(c) Notwithstanding Sub-paragraph 3(b), upon the Grantee’s death, (i) if the final number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units that are eligible for vesting is not determined, the Award shall become immediately vested as to the Target number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Memorandum that have not yet vested pursuant to Sub-paragraph 3(b) and such Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in accordance with Sub-paragraph 3(a), subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Leadership Development and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”); or (ii) if the final number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units that are eligible for vesting has been determined pursuant to Schedule 1, then the Award shall become immediately vested for such determined level of vesting for the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and such Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in accordance with Sub-paragraph 3(a), subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Committee. (d) Notwithstanding Sub-paragraph 3(b), if after six (6) months of employment have been completed following the Date of Grant set forth in the Memorandum, and prior to the Vesting Date, the Grantee’s employment with the Company terminates by reason of Retirement, the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall continue to be eligible to vest and be settled in accordance with the schedule set forth in Sub-paragraphs 3(a) and 3(b) above and as determined pursuant to Schedule 1, subject to (i) the Grantee’s continued compliance with the provisions of this Agreement on such date, including without limitation Paragraphs 4 and 5 hereof, (ii) the Grantee’s execution of a separation agreement and release of claims in a form determined by the Company and agreed with the Grantee (and executed by deed where appropriate), within the consideration period specified in such agreement following the date of such termination (such period ending on the date of such agreement’s execution, the “Consideration Period”) and the Grantee’s non-revocation of the execution of such agreement during the revocation period specified in such agreement following the expiration of the Consideration Period (the “Revocation Period”) and (iii) the Grantee’s successful completion of the Grantee’s transitional duties prior to the date of such termination; provided, that, (A) in the event of the Grantee’s death following the Grantee’s Retirement and prior to the Vesting Date, the Award shall immediately vest and be settled in accordance with Sub-paragraphs 3(a) and 3(c) above at Target, except in the event that the final number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units that are eligible for vesting has been determined pursuant to Schedule 1, then the Award shall become immediately vested for such determined level of vesting for the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and such Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in accordance with Sub-paragraph 3(a), subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Committee and (B) in the event that the Vesting Date occurs following the date of such termination, but prior to the expiration of the Revocation Period, the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units that would otherwise vest on the Vesting Date and be settled on or within thirty (30) days following the Vesting Date in accordance with Sub-paragraphs 3(a) and (b) shall instead vest and be settled on the date

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 immediately following the expiration of the Revocation Period (or, if the Consideration Period and the Revocation Period could span two (2) calendar years, the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall be vested and settled on the first regularly scheduled payroll date during the second calendar year). For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean termination of employment upon at least six (6) months of prior written notice by the Grantee to the Grantee’s direct manager at the Company, and other than for Cause (as defined in the Plan), provided that the Grantee has satisfied at the time of notice any of the following: (i) on or after the attainment of fifty-five (55) years of age and ten (10) full continuous years of service, (ii) on or after the attainment of sixty (60) years of age and five (5) full continuous years of service or (iii) on or after the attainment of sixty-five (65) years of age and two (2) full continuous years of service, in each case, as determined by the Company’s HRIS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Company receives a legal opinion that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in the Grantee’s jurisdiction that likely would result in the favorable treatment that applies to the Award under this Sub-paragraph 3(d) being deemed unlawful, or (ii) any of the restrictive covenants set forth in the provisions of Paragraphs 4 and/or 5 hereof are held by any court or government authority (or otherwise deemed) to be void, unlawful or unenforceable as written with respect to the Grantee, the provisions of Sub-paragraph 3(d) will not be applicable to the Grantee and the remaining provisions of Paragraph 3 will govern. (e) (i) Notwithstanding Sub-paragraph 3(b), upon a “Change in Control” of the Company, if the surviving entity does not agree to assume the obligations set forth in the Agreement, then the Award shall become immediately vested as set forth below and the Award shall be settled in accordance with Sub-paragraph 3(a) above, subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Committee; provided, however, that (A) in the event that the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units constitute the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and (B) the Change in Control does not constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall vest immediately upon such Change in Control as set forth below but shall be payable in accordance with the schedule set forth in Sub-paragraphs 3(a) and 3(b) hereof, or earlier as set forth in Sub-paragraphs 3(a) and 3(c). In the event that the Award becomes immediately vested upon a Change in Control that occurs prior to or during the performance period, the Grantee shall vest in the Target number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Memorandum, and the Target performance goal shall be deemed achieved, unless the Committee determines in its sole discretion to deem a higher level of achievement of the performance goal resulting in a greater number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units vesting upon such Change in Control. In the event the Award becomes immediately vested upon a Change in Control that occurs after such period, the Grantee shall vest in the number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Memorandum, determined based on the level of achievement of the performance goals pursuant to Schedule 1. (ii) Notwithstanding Sub-paragraph 3(b), upon a Change in Control, if the surviving entity does agree to assume the obligations set forth in the Agreement, then the Award shall be subject to the provisions to Section 10(c)(2) of the Plan and shall continue to be subject to the vesting and settlement provisions of this Paragraph 3 as well as Schedule 1, determined based on the level of achievement of the performance goals pursuant Schedule 1, provided, however, that (A) in the event that the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 constitute the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A Code and (B) the Change in Control does not constitute a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall vest immediately upon the applicable termination of employment pursuant to Section 10(c)(2) of the Plan but shall be payable in accordance with the schedule set forth in Sub-paragraphs 3(a) and 3(b) hereof, or earlier as set forth in Sub-paragraphs 3(a) and 3(c). For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 4. Confidential and Proprietary Information. (a) 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/or its subsidiaries, 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; (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; 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 (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 Paragraph. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to permit or condone unlawful conduct, including but not limited to the theft or misappropriation of Company property, trade secrets or information. 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 continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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 (in each case, except with respect to Sub-paragraph 5(f), which restrictions apply in perpetuity), 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, 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;

