Interest rates m ay change significantly over the term of the notes, and it is im possible to predict what interest rates will be at any
point in the future. Although the interest rate on the notes will increase to preset rates at scheduled intervals during the term of the
notes, the interest rate that will apply at any tim e on the notes m ay be m ore or less than prevailing m arket interest rates at such tim e.
As a result, the am ount of interest you receive on the notes m ay be less than the return you could earn on other investm ents.

It is m ore likely that we will redeem the notes prior to the stated m aturity date during periods when the rem aining interest is to
accrue on the notes at a rate that is greater than that which we would pay on a conventional fixed -rate non -redeem able note of
com parable m aturity. If we redeem the notes prior to the stated m aturity date, you m ay not be able to invest in other notes that yield
as m uch interest as the notes.

The interest rate payable on the notes during their term will increase from the initial interest rate, subject to our right to redeem the
notes. If we do not redeem the notes, the interest rate will step up as described herein. You should not expect to earn the higher
stated interest rates which are applicable only after the first five years of the term of the notes because, unless general interest rates
rise significantly, the notes are likely to be redeem ed prior to the stated m aturity date. When determ ining whether to invest in the
notes, you should consider, am ong other things, the overall annual percentage rate of interest to redem ption as com pared to other
equivalent investm ent alternatives rather than the higher stated interest rates which are applicable only after the first five years of the
term of the notes.

The notes have a term of ten years, subject to our right to redeem the notes starting on February 24, 20 21. By purchasing notes with a
longer term , you will bear greater exposure to fluctuations in interest rates than if you purchased a note with a shorter term . In
particular, you m ay be negatively affected if interest rates begin to rise because the likelihood that we will redeem your notes will
decrease and the interest rate applicable to your notes during a particular interest period m ay be less than the am ount of interest you
could earn on other investm ents available at such tim e. In addition, if you tried to sell your notes at such tim e, the value of your notes
in any secondary m arket transaction would also be adversely affected.

the notes are subject to our creditworthiness. As a result, our actual and perceived creditworthiness m ay affect the value of the notes

Paym ent of principal on the notes m ay be accelerated only in the case of paym ent defaults that continue for a period of 30 days or
certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, whether voluntary or involuntary. If you purchase the notes, you will have no right to
accelerate the paym ent of principal on the notes if we fail in the perform ance of any of our obligations under the notes, other than
the obligations to pay principal and interest on the notes. See "Description of the Notes--Events of Default and Acceleration Rights"

such as a discount to account for costs associated with establishing or unwinding any related hedge transaction. The price at which

The value of the notes prior to stated m aturity will be affected by interest rates at that tim e and a num ber of other factors, som e of
which are interrelated in com plex ways. The effect of any one factor m ay be offset or m agnified by the effect of another factor. The
following factors, am ong others, are expected to affect the value of the notes. When we refer to the "value" of your note, we m ean the

However, because the return on the notes is dependent upon factors in addition to our ability to pay our obligations

under the notes, such as whether we exercise our option to redeem the notes, an im provem ent in our
creditworthiness will not reduce the other investm ent risks related to the notes.

The notes will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or any autom ated quotation system . Although the agent and/ or its

There can be no assurance that a secondary m arket will develop. Because we do not expect that any m arket m akers will participate in
a secondary m arket for the notes, the price at which you m ay be able to sell your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at
which the agent is willing to buy your notes.
If a secondary m arket does exist, it m ay be lim ited. Accordingly, there m ay be a lim ited num ber of buyers if you decide to sell your

Your ability to recover the full am ount that would otherwise be payable on the notes in a proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code
m ay be im paired by the exercise by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") of its powers under the "orderly
liquidation authority" under Title II of the Dodd -Frank Wall Street Reform and Consum er Protection Act (the "Dodd -Frank Act "). In
particular, the single point of entry strategy described below is intended to im pose losses at the top-tier holding com pany level in the
resolution of a Global System ically Im portant Bank ("G-SIB") such as Wells Fargo.
Title II of the Dodd -Frank Act created a new resolution regim e known as the "orderly liquidation authority" to which financial
com panies, including bank holding com panies such as Wells Fargo, can be subjected. Under the orderly liquidation authority, the
FDIC m ay be appointed as receiver for a financial com pany for purposes of liquidating the entity if, upon the recom m endation of
applicable regulators, the United States Secretary of the Treasury determ ines, am ong other things, that the entity is in severe
financial distress, that the entity's failure would have serious adverse effects on the U.S. financial system and that resolution under
the orderly liquidation authority would avoid or m itigate those effects. Absent such determ inations, Wells Fargo, as a bank holding
com pany, would rem ain subject to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
If the FDIC is appointed as receiver under the orderly liquidation authority, then the orderly liquidation authority, rather than the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code, would determ ine the powers of the receiver and the rights and obligations of creditors and other parties who
have transacted with Wells Fargo. There are substantial differences between the rights available to creditors in the orderly liquidation
authority and under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, including the right of the FDIC under the orderly liquidation authority to disregard
the strict priority of creditor claim s in som e circum stances (which would otherwise be respected by a bankruptcy court) and the use
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/72971/000119312517053662/d350176d424b2.htm[2/23/2017 2:31:14 PM]


