Because the redemption date is also a distribution date for the Normal WITS, the redemption price does not include the distribution payable on such date. This distribution will be paid separately in the customary manner on March 15, 2021, to the holders of record on Feb. 28, 2021.
All regulatory requirements relating to the redemption of the Series I Preferred Shares and the Normal WITS have been satisfied by Wells Fargo & Company. Payment of the redemption price for the Normal WITS will be sent to holders by U.S. Bank National Association, as Property Trustee of the Trust, on the redemption date.
