post-termination non- compete obligation of this Sub-Section 6B of the Grantee at the time the Company or its subsidiary gives notice of termination of employment to the Grantee, regardless of whether the termination is with or without cause, or within ten (10) calendar days of the Grantee’s resignation or Retirement. If the Company or its subsidiary decides to reduce the restrictive period, the post- termination compensation for such period, set forth in this Sub-Section 6B, will be reduced in the same proportion, and, if the Company or its subsidiary decides to waive the Grantee’s post- termination non-compete obligation, then the Grantee shall not be entitled to post-termination compensation, in whole or in part, as provided in this Sub-Section 6B, except that if the Grantee’s termination is due to Retirement, a partial or whole waiver of the non-compete shall not affect the Grantee’s entitlement to future vestings, as provided above. The Grantee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee has no expectation of a right to the payment described above, except if the Company or its subsidiary requires the Grantee to comply with the non-compete obligation and the Grantee so complies. The Grantee also acknowledges and agrees that the opportunity to participate in the Award and/or the compensation the Grantee may receive under this Sub-Section 6B is sufficient and fair compensation in exchange for the post-termination non-compete restrictions imposed. Governing Law and Venue: The following provision replaces Section 10, 11 and 12 of the Agreement in its entirety: This Agreement and the legal relations between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Brazil. Any disputes shall be brought to and adjudicated by the civil courts of Sao Paulo, SP, Brazil.

This Agreement may be amended at any time by the Board, provided that no amendment may, without the consent of the Grantee, materially and adversely affect the Grantee’s rights with respect to the Award.

Data Privacy: The following new Section 27 is added to the Agreement: 27. Data Privacy. (a) The Company, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process (es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Grantee or the Employer.


 
37 (b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in Brazil, and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of the Company and/or its subsidiary in granting to the Grantee the Awards. (c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. (d) International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States. By signing this Agreement, the Grantee provides consent to the international transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data and the processing of such Personal Data in accordance with this Section.

The Grantee may end the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw the Grantee’s consent to the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws the Grantee’s consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. Any Consent Withdrawal shall not affect the lawfulness of Processing based on consent before its withdrawal. The Company will continue to retain the information that the Grantee provided to the Company before the Grantee withdrew the Grantee’s consent for as long as allowed or required by applicable law. (f) Data Subjects Rights. Subject to the exceptions or limitations established by applicable Brazilian law or regulation, the Grantee has the right to: (a) request confirmation of the processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data; (b) request access to the Personal Data; (c) request the correction and/or update of the Personal Data; (d) request the anonymization, blocking or elimination of the Personal Data that is unnecessary, excessive or processed in violation of the

(g) Personal Data Retention. The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. (h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/. Canada Vesting of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units: The following provision supplements Section 2 of the Agreement: Where Awards are settled with shares of Common Stock that are not newly-issued, settlement of the Awards shall take place, at the latest, on or prior to December 31 of the calendar year which is three (3) years after the calendar year in which the performance of services, for which Awards are granted, occurred.

39 standards legislation. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Award, this Agreement or any other agreement (written or oral) to the contrary and except as may be required by applicable employment standards legislation, a) the Grantee shall not be entitled (and by accepting an Award, thereby irrevocably waives any such entitlement) to any payment or other benefit to compensate the Grantee for the loss of any rights under the Plan as a result of the termination or expiration of an Award in connection with any termination of employment (for any reason), on a pro-rata basis or otherwise, and whether under contract, common or civil law or otherwise and b) any payments made under the Plan or that would have been made but for the termination, shall not be included in any damages for wrongful dismissal at common or civil law nor in any damages for a lost opportunity to earn the incentive during a common or civil law reasonable notice period.

Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s Service.

Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain.


 
40 The provisions in this Agreement do not prohibit the Grantee from communicating with any governmental authority or making a report in good faith and with a reasonable belief of any violations of law or regulation to a governmental authority, or from testifying or participating in a legal proceeding relating to such violations, including making other disclosures protected or required by any whistleblower law or regulation to any appropriate government authority; provided expressly that the Grantee agrees to honor the confidentiality obligations in this Agreement and will only share Confidential and Proprietary Information with the Grantee’s lawyer or with the government agency or entity.

In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and (1) with respect to all Grantees based in Ontario, continuing thereafter until (Y) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company or (Z) in the event of a termination due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, in each case if the Grantee was classified by the Company in its human resources information system of record as being in an executive role (i.e. chief executive officer, president, chief administrative officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, chief information officer, chief legal officer, chief human resources officer or chief corporate development officer, or holds any other chief executive position) as of the Grantee’s last day of Service with the Company or (2) with respect to all other Grantees, (i) (Y) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company or (Z) in the event of termination due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, in each case if the Grantee was classified by the Company in its human resources information system of record as being in a Director-level role or above (e.g., Director, VP, SVP, CEO, etc.) as of the Grantee’s last day of Service with the Company, or (ii) (Y) six (6) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service with the Company or (Z) in the event of termination due to Retirement, six (6) months following the Vesting Date, in each case if the Grantee was classified by the Company in its human resources information system of record as being in a role below Director-level (e.g., Manager, Team Lead, Individual Contributor, etc.) as of the Grantee’s last day of Service with the Company, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company Group, whether as an agent or otherwise, become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise in the Restricted Area. For purposes of this Section, a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service with the Company or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by any member of the Company Group, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards (collectively the “Business”). For purposes of this Section, the “Restricted Area” is Canada. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the


 
43 Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Business simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with any member of the Company Group. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. 6C. Additional Provisions. The Company Group has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of the employees of any member of the Company Group, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company Group that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C of this Agreement, the damages to the Company Group would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable legal fees, the Company Group shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Sub-Sections 6A or 6B, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company Group, or until the Company Group states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B or Sub-Section 6C may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.


 
44 The Grantee agrees, subject to applicable law, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, or (ii) in the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Service due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company Group, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company Group no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, or (ii) in the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company Group may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company Group is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5, Sub-Section 6A, Sub-Section 6B and Sub-Section 6C, upon termination of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company Group.

The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. d) Personal data will be converted for the duration of the Plan’s holding period or for a longer holding period in order to meet legal requirements or to comply with rules relating to the statutory limitation period for claims. e) International Data Transfers.

The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. g) Data Subject Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence. For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and

If such a deletion applies to a definition, such deletion shall not apply to any other restriction, so that each definition is deemed to be repeated each time it is used. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to


 
59 the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. 6.2.7 The Grantee agrees to provide a copy of this Agreement to any employer or other person to whom or with whom the Grantee is intending to provide services within the Restricted Period before entering into any contractually binding agreement to perform such services. 6.2.8 Subject to any requirements under the General Data Protection Regulations, immediately after agreeing to provide services to any person during the Restricted Period, the Grantee will notify the Company of the identity of that person. 6.2.9 Upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company as a reminder and ratification of the Grantee undertaking to comply with the Grantee obligations under this agreement. 6.2.10 The Grantee acknowledges that the period of time, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company and any Group Company.

The Grantee agrees to execute any such documents as may be required to effectuate said benefit. 6B.5. Each of the restrictions contained in this Sub-Section 5B, each definition set out in Sub- Section 5A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub- Section or definition is intended to be an entirely separate, severable and independent


 
73 restriction, notwithstanding that they are combined together for the sake of brevity, and the Grantee agrees not to advance any argument to the contrary. In the event that any of the restrictions shall be held to be void or ineffective but would be valid and effective if some part of the wording thereof were deleted such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective. If such a deletion applies to a definition, such deletion shall not apply to any other restriction, so that each definition is deemed to be repeated each time it is used. 6B.6.

The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Employer and Group Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provisions replace Section 9 of the Agreement in its entirety: 9) No Rights to Continued Service. (a) Neither this Agreement nor the Award shall be construed as giving the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate such employment. (b) The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any). (c) The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of the Grantee’s office or employment with the Grantee’s employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which the Grantee may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of the Grantee’s office or employment with any such company for any reasons whatsoever (whether lawful or unlawful and including, without prejudice to the generality of the


 
74 foregoing, in circumstances giving rise to a claim for wrongful dismissal) insofar as those rights arise or may arise from the Grantee’s ceasing to have rights under the Plan or being entitled to this Award as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements. Governing Law: The following provisions replace Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. Save for taxation, which shall be governed by the laws of Ireland, this Agreement and the legal relations between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Section 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8) Tax Obligations. Regardless of any action the Company or the subsidiary that employs the Grantee (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, or other tax-related items related to the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items owed by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and that such amount may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant or vesting of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock, and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (ii) does not commit and is under no obligation to take any action or structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Grantee becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. Prior to vesting of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the Grantee shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company to withhold all applicable Tax- Related Items legally payable by the Grantee (i) from proceeds of the sale of the shares of Common Stock, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); and/or (ii) by the Company retaining a portion of the vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units to be settled. Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax- Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Grantee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Common


 
75 Stock, for tax purposes, the Grantee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for purposes of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue and deliver shares of Common Stock in payment of any earned and vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section 10. The following provisions replace Section 14 of the Agreement in its entirety: Nature of Award: 14. Nature of Award. By entering into this Agreement and accepting the grant of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units evidenced hereby, the Grantee acknowledges, understands, and agrees that: (a) the Grantee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; (b) this Award is made solely by the Company, and the Company is solely responsible for the administration of the Plan and the Grantee’s participation in the Plan; (c) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be terminated by the Company at any time, except as otherwise set forth in the Plan; (d) the grant of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units or benefits in lieu of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, even if such awards have been awarded in the past; (e) all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (f) this Award and the underlying shares of Common Stock, and the income from and value of same, are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; (g) this Award and the underlying shares of Common Stock, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any vacation, severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, or end-of-service payments; bonuses; long-service awards; pension, retirement, or welfare benefits; or similar payments; (h) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Performance-Based


 
76 Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out, or substituted, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Common Stock; (i) the value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is not fixed and may increase or decrease in value over the vesting period without compensation to the Grantee; (j) the future value of the shares of Common Stock that may be delivered in settlement of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (to the extent earned) is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted with certainty; (k) neither the Company, the Employer, nor any other subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, any payment made pursuant to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan; (l) the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or the Grantee’s acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock; and (m) the Grantee should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. The following provisions replace Section 16 of the Agreement in its entirety: Data Privacy: 26) Data Privacy. a) The Company, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process(es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Grantee or the Employer.