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 (c) Utilize the Company’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 his/her 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-paragraph 5(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 employment with the Company or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company 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 his/her 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 Paragraph 5 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 Paragraph shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of his/her employment with the Company, 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 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’s and its subsidiaries’ businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 provisions in this Paragraph shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company; and/or (f) Subject to Sub-paragraph 4(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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 he/she breaches any part of Paragraphs 4 or 5 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 further understands and agrees that if he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 5, 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 his/her employment with the Company 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 his/her employment with the Company 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 Paragraphs 4 and 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5, upon termination of his/her employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. 6. Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary and except to the extent explicitly provided otherwise in this Agreement, upon the termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries for any reason whatsoever, the Award, to the extent not yet vested, shall immediately and automatically terminate; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion agree to accelerate the vesting of the Award, upon termination of employment or otherwise, for any

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 reason or no reason, but shall have no obligation to do so, and in each case to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of the Plan and the Award, a termination of employment 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 or resignation from employment, and without regard to any period of notice of termination of employment (whether expressed or implied) or any period of severance or salary continuation, provided that, to the extent the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units constitute the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the determination of which shall be made by the Company which determination the Grantee hereby agrees to be bound. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Award, this Agreement or any other agreement (written or oral) to the contrary, 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. 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. 7. No Assignment. Except as expressly permitted under the Plan, this Agreement may not be assigned by the Grantee by operation of law or otherwise. 8. No Rights to Continued Employment or Service. Neither this Agreement nor the Award shall be construed as giving the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of or other service to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate such employment or service. 9. 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 State of Delaware, without effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. 10. Tax Obligations; Section 409A. (a) As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that he/she is responsible for the payment of income and employment taxes (and any other taxes) 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. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any taxes are payable with respect to the Award prior to the delivery of any Common Stock to the Grantee in settlement of any vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit, the Company shall withhold such taxes from any other amounts payable to the Grantee, as permitted by law. (b) Notwithstanding 10(a), the Company will retain and withhold from delivery at

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 the time of vesting that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the taxes required to be withheld by the Company from the Grantee, which retained shares shall fund the payment of such taxes by the Company on behalf of the Grantee. (c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units constitute the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, then any payment with respect to this Award upon the Grantee’s termination of employment shall be delayed until the six (6)-month anniversary of the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment to the extent necessary to comply with Code Section 409A(a)(B)(i). (d) The Company may neither accelerate nor defer payment of the shares of Common Stock hereunder unless permitted or required by Section 409A of the Code. The shares of Common Stock or any other amount payable on the Vesting Date shall constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder are intended to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no liability to the Grantee or to any other person if this Agreement and the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder are not so exempt or compliant with Section 409A of the Code. 11. Notices. Except as otherwise provided in Sub-paragraph 3(d), 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, 97 Darling Avenue, South Portland, ME 04106, Attention: Chief Legal Officer, or such other address as the Company may designate in writing to the Grantee. 12. 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. 13. Amendments; Severability. (a) This Agreement may be amended or modified at any time by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. (b) The provisions of this Agreement are severable, such that in the event any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remainder of this Agreement will nevertheless be binding and enforceable. 14. Authority. The Committee 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 Committee 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 15. 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 issuance of a stock certificate to the Grantee in respect of such Award.

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 EXHIBIT A Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement 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 2022. 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Australia Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Paragraph 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: The following provisions replace Paragraph 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:

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 (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 and/or its subsidiaries with whom the Grantee directly performed any services or had any direct business contact; (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 and/or its subsidiaries whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee had direct 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 and/or its subsidiaries with whom the Grantee had a business relationship and/or dealings to leave the employ of the Company and/or its subsidiaries or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company and/or its subsidiaries; 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 and/or its subsidiaries become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company and/or its subsidiaries; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company and/or its subsidiaries; (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-paragraph 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, 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 his/her 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 Paragraph shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries, working for a business entity that does not compete with the Company or its subsidiaries simply because the entity is affiliated with

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 4, 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. 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 Paragraph 5, “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 Paragraph 5, “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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 employment with the Company and in which the Grantee was involved, 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 Paragraph 5, 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 and/or its subsidiaries 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 and/or its subsidiaries, (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 Paragraph 5. 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 he/she breaches any part of Paragraphs 4 or 5, 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 he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 5, 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 Paragraph 5 (resulting from any combination of the wording in this Paragraph 5, 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 Paragraph 5 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’s and its subsidiaries’ 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 his/her own accord to agree to the restrictive covenants contained within this Paragraph 5 in exchange for the consideration that the Company is providing as outlined herein.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5, upon termination of his/her employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Termination of Employment: The following provisions replace Paragraph 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 6. Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary and except to the extent explicitly provided otherwise in this Agreement, upon the termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries for any reason whatsoever, the Award, to the extent not yet vested, shall immediately and automatically terminate; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion agree to accelerate the vesting of the Award, upon termination of employment or otherwise, for any reason or no reason, but shall have no obligation to do so. For purposes of the Plan and the Award, a termination of employment 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 or resignation from employment, and without regard to any notice of termination of employment period or any period of severance or salary continuation. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Award, this Agreement or any other agreement (written or oral) to the contrary, 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. 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. No Rights to Continued Employment or Service: The following provision supplements Paragraph 8 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). Tax Obligations: Paragraph 10 Sub-paragraph (b) of the Agreement does not apply. Amendments; Severability: Paragraph 13 Sub-paragraph (b) of the Agreement does not apply. Tax Information: 16. 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: 17. 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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: 18. 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. Securities Law Information: 19. Securities Law Information. The Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are intended to comply with the provisions of the Corporations Act 2001, Australia Securities and Investments Commission (“ASIC”) Regulatory Guide 49 and ASIC Class Order 14/1000. Additional details are set forth in the Offer Document for the offer of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units to Australian resident employees which follows in this Exhibit A.

