QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

What Is the Date, Time and Place of the Annual Meeting?

World Fuel’s 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders will be held on Tuesday, June 3, 2008, beginning at 8:00 a.m., local time, at the Company’s offices located at 9800 Northwest 41^st Street, Miami, Florida 33178.

What Is the Purpose of the Annual Meeting?

At the annual meeting, World Fuel shareholders will be asked to:

1

Table of Contents

Who Is Entitled to Vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only holders of record of World Fuel common stock at the close of business on April 16, 2008, the record date for the meeting, are entitled to notice of, to attend and to vote at the annual meeting, or any postponements or adjournments of the meeting. At the close of business on the record date, 28,633,438 shares of World Fuel common stock were issued and outstanding and were held by approximately 259 holders of record.

What Are the Voting Rights of World Fuel Shareholders?

World Fuel shareholders have one vote per share of World Fuel common stock owned on the record date for each matter properly presented at the annual meeting. For example, if you owned 100 shares of World Fuel common stock on the close of business on April 16, 2008, you can cast 100 votes for each matter properly presented at the annual meeting.

What Constitutes a Quorum?

A quorum will be present at the meeting if holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of World Fuel common stock on the record date are represented at the meeting in person or by proxy. If a quorum is not present at the meeting, World Fuel expects to postpone or adjourn the meeting to solicit additional proxies. Abstentions and broker non-votes (as described below) will be counted as shares present and entitled to vote for the purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum.

What Are “Broker Non-Votes” and How Are They Treated?

A “broker non-vote” occurs when a bank, broker or other holder of record holding shares for a beneficial owner withholds its vote on a particular proposal because that holder does not have discretionary voting power for such proposal and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. If your shares are held in “street name” by a broker, your broker is the shareholder of record. However, the broker is required to vote the shares in accordance with your instructions. If you do not give instructions to your broker, the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, allow brokers the discretionary authority to vote your shares with respect to “routine” matters but not “non-routine” matters.

“Proposal No. 1—Election of Directors” and “Proposal No. 2—Ratification of Independent Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm” are each routine matters that brokers have the discretionary authority to vote on without the beneficial holder’s instructions while “Proposal No. 3—Approval and Adoption of the World Fuel Services Corporation 2003 Executive Incentive Plan, as amended and restated as of January 1, 2008” is a non-routine matter. Therefore, if brokers do not receive instructions from beneficial owners to vote their shares regarding Proposal No. 3, the brokers cannot vote such shares for Proposal No. 3 and, accordingly, any such shares will be “broker non-votes” and will not have any effect on the outcome of the vote. In addition, if other matters are properly brought before the meeting and they are not considered routine under the applicable NYSE rules, shares held by a bank, broker or other holder of record holding shares for a beneficial owner will not be voted on such non-routine matters by that holder unless that holder has received voting instructions. As stated above, broker non-votes are counted as present for the purposes of determining the existence of a quorum.

How Are Abstentions Treated?

Abstentions will not be counted as votes cast in the final tally of votes with regard to any proposal. Therefore, abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of any proposal. As stated above, abstentions will be counted for the purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.

Will My Shares Be Voted if I Do Not Provide My Proxy?

If your shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, they may be voted by the brokerage firm (to the extent described above) even if you do not give the brokerage firm specific voting instructions. If you are a registered shareholder and hold your shares directly in your own name, your shares will not be voted unless you provide a proxy or fill out a written ballot in person at the meeting.

If you hold in “street name,” follow the instructions of your bank or broker or vote in person as described below.

What Vote Is Required for the Proposals?

Assuming that a quorum is present at the annual meeting, director nominees receiving the greatest number of affirmative votes from holders of World Fuel common stock will be elected as directors of World Fuel.

Assuming that a quorum is present, ratification of the appointment of our independent registered certified public accounting firm requires a majority of the votes cast on the proposal at the annual meeting.

Assuming that a quorum is present, approval of the World Fuel Services Corporation 2003 Executive Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective as of January 1, 2008, will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal at the annual meeting.

How Will My Proxy Holders Vote?

The enclosed proxy designates Paul H. Stebbins, our Chief Executive Officer, and Michael J. Kasbar, our President and Chief Operating Officer, each with full power of substitution, to hold your proxy and vote your shares. Messrs. Stebbins and Kasbar will vote all shares of World Fuel common stock represented by properly executed proxies received in time for the annual meeting in the manner specified by the holders of those shares. Messrs. Stebbins and Kasbar intend to vote all shares of World Fuel common stock represented by proxies that are properly executed by the record holder but otherwise do not contain voting instructions as follows:

Can I Change My Vote After I Have Voted?

