1,690,000 Market-Linked Notes Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due January 29, 2015
Market-Linked Notes generally offer investors exposure to a wide variety of assets and asset classes, including equities, commodities and currencies, and provide for the repayment of principal at maturity, subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc.  The return on these Market-Linked Notes, or the notes, is based on the closing value of the S&P 500® Index, which we refer to as the underlying index, as measured on (i) each underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date and (ii) only the valuation date, as described below. The notes are designed for investors who are willing to forgo market interest rates and the potential for participation in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date (as measured on only those two dates) if a fixing event (as described below) occurs in exchange for the repayment of principal at maturity, the opportunity to participate in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date (as measured on only those two dates) if a fixing event does not occur (subject to a maximum return of 40%) and a fixed total return of 4% if a fixing event occurs.  You should understand how the payment at maturity is calculated and how whether the closing value of the underlying index is greater than 140% of the initial index value on any day during the term of the notes will substantially affect your payment at maturity.  The notes are senior unsecured obligations of Citigroup Funding Inc., and any payments due on the notes, including the repayment of principal, are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Citigroup Inc., Citigroup Funding Inc.’s parent company, and are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc.

Investment Overview
Market-Linked Notes
The Market-Linked Notes Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due January 29, 2015 (the “notes”) can be used:
 
n
As an alternative to direct exposure to the underlying index in a moderately bullish scenario in which a fixing event has not occurred and the final index value is greater than the initial index value; however, by investing in the notes, you will not be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the stocks that constitute the underlying index, which, as of January 25, 2012, yield an average of 2.03% per year.  If the average dividend yield remained constant for the term of the notes, this would be equivalent to 6.09% (calculated on a simple interest basis) over the approximately 3-year term of the notes.  However, it is impossible to predict whether the dividend yield over the term of the notes will be higher, lower or the same as this average dividend yield or the average dividend yield during any other period.  You should carefully consider whether an investment that does not provide for dividends or periodic interest payments is appropriate for you;
 
n
To obtain 1-to-1 exposure to any increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date (as measured on only those two dates) in scenarios in which the closing value of the underlying index has not increased by more than 40% as compared to initial index value at any time during the term of the notes;
 
n
To receive a fixed total return of 4% (1.33% per annum on a simple interest basis) in scenarios in which the closing value of the underlying index has increased by more than 40% as compared to initial index value at any time during the term of the notes; and
 
n
To protect against any negative performance in the underlying index and receive the full principal amount of the notes at maturity, subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc.

Maturity:
Approximately 3 years
   
Payment at maturity:
For each note, the $10.00 principal amount, plus a note return amount equal to either:
(i) if a fixing event does not occur:
$10.00 × the greater of (x) the index return percentage and (y) 0%; or
(ii) if a fixing event occurs:
$0.40 (4% of the $10.00 principal amount per note)
   
Principal due at maturity:
Full principal amount due at maturity
   
Maximum payment at maturity:
▪    $14.00 if a fixing event does not occur; or
▪    $10.40 if a fixing event occurs.
   
Coupon:
None

Key Investment Rationale
 
Subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., at maturity you will receive for each note you hold a payment equal to the $10.00 principal amount per note plus an amount, which may be zero, that depends on (i) whether a fixing event occurs and (ii) if no fixing event has occurred, the final index value.
 
The notes are designed for investors who are willing to forgo market interest rates and the potential for participation in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date (as measured on only those two dates) if a fixing event occurs in exchange for the repayment of principal at maturity, the opportunity to participate in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date (as measured on only those two dates) if a fixing event does not occur (subject to a maximum return of 40%) and a fixed total return of 4% if a fixing event occurs.  You should understand how the payment at maturity is calculated and how whether the closing value of the underlying index is greater than 140% of the initial index value on any day during the term of the notes will substantially affect your payment at maturity.
 
Investors will not be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the stocks that constitute the underlying index, which, as of January 25, 2012, yield an average of 2.03% per year.  If the average dividend yield remained constant for the term of the notes, this would be equivalent to 6.09% (calculated on a simple interest basis) over the approximately 3-year term of the notes.  However, it is impossible to predict whether the dividend yield over the term of the notes will be higher, lower or the same as this average dividend yield or the average dividend yield during any other period.  You should carefully consider whether an investment that does not provide for dividends or periodic interest payments is appropriate for you.  The payment scenarios below do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the notes.
 