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 WEX INC. Offer of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units to Australian Resident Employees 1. TERMS OF THE OFFER WEX Inc. (the “Company”) is pleased to provide you with this offer to participate in the Company’s Amended and Restated 2019 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). This offer sets out information regarding the grant of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units to Australian resident employees of the Company and any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate. This Offer Document is provided by the Company to ensure compliance of the Plan with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s (“ASIC”) Class Order 14/1000 and relevant provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning provided in the Plan or the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, as applicable. 2. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS You are being provided with copies of and/or access to the following documents: (a) the Plan; (b) the Plan Prospectus (the “Prospectus”); and (c) the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement and exhibit attached thereto (the “Agreement”); (collectively, the “Additional Documents”). The Additional Documents provide further information to help you make an informed investment decision about participating in the Plan. Neither the Plan nor the Prospectus is a prospectus for the purposes of the Corporations Act 2001. 3. RELIANCE ON STATEMENTS You should not rely upon any oral statements made in relation to this offer. You should rely only upon the statements contained in this document and the Additional Documents when considering participation in the Plan. 4. ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS FOR AUSTRALIAN RESIDENTS You should have regard to risk factors relevant to investment in securities generally and, in particular, to the holding of shares. For example, the price at which the shares of Common Stock are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) may increase or decrease due to a number of factors. There is no guarantee that the price of the shares of Common Stock will increase. Factors that may affect the price of the shares of Common Stock include fluctuations in the domestic and international market for listed stocks, general economic conditions, including interest rates, inflation rates, commodity and oil prices, changes to government fiscal, monetary or regulatory policies, legislation or regulation, the nature of the markets in which the Company operates and general operational and business risks. More information about potential factors that could affect the Company’s business and financial results is included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and will be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Copies of these reports are available at http://www.sec.gov/, on the Company’s “Investor Relations” website at https://ir.wexinc.com/financials/sec-filings, and upon request to the Company.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 In addition, you should be aware that the Australian dollar value of any shares of Common Stock acquired at vesting will be affected by the U.S. dollar/Australian dollar exchange rate. Participation in the Plan involves certain risks related to fluctuations in this rate of exchange. 5. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK Common Stock of a U.S. corporation is analogous to ordinary shares of an Australian corporation. Each holder of the Common Stock is entitled to one vote for every share of Common Stock. Dividends may be paid on the shares of Common Stock out of any funds of the Company legally available for dividends at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The shares of Common Stock are traded on the NYSE in the United States of America under the symbol “WEX”. The shares of Common Stock are not liable to any further calls for payment of capital or for other assessment by the Company and have no sinking fund provisions, pre-emptive rights, conversion rights or redemption provisions. 6. ASCERTAINING THE MARKET PRICE OF SHARES You may ascertain the current market price of the shares of Common Stock as traded on the NYSE under the symbol “WEX” at https://www.nyse.com/. The Australian dollar equivalent of that price can be obtained at: http://www.rba.gov.au/statistics/frequency/exchange-rates.html. This will not be a prediction of what the market price per share of Common Stock will be when the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units vest or when shares of Common Stock are issued or of the applicable rate on the actual Vesting Date or the date shares of Common Stock are issued. 7. AUSTRALIAN TAX CONSEQUENCES The following is a summary of the income tax consequences as of March 2022 for an Australian resident who is granted Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units under the Plan. You may also be subject to Medicare Levy and surcharge. The summary is necessarily general in nature and does not purport to be tax advice in relation to an actual or potential recipient of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. If you are a citizen or resident of another country for local tax law purposes or if you transfer employment and/or residency to another country after the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are granted to you, the information contained in this summary may not be applicable to you. You are encouraged to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the tax or other laws in Australia and in your country apply to your specific situation. If you are granted Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, you should not rely on this summary as anything other than a broad guide, and you are advised to obtain independent taxation advice specific to your particular circumstances. (a) What is the effect of the grant of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units? The Australian tax legislation contains specific rules, in Subdivision 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, governing the taxation of shares and rights (called “ESS interests”) acquired by employees under employee share schemes. The Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units granted under the Plan should be regarded as a right to acquire shares and accordingly, an ESS interest for these purposes. Your assessable income includes any discount in relation to the acquisition of an ESS interest at grant, unless the ESS interest is either (i) subject to a real risk of forfeiture or (ii) you are genuinely restricted from immediately disposing of the ESS interest and there is a statement in the Additional Documents that deferral is to apply, in which case you will be subject to deferred taxation.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 The terms of your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are set out in the Additional Documents. It generally is understood that your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units will satisfy the real risk of forfeiture test. In addition, your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are non-transferable and the Agreement contains a statement that tax deferral is to apply to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. Accordingly, you should be subject to deferred taxation (i.e., you generally should not be subject to tax when the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are granted to you). However, whether or not there is a real risk of forfeiture may depend upon your individual circumstances. Accordingly, you should seek your own advice in relation to your individual circumstances. (b) When will you be taxed if your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are subject to a real risk of forfeiture? You will be required to include an amount in your assessable income for the income year (i.e., the financial year ending 30 June) in which the earliest of the following events occurs in relation to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (the “ESS deferred taxing point”). In addition to income taxes, this amount may also be subject to Medicare Levy and surcharge (if applicable). Your ESS deferred taxing point will be the earliest of the following: (i) when there are no longer any genuine restrictions on the vesting of the Performance- Based Restricted Stock Units or the underlying shares of Common Stock being disposed of, and when there is no real risk of you forfeiting the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units or underlying shares; (ii) your cessation of employment with your employer or a holding company or subsidiary of your employer (but see Sub-paragraph 7(e) below)1; and (iii) fifteen (15) years from the date the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units were granted. Generally, this means that you will be subject to tax when your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are settled and the resulting shares of Common Stock are no longer subject to any genuine restrictions on disposal. However, the ESS deferred taxing point for your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units will be moved to the time you sell the underlying shares of Common Stock if you sell the shares within thirty (30) days of the original ESS deferred taxing point. In other words, you must report the income in the income year in which the sale occurs and not when the original ESS deferred taxing point occurs if you sell the underlying shares of Common Stock in an arm’s-length transaction within thirty (30) days of that original ESS deferred taxing point. (c) What is the amount to be included in your assessable income if an ESS deferred taxing point occurs? The amount you must include in your assessable income in the income year (i.e., the financial year ending 30 June) in which the ESS deferred taxing point occurs in relation to your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (i.e., typically at vesting) will be the difference between the “market value” of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the ESS deferred taxing point and the cost basis of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (which should be nil because you do not have to pay anything to acquire the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units or the underlying shares of Common Stock). If, however, you sell the underlying shares of Common Stock in an arm’s-length transaction within thirty (30) days of the original ESS deferred taxing point, the amount to be included in your assessable income in the income year in which the sale occurs will be equal to the difference between the sale 1 New legislation adopted in February 2022 eliminates cessation of employment as a taxable event for ESS awards as of July 1, 2022.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 proceeds and the cost basis of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (which should include any incremental costs you incur in connection with the sale (e.g., brokers’ fees)). (d) What is the market value of the Underlying Shares of Common Stock? The “market value” of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the ESS deferred taxing point is determined according to the ordinary meaning of “market value” expressed in Australian currency. The Company will determine the market value in accordance with guidelines prepared by the Australian Taxation Office. The Company has the obligation to provide you with certain information about your participation in the Plan at certain times, including after the end of the income year in which the ESS deferred taxing point occurs. This may assist you in determining the market value of your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units or underlying shares of Common Stock at the ESS deferred taxing point. However, this estimate may not be correct if you sell the shares within thirty (30) days of the Vesting Date, in which case it is your responsibility to report and pay the appropriate amount of tax based on the sales proceeds. (e) What happens if I cease employment before my Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units vest? If you cease employment with your employer prior to the Vesting Date of your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units do not vest upon (or do not remain eligible to continue to vest following) termination of employment (i.e., they are forfeited), you may be treated as having never acquired the forfeited Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units in which case, no amount will be included in your assessable income. (f) Sale of Shares of Common Stock If you sell the shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting of your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units within thirty (30) days of the original ESS deferred taxing point, your ESS deferred taxing point will be shifted to the date of sale for purposes of determining the amount of assessable income and you will not be subject to capital gains taxation. If you sell the shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting of your Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units more than thirty (30) days after the original ESS deferred taxing point, you will be subject to capital gains taxation to the extent that the sales proceeds exceed your cost basis in the shares of Common Stock sold, assuming that the sale of shares of Common Stock occurs in an arm’s-length transaction (as will generally be the case provided that the shares of Common Stock are sold through the NYSE). Your cost basis in the shares of Common Stock will generally be equal to the market value of the shares of Common Stock at the ESS deferred taxing point (which will generally be the Vesting Date) plus any incremental costs you incur in connection with the sale (e.g., brokers fees). The amount of any capital gain you realize must be included in your assessable income for the year in which the shares of Common Stock are sold. However, if you hold the shares of Common Stock for at least one (1) year prior to selling (excluding the dates you acquired and sold the shares of Common Stock), you may be able to apply a discount to the amount of capital gain that you are required to include in your assessable income. If this discount is available, you may calculate the amount of capital gain to be included in your assessable income by first subtracting all available capital losses from your capital gains and then multiplying each capital gain by the discount percentage of fifty percent (50%). You are responsible for reporting any income you realize from the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and paying any applicable taxes due on such income. If your sales proceeds are lower than your cost basis in the shares of Common Stock sold (assuming the sale occurred in an arm’s-length transaction), you will realize a capital loss. Capital losses may be used

