                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
-------------------------

On November 2, 1998, the merger involving Norwest Corporation and Wells
Fargo & Company (the Merger) was completed. Norwest Corporation changed its name
to "Wells Fargo & Company" and Wells Fargo & Company (the former Wells Fargo)
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Norwest Corporation. Norwest Corporation as
it was before the Merger is referred to as the former Norwest. Wells Fargo &
Company together with its subsidiaries are referred to as the Company.

In connection with the Merger, the Company recorded approximately $600 million
of restructuring charges in the fourth quarter of 1998. The restructuring plans
are evaluated on a regular basis during the integration process. The charges
included a severance reserve of $250 million associated with the elimination
into 2000 of about 5% of the Company's positions. This reserve was determined
based on the Company's existing severance plans for involuntary terminations.
Approximately 2,400 employees, totaling approximately $160 million in severance
benefits, had entered the severance process through June 30, 2000. The charges
also included approximately $250 million related to dispositions of leased and
owned premises held for remarketing or sale, and $100 million of other costs
associated with exiting activities due to the Merger. Most of the reserves for
both premises and other costs were utilized as of June 30, 2000 and the
remaining balances were not material.

The Company regularly explores opportunities for acquisitions of financial
institutions and related businesses. Generally, management of the Company does
not make a public announcement about an acquisition opportunity until a
definitive agreement has been signed.

Transactions completed in the six months ended June 30, 2000 include:

4.  OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Company has identified four lines of business for the purposes of
management reporting: Community Banking, Wholesale Banking, Wells Fargo Home
Mortgage (formerly Norwest Mortgage) and Wells Fargo Financial (formerly Norwest
Financial). The results are determined based on the Company's management
accounting process, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to
each responsible operating segment. This process is dynamic and somewhat
subjective. Unlike financial accounting, there is no comprehensive,
authoritative guidance for management accounting equivalent to generally
accepted accounting principles. The management accounting process measures the
performance of the operating segments based on the management structure of the
Company and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other
financial institution. The Company's operating segments are defined by product
type and customer segments. Changes in management structure and/or the
allocation process may result in changes in allocations, transfers and
assignments. In that case, results for prior periods would be (and have been)
restated to allow comparability.

THE COMMUNITY BANKING GROUP offers a complete line of diversified financial
products and services to individual consumers and small businesses with
annual sales up to $10 million in which the owner is also the principal
financial decision maker. Community Banking also offers investment management
and other services to retail customers and high net worth individuals,
insurance and securities brokerage through affiliates and venture capital
financing. This includes WELLS FARGO FUNDS-SM-, a family of mutual funds, as
well as personal trust, employee benefit trust and agency assets. Loan
products include lines of credit, equipment and transportation (auto,
recreational vehicle, marine) loans as well as equity lines and loans. Other
credit products and financial services available to small businesses and
their owners include receivables and inventory financing, equipment leases,
real estate financing, Small Business Administration financing, cash
management, payroll services, retirement plans, medical savings accounts and
credit and debit card processing. Consumer and business deposit products
include checking accounts, savings deposits, market rate accounts, Individual
Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and time deposits.

Community Banking provides access to customers through a wide range of
channels, which encompass a network of traditional banking stores, banking
centers, in-store banking centers, business centers and ATMs. Additionally,
24-hour telephone service is provided by PHONEBANK-SM- centers and the National
Business Banking Center. Online banking includes the Wells Fargo Internet
Services Group and services such as BUSINESS GATEWAY-Registered Trademark-, a
personal computer banking service exclusively for the small business customer.

THE WHOLESALE BANKING GROUP serves businesses with annual sales in excess of
$10 million and maintains relationships with major corporations throughout the
United States. Wholesale Banking provides a complete line of commercial and
corporate banking services. These include traditional commercial loans and lines
of credit, letters of credit, asset-based lending, equipment leasing,
international trade facilities, foreign exchange services, treasury

                                       10

management, investment management and electronic products. Wholesale Banking
includes the majority ownership interest in the Wells Fargo HSBC Trade Bank,
which provides trade financing, letters of credit and collection services and
is sometimes supported by the Export-Import Bank of the United States (a
public agency of the United States offering export finance support for
American-made products). Wholesale Banking also supports the commercial real
estate market with products and services such as construction loans for
commercial and residential development, land acquisition and development
loans, secured and unsecured lines of credit, interim financing arrangements
for completed structures, rehabilitation loans, affordable housing loans and
letters of credit. Secondary market services are provided through the Capital
Markets Group. Its business includes senior loan financing, mezzanine
financing, financing for leveraged transactions, purchasing distressed real
estate loans and high yield debt, origination of permanent loans for
securitization, loan syndications, real estate brokerage services and
commercial real estate loan servicing.

