Exhibit 10.3

WEX INC.
2021 GRANT

NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

    THIS NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between WEX Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Grantee named on the attached Memorandum (the “Memorandum”) as of the Grant Date indicated in the Memorandum pursuant to the terms and conditions of the WEX Inc. 2019 Amended and Restated Equity and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

    WHEREAS, the Company has the authority under and pursuant to the Plan to grant awards to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries; and

    WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant a nonstatutory stock option (the “Option”) to the Grantee subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.

    In consideration of the provisions contained in this Agreement, the Company and the Grantee agree as follows:

    1.    The Plan.  The Option granted to the Grantee hereunder is made pursuant to the Plan.  A copy of the prospectus for the Plan has been provided to you and the applicable terms of such Plan are incorporated herein by reference.  Terms used in this Agreement which are not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings used or defined in the Plan.

    2.    Award.      Concurrently with the acknowledgement of this Agreement and concurrently with and contingent upon your acknowledgement of the Memorandum, and further subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, including without limitation your agreement to comply with the provisions set forth in Paragraphs 5 and 6 below, the Company hereby awards to the Grantee an Option to acquire the number of shares of Company common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), indicated in the Memorandum at the exercise price per share of Common Stock (the “Exercise Price”) indicated in the Memorandum.  Unless earlier terminated, this Option shall expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the Final Exercise Date indicated in the Memorandum. The Award is not remuneration for services and, therefore, is not to be considered salary, or of salary nature, for any purpose, whatsoever. In accepting this Award, the Grantee agrees to be bound by any clawback policy that the Company has adopted or may adopt in the future.

    3.    Vesting of Options.  
(a)    This Option will become exercisable (“vest”) as to one-third of the original number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option on the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date.  The right of exercise shall be cumulative so that to the extent the Option is not exercised in any period to the maximum extent permissible it shall continue to be exercisable, in whole or in part, with respect to all shares of Common Stock subject thereto for which it is 
1

Exhibit 10.3

vested until the earlier of the Final Exercise Date or the termination of this option under Paragraph 4 hereof or the Plan.  
(b)    Notwithstanding Paragraph 3(a), upon the Grantee’s death, the Option shall become immediately and fully vested, subject to any terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Compensation Committee appointed by the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). 
(c)    Notwithstanding Paragraph 3(a), upon a “Change in Control”, if the surviving entity does not agree to assume the obligations set forth in this Agreement, then the Award shall become immediately and fully vested, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan or imposed by the Committee.  “Change in Control” shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.    
    4.    Exercise of Option.

    (a)     Form of Exercise.  Each election to exercise this Option shall be in writing, signed by the Grantee, and received by the Company at its principal office, accompanied by this agreement, and payment in full in the manner provided in the Plan. The Grantee may purchase less than the number of shares of Common Stock covered hereby, provided that no partial exercise of this Option may be for any fractional share.

    (b)    Continuous Relationship with Company Required.  Except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 4, this Option may not be exercised unless the Grantee, at the time he or she exercises this Option, is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an employee or officer of, a Director of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company as defined in Section 424(e) or (f) of the United States Internal Revenue Code (an “Eligible Grantee”).

    (c)    Termination of Relationship with the Company.  If the Grantee ceases to be an Eligible Grantee for any reason, then, except as provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) below, the right to exercise this Option shall terminate three months after such cessation (but in no event after the Final Exercise Date), provided that this Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Grantee was entitled to exercise this Option on the date of such cessation, and provided further that the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion agree to accelerate the vesting of the Option, upon termination of employment or otherwise, for any reason or no reason, but shall have no obligation to do so.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee, prior to the Final Exercise Date, violates the non-competition or confidentiality provisions of any employment contract, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement or other agreement between the Grantee and the Company and/or its subsidiaries or violates the provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 hereof, the right to exercise this Option shall terminate immediately upon such violation.

    (d)    Exercise upon Death or Disability.  If the Grantee dies or becomes disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code) prior to the Final Exercise Date while he or she is an Eligible Grantee and the Company and/or its subsidiaries has not terminated such relationship for “Cause” as specified in paragraph (e) below, this Option shall be exercisable, within the period of one year following the date of death or disability of the Grantee, by the Grantee (or in the case of death by an authorized transferee), 
2

Exhibit 10.3

provided that this Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that this Option was exercisable by the Grantee on the date of his or her death or disability (after taking into account the vesting provisions of Paragraph 3 hereof), and further provided that this Option shall not be exercisable after the Final Exercise Date.

