SUMMARY INFORMATION — Q&A

 

What Are the Notes?

 

The notes pay an amount at maturity that will depend on the amount by which the ending value, the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the third index business day before maturity, exceeds the starting value, the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the date of this pricing supplement, expressed as a percentage. If the ending value is less than or equal to the starting value, the payment you receive at maturity for each note you hold will equal $10, the amount of your original investment in the note. If the ending value is greater than the starting value, the payment you receive at maturity will be greater than the amount of your original investment in the notes. In such case, the appreciation on an investment in the notes will be 81% of the return on an investment directly linked to the S&P 100 Index because of the participation rate of 81%.

 

The notes mature on April 29, 2010 and do not provide for earlier redemption by you or by us. The notes are a series of unsecured senior debt securities issued by Citigroup Funding Inc. Any payments due on the notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Citigroup Inc. The notes will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of Citigroup Funding, and the guarantee of any payments due under the notes will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of Citigroup.

 

Each note represents a principal amount of $10. You may transfer the notes only in units of $10 and integral multiples of $10. You will not have the right to receive physical certificates evidencing your ownership except under limited circumstances. Instead, we will issue the notes in the form of a global certificate, which will be held by The Depository Trust Company or its nominee. Direct and indirect participants in DTC will record beneficial ownership of the notes by individual investors. Accountholders in the Euroclear or Clearstream Banking clearance systems may hold beneficial interests in the notes through the accounts those systems maintain with DTC. You should refer to the section “Description of the Notes — Book-Entry System” in this pricing supplement and the section “Description of Debt Securities — Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement” in the accompanying prospectus.

 

What Does “Principal Protected” Mean?

 

“Principal Protected” means that your principal investment in the notes is not at risk at the maturity of the notes in the event of a decline in the S&P 100 Index. Thus, you will not receive less than $10 per $10 principal amount of the notes if you hold the notes to maturity.

 

Will I Receive Interest or Dividend Payments on the Notes?

 

We will not make any periodic payments of interest on the notes or any other payments on the notes until maturity. In addition, you will not be entitled to receive dividend payments or other distributions, if any, made on the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index.

 

What Will I Receive at Maturity of the Notes?

 

The notes will mature on April 29, 2010. At maturity, you will receive for each note you hold an amount in cash equal to the sum of $10 and an index return amount, which may be positive or zero. The amount payable to you at maturity is dependent upon the ending value of the S&P 100 Index on the valuation date, provided, however, that the payment you receive at maturity will not be less than the amount of your original investment in the notes.

How Will the Index Return Amount Be Calculated?

 

The index return amount will be based on the amount by which the ending value exceeds the starting value, expressed as a percentage, and on the participation rate. The participation rate equals 81%. The index return amount will equal the product of (a) $10 and (b) the index return (defined below) and (c) the participation rate, provided that the index return amount will not be less than zero. The index return, which is presented in this pricing supplement as a percentage, will equal the following fraction:

 

Ending Value – Starting Value


Starting Value

 

The starting value is 584.31, the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the date of this pricing supplement.

 

The ending value will be the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the valuation date.

 

The valuation date will be the third index business day before the maturity date.

 

If no closing value of the S&P 100 Index is available on any index business day because of a market disruption event or otherwise, the value of the S&P 100 Index for that index business day, unless deferred by the calculation agent as described below, will be the arithmetic mean, as determined by the calculation agent, of the value of the S&P 100 Index obtained from as many dealers in equity securities (which may include Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or any of our other affiliates), but not exceeding three such dealers, as will make such value available to the calculation agent. The determination of the value of the S&P 100 Index by the calculation agent in the event of a market disruption event may be deferred by the calculation agent for up to five consecutive index business days on which a market disruption event is occurring, but not past the index business day prior to maturity.

 

For more specific information about the “index return amount,” the “index return,” the determination of an “index business day” and the effect of a market disruption event on the determination of the index return amount and the index return, please see “Description of the Notes — Index Return Amount” in this pricing supplement.

 

Where Can I Find Examples of Hypothetical Maturity Payments?

 

For tables setting forth hypothetical maturity payments, see “Description of the Notes — Maturity Payment — Hypothetical Examples” in this pricing supplement.

 

Who Publishes the S&P 100 Index and What Does It Measure?

 

Unless otherwise stated, all information on the S&P 100 Index provided in this pricing supplement is derived from Standard & Poor’s, which we refer to as S&P, or other publicly available sources. The S&P 100 Index, a subset of the S&P 500 Index, is published by S&P and is comprised of the stocks of 100 large U.S. companies with exchange-listed options. Constituents of the S&P 100 Index are selected for sector balance and, as of December 31, 2005, represent about 57% of the market capitalization of the S&P 500 Index. The stocks in the S&P 100 Index are generally among the largest and most established companies in the S&P 500 Index. The S&P 100 Index was launched with a base value of 50 as of January 2, 1976 and split 2-for-1 on November 24, 1997. Currently, S&P calculates the S&P 100 Index based on the fully float-adjusted market capitalization of each constituent stock.

