                               [Face of Debenture]

     The following legend applies if this Security is a Global Security: Unless
this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository
Trust Company, a New York corporation ("DTC"), to the Issuer or its agent for
registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is
registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as requested by an
authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or such
other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY
TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON
IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest
herein.

     This Security is not a deposit or other obligation of a depository
institution and is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the
Bank Insurance Fund or any other governmental agency.

                              WELLS FARGO & COMPANY

             ______% Junior Subordinated Debentures due ____________

     WELLS FARGO & COMPANY, a corporation duly organized and existing under the
laws of the State of Delaware (hereinafter called the "Company", which term
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to),
for value received, hereby promises to pay to
_____________________________________________________________________________,
or registered assigns, the principal sum of
___________________________________($________) on ______________; provided,
however, that the Company may accelerate or extend the Stated Maturity of the
principal of this Security subject to the conditions specified on the reverse
hereof. The Company further promises to pay interest on the principal sum from
______________ or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest
has been paid or duly provided for quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth
herein) on ________, _________ , _________ and _________ of each year commencing
_________ at the rate of __% per annum, together with Additional Sums, if any,
as provided in Section 1007 of the Indenture, until the principal hereof is paid
or made available for payment; provided, however, that any overdue installment
of interest (after giving effect to any Extension Period permitted by this
Security) shall bear Additional Interest at the rate of ___% per annum (to the
extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable),
compounded quarterly, from the date such installment was due until it is paid or
made available for payment. The amount of interest payable for any period less
than a full quarterly interest period shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a partial
month in such period. The amount of interest payable for any full quarterly
interest period shall be computed by dividing the applicable rate per annum by
four. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date will, as provided
<PAGE>

in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or
more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the 15th calendar day
(whether or not a Business Day, as defined below) next preceding such Interest
Payment Date. If an Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, interest on
this Security shall be payable on the next day that is a Business Day, with the
same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, and without any
interest or other payment with respect to the delay. "Business Day" as used
hereinabove is a day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or any other day on which
banking institutions in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Wilmington, Delaware or New
York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain
closed.

     Any interest 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.

     So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company
shall have the right, at any time during the term of this Security, from time to
time to defer the payment of interest on this Security for up to 20 consecutive
quarterly interest payment periods with respect to each deferral period (each an
"Extension Period"), during which Extension Period the Company shall have the
right to make a partial payment of interest on any Interest Payment Date, at the
end of which the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid
including any Additional Interest, as provided below; provided, however, that no
Extension Period shall extend beyond the Maturity of the principal of this
Security and no such Extension Period may end other than at the end of a full
quarterly interest period; and provided, further, however, that during any such
Extension Period, the Company shall not (i) make any payment of principal of or
interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt
securities of the Company that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in
interest to this Security (except for any partial payments of interest with
respect to and permitted under the Securities of this series), or (ii) declare
or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a
liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company's capital stock (other
than (a) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital
stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or
other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees,
officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors, in connection with
a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with
the issuance of capital stock of the Company (or securities convertible into or
exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition
transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, (b) as a
result of an exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of the
Company's capital stock (or any capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company)
for any other class or series of the Company's capital stock or of any class or
series of the Company's indebtedness for any class or series of the Company's
capital stock, (c) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the
Company's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of
such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (d) any
declaration of a dividend in connection with any Rights Plan, or the issuance

                                       2
<PAGE>

of rights, stock or other property under any Rights Plan, or the redemption or
repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (e) payments by the Company under the
Guarantee Agreement, or (f) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options
or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of
such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the
dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock). Prior
to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may further defer
the payment of interest, provided that no Extension Period shall exceed 20
consecutive quarterly interest payment periods, extend beyond the Maturity of
the principal of this Security or end other than at the end of a full quarterly
interest period. Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the
payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any Additional Interest then due
on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect to begin a new Extension
Period, subject to the above conditions. No interest or Additional Interest
shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof,
but each installment of interest that would otherwise have been due and payable
during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest (to the extent that
the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the rate of __%
per annum, compounded quarterly and calculated as set forth in the first
paragraph of this Security, from the dates on which amounts would otherwise have
been due and payable until paid or made available for payment. The Company shall
give the Holder of this Security and the Trustee notice of its election to begin
any Extension Period at least one Business Day prior to the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date on which interest on this Security would be payable but
for such deferral or, so long as such Securities are held by or on behalf of
Wells Fargo Capital [ ], at least one Business Day prior to the earlier of (i)
the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Capital Trust Securities
of such Issuer Trust would be payable but for such deferral, and (ii) the date
on which the Property Trustee of such Issuer Trust is required to give notice to
holders of such Capital Trust Securities of the record date or the date such
Distributions are payable.

     Payment of interest, including Additional Interest, 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, 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; provided, however, that, at the
option of the Company, payment of interest may be paid by check mailed to the
Person entitled thereto at such Person's last address as it appears in the
Security Register or, upon written request of a Holder of $1,000,000 or more in
aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series not less than 15
calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, by wire transfer to
such account as may have been designated by such Person. Payment of principal of
and interest, including Additional Interest, 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.