Voting by mailing a proxy card does not preclude a shareholder from voting in person at the meeting. A shareholder may revoke a mailed proxy at any time prior to its exercise by filing with World Fuel’s Corporate Secretary a duly executed revocation of proxy, by properly submitting by mail a proxy to World Fuel’s Corporate Secretary bearing a later date or by appearing at the meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the meeting will not itself constitute revocation of a proxy.

Who Pays for the Preparation of the Proxy Statement?

World Fuel will bear the cost of the solicitation of proxies from its shareholders, including preparing, printing and mailing this Proxy Statement. In addition to solicitations by mail, World Fuel’s directors, officers and employees, and those of its subsidiaries and affiliates, may solicit proxies from shareholders by telephone or other electronic means or in person but will receive no additional compensation for soliciting such proxies. World Fuel will cause banks and brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of World Fuel common stock held of record by such banks, brokerage firms, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries. World Fuel may reimburse such banks, brokerage firms, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in doing so. We may also retain the services of a solicitor to assist in soliciting proxies and pay them a fee as well as other costs and expenses.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE

ELECTION OF THE ABOVE DIRECTOR NOMINEES

Table of Contents

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) has four committees: the Governance Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Technology and Operations Committee. During 2007, the Board met eight times. Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board and the total number of meetings held by all of the Board committees on which he served.

Corporate Governance Matters

The Board has established and adopted Corporate Governance Principles which govern the appointment, retention, responsibilities, qualifications and conduct of the Board and its committees. The Corporate Governance Principles require that a majority of our directors meet the standards for independence required by the listing standards of the NYSE.

In addition, members of our Audit Committee must meet the independence standards for Audit Committee members adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including that a member must not receive any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from us, other than in his or her capacity as a member of our Audit Committee, our Board or any other Board committee and a member must not be an affiliate of ours or any subsidiary of ours apart from his or her capacity as a member of the Board or any Board committee. Ownership of 10% or less of our voting securities is deemed not to affect independence. Members of the Audit Committee must also have no relationship with us that interferes with their exercise of independent judgment. Members of our Compensation Committee must meet the independence standards of Rule 16b-3 of the SEC and Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Pursuant to the provisions of Rule 16b-3 and Section 162(m), members of the Compensation Committee must not (i) be an officer or employee of the Company or any subsidiary, nor a former officer or a former employee who receives compensation for prior services other than under a qualified retirement plan, (ii) receive compensation from us or any subsidiary for services rendered as a consultant or in any capacity other than as a director or (iii) possess an interest in any transaction with us in an amount in excess of $120,000.

The discussion above is not exhaustive, and the Board could consider other factors in making its determination that a director has no material relationship with us that could compromise that director’s independence.

Our Corporate Governance Principles provide that no more than two members of management shall serve on the Board. Our Board affirmatively determined that all six existing non-management directors, Messrs. Bakshi, Heel, Kassar, Klein, Presby and Roddenberry are independent of us and our management under NYSE standards, and our Audit Committee members and Compensation Committee members are independent under the standards applicable to membership in such committees. In making this determination, our Board considered the fact that Mr. Kassar is the first cousin of Mr. Kasbar and determined that such relationship was not material because it would not adversely affect Mr. Kassar’s ability to exercise his independent judgment as our director. Messrs. Stebbins and Kasbar are considered inside directors because of their employment as our senior executives. As a result of this analysis, Messrs. Stebbins and Kasbar are precluded from sitting on our Audit, Compensation and Governance Committees.

Our six non-management directors comprise our Governance Committee, and meet in executive session (without management present) prior to each scheduled Board meeting, and at other times as they may deem necessary. In accordance with the Governance Committee charter, the Chairman of the Governance Committee, which since May 2007 has been Mr. Roddenberry, presides over the meetings of our non-management directors as the “presiding director” for NYSE purposes.

All of our employees, officers (including our principal executive, financial and accounting officers) and directors are held accountable for adherence to our Code of Corporate Conduct and Ethics, or Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct is intended to provide guidance to all our employees, officers and directors as to conduct

8

Table of Contents

over a wide range of business practices and procedures. Failure to comply with the Code of Conduct may result in disciplinary actions, up to and including dismissal. The Code of Conduct covers all areas of professional conduct, including compliance with laws (including antitrust, embargoes and trade sanctions, antiboycott, money laundering and the environment), work environment, conflicts of interest, protecting corporate assets, taking corporate opportunities, company records, insider trading, political activities and contributions, external communications, financial reporting and disclosure, accounting controls as well as specific matters that relate to conducting business on behalf of the Company such as bribes and kickbacks, gifts and entertainment and dealing with government officials. We intend to disclose any substantive amendments to our Code of Conduct and any waivers with respect to our Code of Conduct granted to our principal executive, financial and accounting officers, on our website at http://www.wfscorp.com within four business days of the amendment or waiver. Our website and information contained on our website are not part of this Proxy Statement and are not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement.