In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. d) International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.


 
78 f) Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence. For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data.

The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/.

During the Restricted Period, the Grantee undertakes to communicate, with a registered letter which must be sent to the Company, the exact indication and/or company name of all the subjects for whom the Grantee shall perform the Grantee’s activity and/or in which the Grantee shall assume responsibilities. These communications must be sent at the latest within the beginning of the activity and/or the assumption of the responsibility, in order to permit any control and defense of its legitimate rights by the Company. In case of non-fulfillment of the information obligations aforementioned, the Grantee shall pay to the Company a penalty equal to EUR 500,00 (five hundred/00), for each day of delay. While the Grantee is employed with the Company, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from


 
82 such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee during the mentioned periods. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. With respect to the obligations pointed out in this covenant, and as consideration for such undertakings, the Company will pay to the Grantee, on the date of termination of the relationship, for any reason whatsoever, an amount equal to thirty percent (30%) of the last gross annual salary. The Grantee irrevocably acknowledges that the above compensation for the non-competition covenant is fair and that the non-competition covenant is limited as to its purpose so that the Grantee shall be able to find an alternative job during the validity of such non-competition agreement and to exercise in full the Grantee’s professional skills. In the event of breach of this non-competition covenant, the Grantee shall pay, also as a penalty, an amount of money equal to the double of the amount agreed as compensation of the non- competition agreement, even if not cashed yet, any claim to obtain further compensation for damages suffered by the Company being freely operable. The payment of the penalty and/or of the compensation for further damages shall not cause the termination of this undertaking, which shall anyway preserve its validity until its natural expiry date. The Parties undertake not to ask for the reduction of the penalties, as provided for by section 1348 of the Italian Civil Code, remuneration, compensations mentioned in this Agreement that were agreed having considered the mutual financial interests. The potential invalidity and/or unlawfulness of one or more clauses of this covenant shall not entail the resolution or the voidability of the same; however, in every case of resolution or voidability or invalidity of this covenant, the Grantee shall be irrevocably obliged to the total restitution of the amount received under this covenant. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Section 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8) Tax Obligations. Regardless of any action the Company or the subsidiary that employs the Grantee (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account, or other tax-related items related to the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items owed by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and that such amount may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or the Employer. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the


 
83 treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant or vesting of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon settlement of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock, and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (ii) does not commit and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Grantee becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. Prior to vesting of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the Grantee shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company to withhold all applicable Tax- Related Items legally payable by the Grantee (i) from proceeds of the sale of the shares of Common Stock, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); and/or (ii) by the Company retaining a portion of the vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units to be settled. Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Grantee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Common Stock, for tax purposes, the Grantee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for purposes of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Company any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue and deliver shares of Common Stock in payment of any earned and vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax- Related Items as described in this Section 10. Additional Acknowledgments: 26) Additional Acknowledgments.

85 acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock; and (n) the Grantee should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. Imposition of Other Requirements: 27) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

For the purposes of this restriction, acts done by the Grantee outside the Restricted Area shall nonetheless be deemed to be done within the Restricted Area where their primary purpose is to distribute, sell, supply or otherwise deal with Restricted Goods or Restricted Services in the Restricted Area. 6B.2 Subject to the reporting of possible violations of the securities laws to the Dutch supervisory authority, the Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others, the Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with


 
92 respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. For the avoidance of doubt, the Restricted Period will not apply to this Sub- Section 6B.2, it being understood that the Grantee’s obligations will continue in perpetuity. 6B.3 The Employer has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Employer, (c) solicitation or hire of employees of the Employer, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5 or Sub-Section 6B of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to restrictions in this Agreement. 6B.4 The Grantee hereby agrees that the Grantee will at the request and cost of the Employer enter into a direct agreement or undertaking with any Group Company whereby the Grantee will accept restrictions and provisions corresponding to the restrictions and provisions in this Sub-Section 6B (or such of them as may be appropriate in the circumstances) in relation to such activities and such area and for such a period as such Group Company may reasonably require for the protection of its legitimate business interests. 6B.5 If the Grantee’s employment transfers by operation of law to a third party (the “Transferee”), this Sub-Section 6B shall with effect from that transfer of employment apply to the Grantee as if references to the Employer included the Transferee and references to any Group Company were construed accordingly, and as if the references to defined terms in respect of the Employer and any Group Company including but not limited to "Customer", "Prospective Customer" and "Critical Employee", applied to the customers, prospective customers and critical employees of the Transferee and their respective Group Companies. The Grantee agrees to execute any such documents as may be required to effectuate said benefit. 6B.6 Each of the restrictions contained in this Sub-Section 5B, each definition set out in Sub- Section 5A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub- Section or definition is intended to be an entirely separate, severable and independent restriction, notwithstanding that they are combined together for the sake of brevity, and the Grantee agrees not to advance any argument to the contrary. In the event that any


 
93 of the restrictions shall be held to be void or ineffective but would be valid and effective if some part of the wording thereof were deleted such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective. If such a deletion applies to a definition, such deletion shall not apply to any other restriction, so that each definition is deemed to be repeated each time it is used. 6B.7 The Grantee agrees, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restrictive Period, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. 6B.8 While the Grantee is employed with the Company, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. 6B.9 Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5, Sub-Section 5A and Sub-Section 5B, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provisions replace Section 9 of the Agreement in its entirety: 9) No Rights to Continued Service. a) Neither this Agreement nor the Award shall be construed as giving the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate such employment. b) The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value


 
94 of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any). c) The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of the Grantee’s office or employment with the Grantee’s employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which the Grantee may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of the Grantee’s office or employment with any such company for any reasons whatsoever (whether lawful or unlawful and including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, in circumstances giving rise to a claim for wrongful dismissal) insofar as those rights arise or may arise from the Grantee’s ceasing to have rights under the Plan or being entitled to this Award as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements. Governing Law: The following provisions replace Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. Save for taxation, which shall be governed by the law of the Netherlands, this Agreement and the legal relations between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Sections 8 and 13 of the Agreement in their entirety: 8) Tax Obligations. As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for the payment of applicable Dutch wage taxes, social security premiums and any other taxes required to be withheld payable in connection with the vesting of an Award. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to remit to the Company or any applicable subsidiary an amount sufficient to pay such taxes. Such payment shall be made to the Company or the applicable subsidiary of the Company in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may retain and withhold from delivery at the time of vesting that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the taxes owed by the Grantee, which retained shares shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on behalf of the Grantee. Further to the above, the Grantee agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Employer and all Group Companies in respect of any income tax and National Insurance liability which fails to be paid to the Dutch tax authorities by the Company or the Employer in connection with the grant, vesting or cancellation of the Award or the acquisition or other dealing in the shares of Common Stock acquired. Severability: Section 20 of the Agreement does not apply. Insider Trading Restrictions: 26) Insider Trading Restrictions.


 
95 (a) By accepting the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and participating in the Plan, the Grantee acknowledges that Grantee is subject to insider trading restrictions, which may affect the Grantee’s ability to acquire or sell shares of Common Stock under the Plan during such times as the Grantee is considered to have “inside information”. (b) More specific, under Article 14 of the Market Abuse Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on market abuse) and the Financial Supervision Act, anyone who has “inside information” related to an issuing company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the Netherlands. “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of details concerning the issuing company to which the securities relate, which is not public and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the stock price, regardless of the development of the price. (c) Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. (d) The Grantee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and the Grantee is advised to speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter. Data Privacy: 27) Data Privacy. a) The Company, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process (es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Grantee or the Employer. b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the


 
96 future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. d) International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. f) Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence. For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding the Grantee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Grantee should refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/ and contact his or her local human resources department. g) Personal Data Retention. The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/.