Table of Contents

Please note that an investment in the notes does not entitle you to any ownership or other interest in the stocks of the companies included in the S&P 100 Index.

 

How has the S&P 100 Index Performed Historically?

 

We have provided a table showing the closing values of the S&P 100 Index on the last index business day of each month from January 2001 to June 2006 and a graph showing the values of the S&P 100 Index from January 1980 through June 2006. You can find the table and the graph in the section “Description of the S&P 100 Index — Historical Data on the S&P 100 Index” in this pricing supplement. We have provided this historical information to help you evaluate the behavior of the S&P 100 Index in recent years. However, past performance is not indicative of how the S&P 100 Index will perform in the future. You should also refer to the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes — The Historical Performance of the S&P 100 Index Is Not an Indication of the Future Performance of the S&P 100 Index” in this pricing supplement.

 

What Are the United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of Investing in the Notes?

 

Because the notes are contingent payment debt obligations of Citigroup Funding, U.S. Holders of a note will be required to include original issue discount (“OID”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes in gross income on a constant yield basis over the term of the note, which yield will be assumed to be 5.644% per year. This tax OID (computed at the assumed comparable yield) will be includible in a U.S. Holder’s gross income (as ordinary income) over the term of the notes, although holders will receive no payments on the notes prior to maturity. The assumed comparable yield is based on a rate at which Citigroup Funding would issue a similar debt obligation with no contingent payments. The amount of the tax OID is calculated based on an assumed amount payable at maturity. This assumed amount is neither a prediction nor guarantee of the actual yield of, or payment to be made in respect of, a note. If the amount we actually pay at maturity is, in fact, less than this assumed amount, then a U.S. Holder will have recognized taxable income in periods prior to maturity that exceeds that holder’s economic income from holding the note during such periods (with an offsetting ordinary loss). If a U.S. Holder disposes of the note prior to maturity, the U.S. Holder will be required to treat any gain recognized upon the disposition of the note as ordinary income (rather than capital gain). You should refer to “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations” in this pricing supplement for more information.

 

Will the Notes Be Listed on a Stock Exchange?

 

The notes have been approved for listing on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol “PCO,” subject to official notice of issuance. You should be aware that the listing of the notes on the American Stock Exchange will not necessarily ensure that a liquid trading market will be available for the notes.

 

Can You Tell Me More about Citigroup and Citigroup Funding?

 

Citigroup is a diversified global financial services holding company whose businesses provide a broad range of financial services to consumer and corporate customers. Citigroup Funding is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup whose business activities consist primarily of providing funds to Citigroup and its subsidiaries for general corporate purposes.

 

What Is the Role of Citigroup Funding’s and Citigroup’s Affiliate, Citigroup Global Markets Inc.?

 

Our affiliate, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., is the agent for the offering and sale of the notes and is expected to receive compensation for activities and services provided in connection with the offering. After the initial offering, Citigroup Global Markets and/or other of our broker-dealer affiliates intend to buy and sell

the notes to create a secondary market for holders of the notes, and may engage in other activities described in the section “Plan of Distribution” in this pricing supplement, the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. However, neither Citigroup Global Markets nor any of these affiliates will be obligated to engage in any market-making activities, or continue such activities once it has started them. Citigroup Global Markets will also act as calculation agent for the notes. Potential conflicts of interest may exist between Citigroup Global Markets and you as a holder of the notes.

 

Can You Tell Me More About the Effect of Citigroup Funding’s Hedging Activity?

 

We expect to hedge our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates. This hedging activity likely will involve trading in one or more of the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index or in other instruments, such as options, swaps or futures, based upon the S&P 100 Index or the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index. This hedging activity could affect the value of the S&P 100 Index and therefore the market value of the notes. The costs of maintaining or adjusting this hedging activity could also affect the price at which our affiliate Citigroup Global Markets may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market. Moreover, this hedging activity may result in us or our affiliates receiving a profit, even if the market value of the notes declines. You should refer to “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes — The Price at Which You Will Be Able to Sell Your Notes Prior to Maturity Will Depend on a Number of Factors and May Be Substantially Less Than the Amount You Originally Invest” in this pricing supplement, “Risk Factors — Citigroup Funding’s Hedging Activity Could Result in a Conflict of Interest” in the accompanying prospectus supplement and “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus.

 

Does ERISA Impose Any Limitations on Purchases of the Notes?

 

Employee benefit plans and other entities the assets of which are subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or substantially similar federal, state or local laws (“ERISA-Type Plans”) will not be permitted to purchase or hold the notes. Plans that are not ERISA-Type Plans, such as individual retirement accounts, individual retirement annuities or Keogh plans, will be permitted to purchase or hold the notes, provided that each such plan shall by its purchase be deemed to represent and warrant that none of Citigroup Global Markets, its affiliates or any employee thereof manages the plan or provides advice that serves as a primary basis for the plan’s decision to purchase, hold or dispose of the notes.

 

Are There Any Risks Associated with My Investment?

 

Yes, the notes are subject to a number of risks. Please refer to the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes” in this pricing supplement.

