        <footnote id="F1">Reflects share equivalent of units in the Wells Fargo ESOP Fund of 401(k) Plan as of February 28, 2013, as if investable cash equivalents held by Plan were fully invested in Wells Fargo &amp; Company common stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Each Restricted Share Right (&quot;RSRs&quot;) represents a contingent right to receive one share of Wells Fargo &amp; Company (the &quot;Company&quot;) common stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">These RSRs vest in three installments:  one-third on 3/15/2014, 3/15/2015, and 3/15/2016.  As a condition to receiving the grant, the reporting person agreed to hold, while employed by the Company and for at least one year after retirement, shares of Company common stock equal to at least 50% of the after-tax shares (assuming a 50% tax rate) acquired upon vesting.  These RSRs were granted to the reporting person as part of the reporting person's 2012 annual incentive compensation award.</footnote>
