Wright Express Corporation
Amended and Restated 2010 Growth Grant Long Term Incentive Program
Award Date: March 3, 2010
Amendment and Restatement Date: April 8, 2011
Unit Allocation Ratio:
                         
Wright Express            
Job Category   NQSOs   PSUs   RSUs
CEO(1)

(1)   For the CEO, the actual units approved by the committee were determined based on a specific target value which was split evenly between options and PSUs. The number of shares in the Option were determined based on a Black-Scholes valuation on February 17, 2010. The Black-Scholes valuation used the same stock price assumption as the PSUs and RSUs and results in the actual number of shares in the option being greater than the number of PSU shares.
 
    NQSO = Non-Qualified Stock Option
 
    RSU = Restricted Stock Unit
 
    PSU = Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit
Vesting Schedule:
Stock Options and Restricted Stock Units
•   The Non-Qualified Stock Options (NQSOs) and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) vest at a rate of one third each year over a 3 year period beginning on the first anniversary of award date. Each tranche of NQSOs also includes an additional two-year holding period from the date of vesting. During this holding period, NQSOs can be exercised but shares acquired on such exercise may not be sold with the exception of those shares which may be sold to cover the exercise price and tax withholding applicable to such exercise.
Performance Based Restricted Stock Units — Section 16 Officers
The Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (PSUs) for persons who were Section 16 officers of the Company on the date of grant of the Award shall vest according to the following vesting schedule based on performance:

•   Adjusted Net Income means Adjusted Net Income as reported in the Corporation’s Form 10-K filing reporting the Corporation’s results for the full year 2012 and may be adjusted to exclude the following items (if any): losses from discontinued operations, the cumulative effects of changes in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, any one-time charge or dilution resulting from any acquisition or divestiture, the effect of changes to our effective federal or state tax rates, extraordinary items of loss or expense, and any other unusual or nonrecurring items of loss or expense, including restructuring charges.
 
•   ROIC is calculated as average Operating Income adjusted for realized gains or losses on hedges and tax affected for the period beginning January 1, 2010 and ending December 2012 divided by average Invested Capital for the same period. Invested Capital is defined as Total Assets less the following: Cash, Cash Equivalents, asset or liability for Derivative Instruments, Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses, Income Taxes Payable, Operating Debt, Net Deferred Tax Asset or Liability, and other non-interest bearing liabilities.
 
•   In determining the final payout versus performance, the Compensation Committee may exercise discretion to include all or part of an item of loss or expense including one time and financing charges related to key strategic acquisitions or alliances.

Scenario 1: Performance Based Restricted Stock Units vesting with Interim Milestone vesting
  •   Interim Milestone — PPG Adjusted Total Revenue — Six quarters beginning 01/01/2010 through 06/30/2011 performance equaled $[**] (Target)
 
  •   2012 PPG Adjusted Revenue is $[**] (100% payout)
 
  •   2012 ANI is $[**] (50% payout)
Calculation:
(600 PSUs) multiplied by (60% PPG Adjusted Revenue weight) multiplied by (100% payout)
Plus
(600 PSUs) multiplied by (40% ANI weight) multiplied by (50% payout)
Equals
480 PSUs
Vesting Schedule:
  •   Interim/First vesting event : August 15, 2011
  •   PSUs vesting: 180 (30% of the 600 PSUs granted capped at target)

  •   PSUs vesting: 300 (480 PSUs based on 2012 performance goals minus 180 PSUs previously vested under Interim Milestone)
Scenario 2: Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units vesting with no Interim Milestone vesting
  •   Interim Milestone — PPG Adjusted Total Revenue — Six quarters beginning 01/01/2010 through 06/30/2011 performance equaled $[**] (Miss)
 
  •   2012 PPG Adjusted Revenue is $[**] (100% payout)
 
  •   2012 ANI is $[**] (50% payout)
Calculation:
(600 PSUs) multiplied by (60% PPG Adjusted Revenue weight) multiplied by (100% payout)
Plus

Equals
480 PSUs