 

PS-5


Table of Contents

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE NOTES

 

Because the terms of the notes differ from those of conventional debt securities in that the maturity payment will be based on the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the valuation date, an investment in the notes entails significant risks not associated with similar investments in conventional debt securities, including, among other things, fluctuations in the value of the S&P 100 Index and other events that are difficult to predict and beyond our control.

 

The Appreciation of Your Investment Will Be Limited to the Participation Rate and May Be Zero

 

The amount of the maturity payment will depend on the ending value, the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the valuation date. If the ending value is greater than the starting value, your participation in the appreciation of the S&P 100 Index will be limited to the participation rate or 81% of the index return. In addition, if the ending value is equal to or less than the starting value, the payment you receive at maturity will be limited to the amount of your initial investment in the notes, even if the closing value of the S&P 100 Index is greater than the starting value at one or more times during the term of the notes or if the closing value of the S&P 100 Index at maturity exceeds the starting value. Because of the possibility of limited or zero appreciation of your initial investment, the notes may provide less opportunity for appreciation than an investment in a similar security that would permit you to participate fully in the appreciation of the S&P 100 Index or an investment in some or all of the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index.

 

No Principal Protection Unless You Hold the Notes to Maturity

 

You will be entitled to receive at least the full principal amount of your notes 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.

 

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 interest. If the total return on the notes is less than approximately 22.88%, (an increase of approximately 28.25% from the starting value of the S&P 100 Index), the yield on the notes will be less than that which would be payable on a conventional fixed-rate, non-callable debt security of Citigroup Funding of comparable maturity.

 

You Will Not Receive Any Periodic Payments on the Notes

 

You will not receive any periodic payments of interest or any other periodic payments on the notes. In addition, you will not be entitled to receive dividend payments or other distributions, if any, made on the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index.

 

The Historical Performance of the S&P 100 Index Is Not an Indication of the Future Performance of the S&P 100 Index

 

The historical performance of the S&P 100 Index, which is included in this pricing supplement, should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of the S&P 100 Index during the term of the notes. Changes in the value of the S&P 100 Index will affect the trading price of the notes, but it is impossible to predict whether the value of the S&P 100 Index will fall or rise.

 

PS-6


Table of Contents

Your Return on the Notes Will Not Reflect the Return You Would Realize if You Actually Owned the Stocks Underlying the S&P 100 Index

 

Your return on the notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index because S&P calculates the S&P 100 Index by reference to the prices of the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index without taking into consideration the value of any dividends paid on those stocks. As a result, the return on the notes may be less than the return you would realize if you actually owned the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index even if the ending value of the S&P 100 Index is greater than its starting value.

 

The Price at Which You Will Be Able to Sell Your Notes Prior to Maturity Will Depend on a Number of Factors and May be Substantially Less Than the Amount You Originally Invest

 

We believe that the value of your notes in the secondary market will be affected by the supply of and demand for the notes, the value of the S&P 100 Index and a number of other factors. Some of these factors are interrelated in complex ways. As a result, the effect of any one factor may be offset or magnified by the effect of another factor. The following paragraphs describe what we expect to be the impact on the market value of the notes of a change in a specific factor, assuming all other conditions remain constant.

 

Value of the S&P 100 Index.    We expect that the market value of the notes will depend substantially on the relationship between the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the date of this pricing supplement and the future value of the S&P 100 Index. However, changes in the value of the S&P 100 Index may not always be reflected, in full or in part, in the market value of the notes. If you choose to sell your notes when the value of the S&P 100 Index exceeds its starting value, you may receive substantially less than the amount that would be payable at maturity based on that value because of expectations that the value of the S&P 100 Index will continue to fluctuate between that time and the time when the ending value of the S&P 100 Index is determined. If you choose to sell your notes when the value of the S&P 100 Index is below the value of the index on the date of this pricing supplement, you may receive less than the amount you originally invested.

 

Trading prices of the underlying stocks of the S&P 100 Index will be influenced by both the complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors that can affect the capital markets generally and the equity trading markets on which the underlying stocks are traded, and by various circumstances that can influence the values of the underlying stocks in a specific market segment or of a particular underlying stock. Citigroup Funding’s hedging activities in the underlying stocks of the S&P 100 Index, the issuance of securities similar to the notes and other trading activities by Citigroup Funding, its affiliates and other market participants can also affect the price of the underlying stocks of the S&P 100 Index.

 

Volatility of the S&P 100 Index.    Volatility is the term used to describe the size and frequency of market fluctuations. If the expected volatility of the S&P 100 Index changes during the term of the notes, the market value of the notes may decrease.

 

Events Involving the Companies Comprising the S&P 100 Index.    General economic conditions and earnings results of the companies whose common stocks comprise the S&P 100 Index and real or anticipated changes in those conditions or results may affect the market value of the notes. In addition, if the dividend yields on those stocks increase, we expect that the market value of the notes may decrease because the S&P 100 Index does not incorporate the value of dividend payments. Conversely, if dividend yields on the stocks decrease, we expect that the market value of the notes may increase.