Definitive Pricing Supplement No. 2
of an adm inistrative claim s procedure to determ ine creditors' claim s (as opposed to the judicial procedure utilized in bankruptcy
proceedings). In certain circum stances under the orderly liquidation authority, the FDIC could elevate the priority of claim s if it
determ ines that doing so is necessary to facilitate a sm ooth and orderly liquidation without the need to obtain the consent of other
creditors or prior court review. In addition, under the orderly liquidation authority, the FDIC has the right to transfer assets or
liabilities of the failed com pany to a third party or "bridge" entity.
The FDIC has announced that a "single point of entry" strategy m ay be a desirable strategy to resolve a large financial institution such
as Wells Fargo in a m anner that would, am ong other things, im pose losses on shareholders, unsecured debt holders (including, in our
case, holders of the notes) and other creditors of the top-tier holding com pany (in our case, Wells Fargo), while perm itting the
holding com pany's subsidiaries to continue to operate. In addition, in Decem ber 20 16, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (the "FRB") finalized rules requiring U.S. G-SIBs, including Wells Fargo, to m aintain m inim um am ounts of long-term debt
and total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC). It is possible that the application of the single point of entry strategy--in which Wells
Fargo would be the only legal entity to enter resolution proceedings--could result in greater losses to holders of the notes than the
losses that would result from the application of a bankruptcy proceeding or a different resolution strategy for Wells Fargo. Assum ing
Wells Fargo entered resolution proceedings and that support from Wells Fargo to its subsidiaries was sufficient to enable the
subsidiaries to rem ain solvent, losses at the subsidiary level could be transferred to Wells Fargo and ultim ately borne by Wells
Fargo's security holders (including holders of the notes and our other unsecured debt securities), with the result that third -party
creditors of Wells Fargo's subsidiaries would receive full recoveries on their claim s, while Wells Fargo's security holders (including
holders of the notes) and other unsecured creditors could face significant losses. In that case, Wells Fargo's security holders could face
significant losses while the third -party creditors of Wells Fargo's subsidiaries would incur no losses because the subsidiaries would
continue to operate and would not enter resolution or bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, holders of the notes and other debt
securities of Wells Fargo could face losses ahead of our other sim ilarly situated creditors in a resolution under the orderly liquidation
authority if the FDIC exercised its right, described above, to disregard the strict priority of creditor claim s.

PRS-5
The orderly liquidation authority also requires that creditors and shareholders of the financial com pany in receivership m ust bear all
losses before taxpayers are exposed to any losses, and am ounts owed by the financial com pany or the receivership to the U.S.
governm ent would generally receive a statutory paym ent priority over the claim s of private creditors, including senior creditors such
as claim s in respect of the notes. In addition, under the orderly liquidation authority, claim s of creditors (including holders of the
notes) could be satisfied through the issuance of equity or other securities in a bridge entity to which Wells Fargo's assets are
transferred. If securities were to be delivered in satisfaction of claim s, there can be no assurance that the value of the securities of the
bridge entity would be sufficient to repay all or any part of the creditor claim s for which the securities were exchanged.
While the FDIC has issued regulations to im plem ent the orderly liquidation authority, not all aspects of how the FDIC m ight exercise
this authority are known and additional rulem aking is possible.