    (e)    Termination for Cause.  If, prior to the Final Exercise Date, the Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company and/or its subsidiaries for Cause (as defined below), the right to exercise this Option shall terminate immediately upon notification by the Company and/or its subsidiaries of termination of employment.  If, prior to the Final Exercise Date, the Grantee is given notice by the Company and/or its subsidiaries of the termination of his or her employment by the Company and/or its subsidiaries for Cause, and the effective date of such employment termination is subsequent to the date of delivery of such notice, the right to exercise this option shall be suspended from the time of the delivery of such notice until the earlier of (i) such time as it is determined or otherwise agreed that the Grantee’s employment shall not be terminated for Cause as provided in such notice or (ii) the effective date of such termination of employment (in which case the right to exercise this option shall, pursuant to the preceding sentence, terminate upon the effective date of such termination of employment).  If the Grantee is party to an employment or severance agreement with the Company and/or its subsidiaries that contains a definition of “cause” for termination of employment, “Cause” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in such agreement and shall also include a breach of the terms of this Agreement.  Otherwise, “Cause” shall mean willful misconduct by the Grantee or willful failure by the Grantee to perform his or her responsibilities to the Company and/or its subsidiaries (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 or a breach of this Agreement), 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 and/or its subsidiaries determine, within 30 days after the Grantee’s resignation, that termination for Cause was warranted.

    (f)    Date of Termination; Loss of Rights.  For purposes of the Plan and the Option, 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 and/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.   Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement or any other agreement (written or oral) to the contrary, the Grantee shall not be entitled (and by accepting the Option, 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 the Option 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.

    5.    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 
3

Exhibit 10.3

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 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.

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).  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 
4

Exhibit 10.3

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.

    6.    Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.  In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to 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 for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, 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 days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or his/her subsequent employer; and/or
5

Exhibit 10.3

(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 subsection (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 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 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee.  The restrictions in this 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 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 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing 
6

Exhibit 10.3

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 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable.  Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement.  Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding.  The Grantee further understands and agrees that if he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach.

If any one or more provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.

Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 5 and 6, 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.  

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 Option 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.  As a condition to the granting of the Option, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that he/she is responsible for the payment of income and employment taxes (and any other taxes), if any, payable in connection with the exercise of the Option.

Accordingly, the Grantee agrees to remit to the Company or any applicable subsidiary an amount sufficient to pay such taxes (to the extent 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.  

    11.    Notices.  Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed given when delivered personally, or when deposited in the regular mail, postage prepaid, addressed, as appropriate, to the Grantee at the last address specified in the Grantee’s employment records (or such other address as the Grantee may designate in writing to the Company), or to the Company, 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.  This Agreement may be amended or modified at any time by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.  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 under the Plan, 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.

    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 of the Company underlying or relating to the Option until the issuance of a stock certificate to the Grantee in respect of such Option following exercise.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement is effective as of the date first above written.

Exhibit 10.3

EXHIBIT A

Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement

Country and State Specific Provisions

This Exhibit A includes special terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted to such Grantees 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 Option 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 2021. 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 the receipt of the Option and participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time the Grantee receives the Option, exercises the Option and acquires shares, or sells the Company Stock purchased on such exercise.

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. 

The Plan

The following provision supplements Paragraph 1 of the Agreement:

The Grantee’s participation in the Plan is absolutely voluntary.

Exercise of Option

Continuous Relationship with Company Required
10

Exhibit 10.3

The following provision replaces Paragraph 4 Subsection (b) of the Agreement: 

(b)    Continuous Relationship with Company Required.  Except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 4, this Option may not be exercised unless the Grantee, at the time he or she exercises this Option, is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an employee or officer of or a Director of, the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company as defined in Section 424(e) or (f) of the United States Internal Revenue Code (an “Eligible Grantee”).
Date of Termination; Loss of Rights

The following provision replaces Paragraph 4 Subsection (f) of the Agreement: 

(f)    Date of Termination; Loss of Rights.  For purposes of the Plan and the Option, 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 and/or 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 or this Agreement or any other agreement (written or oral) to the contrary, the Grantee shall not be entitled (and by accepting the Option, 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 the Option 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.
Confidential and Proprietary Information
The following provisions replace Paragraph 5 of the Agreement in its entirety:
5.    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 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 
11

