Fleet The fleet segment provides customers with payment and transaction processing
services specifically designed for the needs of the vehicle fleet industry. This segment
also provides information management and account services to these fleet customers.
MasterCard The MasterCard segment provides customers with a payment processing
solution for their corporate purchasing and transaction monitoring needs. The MasterCard
products are used by businesses to facilitate purchases of products and utilize our
information management capabilities.
Total fleet transactions processed increased 16 percent from the second quarter of
2007 to 72.9 million. Payment processing transactions increased 5 percent to 55.9
million, and transaction processing transactions increased 72 percent to 17.0 million.
The increase in transaction processing transactions is primarily from our acquisition of
Pacific Pride during the first quarter of 2008.
Average expenditure per payment processing transaction increased 31 percent to $78.72
from $60.10 for the same period last year. This increase was predominantly driven by
higher average retail fuel prices. The average fuel price per gallon during the three
months ended June 30, 2008, was $3.96, a 34 percent increase over the same period last
year.
Realized losses on our fuel price derivatives were $13.2 million compared to realized
losses of $5.6 million for the second quarter of 2007.
Credit losses in the fleet segment were $10.1 million for the three months ended June
30, 2008, versus $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Credit losses in
the fleet segment for the three months ended March 31, 2008, totaled $9.8 million. The
current quarters provision for credit losses is consistent with the results of the
preceding quarter and management expectations. We continue to have success managing our
credit exposure with our proprietary credit scoring and collection tools. While we cannot
totally limit our exposure to losses in a period of economic decline, we do have a
positive history of continued customer payment in economic downturns. Our fleet customers
overall remain more than 99 percent current.
Total MasterCard purchase volume grew $158 million to $623 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of 34 percent over the same period last year.
Growth was primarily driven by spend on single use account cards.
We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the second quarter of
2008.

A 34 percent increase in the average price per gallon of fuel resulted in $21.4
million of additional revenue.
A 5 percent increase in payment processing transactions resulted in additional
revenues of $3.2 million.
An 11 basis point decline in the net payment processing rate resulted in a $4.5
million decrease in revenue. Our payment processing fees are generally based upon a
percentage of the total transaction amount; however, they may also be based on a fixed
amount charged per transaction. The fixed component of these fees is a contributing
factor to the decline in our net payment processing rate.

A 2 percent decrease in gallons per transaction resulted in lower revenues of $1.5
million.
A 34 percent increase in the average price per gallon of fuel resulted in $38.6
million of additional revenue.
A 5 percent increase in payment processing transactions resulted in additional
revenues of $5.8 million.
An 11 basis point decline in the net payment processing rate resulted in an $8.6
million decrease in revenue. As discussed above, our payment processing fees have a fixed
component. The fixed component of these fees is a contributing factor to the decline in
our net payment processing rate.
A 2 percent decrease in gallons per transaction resulted in lower revenues of $1.8
million.
Salary and other personnel expenses increased $2.5 million. The prior year period does
not have expenses related to TelaPoint, which was acquired in August 2007, and Pacific
Pride, which was acquired in February 2008. Salary and other personnel expenses related
to these acquisitions totaled $1.1 million. Additional stock-based compensation and
short-term incentive programs contributed $0.6 million to the increase. The remaining
change was related to multiple line items, such as medical and dental benefits, travel,
recruitment and contractors, none of which were individually significant.
Service fees increased $1.9 million. This increase included $0.8 million for costs
associated with an acquisition that did not materialize, $0.4 million for legal and
consulting fees related to the investigation of additional market opportunities and $0.3
million related to Pacific Pride. The remaining change was related to multiple line
items, none of which were individually significant.
Credit losses increased $7.1 million. We generally measure our credit loss performance
by calculating credit losses as a percentage of total fuel expenditures on payment
processing transactions (Fuel Expenditures). This metric for credit losses was 22.8
basis points of Fuel Expenditures compared to 9.3 basis points of Fuel Expenditures for
the same period last year. The increase was driven by higher charge-offs in our fleet
portfolios. Charge-offs, net of recoveries, were $4.6 million higher compared to the same
period in 2007. The remaining increase in the provision is primarily the result of higher
reserve rates and accounts receivable balances.
Table of Contents
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $1.6 million due to the addition of
capital assets as we enhance our product features and functionality and from the
amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisitions of TelaPoint and Pacific
Pride.