     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

                                       3

                              WELLS FARGO & COMPANY

            _____% Junior Subordinated Debentures due _______________

     This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of junior subordinated
securities of the Company (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to be
issued in one or more series under an indenture dated as of _____________, as
amended or supplemented from time to time (herein called the "Indenture"),
between the Company and ___________________, 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 $_______________.

     Subject to any required prior approval of the Primary Federal Regulator,
the Company may at any time, at its option, on or after ____________, and
subject to the terms and conditions of Article Eleven of the Indenture, redeem
the Securities of this series in whole at any time or in part from time to time,
at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together,
in the case of any such redemption, with accrued but unpaid interest, including
any Additional Interest, to but excluding the Redemption Date.

     In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Tax
Event, an Investment Company Event or a Capital Treatment Event in respect of
Wells Fargo Capital [ ], the Company may, at its option, at any time within 90
days of the occurrence and during the continuation of such Tax Event, Investment
Company Event or Capital Treatment Event, as the case may be, subject to any
required prior approval of the Primary Federal Regulator, redeem the Securities
of this series, in whole but not in part, subject to the terms and conditions of
Article Eleven of the Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
principal amount thereof, together, in the case of any such redemption, with
accrued but unpaid interest, including any Additional Interest, to but excluding
the Redemption Date.

     In addition, if a Tax Event occurs, then the Company will have the right
prior to the termination of Wells Fargo Capital [ ], to accelerate the Stated
Maturity of the principal of the Securities of this series to the minimum extent
required in order to allow for the payments of interest (including Additional
Interest) in respect of the Securities of this series to continue to be tax
deductible, but in no event shall the resulting Stated Maturity of the
Securities of this series be less than 15 years from the date of original
issuance thereof. The Stated Maturity shall be accelerated only if, in the
opinion of counsel to the Company, experienced in such matters, (a) after
advancing the Stated Maturity, interest paid on the Securities of this series
will be

                                       6
<PAGE>

deductible for United States federal income tax purposes and (b) accelerating
the Stated Maturity will not result in a taxable event to the holders of the
Capital Trust Securities.

     The Company may extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of the
Securities of this series to a date no later than ___________ so long as at the
time such election is made and at the time such extension commences (x) no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing; (y) Wells Fargo Capital [ ] is not in
arrears on payments of distributions on its Capital Trust Securities and no
deferred distributions have accumulated on its Capital Trust Securities and (z)
the Securities of this series are, and after such extension will be, rated at
least BBB- by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, at least Baa3 by Moody's
Investors Service, Inc. or at least the equivalent by any other nationally
recognized statistical rating organization.

     The Securities of this series are not subject to repayment at the option of
the Holder hereof. The Securities of this series will not be entitled to any
sinking fund.

     The indebtedness evidenced by the Securities of this series is, to the
extent and in the manner set forth in the Indenture, subordinate and subject in
right of payment to the prior payment in full of the principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on all Senior Debt of the Company, and each Holder of the
Securities of this series, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound
by the provisions of the Indenture with respect hereto. The Securities of this
series shall, not in limitation of the preceding sentence, rank junior to
______________________________________ and on a parity with
________________________________________________.

     If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to
Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the
Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Indenture.

     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.
All of the rights of the Holders set forth in this paragraph are subject to the
rights of the holders of Capital Trust Securities as set forth in the Indenture.
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.

     The provisions contained in Section 403 and Article Seventeen of the
Indenture for defeasance of the entire indebtedness on this Security and certain
restrictive covenants and certain Events of Default do not apply to this
Security. The provisions contained in Section 401 of the

                                       7
<PAGE>

Indenture for defeasance of the entire indebtedness on this Security in certain
circumstances 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 of $25 or
integral multiples thereof 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.

     If this Security is a Global Security, 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 (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, bearing
interest, including Additional Interest, at the same rate, having the same date
of issuance, redemption provisions, Stated Maturity and other terms and of
authorized denominations aggregating a like amount.

     If this Security is a Global Security, 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 physical
delivery of Securities in definitive form and will not be considered the Holders
hereof for any purpose under the Indenture.

     Subject to the rights of holders of Senior Debt of the Company set forth in
this Security and the Indenture referred to above, no reference herein to the
Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or
impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to
pay the principal of and interest, including any Additional Interest, on this
Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed, except as otherwise provided in this Security and except that in the
event the Company deposits money or Eligible Instruments as provided in Section
401 of the Indenture, such payments will be made only from proceeds of such
money or Eligible Instruments.

     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 principal of or the
interest, including Additional Interest, on this Security, or for any claim
based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the
Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any

                                       8

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.

     The Company and, by its acceptance of this Security or a beneficial
interest herein, the Holder of, and any Person that acquires a beneficial
interest in, this Security, agree that for United States Federal, state and
local tax purposes it is intended that this Security constitute indebtedness.

     All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall

this Security.