We encourage employees and others to report violations of the Code of Conduct and any other unlawful or inappropriate practices they discover relating to our business. The Code of Conduct sets forth procedures for employees to file confidential and anonymous reports of any such violations or practices. In addition, the Audit Committee has established procedures to receive, retain and treat complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters and to allow for the confidential and anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. The procedure for employees to contact our Vice President of Internal Audit, the Audit Committee, any other committee, the Board or any Board member regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters is set forth in the Code of Conduct. We have advised employees of our policy not to retaliate or take any other detrimental action against employees who submit such complaints in good faith.

It is our policy that each director should attend all meetings of shareholders, absent extenuating circumstances. All of our directors attended the 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Our Corporate Governance Principles, the Code of Conduct, and the charters of each of the Board committees are available on our website at http://www.wfscorp.com by clicking on Investor Relations and then Corporate Governance. Copies of these documents may also be obtained by any shareholder, without charge, by writing to our Corporate Secretary at our address shown below.

Any interested party can contact our Board, any Board committee, our presiding director, the non-management directors as a group or any individual director by (i) writing to any of them, c/o Corporate Secretary, at our principal office at 9800 Northwest 41^st Street, Suite 400, Miami, Florida 33178, (ii) contacting the Company’s compliance hotline at 877-787-8742 (Toll Free Domestic) or 770-776-5690 (Collect) or (iii) accessing http://www.reportlineweb.com/wfs on the Internet. Such communications may be submitted on an anonymous or confidential basis. Any communications received from interested parties in the manner described above will be collected and organized by our Corporate Secretary and will be periodically, but in any event prior to each regularly-scheduled Board meeting, reported and/or delivered to the appropriate director or directors.

Our Corporate Governance Principles provide that directors may serve on the Board until the annual meeting next following their 73^rd birthday unless the Board determines to waive the retirement age. Our Corporate Governance Principles also prohibit our independent directors from serving on the board of directors of more than three other publicly-traded companies, unless the Board determines that such service will not impair the ability of such director to effectively perform his obligations as our director (including as Chairman of our Audit Committee). The Board has determined that Mr. Presby’s service on the board of directors of five other public companies (including more than three public company audit committees) will not impair his ability to effectively perform his obligations as our director because: (i) he is fully retired and has ample time to devote to his director and committee responsibilities; (ii) service on multiple audit committees results in specialization and increased knowledge of regulations and audit committee issues, and should thereby improve quality and efficiency; and (iii) two of the companies for which he serves have different fiscal year ends from our fiscal year end.

Committees of the Board

The following table illustrates the current membership of each of our committees, which are composed entirely of independent directors:

The Governance Committee and Nominating Subcommittee

The Governance Committee consists of our six independent directors: Messrs. Bakshi, Heel, Kassar, Klein, Presby and Roddenberry. The Board has determined that each member of the Governance Committee is independent pursuant to the NYSE listing standards. The Governance Committee operates pursuant to a written charter which was last amended on February 25, 2008 and is attached hereto as Appendix A. The Governance Committee charter can also be found on our website at http://www.wfscorp.com by clicking on Investor Relations and then Corporate Governance. Mr. Roddenberry was elected as Chairman of the Governance Committee upon John R. Benbow’s retirement from the Board in May 2007. The Governance Committee meets in executive session (without management present) prior to each scheduled Board meeting and at other times as it deems necessary. Each meeting of the Governance Committee is presided over by its Chairman. The Governance Committee held five meetings during 2007.

The primary functions of the Governance Committee are to recommend to the Board the corporate governance principles and polices applicable to us; to lead the Board in its annual performance evaluation of the Board and individual members; to identify individuals qualified to become members of the Board; to recommend to the Board the director nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders; to recommend to the Board the members to serve on the Board’s committees; to review and approve related person transactions; and to annually evaluate the performance of the named executive officers and discuss any changes to the named executive officers’ compensation. In 2008, members of each of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Governance Committee and the Technology and Operations Committee conducted evaluations of their respective committee’s performance during 2007, in accordance with the requirements of their committee charters.

