Principal Protected Notes due ·
Linked to a Basket of Emerging Market Currencies
This offering summary represents a summary of the terms and conditions of the Principal Protected Notes Linked to a Basket of Emerging Market Currencies due · Offering 100% Principal Protection. We encourage you to read the preliminary pricing supplement and its accompanying prospectus to help you understand the Principal Protected Notes and this offering.
Key Characteristics of the Principal Protected Notes Linked to a Basket of Emerging Market Currencies due ·
The Principal Protected Notes are unsecured senior debt obligations of Wachovia Corporation, the return on which is linked to the performance of the basket.
Upside Participation
If the average currency appreciation is greater than zero, you will receive a cash payment equal to the principal amount of the note plus an amount equal to the basket performance amount. If the average currency appreciation is greater than zero and less than or equal to the minimum average currency appreciation, expected to be between 8% and 10% (to be determined on the pricing date), the basket performance amount will equal the product of the principal of the note and minimum average currency appreciation (the minimum supplemental payment amount).

The average currency appreciation will be determined by the calculation agent and will equal the arithmetic mean of the currency appreciation of each basket currency. The average currency appreciation will be determined on the valuation date and represents an average of the basket. It does not represent average performance over the term of the notes.
Principal Protection
The Principal Protected Notes are fully principal protected. If the average currency appreciation is less than or equal to zero, your payment at maturity will be equal to your principal amount.
No Periodic Interest Payments
The Principal Protected Notes do not bear periodic interest. You are not entitled to any periodic payment in respect of the performance of the basket.

Considerations for Investors
Who should consider an investment in the notes?
Investors who are willing to hold the notes to maturity; who seek an investment with a return linked to the basket currency exchange rates and who believe that the basket currency exchange rates, when averaged together, will decrease over the term of the notes (i.e., that over the term of the notes, when averaged together, fewer units of the basket currencies will be needed to buy a given amount of U.S. Dollars and the basket currencies will, when averaged together, appreciate in value against the U.S. Dollar); who are capable of understanding the specific risks related to the complexities of the notes and the underlying basket currencies; and who seek to protect their investment by receiving at least 100% of the principal amount of their investment at maturity.
5
Who should not consider an investment in the notes?
The notes are not designed for, and may not be a suitable investment for, investors who are unable or unwilling to hold the notes to maturity; who require an investment that yields regular returns; who believe that the basket currency exchange rates, when averaged together, are likely to increase or remain unchanged over the term of the notes (i.e., that over the term of the notes, when averaged together, more or the same number of units of the basket currencies will be needed to buy a given amount of U.S. Dollars and the basket currencies will, when averaged together, depreciate or remain unchanged in value against the U.S. Dollar); who are not capable of understanding the specific risks related to the complexities of the notes and the underlying basket currencies; or who exposure to both the full upside performance and the full downside performance risk of the basket currency exchange rates.
Risk Factors
Yield may be lower. The yield that you will receive on your notes, which could be zero, may be less than the return you could earn on other investments. Even if your yield is positive, your yield may be less than the yield you would earn if you bought a standard senior non-callable debt security of Wachovia with the same maturity date.
There may not be an active trading market. The notes will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or any electronic communications network. There can be no assurance that a liquid trading market will develop for the notes. The development of a trading market for the notes will depend on our financial performance and other factors such as the increase, if any, in the value of the basket. Even if a secondary market for the notes develops, it may not provide significant liquidity and we expect that transaction costs in any secondary market would be high. As a result, the difference between bid and asked prices for your notes in any secondary market could be substantial. If you sell your notes before maturity, you may have to do so at a discount from the initial public offering price, and, as a result, you may suffer substantial losses.
A sale prior to maturity may generate a loss. The market price of the notes at any given time may be affected by many factors, including, among other things, the performance of the basket, market views on Wachovia Corporations ability to pay its debt obligations, and current interest rates. If you do not hold your notes until maturity, the market price may be less than the maturity payment on the notes, and you may experience a loss.
Currency exchange risk. The basket currency exchange rates are a result of the supply of and demand for each currency, and changes in foreign exchange rates may result from the interactions of many factors including economic, financial, social and political conditions in the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India. These conditions include, for example, the overall growth and performance of the economies of the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India; the trade and current account balances between the United States on the one hand and Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India on the other; the financing and capital account balances between the United States on the one hand and Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India on the other; market interventions by the Federal Reserve Board or the respective governmental and banking authorities responsible for setting foreign exchange policies in Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India; inflation, interest rate levels, the performance of stock markets, and the stability of the governments and banking systems in the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India; wars that any of the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India are directly or indirectly involved in or wars that occur anywhere in the world; major natural disasters in the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Hungary, Indonesia and India; and other foreseeable and unforeseeable events.
Non-U.S. and emerging markets risks. Exchange rates of the currencies of most economically developed nations and of many other nations, including Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Indonesia and India, are floating, meaning they are permitted to fluctuate in value relative to the U.S. Dollar. However, governments of many nations, from time to time, do not allow their currencies to float freely in response to economic forces. (The Hungarian Forint exchange rate is not floating and will be described further below.) Governments, including the governments of Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Indonesia and India, use a variety of techniques, such as intervention by their central banks or imposition of regulatory controls or taxes, to affect the exchange rates of their respective currencies.
6
Governments may also issue a new currency to replace an existing currency or alter its exchange rate or relative exchange characteristics by devaluing or revaluing the currency. Thus, a special risk in purchasing the notes is that their liquidity, trading value
and amounts payable could be affected by the actions of the governments of Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, Indonesia and India that could change or interfere with currency valuations that are currently determined primarily by the markets, by fluctuations in response to other market forces, and the movement of currencies across borders. There will be no adjustment or change in the terms of the notes if exchange rates become fixed, if there is any devaluation or revaluation or imposition of exchange or other regulatory controls or taxes, if there is an issuance of a replacement currency, or if other developments affect any or all of the basket currencies, the U.S. Dollar, or any other currency.
The exchange rate of the Hungarian Forint is currently managed by the Hungarian government. In 2001, the Hungarian government and the National Bank of Hungary jointly determined to peg the Forint to the Euro so as to permit the exchange rate to fluctuate against the Euro in either direction by up to 15% from a central parity, which was set to HUF 276.1/Euro. In June 2003, the National Bank of Hungary shifted the central parity by 2.26%, which caused a depreciation in the forint of approximately 10%. Any such actions are unlikely to contribute significantly to either an increase or decrease in the value of the basket. However, further changes in the Hungarian governments management of the Forint could result in a significant movement in the U.S. Dollar/Hungarian Forint exchange rate. Assuming the values of all other basket currencies remain constant, a decrease in the value of the Forint, whether because of a change in the governments management of the currency or for other reasons, would result in a decrease in the value of the basket.
Potential conflicts of interest. Wachovia or its affiliates may presently or from time to time engage in trading activities related to the basket currencies and the U.S. Dollar that are not for the account of holders of the notes or on their behalf. These trading activities may represent a conflict between holders interest in the notes and the interests Wachovia and its affiliates will have in their proprietary accounts, in facilitating transactions for their customers and in accounts under their management. In addition, Wachovia or one or more of our affiliates has published and may in the future publish research on foreign exchange markets, exchange rates and other matters that may have an influence on currency exchange rates. This research may be modified from time to time without notice and may express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the notes. This research should not be viewed as a recommendation or endorsement of the notes in any way, and investors must make their own independent investigation of the merits of this investment. Furthermore, the inclusion of commissions and projected profits from hedging in the original issue price is likely to adversely affect secondary market prices.
7
Certain Tax Considerations
The notes will be treated as debt instruments subject to special rules governing contingent payment debt obligations for United States federal income tax purposes. If you are a U.S. individual or taxable entity, you generally will be required to pay taxes on ordinary income from the notes over their term based on the comparable yield for the notes, even though you will not receive any payments from us until maturity. This comparable yield is determined solely to calculate the amount on which you will be taxed prior to maturity and is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of what the actual yield will be. In addition, any gain you may recognize on the sale or maturity of the notes will be taxed as ordinary interest income. If you are a secondary purchaser of the notes, the tax consequences to you may be different. All individuals who are considering an investment in the notes should read in its entirety the section entitled Supplemental Tax Considerations in the Preliminary Pricing Supplement.

