Introduction These Merchandise Brand Standards have been created to establish and maintain a strong, consistent and distinctive brand image for Wells Fargo. Inside, you’ll find guidance, tips and rules to enable you to select and produce compelling branded merchandise. These Merchandise Brand Standards will explain and illustrate how to deliver a clear Wells Fargo branded message to our customers and team members through merchandise. In these standards, we explain the essential characteristics of a Wells Fargo brand image, and provide guidance on selection and the effective use of our logo, stagecoach icon, stagecoach photography, color, and typography. We also offer useful information for creating and ordering branded merchandise. The selection of appropriate branded merchandise brings our brand and our offerings to life for our customers and our team members. We need your help to make and keep our brand relevant to our customers and to ensure that we are differentiated in the marketplace. The principles illustrated in this document apply to all Wells Fargo lines of business. Merchandise Brand Standards © 2011 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. All rights reserved. Version 1.5 – 06/03/11. Internal use. 3 Logo usage for screen printing The Wells Fargo logo can be screen printed in both 2-color and 1-color on a range of promotional items including golf balls, t-shirts, and coffee flasks. While the preferred use of the Wells Fargo logo is 2-color Wells Fargo Red and Wells Fargo Yellow, the color of the logo will depend on a number of factors including: The Wells Fargo Red and Wells Fargo Yellow 2-color logo is the preferred logo and should be used on the vast majority of applications. White background •• Cost •• Material (plastic, cotton, etc.) •• Complexity of application (for color registration) •• Color of material •• Size Always apply the logo in one of the approved logo colors and maintain the quality and resolution of the logo regardless of the production method. Black background The Wells Fargo 2-color black and white logo can be used when a color logo will not provide sufficient contrast from the intended background. Please note: White ink is considered a color for silk screen applications. Product/background colors should be selected from the Wells Fargo primary and secondary color palettes. Red background Yellow background The Wells Fargo 1-color outline logo can only be used when it is not possible to use the 2-color Wells Fargo Red and Wells Fargo Yellow logo or 2-color black and white logo due to the material or complexity of the application. Khaki or green background Merchandise Brand Standards © 2011 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. All rights reserved. Version 1.5 – 06/03/11. Internal use. 4 Logo screen printing examples The selection and quality of promotional items must reflect the integrity and spirit of the Wells Fargo Core Brand Standards. The Wells Fargo logo and stagecoach icon are like a nation's flag. They should be treated with the utmost respect. Please do not place the Wells Fargo logo or stagecoach icon on any food items, such as candy or cake, or items that you step on, or use for cleaning.

Internal use. 5 Logo usage for embroidery The Wells Fargo logo can be embroidered on a range of promotional items including caps, polo shirts, and blankets. The preferred use of the Wells Fargo logo for embroidery is the Wells Fargo Red and Wells Fargo Yellow 2-color logo. In addition to the standard logo colors, Wells Fargo allows for the use of subtle 2-color tone-on-tone embroidery of the logo on high-end applications including polo shirts and blankets. However, please keep in mind, that the non-standard colors used in the tone-ontone applications must not be used in printing. Always maintain the quality and resolution of the logo regardless of the production method. Merchandise Brand Standards © 2011 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. All rights reserved. Version 1.5 – 06/03/11. Internal use. 6 Embroidered logo on polo shirts In addition to the standard logo colors, Wells Fargo allows for the use of subtle tone-on-tone embroidery of the logo on high end applications including polo shirts. Wearable items can also be produced in current fashion and seasonable colors when available. White tone-on-tone logo on white shirt. Merchandise Brand Standards © 2011 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

Black tone-on-tone logo on black shirt. 7 Full color stagecoach icon The stagecoach icon is a symbol of our commitment to be there for our customers now and over time. Full-color stagecoach icon with corporate signature By locking up our corporate signature to our stagecoach icon, we create a unique and proprietary identifier. The color version of the stagecoach icon is the preferred expression. However, we only use the color version of the stagecoach icon when we can be assured that it will be reproduced as a high quality reproduction. The color stagecoach can be printed on a range of promotional items including bookmarks, keytags, magnets, mugs, and more. Mug Plastic tote Keytag Magnet All product colors are subject to seasonal and trend availability. Merchandise Brand Standards © 2011 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. All rights reserved. Version 1.5 – 06/03/11. Internal use. 8 Cropping the stagecoach The preferred use of the stagecoach icon is to present it in its entirety with signature lock-up. However, there are limited situations in signage and for promotional purposes where we can selectively focus in on parts of the stagecoach icon. Please note: cropping the stagecoach icon requires written brand approval from the Wells Fargo brand team. Cropping the stagecoach icon is allowed when space and material limitations do not allow for a full imprint. Full format application For review and approval of materials using a cropped version of the stagecoach icon email [email protected].

Please note: The corporate signature and logo should not be placed on top of the painting. John Rush stagecoach painting Mug Merchandise Brand Standards © 2011 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

The stagecoach icon, in addition to the logo, is used consistently and extensively across all of our communications. As a reminder, the stagecoach icon is always locked up to the corporate signature. Stagecoach photography is reserved for situations where we are making a strong brand statement rather than marketing a product or service offering. We maximize the impact of stagecoach photography by limiting its use. Mouse Pad Using stagecoach photography To help guide the use of stagecoach photography, we now have a smaller, more select library of images from which you may choose. Only the stagecoach images on Brand Central are approved for use. Refer to our Core Brand Standards and Photography Brand Standards for greater detail and specifications about using stagecoach photography. Use these examples to guide your choice of images for the materials that you are creating. Never use the stagecoach icon and stagecoach photography together on the same product. Do not use your own stagecoach photos. Merchandise Brand Standards Bookmark © 2011 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. All rights reserved. Version 1.5 – 06/03/11.

These colors may be used in addition to the primary and secondary color palettes. When the Gold logo palette is used, the active palette takes on a supporting role—acting as an alert or highlighting color in a very limited way, and does not interfere with the integrity of the design.