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 to offset capital gains realized in the current tax year or in any subsequent tax year, but may not be used to offset other types of income (e.g., salary or wage income). (g) Withholding and Reporting You will be responsible for reporting on your tax return and paying any tax liability in relation to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Common Stock issued to you at the ESS deferred taxing point. It is also your responsibility to report and pay any tax liability on the sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan and any dividends received. Your employer will be required to withhold tax due on the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units only if you have not provided your Tax File Number or Australian Business Number, as applicable, to your employer. However, the Company will provide you (generally, no later than 14 July after the end of the year) and the Commissioner of Taxation (generally, no later than 14 August after the end of the year) with a statement containing certain information about your participation in the Plan in the income year in which the original ESS deferred taxing point occurs (typically the year of vesting). This statement will include an estimate of the market value of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the taxing point. Please note, however, that, if you sell the shares of Common Stock within thirty (30) days of the ESS deferred taxing point, your taxing point will not be at the original ESS deferred taxing point, but will be the date of sale; as such, the amount reported by your employer may differ from your actual taxable amount (which would be based on the value of the shares of Common Stock when sold, rather than at the ESS deferred taxing point). You will be responsible for determining this amount and calculating your tax accordingly. 8. UNITED STATES TAX CONSEQUENCES The Grantees (who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents) will not be subject to U.S. tax by reason only of the grant and vesting of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the acquisition of shares of Common Stock or the sale of shares of Common Stock, except as described in the dividends paragraph above. However, liability for U.S. taxes may accrue if you are otherwise subject to U.S. taxes. The above is an indication only of the likely U.S. taxation consequences for Australian residents awarded Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units under the Plan. You should seek your own advice as to the U.S. taxation consequences of Plan participation. Belgium Award: The reference under Paragraph 2 (Award) to Paragraph 5 should be read as a reference to Paragraph 5, Sub-paragraph 5bis and Sub-paragraph 5ter. Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Paragraph 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/or its subsidiaries, 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,