Exhibit 10.3

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 6 of the Agreement in its entirety:
6A.    Non-Solicitation.  In exchange for the Award(s) of the Option to 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 for a period of twelve (12) months 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, 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/
12

Exhibit 10.3

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 days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or his/her subsequent employer.
6B.    Non-Competition.  Subject to the “Additional Provisions” Paragraph below, in exchange for the Award(s) of the Option to 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 for a period of twelve (12) months 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 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, 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 Paragraph 6B, a “Competing Enterprise” means any entity, organization or person engaged, or planning to become engaged, in substantially the same or similar business to that being conducted or actively and specifically planned to be conducted by the Grantee’s employer, during the Grantee’s employment with the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary or any other prior or subsequent employer of the same economic group, or within six 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. 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 
13

Exhibit 10.3

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.
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 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 reduce the post-termination non-compete period or waive the post-termination non-compete obligation of this Paragraph 6B of the Grantee at the time the Company or its subsidiary gives notice of termination of employment to the Grantee, regardless of whether the termination is with or without cause, or within ten calendar (10) 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 Paragraph 6B will be reduced in the same proportion, and, if the Company or its subsidiary decides to waive the Grantee’s post-termination non-compete obligation, then the Grantee shall not be entitled to post-termination compensation, in whole or in part, as provided in this Paragraph 6B.
6C.    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, 
14

Exhibit 10.3

“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 5, 6A and/or 6B 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 Paragraph 6B 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 Paragraphs 5, 6A, and/or 6B, 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 Paragraphs 6A, and/or 6B, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, 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 Paragraphs 5, 6A, and/or 6B, 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 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 Paragraphs 5, 6A, 6B and/or 6C shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Paragraphs 5, 6A, 6B and/or 6C may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.
Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 5 and 6, 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.
15

Exhibit 10.3

Governing Law and Venue
The following provision replaces Paragraph 9 of the Agreement in its entirety:
This Agreement and the legal relations between the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Brazil.  Any disputes shall be brought to and adjudicated by the civil courts of Sao Paulo, SP, Brazil. 

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, vesting or exercise of the Option, the issuance of shares of Company Stock upon exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of shares of Company 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 any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, 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) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares Company Stock acquired at exercise of this Option either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization and without further consent); or (ii) withholding shares of Company Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Option, provided the Company only withholds the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy no more than the maximum statutory withholding amounts.   
Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including up to the maximum permissible statutory rate for the Grantee’s tax jurisdiction(s) in which case the Grantee will have no entitlement to the equivalent amount in shares of Company Stock and may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash in accordance with applicable law.  If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Company Stock, for tax purposes, the Grantee is deemed to have been issued the full number 
16

Exhibit 10.3

of shares of Company Stock; notwithstanding that a number of the shares are held back solely for the purpose of satisfying the withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items.
Finally, the Grantee agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for 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 or deliver the shares of Company Stock or the proceeds of the sale of such shares, if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in Paragraph 10.
Amendments; Severability
The following provision replaces Paragraph 13 of the Agreement in its entirety:
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 Option, 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 Company Stock acquired through his or her participation in the Plan and the receipt of any dividends on such shares of Company Stock.
Nature of Award
17.    Nature of Award. By entering into this Agreement and accepting the grant of the Option evidenced hereby, the Grantee acknowledges, understands, and agrees that: 
(a)the Grantee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;

17

Exhibit 10.3

(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 the Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards of Options or benefits in lieu of Options, 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 Company 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 Company Stock, and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any vacation, vacation premium, 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 Option and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Option 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 Company 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 Company Stock; and

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 Company 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

Exhibit 10.3

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 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 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 
19

Exhibit 10.3

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, Grantee provides consent to the international transfer of 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.  The Company will continue to retain the information that Grantee provided to the Company before Grantee withdrew his/her consent for as long as allowed or required by applicable law.

No Rights to Continued Employment or Service

The following provisions replace Paragraph 8 of the Agreement in its entirety:
8.     No Rights to Continued Employment or Service.  
(a)    Neither this Agreement nor the Award shall be construed as giving the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate such employment.
(b)    The grant of Awards under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Company and the Plan may be suspended or terminated by the Company at any time.

The 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.