As required by the Dodd -Frank Act and regulations issued by the FRB and the FDIC, we are required to provide to the FRB and the
FDIC a plan for our rapid and orderly resolution in the event of m aterial financial distress affecting Wells Fargo or the failure of
Wells Fargo. The strategy described in our m ost recently filed resolution plan is a "m ultiple point of entry" strategy, in which Wells
Fargo, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("WFBNA") and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC ("WFS") would each undergo separate
resolution proceedings under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, and the Securities Investor Protection
Act, respectively. To further the orderly resolution of its businesses and those of its subsidiaries, Wells Fargo m ay provide capital and
liquidity resources to certain of its m ajor subsidiaries (such as WFBNA and WFS) during any period of distress, including through
the forgiveness of intercom pany indebtedness, the m aking of additional intercom pany loans and by other m eans. These subsidiaries
m ay enter into separate resolution proceedings even after receiving capital and liquidity resources from Wells Fargo. It is possible
that creditors of som e or all of Wells Fargo's m ajor subsidiaries would receive significant, or even full, recoveries on their claim s
while holders of Wells Fargo's debt securities (including holders of the notes) could face significant or com plete losses. It is also
possible that holders of Wells Fargo's debt securities (including holders of the notes) could face greater losses than if the m ultiple
point of entry strategy had not been im plem ented and Wells Fargo had not provided capital and liquidity resources to m ajor
subsidiaries that enter separate resolution proceedings because assets and other resources provided to those subsidiaries would not
be available to pay Wells Fargo's creditors (including holders of the notes and Wells Fargo's other debt securities).
It m ay also be possible for Wells Fargo to be resolved under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code using a strategy in which only Wells Fargo
itself enters proceedings while som e or all of its operating subsidiaries are m aintained as going concerns. In this case, the effects on
creditors of Wells Fargo would likely be sim ilar to those arising under the orderly liquidation authority, as described above. To carry
out such a strategy, Wells Fargo m ay seek to recapitalize its subsidiaries or provide them with liquidity in order to preserve them as
going concerns prior to the com m encem ent of Wells Fargo's bankruptcy proceeding. Moreover, Wells Fargo could seek to elevate the
priority of its guarantee obligations relating to its m ajor subsidiaries' derivatives contracts over its other obligations, so that cross-

default and early term ination rights under derivatives contracts at its subsidiaries would be stayed under the ISDA Resolution Stay
Protocol. This elevation would result in holders of our debt securities (including the notes) incurring losses ahead of the beneficiaries
of those guarantee obligations. It is also possible that holders of our debt securities (including the notes) could incur losses ahead of
other sim ilarly situated creditors.
If either resolution strategy proved to be unsuccessful, holders of our debt securities (including the notes) m ay as a consequence be in
a worse position than if the strategy had not been im plem ented. In all cases, any paym ents to holders of our debt securities are
dependent on our ability to m ake such paym ents and are therefore subject to our credit risk.

U N ITED STATES FED ERAL TAX CON SID ERATION S
The following is a discussion of the m aterial U.S. federal incom e and certain estate tax consequences of the ownership and
disposition of the notes. It applies to you only if you purchase a note for cash in the initial offering at the "issue price," which is the
first price at which a substantial am ount of the notes is sold to the public, and hold the note as a capital asset within the m eaning of
Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 198 6, as am ended (the "Code "). It does not address all of the tax consequences that
m ay be relevant to you in light of your particular circum stances or if you are an investor subject to special rules, such as:


· a financial institution;


· a "regulated investm ent com pany";


· a "real estate investm ent trust";


· a tax-exem pt entity, including an "individual retirem ent account" or "Roth IRA";


· a dealer or trader subject to a m ark-to-m arket m ethod of tax accounting with respect to the notes;

· a person holding a note as part of a "straddle" or conversion transaction or who has entered into a "constructive sale" with

respect to a note;


· a U.S. holder (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; or


· an entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal incom e tax purposes.
If an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal incom e tax purposes holds the notes, the U.S. federal incom e tax
treatm ent of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partnership
holding the notes or a partner in such a partnership, you should consult your tax adviser as to the particular U.S. federal tax
consequences of holding and disposing of the notes to you.
This discussion is based on the Code, adm inistrative pronouncem ents, judicial decisions and final, tem porary and proposed Treasury
regulations, all as of the date hereof, changes to any of which subsequent to the date hereof m ay affect the tax consequences
described herein, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not address the effects of any applicable state, local or non -
U.S. tax laws, any alternative m inim um tax consequences or the potential application of the Medicare tax on net investm ent incom e.
You should consult your tax adviser concerning the application of U.S. federal incom e and estate tax laws to your particular situation,
as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non -U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, the notes will be treated as "fixed rate debt instrum ents" that are issued
without original issue discount ("OID") for U.S. federal incom e tax purposes.
Ta x Co n s e qu e n ce s to U .S. H o ld e rs
This section applies only to U.S. holders. You are a "U.S. holder " if you are a beneficial owner of a note that is, for U.S. federal
incom e tax purposes:


· a citizen or individual resident of the United States;


· a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state therein or the District of Colum bia; or


· an estate or trust the incom e of which is subject to U.S. federal incom e taxation regardless of its source.