Payment Scenario 1
A fixing event does not occur, and the final index value is greater than the initial index value, but less than or equal to the upside threshold value of 1,856.48 (approximately 140% of the initial index value). The note return amount will be positive but less than or equal to $4.00 per note, and the investor will receive a payment at maturity greater than $10.00 but less than or equal to $14.00 per note, based on a 1-to-1 participation in any increase of the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date.
Payment Scenario 2
A fixing event does not occur, and the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value. The note return amount will be zero, and the investor will receive a payment at maturity of $10.00 per note.
Payment Scenario 3
A fixing event occurs.  The note return amount will be $0.40 per note, and the investor will receive a payment at maturity of $10.40 per note, regardless of any increase or decrease in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date.
 
Summary of Selected Key Risks (see page PS-14)
 
n
The return on the notes depends on the performance of the underlying index on every underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date, and on the valuation date specifically.
 
n
Historically, the closing value of the underlying index has been volatile.
 
n
The notes do not pay interest, and the yield on the notes may be lower than the yield on a standard debt security of comparable maturity.
 
n
The appreciation potential of the notes is limited by the maximum payment at maturity of $14.00 (140% of the principal amount) per note.
 
n
Your opportunity to receive a return linked to the underlying index may terminate on any day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date if a fixing event occurs, in which case you would receive a fixed total return of 4%.
 
n
If the closing value of the underlying index does not exceed the upside threshold value on any underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date, your return on the notes will depend only on the final index value.
 
n
Secondary market sales of the notes may result in a loss of principal.
 
n
The market value of the notes will be influenced by many unpredictable factors.
 
n
The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., Citigroup Funding Inc.’s parent company and the guarantor of any payments due on the notes, and any actual or anticipated change to its credit ratings or its credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the notes.
 
n
Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index or the stocks that constitute the underlying index, and you will not be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the stocks that constitute the underlying index.
 
n
Adjustments to the underlying index could adversely affect the value of the notes.
 
n
You will have no rights against the publisher of the underlying index or any issuer of any stock included in the underlying index.
 
n
The historical performance of the underlying index is not an indication of the future performance of the underlying index.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.
CUSIP:
 
17317U360
ISIN:
 
US17317U3602
United States federal income tax considerations:
 
The following summary is a general discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the notes.  It applies only to an initial investor who purchases the notes for their issue price and holds them as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
 
Each holder, by purchasing the notes, agrees to treat each note for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a debt instrument that is subject to U.S. Treasury regulations governing contingent payment debt instruments.  The remainder of this summary assumes this treatment.
 
We are required to determine a “comparable yield” for the notes.  The “comparable yield” is the yield at which we could issue a fixed-rate debt instrument with terms similar to those of the notes, including the level of subordination, term, timing of payments and general market conditions, but excluding any adjustments for the riskiness of the contingencies or the liquidity of the notes.  Solely for purposes of determining the amount of interest income that United States holders (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) will be required to accrue, we are also required to construct a “projected payment schedule” in respect of the notes representing a payment or a series of payments the amount and timing of which would produce a yield to maturity on the notes equal to the comparable yield.
 
The comparable yield is a rate of 3.422%, compounded semi-annually; the projected payment schedule with respect to a note consists of a single payment at maturity, equal to $11.07.  Assuming a semi-annual accrual period, the following table sets out the amount of original issue discount (“OID”) that will be deemed to accrue with respect to a note during each calendar year, based upon our determination of the comparable yield and the projected payment schedule:
 
Calendar Period
OID Deemed to Accrue During Calendar Period (Per $10 Note)
 
Total OID Deemed to Have Accrued From Issue Date (Per $10 Note) as of End of Calendar Period
Original Issue Date through December 31, 2012
$0.32
 
$0.32
January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013
$0.36
 
$0.67
January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014
$0.37
 
$1.04
January 1, 2015 through the Maturity Date
$0.03
 
$1.07
 
   
Neither the comparable yield nor the projected payment schedule constitutes a representation by us regarding the actual payment at maturity that will be made on a note.
 
