 “Calculation Agency Agreement” shall mean the Calculation Agency Agreement dated as of June 6, 2008 between the Company and the
Calculation Agent, as amended from time to time.

 2 








 
Calculation Agent from time to time after the initial issuance of the Securities of this series without the consent of the Holders of the Securities of this
series and without notifying the Holders of the Securities of this series. 
 The “Closing Level” of the Index on any
Trading Day shall mean the closing level of the Index as reported by the Index Sponsor (or of any successor index, as reported by the index sponsor of that successor index) on such Trading Day or as determined by the Calculation Agent as described
in “—Discontinuance of the Index; Alteration Of Method Of Calculation.” 
 “Face Amount” shall mean, when
used with respect to any Security or Securities of this series, the amount set forth on the face of such Security or Securities as its or their “Face Amount.”

	 	•	 	 A material suspension or material limitation of trading in 20% or more of the underlying securities which comprise the Index or any successor index has been imposed
by the relevant exchanges on which those securities are traded, at any time during the one-hour period preceding the close of trading on such day, whether by reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by that relevant exchange or
otherwise. 


  

	 	•	 	 A material suspension or material limitation has occurred on that day, in each case during the one-hour period preceding the close of trading in options or futures
contracts related to the Index or any successor index, on the primary exchange on which those options or futures contracts are traded, whether by reason of movements in price exceeding levels permitted by the exchange or otherwise.



  

	 	•	 	 Any event, other than an early closure, that disrupts or impairs the ability of market participants in general to effect transactions in, or obtain market values
for, the securities that then comprise 20% or more of the Index or any successor index on the relevant exchanges on which those securities are traded, at any time during the one-hour period that ends at the close of trading on that day.



  

	 	•	 	 Any event, other than an early closure, that disrupts or impairs the ability of market participants in general to effect transactions in, or obtain market values
for, the futures or options contracts relating to the Index or any successor index on the primary exchange or quotation system on which those futures or options contracts are traded, at any time during the one-hour period that ends at the close of
trading on that day. 


  

	 	•	 	 The closure of the relevant exchanges on which the securities that then comprise 20% or more of the Index or any successor index are traded on or which futures or




  

 3 









	 	 
options contracts relating to the Index or any successor index are traded prior to its scheduled closing time unless the earlier closing time is announced by
the relevant exchanges at least one hour prior to the earlier of (1) the actual closing time for the regular trading session on the relevant exchanges and (2) the submission deadline for orders to be entered into the relevant exchanges for
execution at the close of trading on that day. 


 For purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event has
occurred: 
  

	 	•	 	 the relevant percentage contribution of a security to the level of the Index or any successor index will be based on a comparison of (x) the portion of the
level of the Index attributable to that security and (y) the overall level of the Index, in each case immediately before the occurrence of the Market Disruption Event; and 


  

	 	•	 	 “close of trading” means in respect of any relevant exchange, the scheduled weekday closing time on a day on which the relevant exchange is
scheduled to be open for trading for its respective regular trading session, without regard to after hours or any other trading outside the regular trading session hours. 


  

	 	•	 	 “relevant exchange” means for any security (or any combination thereof then underlying the Index or any successor index) the primary exchange,
quotation system (which includes bulletin board services) or other market of trading for such security. 


 A
“Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Index (including any successor index) is published by the Index Sponsor or is otherwise determined by the Calculation Agent as described in “—Discontinuance of the Index;
Alteration Of Method of Calculation.” 
 The “Valuation Date” shall be the last Trading Day of May 2013. If the
Calculation Agent determines that a Market Disruption Event has occurred or is continuing with respect to the Index on the scheduled Valuation Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Level of the Index by reference to the Closing
Level on the next Trading Day on which there is not a Market Disruption Event for the Index; provided, however, if a Market Disruption Event occurs with respect to the Index on each of the seven Trading Days following the originally scheduled
Valuation Date, then (i) that seventh Trading Day shall be deemed the Valuation Date and (ii) the Calculation Agent shall determine the Closing Level of the Index subject to a Market Disruption Event based upon its good faith estimate of
the Closing Level on that seventh Trading Day. Any such postponement of the date that would otherwise be the scheduled Valuation Date will cause the Stated Maturity Date to be postponed until three Business Days after the Valuation Date if such
third Business Day is after the Initial Stated Maturity Date. 
 Discontinuance Of The Index; Alteration Of Method Of Calculation 
 If the Index Sponsor discontinues publication of the Index, or if the Index Sponsor terminates the license agreement for the Index and the Company does
not otherwise have the right to use the Index after any such termination, and the Index Sponsor or another entity 