 
97 Language: 28) Language. The Grantee warrants and represents that the Grantee is fluent in English and fully and unmistakably understands the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If the Grantee has received this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version differs from the English version, the English version shall control. Imposition of Other Requirements: 29) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 30) Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations. By accepting the Award, the Grantee acknowledges, understands and agrees that: a) the future value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Award is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; b) neither the Company, the Employer, nor any other subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Award, any payment made pursuant to the Award, or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan; and c) the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding participation in the Plan or the acquisition or sale of the shares of Common Stock. The Grantee should consult with his or her personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. New Zealand Warning This is an offer of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units in WEX Inc. Upon their vesting (as further set out in this document) as Common Stock, Common Stock gives you a stake in the ownership of WEX Inc. You may receive a return on Common Stock if dividends are paid. If WEX Inc. runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, you will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares have been paid. You may lose some or all of your investment. New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share purchase scheme. As a result, you may not be given all the information usually required. You will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment.


 
98 Ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing yourself. The Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units themselves are not quoted and are not transferable. You are not able to sell Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. However, upon vesting in accordance with these terms, the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units will be vested as shares of Common Stock. Common Stock is quoted on the New York Stock Exchange. This means you may be able to sell your vested Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange if there are interested buyers. You may get less than you invested. The price will depend on the demand for the Common Stock. Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Section 4 of the Agreement in its entirety: 4. Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company, and in line with that position has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes but is not limited to all Company and/or its subsidiaries’ trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company and/or its subsidiaries, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of his/her employment. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company, and hereby represents that he/she has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that he/she has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of his/her employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company and/or its subsidiaries; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than the Company, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without any obligations of confidentiality attaching to such disclosure; or (4) is developed by the Grantee entirely on his/her own time without the Company’s (and/or its subsidiaries’) equipment, supplies or facilities and does not relate at the time of conception to the Company’s (and/or its subsidiaries’) business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development. Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation:


 
99 The following provisions replace Section 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to him/her, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries and for the Restraint Period following the termination of his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries for any reason, he/she shall not, on behalf of the Grantee him/herself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise: (a) Contact, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company and/or its subsidiaries, where such prospective customers, clients and/or patrons were in negotiations with the Company, and with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had direct business dealings; (b) Contact, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company and/or its subsidiaries, where such prospective customers, clients and/or patrons were in negotiations with the Company, whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee had access to and contact with as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (c) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group, with whom the Grantee had a business relationship and/or dealings, to leave the employ of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company Group become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company Group; (d) In the Restraint Area, become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity) own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section 5(d), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s employment with the Company, or its subsidiaries, and of which the Grantee was aware. It includes,


 
100 without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. Furthermore, the restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Company Group Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company; and/or (e) Subject to Section 5, and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) to the extent permitted by law, aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of


 
101 its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Period” means: (1) Twelve (12) months from the Grantee’s last day of employment with the Company, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (2) Nine (9) months from the Grantee’s last day of employment with the Company, or if a court holds this period to be unreasonable or invalid, then: (3) Six (6) months from the Grantee’s last day of employment with the Company. For the purposes of this Section 6, “Restraint Area" means: (1) New Zealand, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then: (2) Auckland and/or any other region and/or location in which the Company or any other company in the WEX group conducts business during the Grantee’s employment with the Company and in which the Grantee was involved and/or had knowledge of Confidential and Proprietary Information in respect of, or if a court holds this geographical scope to be unreasonable or invalid for any reason, then; (3) Auckland. For the purposes of this Section 6, the parties understand and agree that the “Company” means WEX Inc. and any of its holding or subsidiary companies as defined by the Companies Act 1993 (NZ) as amended from time to time. The Company Group have previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions, rather than the Restrictions contained in this Section 6. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6, the damages to the Company and its subsidiaries would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to penalties, monetary damages and interest and/or legal costs, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of an interim injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent


 
102 permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. The parties undertake and agree that the restrictive covenants outlined in Section 6 constitute a reasonable bargain between the parties for the consideration that will be provided by the Company in exchange for the Grantee entering into the restrictive covenants as outlined. Each restrictive covenant in this Section 6 (resulting from any combination of the wording in this Section 6, including the relevant definitions) constitutes a separate restrictive covenant that is severable from the other restrictive covenants. If any one or more provisions of this Section 6 shall for any reason be held to be unreasonable, void, voidable, unenforceable or illegal by a court or tribunal as to the Restraint Period, Restraint Area, activity or subject, because it goes beyond what is reasonable to protect the Company and its business or for any other reason, then the parties specifically agree that in accordance with section 83 of the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017 (NZ) as amended from time to time, the offensive part will be severed and the other restrictive covenants will remain in full force and effect to the greatest extent permitted by law or a court may modify the provision to the extent that it would be deemed reasonable in order to give effect to the terms of the restrictive covenant so modified. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that a court may modify provision contained within this Section 6 notwithstanding that such a modification cannot be effected by the deletion of words from the provision. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee where such engagement would breach the terms of this Agreement. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. The Grantee understands, acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee has been provided with an opportunity to seek independent legal advice before deciding whether or not to enter into this Agreement and that the Grantee has made the decision on the Grantee’s own accord to agree to the restrictive covenants contained within this Section 6 in exchange for the consideration that the Company is providing as outlined herein. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provision supplements Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any).


 
103 Imposition of Other Requirements: 26) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 27) Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations. By accepting the Award, the Grantee acknowledges, understands and agrees that: a) the future value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Award is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; b) neither the Company, the Employer, nor any other subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Award, any payment made pursuant to the Award, or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan; and c) the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding participation in the Plan or the acquisition or sale of the shares of Common Stock. The Grantee should consult with his or her personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. Singapore The Grantee is employed by WEX Asia Pte Ltd (the “Employer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (each a “Group Company” and collectively, with all other subsidiaries of the Company, the “Group Companies”).

110 Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect first to the restrictions in this Agreement. 6G. The Grantee hereby agrees that the Grantee will at the request and cost of the Employer enter into a direct agreement or undertaking with any Group Company whereby the Grantee will accept restrictions and provisions corresponding to the restrictions and provisions in the Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Sections (or such of them as may be appropriate in the circumstances) in relation to such activities and such area and for such a period as such Group Company may reasonably require for the protection of its legitimate business interests. 6H. Each of the restrictions contained in this Section 6, each definition set out in Sub- Section 6A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub- Section or definition is intended to be an entirely separate, severable and independent restriction, notwithstanding that they are combined together for the sake of brevity, and the Grantee agrees not to advance any argument to the contrary.

The Grantee warrants that the Grantee will provide a copy of the “Singapore” section of Exhibit A to any employer or other person to whom or with whom the Grantee is intending to provide services or enter into employment within the Restricted Period, and that the Grantee will do so before entering into any contractually binding agreement to perform such services or enter into employment.

The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Employer and Group Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provisions supplement Section 9 of the Agreement: The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected


 
111 compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract (if any). The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of the Grantee’s office or employment with the Grantee’s employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which the Grantee may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of the Grantee’s office or employment with any such company for any reasons whatsoever (whether lawful or unlawful and including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, in circumstances giving rise to a claim for wrongful dismissal) insofar as those rights arise or may arise from the Grantee’s ceasing to have rights under the Plan or being entitled to this Award as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements. Governing Law: The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law.

The Company and the Grantee hereby consent to service of process in any such proceeding, and agree that service of process by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at the Grantee’s address specified pursuant to Section 15 is reasonably calculated to give actual notice. Severability:


 
112 Section 20 of the Agreement does not apply. Electronic Delivery and Acceptance: The following provision replaces Section 25 of the Agreement in its entirety: 25) Electronic Delivery and Acceptance.

The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. Director Notification Obligation: 26) CEO / Director Notification Obligation. If the Grantee is a Chief Executive Officer (CEO), director (as defined under the Companies Act 1967), associate director, or shadow director (each of which, a “Director”) of the Employer, the Grantee is subject to certain notification requirements under the Companies Act 1967. The Grantee is obliged to notify the Employer in writing of any interest the Grantee has in any Group Company, including any interest in shares, debentures, participatory interests, rights, options, and contracts in relation to the Performance- Based Restricted Stock Units entitling the Grantee to Common Stock. The Grantee must notify the Company of such interest(s) within two (2) business days after (i) becoming a CEO or Director or (ii) becoming a registered holder of or acquiring an interest in the same, whichever is later.

In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan.

The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan. f) Data Subjects Rights.

For the purposes of this Section 6, acts done by the Grantee outside the Restricted Area shall nonetheless be deemed to be done within the Restricted Area where their primary purpose is to distribute, sell, supply or otherwise deal with Restricted Goods or Restricted Services in the Restricted Area. The restrictions imposed in Sub- Sections 5B and 5C of this Agreement apply to the Grantee acting: (i) directly or indirectly; and (ii) on the Grantee’s own behalf or on behalf of, or in conjunction with, any firm, company or person. 6E. This Section 6 shall not prevent the Grantee from: 6E.1. holding a Permitted Investment; or 6E.2. being engaged in or rendering services to, any business concern during the Restricted Period, provided that the Grantee’s duties or work shall 6E.2.1. relate solely to services or activities of a kind with which the Grantee (or an employee under the Grantee’s direct supervision) was not concerned to a material extent during the Relevant Period; and 6E.2.2. there is no risk of conscious or subconscious direct or indirect transmission of Confidential Information or trade secrets. 6F. The Employer has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Employer, (c) solicitation or hire of employees of the Employer, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect first to the enforceable restrictions in this Agreement.