 

Interest Rates.    We expect that the market value of the notes will be affected by changes in U.S. interest rates. In general, if U.S. interest rates increase, the market value of the notes may decrease, and if U.S. interest rates decrease, the market value of the notes may increase.

 

PS-7


Table of Contents

Time Premium or Discount.    As a result of a “time premium or discount,” the notes may trade at a value above or below that which would be expected based on the level of interest rates and the value of the S&P 100 Index the longer the time remaining to maturity. A “time premium or discount” results from expectations concerning the value of the S&P 100 Index during the period prior to the maturity of the notes. However, as the time remaining to maturity decreases, this time premium or discount may diminish, increasing or decreasing the market value of the notes.

 

Hedging Activities.    Hedging activities related to the notes by one or more of our affiliates likely will involve trading in one or more of the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index or in the other instruments, such as options, swaps or futures, based upon the S&P 100 Index or the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index. This hedging activity could affect the value of the S&P 100 Index and therefore the market value of the notes. It is possible that we or our affiliates may profit from our hedging activity, even if the market value of the notes declines. Profit or loss from this hedging activity could affect the price at which our affiliate Citigroup Global Markets may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market.

 

Citigroup Funding and Citigroup’s Credit Ratings, Financial Condition and Results.    Actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings, financial condition or results or those of Citigroup may affect the market value of the notes. The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup, the guarantor of any payments due on the notes.

 

We want you to understand that the impact of one of the factors specified above, such as an increase in interest rates, may offset some or all of any change in the market value of the notes attributable to another factor, such as an increase in the value of the S&P 100 Index.

 

You May Not Be Able to Sell Your Notes if an Active Trading Market for the Notes Does Not Develop

 

There is currently no secondary market for the notes. Citigroup Global Markets currently intends, but is not obligated, to make a market in the notes. Even if a secondary market does develop, it may not be liquid and may not continue for the term of the notes. If the secondary market for the notes is limited, there may be few buyers should you choose to sell your notes prior to maturity.

 

The Market Value of the Notes May Be Affected by Purchases and Sales of the Stocks Underlying the S&P 100 Index or Derivative Instruments Related to the S&P 100 Index by Affiliates of Citigroup Funding

 

Citigroup Funding’s affiliates, including Citigroup Global Markets, may from time to time buy or sell the underlying stocks of the S&P 100 Index or derivative instruments relating to the S&P 100 Index for their own accounts in connection with their normal business practices. These transactions could affect the value of the underlying stocks of the S&P 100 Index and therefore the market value of the notes.

 

Citigroup Global Markets, an Affiliate of Citigroup Funding and Citigroup, is the Calculation Agent, Which Could Result in a Conflict of Interest

 

Citigroup Global Markets, which is acting as the calculation agent for the notes, is an affiliate of ours. As a result, Citigroup Global Markets’ duties as calculation agent, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments that the calculation agent must make in determining amounts due to you, may conflict with its interest as an affiliate of ours.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

 

The description in this pricing supplement of the particular terms of the notes supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith replaces, the description of the general terms and provisions of the debt securities set forth in the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus.

 

General

 

The Principal-Protected Equity Linked Notes Based Upon the S&P 100® Index (the “Notes”) pay an amount at maturity that will depend on the amount by which the Ending Value, the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the Valuation Date, exceeds the Starting Value, the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the date of this pricing supplement, expressed as a percentage. If the Ending Value is less than or equal to the Starting Value, the payment you receive at maturity for each Note you hold will equal $10, the amount of your original investment in the Note. If the Ending value is greater than the Starting Value, the payment you receive at maturity will be greater than the amount of your original investment in the Notes. In such case, the appreciation on an investment in the Notes will be 81% times the return on an investment directly linked to the S&P 100 Index because of the Participation Rate of 81%.

 

The Notes are a series of debt securities issued under the senior debt indenture described in the accompanying prospectus. Any payments due under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Citigroup. The aggregate principal amount of Notes issued will be $15,915,000 (1,591,500 Notes). The Notes will mature on April 29, 2010, will constitute part of the senior debt of Citigroup Funding and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of Citigroup Funding. The guarantee of any payments due under the Notes will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of Citigroup. The Notes will be issued only in fully registered form and in denominations of $10 per Note and integral multiples thereof.

 

Reference is made to the accompanying prospectus for a detailed summary of additional provisions of the Notes and of the senior debt indenture under which the Notes will be issued.

 

Interest

 

We will not make any periodic payments of interest or any other payments on the Notes until maturity. At maturity, in addition to your initial principal, you will receive an Index Return Amount as described below. You will not be entitled to receive dividend payments or other distributions, if any, made on the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index.

 

Payment at Maturity

 

The Notes will mature on April 29, 2010. At maturity, you will receive for each Note you hold, a payment equal to the sum of $10 and an Index Return Amount, which may be positive or zero. The amount payable to you at maturity is dependent upon the Ending Value of the S&P 100 Index on the Valuation Date, provided, however, that the payment you receive at maturity will not be less than the amount of your original investment in the Notes.