The Governance Committee has adopted a policy with respect to the nomination and evaluation of director candidates. Pursuant to this policy, the Governance Committee will consider nominees for director recommended by shareholders. If a shareholder wishes to recommend a candidate for director, the shareholder should submit a written nomination to the Governance Committee, c/o Corporate Secretary, 9800 Northwest 41^st Street, Suite 400, Miami, FL 33178. This written nomination must be submitted by December 1, 2008, for candidates to be considered as nominees for election at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Upon receipt of a nomination, the Corporate Secretary will advise the nominating shareholder of the additional information regarding the background and experience of the nominee that will be required for the Governance Committee to evaluate the candidate. In addition to considering candidates suggested by shareholders, the Governance Committee considers potential candidates recommended by current directors, employees and others. The Governance Committee may also retain professional search firms to identify director candidates. The Governance Committee has the sole authority to approve the fees and other retention terms of any such firms.

In considering Board nominees, the Governance Committee reviews various skills and characteristics required of Board members in the context of the current composition of the Board. Although there are no

10

Table of Contents

specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by each nominee, the Governance Committee generally evaluates the candidate’s intellect, integrity and judgment, and his or her knowledge, skills and experience, including experience in the marine and aviation fuel industry, securities markets, business, finance and public service. The Governance Committee makes this determination in the context of an assessment of the perceived needs of the Board at the time of the evaluation.

The Nominating Subcommittee was formed by the Governance Committee on April 26, 2005 to assist the Governance Committee with identifying and recruiting qualified candidates for Board membership. The Nominating Subcommittee does not have a separate charter and consists of two of the members at large of the Governance Committee, Messrs. Bakshi, who serves as Chairman, and Presby.

The Governance Committee evaluates all nominees for director based on the above criteria, including nominees recommended by shareholders. All nominees for director included on the enclosed proxy card were nominated by our Governance Committee and our Board.

The Audit Committee

The Audit Committee consists of Messrs. Presby, who serves as Chairman, Kassar and Klein. The Audit Committee held six meetings during 2007.

The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter which was last amended on February 25, 2008 and is attached hereto as Appendix B. The Audit Committee charter is also available on our website at http://www.wfscorp.com by clicking on Investor Relations and then Corporate Governance. In accordance with the NYSE listing standards, the charter addresses the purpose, duties and responsibilities, and requires an annual performance evaluation, of the Audit Committee.

The Board has determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee meet the NYSE standards of independence, financial literacy and accounting or related financial management expertise, and the SEC’s requirements with respect to independence of audit committee members. The Board has determined that at least one member of the Audit Committee, Mr. Presby, meets the SEC’s definition of an “audit committee financial expert.”

The charter provides that a member of the Audit Committee shall not simultaneously serve on the audit committees of more than two other public companies unless the Board determines that simultaneous service would not impair the ability of the member to effectively serve on the Audit Committee. The Board has determined that Mr. Presby’s simultaneous service on the audit committees of five other public companies will not impair his ability to effectively serve on the Audit Committee or as Chairman of the Audit Committee because (i) he is fully retired and has ample time to devote to his director and committee responsibilities; (ii) service on multiple audit committees results in specialization and increased knowledge of regulations and audit committee issues, and should thereby improve quality and efficiency; and (iii) two of the companies for which he serves have different fiscal year ends from that of the Company.

Our management is responsible for preparing our consolidated financial statements and for the financial reporting process. The independent registered certified public accounting firm is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of our consolidated financial statements to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Acting for the Board, the Audit Committee provides oversight of the financial reporting process and the internal control system. More specifically, the Audit Committee performs the following principal functions: reviews the qualifications, independence and performance of our independent registered certified public accounting firm; approves the appointment of our independent registered certified public accounting firm for the ensuing year; reviews the scope and budget for the annual audit; reviews with the independent registered certified public accounting firm the results of the audit engagement, including a review of the consolidated financial statements and the management letter; approves all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the

11

Table of Contents

independent registered certified public accounting firm; reviews the scope of, and compliance with, our internal controls; reviews the effectiveness of our internal audit function; and recommends to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. While the Audit Committee has the responsibilities set forth in the charter, it is not the Audit Committee’s duty to prepare the Company’s financial statements, or to provide any expert or special assistance as to the Company’s financial statements or any professional certifications as to the independent auditors’ work.

The Audit Committee has adopted policies for pre-approving all non-audit work to be performed by our independent registered certified public accounting firm. These policies are described in the section of this Proxy Statement titled “Proposal No. 2—Ratification of Independent Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm.”

Report of the Audit Committee

The following report of the Audit Committee does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate such report by reference.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management and with the independent registered certified public accounting firm the audited consolidated financial statements for the 2007 fiscal year. The Audit Committee has also performed the other reviews and duties set forth in its charter. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered certified public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication with Audit Committees), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T.

Additionally, the Audit Committee has: (i) received from the independent registered certified public accounting firm the written disclosures required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3600T; (ii) considered whether the provision of tax and accounting research and other non-audit services by our independent registered certified public accounting firm is compatible with maintaining their independence; and (iii) discussed with the independent registered certified public accounting firm their independence from us and our management.