Historical Closing Values of the Basket
The basket is not a recognized market index. The basket was created solely for purposes of the offering of the notes and will be calculated solely during the term of the notes. The historical closing values of the basket, as calculated solely for the purposes of the offering of the notes, fluctuated in the past and may, in the future, experience significant fluctuations. Any historical upward or downward trend in the closing values of the basket during any period shown below is not an indication that the annual percentage change in the value of the basket is more likely to be positive or negative during the term of the notes. The historical values do not give an indication of future values of the basket. We cannot make any assurance that the future values of the basket, or the future values of the basket currencies will result in holders of the notes receiving a maturity payment amount greater than the principal amount of their notes on the maturity date. We do not make any representation to you as to the performance of the basket or the basket currencies. We obtained the closing values of the basket currencies used to calculate the historical values of the basket from Bloomberg Financial Markets, without independent verification. The actual values of the basket currencies and the basket at or near the valuation date may bear little relation to the historical values shown below.
The following graph depicts the historical performance of the basket as it would have occurred from January 1, 2004 to June 06, 2007, as though the basket had been in existence since January 1, 2004 with a starting level of $10 and initial basket currency exchange rates for the basket currencies determined as of that date. An increase in the level of the basket corresponds to a decrease in the basket currency exchange rates, and a decrease in the level of the basket corresponds to an increase in the basket currency exchange rates. Any historical upward or downward trend in the level of the basket during any period shown below is not an indication that the level of the basket is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time during the term of the notes. The historical

values of the basket do not give any indication of the future performance of the basket and Wachovia cannot make any assurance regarding the future performance of the basket.