 

Index Return Amount

 

The Index Return Amount will be based on the amount by which the Ending Value exceeds the Starting Value, expressed as a percentage, and on the Participation Rate. The Index Return Amount will equal the product of (a) $10 and, (b) the Index Return and (c) the Participation Rate, provided that the Index Return Amount will not be less than zero.

 

PS-9


Table of Contents

The Participation Rate equals 81%.

 

The Index Return, which is presented in this pricing supplement as a percentage, will equal the following fraction:

 

Ending Value – Starting Value


Starting Value

 

The “Starting Value” is 584.31, the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the date of this pricing supplement.

 

The “Ending Value” will be the closing value of the S&P 100 Index on the Valuation Date.

 

The “Valuation Date” will be the third Index Business Day before the maturity date.

 

If no closing value of the S&P 100 Index is available on any Index Business Day because of a Market Disruption Event or otherwise, the value of the S&P 100 Index for that Index Business Day, unless deferred by the calculation agent as described below, will be the arithmetic mean, as determined by the calculation agent, of the value of the S&P 100 Index obtained from as many dealers in equity securities (which may include Citigroup Global Markets or any of our other affiliates), but not exceeding three such dealers, as will make such value available to the calculation agent. The determination of the value of the S&P 100 Index by the calculation agent in the event of a Market Disruption Event may be deferred by the calculation agent for up to five consecutive Index Business Days on which a Market Disruption Event is occurring, but not past the Index Business Day prior to maturity.

 

An “Index Business Day” means a day, as determined by the calculation agent, on which the S&P 100 Index or any successor index is calculated and published and on which securities comprising more than 80% of the value of the S&P 100 Index on such day are capable of being traded on their relevant exchanges or markets during the one-half hour before the determination of the closing value of the S&P 100 Index. All determinations made by the calculation agent will be at the sole discretion of the calculation agent and will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on us, Citigroup and the beneficial owners of the Notes, absent manifest error.

 

A “Market Disruption Event” means, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion, the occurrence or existence of any suspension of or limitation imposed on trading (by reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by any relevant exchange or market or otherwise) of, or the unavailability, through a recognized system of public dissemination of transaction information, for a period longer than two hours, or during the one-half hour period preceding the close of trading, on the applicable exchange or market, of accurate price, volume or related information in respect of (a) stocks which then comprise 20% or more of the value of the S&P 100 Index or any successor index, (b) any options or futures contracts, or any options on such futures contracts relating to the S&P 100 Index or any successor index, or (c) any options or futures contracts relating to stocks which then comprise 20% or more of the value of the S&P 100 Index or any successor index on any exchange or market if, in each case, in the determination of the calculation agent, any such suspension, limitation or unavailability is material. For the purpose of determining whether a Market Disruption Event exists at any time, if trading in a security included in the S&P 100 Index is materially suspended or materially limited at that time, then the relevant percentage contribution of that security to the value of the S&P 100 Index will be based on a comparison of the portion of the value of the S&P 100 Index attributable to that security relative to the overall value of the S&P 100 Index, in each case immediately before that suspension or limitation.

Maturity Payment — Hypothetical Examples

 

The examples of hypothetical maturity payments set forth below are intended to illustrate the effect of different Ending Values of the S&P 100 Index on the amount payable on the Notes at maturity. All of the hypothetical examples are based on the following assumptions:

 

•      Issue Price: $10.00 per Note

 

•      Participation Rate: 82.5%

•      Starting Value: 581.20

 

•      Term of the Notes: 3.75 years

 

As demonstrated by the examples below, if the Index Return is 0.00% or less, you will receive an amount at maturity equal to $10.00 per Note, the amount of your initial investment in the Notes. If the Index Return is greater than 0.00%, you will receive an amount at maturity that is greater than your initial investment in the Notes.

 

The following examples are for purposes of illustration only. The actual maturity payment will depend on the actual Index Return Amount which, in turn, will depend on the actual Starting Value (584.31), Ending Value and Participation Rate (81%).

Discontinuance of the S&P 100 Index

 

If S&P discontinues publication of the S&P 100 Index or if it or another entity publishes a successor or substitute index that the calculation agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to the S&P 100 Index, then the value of the S&P 100 Index will be determined by reference to the value of that index, which we refer to as a “successor index.”

 

Upon any selection by the calculation agent of a successor index, the calculation agent will cause notice to be furnished to us and the trustee, who will provide notice of the selection of the successor index to the registered holders of the Notes.

 

PS-11


Table of Contents

If S&P discontinues publication of the S&P 100 Index and a successor index is not selected by the calculation agent or is no longer published on the date of determination of the value of the S&P 100 Index, the value to be substituted for the S&P 100 Index for that date will be a value computed by the calculation agent for that date in accordance with the procedures last used to calculate the S&P 100 Index prior to any such discontinuance.

