| Re: | Visa Restructuring Update: Member Solicitation |
| Dear [INSERT NAME]: | CONTROL NUMBER: _______ |
In June 2007, Visa Inc. initially filed a proxy statement-prospectus with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). We are pleased to inform you that the SEC has now cleared comments on Visa Inc.’s proxy statement-prospectus. This is a critical step in our effort to restructure the organization as it allows us to begin obtaining member approval for a series of transactions through which Visa International, Visa USA, Visa Canada and Inovant will become subsidiaries of Visa Inc., a single, global company.
Today, we are sending you this solicitation packet that includes a proxy card and two copies of the proxy statement-prospectus. As a Visa International member entitled to consent, we encourage you to read the enclosed proxy statement-prospectus carefully as it contains important information about the proposed restructuring.
Visa is pursuing an aggressive timeline for obtaining member approval and plans to complete the restructuring as soon as the necessary approvals and regulatory conditions are met. After you have considered the restructuring and equity incentive plan proposals, please submit your proxy to consent by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on September 25, 2007. Detailed information on how to submit your proxy is provided on the reverse of this letter.
Our boards of directors believe that as a single, global company, Visa Inc. will be positioned to serve you better and compete more effectively across our regions.
As always, if you have any questions, please contact your Visa account representative.
| Sincerely, |
 |
| Joseph W. Saunders |
| Chairman and Chief Executive Officer |
| Visa Inc. |
SUBMIT YOUR PROXY
Please make sure you submit your response as soon as possible; your proxy needs to be received no later than 11:59 PM Eastern Daylight Time on September 25, 2007.
