WELLS FARGO FINANCE
LLC, a limited liability company duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (hereinafter called the “Company,”
which term includes any successor corporation under and as defined in the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received,
hereby promises to pay to CEDE & Co., or registered assigns, an amount equal to the Maturity Payment Amount (as defined
below) on the Stated Maturity Date (as defined below), unless this Security is redeemed prior to the Stated Maturity Date as provided
below under “Optional Redemption,” and to pay Contingent Coupon Payments (as defined below) on the Face Amount of this
Security to the extent provided herein on the Contingent Coupon Payment Dates specified herein at the Applicable Contingent Coupon
Rate (as defined below) until the earlier of the Stated Maturity Date and the Optional Redemption Date (as defined below), if any.
The “Initial Stated Maturity Date” shall be March 6, 2029. If the Final Calculation Day (as defined below) is
not postponed, the Initial Stated Maturity Date will be the “Stated Maturity Date.” If the Final Calculation
Day is postponed, the “Stated Maturity Date” shall be the later of (i) the Initial Stated Maturity Date
and (ii) three Business Days (as defined below) after the last Final Calculation Day as postponed.


 


“Face Amount”
shall mean, when used with respect to this Security, the amount set forth on the face of this Security as its “Face Amount.”


 


Optional Redemption


 


The Company may, at
its option, redeem this Security, in whole but not in part, on any Optional Redemption Date (as defined below) by giving notice
to the Holder hereof on or before the Calculation Day (as defined below) immediately preceding that Optional Redemption Date. If
this


 






     


     


    

 


Security
is redeemed, the Holder hereof will receive the Optional Redemption Price (as defined below) plus a final Contingent Coupon Payment
(as defined below), if any, on the applicable Optional Redemption Date. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Optional
Redemption Price plus the final Contingent Coupon Payment, if any, this Security will cease to be outstanding on such Optional
Redemption Date, no additional Contingent Coupon Payments will be payable on this Security and the Holder hereof will have no
further rights under this Security after such Optional Redemption Date. The “Optional Redemption Price” is
equal to the Face Amount of this Security. The “Optional Redemption Dates” shall be the Contingent Coupon Payment
Dates (as defined below) following each Calculation Day scheduled to occur from September 2019 to December 2028, inclusive.


 


Payment of Contingent Coupon Payments,
the Maturity Payment Amount and the Optional Redemption Price


 


On each quarterly Contingent
Coupon Payment Date, the Company shall pay a Contingent Coupon Payment if, and only if, the Closing Level (as defined below) of
the Lowest Performing Index (as defined below) on the related Calculation Day is greater than or equal to its Coupon Threshold
Level (as defined below). A “Contingent Coupon Payment,” if payable as provided herein, shall be equal to (i) the
product of the Face Amount of this Security and the Applicable Contingent Coupon Rate, (ii) divided by 4. The “Contingent
Coupon Payment Dates” shall be the third Business Day following each Calculation Day, as each such Calculation Day may
be postponed as herein provided, provided that the Contingent Coupon Payment Date with respect to the Final Calculation Day will
be the Stated Maturity Date. If a Calculation Day is postponed with respect to one or more Indices, the related Contingent Coupon
Payment Date will be three Business Days after the last Calculation Day as postponed. Any Contingent Coupon Payments will be rounded
to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward. If a Contingent Coupon Payment Date is postponed, the Contingent Coupon
Payment, if any, due on that Contingent Coupon Payment Date will be made on that Contingent Coupon Payment Date as so postponed
with the same force and effect as if it had been made on the originally scheduled Contingent Coupon Payment Date, with no additional
amount accruing or payable as a result of the postponement. The “Applicable Contingent Coupon Rate” that will
apply with respect to any Calculation Day is as follows:


 





	
        For the Calculation
Days scheduled to occur from

         June 2019 to March 2024: 
	 	
         8.25% per
annum

	 	 	 
	
        For the Calculation
Days scheduled to occur from

         June 2024 to March 2029:

per annum



  


Any Contingent Coupon
Payment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Contingent Coupon Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture,

Date for a Contingent Coupon Payment Date shall be the date one Business Day prior to such Contingent Coupon Payment Date.


 


Any Contingent Coupon
Payment not punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and
may either be paid to the Person

in
whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date
for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities
of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner
not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon
such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.