 

If S&P discontinues publication of the S&P 100 Index prior to the determination of the Index Return Amount and the calculation agent determines that no successor index is available at that time, then on each Index Business Day until the earlier to occur of (a) the determination of the Index Return Amount and (b) a determination by the calculation agent that a successor index is available, the calculation agent will determine the value that is to be used in determining the value of the S&P 100 Index as described in the preceding paragraph. The calculation agent will cause notice of daily closing values to be published not less often than once each month in The Wall Street Journal (or another newspaper of general circulation). Notwithstanding these alternative arrangements, discontinuance of the publication of the S&P 100 Index may adversely affect trading in the Notes.

 

If a successor index is selected or the calculation agent calculates a value as a substitute for the S&P 100 Index as described above, the successor index or value will be substituted for the S&P 100 Index for all purposes, including for purposes of determining whether an Index Business Day or Market Disruption Event occurs. Notwithstanding these alternative arrangements, discontinuance of the publication of the S&P 100 Index may adversely affect the value of the Notes.

 

All determinations made by the calculation agent will be at the sole discretion of the calculation agent and will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on us, Citigroup and the beneficial owners of the Notes, absent manifest error.

 

Alteration of Method of Calculation

 

If at any time the method of calculating the S&P 100 Index or any successor index is changed in any material respect, or if the S&P 100 Index or any successor index is in any other way modified so that the value of the S&P 100 Index or the successor index does not, in the opinion of the calculation agent, fairly represent the value of that index had the changes or modifications not been made, then, from and after that time, the calculation agent will, at the close of business in New York, New York, make those adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the calculation agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a calculation of a value of a stock index comparable to the S&P 100 Index or the successor index as if the changes or modifications had not been made, and calculate the value of the index with reference to the S&P 100 Index or the successor index. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the S&P 100 Index or any successor index is modified so that the value of the S&P 100 Index or the successor index is a fraction or a multiple of what it would have been if it had not been modified, then the calculation agent will adjust that index in order to arrive at a value of the index as if it had not been modified.

 

Redemption at the Option of the Holder; Defeasance

 

The Notes are not subject to redemption at the option of any holder prior to maturity and are not subject to the defeasance provisions described in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of Debt Securities — Defeasance.”

 

Events of Default and Acceleration

 

In case an Event of Default (as defined in the accompanying prospectus) with respect to any Note shall have occurred and be continuing, the amount declared due and payable upon any acceleration of the Notes will be determined by the calculation agent and will equal, for each Note, the payment at maturity, calculated as though

Table of Contents

the maturity of the Notes were the date of early repayment. See “—Payment at Maturity” above. If a bankruptcy proceeding is commenced in respect of Citigroup Funding or Citigroup, the beneficial owner of a Note will not be permitted to make a claim for unmatured interest and therefore, the claim of the beneficial owner of a Note against the entity that becomes subject to a bankruptcy proceeding will be capped at the payment at maturity, calculated as though the maturity date of the Notes were the date of the commencement of the proceeding.

 

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 6.04% per annum on the unpaid amount due.

 

Paying Agent and Trustee

 

Citibank, N.A. will serve as paying agent for the Notes and will also hold the global security representing the Notes as custodian for DTC. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as trustee under an indenture dated June 1, 2005, will serve as trustee for the Notes.

 

Calculation Agent

 

The calculation agent for the Notes will be Citigroup Global Markets. All determinations made by the calculation agent will be at the sole discretion of the calculation agent and will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on Citigroup Funding, Citigroup and the holders of the Notes. Because the calculation agent is an affiliate of Citigroup Funding and Citigroup, potential conflicts of interest may exist between the calculation agent and the holders of the Notes, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments that the calculation agent must make in determining amounts due to the holders of the Notes. Citigroup Global Markets is obligated to carry out its duties and functions as calculation agent in good faith and using its reasonable judgment.

DESCRIPTION OF THE S&P 100® INDEX

 

General

 

Unless otherwise stated, we have derived all information regarding the S&P 100 Index provided in this pricing supplement, including its composition, method of calculation and changes in components, from S&P, publicly available sources and other sources we believe to be reliable. Such information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, S&P. S&P is under no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue or suspend the publication of, the S&P 100 Index at any time. We do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any information relating to the S&P 100 Index.

 

The S&P 100 Index, a subset of the S&P 500 Index, is published by S&P and is comprised of the stocks of 100 large U.S. companies with exchange-listed options. Constituents of the S&P 100 Index are selected for sector balance and, as of December 31, 2005, represent about 57% of the market capitalization of the S&P 500 Index. The stocks in the S&P 100 Index are generally among the largest and most established companies in the S&P 500 Index. The S&P 100 Index was launched with a base value of 50 as of January 2, 1976 and split 2-for-1 on November 24, 1997. Currently, S&P calculates the S&P 100 Index based on the fully float-adjusted market capitalization of each constituent stock.