In reliance on the foregoing reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements referred to above be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2007 fiscal year, for filing with the SEC.

Directors who are not employed by us are also reimbursed by us for their travel, food, lodging and related expenses incurred in connection with attending Board, committee and shareholder meetings, as well as continuing education programs.

Equity Awards

In 2007, the Board elected to grant each non-management director (i) approximately $60,000 worth of restricted stock units, or RSUs, which resulted in each non-management director receiving 1,475 RSUs, and (ii) approximately $60,000 worth of stock-settled stock appreciation rights, or SSARs, which resulted in each non-management director receiving 4,700 SSARs. The RSUs vest in twelve equal monthly installments of approximately 123 RSUs per month, but the directors will not receive the shares corresponding to such RSUs until they cease to be a director. The SSARs vest on the first anniversary of the grant date or on the date of the next annual meeting that follows the grant date, whichever is earlier.

The table below summarizes the compensation paid by us to our non-management directors for services rendered in 2007. Directors who are employed by us do not receive additional compensation for serving as directors.

COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis contains statements regarding future individual and company performance milestones and goals. These milestones and goals are disclosed in the limited context of our executive compensation program and should not be understood to be statements of management’s expectations or estimates of results or other guidance. We specifically caution investors not to apply these statements to other contexts.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This section discusses and analyzes our executive compensation policies and principles for 2007 covering the executive officers included in the 2007 Summary Compensation Table below, who we refer to as our named executive officers, and describes the compensation provided to these named executive officers in 2007. For 2007, our named executive officers were Paul H. Stebbins, Michael J. Kasbar, Ira M. Birns (who joined the Company in April 2007), Michael S. Clementi and Francis X. Shea.

Executive Compensation Philosophy

The Compensation Committee has designed our executive compensation programs based on the following principles:

Role of Compensation Committee and Management in Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee of our Board establishes and oversees our executive compensation programs. The Compensation Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors and is advised by independent compensation consultants retained by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee reviews executive compensation to ensure that it reflects our executive compensation philosophy. The Compensation Committee establishes and approves all elements of compensation for our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Operating Officer after careful consideration of all appropriate factors. The Compensation Committee also reviews and approves the compensation of other executive officers (including the other named executive officers)

20

Table of Contents

based upon recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Operating Officer. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Operating Officer make recommendations on compensation actions for the other executive officers according to the same philosophy and objectives the Compensation Committee has adopted.

Independent Compensation Consultants

In 2007, the Compensation Committee utilized two independent compensation consultants: Independent Compensation Committee Adviser, LLC (“ICCA”) and Mr. John R. Benbow. ICCA has been providing consulting services to the Compensation Committee since January 2004 and was engaged directly by the Compensation Committee to provide ongoing advice with respect to our compensation programs for our named executive officers. ICCA assists the Compensation Committee in identifying key issues, reviews and comments upon all plans, agreements or other documents the Compensation Committee is asked to adopt or approve, reviews reports, explains relevant information, provides feedback to the Compensation Committee and attends meetings of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Benbow served as Chairman of the Compensation Committee until his retirement from the Board in May 2007 and was thereafter engaged directly by the Compensation Committee to assist the Compensation Committee in the fulfillment of its duties and responsibilities and to provide ongoing advice with respect to our compensation programs for our named executive officers. ICCA and Mr. Benbow reported directly and exclusively to the Compensation Committee and did not provide services to management. In addition, James F. Reda and Associates, LLC (“JFRA”) was engaged in July 2007 by our Chief Executive Officer to assist with designing a new compensation program for Mr. Clementi. JFRA reported directly to our Chief Executive Officer and the Compensation Committee. ICCA, JFRA and, following his retirement from the Board and engagement as a compensation consultant, Mr. Benbow have not performed other services for the Company unrelated to executive compensation.

Components of Executive Compensation Program

In 2007, our executive compensation program for our named executive officers consisted of the following five elements:

The Compensation Committee determines the amounts that can be earned for each of the five elements of our executive compensation program in accordance with our pay-for-performance philosophy. The amounts for the five elements are also determined based on our budget and the relationship between the total direct compensation payable to our named executive officers and the Company’s net after-tax income. We do not have a formal policy for a specific allocation among the different elements. However, the Compensation Committee reviews the pay mix for executive officers to ensure that it provides an appropriate balance of annual and long-term incentives and rewards and promotes executive retention and shareholder alignment. Base salary was the only fixed portion of the named executive officers’ compensation (aside from standard benefits and minimal perquisites) and represented the smallest portion of their total compensation, with the exception of Mr. Birns, while the rest of their compensation (consisting of annual cash incentive awards and equity-based awards) was at risk and depended upon the Company’s performance. The 2007 annual cash incentive awards were performance based, and the base salaries of the executives, with the exception of Mr. Birns, ranged from 30% to 40% of the maximum cash compensation that each executive could earn if the maximum performance targets were achieved.