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 disclosed 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.

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 Paragraph 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5.1 Definitions: 5.1.1 “Restricted Period” means the period commencing on the earlier of (i) the Termination Date except in the event of Retirement; (ii) the date when the Grantee commences Garden Leave; (iii) such date on which the Grantee ceases providing services to the Employer or any Group Company for any reason other than Retirement; or (iv) in the event of termination of employment due to Retirement, the Vesting Date, and continuing for twelve (12) months thereafter. 5.2 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 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 or any company or entity of the WEX Group (the “WEX Group,” referring to any company or entity that controls, is controlled by, or constitutes a consortium with the Company, whereby this term also includes the Company where appropriate), during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period, 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 or any company or entity of the WEX 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 or any

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 company or entity of the WEX 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 or any company or entity of the WEX 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 Confidential and Proprietary Information of any company or entity of the WEX Group 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 or any company or entity of the WEX Group; or (d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group to leave the employ of the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group 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 employee of the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group to leave the employ of the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or his/her subsequent employer. 5.3 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 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 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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. 5.4 The Grantee agrees that the Restricted Period will not apply to Sub-paragraph 5.3 and the Grantee’s obligations under Sub-paragraph 5.3 will continue in perpetuity. 5bis. Non-Competition. 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 or any company or entity of the WEX Group, during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the Restricted Period , 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 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-paragraph (5bis), 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 his/her 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-paragraph 5(bis) 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 does not qualify as a sales representative (the “Belgian Alternative Provision 1”): 5bis. Non-Competition. In view of the employer’s international field of activity, after the Grantee has left the employer and even if his/her 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 his/her employment with the Company or any company or entity of the WEX Group (the “WEX Group,” referring to any company or entity that controls, is controlled by, or constitutes a consortium with the Company, whereby this term also includes the Company where appropriate), during any period between Retirement and the Vesting Date (if applicable) and during the

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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, his/her knowledge of any practice specific to the employer which he/she has acquired on an industrial or commercial level during his/her employment. The prohibition referred to in this Sub-paragraph (5bis) applies to the territory of Belgium and the Netherlands. The Grantee accepts that this territory is automatically extended to the countries in which he/she 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-paragraph (5bis) 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-paragraph (5bis) applies and if the Grantee fails to comply with its provisions, he/she will reimburse to the employer the indemnity he/she received and, in addition thereto, he/she 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”): 5bis. 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, he/she will reimburse to the employer the indemnity he/she received and, in addition thereto, he/she will pay an equivalent amount as damages, without prejudice to the employer’s right to claim any additional damages. 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-paragraph 5(bis) 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”): 5bis. 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 activities which are similar to the activities the Grantee exercises for the employer, within the working area in which he/she carried out his/her 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. 5ter. Common provisions. The restrictions in Paragraph 5 and Sub-paragraph 5bis shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of his/her employment with the Company or any company or entity of the WEX 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 the foregoing Paragraph and Sub-paragraph (5 and 5bis) 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 the foregoing Paragraph and Sub-paragraph (5 and 5bis) 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’s and its subsidiaries’ businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in the foregoing Paragraph and Sub-paragraph (5 and 5bis) shall operate in any country in which the Company conducts business while the Grantee is/was employed by the Company. Existing Restrictions - The Company or any company or entity of the WEX 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 or any company or entity of the WEX Group, (c) solicitation or hire of employees of the Company or any company or entity of the WEX 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 Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5 or Sub-paragraph 5bis 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 and any company or entity of the WEX 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 or any company or entity of the WEX Group. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event he/she breaches any part of Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5 or Sub-paragraph 5bis of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company or any company or entity of the WEX 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Grantee further understands and agrees that if he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 5 or Sub-paragraph 5bis, 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 any company or entity of the WEX Group, or until the Company or any company or entity of the WEX 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 employment with the Company for any reason, 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. Communication - While the Grantee is employed with the Company 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 Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5 and Sub-paragraph 5bis 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 Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5, or Sub- paragraph 5bis 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 Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5, or Sub-paragraph 5bis are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Severability - If any one or more provisions of Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5, Sub-paragraph 5bis or Sub- paragraph 5ter 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 Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5, Sub-paragraph 5bis or Sub-paragraph 5ter 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. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraph 4, Paragraph 5, Sub-paragraph 5bis or Sub-paragraph 5ter, upon termination of his/her employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. 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-paragraph 5ter 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. No Rights to Continued Employment or Service: The following provision supplements Paragraph 8 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,