 

As of December 31, 2005, the 100 companies included in the S&P 100 Index were divided into 10 Global Industry Classification Sectors. The Global Industry Classification Sectors included (with the capitalization weightings of each sector indicated in parentheses): Consumer Discretionary (8.0%), Consumer Staples (12.2%), Energy (9.8%), Financials (20.1%), Health Care (12.3%), Industrials (14.3%), Information Technology (15.4%), Materials (2.3%), Telecommunication Services (4.0%) and Utilities (1.6%). The identity and capitalization weightings of the five largest companies represented in the S&P 100 Index as of December 31, 2005 were as follows: General Electric (5.98%), Exxon Mobil Corp. (5.65%), Citigroup Inc. (3.97%), Microsoft Corp. (3.87%), Procter & Gamble (3.13%). S&P may from time to time, in its sole discretion, add companies to, or delete companies from, the S&P 100 Index.

 

THE S&P 100 INDEX DOES NOT REFLECT THE PAYMENT OF DIVIDENDS ON THE STOCKS UNDERLYING IT AND THEREFORE THE RETURN ON THE NOTES WILL NOT PRODUCE THE SAME RETURN YOU WOULD RECEIVE IF YOU WERE TO PURCHASE SUCH UNDERLYING STOCKS AND HOLD THEM UNTIL THE MATURITY DATE.

 

Computation of the S&P 100 Index

 

To be eligible for inclusion in the S&P 100 Index, a stock must meet the following criteria:

 

(1) S&P 500 Index constituents: the stock must be included in the S&P 500 Index;

 

(2) Options: the stock must maintain exchange-listed options;

 

(3) Sector representation: the stock must meet S&P’s guidelines for sector representation. The sector composition of the S&P 100 Index has remained comparable to the sector composition of the S&P 500 Index; and

 

(4) Liquidity and price: the annual dollar value traded to market capitalization ratio should be 0.3 or greater, the standard level for addition to the S&P 500 Index. Greater liquidity, however, signals market importance and increases likelihood of selection of the S&P 100 Index.

 

S&P may remove a company from the S&P 100 Index if the company does not meet the inclusion qualifications or if the index becomes unbalanced in its sector representation. S&P may also remove any company that violates any of the S&P 500 Index criteria.

Table of Contents

Currently, S&P calculates the S&P 100 Index based on the fully float-adjusted market capitalization of each constituent stock. Under float adjustment, the share counts used in calculating the S&P 100 Index reflect only those shares that are available to investors and not all of a company’s outstanding shares. S&P defines three groups of shareholders whose holdings are subject to float adjustment:

 

    holdings by other publicly traded corporations, venture capital firms, private equity firms, strategic partners, or leveraged buyout groups;

 

    holdings by government entities, including all levels of government in the United States or foreign countries; and

 

    holdings by current or former officers and directors of the company, founders of the company, or family trusts of officers, directors, or founders, as well as holdings of trusts, foundations, pension funds, employee stock ownership plans, or other investment vehicles associated with and controlled by the company.

 

However, treasury stock, stock options, restricted shares, equity participation units, warrants, preferred stock, convertible stock, and rights are not part of the float. In cases where holdings in a group exceed 10% of the outstanding shares of a company, the holdings of that group will be excluded from the float-adjusted count of shares to be used in the S&P 100 Index calculation. Mutual funds, investment advisory firms, pension funds, or foundations not associated with the company and investment funds in insurance companies, shares of a United States company traded in Canada as “exchangeable shares,” shares that trust beneficiaries may buy or sell without difficulty or significant additional expense beyond typical brokerage fees, and, if a company has multiple classes of stock outstanding, shares in an unlisted or non-traded class if such shares are convertible by shareholders without undue delay and cost, are also part of the float.

 

For each stock, an investable weight factor (“IWF”) is calculated by dividing the available float shares, defined as the total shares outstanding less shares held in one or more of the three groups listed above where the group holdings exceed 10% of the outstanding shares, by the total shares outstanding. The float-adjusted index will then be calculated by dividing the sum of the IWF multiplied by both the price and the total shares outstanding for each stock by the index divisor. For companies with multiple classes of stock, S&P will calculate the weighted average IWF for each stock using the proportion of the total company market capitalization of each share class as weights.

 

The daily calculation of the S&P 100 Index is computed by dividing the total market value of the S&P 100 Component Stocks by a number called the index divisor. By itself, the index divisor is an arbitrary number. However, in the context of the calculation of the S&P 100 Index, it is the only link to the original base level of the S&P 100 Index. The index divisor keeps the S&P 100 Index comparable over time and is the manipulation point for all adjustments to the S&P 100 Index (“index maintenance”).

 

Index maintenance includes monitoring and completing the adjustments for company additions and deletions, share changes, stock splits, stock dividends, and stock price adjustments due to company restructurings or spinoffs.

 

To prevent the level of the S&P 100 Index from changing due to corporate actions, all corporate actions which affect the total market value of the S&P 100 Index require an index divisor adjustment. By adjusting the index divisor for the change in total market value, the level of the S&P 100 Index remains constant. This ensures that the movement of the S&P 100 Index does not reflect the corporate actions of individual companies in the S&P 100 Index. All index divisor adjustments are made after the close of trading. Some corporate actions, such as stock splits and stock dividends, require simple changes in the common shares outstanding and the stock prices of the companies in the S&P 100 Index and do not require index divisor adjustments.

