      Fuel Services Corporation Completes Acquisition of ExxonMobil On-Airport
      Fueling Operations in Canada and France</b></font>
    </p>
    <p style="text-align: center">

    </p>
    <p>
      MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 1, 2016--World Fuel Services
      Corporation (NYSE:INT) announced today that it has completed the
      previously announced acquisition of the aviation fueling operations of
      certain ExxonMobil affiliates (&#8220;ExxonMobil&#8221;) at 34 airports in Canada
      and 2 airports in France. World Fuel has also become ExxonMobil&#8217;s
      long-term wholesale distributor for general aviation fuel in Canada.
    </p>
    <p>
      The remaining airport locations in France, the United Kingdom, Germany,
      Italy, Australia and New Zealand are expected to close later in the
      fourth quarter of 2016 and into the first quarter of 2017 and are
      subject to customary regulatory consents and closing conditions,
      including securing appropriate third party consents.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;We are pleased to expand our global aviation network into airport
      locations in Canada and France,&#8221; said Michael J. Kasbar, chairman and
      chief executive officer of World Fuel Services Corporation. &#8220;The closing
      of these locations, combined with the existing World Fuel business, will
      provide customers with a premier global fueling network across the
      United States and Canada and in strategic locations in France.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Our strong cash flow profile enabled us to fund this acquisition with
      cash-on-hand, leaving our existing liquidity facilities available to
      fund organic growth and additional strategic investments,&#8221; said Ira M.
      Birns, executive vice president and chief financial officer.

      <u>Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements</u>
    </p>
    <p>
      This release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of
      the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including
      statements regarding our expectations about the effect of the
      acquisition on our aviation segment, our liquidity, our expectations
      about organic growth and strategic investments, and the timing for
      closing the remaining locations. These forward-looking statements are
      qualified in their entirety by cautionary statements and risk factor
      disclosures contained in the company&#8217;s Securities and Exchange
      Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;) filings, including the company&#8217;s Annual Report on
      Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 16, 2016. Actual results may
      differ materially from any forward-looking statements due to risks and
      uncertainties, including, but not limited to: our ability to effectively
      integrate and derive benefits from the acquisition, our ability to
      capitalize on new market opportunities, our ability to obtain required
      consents and satisfy closing conditions, potential liabilities, limited
      indemnities and the extent of any insurance coverage, the outcome of
      pending litigation and other proceedings, the impact of quarterly
      fluctuations in results, the creditworthiness of our customers and
      counterparties and our ability to collect accounts receivable,
      environmental and other risks associated with the storage,
      transportation and delivery of petroleum products, our failure to
      effectively hedge certain financial risks associated with the use of
      derivatives, non-performance by counterparties or customers on
      derivatives contracts, loss of, or reduced sales, to a significant
      government customer, uninsured losses, the failure of fuel and other
      products we sell to meet specifications, fluctuations in world oil
      prices or foreign currency, changes in political, economic, regulatory,
      or environmental conditions, adverse conditions in the markets or
      industries in which we or our customers and suppliers operate, the
      impact of natural disasters, adverse results in legal disputes,
      unanticipated tax liabilities, our ability to retain and attract senior
      management and other key employees and other risks detailed from time to
      time in the company&#8217;s SEC filings. New risks emerge from time to time
      and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors
      or to assess the impact of such risks on our business. Accordingly, we
      undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
      statements, whether as a result of new information, changes in
      expectations, future events, or otherwise.