WELLS FARGO HOME MORTGAGE'S (formerly Norwest Mortgage) activities include
the origination and purchase of residential mortgage loans for sale to various
investors as well as providing servicing of mortgage loans for others.

WELLS FARGO FINANCIAL (formerly Norwest Financial) includes consumer finance
and auto finance operations. Consumer finance operations make direct loans to
consumers and purchase sales finance contracts from retail merchants from
offices throughout the United States and Canada and in the Caribbean and Latin
America. Automobile finance operations specialize in purchasing sales finance
contracts directly from automobile dealers and making loans secured by
automobiles in the United States and Puerto Rico. Credit cards are issued to
consumer finance customers through two credit card banks. Wells Fargo Financial
also provides lease and other commercial financing and provides information
services to the consumer finance industry.

THE RECONCILIATION COLUMN includes goodwill and nonqualifying CDI, the net
impact of transfer pricing loan and deposit balances, the cost of external debt,
and any residual effects of unallocated systems and other support groups. It
also includes the impact of asset/liability strategies the Company has put in
place to manage interest rate sensitivity at the consolidated level.

</TABLE>

(1) Net interest income is the primary source of income for most of the
    operating segments. Net interest income is the difference between actual
    interest earned on assets (and interest paid on liabilities) owned by a
    group and a funding charge (and credit) based on the Company's cost of
    funds. Community Banking and Wholesale Banking are charged a cost to fund
    any assets (e.g., loans) and are paid a funding credit for any funds
    provided (e.g., deposits). The interest spread is the difference between the
    interest rate earned on an asset or paid on a liability and the Company's
    cost of funds rate. (Wells Fargo Home Mortgage's net interest income was
    composed of interest revenue of $207 million and $209 million for the second
    quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively, and $391 million and $474 million
    for the first half of 2000 and 1999, respectively, and interest expense of
    $187 million and $163 million for the second quarter of 2000 and 1999,
    respectively, and $349 million and $360 million for the first half of 2000
    and 1999, respectively.)
(2) Taxes vary by geographic concentration of revenue generation. Taxes as
    presented are also higher than the consolidated Company's effective tax rate
    as a result of taxable-equivalent adjustments that primarily relate to
    income on certain loans and securities that is exempt from federal and
    applicable state income taxes. The offsets for these adjustments are found
    in the reconciliation column.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement No. 133 (FAS 133), ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND
HEDGING ACTIVITIES. In July 1999, the FASB issued Statement No. 137, DEFERRAL
OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 133, which deferred the effective
date of FAS 133 to no later than January 1, 2001 for the Company's financial
statements. FAS 133 requires companies to record derivatives on the balance
sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair values of those derivatives would be
reported in earnings or other comprehensive income depending on the use of
the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The key
criterion for hedge accounting is that the hedging relationship must be
highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value of assets or
liabilities or cash flows from forecasted transactions. In June 2000, the
FASB issued Statement No. 138, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
AND CERTAIN HEDGING ACTIVITIES, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. The
Company does not expect to

                                       17

implement FAS 133 before January 1, 2001 and has not completed the complex
analysis required to determine the impact on the financial statements.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

This document and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC) have forward-looking statements. In addition, the
Company's senior management may make forward-looking statements orally to
analysts, investors, the media and others. Forward-looking statements might
include one or more of the following:

- Projections of revenues, income, earnings per share, capital expenditures,
  dividends, capital structure or other financial items;

- Descriptions of plans or objectives of management for future operations,
  products or services, including pending acquisition transactions;

- Forecasts of future economic performance; and

- Descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the
  foregoing.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not
relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words such as
"believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," or words of
similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would,"
"should," "could" or "may."

Forward-looking statements give the Company's expectations or predictions of
future conditions, events or results. They are not guarantees of future
performance. By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks
and uncertainties. There are a number of factors--many of which are beyond the
Company's control--that could cause actual conditions, events or results to
differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements.

Some of these factors are described below. Other factors, such as credit,
market, operational, liquidity, interest rate, and other risks, are described
elsewhere in this report. Factors relating to the regulation and supervision of
the Company are also described or incorporated in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K filed with the SEC. There are other factors besides those described or
incorporated in this report or in the Form 10-K that could cause actual
conditions, events or results to differ from those in the forward-looking
statements.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The
Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect
circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements
are made.

BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS.  The Company's business and earnings are
sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States and
abroad. These conditions

                                       18
<PAGE>

include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, monetary supply,
fluctuations in both debt and equity capital markets, and the strength of the
U.S. economy, in general, and the local economies in which the Company
conducts business. Should any of these conditions worsen in the United States
or abroad, the Company's business and earnings could be adversely affected.
For example, an economic downturn or higher interest rates could decrease the
demand for loans and other products and services offered by the Company
and/or increase the number of customers and counterparties who become
delinquent or who default on their loans or other obligations to the Company.
An increase in the number of delinquencies or defaults would result in a
higher level of charge-offs and a higher level of loan loss provision, which
could adversely affect the Company's earnings. Higher interest rates would
also increase the Company's cost to borrow funds and may increase the rate
paid on deposits, which could more than offset, in the net interest margin,
the increase in rates earned by the Company on new or floating rate loans or
short-term investments. See "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About
Market Risk" for more information on interest rate risk.

COMPETITION.  The Company operates in a highly competitive environment both
in terms of the products and services the Company offers and the geographic
markets in which the Company conducts business. The Company expects this
environment to become even more competitive in the future as a result of
legislative, regulatory and technological changes and the continued trend of
consolidation in the financial services industry. Technological advances, for
example, have lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for
non-depository institutions to offer products and services that traditionally
have been provided by banks, such as automatic transfer and automatic payment
systems. Also, investment banks and insurance companies are competing in an
increasing number of traditional banking businesses such as syndicated
lending and consumer banking. Many of the Company's competitors enjoy the
benefits of fewer regulatory constraints and lower cost structures.

The financial services industry is likely to become even more competitive as
technological advances enable more companies to provide financial services.
The Company expects that the consolidation of the financial services industry
will result in larger, better capitalized companies offering a wide array of
financial services and products. Furthermore, recent legislative changes (see
"Legislation" below) will increase competition in the financial services
industry.

FISCAL AND MONETARY POLICIES.  The Company's business and earnings are
affected significantly by the fiscal and monetary policies of the federal
government and its agencies. The Company is particularly affected by the
policies of the Federal Reserve Board, which regulates the supply of money and
credit in the United States. The Federal Reserve Board's policies directly and
indirectly influence the rate of interest that commercial banks pay on their
interest-bearing deposits and can also affect the value of financial instruments
held by the Company. Those policies also determine to a significant extent the
cost to the Company of funds for lending and investing. Changes in those
policies are beyond the Company's control and hard to predict. Federal Reserve
Board policies can also affect the Company's customers and counterparties,
potentially increasing the risk that such customers and counterparties may
become delinquent or default on their obligations to the Company.

                                       19
<PAGE>

DISINTERMEDIATION.  "Disintermediation" is the process of eliminating the
role of the mediator (or middleman) in completing a transaction. For the
financial services industry, this means eliminating or significantly reducing
the role of banks and other depository institutions in completing
transactions that have traditionally involved banks at one end or both ends
of the transaction. For example, technological advances now allow parties to
pay bills and transfer funds directly without the involvement of banks.
Important consequences of this disintermediation include the loss of customer
deposits (and the income generated from those deposits) and decreases in
transactions that generate fee income.

LEGISLATION.  The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the Act) permits affiliation among
banks, securities firms and insurance companies by creating a new type of
financial services company called a "financial holding company." Financial
holding companies may offer virtually any type of financial service,
including banking, securities underwriting, insurance (both agency and
underwriting) and merchant banking. Under the Act, securities firms and
insurance companies that elect to become a financial holding company may
acquire banks and other financial institutions. The Act significantly changes
the competitive environment in which the Company conducts business.

MERGER INVOLVING THE FORMER NORWEST AND THE FORMER WELLS FARGO.  One or more
factors relating to the Merger could adversely impact the Company's business
and earnings and in particular reduce the expected benefits of the Merger to
the Company. These factors include the following:

- expected cost savings and/or potential revenue enhancements from the
  Merger might not be fully realized or realized within the expected time
  frame;

- deposit attrition (run-off), customer loss and/or revenue loss following
  the Merger might be greater than expected; and

- costs or difficulties related to the integration of the businesses of the
  two companies might be greater than expected.

OTHER MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS.  The Company expands its business in part by
acquiring banks and other companies engaged in financial services. The Company
continues to explore opportunities to acquire banking institutions and other
companies. Discussions are continually being carried on related to such
acquisitions. Generally, management of the Company does not comment on such
discussions or possible acquisitions until a definitive agreement has been
signed. A number of factors related to past and future acquisitions could
adversely affect the Company's business and earnings, including those described
above for the Norwest/Wells Fargo merger. In addition, the Company's
acquisitions generally are subject to approval by federal and, in some cases,
state regulatory agencies. The failure to receive required regulatory approvals
within the time frame or on the conditions expected by management could also
adversely affect the Company's business and earnings.