  

 4 








 
publishes a successor or substitute index that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to the discontinued or otherwise
unavailable Index, then any subsequent Closing Level of the Index will be determined by reference to the level of such successor index or substitute index (in any such case, referred to herein as a “successor index”) at 4:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date that any such subsequent Closing Level of the Index is to be determined. 
 Upon any selection by the
Calculation Agent of a successor index, the Company will promptly give notice to the Holders of the Securities of this series. 
 If the
Index Sponsor discontinues publication of the Index, or if the Index Sponsor terminates the license agreement for the Index and the Company does not otherwise have the right to use the Index after such termination, and such discontinuance or other
unavailability is continuing on the date that any Closing Level of the Index is to be determined and the Calculation Agent determines that no successor index is available at such time, then, on such date, the Calculation Agent will determine the
Closing Level to be used in computing the amount payable at stated maturity. Such Closing Level will be computed by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Index last in effect prior to such
discontinuance, using the closing price (or, if trading in the relevant securities has been materially suspended or materially limited, its good faith estimate of the closing price that would have prevailed but for such suspension or limitation) at
the close of the principal trading session on such date of each security most recently comprising the Index on the primary organized exchange or trading system. As used herein, “closing price” means, with respect to any security on
any date, the last reported sales price regular way on such date or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such date, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices regular way on such date, in either case on the primary organized
exchange or trading system on which such security is then listed or admitted to trading. 
 If a successor index is selected or the
Calculation Agent calculates a Closing Level as a substitute for the Index, such successor index or Closing Level will be used as a substitute for the Index for all purposes, including for purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event
exists. 
 If the method of calculating the Index or a successor index, or the Closing Level thereof, is changed in a material respect, or if
the Index or a successor index is in any other way modified so that such Index does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the value of the Index or such successor index had such changes or modifications not been made, then
the Calculation Agent will, at the close of business in New York City on the date that any Closing Level is to be determined, make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order
to arrive at a value of a stock index comparable to the Index or such successor index, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications had not been made. The Calculation Agent will calculate the Closing Level of the Index and the amount
payable at stated maturity with reference to the Index or such successor index, as adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the Index or a successor index is modified so that the level of such index is a fraction of what it would have
been if it had not been modified (for example, due to a split in the index), then the Calculation Agent will adjust such index in order to arrive at a level of the Index or such successor index as if it had not been modified (for example, as if such
split had not occurred). 
  

 5 








 Calculation Agent 
 The Calculation Agent will determine the Maturity Payment Amount. In addition, the Calculation Agent will (i) determine if adjustments are required to the Closing Level of the Index under the circumstances
described in this Security, (ii) if publication of the Index is discontinued or if the Company no longer has the right to use the Index after any termination by MSCI of the license agreement, select a successor index or, if no successor index
is available, determine the Closing Level of the Index under the circumstances described in this Security and (iii) determine whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred. 
 The Company covenants that, so long as any of the Securities of this series are Outstanding, there shall at all times be a Calculation Agent (which shall
be a broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution) with respect to the Securities of this series. 
 All determinations made by the
Calculation Agent with respect to the Securities of this series will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and, in the absence of manifest error, will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Company and the Holders of the
Securities of this series. All percentages and other amounts resulting from any calculation with respect to the Securities of this series will be rounded at the Calculation Agent’s discretion. 
 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have
the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred
to on the reverse hereof by manual signature or its duly authorized agent under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for
any purpose.