9.     Governing Law and Venue.  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.  For purposes of any action, lawsuit or other proceedings brought due to the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, relating to it, or arising from it, you hereby submit to and consent to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of [Maine] (or should such court lack jurisdiction to hear such action, suit or proceeding, in a Maine state court in the city of Portland), and no other courts, where this Award is granted and/or to be performed.
Tax Obligations
The following provisions replace Paragraph 10 of the Agreement in its entirety:

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 Company 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 Company Stock acquired.

Insider Trading Restrictions
16.     Insider Trading Restrictions.

Exhibit 10.3

(b)More specifically, under Article 5:56 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (“Wet op het financieel toezicht”), anyone who has “inside information” related to an issuing company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the Netherlands.  “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of details concerning the issuing company to which the securities relate, which is not public and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the stock price, regardless of the development of the price.  

(c)Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy.

(d)The Grantee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and the Grantee is advised to speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter. 

Data Privacy

17.    Data Privacy.
(a)The Company, in its capacity as Controller, grants Options under the Plan to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries in its sole discretion. In conjunction with the Company’s grant of the Option 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 Options 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 Options 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 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.  
36

Exhibit 10.3

The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

(d)International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States.  The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States.  In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators.  The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent.

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

(f)Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence.  For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on Processing, (v) lodge complaints with competent privacy or data protection authorities in the Grantee’s country of residence, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Grantee’s Personal Data.  To receive clarification regarding the Grantee’s rights or to exercise his or her rights, the Grantee should refer to the relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/ and contact his or her local human resources department. 

(g)Personal Data Retention. The Company and its Service Provider will retain the Grantee’s Personal Data no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was processed for the duration of this Agreement, unless a longer period is required to comply with applicable laws. Retention periods may vary depending on 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 we process your Personal Data, please refer to the 
relevant privacy policy available at https://www.wexinc.com/workday/legal-notices/.

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.

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 and European Economic Area (“EEA+”), and/or (iii) pursue the legitimate interest of complying with legal obligations established outside of the EEA+. 

(c)Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers the Grantee’s Personal Data to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its affiliates, independent service providers based in the United States, which assist the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan (the “Service Provider”).  In the future, the Company may select a different Service Provider and share the Grantee’s Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner.  The Service Provider will open an account for the Grantee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan.  The Grantee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the Service Provider, which is a condition to the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan.

(d)International Data Transfers. The Company and the Service Provider are based in the United States.  The Grantee should note that the Grantee’s country of residence may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States.  In order to protect the Grantee’s privacy, where Personal Data are transferred by or on behalf of the Company to other countries or organizations that have not been recognized as providing regulatory protection similar to the Grantee’s country, the Company contractually obliges its international entities, affiliates and service providers to comply with the applicable data protection laws and principles through standard clauses that have been approved or recognized by the relevant regulators.  The Company also relies on the Grantee’s consent per this Agreement as the legal basis for the transfer of the Grantee’s Personal Data to the United States is the Grantee’s consent.

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

(f)Data Subjects Rights. The Grantee may have a number of rights under the data privacy laws in the Grantee’s country of residence.  For example, the Grantee’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company Processes, (ii) 
47

Exhibit 10.3

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 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 we process your 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 Company 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.

Exhibit 10.3

Non-Solicitation
The following provisions replace Paragraph 6 of the Agreement in its entirety: 
6.    Non-Solicitation. In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to him/her, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Grantee agrees that: 

(a)    During his/her employment with the Company and for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; 

(b)    During his/her employment with the Company and for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, 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;
 
(c)    During his/her employment with the Company and for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, 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 days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or his/her subsequent employer; and/or

(d)    During the term of his/her employment with the Company, the Grantee promises and agrees that he/she will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt 
49

Exhibit 10.3

to engage in any competitive activity relating to the subject matter of his/her employment with the Company or relating to the Company’s business. 

The restrictions in this Paragraph shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company.  The Grantee acknowledges that the Company’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 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 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing Restriction(s), such conflict shall be resolved by giving effect to the provision that provides the greatest protection to the Company that is enforceable under applicable law.  

The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the period of time, geographical scope, activity and subject of the above-noted restrictive covenants imposed by this Agreement are fair, and reasonable and necessary under the circumstances and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company.  The Grantee also acknowledges that in the event he/she breaches any part of Paragraphs 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable.  Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement.  Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding.  The Grantee further understands and agrees that if he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach.

If any one or more provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.  