 


Payment of any Contingent
Coupon Payment on this Security will be made in immediately available funds at the office or agency of the Company maintained for
that purpose in the City of Minneapolis, Minnesota; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, payment of any Contingent

Coupon Payment and the Maturity Payment Amount or the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable, on this Security at Maturity will
be made against presentation of this Security at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the City of
Minneapolis, Minnesota and at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

be made to the Depositary by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

Payment Amount or the Optional Redemption Price, as applicable, and any Contingent Coupon Payments on this Security will be made
in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts.

Level” with respect to the S&P 500 Index is 2796.11, its Closing Level on the Pricing Date, with respect to the Russell
2000 Index is 1588.805, its Closing Level on the Pricing Date, and with respect to the EURO STOXX 50 Index is 3280.01, its Closing

to be the Calculation Day for such Index. If a Calculation Day has been postponed eight Trading Days for an Index after the originally
scheduled Calculation Day and a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing with respect to such Index on such eighth Trading
Day, the Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Level of such Index on such eighth Trading Day in accordance with the formula
for and method of calculating the Closing Level of such Index last in effect prior to commencement of the Market Disruption Event,
using the closing price (or, with respect to any relevant security, if a Market Disruption Event has occurred with respect to
such security, its good faith estimate of the value of such security at (i) with respect to the S&P 500 Index or the Russell
2000 Index, the Scheduled Closing Time of the Relevant Stock Exchange for such security or, if earlier, the actual closing time
of the regular trading session of such Relevant Stock Exchange or (ii) with respect to the EURO STOXX 50 Index, the time at which
the official Closing Level of such Index is calculated and published by the relevant Index Sponsor) on such date of each security
included in such Index. As used herein, “closing price” means, with respect to any security on any date, the
Relevant Stock Exchange traded or quoted price of such security as of (i) with respect to the S&P 500 Index or the Russell
2000 Index, the Scheduled Closing Time of the Relevant Stock Exchange for such security or, if earlier, the actual closing time
of the regular trading session of such Relevant Stock Exchange or (ii) with respect to the EURO STOXX 50 Index, the time at which
the official Closing Level of such Index is calculated and published by the relevant Index Sponsor. Notwithstanding the postponement

The initial Calculation Agent shall be Wells Fargo Securities, LLC. Pursuant to the Calculation Agent Agreement, the Company may
appoint a different Calculation Agent from time to time after the initial issuance of this Security without the consent of the
Holder of this Security and without notifying the Holder of this Security.


 


Certain Definitions 


 


A “Trading
Day” with respect to the S&P 500 Index or the Russell 2000 Index means a day, as determined by the Calculation Agent,
on which (i) the Relevant Stock Exchanges with respect to each security underlying such Index are scheduled to be open for
trading for their


 






    5 


     


    

 


respective
regular trading sessions and (ii) each Related Futures or Options Exchange with respect to such Index is scheduled to be
open for trading for its regular trading session.


 


A “Trading
Day” with respect to the EURO STOXX 50 Index means a day, as determined by the Calculation Agent, on which (i) the
relevant Index Sponsor is scheduled to publish the level of the EURO STOXX 50 Index and (ii) each Related Futures or Options Exchange
with respect to the EURO STOXX 50 Index is scheduled to be open for trading for its regular trading session.


 


The “Relevant
Stock Exchange” for any security underlying an Index means the primary exchange or quotation system on which such security
is traded, as determined by the Calculation Agent.


 


The “Related
Futures or Options Exchange” for an Index means an exchange or quotation system where trading has a material effect (as
determined by the Calculation Agent) on the overall market for futures or options contracts relating to such Index.


 


Adjustments to an Index


 


If at any time the
method of calculating an Index or a Successor Equity Index, or the closing level thereof, is changed in a material respect, or
if an Index or a Successor Equity Index is in any other way modified so that such index does not, in the opinion of the Calculation
Agent, fairly represent the level of such index had those changes or modifications not been made, then the Calculation Agent will,
at the close of business in New York, New York, on each date that the closing level of such index is to be calculated, make such
calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a
level of an index comparable to such Index or Successor Equity Index as if those changes or modifications had not been made, and
the Calculation Agent will calculate the closing level of such Index or Successor Equity Index with reference to such index, as
so adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating an Index or Successor Equity Index is modified so that the level of such
index is a fraction or a multiple of what it would have been if it had not been modified (e.g., due to a split or reverse
split in such equity index), then the Calculation Agent will adjust such Index or Successor Equity Index in order to arrive at
a level of such index as if it had not been modified (e.g., as if the split or reverse split had not occurred).