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 or service contract (if any). Tax Obligations: 10. Tax Obligations. The following provisions replace Sub-paragraph 10(a) and Sub-paragraph 10(b) of the Agreement: (a) As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that he/she 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. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any taxes are payable with respect to the Award prior to the delivery of any Common Stock to the Grantee in settlement of any vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit, the Company shall withhold such taxes from any other amounts payable to the Grantee, insofar as permitted by law. (b) Notwithstanding Sub-paragraph 10(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 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. The following provision supplements Paragraph 10 of the Agreement: Paragraph 10 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. Amendments; Severability: The following provision replaces Sub-paragraph 13(b) of the Agreement in its entirety: (b) The provisions of this Agreement are severable, such that in the event any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, this provision shall be reduced to what is legally acceptable and the remainder of that provision and this Agreement will nevertheless be binding and enforceable. Data Privacy: 16. 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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/. Imposition of Other Requirements: 17. 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: 18. 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: 19. 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;

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 (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. Brazil The Plan: The following provision supplements Paragraph 1 of the Agreement: The Grantee’s participation in the Plan is absolutely voluntary. Award: The following provision supplements Paragraph 2 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. Confidential and Proprietary Information: The following provisions replace Paragraph 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/or its subsidiaries, 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 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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: The following provisions replace Paragraph 5 of the Agreement in its entirety: 5A. Non-Solicitation. In exchange for the Award(s) of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units 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 him/her, the Grantee agrees that during his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries 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, 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, 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 and/or its subsidiaries 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 and/or its subsidiaries 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’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 and/or its subsidiaries; (d) Solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company and/or its subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company and/or its subsidiaries or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company and/or its subsidiaries; 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 and/or its subsidiaries or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company and/or its subsidiaries; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company and/or its subsidiaries within sixty (60) days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or his/her subsequent employer.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 5B. Non-Competition. Subject to the “Additional Provisions” Paragraph below, in exchange for the Award(s) of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units 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 him/her, the Grantee agrees that during his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries 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, 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 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-paragraph 5B, 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 his/her 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 Paragraph shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries, 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 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’s and its subsidiaries’ businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Paragraph 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 his/her 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- paragraphs 3(a) and 3(b) above and as determined pursuant to Schedule 1, the parties hereby agree that such future vestings are sufficient and reasonable compensation for the non-competition period that would end twelve (12) months after the Vesting Date. In the event the Grantee breaches his/her obligation to non-compete, the Company shall immediately stop making payments, 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-paragraph 5B 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. If the Company or its subsidiary decides to reduce the restrictive period, the post-termination compensation for such period, set forth in this Sub-paragraph 5B, 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- paragraph 5B, except that if the Grantee’s termination is due to Retirement, a 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 he/she 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. 5C. Additional Restrictions. Except as required by law, 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, the Grantee shall not, directly or through others: (a) provide any Confidential and Proprietary 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 (v) any person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (any such person described in clauses (i) to (v), 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 5D. Additional Provisions. The Company and/or its subsidiaries 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 and/or its subsidiaries, (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 Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B and/or Sub- paragraph 5C 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’s business. The Grantee also acknowledges and agrees that the opportunity to participate in the Award and/or the compensation he/she will receive under Sub-paragraph 5B above is sufficient and fair compensation in exchange for the post-termination restrictions imposed. The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event he/she breaches any part of Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B and/or Sub-paragraph 5C, the damages to the Company and/or its subsidiaries would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages (for economic and moral damages) and 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 he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B and/or Sub- paragraph 5C, 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. Furthermore, in the event the Grantee breaches any of his/her obligations under Paragraph 4, Sub- paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B and/or Sub-paragraph 5C, the Grantee shall, in addition to any other remedy available under this Agreement, by law or equity, pay a penalty to the Company equivalent to his/her last annual salary (i.e., twelve (12) monthly salaries), indexed by the Brazilian consumer price index and with interest of one percent (1%) per month until full payment. In the event of a breach of the non-disclosure of confidential information and/or non-compete obligation, in addition to the penalty established above and any other remedies available under this Agreement by law or equity, the Grantee shall pay a daily penalty of USD500 (five hundred U.S. dollars) per day the violation persists. If any one or more provisions of Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B, Sub-paragraph 5C and/or Sub-Paragraph 5D 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 Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B, Sub-paragraph 5C and/or Sub-Paragraph 5D 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 his/her employment with the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries for any reason other than Retirement, or (ii) in the event of termination of employment due to Retirement, the twelve (12) month period

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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/or any of its subsidiaries and continuing thereafter until (i) twelve (12) months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries 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 Paragraphs 4 and 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5, upon termination of his/her employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Termination of Employment: The following provision replaces the second paragraph of Paragraph 6 of the Agreement: For purposes of the Plan and the Award, a termination of employment shall be deemed to have occurred on the date upon which the Grantee ceases to perform active employment duties for the Company or any of its subsidiaries (for any reason whatsoever) following the provision of any notification of termination or resignation from employment, and without regard to any period of notice of termination of employment (whether expressed or implied); the Company, in its sole discretion, shall determine when the Grantee is no longer actively providing employment services for purposes of the Award (including whether the Grantee may still be considered to be actively providing employment services while on a leave of absence). Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Award, this Agreement or any other agreement (written or oral) to the contrary, 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 whatsoever, 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). 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. Governing Law and Venue: The following provision replaces Paragraph 9 of the Agreement in its entirety:

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Paragraph 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10. 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 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 Paragraph 10. Amendments; Severability: The following provision replaces Paragraph 13 of the Agreement in its entirety:

