Contingent coupon: On each quarterly contingent coupon payment date, unless previously automatically redeemed, the securities will pay a contingent coupon equal to 2.2875% of the stated principal amount of the securities (9.15% 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 price of the underlying shares is less than the coupon barrier price on any trading day during an observation period.
Payment at maturity1:

If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, for each $10 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 share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price:

$10

  If the final share price is less than the downside threshold price:

$10 + ($10 × the share return)

If the final share price is less than the downside threshold price, you will receive less, and possibly significantly less, than 60% of the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity.

Risk Considerations

The risks set forth below are discussed in more detail in the “Summary Risk Factors” section in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. Please review those risk factors carefully prior to making an investment decision.

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

·You will not receive any contingent coupon payment for any quarterly observation period during which a coupon barrier event occurs.

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

·Higher contingent coupon rates are associated with greater risk.

·You may not be adequately compensated for assuming the downside risk of the underlying shares.

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

·The securities offer downside exposure to the underlying shares, but no upside exposure to the underlying shares.

·Any early redemption payment or payment at maturity will depend on the closing price of the underlying shares solely on the relevant dates, which makes the securities particularly sensitive to the volatility of the underlying shares.

·The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc.

·The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.

·The estimated value of the securities on the pricing date, based on Citigroup Global Markets Inc.’s proprietary pricing models and Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.’s internal funding rate, will be less than the issue price.

·The estimated value of the securities was determined for Citigroup Global Market Holdings Inc. by its affiliate using proprietary pricing models.

·The estimated value of the securities would be lower if it were calculated based on Citigroup Global Market Holdings Inc.’s secondary market rate.

·The estimated value of the securities is not an indication of the price, if any, at which Citigroup Global Market Inc. or any other person may be willing to buy the securities from you in the secondary market.

·The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors.

·Immediately following issuance, any secondary market bid price provided by CGMI, and the value that will be indicated on any brokerage account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates, will reflect a temporary upward adjustment.

·Our offering of the securities does not constitute a recommendation of the underlying shares

·Governmental regulatory actions, such as sanctions, could adversely affect your investment in the securities.

·The price of the underlying shares may be adversely affected by our or our affiliates’ hedging and other trading activities.

·The securities will not be adjusted for all events that could affect the price of the underlying shares

·If the underlying shares are delisted, we may call the securities prior to maturity for an amount that may be less than the stated principal amount.

·The securities may become linked to shares of an issuer other than the original underlying share issuer upon the occurrence of a reorganization event or upon the delisting of the underlying shares
