 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 CEDE & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of
                            
($                    ) on the Stated Maturity Date shown above (except to the extent redeemed or

 
repaid prior to such date) and to pay interest, if any, on the principal amount hereof from the Original Issue Date or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid
or duly provided for on each Interest Payment Date set forth above, commencing on the Initial Interest Payment Date shown above, and at Maturity at the Interest Rate shown above (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) until
the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided 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 next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Interest payable upon Maturity will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. The Regular Record
Date for an Interest Payment Date shall be the fifteenth calendar day, whether or not a Business Day, prior to 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. If the date of Maturity would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and any premium and interest shall be made on the next Business Day, with the
same force and effect as if made on the due date, and no additional interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such date of Maturity. For purposes of this Security, “Business Day” means a day other than a
Saturday or Sunday, (i) that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law or regulation to close (a) in New York, New York or Minneapolis, Minnesota, (b) if this Security is
denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, euro or Australian dollars, in the principal financial center of the country of the Specified Currency or (c) if this Security is denominated in Australian dollars, in Sydney,
Australia and (ii) if this Security is denominated in euro, that is also a TARGET Settlement Day. For purposes of this Security, “TARGET Settlement Day” means any day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement
Express Transfer System is open. 
 If this Security has been issued upon transfer of, in exchange for, or in replacement of, a
Predecessor Security, interest on this Security shall accrue from the last Interest Payment Date to which interest was paid on such Predecessor Security or, if no interest was paid on such Predecessor Security, from the Original Issue Date specified
above. The first payment of interest on a Security originally issued and dated between a Regular Record Date specified above and an Interest Payment Date will be due and payable on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Regular
Record Date to the registered owner on such next succeeding Regular Record Date. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an
Addendum is attached hereto or “Other/Additional Terms” apply to this Security as specified above, this Security shall be subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such “Other/Additional Terms.” 
 The principal (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security is payable by the Company in the Specified Currency specified above.

  

 2 

 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. 
 Payment of interest on this Security, other than payments of interest at Maturity, will be paid by check mailed to the Person entitled
thereto at such Person’s last address as it appears in the Security Register or by wire transfer to such account as may have been designated by such Person. Payment of principal of and 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as this Security is a Global Security registered in the name of the
Depositary, payments of principal and interest on this Security will be made to the Depositary by wire transfer of immediately available funds. 
 The Company will pay any administrative costs imposed by banks on payors in making payments on this Security in immediately available funds and the Holder of this Security will pay any administrative
costs imposed by banks on payees in connection with such payments. Any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon payments on this Security will be borne by the Holder of this Security. 
 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 
 MEDIUM-TERM FIXED
RATE NOTE, SERIES I 
 Due Nine Months or More From Date of Issue 
 General 
 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 of the Securities designated as Medium-Term Notes, Series I, of the Company, which series is limited to an aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000,000 or the equivalent
thereof in one or more foreign or composite currencies minus the aggregate principal amount of the Company’s Subordinated Medium-Term Notes, Series J which may be issued from time to time. The Securities of this series may mature at different
times, bear interest, if any, at different rates, be redeemable at different times or not at all, be repayable at the option of the Holder at different times or not at all, be issued at an original issue discount 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. 

Events of Default 
 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. 
 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 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

  

 5 

 
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 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. 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. 
 Defeasance and Covenant
Defeasance 
 The Indenture contains provisions for 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, which provisions apply to this Security. 
 Redemption 
 If so provided
on the face hereof, the Company may at its option redeem this Security in whole or in part in increments of $1,000 (provided that any remaining principal amount of this Security shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination hereof) on
or after the date or dates designated as the Redemption Date(s) on the face hereof at 100% of the unpaid principal amount hereof or the portion thereof redeemed, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date or, if a Redemption
Price other than 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed is specified on the face hereof, the Redemption Price specified in the Addendum attached hereto. The Company may exercise such option by mailing a notice of such redemption to each Holder
of the Securities of this series to be redeemed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the applicable Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, the Company
shall issue a new Security or Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. If less than all of the Securities of this series with like tenor and terms are to be redeemed, the Securities
to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of the Securities of this series held by a Holder
equal to an authorized denomination. If this Security is a Global Security and if less than all of the Securities of this series are to be redeemed, the redemption shall be made in accordance with the Depositary’s customary procedures. Unless
the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the applicable Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on this Security or portion hereof called for redemption. 
  

 6 

 Sinking Fund 
 Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, this Security will not be entitled to any sinking fund. 
 Repayment 
 If so provided on the face hereof, this Security will be repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date
at the option of the Holder, in whole or in part and in increments of $1,000 (provided that any remaining principal amount of this Security surrendered for partial repayment shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination hereof), on or
after the date designated as an Optional Repayment Date on the face hereof at 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, plus accrued interest, if any, to the Repayment Date or, if a Repayment Price other than 100% of the principal amount to be
repaid is specified on the face hereof, at the Repayment Price specified in the Addendum attached hereto. In order for this Security to be repaid, the Paying Agent must receive at least 30 days but not more than 45 days prior to the Optional
Repayment Date this Security with the form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” on the reverse of this Security duly completed, or a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange, or
the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth: (a) the name of the Holder of this Security; (b) the principal amount of this Security; (c) the principal
amount of this Security to be repaid; (d) the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Security; (e) a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised; and (f) a guarantee that this Security,
together with the duly completed form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment,” will be received by the Paying Agent not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of the telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. However, the
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter will only be effective if this Security and form duly completed are received by the Paying Agent by the fifth Business Day after the date of that telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter.

 Any repayment option exercised by the Holder of this Security shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised for
less than the entire principal amount of this Security, but in that event the principal amount of this Security remaining outstanding after repayment must be equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Upon any partial repayment, this Security
shall be cancelled and a new Security or Securities for the remaining principal amount hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Security. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Repayment Price, on and after the applicable
Repayment Date interest will cease to accrue on this Security or portion hereof requested to be repaid.

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

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 qualified successor depositary is not appointed

to terminate the book-entry system through the Depositary 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 at the same rate, having the same date of issuance, redemption provisions, Stated Maturity Date and other terms and of authorized
denominations aggregating a like amount. 
 If this Security is a Global Security (as specified above), 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.

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.

which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and 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 Articles 4 and 15 of the Indenture, such payments will be made only from proceeds of such money or Eligible Instruments. 
  

 8 

 No Personal Recourse 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the 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 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. 
 Defined Terms 
 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.