For U.S. federal income tax purposes, a United States holder is required to use our determination of the comparable yield and projected payment schedule in determining interest accruals and adjustments in respect of the notes, unless the United States holder timely discloses and justifies the use of other estimates to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”).  Regardless of its accounting method for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a United States holder will be required to accrue OID on the notes into income at the comparable yield, adjusted upward or downward to reflect the difference, if any, between the actual and the projected payment at maturity on the notes (as described below).
 
In addition to interest accrued based upon the comparable yield as described above, at maturity a United States holder will be required to recognize interest income equal to the amount of any net positive adjustment (i.e., the excess of the actual payment at maturity over the projected payment at maturity) in respect of a note.  A net negative adjustment (i.e., the excess of the projected payment at maturity over the actual payment at maturity) in respect of a note for a taxable year:
 
·      will first reduce the amount of interest in respect of the note that the United States holder would otherwise be required to include in income in the taxable year; and
 
·      to the extent of any excess, will give rise to an ordinary loss, but only to the extent of all previous interest inclusions under the note.
 
A net negative adjustment is not subject to the limitation imposed on miscellaneous itemized deductions under Section 67 of the Code.

Upon a sale or exchange of a note prior to maturity, a United States holder generally will recognize taxable income or loss equal to the difference between the amount received from the sale or exchange and the United States holder’s adjusted basis in the note.  A United States holder’s adjusted basis in the note will equal the cost thereof, increased by the amount of interest income previously accrued by the holder in respect of the note.  United States holders generally must treat any income on the sale or exchange as interest income and any loss as ordinary loss to the extent of previous interest inclusions, and the balance as capital loss.  These losses are not subject to the limitation imposed on miscellaneous itemized deductions under Section 67 of the Code.  A United States holder who recognizes a loss above certain thresholds may be required to file a disclosure statement with the IRS.  United States holders should consult their tax advisers regarding this reporting obligation.
 
Special rules might apply if the payment at maturity of the notes becomes fixed.  Under these rules, a United States holder would be required to make adjustments to account for the difference between the fixed payment at maturity and the projected payment at maturity in a reasonable manner over the remaining term of the note.  A United States holder's adjusted basis in the note and the character of any gain or loss on the sale or exchange of the note would also be affected.  United States holders should consult their tax advisers concerning the application of these special rules.
 
A Non-United States holder (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding or income tax in respect of payments on or with respect to the notes if the Non-United States holder provides a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN. Special rules apply to Non-United States holders whose income and gain on their notes are effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business.
 
Both U.S. and non-U.S. persons considering an investment in the notes should read the discussion under “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement and consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes, including any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.

Use of proceeds and hedging:
 
The net proceeds we receive from the sale of the notes will be used for general corporate purposes and, in part, in connection with hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates.
 
On or prior to the pricing date, we, through our affiliates or others, hedged our anticipated exposure in connection with the notes by taking positions in swaps, options and/or futures contracts on the underlying index and/or on the stocks that constitute the underlying index, in the stocks that constitute the underlying index and/or in any other securities or instruments that we may wish to use in connection with such hedging. Such purchase activity could have increased the value of the underlying index, and, accordingly, potentially increased the initial index value and the upside threshold value and, therefore, the value above which the underlying index must close on the valuation date, and/or at or below which the underlying index must close on each day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date, before investors would participate on a 1-to-1 basis (subject to the maximum payment at maturity) in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus.
ERISA and IRA purchase considerations:
 
Employee benefit plans subject to ERISA, entities the assets of which are deemed to constitute the assets of such plans, governmental or other plans subject to laws substantially similar to ERISA and retirement accounts (including Keogh, SEP and SIMPLE plans, individual retirement accounts and individual retirement annuities) are permitted to purchase the notes as long as either (A) (1) no Citigroup Global Markets Inc. affiliate or employee or affiliate’s employee is a fiduciary to such plan or retirement account that has or exercises any discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of such plan or retirement account used to purchase the notes or renders investment advice with respect to those assets, and (2) such plan or retirement account is paying no more than adequate consideration for the notes or (B) its acquisition and holding of the notes is not prohibited by any such provisions or laws or is exempt from any such prohibition.
 