 
131 6G. The Grantee hereby agrees that the Grantee will at the request and cost of the Employer enter into a direct agreement or undertaking with any Group Company whereby the Grantee will accept restrictions and provisions corresponding to the restrictions and provisions in Sections 5 and 6 (or such of them as may be appropriate in the circumstances) in relation to such activities and such area and for such a period as such Group Company may reasonably require for the protection of its legitimate business interests. 6H. If the Grantee’s employment transfers by operation of law to a third party (the “Transferee”), Sections 5 and 6 shall with effect from that transfer of employment apply to the Grantee as if references to the Employer included the Transferee and references to any Group Company were construed accordingly, and as if the references to defined terms in respect of the Employer and any Group Company including but not limited to "Customer", "Prospective Customer" and "Critical Employee", applied to the customers, prospective customers and critical employees of the Transferee and their respective Group Companies. The Grantee agrees to execute any such documents as may be required to effectuate said benefit. 6I. Each of the restrictions contained in this Section 6, each definition set out in Sub-Section 5A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub-Section or definition is intended to be an entirely separate, severable and independent restriction, notwithstanding that they are combined together for the sake of brevity, and the Grantee agrees not to advance any argument to the contrary. In the event that any of the restrictions shall be held to be void or ineffective but would be valid and effective if some part of the wording thereof were deleted such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective. If such a deletion applies to a definition, such deletion shall not apply to any other restriction, so that each definition is deemed to be repeated each time it is used. 6J. The Grantee warrants that s/he will provide a copy of this Agreement to any employer or other person to whom or with whom the Grantee is intending to provide services or enter into employment within the Restricted Period, and that the Grantee will do so before entering into any contractually binding agreement to perform such services or enter into employment. 6K. Immediately after agreeing to provide services to or enter into employment with any third party during the Restricted Period, the Grantee will notify the Employer of the identity of that third party. 6L. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Employer. 6M. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Employer and Group Company. No Rights to Continued Service: The following provisions supplement Section 9 of the Agreement:


 
132 The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of an Award in one (1) year or at one time does not in any way entitle the Grantee to an Award in the future. The Plan is wholly discretionary and is not to be considered part of the Grantee's normal or expected compensation subject to severance, resignation, redundancy, or similar compensation. The value of the Award is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of the Grantee's employment contract. The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of the Grantee’s office or employment with the Grantee’s employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which the Grantee may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of the Grantee’s office or employment with any such company for any reasons whatsoever (whether lawful or unlawful and including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, in circumstances giving rise to a claim for wrongful dismissal) insofar as those rights arise or may arise from the Grantee’s ceasing to have rights under the Plan or being entitled to this Award as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements. Governing Law The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. Save for taxation and the Sections which have been replaced or amended for the United Kingdom as set forth herein (Sections 5, 6, 10, 13, 26, 27, 28, 29) which shall be governed by the laws of England and Wales, this Agreement and the legal relations between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. Consent to Jurisdiction: The following provision replaces Section 11 of the Agreement in its entirety: 11) Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee, by the Grantee’s execution hereof, (a) hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware for the purposes of any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof, save for any claim or action arising out of or based upon the “United Kingdom” section of Exhibit A of this Agreement, which each party irrevocably agrees to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts (b) hereby waive, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such claim or action, any claim that the Grantee is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the Grantee’s property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such proceeding brought in the above-named court is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court and (c) hereby agree not to commence any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof other than before the above-named courts nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such claim or action to any court other than the above-named courts whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise; provided, however, that the Company and the Grantee may


 
133 seek to enforce a judgment issued by the above-named courts in any proper jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee hereby consent to service of process in any such proceeding, and agree that service of process by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at the Grantee’s address specified pursuant to Section 15 is reasonably calculated to give actual notice. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Section 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8) Tax Obligations. As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for the payment of UK income tax and employee's primary Class 1 national insurance contribution liabilities (and any other taxes required to be withheld) payable in connection with the vesting of an Award. Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to remit to the Company or any applicable subsidiary an amount sufficient to pay such taxes. Such payment shall be made to the Company or the applicable subsidiary of the Company in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company, as the Company may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may retain and withhold from delivery at the time of vesting that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the taxes owed by the Grantee, which retained shares shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on behalf of the Grantee. Further to the above, the Grantee agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer in respect of any income tax liability which falls to be paid to UK HM Revenue & Customs ("HMRC") by the Company or the Employer under the Income Tax (Earnings & Pensions) Act 2003 ("ITEPA") and the PAYE regulations referred to in it, and any employees' primary Class 1 national insurance contributions which fall to be paid to HMRC by the Company or the Employer under the PAYE system as it applies for national insurance purposes under the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 and the regulations referred to in it arising in connection with the grant, vesting or cancellation of the Award or the acquisition or other dealing in the shares of Common Stock acquired. If so required by the Company, and if the shares subject to the Award are considered to be "restricted securities" for the purposes of Part 7, Chapter 2 ITEPA (such determination to be made by the Company in its absolute discretion), settlement of the Award will be conditional on the Grantee executing a joint election pursuant to section 431 ITEPA together with the Employer in order to elect that the market value of the shares subject to the Award be calculated as if such shares were not "restricted securities". Electronic Delivery and Acceptance: The following provision replaces Section 25 of the Agreement in its entirety: 25) Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. Data Privacy: 26) Data Privacy


 
134 a) The Company, in its capacity as Controller, grants Awards under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s grant of the Award under the Plan and its ongoing administration of such awards, the Company collects, uses and otherwise processes (“Process (es)(ing)”) the Grantee’s personal data (“Personal Data”), including the Grantee’s name, home address, email address, and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Awards or any other equity compensation awards granted, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Grantee or the Employer. b) Data Collection, Processing and Usage. In granting the Award under the Plan, the Company will Process the Grantee’s Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the Processing of the Grantee’s Personal Data is the necessity for the Company to (i) perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement, (ii) comply with legal obligations established in the European Union, European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. c) Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”). In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan. The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. d) International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States. The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States. In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators. The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent. e) Voluntariness and Consequences of Failure to Perform Under the Agreement, Consent Denial or Consent Withdrawal. The Grantee’s participation in the Plan and his or her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his or her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his or her consent to the transfer of his or her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his or her consent, the Grantee may be unable to participate in the Plan. This will not affect the Grantee’s existing employment or salary; instead, the Grantee merely may forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.


 
135 f) Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence. For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding the Grantee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Grantee should refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/ and contact their local human resources department. g) Personal Data Retention. The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on i) purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and used, which may differ depending on the nature of the Personal Data and the activities involved, ii) the length of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or iii) whether there are legal obligations to which either the Company or the Grantee are subject. h) For more information on how the Company processes the Grantee’s Personal Data, please refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal- notices/. Imposition of Other Requirements: 27) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, on the Award and on any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require the Grantee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Electronic Delivery and Acceptance: 28) Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 29) Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations. By accepting the Award, the Grantee acknowledges, understands and agrees that: a) the future value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Award is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; b) neither the Company, the Employer, nor any other subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee’s local currency and the United States Dollar that


 
136 may affect the value of the Award, any payment made pursuant to the Award, or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan; and c) the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding participation in the Plan or the acquisition or sale of the shares of Common Stock. The Grantee should consult with his or her personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. Rights of Third Parties: 30) Rights of Third Parties.

If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The restrictions in this Section shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach.


 
139 If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

140 the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer- specific trade secret information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company trade secrets; (b) During the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, utilize the Company Group’s trade secrets to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company; (c) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; (d) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the subject matter of the Grantee’s Service or relating to the Company’s business; (e) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Section 6(e), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar


 
141 business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company Group simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section 6 will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section 6 shall operate in any country in which the Company Group conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by a member of the Company Group; and/or (f) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or


 
142 could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. If Grantee earns from the Company an amount of annualized cash compensation equivalent to or greater than the threshold amount for highly compensated workers, as adjusted annually by the Colorado Division of Labor Standards and Statistics in the Department of Labor and Employment (for 2025, $127,091), then Sub-Section 6(e) shall apply both during the term of Grantee’s Service and for a period of one year thereafter. If Grantee earns from the Company an amount of annualized cash compensation equivalent to or greater than sixty-percent of the threshold amount for highly compensated workers, as adjusted annually by the Colorado Division of Labor Standards and Statistics in the Department of Labor and Employment (for 2025, $76,255), then Sub-Sections 6(a) and 6(b) shall apply both during the term of Grantee’s Service and for a period of one year thereafter. Grantee stipulates that the non-competition and customer non-solicitation covenants in Sub-Sections 6(a), 6(b) and 6(c) are reasonable and necessary for the protection of trade secrets within the meaning of the Colorado Noncompete Act. The restrictions in this Section shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s and its subsidiaries’ businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part


 
143 of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties.

