 “Calculation

which term shall, unless the context otherwise requires, include its successors under such Calculation Agent Agreement. 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 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. 
  
 “Calculation Day” means any Trading Day on
which a Market Disruption Event has not occurred. 
  
 “Closing Level” shall mean, on any date, the last reported level of the S&P 500 Index at 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date as reported by S&P; provided, however, that in the event that S&P discontinues
publication of the S&P 500 Index, the Closing Level will be determined in the manner set forth in this Security under “Discontinuance Of The S&P 500 Index; Alteration Of Method Of Calculation.”

Days beginning on and including the fourth Trading Day before December 7, 2011 to and including the second Trading Day before December 7, 2011; provided, however, that if one or more of such Trading Days is not a Calculation Day, the
Calculation Period shall be extended to such date as is necessary so that the Calculation Period consists of three Calculation Days. 
  

 2

S&P 500 Index determined on each of the three Calculation Days during the Calculation Period. 
  
 “Initial Index Level” shall mean 1173.82. 
  
 A “Market Disruption Event” with respect to the S&P 500 Index will occur on any day if the Calculation Agent determines any of the
following: 
  

	 	•	A material suspension or material limitation of trading in 20% or more of the underlying stocks which then comprise the S&P 500 Index or any successor index has occurred on that
day, in each case, during the one-half hour period preceding the close of trading on the primary organized U.S. exchange or trading system on which those stocks are traded or, if in the case of a common stock not listed or quoted in the United
States, on the primary non-U.S. exchange, trading system or market for that security. Limitations on trading during significant market fluctuations imposed pursuant to New York Stock Exchange Rule 80B or any applicable rule or regulation enacted or
promulgated by The New York Stock Exchange, any other exchange, trading system or market, any other self regulatory organization or the Securities and Exchange Commission of similar scope or as a replacement for Rule 80B, may be considered material.
A “trading system” includes bulletin board services. 

  

	 	•	A material suspension or material limitation has occurred on that day, in each case, during the one-half hour period preceding the close of trading in options or futures contracts

	 	•	Information is unavailable on that date, through a recognized system of public dissemination of transaction information, during the one-half hour period preceding the close of
trading, of accurate price, volume or related information in respect of 20% or more of the underlying stocks which then comprise the S&P 500 Index or any successor index or in respect of options or futures contracts related to the S&P 500
Index or any successor index, in each case traded on any major U.S. exchange or trading system or, in the case of securities of a non-U.S. issuer, traded on the primary non-U.S. exchange, trading system or market for that security.


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

	 	•	a limitation on the hours or number of days of trading will not constitute a Market Disruption Event if it results from an announced change in the regular business hours of the
relevant exchange, trading system or market; and 

  

	 	•	close of trading means 4:00 p.m., New York City time. 

  

 3 








 “S&P 500 Index” shall mean the S&P 500 Index as calculated by S&P. 
  
 “Stated Maturity Date” shall mean December 7, 2011; provided,
however, that if a Market Disruption Event occurs during the period beginning on and including the fourth Trading Day before December 7, 2011 to and including the second Trading Day before December 7, 2011 such that one or more of such Trading
Days is not a Calculation Day, the Stated Maturity Date will be postponed until two Business Days after the final day of the Calculation Period. 
  
 “Trading Day” shall mean each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday that is a day on which The New York Stock Exchange, The Nasdaq
National Market and the American Stock Exchange are open for trading. 
  
 Discontinuance Of The S&P 500 Index; Alteration Of Method Of Calculation 
  
 If S&P discontinues publication of the S&P 500 Index and S&P or another entity publishes a successor or substitute index that the Calculation
Agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to the discontinued S&P 500 Index, then any subsequent Closing Level will be determined by reference to the level of such successor or substitute index (in any such case, a
“successor index”) at 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that any such subsequent Closing Level 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 S&P discontinues publication of the S&P 500 Index
prior to, and such discontinuance is continuing on, the date that any Closing Level 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
each subsequent Closing Level to be used in computing the Additional Amount. Each such Closing Level will be computed by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the S&P 500 Index last in effect prior to
such discontinuance, using the Closing Price (or, if trading in the relevant security 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 S&P 500 Index on the primary organized U.S. exchange or trading system. “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 U.S.
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 S&P 500 Index, such successor index or Closing Level will be used as a substitute for the S&P 500
Index for all purposes, including for purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event exists. 
  

 4 








 If at any time the method of calculating the S&P 500 Index or a successor index, or the Closing Level
thereof, is changed in a material respect, or if the S&P 500 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 S&P 500 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 S&P 500 Index or such successor index, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications had not been made,
and calculate the Closing Level and the Additional Amount with reference to the S&P 500 Index or such successor index, as adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the S&P 500 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 S&P 500 Index or such
successor index as if it had not been modified (for example, as if such split had not occurred). 
  
 Calculation Agent 
  
 The Calculation Agent will determine the Additional Amount, if any, and the Maturity Payment Amount. In addition, the Calculation Agent will: 

 

	 	•	determine if adjustments are required to the Closing Level under the circumstances described in this Security; 

  

	 	•	if publication of the S&P 500 Index is discontinued, select a successor index or, if no successor index is available, determine the Final Index Level; and


  

	 	•	determine whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred and whether the Stated Maturity Date will be postponed. 

  
 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 
  

 5 








 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 
  
 Callable Notes Linked to the S&P 500 Index® due December 7, 2011 
  
 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 principal
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 repayment at the option of the Holder hereof prior to the Stated Maturity Date. The Securities of this series will not be entitled to any sinking fund. 
  
 The Securities of this series are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, on the dates indicated
below or on any date during the period indicated below (each, a “Redemption Date”). The redemption prices for each $1,000 principal amount of the Securities of this series (as indicated on the face of the Securities of this series as the
“Principal Amount”) to be redeemed are set forth in the table below (each, a “Redemption Price”): 
  

				
	 Date/Period

	  	Redemption Price


	 December 7, 2005
	  	$	1,100
	 December 7, 2006
	  	$	1,200
	 December 7, 2007
	  	$	1,300
	 December 8, 2008
	  	$	1,400
	 During the period beginning on December 7, 2009 to and including December 7, 2011
	  	$	1,500

  
 The final date on
which the Securities of this series may be redeemed will not change due to the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event. 
  

 8 








 Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption
Date to each Holder of the Securities of this series to be redeemed. 
  
 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 Stated Maturity 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 (i) to treat this Security as a single debt
instrument subject to the Treasury regulations governing contingent payment debt instruments, (ii) to report all income (or loss) with respect to this Security according to those Treasury regulations, and (iii) to be bound by the Company’s
determination of the “comparable yield” and the “projected payment schedule” (within the meaning of such Treasury regulations) for this Security, unless such beneficial owner timely discloses and justifies in its federal income
tax return the use of a different comparable yield and projected payment schedule. 
  
 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 “Principal 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. 
  

 9 








 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 principal 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. 
  
 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