However, individual retirement accounts, individual retirement annuities and Keogh plans, as well as employee benefit plans that permit participants to direct the investment of their accounts, will not be permitted to purchase or hold the notes if the account, plan or annuity is for the benefit of an employee of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or Morgan Stanley Smith Barney or a family member and the employee receives any compensation (such as, for example, an addition to bonus) based on the purchase of notes by the account, plan or annuity.

Hypothetical Payments on the Notes
 
The following examples illustrate hypothetical payments at maturity on the notes depending on (i) whether a fixing event occurs and (ii) if a fixing event does not occur, the final index value. All of the hypothetical examples below are based on the following terms:
 
 
§
Initial index value: 1,326.06
 
§
Upside threshold value: 1,856.48 (140% of the initial index value)
 
§
Fixed note return amount if a fixing event occurs:
$0.40 (4% of the principal amount) per note
 
The hypothetical payments at maturity set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and do not reflect the actual returns applicable to a purchaser of the notes.  The numbers appearing in the following table and in the examples on the following page have been rounded for ease of analysis.  Investors will not be entitled to receive any dividends paid with respect to the stocks that constitute the underlying index, which, as of January 25, 2012, yield an average of 2.03% per year.  If the average dividend yield remained constant for the term of the notes, this would be equivalent to 6.09% (calculated on a simple interest basis) over the approximately 3-year term of the notes.  However, it is impossible to predict whether the dividend yield over the term of the notes will be higher, lower or the same as this average dividend yield or the average dividend yield during any other period.  You should carefully consider whether an investment that does not provide for dividends or periodic interest payments is appropriate for you.  The payment scenarios below do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the notes.

Example A: The closing value of the underlying index increases 5% from the initial index value of 1,326.06 to a final index value of 1,989.09.  The payment at maturity per note is calculated as follows:
 
A fixing event has occurred.
Payment at maturity
=
$10.00 + $0.40
 
=
$10.40
   
In this case, you will receive the fixed note return amount of $0.40 (4% of the principal amount) per note at maturity but will not participate in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date (as measured on only those two dates) because the closing value of the underlying index on one or more days during the term of the notes was greater than the upside threshold value.
 
The notes will have significantly underperformed an investment linked directly to the underlying index.

Example B: The closing value of the underlying index increases 40% from the initial index value of 1,326.06 to a final index value of 1,856.48.  The payment at maturity is calculated as follows:
 
(1) If a fixing event has occurred:
Payment at maturity
=
$10.00 + $0.40
 
=
$10.40
   
In this case, you will receive the fixed note return amount of $0.40 (4% of the principal amount) per note at maturity but will not participate in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date because the closing value of the underlying index on one or more days during the term of the notes was greater than the upside threshold value.
 
The notes will have significantly underperformed an investment linked directly to the underlying index and the return in Example B(2) below (where a fixing event has not occurred).
(2) If a fixing event has not occurred:
Payment at maturity
=
$10.00 + $10.00 × the greater of (i) the index return percentage and (ii) 0%
 
=
$10.00 + $10.00 × [(1,856.48 – 1,326.06) / 1,326.06]
 
=
$14.00
   
In this case, you will participate on a 1-to-1 basis in the increase in the closing value of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date because the closing value of the underlying index was never greater than the upside threshold value during the term of the notes.
 
The notes will have performed similarly to an investment linked directly to the underlying index.

 
Example C: The closing value of the underlying index decreases 20% from the initial index value of 1,326.06 to a final index value of 1,060.85.  The payment at maturity is calculated as follows:
 
(1) If a fixing event has occurred:
Payment at maturity
=
$10.00 + $0.40
 
=
$10.40
   
In this case, you will still receive the fixed note return amount of $0.40 (4% of the principal amount) per note at maturity even though the closing value of the underlying index has decreased from the pricing date to the valuation date because the closing value of the underlying index on one or more days during the term of the notes was greater than the upside threshold value.
 