The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits disclosure of information that arises from Grantee’s general training, knowledge, skill, or experience, whether gained on the job or otherwise, information that is readily ascertainable to the public, or information that Grantee otherwise has a right to disclose as legally protected conduct. Nothing in this Agreement or in any Company policy limits or prevents Grantee from disclosing information about workplace health and safety practices or


 
144 hazards, or limits or affects Grantee’s right to disclose or discuss sexual harassment or sexual assault disputes. Nothing in this Agreement limits the ability of an employee or prospective employee to disclose or discuss, either orally or in writing, any alleged discriminatory or unfair employment practices. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

Consent to Jurisdiction: The following is added to the end of Section 11: Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will require Grantee to adjudicate outside of Colorado the enforceability of a covenant not to compete or require that another state’s law other than Colorado law govern the enforceability of a covenant not to compete that applies to Grantee.

The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer.

The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit Grantee from disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that Grantee has reason to believe is unlawful.

If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly


 
150 provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The restrictions in this Section shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. Further, nothing in this Agreement or any Company policy restricts Grantee from having additional outside employment or contract work so long as the outside work does not result in disclosure or use of confidential Company information or proprietary Company information, violate Grantee’s duty of loyalty, or create a conflict of interest. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.


 
151 The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. United States - Illinois Only The following provisions are added to the end of Section 6: The provisions of Sub-Section 6(e) shall only apply if the Grantee’s actual or expected annualized rate of earnings exceeds the amount required by 820 ILCS 90/10(a). The provisions of Sub- Sections 6(a), 6(b), 6(c) and 6(d) shall only apply if the Grantee’s actual or expected annualized rate of earnings exceeds the amount required by 820 ILCS 90/10(b). The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee had at least fourteen (14) days to consider this Agreement before being required to sign it and if the Grantee signed it before the expiration of the fourteen (14) day period, the Grantee did so of the Grantee’s own volition and waived the remainder of the fourteen (14) day consideration period. The Company advises the Grantee to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement, and the Grantee acknowledges that Grantee has been so advised. The Grantee further acknowledges that the promises and benefits provided by the Company to the Grantee constitute professional or financial benefits which are adequate consideration by themselves to support the covenants contained in Section 6.

United States - Massachusetts Only Non-Competition The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6) Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter (1) with respect to Sub-Sections 5(a) through 5(d), (i) until twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, until twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, (2) with respect to Sub- Section 6(e), until twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason and (3) with respect to Sub-Section 6(f), in perpetuity, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise: (a) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact; (b) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (c) Utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company; (d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or take any action to assist


 
153 any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; (e) Become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise.

The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which


 
154 the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company’s grant and provision of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, to which the Grantee would not be entitled absent execution of this Agreement, constitute fair, reasonable, and mutually agreed upon consideration to support this Sub-Section 6(e). This Sub-Section 6(e), only, shall not apply if the Grantee is terminated without Cause or laid off. For purposes of this Sub-Section 6(e), only, the term “Cause” shall mean willful misconduct by the Grantee or willful failure by the Grantee to perform his or her responsibilities to the Company (including, without limitation, breach by the Grantee of any provision of any employment, consulting, advisory, nondisclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company), as determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. The Grantee’s employment shall be considered to have been terminated for Cause if the Company determines, within thirty (30) days after the Grantee’s termination, that termination for Cause was warranted; and/or (f) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing


 
155 Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach; except that the duration of the covenants contained in Sub-Section 6(e), only, shall extend to twenty-four (24) months if the Grantee breached his or her fiduciary duty to the Company and/or if the Grantee has unlawfully taken, physically or electronically, property belonging to the Company. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make


 
156 such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity.

If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. In the event Grantee’s employment is terminated as a result of a layoff, this Sub-Section 6(d) will not be enforced by the Company. If Grantee is a new hire, Grantee acknowledges that the terms of this Agreement were disclosed to Grantee in writing no later than the time of the acceptance of the offer of employment. If Grantee is a current employee, Grantee acknowledges that this Agreement provides, and Grantee has received, good, valuable, sufficient and independent consideration for this Sub-section 6(d); and/or (e) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly


 
159 directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of


 
160 a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Governing Law: The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action or other matters that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation thereof to the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. If the laws of the State of Washington apply to the


 
161 Grantee, then nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to deprive the Grantee of the protections or benefits of the Washington Noncompete Act (RCW §§49.62.005 – 900), or allows or requires the application of choice of law principles or the substantive law of any jurisdiction other than Washington state for any noncompetition covenant. Consent to Jurisdiction: The following is added to the end of Section 11: If the laws of the State of Washington apply to the Grantee, then nothing in this Agreement shall require the Grantee to adjudicate a noncompetition covenant outside of the State of Washington. Grantee understands that nothing in this Agreement or in any Company policy prevents Grantee from discussing or disclosing conduct, or the existence of a settlement involving conduct, that Grantee reasonably believed to be illegal discrimination, illegal harassment, illegal retaliation, a wage and hour violation, or sexual assault, or that is recognized as illegal under state, federal, or common law, or that is recognized as against a clear mandate of public policy, where the conduct occurred at the workplace, at work-related events coordinated by or through the employer, between employees, or between an employer and an employee, whether on or off the employment premises; provided, however, that Grantee remains subject to any obligation to keep confidential the amount paid in settlement of any claim.

Amended and Restated 2019 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan. WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Plan (the prospectus of which was provided to the Grantee), which is incorporated herein by reference and made part of this Agreement; WHEREAS, the Board has the authority under the Plan to grant Awards to eligible service providers of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company Group”); and WHEREAS, the Board has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to grant the Award provided for herein to the Grantee pursuant to the Plan and this Agreement. NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual convents hereinafter set forth, the Company and the Grantee agree as follows: 1) Award. Subject to (i) the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Grantee’s agreement to comply with the obligations set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 below) and (ii) the Grantee’s acknowledgement of the Memorandum, the Company hereby grants the Grantee the number of Market Share Units set forth in the Memorandum (the “MSUs”). 2) Vesting. Subject to Section 3(a) and Section 3(c), on each of the first three anniversaries of the Date of Grant (each, a “Vesting Date”), the number of MSUs that shall vest, if any, shall equal the product of (i) one-third of the MSUs and (ii) the Common Stock Price (as defined below) on the Vesting Date divided by the Common Stock Price on the Date of Grant (clause (ii), the “Payout Factor”); provided, that (a) if the Payout Factor is less than 0.6, no MSUs shall vest on the applicable Vesting Date and (b) the maximum Payout Factor shall be 2.0; provided, further, that vesting on each Vesting Date shall be subject to (I) the Grantee’s continued Service (as defined below) on the applicable Vesting Date or (II) the Grantee’s Retirement prior to such Vesting Date in accordance with and subject to Section 3(b). Any MSUs eligible to vest on a Vesting Date that do not vest under this Section 2 shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration. 3) Termination; Change in Control. a) Death.

If the Grantee fails to satisfy the Release Requirement, outstanding MSUs shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration and the Board may require the Grantee to immediately remit to the Company any shares of Common Stock (or the fair market value thereof (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) to the extent the Grantee no longer holds the shares of Common Stock) issued in respect of the MSUs following and as a result of the Grantee’s Retirement, and the Company shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing its rights pursuant to this Section 3(b)(i). ii) Notwithstanding Section 3(b)(i), if (x) the Company receives a legal opinion stating that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in the Grantee’s jurisdiction that likely would result in Section 3(b)(i) or vesting following Retirement being deemed unlawful or in violation of Section 409A, or (y) any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 are held by any court or governmental authority (or otherwise deemed) to be void, unlawful or unenforceable with respect to the Grantee, then the provisions herein relating to the Grantee’s Retirement shall be null and void ab initio and the MSUs shall be subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement. If the Grantee has already received shares of Common Stock following and as a result of the Grantee’s Retirement, the Board may require the Grantee to immediately remit to the Company any such shares of Common Stock (or the fair market value thereof (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) to the extent the Grantee no longer holds the shares of Common Stock), and the Company shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing its rights pursuant to this Section 3(b)(ii). iii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means a termination of the Grantee’s Service following Notice (as defined below) other than a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause or where grounds for a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause exist; provided that at the time of such Notice the Grantee has satisfied one (or more) of the following: (x) attainment of at least fifty-five (55) years of age and ten (10) full years of continuous Service, (y) attainment of at least sixty (60) years of age and five (5) full years of continuous Service or (z) attainment of at least sixty-five (65) years of age and two (2) full years of continuous Service, in each case, as determined by the Company’s HRIS.

