Overview
The securities offered by this pricing supplement are unsecured senior debt securities issued by Citigroup Inc.  Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not pay interest and do not repay a fixed amount of principal at maturity.  Instead, the securities offer a payment at maturity that may be greater than, equal to or less than the stated principal amount, depending on the performance of the basket described below from its initial basket level to its final basket level.  The basket is composed of companies that are involved in the production, refining or transportation of North American oil and/or natural gas or are significant commercial users of North American oil and/or natural gas.
The securities offer leveraged exposure to a limited range of potential appreciation of the basket and a contingent buffer against a limited range of potential depreciation of the basket as described below.  In exchange, investors in the securities must be willing to forgo (i) any appreciation in excess of the maximum return at maturity specified below and (ii) any dividends that may be paid on the shares that compose the basket.  Investors in the securities must also be willing to accept full downside exposure to the basket, with no buffer, if the basket depreciates by more than 25%.  If the final basket level is less than the trigger basket level, you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1% by which the final basket level is less than the initial basket level.  There is no minimum payment at maturity.
In order to obtain the modified exposure to the basket that the securities provide, investors must be willing to accept (i) an investment that may have limited or no liquidity and (ii) the risk of not receiving any amount due under the securities if we default on our obligations.

Additional Information
 
General. The terms of the securities are set forth in the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus, as supplemented by this pricing supplement. The accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus contain important disclosures that are not repeated in this pricing supplement. For example, certain events may occur that could affect your payment at maturity or, in the case of a delisting of any of the basket components, could give us the right to call the securities prior to maturity. These events, including market disruption events and other events affecting the basket components, and their consequences are described in the accompanying product supplement in the sections “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to ETF Shares or Company Shares—Consequences of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement of a Valuation Date,” “—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” and “—Delisting of Company Shares,” and not in this pricing supplement. It is important that you read the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus together with this pricing supplement before deciding whether to invest in the securities. Certain terms used but not defined in this pricing supplement are defined in the accompanying product supplement.
 
Adjustment of the multiplier.  The multiplier for each basket component is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of any of the events described in the accompanying product supplement in the section “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to ETF Shares or Company Shares—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” with respect to that basket component.
 
Postponement of the valuation date.  If the valuation date is postponed for a reason that affects less than all of the basket components, the final basket level will be calculated based on (i) for each unaffected basket component, its closing price on the originally scheduled valuation date and (ii) for each affected basket component, its closing price on the valuation date as postponed.  See “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to ETF Shares or Company Shares—Consequences of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement of a Valuation Date” in the accompanying product supplement.
 
Hypothetical Examples
 
The diagram below illustrates your payment at maturity for a range of hypothetical percentage changes from the initial basket level to the final basket level.  The diagram below is based on a hypothetical maximum return at maturity of 41%, which is equivalent to a hypothetical maximum payment at maturity of $14.10 per security.
 
Investors in the securities will not receive any dividends on the shares that compose the basket. The diagram and examples below do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the securities. See “Summary Risk Factors—Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the basket components” below.

Your actual payment at maturity per security will depend on the actual maximum return at maturity, which will be determined on the pricing date, and the actual final basket level, which will in turn depend on the actual closing price of each basket component on the valuation date.  The examples below are intended to illustrate how your payment at maturity will depend on whether the final basket level is greater than or less than the initial basket level and by how much and are based on a hypothetical maximum return at maturity of 41%.  Hypothetical values in the examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.

 
Example 1—Upside Scenario A. The hypothetical final basket level is 105.00 (a 5% increase from the initial basket level), which is greater than the initial basket level.

Because the basket appreciated from its initial basket level to its hypothetical final basket level and the hypothetical total return at maturity per security based on the leveraged return amount would be less than the hypothetical maximum return at maturity of 41.00%, your payment at maturity in this scenario would be equal to the stated principal amount plus the leveraged return amount, or $10.75 per security.  In this scenario, the decline in the closing price of four of the ten basket components significantly offset the appreciation in the other six basket components.
 
Example 2—Upside Scenario B. The hypothetical final basket level is 150.00 (a 50% increase from the initial basket level), which is greater than the initial basket level.

Because the basket appreciated from its initial basket level to its hypothetical final basket level and the hypothetical total return at maturity per security based on the leveraged return amount would be greater than the hypothetical maximum return at maturity of 41.00%, your payment at maturity in this scenario would be limited to the maximum payment at maturity of $14.10 per security.  In this scenario, the securities would underperform a direct investment in the basket components.
 
Example 3—Par Scenario. The hypothetical final basket level is 80.00 (a 20% decrease from the initial basket level), which is less than the initial basket level but greater than the hypothetical trigger basket level.