 [Reverse of Note] 
 WELLS FARGO & COMPANY 
 Notes Linked to the MSCI EAFE Index 
 due June 6, 2013 
 This Security
is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an indenture dated as of July 21, 1999, as amended or supplemented from time to time
(herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and Citibank, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities
are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate Face Amount to
$                    ; provided, however, that the Company may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without
the consent of the Holders of the Securities of this series, issue additional Securities with the same terms as the Securities of this series, and such additional Securities shall be considered part of the same series under the Indenture as the
Securities of this series. 
 The Securities of this series are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the
option of the Holder hereof prior to June 6, 2013. The Securities will not be entitled to any sinking fund. 
 The Company agrees, to
the extent permitted by law, not to voluntarily claim the benefits of any laws concerning usurious rates of interest against a Holder of Securities of this series. 
 If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the Maturity Payment Amount (calculated as set forth in the next sentence) of the
Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The amount payable to the Holder hereof upon any acceleration permitted under the Indenture will be equal to the Maturity Payment
Amount hereof calculated as though the date of acceleration was the Valuation Date; provided, however, if such date is not a Trading Day or if a Market Disruption Event has occurred or is continuing on that day, the next Trading Day on which there
is not a Market Disruption Event will be deemed to be the Valuation Date. Upon payment of the amount so declared due and payable, all of the Company’s obligations in respect of payment of the Maturity Payment Amount shall terminate. The
Securities of this series will not bear a default rate of interest after the occurrence of an Event of Default or an acceleration under the Indenture. 
 The Company agrees, and by acceptance of a beneficial ownership interest in this Security each beneficial owner of this Security will be deemed to have agreed, for United States federal income tax purposes to
characterize and treat this Security as a pre-paid cash-settled forward contract. 
  

 8 








 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the
modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected, acting together. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time
Outstanding affected by certain provisions of the Indenture, acting together, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with those provisions of the Indenture. Certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences may be waived under the Indenture by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series. Solely for the
purpose of determining whether any consent, waiver, notice or other action or Act to be taken or given by the Holders of Securities pursuant to the Indenture has been given or taken by the Holders of Outstanding Securities in the requisite aggregate
principal amount, the principal amount of this Security will be deemed to be equal to the amount set forth on the face hereof as the “Face Amount” hereof. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this
Security. 
 Section 403 and Article Fifteen of the Indenture and the provisions of clause (ii) of Section 401(1)(B) of the
Indenture, relating to defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness on this Security and (b) certain restrictive covenants and certain Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein,
shall not apply to this Security. The remaining provisions of Section 401 of the Indenture shall apply to this Security. 
 Upon due
presentment for registration of transfer of this Security at the office or agency of the Company in the City of Minneapolis, Minnesota, a new Security or Securities of this series in authorized denominations for an equal aggregate Face Amount will
be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor, as provided in the Indenture and subject to the limitations provided therein and to the limitations described below, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in
connection therewith. 
 This Security is exchangeable for definitive Securities in registered form only if (x) the Depositary notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this Security or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a successor depositary is
not appointed within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, (y) the Company in its sole discretion determines that this Security shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities in registered
form and notifies the Trustee thereof or (z) an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented hereby has occurred and is continuing. If this Security is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence, it shall be exchangeable for
definitive Securities in registered form, having the same terms and of authorized denominations aggregating a like amount. 
  

 9 








 This Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary
or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor of the Depositary or a nominee of such successor. Except as provided above, owners of beneficial
interests in this Security will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Securities in definitive form and will not be considered the Holders hereof for any purpose under the Indenture. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay the Maturity Payment Amount at the times and place, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed, except as otherwise provided in this Security. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the Maturity Payment Amount, or for any claim based on this Security, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture
supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of
any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released. 
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture unless otherwise defined in
this Security. 
 This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