21

Table of Contents

As a result, the Compensation Committee believes that the 2007 annual cash incentive award opportunities provided significant incentives and appropriate potential rewards for achieving substantial year-over-year earnings growth. Long-term incentive compensation opportunities take the form of performance-based grants of non-cash, equity awards. These equity awards serve to align the interests of executive officers with our shareholders and to help increase the likelihood that top performers will remain with us long-term. Consistent with our pay-for-performance philosophy, we do not provide any pension or other retirement plans, and we provide minimal benefits and few perquisites.

The following sections describe each of the five individual elements of our executive compensation program for 2007.

Base Salary

Base salary is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee believes that providing a base salary is necessary to attract, retain and motivate executives but should not be the primary means of recognizing their performance. The Compensation Committee considers the individual’s skills, responsibilities and experience when determining the base salary for each named executive officer. There were no base salary increases in 2007 for our named executive officers.

Annual Cash Incentive Awards

Our named executive officers are eligible for annual cash incentive awards under our 2003 Executive Incentive Plan, or EIP, which is administered by our Compensation Committee. The annual cash incentive awards provide compensation opportunities tied to the achievement of pre-established and objective performance criteria on an annual basis.

The Compensation Committee set performance goals for the 2007 annual cash incentive awards based on the achievement in 2007 of specified levels of growth in our net after-tax income as compared with our 2006 net after-tax income. The Compensation Committee used this performance measure because it believes that growth in our earnings is fundamental to creating shareholder value. The Compensation Committee approved the same target levels for the performance goals in 2007 that were approved in 2006 despite the fact that the 2006 maximum target levels were achieved because the Compensation Committee believed that the target levels remained challenging for the named executive officers to attain.

22

Table of Contents

For 2007, the award percentages that could have been earned by the named executive officers based upon the threshold, target and maximum milestones for the percentage growth in our net after-tax income were as follows:

Award as a Percentage of Base Salary

The threshold milestone in 2007 was not met since our net after-tax income for 2007 was 1.3% higher than our 2006 net after-tax income. Consequently, none of our named executive officers earned an annual cash incentive award for 2007. Mr. Birns received a guaranteed minimum bonus of $100,000 in connection with his recruitment, which is reflected in the third column of the Summary Compensation Table at page 29. Additional information regarding the 2007 annual cash incentive awards can be found in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 32 and the related footnotes.

Equity-Based Awards

Our named executive officers and others are eligible to receive periodic grants of equity-based awards pursuant to our 2006 Omnibus Plan, which is administered by our Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee believes that equity-based awards are appropriate long-term incentive compensation vehicles for our executives because it believes that our stock price is a good indicator of our success in creating shareholder value over the long-term. The Compensation Committee also believes that equity-based awards with multi-year vesting periods promote retention of our executives and provide further long-term incentives for creating shareholder value.

In 2007, we did not award our named executive officers equity-based awards, with the exception of Mr. Birns whose awards are discussed below, because we awarded them multi-year equity-based awards in 2006 consisting of performance-related SSARs and performance-related restricted stock.

The performance-related restricted stock grants made to the named executive officers in 2006 provided that a maximum of 20% of the awarded performance-related restricted stock could be earned during each of the five calendar years during the performance period from January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2010, based upon the

23

Table of Contents

achievement of specified targets in growth in our net after-tax income for that year. Shares which are not earned in a particular year are forfeited. The Compensation Committee set the performance metrics for the performance-related restricted stock based on growth in net after-tax earnings because it believes that achieving sustained earnings growth is fundamental to creating shareholder value. The shares of performance-related restricted stock granted in 2006 that are earned each year will not vest unless the executive continues to be employed by us through the date in 2011 on which our 2011 financial statements are certified by our external auditor. This five year cliff vesting schedule provides an incentive for the executive to remain employed by us throughout the vesting period.

Mr. Birns joined the Company in April 2007 and received two hire grants of equity-based awards consisting of (i) 6,000 shares of restricted stock which will vest in equal portions over a three-year period and (ii) 7,500 SSARs which have three-year cliff vesting. These hire grants were provided to replace unvested awards granted to Mr. Birns by his previous employer. Mr. Birns also received a multi-year performance-related award of 10,000 shares of restricted stock, which is subject to the same terms and performance metrics described above for the 2006 multi-year performance-related restricted stock awards to our other named executive officers, with the exception that the performance period for Mr. Birns’ grant is each of the five calendar years from January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2011.

