By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Jan. 27 - Wells Fargo & Co. priced $3 million of 0% access securities due March 4, 2013 linked to the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the final index level is at least 80% of the initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus a contingent fixed payment of 5.5%.

If the final index level is below 80% of the initial level, investors will be exposed to losses beyond the 20% buffer but will also receive a downside payment of 5.5%. Therefore, if the index declines by more than 25.5%, investors may lose up to 74.5% of their principal.