Operating interest expense increased $0.2 million. Our average operating debt balance,
which consists of our deposits and borrowed federal funds, totaled $699.4 million for the
second quarter of this year as compared to our average operating
debt balance of $569.6 million for the second quarter of 2007. While a decrease in weighted
average interest rates to 4.3 percent from 5.3 percent a year ago resulted in a decrease to
operating interest expense of $1.5 million, our increased borrowings, again attributable to
higher Fuel Expenditures for the period, caused overall operating interest expense to
increase. Changes in interest rates and Fuel Expenditures may create volatility in our
operating interest expense.
Salary and other personnel expenses increased $3.4 million. The prior year period does
not have expenses related to TelaPoint, which was acquired in August 2007, and Pacific
Pride, which was acquired in February 2008. Salary and other personnel expenses related
to these acquisitions totaled $1.6 million. Additional stock-based compensation and
short-term incentive programs contributed $0.9 million to the increase. The remaining
change was related to multiple line items, such as medical and dental benefits, travel,
recruitment and contractors, none of which were individually significant.
Service fees increased $2.8 million. This increase included $0.9 million for costs
associated with acquisitions that did not materialize, $0.5 million for tax and
accounting service fee increases, $0.4 million for legal and consulting fees related to
the investigation of additional market opportunities and $0.3 million related to Pacific
Pride. The remaining change was related to multiple line items, none of which were
individually significant.
Credit losses increased $11.1 million. Credit losses were 25.2 basis points of Fuel
Expenditures compared to 15.5 basis points of Fuel Expenditures for the same period last
year. The increase was driven by higher charge-offs in our fleet portfolios. Charge-offs,
net of recoveries, were $7.2 million higher compared to the same period in 2007. The
remaining increase in the provision is primarily the result of higher reserve rates and
accounts receivable balances.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $2.7 million due to the addition of
capital assets as we enhance our product features and functionality and from the
amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisitions of TelaPoint and Pacific
Pride.
Operating interest expense increased $2.0 million. Our average operating debt balance
for the first half of this year totaled $642.6 million as compared to our average
operating debt balance of $506.3 million for the first half of 2007. While a decrease in
weighted average interest rates to 4.6 percent from 5.3 percent in same period last year
resulted in a decrease to operating interest expense of $1.7 million, our increased
borrowings caused overall operating interest expense to increase.

Service fee expenses are based on a purchase volume which has increased period over
period primarily due to the new business from our single use account card.
The provision for credit loss was higher by $0.7 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2008, and $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to
the same periods last year. The increases were predominantly the result of higher reserve
rates.

These exhibits have been filed with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
1) | Purpose . The purpose of the Wright Express Corporation Non-Employee Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) is to enable directors of Wright Express Corporation (the Company) who are not also employees of the Company to defer the receipt of certain compensation earned in their capacity as non-employee directors of the Company. | |
2) | Eligibility; Participation . Directors of the Company who are not also employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (Directors) are eligible to participate in the Plan. An eligible Director may commence participation by submitting to the Committee (as defined below) or its designee, a written election to defer eligible compensation. | |
3) | Administration . The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the Committee). The Committee shall have the authority to adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the Plans intent and to interpret, construe and implement the provisions thereof. Determinations made by the Committee with respect to the Plan, any deferral made hereunder and any Directors account shall be final and binding on all persons, including but not limited to the Company, each Director participating in the Plan and such Directors beneficiaries. | |
4) | Deferral of Fees . Subject to such rules and procedures that the Committee may establish from time to time, and subject to any determinations of the Company to pay compensation to Directors from time to time, a Director may elect to defer under the Plan all or a portion of his or her annual retainer fees, as well as such other fees, stipends, incentive awards and other payments determined by the Committee to be eligible for deferral from time to time that are, in each case, otherwise payable in cash and restricted stock units (or other equity-based forms of payment) in accordance with the Companys policies as in effect from time to time (such compensation, collectively, Fees). | |
In order to defer all or any portion of a Directors Fees, the Director must complete a deferral election in such form, and at such time, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Once a Director has elected to defer any portion of the Directors Fees, the election shall continue in force for the remainder of the Directors service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that a Director may revoke his or her deferral election for subsequent calendar years. Such revocation shall remain in effect until the Director submits a new deferral election pursuant to the procedures established by the Committee. | ||