For 2007, the portion of the multi-year performance-related restricted stock grants made in 2006 that could have been earned by the named executive officers based upon the threshold, target and maximum milestones for the percentage growth in our net after-tax income were as follows:

2007 Portion of Multi-Year Performance-Related Restricted Stock Grants

Because the specified growth levels in net after-tax income were not achieved in 2007, the portion of the performance-related restricted stock grants allocated to 2007 was not earned and was therefore forfeited. Additional information regarding the 2006 performance-related restricted stock awards can be found in the Grants of Plan—Based Awards Table in our 2007 Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on April 30, 2007. Additional information regarding Mr. Birns’ grants can be found in the Grants of Plan—Based Awards Table on page 32 and the related footnotes.

The performance-related SSARs granted in 2006 to our named executive officers, with the exception of Mr. Birns (who did not receive a performance-related SSAR grant when he joined the Company in 2007), are subject to satisfaction of performance goals over a three-year performance period from January 1, 2006 through

24

Table of Contents

December 31, 2008. The Compensation Committee decided to award SSARs, rather than stock options, because (1) the recipient of a SSAR is not required to pay an exercise price (thereby avoiding the need for a cashless exercise program through a third party brokerage firm or otherwise), and (2) a SSAR results in our issuance of fewer shares to the recipient than an option.

The performance goal used to determine vesting of the performance-related SSARs is the compound average annual growth rate, or CAGR, in EPS over the three-year performance period. The Compensation Committee selected this goal (instead of using CAGR in net after-tax income for this purpose) in order to provide management with appropriate incentives to balance the objectives of maximizing earnings and minimizing dilution. The Compensation Committee chose a three-year performance period in order to provide the executives with an incentive for creating long-term shareholder value. SSARs will have no value if there is no growth in our common stock above the base price of the SSAR. Thus, SSARs provide an incentive to maintain a high CAGR in EPS over time which, in turn, should result in increases in the market price of our stock.

The performance-related SSARs granted in 2006 that are earned will not vest unless the executive continues to be employed by us through the date in 2009 when our 2008 financial statements are certified by our external auditor. This three-year vesting schedule provides an incentive for the executive to remain employed by us throughout the vesting period. The performance-related SSARs will expire unless they are exercised within five years after they are granted (two years after the three-year performance period). Additional information regarding these grants and the 2006 performance-related restricted stock grants can be found in the Grants of Plan—Based Awards Table in our 2007 Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on April 30, 2007.

Benefits and Perquisites

In keeping with our pay-for-performance philosophy, the Compensation Committee provides only limited standard benefits and perquisites to our executives as described below in order for us to be successful in attracting and retaining executives. The total amount of benefits and perquisites provided to the named executive officers during 2007 was only a small percentage of each named executive officer’s total compensation. These amounts are included in the second to last column of the Summary Compensation Table at page 29 under “All Other Compensation” and related footnotes and more precisely described in the All Other Compensation Table on page 31.

Retirement and Deferred Compensation

We maintain the World Fuel Services Corporation 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, or our 401(k) Plan, to enable eligible employees to save for retirement through a tax-advantaged combination of elective employee contributions and our matching contributions and provide employees the opportunity to directly manage their retirement plan assets through a variety of investment options. The 401(k) Plan allows eligible employees to elect to contribute a percentage of their eligible compensation to an investment trust on a pre-tax basis, up to the maximum dollar amounts permitted by law. In 2007, the maximum employee elective contribution to the 401(k) Plan was $15,500, plus an additional $5,000 for employees who were at least 50 years old in 2007. Eligible compensation generally means all wages, salaries and fees for services from us. Matching contributions under the 401(k) Plan are discretionary. For 2007, we matched 25% of the first 4% of eligible compensation that each eligible participant elected to contribute to the 401(k) Plan on his or her behalf. The portion of an employee’s account under the 401(k) Plan that is attributable to matching contributions vests immediately. The amounts of our matching contributions under the 401(k) Plan for 2007 for each of the named executive officers is included in the All Other Compensation Table on page 31.

We do not maintain any non-qualified deferred compensation plan or supplemental executive retirement plan for our named executive officers. However, the employment agreements in effect for Messrs. Stebbins and Kasbar during 2007 provided that any bonuses payable to either of them that would not be deductible under Section 162(m) for the year earned would be deferred until a fiscal year in which it would be deductible. Payment of the deferred bonus was to be made in all events in the year in which the executive’s employment

25

Table of Contents

terminates or the employment agreement expired. Any amount deferred in this manner was to be credited with interest at the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal. These deferred amounts for Messrs. Stebbins and Kasbar are included in footnote 4 to the Summary Compensation Table at page 29.

