amount of deferred compensation obligations that may be issued by Wells Fargo under the Wells Fargo&nbsp;&amp; Company Deferred Compensation Plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;). Following is a summary of the Plan as it relates to those deferred compensation
obligations. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The purpose of the Plan is to allow a select group of
management and highly-compensated employees to defer receipt of compensation. The Plan is an unfunded non-qualified deferred compensation plan under the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan is not subject to the reporting, disclosure, participation,
vesting, funding, fiduciary responsibility, or certain other requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subject to dollar and/or percentage limitations and certain other exclusions imposed under the Plan, a participant may defer salary,
incentives, commissions and bonuses. On the day that compensation would have otherwise been paid to a participant, a deferral account in the name of the participant is credited based on the gross deferral amount less Federal Insurance Contributions
Act (FICA) contributions and other withholding obligations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subject to certain exceptions and restrictions, a participant&#146;s deferral
account balance is indexed to one or more hypothetical or &#147;phantom&#148; investment media chosen by the participant from the phantom investment media available under the Plan. A participant&#146;s deferred compensation benefit payable under the
Plan increases or decreases based on the investment performance of the selected media. Amounts deferred are fully vested at all times, subject to penalties in the event of early withdrawals under the Plan. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The deferred compensation obligations are general unsecured obligations of Wells Fargo. In the event of Wells Fargo&#146;s bankruptcy or
insolvency, participants will become general unsecured creditors of Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo is not required to establish or maintain any fund or trust to provide for the payment of the deferred compensation obligations. If a fund or trust is
established, Plan participants will have no special or priority claim to the assets of the fund or trust, and the fund or trust will be available to satisfy claims of creditors in the event of Wells Fargo&#146;s bankruptcy or insolvency. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">No trustee has been appointed having authority to take action with respect to the deferred compensation obligations. Each participant is
responsible for acting independently with respect to the giving of notices, responding to any requests for consents, waivers or amendments pertaining to the deferred compensation obligations, and taking action upon default. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The deferred compensation obligations are not convertible into any other security of Wells Fargo except that, subject to the terms of the
Plan, deferral account balances may be allocated to the Wells Fargo common stock investment medium at the time of deferral or thereafter and deferral account balances allocated to the Wells Fargo common stock investment medium are distributed in
shares of Wells Fargo common stock. Wells Fargo has registered the shares of its common stock that are distributable under the Plan pursuant to a Form&nbsp;S-8 registration statement (File No.&nbsp;333-142941) filed with the Commission on
May&nbsp;14, 2007. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The deferred compensation obligations do not have the benefit of any negative pledges or of any covenants on the part
of Wells Fargo other than to pay the deferred compensation obligations in accordance with the terms of the Plan. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As part of their

provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </TD></TR></TABLE>

Item 4.
Description of Securities.
This registration statement covers $900,000,000 in principal
amount of deferred compensation obligations that may be issued by Wells Fargo under the Wells Fargo & Company Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Following is a summary of the Plan as it relates to those deferred compensation
obligations. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan.
The purpose of the Plan is to allow a select group of
management and highly-compensated employees to defer receipt of compensation. The Plan is an unfunded non-qualified deferred compensation plan under the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan is not subject to the reporting, disclosure, participation,
vesting, funding, fiduciary responsibility, or certain other requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Subject to dollar and/or percentage limitations and certain other exclusions imposed under the Plan, a participant may defer salary,
incentives, commissions and bonuses. On the day that compensation would have otherwise been paid to a participant, a deferral account in the name of the participant is credited based on the gross deferral amount less Federal Insurance Contributions
Act (FICA) contributions and other withholding obligations.
Subject to certain exceptions and restrictions, a participant's deferral
account balance is indexed to one or more hypothetical or "phantom" investment media chosen by the participant from the phantom investment media available under the Plan. A participant's deferred compensation benefit payable under the
Plan increases or decreases based on the investment performance of the selected media. Amounts deferred are fully vested at all times, subject to penalties in the event of early withdrawals under the Plan.
The deferred compensation obligations are general unsecured obligations of Wells Fargo. In the event of Wells Fargo's bankruptcy or
insolvency, participants will become general unsecured creditors of Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo is not required to establish or maintain any fund or trust to provide for the payment of the deferred compensation obligations. If a fund or trust is
established, Plan participants will have no special or priority claim to the assets of the fund or trust, and the fund or trust will be available to satisfy claims of creditors in the event of Wells Fargo's bankruptcy or insolvency.
