Summary Terms
Issuer: Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.
Guarantor: Citigroup Inc.
Underlying indices: Russell 2000® Index (ticker symbol: “RTY”), S&P 500® Index (ticker symbol: “SPX”) and Nasdaq-100 Index® (ticker symbol: “NDX”)
Stated principal amount: $1,000 per security
Pricing date: November 16, 2022
Issue date: November 21, 2022
Final valuation date: November 17, 2025, subject to postponement if such date is not a scheduled trading day for any underlying index or if certain market disruption events occur with respect to any underlying index
Maturity date: Unless earlier automatically redeemed, November 20, 2025
Contingent coupon: On each quarterly contingent coupon payment date, unless previously automatically redeemed, the securities will pay a contingent coupon equal to 2.475% of the stated principal amount of the securities (9.90% per annum) if and only if a coupon barrier event has not occurred during the related observation period.  If a coupon barrier event occurs during an observation period, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related contingent coupon payment date.  A coupon barrier event will occur if the closing level of any underlying index is less than its coupon barrier level on any trading day for that underlying index during an observation period.
Payment at maturity1:

If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, for each $1,000 stated principal amount security you hold at maturity, you will receive cash in an amount determined as follows (in addition to the final contingent coupon payment, if any):

  If the final index level of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date is greater than or equal to its downside threshold level: 

$1,000

  If the final index level of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date is less than its downside threshold level:

$1,000 + ($1,000 × the index return of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date) 

If the final index level of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date is less than its downside threshold level, you will receive less, and possibly significantly less, than 60% of the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity.

Trading day: For any underlying index, a scheduled trading day for that underlying index on which a market disruption event has not occurred with respect to that underlying index.
Automatic early redemption: If, on any potential redemption date, the closing level of the worst performing underlying index on that potential redemption date is greater than or equal to its initial index level, each security you then hold will be automatically redeemed on the related contingent coupon payment date for an amount in cash equal to the early redemption payment.  If the securities are redeemed, no further payments will be made.

·You may lose a significant portion or all of your investment.

·The quarterly contingent coupon payment is contingent on the closing level of each underlying index on each trading day throughout the observation periods.

·The securities may be automatically called prior to maturity, limiting your opportunity to receive contingent coupon payments.

 

·The securities offer downside exposure to the worst performing underlying index, but no upside exposure to the underlying indices.