Other Benefits and Perquisites

Our named executive officers are eligible for the same health and welfare benefits as are available to all of our eligible employees during active employment. These benefits include medical, dental, vision, short-term and long-term disability and up to $50,000 of term life insurance coverage. We pay the entire cost of coverage for medical, short-term disability and term life insurance for the named executive officers and their covered dependents.

Messrs. Stebbins, Kasbar, Birns and Clementi are also provided with a country club membership to be used for business entertainment purposes and to facilitate business meetings.

Agreements with Executives

Our Compensation Committee believes that it is important to protect our intellectual capital. Accordingly, we maintain agreements with certain of our named executive officers that provide consideration for, and thus ensure the effectiveness of, important non-compete and other restrictive covenants and consulting obligations applicable under such agreements following the executives’ termination of employment. The Compensation Committee believes that these agreements serve to encourage the continued attention and dedication of the executives to their assigned duties and mitigate the uncertainty and questions a potential change of control may raise among executives. The Committee also deems these agreements to be appropriate and necessary to attract and retain these executives.

Our Compensation Committee generally views the potential payments and benefits payable under a termination or change of control scenario as a separate compensation element because such payments and benefits are not expected to be paid in a particular year and serve a different purpose for the executive than other elements of compensation. Accordingly, those payments and benefits do not significantly affect decisions regarding other elements of compensation.

See “Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change of Control” beginning on page 37 for a discussion of these agreements and certain compensation and benefits that will be provided in the event of the termination of the employment of our executive officers.

Equity Grant Practices

On March 6, 2008, the Compensation Committee adopted an equity grant policy which provides for equity grants to be effective on only one of four quarterly dates per year—March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15. Equity grants made to executive officers in connection with the Company’s annual performance review process are effective on March 15 of each year. Equity grants made to executive officers upon hiring or for purposes of promotion, retention or special recognition will be effective on the quarterly date that follows the date of hire or the date on which the promotion or special recognition award is made.

Under the terms of the 2006 Omnibus Plan, we are not permitted to cancel outstanding stock options or SSARs for the purpose of repricing or otherwise replacing or re-granting such options or SSARs with an exercise or conversion price that is less than the exercise or conversion price of the original stock option or SSAR without shareholder consent. We do not have a program, plan or practice of timing equity award grants in order to benefit our executive officers or in coordination with the release of material non-public information. All grants of equity awards to executive officers are approved by the Compensation Committee at a meeting of the Compensation Committee and not by written consent.

26

Table of Contents

On February 25, 2008, the Compensation Committee approved an amendment to the 2006 Omnibus Plan to provide that the exercise price for each stock option and the conversion price for each SSAR will not be less than the closing price of a share of our common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant; provided that if the grant date is not a trading day, the exercise or conversion price will not be less than the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the most recent trading day prior to the grant date. Prior to this amendment, the exercise price for each stock option and the conversion price for each SSAR was set at or above the closing price of a share of our common stock on the NYSE on the most recent trading day prior to the date of grant.

Tax and Accounting Implications

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, precludes public companies from taking a federal income tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1 million paid to any of our named executive officers unless certain specific and detailed criteria are met. One of these requirements is that the compensation be “performance based” under a plan approved by our shareholders.

Annual cash incentive awards under our EIP and equity-based awards under our 2006 Omnibus Plan may be granted in a manner so that they will qualify for the “performance-based” exception to Section 162(m). We expect that the equity-based awards and, if the amendments to the EIP discussed in “Proposal No. 3—Approval and Adoption of the World Fuel Services Corporation 2003 Executive Incentive Plan, as amended and restated as of January 1, 2008” are approved and adopted by our shareholders, the annual cash incentive awards made under those plans will qualify for that exception.

We believe, however, that preserving flexibility in awarding compensation is in our best interest and that of our shareholders. We therefore may determine, in light of applicable circumstances, to award certain compensation in the future in a manner that will not preserve the deductibility of such compensation under Section 162(m).

Accounting for Share-Based Compensation

Before granting equity-based compensation awards, the Compensation Committee considers the accounting impact of the award as structured and under various other scenarios in order to analyze the expected impact of the award.

Stock Retention Guidelines and Requirements

Our executive officers are required to retain 50% of any shares acquired (net of any shares that would need to be sold to satisfy any applicable income and employment taxes relating to the award) pursuant to any equity award granted since 2005 for five years after the shares are issued (or until termination of employment, if earlier). All of our executive officers are in compliance with this retention requirement.

Compensation Committee Report on 2007 Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing and administering the executive compensation programs of the Company. The Compensation Committee of the Company has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K with management and, based on such review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A.