OPERATING SEGMENT RESULTS
-------------------------

COMMUNITY BANKING'S net income increased to $772 million in the second quarter
of 2000 from $684 million in the second quarter of 1999, an increase of 13%.
Net income increased to $1,493 million for the first six months of 2000 from
$1,306 million for the first six months of 1999, an increase of 14%. The
increase in net income was due to increases in both net interest and
noninterest income. Net interest income increased to $1,708 million in the
second quarter of 2000 from $1,620 million in the second quarter of 1999. Net
interest income increased to $3,397 million for the first six months of 2000
from $3,180 million in the first six months of 1999. The increase in net
interest income was primarily due to the continued improvement in the funding
mix based on an increase in core deposits and loan balances. The provision for
loan losses increased by $2 million and $1 million for the second quarter and
first six months of 2000, respectively, reflecting similar charge-offs on a
larger portfolio. Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2000 increased
by $285 million over the same period in 1999. The increase in noninterest
income was primarily due to higher venture capital gains, service charges on
deposit accounts, and trust and investment fees partially offset with losses
realized on the sales of securities. Noninterest expense increased by $233
million in the second quarter of 2000 over the same period in 1999. A
significant portion of this increase was from operating expenses of
acquisitions acquired over the past twelve months.

WHOLESALE BANKING'S net income was $201 million in the second quarter of 2000,
compared with $186 million in the second quarter of 1999, an increase of 8%.
Net income was $453 million for the first six months of 2000, compared with
$408 million in the first six months of 1999, an increase of 11%. Net interest
income was $414 million in the second quarter of 2000 and $340 million in the
second quarter of 1999. Net interest income increased to $830 million for the
first six months of 2000 from $678 million in the first six months of 1999. The
increase in net interest income was due to higher average loan and investment
securities balances within asset-based lending, commercial banking and capital
markets. Average outstanding loan balances grew to $40 billion in the second
quarter of 2000 from $34 billion in the second quarter of 1999. Noninterest
income increased to $282 million and $588 million in the second quarter and
first six months of 2000, respectively, from $269 million and $576 million in
the same periods of 1999. The increase for both periods was primarily due to
income from service charges, fees and commissions, and foreign exchange gains,
partially offset by lower revenue from investment securities and lower income
from loan sales. Noninterest expense increased to $326 million in the second
quarter of 2000 and $633 million for the first six months of 2000 from $274
million and $542 million for the same periods in the prior year. The increase
for the first six months of 2000 was primarily due to higher personnel costs
due to increased sales and sales staff.

WELLS FARGO HOME MORTGAGE'S (FORMERLY NORWEST MORTGAGE) net income in the
second quarter of 2000 decreased to $62 million from $67 million in the second
quarter of 1999, a decrease of 7%. Net income decreased to $129 million for the
first six months of 2000 from $133 million in the first six months of 1999, a
decrease of 3%. The decrease for both periods was principally due to a decrease
in funding activity. The servicing portfolio increased to

                                       21
<PAGE>

$298 billion at June 30, 2000 from $266 billion at June 30, 1999. The
weighted average coupon on loans in the servicing portfolio was 7.42% at June
30, 2000 compared with 7.30% a year earlier. Total capitalized mortgage
servicing rights amounted to $4.8 billion, or 1.63%, of the servicing
portfolio at June 30, 2000 compared with $4.1 billion, or 1.53%, at June 30,
1999. Amortization of capitalized mortgage servicing rights was $116 million
and $239 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2000,
respectively, compared with $166 million and $460 million for the same
periods of 1999. The decrease in amortization for the second quarter of 2000
was predominantly due to rising interest rates and a decrease in assumed
prepayments. Sales of mortgages resulted in net losses of $17 million for the
second quarter of 2000 and net gains of $29 million for the first six months
of 2000. This compares with net gains of $40 million and $223 million for the
quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease for the second
quarter and first six months of 2000 was largely due to less favorable market
conditions and decreased loan sales. Fundings for the second quarter and
first six months of 2000 were $18 billion and $30 billion, respectively,
compared with $23 billion and $50 billion for the same periods of the prior
year. The decrease in the funding volume was experienced across all
origination channels. The percentage of fundings attributed to mortgage loan
refinancing was approximately 12% for the second quarter of 2000, compared
with 37% for the same period in 1999.