Because the hypothetical final basket level did not depreciate from the initial basket level by more than 25%, your payment at maturity in this scenario would be equal to the $10 stated principal amount per security. In this scenario, the significant decline in the closing price of five of the ten basket components more than offset the appreciation in the other five basket components.

Because the basket depreciated from its initial basket level to its hypothetical final basket level by more than 25%, you would have 1-to-1 exposure to the negative performance of the basket, with no buffer, and would receive less than the stated principal amount at maturity.  In this scenario, each of the ten basket components experiences significant depreciation.
 
Summary Risk Factors
 
An investment in the securities is significantly riskier than an investment in conventional debt securities.  The securities are subject to all of the risks associated with an investment in our conventional debt securities, including the risk that we may default on our obligations under the securities, and are also subject to risks associated with the basket components.  Accordingly, the securities are suitable only for investors who are capable of understanding the complexities and risks of the securities.  You should consult your own financial, tax and legal advisers as to the risks of an investment in the securities and the suitability of the securities in light of your particular circumstances.
 
The following is a summary of certain key risk factors for investors in the securities.  You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of risks relating to an investment in the securities contained in the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” beginning on page EA-6 in the accompanying product supplement.  You should also carefully read the risk factors included in the documents incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which describe risks relating to our business more generally.
 
You may lose some or all of your investment.  Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not provide for the repayment of a fixed amount of principal at maturity.  Instead, your payment at maturity will depend on the performance of the basket.  If the final basket level is less than the trigger basket level, you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of the securities for every 1% by which the final basket level is less than the initial basket level.  There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities, and you may lose up to all of your investment.
 
The securities do not pay interest.  Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not pay interest or any other amounts prior to maturity.  You should not invest in the securities if you seek current income during the term of the securities.
 
Your potential return on the securities is limited.  Your potential total return on the securities at maturity is limited by the maximum return at maturity of 41% to 45%, which is equivalent to a maximum payment at maturity of $14.10 to $14.50 per security. The actual maximum return at maturity will be determined on the pricing date.  Because the leverage factor provides 150%

exposure to any positive performance of the basket, any increase in the final basket level over the initial basket level by more than approximately 27.33% to 30.00% will not increase your return on the securities and will progressively reduce the effective amount of leverage provided by the securities.  As a result of the maximum return at maturity, the return on an investment in the securities may be less than the return on a direct investment in the basket components.
 
Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the basket components. You will not have voting rights, rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the basket components. The payment scenarios described in this pricing supplement do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the securities.
 
The trigger feature of the securities exposes you to particular risks.  If the final basket level is less than the trigger basket level, the contingent buffer against a limited range of potential depreciation of the basket offered by the securities will not apply and you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of the securities for every 1% by which the final basket level is less than the initial basket level.  Unlike securities with a non-contingent buffer feature, the securities offer no protection at all if the final basket level is less than the trigger basket level.  As a result, you may lose your entire investment in the securities.
 
The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc.  If we default on our obligations under the securities, you may not receive any payments that become due under the securities.
 
The securities will not be listed on a securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.  The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities.
 
Citigroup Global Markets Inc. intends to make a secondary market in relation to the securities and to provide an indicative bid price on a daily basis. Any indicative bid prices provided by Citigroup Global Markets Inc. shall be determined in Citigroup Global Markets Inc.’s sole discretion, taking into account prevailing market conditions, and shall not be a representation by Citigroup Global Markets Inc. that any instrument can be purchased or sold at such prices (or at all).
 
Notwithstanding the above, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may suspend or terminate making a market and providing indicative bid prices without notice, at any time and for any reason. Consequently, there may be no market for the securities and investors should not assume that such a market will exist. Accordingly, an investor must be prepared to hold the securities until the maturity date. Where a market does exist, to the extent that an investor wants to sell the securities, the price may, or may not, be at a discount from the stated principal amount.
 
The fact that the securities are linked to a basket does not mean that the securities represent a diversified investment.  First, the basket components are all issued by companies that are involved in the production, refining or transportation of North American oil and/or natural gas or are significant commercial users of North American oil and/or natural gas.  Therefore, they will all be subject to certain common risks.  Second, the securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc.  No amount of diversification that may be represented by the basket components will offset the risk that we may default on our obligations under the terms of the securities.
 
The basket components may offset each other.  The performances of the basket components may not correlate with each other.  If one or more of the basket components appreciates, the other basket components may not appreciate as much or may even depreciate.  In such event, the appreciation of one or more of the basket components may be moderated, wholly offset or more than offset by lesser appreciation or by depreciation in the price of the other basket components.  Although the basket components will be subject to certain common risks, they operate in a variety of sectors and regions (including outside North America) and will be subject to risks that affect those different sectors and regions, as well as idiosyncratic risks particular to each issuer.
 
