(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) voted to expand the number of directors that constitute the Board from 9 to 10 and elected Eric Duprat as a Class III Director, to serve until the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.  The Board appointed Mr. Duprat to the Audit and Corporate Governance Committees of the Board.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Board has determined that Mr. Duprat is an independent director under applicable NYSE requirements and the Company&#8217;s Corporate Governance Guidelines.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Duprat and any other person pursuant to which he was selected to become a member of the board.

As part of such compensation, Mr. Duprat will be granted a number of restricted stock units (&#8220;RSUs&#8221;) worth the equivalent of $50,000 at the then current stock price on the date of the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. Such RSUs will vest in full on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

Under the new majority vote standard for the election of directors, in any uncontested election of directors, a nominee will be elected to the Board if the votes cast &#8220;for&#8221; such nominee&#8217;s election exceed the votes cast &#8220;against&#8221; such nominee&#8217;s election (with &#8220;abstentions&#8221; and &#8220;broker non-votes&#8221; not counted as votes &#8220;for&#8221; or &#8220;against&#8221; such nominee&#8217;s election). A plurality voting standard, which previously applied to all director elections, remains applicable to any election in which the number of nominees for election as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Company&#8217;s by-laws were also amended to clarify the permissible use of electronic notices and other electronic communications, to make certain updates to conform to changes in the Delaware General Corporation Law, and to make other conforming and clarifying changes.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">A copy of the amended and restated by-laws is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On March 12, 2014, the Board of Directors of WEX Inc. (the "Company") voted to expand the number of directors that constitute the Board from 9 to 10 and elected Eric Duprat as a Class III Director, to serve until the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.  The Board appointed Mr. Duprat to the Audit and Corporate Governance Committees of the Board.
The Board has determined that Mr. Duprat is an independent director under applicable NYSE requirements and the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Duprat and any other person pursuant to which he was selected to become a member of the board.  There are no related person transactions (as defined in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K) between Mr. Duprat and the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.
Mr. Duprat will receive compensation for his service as a non-employee director as described in the Company's Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan, which is attached to this Form 8-K as exhibit 10.1, and which is incorporated herein by reference.  As part of such compensation, Mr. Duprat will be granted a number of restricted stock units ("RSUs") worth the equivalent of $50,000 at the then current stock price on the date of the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. Such RSUs will vest in full on the first anniversary of the date of grant.  Mr. Duprat will enter into the Company's standard form of director indemnification agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 8, 2009, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Changes in Fiscal Year
.
On March 12, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amended and restated version of the Company's by-laws effective immediately.
Article II, Section 9 of the Company's by-laws (relating to the voting standards for stockholder action) was amended to implement a majority vote standard for election of directors and to clarify the voting standard that is required to approve other matters.  Under the new majority vote standard for the election of directors, in any uncontested election of directors, a nominee will be elected to the Board if the votes cast "for" such nominee's election exceed the votes cast "against" such nominee's election (with "abstentions" and "broker non-votes" not counted as votes "for" or "against" such nominee's election). A plurality voting standard, which previously applied to all director elections, remains applicable to any election in which the number of nominees for election as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected.
The Company's by-laws were also amended to clarify the permissible use of electronic notices and other electronic communications, to make certain updates to conform to changes in the Delaware General Corporation Law, and to make other conforming and clarifying changes.
A copy of the amended and restated by-laws is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference. The copy is marked to show changes from the prior by-laws. The description in this Item 5.03 of the amendments to the by-laws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amended and restated by-laws filed as Exhibit 3.1.