WELLS FARGO FINANCIAL'S (FORMERLY NORWEST FINANCIAL) net income increased to
$69 million in the second quarter of 2000 from $65 million for the same
period in 1999, an increase of 6%. Net income increased to $125 million for
the first six months of 2000 from $119 million for the same period in 1999,
an increase of 5%. Net interest income increased 6% in both the second
quarter and the first six months of 2000, as compared to the same period of
1999, substantially due to an increase in average loans.

EARNINGS PERFORMANCE

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $2,485 million in the
second quarter of 2000, compared with $2,328 million in the second quarter of
1999. The Company's net interest margin was 5.55% in the second quarter of
2000, compared with 5.69% in the second quarter of 1999. Net interest income
was $4,941 million in the first six months of 2000, compared with $4,608
million in the first six months of 1999. The Company's net interest margin
was 5.56% in the first six months of 2000, compared with 5.65% in the first
six months of 1999. The decrease in the margin from the second quarter of
1999 was primarily due to the impact of funding strong loan growth with
higher costing short-term borrowings largely offset by improved yields within
the investment securities portfolio from the restructuring that occurred
during the fourth quarter of 1999 and the first quarter of 2000.

Interest income was reduced by hedging expense of $10 million in the second
quarter of 2000, compared with hedging income of $61 million in the same
quarter of 1999. Interest expense included hedging expense of $8 million in
the second quarter of 2000, compared with hedging income of $28 million in
the same quarter of 1999.

Individual components of net interest income and the net interest margin are
presented in the rate/yield table on the following page.

Loans averaged $127.0 billion in the second quarter of 2000, compared with
$109.0 billion in the second quarter of 1999. For the first half of 2000, loans
averaged $124.1 billion, compared with $108.4 billion for the same period of
1999. The increase in average loans was primarily due to loan growth in the
commercial and other real estate mortgage portfolios, which increased by 17% and
21%, respectively, compared with the second quarter of 1999. In the second
quarter, the Company decided to reclassify approximately $1.6 billion of student
loans held for sale to the loan portfolio. The related impact of this
reclassification on the average balance in the consumer loan portfolio was
approximately $64 million and $32 million for the second quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2000, respectively.

Debt securities averaged $34.2 billion during the second quarter of 2000,
compared with $33.3 billion in the second quarter of 1999.

Average core deposits were $131.1 billion and $127.6 billion and funded 59%
and 64% of the Company's average total assets in the second quarter of 2000 and
1999, respectively. For the first six months of 2000 and 1999, average core
deposits were $129.3 billion and $127.8 billion, respectively, and funded 59%
and 64% of the Company's average total assets, respectively.

The increase in service charges on deposits was due to an overall increase
in deposits compared with June 30, 1999.

The increase in mutual fund fees for the second quarter of 2000 was due to
the overall growth in mutual fund assets. The Company managed mutual funds with
$62.3 billion of assets at June 30, 2000, compared with $55.0 billion at
June 30, 1999. The Company also managed or maintained personal trust, employee
benefit trust and agency assets of approximately $460 billion and $408 billion
at June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

The decrease in mortgage banking was due to a decrease in loan origination
fees along with net losses on sales of mortgages, predominantly offset by higher
net servicing revenue as a result of lower amortization of mortgage servicing
rights. The decrease in amortization was predominantly due to rising interest
rates, which decreased the prepayment speeds in the servicing portfolio.

The increase in net venture capital gains during the second quarter and
first half of 2000 was due to gains on various venture capital securities,
including a $560 million gain that was recognized during the first quarter on
the Company's investment in Siara Systems. Gains from venture capital securities
are generally dependent on the timing of holdings becoming publicly traded and
subsequent market conditions, causing venture capital gains to be unpredictable
in nature.

The net losses on securities available for sale during the first six months of
2000 were predominantly due to the restructuring of the portfolio during the
first quarter.

Net gains from dispositions of operations decreased in the second quarter
and first six months of 2000 compared with the same periods of 1999 due to
divestitures of stores in Arizona and Nevada during the second quarter of 1999.

(1) Represents amortization of core deposit intangible acquired after February
    1992 that is subtracted from stockholders' equity in computing regulatory
    capital for bank holding companies.

The increase in salaries and incentive compensation was due to an increase in
active full-time equivalent (FTE) staff. The Company's FTE staff was 94,388 at
June 30, 2000, compared with 90,410 at June 30, 1999.

INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate was 38% for the second quarter of
2000 and 1999. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2000 was 38%,
compared with 37% for the same period of 1999. The lower effective rate for the
first six months of 1999 was due to a reduction of state income tax and a higher
level of charitable donations of appreciated securities.