The basket components may be highly correlated in decline.  The performances of the basket components may become highly correlated during periods of declining prices.  This may occur because of events that have broad effects on markets generally, or on the sectors in which the basket components operate specifically.  All of the basket components are issued by companies that are involved in the production, refining or transportation of North American oil and/or natural gas or are significant commercial users of North American oil and/or natural gas.  If the basket components become correlated in decline, the depreciation of one basket component will not be offset by the performance of any other basket component and, in fact, each basket component will contribute to an overall decline in the level of the basket.
 
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 other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may be willing to purchase the securities in secondary market transactions will likely be lower than the issue price because the issue price includes, and secondary market prices are likely to exclude, underwriting fees and the cost of hedging our obligations under the securities. 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. Any secondary market price is also likely to be reduced by the costs of unwinding the related hedging transactions.  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.
 
Your payment at maturity depends on the closing prices of the basket components on a single day. Because your payment at maturity depends solely on the closing prices of the basket components on the valuation date, you are subject to the risk that the closing prices of the basket components on that day may be lower, and possibly significantly lower, than on one or more other dates

during the term of the securities. If you had invested directly in the basket components, or if the payment at maturity were based on an average of the closing prices of the basket components throughout the term of the securities, you might have achieved better returns.
 
The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors. The value of your securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on a number of factors, including the price and volatility of the basket components, the correlation among the basket components, dividend yields on the basket components, interest rates generally, the time remaining to maturity and our creditworthiness. You should understand that the value of your securities at any time prior to maturity may be significantly less than the stated principal amount.
 
Even if an issuer of a basket component pays a dividend that it identifies as special or extraordinary, no adjustment will be required under the securities for that dividend unless it meets the criteria specified in the accompanying product supplement.  In general, an adjustment will not be made under the terms of the securities for any cash dividend paid on a basket component unless the amount of the dividend per share of that basket component, together with any other dividends paid in the same quarter, exceeds the dividend paid per share of that basket component in the most recent quarter by an amount equal to at least 10% of the closing price of the shares of that basket component on the date of declaration of the dividend.  Any dividend will reduce the closing price of the shares of that basket component by the amount of the dividend per share of that basket component.  If the issuer of a basket component pays any dividend for which an adjustment is not made under the terms of the securities, holders of the securities will be adversely affected.  See “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to ETF Shares or Company Shares—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments—Certain Extraordinary Cash Dividends” in the accompanying product supplement.
 
Our offering of the securities is not a recommendation of the basket or the economic sectors in which the basket components operate.  The fact that we are offering the securities does not mean that we believe that investing in an instrument linked to the basket or those sectors is likely to achieve favorable returns.  In fact, as we are part of a global financial institution, our affiliates may have positions (including short positions) in the basket components or in instruments related to the basket components, and may publish research or express opinions, that in each case are inconsistent with an investment linked to the basket.  These and other activities of our affiliates may adversely affect the price of the basket components and may have a negative impact on your interests as a holder of the securities.
 
The prices of the basket components may be adversely affected by our or our affiliates’ hedging and other trading activities.  We expect to hedge our obligations under the securities through affiliated or unaffiliated counterparties, who may take positions directly in the basket components or in instruments related to the basket components.  Our affiliates also trade the basket components and other financial instruments related to the basket components on a regular basis (taking long or short positions or both), for their accounts, for other accounts under their management or to facilitate transactions on behalf of customers.  These activities could affect the prices of the basket components in a way that negatively affects the value of the securities.  They could also result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the securities declines.
 
We may have economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result of our affiliates’ business activities.  Our affiliates may currently or from time to time engage in business with the issuers of the basket components, including extending loans to, making equity investments in or providing advisory services to those issuers.  In the course of this business, our affiliates may acquire non-public information about those issuers, which we will not disclose to you.  Moreover, if any of our affiliates is or becomes a creditor of any of those issuers, they may exercise any remedies against that issuer that are available to them without regard to your interests.
 
An adjustment will not be made for all events that may have a dilutive effect on or otherwise adversely affect the prices of the basket components.  For example, we will not make any adjustment for ordinary dividends, extraordinary dividends that do not meet the criteria described above, partial tender offers or additional public offerings of the basket components.  Moreover, the adjustments we do make may not fully offset the dilutive or adverse effect of the particular event.  Investors in the securities may be adversely affected by such an event in a circumstance in which a direct holder of the basket components would not.
 