50

Exhibit 10.3

Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 5 and 6, 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.    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: 

(a)    During his/her employment with the Company and for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, contact, call on, provide advice to, solicit, take away business, divert business, and/or influence or attempt to influence, either directly or indirectly, any customers, clients, and/or patrons or prospective customers, clients and/or patrons of the Company whose entity- or other customer-specific information the Grantee discovered or gained access to as a result of the Grantee’s access to Company Confidential and Proprietary Information; 

(b)    During his/her employment with the Company and for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, 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;
 
(c)    During his/her employment with the Company and for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, utilize the Company’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to solicit or induce, either directly or indirectly, any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the Company; or utilize the Company’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to assist any subsequent employer or any other person, entity or organization, either directly or indirectly, in soliciting or inducing any Company employee to leave the employ of the Company or become employed with or otherwise engaged by any person, entity or organization other than the 
51

Exhibit 10.3

Company; or utilize the Company’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to hire or employ, or assist in the hiring or employment of, either directly or indirectly, any individual employed by the Company within sixty days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or his/her subsequent employer; and/or

(d)    During the term of his/her employment with the Company, the Grantee promises and agrees that he/she will not, in any way, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, lender, investor, corporate officer, board member, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or attempt to engage in any competitive activity relating to the subject matter of his/her employment with the Company or relating to the Company’s business. 

The restrictions in this Paragraph shall not be deemed to prohibit the Grantee from owning not more than one percent (1%) of the total shares of all classes of stock of any publicly held company.  The Grantee acknowledges that the Company’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.

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 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable.

52

Exhibit 10.3

If any one or more provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.

Non-Competition

The following provisions replace Paragraph 6 of the Agreement in its entirety:

53

Exhibit 10.3

6.    Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.  In consideration of the promises contained herein and the Grantee’s access and exposure to Confidential and Proprietary Information provided to 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 for a period of twelve months following the termination of his/her employment with the Company 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, 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 days preceding that individual’s hire by the Grantee or his/her subsequent employer; and/or

(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 subsection (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 months after the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company or its subsidiaries, owned or controlled.  It includes, without limitation:  (i) the 
54

Exhibit 10.3

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 6 shall be effective and binding only to the extent permissible under Rule 5.6 of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct or any similar rule governing the practice of law that is applicable to the Grantee.  The restrictions in this 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.  Grantee acknowledges that the Company’s grant and provision of the Restricted Stock Units, to which Grantee would not be entitled absent execution of this Agreement, constitute fair, reasonable, and mutually agreed upon consideration to support this Section 6(e).  This Section 6(e), only, shall not apply if Grantee is terminated without Cause or laid off.  For purposes of this Section 6(e), only, the term “Cause” shall mean willful misconduct by the Grantee or willful failure by the Grantee to perform his or her responsibilities to the Company (including, without limitation, breach by the Grantee of any provision of any employment, consulting, advisory, nondisclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company), as determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. The Grantee’s employment shall be considered to have been terminated for Cause if the Company determines, within thirty days after the Grantee’s termination, that termination for Cause was warranted.

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 5 or 6 of this Agreement conflict in any way with any Existing 
55

Exhibit 10.3

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 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the damages to the Company would be irreparable.  Therefore, in addition to monetary damages and/or reasonable attorney fees, the Company shall have the right to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement.  Further, the Grantee consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of any proceeding.  The Grantee further understands and agrees that if he/she breaches any covenant set forth in Paragraph 6, the duration of any covenant so breached shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, automatically be tolled from the date of the first breach until the date judicial relief providing effective remedy for such breach or breaches is obtained by the Company, or until the Company states in writing that it will seek no judicial relief for such breach; except that the duration of the covenants contained in Paragraph 6(e), only, shall extend to twenty-four months if Grantee breached his or her fiduciary duty to the Company and/or if Grantee has unlawfully taken, physically or electronically, property belonging to the Company.

If any one or more provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the greatest extent compatible with applicable law as it shall then appear, and the parties expressly agree that any of the provisions of Paragraphs 5 or 6 may be reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled to make such provision enforceable, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the parties consent to the enforcement of such provision as so reformed, modified, revised, edited or blue-penciled.

Mindful of the obligations set forth in Paragraphs 5 and 6, 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.

Grantee is hereby informed that Grantee has the right to consult with counsel prior to signing this Agreement.

Governing Law

The following provision replaces Paragraph 9 of the Agreement in its entirety:

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, except that Section 6(e) only shall be governed by the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts if Grantee was a resident 
56

Exhibit 10.3