</TABLE>

The weighted average expected remaining maturity of the debt securities
portion of the securities available for sale portfolio was 7 years and 5 months
at June 30, 2000. Expected remaining maturities will differ from contractual
maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or
without penalties.

At June 30, 2000, mortgage-backed securities, including collateralized
mortgage obligations, were $23.3 billion, or 67.3% of the Company's securities
available for sale portfolio. As an indication of interest rate risk, the
Company has estimated the effect of a 200 basis point increase in interest rates
on the value of the mortgage-backed securities and the corresponding expected
remaining maturities. Based on that rate scenario, mortgage-backed securities
would decrease in fair value from $23.3 billion to $20.6 billion and the
expected remaining maturity of these securities would increase from 8 years to 8
years and 8 months.

The Company generally identifies loans to be evaluated for impairment under
FASB Statement No. 114, ACCOUNTING BY CREDITORS FOR IMPAIRMENT OF A LOAN, when
such loans are on nonaccrual or have been restructured. However, not all
nonaccrual loans are impaired. Generally, a loan is placed on nonaccrual status
upon becoming 90 days past due as to interest or principal (unless both
well-secured and in the process of collection), when the full timely collection
of interest or principal becomes uncertain or when a portion of the principal
balance has been charged off. Real estate 1-4 family loans (both first liens and
junior liens) are placed on nonaccrual status within 120 days of becoming past
due as to interest or principal, regardless of security. In contrast, under
FAS 114, loans are considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will
be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the
loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. For a loan that has been
restructured, the contractual terms of the loan agreement refer to the
contractual terms specified by the original loan agreement, rather than the
contractual terms specified by the restructuring agreement. Consequently, not
all impaired loans are necessarily placed on nonaccrual status. That is, loans
performing under restructured terms beyond a specified performance period are
classified as accruing but may still be deemed impaired under FAS 114.

For loans covered under FAS 114, the Company makes an assessment for
impairment when and while such loans are on nonaccrual, or when the loan has
been restructured. When a loan with unique risk characteristics has been
identified as being impaired, the Company will estimate the amount of impairment
using discounted cash flows, except when the sole (remaining) source of
repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the underlying
collateral. In such cases, the current fair value of the collateral, reduced by
costs to sell, will be used in place of discounted cash flows. Additionally,
some impaired loans with commitments of less than $1 million are aggregated for
the purpose of estimating impairment using historical loss factors as a means of
measurement.

If the measurement of the impaired loan results in a value that is less than
the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest, net deferred
loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), an impairment is
recognized by creating or adjusting an existing allocation of the allowance for
loan losses. FAS 114 does not change the timing of charge-offs of loans to
reflect the amount ultimately expected to be collected.

</TABLE>

(1) Includes $197 million, $196 million and $169 million of impaired loans with
    a related FAS 114 allowance of $69 million, $43 million and $54 million at
    June 30, 2000, December 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999, respectively.

The average recorded investment in impaired loans was $398 million and $369
million during the second quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively, and
$382 million and $373 million during the first six months of 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Total interest income recognized on impaired loans was $1 million
and $2 million during the second quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively, and
$3 million and $4 million during the first six months of 2000 and 1999,
respectively, a majority of which was recorded using the cash method.

The Company uses either the cash or cost recovery method to record cash
receipts on impaired loans that are on nonaccrual. Under the cash method,
contractual interest is credited to interest income when received. This method
is used when the ultimate collectibility of the total principal is not in doubt.
Under the cost recovery method, all payments received are applied to principal.
This method is used when the ultimate collectibility of the total principal is
in doubt. Loans on the cost recovery method may be changed to the cash method
when the application of the cash payments has reduced the principal balance to a
level where collection of the remaining recorded investment is no longer in
doubt.

The Company anticipates changes in the amount of nonaccrual loans that
result from increases in lending activity and reductions due to resolutions of
loans in the nonaccrual portfolio. The performance of any individual loan can be
affected by external factors, such as the interest rate environment or factors
particular to a borrower such as actions taken by a borrower's management. In
addition, from time to time, the Company may acquire loans from other financial
institutions that may be classified as nonaccrual based on the Company's
policies.

The Company considers the allowance for loan losses of $3,349 million
adequate to cover losses inherent in loans, loan commitments and standby and
other letters of credit at June 30, 2000. The Company's determination of the
level of the allowance for loan losses rests

                                       36

upon various judgments and assumptions, including general economic
conditions, loan portfolio composition, prior loan loss experience,
evaluation of credit risk related to certain individual borrowers and the
Company's ongoing examination process and that of its regulators.