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 13. Amendments; Severability. This Agreement may be amended at any time by the Committee, provided that no amendment may, without the consent of the Grantee, materially and adversely affect the Grantee’s rights with respect to the Award. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, such that in the event any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remainder of this Agreement will nevertheless be binding and enforceable. Compliance with Law: 16. Compliance with Law. By accepting the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the Grantee agrees to comply with applicable Brazilian laws and to report and pay any and all applicable Tax-Related Items associated with the Grantee’s receipt and sale of shares of Common Stock acquired through his or her participation in the Plan and the receipt of any dividends on such shares of Common Stock. Nature of Award: 17. 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) the Grantee is making an investment decision; (c) the shares of Common Stock will be issued to the Grantee only if the vesting conditions are met and any necessary services are rendered by the Grantee over the vesting period; (d) 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; (e) 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; (f) 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; (g) 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; (h) 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; (i) 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; (j) all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (k) 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; (l) 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,

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 including, but not limited to, calculating any vacation, vacation premium, thirteenth (13th) salary, FGTS contributions, notice of termination, severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, or end-of-service payments; bonuses; long-service awards; pension, retirement, or welfare benefits; or similar payments; (m) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Performance-Based 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; (n) 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 (o) 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. Language: 18. Language. The Grantee warrants and represents that he/she 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: 19. 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: 20. 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: 21. 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 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 Paragraph. (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/her performance under this Agreement, including agreeing to the Processing of the necessary Personal Data is purely voluntary. The Grantee may end his/her participation in the Plan, terminate this Agreement or deny or withdraw his/her consent to the transfer of his/her Personal Data at any time. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later withdraws his/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. Any Consent Withdrawal shall not affect the lawfulness of Processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Non-Competition. 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 (1) with respect to all Grantees based in Ontario, continuing thereafter until (Y) twelve (12) months following the termination of his/her employment 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 his/her last day of employment with the Company or (2) with respect to all other Grantees, (i) (Y) twelve (12) months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company or (Z) in the event of termination due to Retirement, twelve (12) months following the

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 his/her last day of employment with the Company, or (ii) (Y) six (6) months following the termination of his/her employment 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 his/her last day of employment with the Company, 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, 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 Paragraph, 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 within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company 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 his/her 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 (collectively the “Business”). For purposes of this Paragraph, the “Restricted Area” is Canada. The restrictions in this Paragraph shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of his/her employment with the Company, 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 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. 5C. Additional Provisions. 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 Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B or Sub-paragraph 5C 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 he/she breaches any part of Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B or Sub-paragraph 5C of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable. Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable legal 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 he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Sub-paragraphs 5A or 5B, 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 Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B or Sub-paragraph 5C 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 Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B or Sub-paragraph 5C 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 his/her employment with the Company, 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 his/her employment with the Company, 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 Paragraphs 4 and 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A, Sub-paragraph 5B and Sub- paragraph 5C, upon termination of his/her employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

Imposition of Other Requirements: 17. Imposition of Other Requirements.

(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+.

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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.

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. (f) 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. (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 addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data.

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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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.

(b) Notwithstanding Sub-paragraph 10(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 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.

(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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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/. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 20. 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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, individual or collective dismissal or objective grounds, whether adjudged or recognized to be without cause. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee has read and specifically accepts the vesting and termination conditions in the Agreement. The Grantee further acknowledges the following: (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. Ireland The Grantee is employed either by Optal Financial Europe Limited or WEX Europe Limited, a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company (a “Group Company” and collectively, with all other subsidiaries of the Company, the “Group Companies”); (each, respectively, the “Employer”).

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Grantee may be held liable for any consequential damages resulting from such failure. 4.10. The Grantee agrees that the Employer may send a copy of this Agreement to, or otherwise make the provisions of Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 hereby agrees that he/she will at the request and cost of the Employer enter into a direct agreement or undertaking with any Group Company whereby he/she will accept restrictions and provisions corresponding to the restrictions and provisions in this Paragraph 5 (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. 5B.4. If the Grantee’s employment transfers by operation of law to a third party (the “Transferee”), this Paragraph 5 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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. 5B.5. Each of the restrictions contained in this Sub-paragraph 5B, each definition set out in Sub- paragraph 5A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub- paragraph 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. 5B.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. 5B.7. 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. 5B.8. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5, upon termination of his/her employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Employer. 5B.9. 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 Employment: The following provisions replace Paragraph 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8. No Rights to Continued Employment. (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 his/her office or employment with his/her employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by his/her participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which he/she may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of his/her office or employment with any such company for any reasons

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 his/her 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 Paragraph 9 of the Agreement in its entirety: 9. 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 Paragraph 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10. 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 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 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 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.

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. 5B.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 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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-paragraph 5B.2, it being understood that the Grantee’s obligations will continue in perpetuity. 5B.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 Paragraph 4 or Sub-paragraph 5B 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. 5B.4 The Grantee hereby agrees that he/she will at the request and cost of the Employer enter into a direct agreement or undertaking with any Group Company whereby he/she will accept restrictions and provisions corresponding to the restrictions and provisions in this Sub- paragraph 5B (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. 5B.5 If the Grantee’s employment transfers by operation of law to a third party (the “Transferee”), this Sub-paragraph 5B 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. 5B.6 Each of the restrictions contained in this Sub-paragraph 5B, each definition set out in Sub- paragraph 5A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub- paragraph 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. 5B.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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 the date on which the Grantee accepts or otherwise agrees to become employed by, contracted to, or otherwise affiliated with such person or entity. 5B.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 Paragraphs 4 and 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. 5B.9 Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraph 4, Sub-paragraph 5A and Sub-paragraph 5B, upon termination of his/her 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 Employment: The following provisions replace Paragraph 8 of the Agreement in its entirety: 8. No Rights to Continued Employment. (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 his/her office or employment with his/her employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by his/her participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which he/she may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of his/her 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 his/her 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 Paragraph 9 of the Agreement in its entirety:

