Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On May 9, 2019, at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, the Company’s stockholders approved the WEX Inc. 2019 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”), which had previously been adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors subject to stockholders approval.

Effective upon the approval of the 2019 Plan by the stockholders, no additional awards will be made under the 2010 Plan. All then-outstanding awards under the 2010 Plan will remain in effect and the terms of the 2010 Plan will continue to apply to awards previously granted under the 2010 Plan.

The 2019 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), nonstatutory stock options, SARs, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards and cash awards. The 2019 Plan allows for the issuance of 3,700,000 shares of common stock plus such additional number of shares of common stock (up to 1,501,676 shares) as is equal to (i) the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the 2010 Plan that remain available for grant under the 2010 Plan immediately prior to the stockholder approval of the 2019 Plan and (ii) the number of shares of common stock subject to awards granted under the 2010 Plan, which awards expire, terminate or are otherwise surrendered, cancelled or forfeited or repurchased by the Company pursuant to a contractual repurchase right. Employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors of the Company are eligible to receive awards under the 2019 Plan. However, incentive stock options may only be granted to our employees, employees of our present or future parent or subsidiary corporations, and employees of any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive incentive stock options under the Code. The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized the Compensation Committee to administer certain aspects of the 2019 Plan, including the granting of awards to executive officers.

The description of the 2019 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2019 Plan, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