5) | Form of Deferral . The Company shall establish a separate deferred compensation |
account on its books in the name of each Director who has elected to participate in the Plan. A number of Restricted Stock Units (as defined in the Companys 2005 Equity and Incentive Plan or a successor plan) (the Stock Plan) payable in shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share (Company Stock) or, in the Committees discretion, cash shall be credited to each such Directors account as of each date (a Deferral Date) on which amounts deferred under the Plan would otherwise have been paid to such Director. The Restricted Stock Units credited to a participating Directors account under the Plan shall be issued under the Stock Plan. |
(A) | Deferral of Cash Payments. The number of Restricted Stock Units credited to a Directors account as of each Deferral Date shall be calculated by dividing the amount so deferred by the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Stock Plan) of a share of Company Stock as of such Deferral Date. The Restricted Stock Units so credited, shall be immediately vested and non-forfeitable and shall become payable as set forth in Section 8. | ||
(B) | Deferral of RSU Awards. The Directors account shall also be credited with the number of compensatory Restricted Stock Units awarded under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan that the Director has elected to defer, if any. The Restricted Stock Units so credited shall be subject to such vesting and other restrictions as are set forth in such plan. |
Except as set forth herein, the terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Units credited to Directors accounts under the Plan shall be governed by the Stock Plan, including, but not limited to, the equitable adjustment provisions set forth in Section 5 thereof and provisions with respect to a Change in Control (as defined in the Stock Plan). | ||
6) | Dividend Equivalents . Additional Restricted Stock Units shall be credited to a Directors account as of each date (a Dividend Date) on which cash dividends and/or special dividends and distributions are paid with respect to Company Stock, provided that at least one Restricted Stock Unit is credited to such Directors account as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. The number of Restricted Stock Units to be credited to a Directors account under the Plan as of any Dividend Date shall equal the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the product of (i) the number of the vested and nonforfeitable Restricted Stock Units credited to such account on the record date for such dividend or distribution and (ii) the per share dividend (or distribution value) payable on such Dividend Date, by (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock as of such Dividend Date. | |
7) | Restrictions of Transfer . The right of a Director or that of any other person to the payment of deferred compensation or other benefits under the Plan may not be assigned, transferred, pledged or encumbered except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. | |
8) | Payment of Restricted Stock Units . Each Director (or his or her beneficiary) shall receive a one-time distribution of Common Stock with respect to all vested and nonforfeitable Restricted Stock Units then credited to the Directors account |
under the Plan on the date which is 200 days immediately following the date upon which such Directors service as a member of the Companys Board of Directors terminates for any reason. The number of shares of the Company Stock payable upon such distribution shall equal the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to such Directors account as of the date of such distribution. Fractional shares shall be payable in cash. | ||
If a Director dies prior to the complete distribution of his or her account, the balance of the account shall be paid as soon as practicable to the Directors designated beneficiary or beneficiaries. A designation of beneficiary shall be made by the Director using the form prescribed by the Committee and may be changed by the Director at any time by filing a new form. If no beneficiary is designated or no designated beneficiary survives the Director, payment shall be made to the estate of the Director. | ||
9) | Unfunded Plan: Creditors Rights . The Plan is intended to be an unfunded deferred compensation plan. The obligation of the Company under the Plan is purely contractual and benefits under the Plan shall not be funded or secured in any way. A Director or any beneficiary shall have only the interest of an unsecured general creditor of the Company in respect of the Restricted Stock Units credited to such Directors account and benefits payable under the Plan. | |
10) | Successors in Interest . The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor or successors of the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise, and for this purpose reference herein to the Company shall be deemed to include any such successor or successors. | |
11) | Governing Law; Interpretation . The Plan shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company intends that transactions under the Plan shall be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, unless otherwise determined by the Company. | |
12) | Termination and Amendment of the Plan . The Board of Directors of the Company may terminate the Plan at any time; provided, that termination of the Plan shall not adversely affect the rights of a Director or beneficiary thereof with respect to amounts previously deferred under the Plan without the consent of such Director and that of such Directors beneficiary. The Board of Directors of the Company may amend the Plan at any time and from time to time; provided, however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect the rights of any Director or beneficiary thereof with respect to amounts previously deferred under the Plan. | |
13) | Effective Date . The Plan was initially adopted on February 16, 2005. The Plan, as amended and restated herein, shall be effective January 1, 2007. |