3 c) Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, to the extent not previously forfeited, a number of MSUs, if any, shall vest equal to the product of (x) the Target number of MSUs set forth in the Memorandum (less one-third of the Target for each Vesting Date that has occurred prior to such Change in Control) and (y) the Common Stock Price on the Change in Control divided by the Common Stock Price on the Date of Grant (clause (y), the “CIC Payout Factor”); provided, that (I) if the CIC Payout Factor is less than 0.6, no MSUs shall vest on the Change in Control, (II) the maximum CIC Payout Factor shall be 2.0 and (III) the MSUs that vest pursuant to this Section 3(c) shall be deemed allocable to the remaining Vesting Dates in substantially equal installments; provided, further, that vesting upon a Change in Control shall be subject to (A) the Grantee’s continued Service on the Change in Control or (B) the Grantee’s Retirement prior to such Change in Control in accordance with and subject to Section 3(b). Any unvested MSUs that do not vest under this Section 3(c) upon a Change in Control shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration. d) Other Terminations. Except as otherwise provided under Section 2 or Section 3 of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason, any MSUs that have not vested as of such termination shall be forfeited immediately, automatically and without consideration (unless the Board, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise). A termination of Service shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Grantee ceases to perform active employment duties for the Company Group, regardless of any notice period, salary continuation period or other severance period. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, this Agreement or any other agreement between any member of the Company Group and the Grantee to the contrary, the Grantee shall not be entitled to any compensation for the loss of any rights under the Plan or this Agreement as a result of the termination of the Grantee’s Service. e) Definitions. For purposes of the Agreement, i) “Common Stock Price” shall mean the volume weighted average price per share of Common Stock over the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of determination; provided that on or following a Change in Control, the Common Stock Price shall mean the price per share of Common Stock implied by such Change in Control. ii) “Service” means providing services as an active employee, to, or for the benefit of, any member of the Company Group. 4) Settlement. Vested MSUs shall be settled on or within thirty (30) days following the earliest of (i) the Vesting Date applicable to such vested MSUs, (ii) the Grantee's death and (iii) a termination of the Grantee’s Service by a member of the Company Group (including any acquirer or successor) without Cause or by the Grantee for Good Reason, in each case, during the one-year period following a Change in Control that would constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A. Upon settlement, the Company shall deliver to the Grantee, for each vested MSU, one (1) share of Common Stock, subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Board. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered and any fractions shall be rounded down.


 
4 5) Confidential and Proprietary Information. a) The Grantee acknowledges that in connection with the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee is placed in a position of confidence and trust with the Company Group and in line with that position has and will continue to have access to information of a nature not generally disclosed to the public. The Grantee agrees to keep confidential and not: (i) use or (ii) disclose to anyone any Confidential and Proprietary Information, except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group, as required by law or as authorized by the Board of Directors. “Confidential and Proprietary Information” includes but is not limited to all the Company Group’s trade secrets, business and strategic plans, financial details, computer programs, manuals, contracts, current and prospective client and supplier lists, and all other documentation, business knowledge, data, material, property and supplier lists, and developments owned, possessed or controlled by the Company Group, regardless of whether possessed or developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s Service. Such Confidential and Proprietary Information may or may not be designated as confidential or proprietary and may be oral, written or electronic media. The Grantee understands that such information is owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company Group, and hereby represents that the Grantee has not and will not disclose, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any Confidential and Proprietary Information. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has complied and will continue to comply with this commitment, both as an employee and after the termination of the Grantee’s Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential and Proprietary Information does not include any information that: (1) is already in the public domain or becomes available to the public through no breach by the Grantee of this Agreement; (2) was lawfully in the Grantee’s possession prior to disclosure to the Grantee by the Company Group; (3) is lawfully disclosed to the Grantee by a third party (other than any member of the Company Group, or any of its representatives, agents or employees) without any obligations of confidentiality attaching to such disclosure; (4) is developed by the Grantee entirely on the Grantee’s own time without the Company Group’s equipment, supplies or facilities and does not relate at the time of conception to the Company Group’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development; or (5) is lawfully acquired by a non-supervisory employee about wages, hours or other terms and conditions of employment when used for purposes protected by §7 of the National Labor Relations Act such as discussing wages, benefits or terms and conditions of employment, or other legally protected concerted activity for mutual aid or protection of laborers. Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain merely because any part of said information is embodied in general disclosures or because individual features, components, or combinations thereof are now or become known to the public or are in the public domain. b) The provisions in this Agreement do not prohibit the Grantee from communicating with any governmental authority or making a report in good faith and with a reasonable belief of any violations of law or regulation to a governmental authority, or from testifying or participating in a legal proceeding relating to such violations, including providing documents or information or making other disclosures protected or required by any whistleblower law or regulation to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Department of Labor, or any other appropriate government authority. This may include disclosure of trade secret or confidential information within the limitations permitted by the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA). The Grantee understands, agrees and acknowledges that under the DTSA, (1) no individual will be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade


 
5 secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret (as defined in the Economic Espionage Act) that: (A) is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public; and (2) an individual who pursues a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of the law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except as permitted by court order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee expressly agrees to honor the confidentiality obligations in this Agreement and will only share Confidential and Proprietary Information with the Grantee’s attorney or with the government agency or entity in accordance with this Section 5. Further, nothing in this Agreement limits or affects Grantee’s right to disclose or discuss sexual harassment or sexual assault disputes. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to permit or condone unlawful conduct, including but not limited to the theft or misappropriation of Company Group’s property, trade secrets or information. 6) Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date (in each case, except with respect to Section 5(f), which restrictions apply in perpetuity), the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company Group, whether as an agent or otherwise: a) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact; b) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group whose entity- or other customer- specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information; c) Utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group; d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company Group to leave the employ of any member of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company Group; or take any action to


 
6 assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any employee of a member of the Company Group to leave the employ of such member of the Company Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than a member of the Company Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by a member of the Company Group within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; e) Become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Section 6(e), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company Group simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section 6 will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section 6 shall operate in any country in which the Company Group conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by a member of the Company Group; and/or f) Subject to Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company Group in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including


 
7 any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company Group, to (i) any competitor of the Company Group, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company Group, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of any member of the Company Group, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against any member of the Company Group, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company Group (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company Group, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of any member of the Company Group and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of any member of the Company Group; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company Group (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against any member of the Company Group, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against any member of the Company Group, (iii) proposing to acquire any member of the Company Group or any of its assets or (iv) making any other demands of any member of the Company Group. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company Group with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company Group has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company Group, (c) solicitation or hire of the employees of any member of the Company Group, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company Group that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company Group would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company Group shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief


 
8 providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company Group, or until the Company Group states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company Group, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company Group no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of Service due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Section 5 and Section 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company Group may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company Group is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Section 5 and Section 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company Group. 7) Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Grantee shall not be permitted to transfer or assign this Agreement or the MSUs, except as expressly permitted under the Plan. The Company may assign this Agreement to an entity controlled by or under common control with the Company or to an entity that acquires all or substantially all of the business, equity or assets of the Company. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company Group and its successors and assigns and upon the Grantee and the Grantee’s heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person other than the


 
9 Company Group and the Grantee, and their respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. 8) Withholding. As a condition to the granting of the MSUs, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Grantee is responsible for the payment of income and employment taxes (and any other taxes) payable in connection with the vesting and/or settlement of the MSUs. The Company Group shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold automatically from any payment or shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement, or require the Grantee to remit to the Company Group, the minimum statutory amount to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement (the “Minimum Withholding”) in a form that is reasonably acceptable to the Company (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion); provided that, except as otherwise provided by the Board, with respect to the withholding of shares of Common Stock, if the Company Group is able to withhold from the shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement such number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion) that is greater than the Minimum Withholding without financial accounting implications for the Company or the withholding is in a jurisdiction that does not have a Minimum Withholding, the Company Group shall have the power and the right, including at the Grantee's request, to deduct or withhold automatically from any shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement up to the maximum individual statutory rate of tax (determined by, or in a manner approved by, the Company) to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any taxes that the Company Group is required to withhold in connection with the vesting of the MSUs, the Company Group shall deduct or withhold automatically from any shares of Common Stock deliverable under this Agreement the number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the Minimum Withholding with respect to such taxable event, which retained shares of Common Stock shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on the Grantee’s behalf. 9) No Rights to Continued Service. The granting of the MSUs shall impose no obligation on any member of the Company Group to continue the Service of the Grantee and shall not interfere in any way with the right of any member of the Company Group to terminate such Service. 10) Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action or other matters that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation thereof to the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. 11) Consent to Jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee, by the Grantee’s execution hereof, (a) hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware for the purposes of any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof, (b) hereby waive, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such claim or action, any claim that the Grantee is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the Grantee’s property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such proceeding brought in the above-named court is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may


 
10 not be enforced in or by such court and (c) hereby agree not to commence any claim or action arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof other than before the above-named courts nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such claim or action to any court other than the above-named courts whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise; provided, however, that the Company and the Grantee may seek to enforce a judgment issued by the above-named courts in any proper jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee hereby consent to service of process in any such proceeding, and agree that service of process by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at the Grantee’s address specified pursuant to Section 15 is reasonably calculated to give actual notice. 12) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES AND COVENANTS THAT THE GRANTEE SHALL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE OR ACTION, CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR SUIT (IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE), INQUIRY, PROCEEDING OR INVESTIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE OTHER PARTY HERETO THAT THIS SECTION 12 CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH THEY ARE RELYING AND SHALL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 12 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 13) Compliance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary: a) The Company intends that the MSUs satisfy the requirements of Section 409A. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with that intent, such that there are no adverse tax consequences, interest or penalties under Section 409A as a result of the MSUs. In no event whatsoever will any member of the Company Group or any of their respective directors, officers, agents, attorneys, employees, shareholders, investors, managers, fiduciaries, successors or assigns be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on the Grantee under Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A. b) A termination of Service shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A upon or following a termination of Service unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “terminate,” “termination of Service” or like terms shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If any payment, compensation or other benefit provided to the Grantee, due to the termination of the Grantee’s employment, is determined, in whole or in part, to constitute