The notes will have outperformed an investment linked directly to the underlying index.
(2) If a fixing event has not occurred:
Payment at maturity
=
$10.00
   
In this case, your note return amount will be zero, and you will receive the $10.00 principal amount at maturity, because the closing value of the underlying index was never greater than the upside threshold value during the term of the notes.
 
The notes will have outperformed an investment linked directly to the underlying index but will have underperformed the return in Example C(1) above (in which a fixing event has occurred).

Risk Factors
 
The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors for investors in the notes. For further discussion of these and other risks you should read the section entitled “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes” in the accompanying product supplement related to this offering and “Risk Factors” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your investment in the notes.
 
n
The return on the notes depends on the performance of the underlying index on every underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date, and on the valuation date specifically.  The payment at maturity is linked to the performance of the underlying index over the term of the notes and will depend on (i) whether a fixing event occurs and (ii) if a fixing event does not occur, the final index value. A fixing event will occur if the closing value of the underlying index on any underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date is greater than the upside threshold value of 140% of the initial index value.  If a fixing event has not occurred and the closing value of the underlying index increases from the pricing date to the valuation date (as measured on only those two dates), the return on your notes will be based on the index return percentage (subject to the maximum return on the notes of 40%). If a fixing event has occurred, the return on your notes will be fixed at a total 4% (equivalent to 1.33% per annum on a simple interest basis) over the approximately 3-year term of the notes.  You should understand how the payment at maturity is calculated and how whether the closing value of the underlying index is greater than 140% of the initial index value on any day during the term of the notes will substantially affect your payment at maturity.
 
n
Historically, the closing value of the underlying index has been volatile.  Historically, the closing value of the underlying index has been volatile. From January 3, 2007 to January 25, 2012, the closing value of the underlying index has been as low as 676.53 and as high as 1,565.15. The likelihood that a fixing event occurs, which would substantially affect your payment at maturity, depends in large part on the volatility of the underlying index.  See “Historical Information” below.
 
n
The notes do not pay interest, and the yield on the notes may be lower than the yield on a standard debt security of comparable maturity. The notes do not pay any periodic interest. As a result, if (i) a fixing event has not occurred and the closing value of the underlying index decreases or does not increase sufficiently from the pricing date to the valuation date, or (ii) a fixing event has occurred, resulting in a total fixed return of 4% over the 3-year term of the notes, the effective yield on the notes may be at a rate lower than that which would be payable on a conventional fixed-rate debt security of Citigroup Funding Inc. (guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.) of comparable maturity.
 
n
The appreciation potential of the notes is limited by the maximum payment at maturity of $14.00 (140% of the principal amount) per note.  Because a fixing event will occur if the closing value of the underlying index on any underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date is greater than 140% of the initial index value, your payment at maturity will never be greater than $14.00 per note.  Therefore, any increase in the final index value over the initial index value by more than 40% will not increase the return on the notes and will result in the occurrence of a fixing event.  If a fixing event occurs, your total return on the notes will be limited to 4%, resulting in a payment at maturity of $10.40 per note, and you will in no circumstance participate in any appreciation of the underlying index from the pricing date to the valuation date.
 
n
Your opportunity to receive a return linked to the underlying index may terminate on any day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date if a fixing event occurs, in which case you would receive a fixed total return of 4%.  If the closing value of the underlying index is greater than 140% of the initial index value on any underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date, then a fixing event will have occurred and you will receive a fixed payment at maturity of $10.40.  This means that the total return on your notes will be fixed at 4% (equivalent to 1.33% per annum on a simple interest basis) upon the occurrence of a fixing event, even if the final index value is greater than 104% of the initial index value.  In this case, you will have lost the potential to participate in the positive performance of the underlying index, and your note return amount and payment at maturity will no longer depend on the performance of the underlying index for the remainder of the term of the notes.
 
n
If the closing value of the underlying index does not exceed the upside threshold value on any underlying index business day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date, your return on the notes will depend only on the final index value.  If a fixing event does not occur, your return will depend on the closing value of the underlying index only on the valuation date, regardless of whether the closing value of the underlying index has been greater than the final closing value on any other underlying index business day during the term of the notes.  In this case, your return could be less than the fixed total return of 4% you would receive upon the occurrence of a fixing event, and could be zero.
 