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 9. 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 Paragraph 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10. Tax Obligations. As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that he/she 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. Amendments; Severability: Paragraph 13 Sub-paragraph (b) of the Agreement does not apply. Insider Trading Restrictions: 16. Insider Trading Restrictions. (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), 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Data Privacy: 17. 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. (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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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/. Language: 18. Language. The Grantee warrants and represents that he/she 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: 19. 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: 20. 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.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 21. 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. 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 Paragraph 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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: The following provisions replace Paragraph 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 and/or its subsidiaries, with whom the Grantee had a business relationship and/or dealings, to leave the employ of the Company and/or its subsidiaries or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company and/or its subsidiaries; 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 and/or its subsidiaries become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company and/or its subsidiaries; or hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company and/or its subsidiaries; (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-paragraph 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, 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 his/her 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 Paragraph shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of his/her employment with the Company and/or its subsidiaries, 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 4, 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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. 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 Paragraph 5, “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 Paragraph 5, “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 Paragraph 5, 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 and/or its subsidiaries 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)

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 solicitation of customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company and/or its subsidiaries, (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 Paragraph 5. 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 he/she breaches any part of Paragraphs 4 or 5, 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 he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 5, 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. The parties undertake and agree that the restrictive covenants outlined in Paragraph 5 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 Paragraph 5 (resulting from any combination of the wording in this Paragraph 5, 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 Paragraph 5 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 Paragraph 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 his/her own accord to agree to the restrictive covenants contained within this Paragraph 5 in exchange for the consideration that the Company is providing as outlined herein.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5, upon termination of his/her 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 Employment or Service: The following provision supplements Paragraph 8 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). Tax Obligations: Paragraph 10 Sub-paragraph (b) of the Agreement does not apply. Amendments; Severability: Paragraph 13 Sub-paragraph (b) of the Agreement does not apply. Imposition of Other Requirements: 16. 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: 17. 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: 18. 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.

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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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/. Additional Acknowledgements and Authorizations: 20. 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 United Kingdom 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 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. The Grantee is employed either by WEX Europe Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, WEX Europe UK Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or WEX Europe Services Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (each a “Group Company” and collectively, with all other subsidiaries of the Company, the “Group Companies”); (each, respectively, the “Employer”).

If the Grantee’s employment transfers by operation of law to a third party (the “Transferee”), Paragraphs 4 and 5 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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. 5I. Each of the restrictions contained in this Paragraph 5, each definition set out in Sub-paragraph 5A, each limb of such definition and each operative word within each Sub-paragraph 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. 5J. 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. 5K. 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. 5L. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5, upon termination of his/her employment, the Grantee shall promptly sign and deliver the Certificate of Compliance Post Termination in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Employer. 5M. 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 Employment or Service: The following provisions supplement Paragraph 8 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). The rights and obligations of the Grantee under the terms of his/her office or employment with his/her employing entity, any past or present subsidiary, or associated or affiliate company of the Company shall not be affected by his/her participation in the Plan or the grant of this Award or any right which he/she may have to participate therein, and the Grantee hereby waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of his/her 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 his/her ceasing to have rights under the Plan or being entitled to

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 Paragraph 9 of the Agreement in its entirety: 9. Governing Law. Save for taxation and the Paragraphs which have been replaced or amended for the United Kingdom as set forth herein (Paragraphs 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 13, 16, 18, 19) 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. Tax Obligations: The following provisions replace Paragraph 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: 10. Tax Obligations. As a condition to the granting of the Award and the vesting thereof, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that he/she 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". Amendments; Severability: Paragraph 13 Sub-paragraph (b) of the Agreement does not apply.

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 Data Privacy: 16. 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. (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 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 his/her employment with the Company 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 Paragraphs 4 and 5 before requesting or accepting such an offer. If the Grantee fails to provide

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 are later found to be enforceable in whole or in part. Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5, upon termination of his/her 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 Paragraph 5: The provisions of Sub-paragraph 5(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-paragraphs 5(a), 5(b), 5(c) and 5(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 Paragraph 5.

United States - Massachusetts Only Non-Competition The following provisions replace Paragraph 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 continuing thereafter (1) with respect to Sub-paragraphs 5(a) through 5(d), (i) until twelve

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 (12) months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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-paragraph 5(e), until twelve (12) months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company for any reason and (3) with respect to Sub-paragraph 5(f), in perpetuity, 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, 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’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 his/her 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-paragraph 5(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 employment with the Company or within six (6) months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company 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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 currently sold or to the best of his/her 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 Paragraph 5 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 Paragraph shall not be construed to prevent the Grantee from, following the termination of his/her employment with the Company, 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 Paragraph 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 Paragraph 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’s and its subsidiaries’ businesses are conducted internationally and agrees that the provisions in this Paragraph 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 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-paragraph 5(e). This Sub- paragraph 5(e), only, shall not apply if the Grantee is terminated without Cause or laid off. For purposes of this Sub-paragraph 5(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-paragraph 4(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

 

ACTIVEUS 192813907v.17 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 he/she breaches any part of Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 5, 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- paragraph 5(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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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 Paragraphs 4 or 5 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.