 


Discontinuance of an Index


 


If an Index Sponsor
discontinues publication of an Index, and such Index Sponsor or another entity publishes a successor or substitute equity index
that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to such Index (a “Successor Equity Index”),
then, upon the Calculation Agent’s notification of that determination to the Trustee and the Company, the Calculation Agent
will substitute the Successor Equity Index as calculated by the relevant Index Sponsor or any other entity for purposes of calculating
the Closing Level of such Index on any date of determination. Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Equity
Index, the Company will cause notice to be given to the Holder of this Security.


 


In the event that
an Index Sponsor discontinues publication of an Index prior to, and the discontinuance is continuing on, a Calculation Day and
the Calculation Agent determines that no Successor Equity Index is available at such time, the Calculation Agent will calculate
a substitute


 






    6 


     


    

 


Closing
Level for such Index in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating such Index last in effect prior to the discontinuance,
but using only those securities that comprised such Index immediately prior to that discontinuance. If a Successor Equity Index
is selected or the Calculation Agent calculates a level as a substitute for such Index, the Successor Equity Index or level will
be used as a substitute for such Index for all purposes, including the purpose of determining whether a Market Disruption Event
exists.


 


If on a Calculation
Day an Index Sponsor fails to calculate and announce the level of an Index, the Calculation Agent will calculate a substitute Closing
Level of such Index in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating such Index last in effect prior to the failure,
but using only those securities that comprised such Index immediately prior to that failure; provided that, if a Market
Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on such day with respect to such Index, then the provisions set forth above under the
definition of “Calculation Days” shall apply in lieu of the foregoing.

Calculation Agent


 


The Calculation Agent
will determine whether a Contingent Coupon Payment will be made, the Optional Redemption Price, if any, and the Maturity Payment
Amount, if any. In addition, the Calculation Agent will (i) determine if adjustments are required to the Closing Level of
an Index under the circumstances described in this Security, (ii) if publication of an Index is discontinued, select a Successor
Equity Index or, if no Successor Equity Index is available, determine the Closing Level of such 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 this Security is Outstanding, there shall at all times be a Calculation Agent (which shall be a broker-dealer,
bank or other financial institution) with respect to this Security.


 


All determinations
made by the Calculation Agent with respect to this Security will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and, in the

Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed
by Wells Fargo & Company


 


Principal at Risk Securities Linked to

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 April 25, 2018, as amended or supplemented from time to time (herein called
the “Indenture”), among the Company, as issuer, Wells Fargo & Company, as guarantor (the “Guarantor”)
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 Guarantor, 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 of the Securities designated as Medium-Term Notes, Series A, of the Company. The amount payable on the Securities of
this series may be determined by reference to the performance of one or more equity-, commodity- or currency-based indices, exchange
traded funds, securities, commodities, currencies, statistical measures of economic or financial performance, or a basket comprised
of two or more of the foregoing, or any other market measure or may bear interest at a fixed rate or a floating rate. The Securities
of this series may mature at different times, be redeemable at different times or not at all, be repayable at the option of the
Holder at different times or not at all and be denominated in different currencies.


 


The Securities are
issuable only in registered form without coupons and will be either (a) book-entry securities represented by one or more Global
Securities recorded in the book-entry system maintained by the Depositary or (b) certificated securities issued to and registered
in the names of, the beneficial owners or their nominees.


 


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 this Security.


 


Guarantee


 


The Securities of this
series are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor as and to the extent set forth in the Indenture.


 


Modification and Waivers 


 


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 Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time
by the

Company,
the Guarantor 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 as a class. 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 as a class, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company
or the Guarantor 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.

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, upon compliance
by the Company or the Guarantor 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.

therein and to the limitations described below, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection
therewith.

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

Date and other terms and of authorized denominations aggregating a like amount.


 


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 Global Security will not be entitled to receive

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 Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice
to the contrary.

indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of
the Company or any successor corporation or of the Guarantor or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution,
