Summary of Terms | Hypothetical Payout Profile** | ||

** assumes a Call Premium equal to the lowest possible Call Premium that will be determined on the Pricing Date
If the securities are automatically called, the positive return on the securities will be limited to the Call Premium, and you will not participate in any appreciation of any Underlying Stock, which may be significant. If the securities are automatically called, you will no longer have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of any Underlying Stock at the Upside Participation Rate.
If the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity and the Ending Price of the Lowest Performing Underlying Stock on the Final Calculation Day is less than its Threshold Price, you will have full downside exposure to the decrease in the price of the Lowest Performing Underlying Stock on the Final Calculation Day from its Starting Price and will lose more than 50%, and possibly all, of the face amount of your securities at maturity.
The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Pricing Date, based on the Issuer’s internal pricing models, is expected to be at least $932.00 per security but less than the original offering price. The estimated value of the securities is not an indication of actual profit to the Issuer or to any of the Issuer’s affiliates, nor is it an indication of the price, if any, at which Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“Wells Fargo Securities”) or any other person may be willing to buy the securities from you at any time after issuance.
