2.4 Exceptions to Reporting

Independent Trustee Reporting Exceptions: If you are an Independent Trustee¹, you are exempt from initial and annual holdings reports described in Section 2.2 above and may be exempt from transaction reports based on limited access to information about portfolio management activities. In lieu of the initial holdings reports, you must certify upon receiving the Code (or any new copy of a revised Code pursuant to Section 1.3 above) that you acknowledge that you are an Access Person subject to the Code and are not required to submit an initial holdings report.

You are not required to submit quarterly transaction reports, unless you knew at the time of the transaction, or in the ordinary course of fulfilling your official duties as trustee should have known,²that, during the 15-day period immediately preceding or following the date of such transaction, the same security was purchased or sold by the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds (or any series thereof), or was being considered for purchase or sale by the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds (or any series thereof) or by an investment adviser or investment sub-adviser thereto.

A copy of the initial certification form is included as Appendix B. If you are unable to meet the filing exemption, you will be required to report as indicated in section 2.2 above for the designated period(s).

Access Persons of Funds Management: If you are an Access Person that is also an access person under the Funds Management Code of Ethics, you do not need to file duplicate reports specifically under this Code so long as you comply with the reporting requirements under the Funds Management Code of Ethics and the reports that you file under the Funds Management Code of Ethics include all holdings and transactions and other information otherwise required to be reported under this Code.

imply a duty of inquiry;

•

presume I should have deduced or extrapolated from the discussions or memoranda dealing with the Wells Fargo Advantage Fund’s investment strategies; or

•

impute knowledge from my awareness of a Wells Fargo Advantage Fund’s holdings, market considerations, or investment policies, objectives and restrictions.



January 2010		Code of Ethics

Wells Fargo Advantage Funds

include all holdings and transactions and other information otherwise required to be reported under this Code.

Other Reporting Exceptions: No Access Person is required to report any of the following types of transactions:

Purchases or sales of any of the following types of investments which are not considered Securities for purposes of this Code:

(However, you must report your initial pre-set schedule or allocation of an AIP that includes allocations to any Securities, including those made to any 401(k) plan (including to any Wells Fargo Advantage Funds). Additionally, if you make a purchase or sale that overrides or changes the pre-set schedule or allocation of the AIP, you must include that transaction in your quarterly transaction report if it is otherwise reportable.)

			NOTE: 401(k) plans offered through employers other than Wachovia/Wells Fargo & Co. are not required to be reported if no Wells Fargo Advantage Fund or other Security is offered as an investment in the plan.

2.5 Access Person Trade Procedures

As an Access Person you must comply with the following trading restrictions and prohibitions:

60 Day Holding Period for Wells Fargo Advantage Fund Shares

You are required to hold shares you purchase of a Wells Fargo Advantage Fund for 60 days. You are NOT required to comply with the 60 day Holding Period for the Ultra Short-Term Income Fund, the Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Fund, the Ultra Short Duration Bond Fund and the money market funds. This restriction applies without regard to tax lot considerations. You will need to hold the shares from the date of your most recent purchase for 60 days. If you need to sell Fund shares before the 60-day holding period has passed, you must obtain advance written approval from the CCO or designated Code officer in the Compliance Department (the “Code of Ethics Compliance Officer”). The 60-day holding period does not apply to transactions pursuant to Automatic Investment



January 2010		Code of Ethics

Wells Fargo Advantage Funds

Plans. This restriction does apply to an Independent Trustee’s trades of Wells Fargo Advantage Fund shares.

Restricted Investments

If you are an Access Person that is considered an “Investment Person” (see definitions), you may not purchase shares in an Initial Public Offering. You must get written approval from the CCO or the Compliance Officer before you sell shares that you acquired in an IPO prior to starting work for us. Transactions in Securities that are part of a Private Placement must be pre-cleared.

To pre-clear a Private Placement, all documentation for the Private Placement (including the amount/allocation of the investment) must be sent to the Compliance Department. The Documentation may be:

	a.		emailed, to coe@wellsfargo.com

	b.		faxed, to 617-247-5011, or

	c.		mailed, to Code of Ethics Compliance Officer Wells Fargo 401 South Tyron Street NC1218 Charlotte, NC 28202

Documentation will be reviewed by the Compliance Department. After receiving the request the Code of Ethics Compliance Officer will notify you (in writing) if your trade has been approved or denied. If a trade request for pre-clearance came from an email, the approval or denial will be reported back using the same method of the request.

Ban on Short Term Trading Profits

There is a ban on short-term trading profits for Investment Persons. Investment Persons are not permitted to buy and sell, or sell and buy the same security (or equivalent security) within 60 calendar days and make a profit; this will be considered short-term trading.

	•		This prohibition applies without regard to tax lot.

	•		Short sales are subject to the 60 day profit ban.

	•		If you make a profit on an involuntary call of an option that you wrote, those profits are excluded from this ban; however you cannot buy and sell options within 60 calendar days resulting in profits. Settlement/expiration date on the opening option transaction must be at least 60 days out.

	•		Sales or purchases made at the original purchase or sale price or at a loss are not prohibited during the 60 calendar day profit holding period.

You may be required to disgorge any profits you make from any sale before the 60-day period expires. In counting the 60 calendar days, multiple transactions in the same security (or equivalent security) will be counted in such a manner as to produce the shortest time period between transactions.

The ban on short-term trading profits does not apply to transactions that involve:



January 2010		Code of Ethics

Wells Fargo Advantage Funds

(i) same-day sales of securities acquired through the exercise of employee stock options or other Wells Fargo & Co. securities granted to you as compensation or through the delivery (constructive or otherwise) of previously owned employer stock to pay the exercise price and tax withholding;

(ii) commodities, futures (including currency futures), options on futures and options on currencies; or

(iii) purchases or sales that were done as part of an Automatic Investment Plan (“AIP”). However, any purchases or sales outside the pre-set schedule or allocation of the AIP, or other changes to the pre-set schedule or allocation of the AIP, within a 60-day period, are subject to the 60-day ban on short term profit.

The CCO or the Code of Ethics Compliance Officer may approve additional exceptions to the ban on short-term trading profits. Any additional exceptions require advance written approval.

2.6 Summary of What You Need to Report if You Are Required

As discussed earlier, if you are an Independent Trustee, you may not be required to submit a Quarterly Transactions Report. However, if you are an Access Person that is not an Independent Trustee or if you are an Independent Trustee that does have to submit a Quarterly Transactions Report for a quarter, the table below serves as a handy reference for you to know what types of transactions you need to report.