No trustee has been appointed having authority to take action with respect to the deferred compensation obligations. Each participant is
responsible for acting independently with respect to the giving of notices, responding to any requests for consents, waivers or amendments pertaining to the deferred compensation obligations, and taking action upon default.
The deferred compensation obligations are not convertible into any other security of Wells Fargo except that, subject to the terms of the
Plan, deferral account balances may be allocated to the Wells Fargo common stock investment medium at the time of deferral or thereafter and deferral account balances allocated to the Wells Fargo common stock investment medium are distributed in
shares of Wells Fargo common stock. Wells Fargo has registered the shares of its common stock that are distributable under the Plan pursuant to a Form S-8 registration statement (File No. 333-142941) filed with the Commission on
May 14, 2007.
The deferred compensation obligations do not have the benefit of any negative pledges or of any covenants on the part
of Wells Fargo other than to pay the deferred compensation obligations in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
As part of their
deferral elections, participants choose the time and manner of distribution of their deferral accounts. Payment of deferral accounts is made at the time and in the form elected, subject to the following general rules:
•
If a participant incurs a separation from service from Wells Fargo and its subsidiaries for any reason before commencement of distribution of a
deferral account balance relating to deferral year 2000 or later, the deferral account balance (with the exception of the total amount of supplemental 401(k) company matching contribution allocations and any supplemental 401(k) discretionary
profit-sharing contribution allocations accumulated pursuant to the terms of the Plan) will be distributed in the form elected by the
II-2
participant beginning as soon as practicable after the March 1 immediately following the participant's separation from service, subject to any restriction under Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Deferral account balances relating to deferral years 1999 and earlier are subject to the same rule if a participant has made certain specified and permitted modifications to the
participant's election for that year.
•
If a participant incurs a separation from service after commencement of distribution, the deferral account balance (with the exception of the total amount of supplemental 401(k) company matching contribution allocations
and any supplemental 401(k) discretionary profit-sharing contribution allocations accumulated pursuant to the terms of the Plan) will continue to be distributed in accordance with the participant's election.
•
The total amount of supplemental 401(k) company matching contribution allocations, if applicable, and any supplemental 401(k) discretionary profit-sharing contribution allocations accumulated pursuant to the terms of
the Plan, will automatically be paid in a lump sum as soon as practicable after the March 1 following the participant's separation from service, subject to any restriction under Section 409A of the Code.
•
If a participant's aggregate deferral balance for accounts earned and vested prior to January 1, 2005 is less than $25,000 at the end of the month in which the participant incurs a separation from service, the
participant's entire deferral account balance will be distributed in a lump sum as soon as practicable after the March 1 immediately following the participant's separation from service.
•
If a participant's aggregate deferral balance for accounts not earned and vested prior to January 1, 2005 is less than the applicable dollar amount under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B) (which for 2015 is
$18,000) at the end of the month following the participant's separation from service or death and a lump sum payment of that amount would result in termination and liquidation of the participant's entire interest under the Plan and any
other deferred compensation arrangements with respect to which deferrals of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan under applicable Treasury regulations, taking into account only such
interests as are subject to Code Section 409A, then that amount will be distributed in a lump sum on the first payment date that would occur under the Plan.
•
Account balances indexed to the Wells Fargo common stock investment medium are distributed in shares of Wells Fargo common stock. Account balances indexed to any other investment medium are distributed in cash.
•
The Plan generally permits early withdrawal of deferral account balances relating to deferral years 2003 and earlier subject to certain conditions, including penalties, and provided that the participant has not
previously elected to defer commencement of distribution of such deferral account balances. The Plan does not permit this form of early withdrawal of deferral account balances relating to deferral years 2004 and later. However, for deferral
account balances relating to deferral years 2013 and later, a participant may request a hardship withdrawal in the event of an unforeseeable emergency, as defined in the Plan, in which case the amount withdrawn may not exceed the amount reasonably
necessary to satisfy the unforeseeable emergency.
A participant may not assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer any
right to or interest in the participant's deferral account balances except as permitted under the Plan.
Wells Fargo's Board of
Directors or the Human Resources Committee of Wells Fargo's Board of Directors may at any time terminate, suspend or amend the Plan, subject to certain restrictions.
Item 5.
Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
II-3
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law authorizes indemnification of directors and officers of a Delaware corporation under certain circumstances against expenses, judgments and the like in connection with an action, suit or proceeding. Article Fourteenth of the Restated
Certificate of Incorporation of Wells Fargo provides for broad indemnification of directors and officers. Wells Fargo also maintains insurance coverage relating to certain liabilities of directors and officers.
Item 7.
Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however,
that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
II-4
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference
in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
II-5