n
Secondary market sales of the notes may result in a loss of principal. You will be entitled to receive at least the full principal amount of your notes, subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., only if you hold the notes to maturity. The market value of the notes may fluctuate, and if you sell your notes in the secondary market prior to maturity, you may receive less than your initial investment.
 
n
The market value of the notes will be influenced by many unpredictable factors. Several factors will influence the value of the notes in the secondary market and the price at which Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may be willing to purchase or sell the notes in the secondary market, including: the value and volatility (frequency and magnitude of changes in value or price) of the underlying index and the stocks that constitute the underlying index, the dividend yield of the stocks that constitute the underlying index, geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political and regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying index or equities markets generally and that may affect the closing value of the underlying index, interest and yield rates in the market, time remaining until the notes mature and any actual or anticipated changes in the credit ratings or credit spreads of Citigroup Inc.  The value of the

underlying index may be, and has recently been, extremely volatile, and we can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. See “Historical Information” below. You may receive less, and possibly significantly less, than the stated principal amount of the notes if you try to sell your notes prior to maturity.
 
n
The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., Citigroup Funding Inc.’s parent company and the guarantor of any payments due on the notes, and any actual or anticipated changes to its credit ratings or its credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the notes.  Investors are dependent on the ability of Citigroup Inc., Citigroup Funding Inc.’s parent company and the guarantor of any payments due on the notes, to pay all amounts due on the notes at maturity, and, therefore, investors are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc. and to changes in the market’s view of Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness. The notes are not guaranteed by any other entity. If Citigroup Inc. defaults on its obligations under the notes, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. Any decline, or anticipated decline, in Citigroup Inc.’s credit ratings or increase, or anticipated increase, in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking Citigroup Inc.’s credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the notes.
 
n
Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index or its component stocks. Investors in the notes will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to stocks that constitute the underlying index. As of January 25, 2012, the stocks that constitute the underlying index average a dividend yield of 2.03% per year.  If this average dividend yield were to remain constant for the term of the notes, then, assuming no reinvestment of dividends, you would be forgoing an aggregate yield of 6.09% (calculated on a simple interest basis) by investing in the notes instead of investing directly in the stocks that constitute the underlying index or in another investment linked to the underlying index that provides for a pass-through of dividends.  However, it is impossible to predict whether the dividend yield over the term of the notes will be higher, lower or the same as this average dividend yield or the average dividend yield during any other period.  You should carefully consider whether an investment that does not provide for dividends or periodic interest is appropriate for you.  The payment scenarios described in this pricing supplement do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the notes.
 
n
Adjustments to the underlying index could adversely affect the value of the notes. The publisher of the underlying index may add, delete or substitute the stocks constituting the underlying index or make other methodological changes that could change the value of the underlying index. The publisher of the underlying index may discontinue or suspend calculation or publication of the underlying index at any time. In these circumstances, the calculation agent will have the sole discretion to substitute a successor index that is comparable to the discontinued underlying index and is not precluded from considering indices that are calculated and published by the calculation agent or any of its affiliates.
 
n
You will have no rights against the publisher of the underlying index or any issuer of any stock included in the underlying index. You will have no rights against the publisher of the underlying index or any issuer of any stock included in the underlying index even though whether a fixing event occurs, and, if no fixing event has occurred, the amount you receive at maturity, will depend on the closing value of the underlying index and such value is based on the prices of the stocks included in the underlying index.  The index publisher and the issuers of the stocks included in the underlying index are not in any way involved in this offering and have no obligations relating to the notes or to the holders of the notes.
 
n
The historical performance of the underlying index is not an indication of the future performance of the underlying index. The historical performance of the underlying index, which is included in this pricing supplement, should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of the underlying index during the term of the notes. Changes in the price of the underlying index will affect the trading price of the notes, but it is impossible to predict whether the value of the underlying index will fall or rise.
 