Under applicable Treasury regulations, we will generally be presum ed to exercise our option to redeem the notes if the exercise of the
option would lower the yield on the notes. The yield on the notes would be lowered if we redeem ed the notes before the initial
increase in the interest rate, and therefore the notes will not be treated as issued with OID. If, contrary to the presum ption in the
applicable Treasury regulations, we do not redeem the notes before the initial increase in the interest rate, solely for purposes of
calculating OID, the notes will be treated as if they were redeem ed and new notes were issued on the presum ed exercise date for the
notes' principal am ount. The sam e analysis will generally apply to the subsequent increases in the interest rate, which m eans a note
that is deem ed reissued will generally be treated as redeem ed prior to any subsequent increase in the interest rate, and therefore as
issued without OID. The rules governing short -term debt instrum ents m ay apply to a note deem ed reissued in conjunction with the
final scheduled increase in the interest rate. You should consult your tax adviser concerning the possible application of these rules.
Sale, Exchan ge or R etirem en t of the N otes. You will recogn ize capital gain or loss on the sale, exchan ge or retirem en t of a n ote equal
to the difference between the am ount received (other than am ounts received in respect of accrued interest, which will be treated as
described under "--Interest on the Notes") and your adjusted tax basis in the note. Your adjusted tax basis in a note generally will be
equal to your original purchase price for the note. Your gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if at the tim e of the
sale, exchange or retirem ent you held the notes for m ore than one year, and short -term capital gain or loss otherwise. Long-term
capital gains recognized by non -corporate U.S. holders are generally subject to taxation at reduced rates. Any capital loss you
recognize m ay be subject to lim itations.
Ta x Co n s e qu e n ce s to N o n -U .S. H o ld e rs
This section applies only to non -U.S. holders. You are a "non -U.S. holder " if you are a beneficial owner of a note that is, for U.S.
federal incom e tax purposes:


· an individual who is classified as a nonresident alien;


· a foreign corporation; or


· a foreign estate or trust.
You are not a non -U.S. holder for purposes of this discussion if you are (i) an individual who is present in the United States for 18 3
days or m ore in the taxable year of disposition, (ii) a form er citizen or resident of the United States or (iii) a person for whom incom e
or gain in respect of the notes is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If you are or m ay
becom e such a person during the period in which you hold a note, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax
consequences of an investm ent in the notes.
Subject to the discussions below concerning backup withholding and FATCA, you will not be subject to U.S. federal incom e or
withholding tax in respect of the notes, provided that:

· you do not own, directly or by attribution, ten percent or m ore of the total com bined voting power of all classes of our stock

entitled to vote;


· you are not a controlled foreign corporation related, directly or indirectly, to us through stock ownership;


· you are not a bank receiving interest under Section 8 8 1(c)(3)(A) of the Code; and

· you provide to the applicable withholding agent an appropriate Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Form W-8 on which you

certify under penalties of perjury that you are not a U.S. person.

Individual non -U.S. holders and entities the property of which is potentially includible in such an individual's gross estate for U.S.
federal estate tax purposes (for exam ple, a trust funded by such an individual and with respect to which the individual has retained
certain interests or powers) should consider the U.S. federal estate tax im plications of an investm ent in the notes. Absent an
applicable treaty benefit, a note will be treated as U.S.-situs property subject to U.S. federal estate tax if paym ents on the note if
received by the decedent at the tim e of death would have been subject to U.S. federal withholding tax (even if the IRS Form W-8
certification requirem ent described above were satisfied and not taking into account an elim ination of such U.S. federal withholding

to the application of an incom e tax treaty). You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal estate tax consequences of

Inform ation returns generally will be filed with the IRS with respect to paym ents of interest on the notes and m ay be filed with the
IRS in connection with the paym ent of proceeds from a sale, exchange or other disposition of the notes. If you fail to provide certain
identifying inform ation (such as an accurate taxpayer identification num ber if you are a U.S. holder) or m eet certain other
conditions, you m ay also be subject to backup withholding at the rate specified in the Code. If you are a non -U.S. holder that provides
an appropriate IRS Form W-8 , you will generally establish an exem ption from backup withholding. Am ounts withheld under the
backup withholding rules are not additional taxes and m ay be refunded or credited against your U.S. federal incom e tax liability,
provided the relevant inform ation is tim ely furnished to the IRS.
FATCA Le gis la tio n
Legislation com m only referred to as "FATCA" generally im poses a withholding tax of 30 % on paym ents to certain non -U.S. entities
(including financial interm ediaries) with respect to certain financial instrum ents, unless various U.S. inform ation reporting and due
diligence requirem ents have been satisfied. An intergovernm ental agreem ent between the United States and the non -U.S. entity's
jurisdiction m ay m odify these requirem ents. Withholding under these rules (if applicable) applies to paym ents of am ounts treated as
interest on the notes and, after 20 18 , to paym ents of gross proceeds of the disposition (including upon retirem ent) of the notes. If
withholding applies to the notes, we will not be required to pay any additional am ounts with respect to am ounts withheld. Both U.S.
and non -U.S. holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the potential application of FATCA to the notes.