If any basket component is delisted, we may call the securities prior to maturity for an amount that may be less than the stated principal amount.  If we exercise this call right, you will receive the amount described under "Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to ETF Shares or Company Shares—Delisting of Company Shares" in the accompanying product supplement.  This amount may be less, and possibly significantly less, than the stated principal amount of the securities.
 
The securities may become linked to shares of an issuer other than the issuer of the original basket component upon the occurrence of a reorganization event or upon the delisting of a basket component. For example, if the issuer of a basket component enters into a merger agreement that provides for holders of its common stock to receive stock of another entity, the stock of such other entity will become the common stock represented by the basket component for all purposes of the securities upon consummation of the merger.  Additionally, if a basket component is delisted and we do not exercise our call right, the calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, select shares representing the common stock of another issuer to be a successor basket component.  See "Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to ETF Shares or Company Shares—Delisting of Company Shares" in the accompanying product supplement.

The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important determinations with respect to the securities. If certain events occur, such as market disruption events, corporate events with respect to the issuers of the basket components that may require a dilution adjustment or the delisting of a basket component, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as calculation agent, will be required to make certain judgments that could significantly affect your payment at maturity. In making these judgments, the calculation agent’s interests as an affiliate of ours could be adverse to your interests as a holder of the securities.
 
The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities are unclear. There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the securities, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”).  Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the securities as prepaid forward contracts.  If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment of the securities, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the securities might be materially and adversely affected.  As described below under “United States Federal Tax Considerations,” in 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments.  Any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including the character and timing of income or loss and the degree, if any, to which income realized by non-U.S. persons should be subject to withholding tax, possibly with retroactive effect.  You should read carefully the discussion under "United States Federal Tax Considerations" and “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” in the accompanying product supplement and “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in this pricing supplement.  You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities, as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
 
Hypothetical Historical Information About the Basket
 
Because the basket exists solely for purposes of these securities, historical information on the performance of the basket does not exist for dates prior to the date of this pricing supplement.  The graph below sets forth the hypothetical historical daily closing levels of the basket for the period from May 1, 2012 to April 10, 2013, assuming that the basket was created on May 1, 2012 with a closing level of 100 on that date and that each basket component has a multiplier equal to (100 × 10%) divided by the closing price of that basket component on May 1, 2012.  May 1, 2012 is the earliest date on which historical information for all ten of the basket components is available.  Any historical trend in the closing level of the basket during the period shown below is not an indication of the performance of the basket during the term of the securities.
 
 
 
The Basket Components
 
The information set forth below about the issuer of each basket component has been obtained from publicly available sources, without
independent verification. Each basket component is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Companies with securities registered under the Exchange Act are required to periodically file financial and other information specified by the SEC. Information filed by the issuer of each basket component with the SEC can be reviewed electronically through a website maintained by the SEC at http://www.sec.gov. Information filed with the SEC by each of these issuers can be located by reference to its SEC file number provided below. In addition, information regarding each of these issuers may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents.

United States Federal Tax Considerations
 
You should read carefully the discussion under "United States Federal Tax Considerations" and “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” in the accompanying product supplement and “Summary Risk Factors” in this pricing supplement.
 
In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, which is based on current market conditions, a security should be treated as a prepaid forward contract for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  By purchasing the securities, you agree (in the absence of an administrative determination or judicial ruling to the contrary) to this treatment.  There is uncertainty regarding this treatment, and the IRS or a court might not agree with it.

Assuming this treatment of the securities is respected and subject to the discussion in “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences should result under current law:

 
·
You should not recognize taxable income over the term of the securities prior to maturity, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange.
 
 
·
Upon a sale or exchange of the securities, or retirement of the securities at maturity, you should recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and your tax basis in the securities.  Such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain or loss if you held the securities for more than one year.
 
Subject to the discussion in the accompanying product supplement regarding Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, under current law, if you are a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) of the securities, you generally should not be subject to U.S. federal withholding or income tax in respect of amounts paid to you with respect to the securities provided that (i) income in respect of the securities is not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and (ii) you comply with the applicable certification requirements.
 
In 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments.  The notice focuses in particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment.  It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; whether short-term instruments should be subject to any such accrual regime; the relevance of factors such as the exchange-traded status of the instruments and the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose an interest charge.  While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities, including the character and timing of income or loss and the degree, if any, to which income realized by non-U.S. persons should be subject to withholding tax, possibly with retroactive effect.

You should read the section entitled "United States Federal Tax Considerations" in the accompanying product supplement.  The preceding discussion, when read in combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of owning and disposing of the securities.

You should consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of an investment in the securities and any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.