 
11 “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and the Grantee is a specified employee as defined in Section 409A(2)(B)(i) of the Code, no part of such payments shall be paid before the day that is six (6) months plus one (1) day after the date of termination or, if earlier, ten (10) business days following the Grantee’s death (the “New Payment Date”). The aggregate of any payments that otherwise would have been paid to the Grantee during the period between the date of termination and the New Payment Date shall be paid to the Grantee in a lump sum on such New Payment Date. Thereafter, any payments that remain outstanding as of the day immediately following the New Payment Date shall be paid without delay over the time period originally scheduled, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. c) If under this Agreement, an amount is paid in two or more installments, for purposes of Section 409A, each installment shall be treated as a separate payment. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “as soon as practicable following the applicable Vesting Date, but no later than thirty (30) days following such Vesting Date”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. 14) No Guarantees Regarding Tax Treatment. Grantee (or Grantee’s beneficiaries) shall be responsible for all taxes with respect to the MSUs. The Board and the Company make no guarantees regarding the tax treatment of the MSUs. Neither the Board nor the Company has any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any tax under Section 409A of the Code or Section 457A of the Code or otherwise. 15) Notices. Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed given when delivered personally, or when deposited in the regular mail, postage prepaid, addressed, as appropriate, to the Grantee at the last address specified in the Grantee’s employment records (or such other address as the Grantee may designate in writing to the Company), or to the Company, 1 Hancock Street, Portland, ME 04101, Attention: Chief Legal Officer, or such other address as the Company may designate in writing to the Grantee. 16) No Effect on Compensation. The amount of any compensation the Grantee receives pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute includable compensation for purposes of determining the amount of benefits to which the Grantee is entitled to under any other compensation or benefit plan or program of the Company Group, including, without limitation, under any pension or severance benefits plan, except to the extent specifically provided by the terms of any such plan or as otherwise expressly required under applicable law. 17) Failure to Enforce Not a Waiver. The failure of the Company to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof. 18) Recoupment/Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, any amounts paid (in cash or non-cash) to the Grantee under this Agreement that are subject to recovery under any current or future law, government regulation, stock exchange listing requirement, or policy of the Company Group (“Company Policy”), will be recouped and recovered by the Company pursuant to such law, government regulation, stock exchange


 
12 listing requirement, or Company Policy unless such Company Policy violates the laws of the State of Delaware. 19) Amendments. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate this Agreement, the Plan, or any portion thereof at any time, in its sole discretion; provided, that no action taken by the Board shall adversely affect in any material respect any rights granted to the Grantee under this Agreement (other than pursuant to Article 10 of the Plan or as the Board deems necessary to comply with applicable law, including without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 409A) without the Grantee’s written consent. No amendment or modification of any term of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed in writing by or on behalf of the Company and, if required, the Grantee, and made in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 20) Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the validity of any other provision. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is unenforceable in whole or in part because of the duration or scope thereof, the parties hereto agree that said court in making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and scope of such provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and that the Agreement in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted by law. 21) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including Exhibit A), the Memorandum and the Plan constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous arrangements, agreements and understandings, whether oral or written and whether express or implied, and whether in term sheets, presentations or otherwise, among the parties hereto, or between any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, that, the Grantee shall continue to be bound by any other confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and other similar restrictive covenants contained in any other agreements between the Grantee and the Company, its affiliates and their respective predecessors to which the Grantee is bound. 22) Authority. The Board has complete authority and discretion to determine Awards, and to interpret and construe the terms of the Plan and this Agreement. The determination of the Board as to any matter relating to the interpretation or construction of the Plan or this Agreement shall be final, binding and conclusive on all parties. 23) Rights as a Stockholder. The Grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock underlying or relating to any Award until the Common Stock is issued to the Grantee, as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. 24) Signature in Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Facsimile and pdf e-mail signatures shall have the same legal effect as manual signatures.


 
13 25) Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver this Agreement, the Memorandum and any other documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to sign this Agreement and the Memorandum by acknowledgment through an on- line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement is effective as of the date first above written. WEX INC. By: Melissa Smith Its: Chair and Chief Executive Officer


 
14 EXHIBIT A State Specific Provisions This Exhibit A includes special terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted to such Grantee under the Plan if the Grantee resides and/or works in one of the jurisdictions listed below. These terms and conditions are in addition to or, if so indicated, in replacement of the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement. This Exhibit A also includes information regarding Confidential and Proprietary Information, Non- Competition, Non-Solicitation and certain other issues of which the Grantee should be aware with respect to the Grantee’s receipt of the Market Share Units (the “MSUs”) and participation in the Plan. The information is based on the exchange control, securities and other laws in effect in the respective jurisdictions as of March 2024. However, such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Grantee not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Grantee vests in the MSUs, acquires shares (or the cash equivalent) or sells the Common Stock acquired under the MSUs. In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Grantee’s particular situation and the Company is not in a position to assure the Grantee of any particular result. Accordingly, the Grantee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Grantee’s jurisdiction may apply to the Grantee’s situation. Finally, if the Grantee is a resident of a jurisdiction other than the one in which the Grantee is currently residing and/or working, transfers employment and/or residency to another jurisdiction after the Award is granted or is considered a resident of another jurisdiction for local law purposes, the terms and conditions and notifications contained herein may not be applicable to the Grantee. The Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions included herein will apply under these circumstances. United States – North Dakota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oregon Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6) Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that: (a) During Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer-


 
15 specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (b) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company; (c) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; (d) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the subject matter of the Grantee’s Service or relating to the Company Group’s business; and/or (e) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the


 
16 Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The restrictions in this Section shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach.


 
17 If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the final Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. United States – Colorado Only Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information and trade secrets provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that: (a) During the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers,


 
18 clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer-specific trade secret information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company trade secrets; (b) During the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, utilize the Company Group’s trade secrets to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company; (c) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; (d) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the subject matter of the Grantee’s Service or relating to the Company’s business; (e) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Section 6(e), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing


 
19 any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company Group simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section 6 will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company Group, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section 6 shall operate in any country in which the Company Group conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by a member of the Company Group; and/or (f) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a


 
20 proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. If Grantee earns from the Company an amount of annualized cash compensation equivalent to or greater than the threshold amount for highly compensated workers, as adjusted annually by the Colorado Division of Labor Standards and Statistics in the Department of Labor and Employment (for 2025, $127,091), then Sub-Section 6(e) shall apply both during the term of Grantee’s Service and for a period of one year thereafter. If Grantee earns from the Company an amount of annualized cash compensation equivalent to or greater than sixty-percent of the threshold amount for highly compensated workers, as adjusted annually by the Colorado Division of Labor Standards and Statistics in the Department of Labor and Employment (for 2025, $76,255), then Sub-Sections 6(a) and 6(b) shall apply both during the term of Grantee’s Service and for a period of one year thereafter. Grantee stipulates that the non-competition and customer non-solicitation covenants in Sub-Sections 6(a), 6(b) and 6(c) are reasonable and necessary for the protection of trade secrets within the meaning of the Colorado Noncompete Act. The restrictions in this Section shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s and its subsidiaries’ businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law,


 
21 automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the final Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits disclosure of information that arises from Grantee’s general training, knowledge, skill, or experience, whether gained on the job or otherwise, information that is readily ascertainable to the public, or information that Grantee otherwise has a right to disclose as legally protected conduct. Nothing in this Agreement or in any Company policy limits or prevents Grantee from disclosing information about workplace health and safety practices or hazards, or limits or affects Grantee’s right to disclose or discuss sexual harassment or sexual assault disputes. Nothing in this Agreement limits the ability of an employee or prospective employee to disclose or discuss, either orally or in writing, any alleged discriminatory or unfair employment practices. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee received notice of the covenants not to compete in this Agreement and their terms in a separate document before Grantee accepted the offer of employment, or, if Grantee


 
22 was a current employee at the time Grantee entered into this Agreement, at least fourteen (14) days before the effective date of this Agreement. Consent to Jurisdiction: The following is added to the end of Section 11: Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will require Grantee to adjudicate outside of Colorado the enforceability of a covenant not to compete or require that another state’s law other than Colorado law govern the enforceability of a covenant not to compete that applies to Grantee. United States - California Only Non-Solicitation: The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6) Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that: (a) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer- specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (b) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company; (c) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, utilize the Company Group’s


 
23 Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; (d) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the subject matter of the Grantee’s Service or relating to the Company Group’s business; and/or (e) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company.