GNMA pool buy outs are advances made to GNMA mortgage pools that are
guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration or by the Department of
Veterans Affairs (collectively, "the guarantors"). These advances are made to
buy out government agency-guaranteed delinquent loans, pursuant to the Company's
servicing agreements. The Company, on behalf of the guarantors, undertakes the
collection and foreclosure process. After the foreclosure process is complete,
the Company is reimbursed for substantially all costs incurred, including the
advances, by the guarantors.

Trading assets consist predominantly of securities, including corporate
debt, U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. government agency obligations. Interest
income from trading assets was $23 million and $19 million in the second quarter
of 2000 and 1999, respectively, and $45 million and $30 million in the first
half of 2000 and 1999, respectively. Noninterest income from trading assets was
$65 million and $27 million in the second quarter of 2000 and 1999,
respectively, and $113 million and $65 million in the first half of 2000 and
1999, respectively.

Amortization expense for certain identifiable intangible assets included in
other assets was $10 million and $11 million in the second quarter of 2000 and
1999, respectively.

A significant portion of the change in "other" was due to an increase in broker
receivables related to sales of investment securities near the end of the
second quarter of 2000.

(1) The leverage ratio consists of Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average
    total assets, excluding goodwill and certain other items. The minimum
    leverage ratio guideline is 3% for banking organizations that do not
    anticipate significant growth and that have well-diversified risk, excellent
    asset quality, high liquidity, good earnings, effective management and
    monitoring of market risk and, in general, are considered top-rated, strong
    banking organizations.

(1) The Company anticipates performance by substantially all of the
    counterparties for these or the underlying financial instruments.
(2) A majority of purchased option contracts were options on
    futures contracts, which are exchange traded and for which the exchange
    assumes counterparty risk.
(3) Credit risk amounts reflect the replacement cost for those contracts in a
    gain position in the event of nonperformance by counterparties.

The Company enters into a variety of financial contracts, which include
interest rate futures and forward contracts, interest rate floors and caps,
options and interest rate swap agreements. The contract or notional amount of a
derivative is used to determine, along with the other terms of the derivative,
the amounts to be exchanged between the counterparties. Because the contract or
notional amount does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties, it is not a
measure of loss exposure related to the use of derivatives nor of exposure to
liquidity risk.

                                       39

The Company is primarily an end-user of these instruments. The Company also
offers such contracts to its customers but offsets such contracts by
purchasing other financial contracts or uses the contracts for
asset/liability management. To a lesser extent, the Company takes positions
based on market expectations or to benefit from price differentials between
financial instruments and markets.

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by
counterparties to financial instruments. The Company controls the credit risk of
its financial contracts except for contracts for which credit risk is DE MINIMUS
through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. Credit risk related
to derivative financial instruments is considered and, if material, provided for
separately from the allowance for loan losses. As the Company generally enters
into transactions only with high quality counterparties, losses associated with
counterparty nonperformance on derivative financial instruments have been
immaterial.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company manages its liquidity and capital at both the parent and
subsidiary levels.

In addition to the immediately liquid resources of cash and due from banks
and federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements, asset
liquidity is provided by the Company's securities available for sale portfolio.

Liquidity for the Company is provided by interest income, deposit-raising
activities, potential disposition of readily marketable assets and through its
ability to raise funds in a variety of domestic and international money and
capital markets. The Company accesses the capital markets for long-term funding
through the issuance of registered debt and private placements.

In June 1999, the Parent filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC
under which the Company may issue up to $10 billion in debt and equity
securities, excluding common stock, except for common stock issuable upon the
exercise or conversion of debt and equity securities. That registration
statement, together with the $150 million issuance authority remaining on the
Company's registration statements filed in 1993 and 1995, permits the Company to
issue an aggregate of $10.15 billion in such debt and equity securities. Under
those registration statements, the Company had issued a total of $6.5 billion in
debt securities as of June 30, 2000. Proceeds from the issuance of the debt
securities listed above were, and with respect to any such securities issued in
the future are expected to be, used for general corporate purposes.

In April 1999, Wells Fargo Financial, Inc. (WFFI) (formerly Norwest
Financial, Inc.) filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC, under which
WFFI may issue up to $2 billion in senior or subordinated debt securities. As of
June 30, 2000, WFFI had issued a total of $1.4 billion in debt securities under
that registration statement. Also in 1999, a subsidiary of WFFI filed a shelf
registration statement with the Canadian provincial securities authorities for
the
                                       40
<PAGE>

issuance of up to $1 billion (Canadian) in debt securities, and had issued
$515 million (Canadian) in debt securities from that registration statement as
of June 30, 2000.