n
The inclusion of underwriting fees and projected profit from hedging in the issue price is likely to adversely affect secondary market prices. Assuming no change in market conditions or any other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is willing to purchase the notes in secondary market transactions will likely be lower than the issue price, since the issue price includes, and secondary market prices are likely to exclude, underwriting fees paid with respect to the notes, as well as the cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. The cost of hedging includes the projected profit that our affiliates may realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in managing the hedging transactions. The secondary market prices for the notes are also likely to be reduced by the costs of unwinding the related hedging transactions. Our affiliates may realize a profit from the expected hedging activity even if investors do not receive a favorable investment return under the terms of the notes or in any secondary market transaction. In addition, any secondary market prices may differ from values determined by pricing models used by Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as a result of dealer discounts, mark-ups or other transaction costs. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Can You Tell Me More About the Effect of Citigroup Funding Inc.’s Hedging Activity?” in the accompanying product supplement.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange, and secondary trading may be limited. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the notes. Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may, but is not obligated, to make a market in the notes.  Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. Because we do not expect that other broker-dealers will participate significantly in the secondary market for the notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is willing to transact. If at any time Citigroup Global Markets Inc. were not to make a market in the notes, it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the notes. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your notes to maturity.

The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of the ours, will make determinations with respect to the notes. Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the calculation agent, is an affiliate of ours. As calculation agent, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. has determined the initial index value and will determine the final index value, the index return percentage, whether a fixing event occurs on any underlying index business day during the term of the notes, the note return amount and your payment at maturity. Determinations made by Citigroup Global Markets Inc. in its capacity as calculation agent, including with respect to the occurrence or non-occurrence of a market disruption event and the selection of a successor index or calculation of the closing value of the underlying index in the event of a market disruption event, or discontinuance of the underlying index, may adversely affect the payout to you at maturity.

Hedging and trading activity by the calculation agent and its affiliates could potentially affect the value of the notes. One or more of our affiliates have hedged our obligations under the notes and will carry out hedging activities related to the notes (and other instruments linked to the underlying index or the stocks that constitute the underlying index), including trading in stocks that constitute the underlying index, swaps, futures and/or options contracts on the underlying index as well as in other instruments related to the underlying index and/or the stocks that constitute the underlying index. Our affiliates also trade in the stocks that constitute the underlying index and other financial instruments related to the underlying index and the stocks that constitute the underlying index on a regular basis as part of their general broker-dealer, proprietary trading and other businesses. Any of these hedging or trading activities on or prior to the pricing date could have potentially increased the initial index value and the upside threshold value and, therefore, the value above which the underlying index must close on the valuation date, and/or at or below which the underlying index must close on each day from the pricing date to and including the valuation date, before investors would participate on a 1-to-1 basis (subject to the maximum payment at maturity) in any increase in the closing value of the underlying index. Additionally, such hedging or trading activities during the term of the notes, including on the valuation date, could adversely affect the value of the underlying index on the valuation date and, accordingly, the amount of cash an investor will receive at maturity.

Information about the S&P 500® Index
 
General. The S&P 500® Index, which is calculated, maintained and published by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”), consists of 500 component stocks selected to provide a performance benchmark for the U.S. equity markets. The calculation of the S&P 500® Index is based on the relative value of the float adjusted aggregate market capitalization of the 500 component companies as of a particular time as compared to the aggregate average market capitalization of the 500 similar companies during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943. For additional information about the S&P 500® Index, see the information set forth under “Annex A—Underlying Benchmarks—Description of the S&P® 500 Index” in the accompanying product supplement.

Additional Considerations
 
If no closing value of the underlying index is available on any date of determination, the calculation agent may determine the closing value of the underlying index on that day in accordance with the procedures set forth in the accompanying product supplement. In addition, if the underlying index is discontinued, the calculation agent may determine the closing value by reference to a successor index or, if no successor index is available, in accordance with the procedures last used to calculate the underlying index prior to any such discontinuance. You should refer to the section “Provisions Relating to the Underlying Benchmark—Discontinuance of an Underlying Index” and “—Alteration of Method of Calculation of an Underlying Index” in the accompanying product supplement for more information.
 
In case of default in payment at maturity of the notes, the notes will bear interest, payable upon demand of the beneficial owners of the notes in accordance with the terms of the notes, from and after the maturity date through the date when payment of the unpaid amount has been made or duly provided for, at the rate of 3.641% per annum on the unpaid amount due.