In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that during the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter (1) with respect to Sub-Sections 5(a) through 5(d), (i) until twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, until twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, (2) with respect to Sub-Section 6(e), until twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason and (3) with respect to Sub-Section 6(f), in perpetuity, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise:


 
30 (a) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact; (b) Contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; (c) Utilize the Company Group’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company; (d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or take any action to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or the Grantee’s subsequent employer; (e) Become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub-Section 6(e), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being


 
31 involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company’s grant and provision of the MSUs, to which the Grantee would not be entitled absent execution of this Agreement, constitute fair, reasonable, and mutually agreed upon consideration to support this Sub-Section 6(e). This Sub-Section 6(e), only, shall not apply if the Grantee is terminated without Cause or laid off. For purposes of this Sub-Section 6(e), only, the term “Cause” shall mean willful misconduct by the Grantee or willful failure by the Grantee to perform his or her responsibilities to the Company (including, without limitation, breach by the Grantee of any provision of any employment, consulting, advisory, nondisclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company), as determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. The Grantee’s employment shall be considered to have been terminated for Cause if the Company determines, within thirty (30) days after the Grantee’s termination, that termination for Cause was warranted; and/or (f) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee


 
32 of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. The Grantee further understands and agrees that if the Grantee breaches any covenant set forth in Section 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach; except that the duration of the covenants contained in Sub-Section 6(e), only, shall extend to twenty- four (24) months if the Grantee breached his or her fiduciary duty to the Company and/or if the Grantee has unlawfully taken, physically or electronically, property belonging to the Company. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be


 
33 construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the final Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide such notice, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. The Grantee agrees that the Company may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement known to, any of the Grantee’s potential and future employers or other entity considering engaging the Grantee or which has engaged or employed the Grantee. The Grantee agrees not to assert any claim that such conduct by the Company is legally actionable interference or otherwise impermissible regardless of whether or not the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The Grantee is hereby informed that the Grantee has the right to consult with counsel prior to signing this Agreement. Governing Law: The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action or other matters that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation thereof to the substantive laws of another jurisdiction; except that Sub-Section 6(e) only shall be governed by the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts if the Grantee was a resident of Massachusetts for thirty (30) days immediately preceding Grantee’s cessation of Service. Consent to Jurisdiction


 
34 The following is added to the end of Section 11: Notwithstanding the foregoing, any civil action relating to Section 6(e) shall be brought in the state or federal court in and for the county where Grantee resides. United States - Minnesota Only Non-Competition Sub-section 6(e) of the Agreement, alone, is deleted in its entirety. Consent to Jurisdiction The following is added to the end of Section 11: Nothing in this Agreement will require Grantee to adjudicate outside of Minnesota any claim involving a covenant not to compete arising in Minnesota, or deprive Grantee of the substantive protection of Minnesota law with respect to a controversy arising in Minnesota involving a covenant not to compete. United States - Washington Only The following provisions replace Section 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6) Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to the Grantee, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that: (a) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, solicit any current customer of the Company to cease or reduce the extent to which it is doing business with the Company; (b) During the Grantee’s Service and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee shall not, on behalf of the Grantee or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, entity or organization other than the Company, whether as an agent or otherwise, solicit any employee of the Company to leave the Company; (c) During the term of the Grantee’s Service, the Grantee promises and agrees that the Grantee will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the subject matter of the Grantee’s Service or relating to the Company Group’s business;


 
35 (d) If, as of the date enforcement is sought or Grantee’s last day of employment (whichever is earlier), Grantee’s earnings from the Company in the prior year (or portion thereof for which Grantee was employed), when annualized, exceed the amount required by Wash. Rev. Code 49.62.020 as adjusted by 49.62.040 (for 2025, $123,395), then Grantee shall not become employed by, render services to or directly or indirectly (whether for compensation or otherwise, and whether as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity), own or hold a proprietary interest in, manage, operate, or control, or join or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or furnish any capital to or be connected in any manner with, any Competing Enterprise. For purposes of this Sub- Section 6(d), a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted during the Grantee’s Service or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of Service or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. It includes, without limitation: (i) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing any products or services relating to transaction or payment processing, including those for the benefit of fleets; travel; healthcare; education; payroll; or, benefits through charge cards, credit cards, procurement cards or any other form of payment services or electronic commerce; (ii) the sale, distribution or publication of petroleum product pricing or management information or other products or services currently sold or to the best of the Grantee’s knowledge contemplated to be sold by the Company or any of its owned or controlled subsidiaries, and (iii) the business of developing, managing, operating, marketing, processing, financing, or otherwise being involved in providing commercial travel, entertainment and purchasing credit cards. The restrictions in this Section 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee. The restrictions in this Section shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of the Grantee’s Service, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with a Competing Enterprise, so long as the entity is operationally separate and distinct from the Competing Enterprise and the Grantee’s job responsibilities at that entity are unrelated to the Competing Enterprise. The restrictions in this Section will not apply to employment by or the rendering of services to businesses that sell fuel or convenience items if those businesses are not directly competing with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled. The restrictions in this Section shall also not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company. The Grantee acknowledges that the Company Group’s businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Section shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. In the event Grantee’s employment is terminated as a result of a layoff, this Sub-Section 6(d) will not be enforced by the Company. If Grantee is a new hire, Grantee acknowledges that the terms of this Agreement were disclosed to Grantee in writing no


 
36 later than the time of the acceptance of the offer of employment. If Grantee is a current employee, Grantee acknowledges that this Agreement provides, and Grantee has received, good, valuable, sufficient and independent consideration for this Sub-Section 6(d); and/or (e) Subject to Sub-Section 5(b), and except in the proper course of the Grantee’s duties to the Company in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise explicitly directed in writing by an officer of the Company, directly or through others: (a) provide any confidential information, including any information derived from the Grantee’s experience with the Company, to (i) any competitor of the Company, (ii) any person the Grantee knows or has reason to believe may be an investor or prospective investor in the Company, (iii) a member of the media, (iv) any prospective acquirer of the Company, (v) any litigant or potential litigant against the Company, (vi) any other person seeking information regarding the Company (including, without limitation, information with respect to its business, executives, directors, balance sheet, history, prospects or opportunities) or seeking to change or influence the control of the Company, or (vii) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (vii), a “Potential Adverse Party”); (b) make, publicly or privately, any statements that disparage, or could otherwise cause harm to, the business or reputation of the Company and/or any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company; (c) join a “group” or become a “participant” in a solicitation with respect to the Company (other than a solicitation by the Board of Directors), as those terms are defined in applicable securities laws; and (d) aid, encourage, advise or otherwise provide assistance to any Potential Adverse Party in (i) asserting, prosecuting or defending any claim, action or proceeding against the Company, (ii) undertaking a proxy contest, withhold campaign or other shareholder activism campaign or proxy solicitation against the Company, (iii) proposing to acquire the Company or any of its assets or subsidiaries or (iv) making any other demands of the Company. If the Grantee is contacted by any Potential Adverse Party, the Grantee shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (the “CLO”), and shall not discuss the Company with any such Potential Adverse Party without prior written approval from the CLO. The Company has previously entered into agreements with certain executives and employees that contain restrictive covenants (“Restrictions”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee is party to an employment or other agreement containing Restrictions on (a) confidentiality, (b) solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company, (c) solicitation or hire of Company employees, and/or (d) competition (collectively, “Existing Restrictions”), any such Existing Restrictions will remain in effect and the Grantee shall remain bound by such Existing Restrictions. To the extent the restrictions contained in Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law. The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company. The


 
37 Grantee also acknowledges that in the event the Grantee breaches any part of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement. Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding. If any one or more provisions of Sections 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled. The Grantee agrees, during (i) the twelve (12) month period following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period following the final Vesting Date, to disclose to the Company, in writing, any person or entity with whom the Grantee becomes employed, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated, the Grantee’s date of hire or engagement, the Grantee’s job title, and a complete description of the Grantee’s duties. The Grantee agrees to make such disclosure to the Company no later than the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. While the Grantee is employed with the Company and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of the Grantee’s Service for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of a termination of employment due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the final Vesting Date, the Grantee will provide any person or entity that the Grantee seeks an offer of employment or other engagement or retention from notice of the existence of this Agreement and the terms of Sections 5 and 6 before requesting or accepting such an offer.

Mindful of the obligations set forth in Sections 5 and 6, upon termination of the Grantee’s employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Governing Law: The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10) Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action or other matters that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in


 
38 accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflict or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation thereof to the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. If the laws of the State of Washington apply to the Grantee, then nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to deprive the Grantee of the protections or benefits of the Washington Noncompete Act (RCW §§49.62.005 – 900), or allows or requires the application of choice of law principles or the substantive law of any jurisdiction other than Washington state for any noncompetition covenant. Consent to Jurisdiction: The following is added to the end of Section 11: If the laws of the State of Washington apply to the Grantee, then nothing in this Agreement shall require the Grantee to adjudicate a noncompetition covenant outside of the State of Washington. Grantee understands that nothing in this Agreement or in any Company policy prevents Grantee from discussing or disclosing conduct, or the existence of a settlement involving conduct, that Grantee reasonably believed to be illegal discrimination, illegal harassment, illegal retaliation, a wage and hour violation, or sexual assault, or that is recognized as illegal under state, federal, or common law, or that is recognized as against a clear mandate of public policy, where the conduct occurred at the workplace, at work-related events coordinated by or through the employer, between employees, or between an employer and an employee, whether on or off the employment premises; provided, however, that Grantee remains subject to any obligation to keep confidential the amount paid in settlement of any claim.
