On June 7, 2013, WEX Inc.

(collectively, the "Contracts"). The Contracts have an aggregate notional amount of 11,605,826 gallons of gasoline and diesel fuel and will expire on a monthly basis during the last three quarters of 2014.

The Contracts lock in a weighted average retail floor price of approximately $3.37 per gallon and a weighted average retail ceiling price of approximately $3.43 per gallon.