Effective April 18, 2000, WFFI filed another shelf registration statement
with the SEC, under which WFFI may issue up to $3 billion in senior debt
securities. As of June 30, 2000, $300 million in debt securities had been
issued. An additional $300 million was issued from this shelf registration
statement on July 14, 2000.

In June 2000, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. issued a total of $1.75 billion in
subordinated notes. These issuances were completed as private placements and are
not registered with the SEC.

The Company repurchases common shares in the open market under a systematic
plan to meet the common stock issuance requirements of the Company's benefit
plans and for other common stock issuance requirements, including
acquisitions accounted for as purchases. In February of 2000, the Board of
Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 81 million additional shares of
the Company's outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 2000, the total
remaining common stock purchase authority was approximately 75 million shares.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest
rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. The
primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk. The
majority of the Company's interest rate risk arises from the instruments,
positions and transactions entered into for purposes other than trading. They
include loans, securities available for sale, deposit liabilities, short-term
borrowings, long-term debt and derivative financial instruments used for
asset/liability management. Interest rate risk occurs when assets and
liabilities reprice at different times as market interest rates change. For
example, if fixed-rate assets are funded with floating-rate debt, the spread
between asset and liability rates will decline or turn negative if rates
increase. The Company refers to this type of risk as "term structure risk."
There is, however, another source of interest rate risk which results from
changing spreads between asset and liability rates. The Company calls this type
of risk "basis risk"; it is a significant source of interest rate risk for the
Company and is more difficult to quantify and manage than term structure risk.
Two primary components of basis risk for the Company are (1) the spread between
prime-based loans and market rate account (MRA) savings deposits and (2) the
rate paid on savings and interest-bearing checking accounts as compared to
LIBOR-based loans.

Interest rate risk is managed within an overall asset/liability framework
for the Company. The principal objectives of asset/liability management are to
manage the sensitivity of net interest spreads and net income to potential
changes in interest rates and to enhance profitability in ways that promise
sufficient reward for understood and controlled risk. Funding positions are kept
within predetermined limits designed to ensure that risk-taking is not excessive
and that liquidity is properly managed. The Company employs a sensitivity
analysis in the form of a net interest income simulation to help characterize
the market risk arising from changes in interest rates in the other-than-trading
portfolio.

The Company's net interest income simulation includes all other-than-trading
financial assets, financial liabilities, derivative financial instruments and
leases where the Company is the lessor. It captures the dynamic nature of the
balance sheet by anticipating probable balance sheet and off-balance sheet
strategies and volumes under different interest rate scenarios over the course
of a one-year period. This simulation measures both the term structure risk and
the basis risk in the Company's positions. The simulation also captures the
option characteristics of products, such as caps and floors on floating rate
loans, the right to prepay mortgage loans without penalty and the ability of
customers to withdraw deposits on demand. These options are modeled directly in
the simulation either through the use of option pricing models, in the case of
caps and floors on loans, or through statistical analysis of historical customer
behavior, in the case of mortgage loan prepayments or non-maturity deposits.

The simulation model is used to measure the impact on net income, relative
to a base case scenario, of interest rates increasing or decreasing 100 basis
points over the next 12 months. At June 30, 2000, the simulation showing the
largest drop in net income relative to the base case scenario over the next
twelve months is a 100 basis point increase in rates that is projected to result
in a decrease in net income of $59 million. In the simulation that was run at

                                       42
<PAGE>

December 31, 1999, the largest drop in net income relative to the base case
scenario over the next twelve months was a 100 basis point increase in rates
that was projected to result in a decrease in net income of $38 million.

The Company uses interest rate derivative financial instruments as
asset/liability management tools to hedge mismatches in interest rate exposures
indicated by the net interest income simulation described above. They are used
to reduce the Company's exposure to interest rate fluctuations and provide more
stable spreads between loan yields and the rates on their funding sources. For
example, the Company uses interest rate futures to shorten the rate maturity of
MRA savings deposits and better match the maturity of prime-based loans. The
Company also purchases interest rate floors to protect against the loss in
interest income on LIBOR-based loans during a declining interest rate
environment. Additionally, receive-fixed rate swaps are used to convert
floating-rate loans into fixed rates to better match the liabilities that fund
the loans. The Company also uses derivatives including floors, futures contracts
and options on futures contracts to hedge the Company's mortgage servicing
rights as well as forwards, futures and options on futures and forwards to hedge
the Company's 1-4 family real estate first mortgage loan commitments and
mortgage loans held for sale.

The Company considers the fair values and the potential near term losses to
future earnings related to its customer accommodation derivative financial
instruments to be immaterial.