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

 

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a holder or a beneficial owner of a Note that is a citizen or resident of the United States or a domestic corporation or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis in respect of a Note (a “U.S. Holder”). All references to “holders” (including U.S. Holders) are to beneficial owners of the Notes. This summary is based on U.S. federal income tax laws, regulations, rulings and decisions in effect as of the date of this pricing supplement, all of which are subject to change at any time (possibly with retroactive effect).

 

This summary addresses the U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders who are initial holders of the Notes and who will hold the Notes as capital assets. This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder in light of its individual investment circumstances or to certain types of holders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as dealers in securities or foreign currency, financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations and taxpayers holding the Notes as part of a “straddle,” “hedge,” “conversion transaction,” “synthetic security” or other integrated investment. Moreover, the effect of any applicable state, local or foreign tax laws is not discussed.

 

Investors should consult their own tax advisors in determining the tax consequences to them of holding the Notes, including the application to their particular situation of the U.S. federal income tax considerations discussed below.

 

Tax Characterization of the Notes

 

Citigroup Funding will treat each Note for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a single debt instrument issued by Citigroup Funding that is subject to United States Treasury regulations governing contingent debt instruments (the “Contingent Debt Regulations”). Moreover, each holder, by accepting a Note, agrees to this treatment of the Note and to report all income (or loss) with respect to the Note in accordance with the Contingent Debt Regulations. The remainder of this summary assumes the treatment of each Note as a single debt instrument subject to the Contingent Debt Regulations and the holder’s agreement thereto.

 

United States Holders

 

Taxation of Interest.    A U.S. Holder of a Note will recognize income (or loss) on a Note in accordance with the Contingent Debt Regulations. The Contingent Debt Regulations require the application of a “noncontingent bond method” to determine accruals of income, gain, loss and deductions with respect to a contingent debt obligation. As described in more detail in the second and third succeeding paragraphs, under the noncontingent bond method, a U.S. Holder of a Note will be required for tax purposes to include in income each year an accrual of interest at the annual computational rate of 5.644% (the “comparable yield”). The comparable yield is based on a rate at which Citigroup Funding could issue a fixed rate debt instrument with terms comparable to those of the Notes and no contingent payments. Solely for purposes of determining the comparable yield pursuant to the Contingent Debt Regulations, a U.S. Holder of a Note will be assumed to be entitled to receive, in respect of each Note, a payment of $12.297 at maturity (the “Projected Payment Amount”). The Projected Payment Amount is calculated as the amount required to produce the comparable yield on a Note, taking into account the Note’s issue price.

 

The comparable yield and the Projected Payment Amount are used to determine accruals of interest FOR TAX PURPOSES ONLY and are not assurances or predictions by Citigroup Funding with respect to the actual yield of or payment to be made in respect of a Note. The comparable yield and the Projected Payment Amount do not necessarily represent Citigroup Funding’s expectations regarding such yield or the amount of such payment.

 

Each Note Will be Issued at Par. However, there will be original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“Tax OID”) because a U.S. Holder must accrue income at the comparable yield. Under the Tax OID

 

PS-18


Table of Contents

rules of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, a U.S. Holder of a Note, whether such holder uses the cash or the accrual method of tax accounting, will be required to include as ordinary interest income the sum of the “daily portions” of Tax OID on the Note for all days during the taxable year that the U.S. Holder owns the Note. As a result, U.S. Holders of Notes, including U.S. Holders that employ the cash method of tax accounting, will be required to include amounts in respect of Tax OID accruing on Notes in taxable income each year although the U.S. Holders will receive no payments on the Notes prior to maturity.

 

The daily portions of Tax OID on a Note are determined by allocating to each day in any accrual period a ratable portion of the Tax OID allocable to that accrual period. In the case of an initial holder, the amount of Tax OID on a Note allocable to each accrual period is determined by multiplying the “adjusted issue price” (as defined below) of a Note at the beginning of the accrual period by the comparable yield of a Note (appropriately adjusted to reflect the length of the accrual period). The “adjusted issue price” of a Note at the beginning of any accrual period generally will be the sum of its issue price and the amount of Tax OID allocable to all prior accrual periods. Based upon the comparable yield, if a U.S. Holder that pays taxes on a calendar year basis buys a Note at original issue for $10 and holds it until maturity, such holder will be required to pay taxes on the following amounts of ordinary income from the Note for each of the following periods: $0.2412 in 2006; $0.5780 in 2007; $0.6106 in 2008; $0.6451 in 2009; and $0.2222 in 2010.

 

Disposition of the Notes.    When a U.S. Holder sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of a Note (including upon repayment of the Note at maturity) (a “disposition”), the U.S. Holder’s gain (or loss) on such disposition will equal the difference between the amount received by the U.S. Holder for the Note and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Note. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis (i.e., adjusted cost) in a Note will be equal to the U.S. Holder’s original purchase price for such Note, plus any Tax OID accrued by the U.S. Holder while holding the Note.

 

If the amount received on the Note at maturity exceeds the Projected Payment Amount, the U.S. Holder will be required to include such excess in income as ordinary income. Alternatively, if the amount received at maturity is less than the Projected Payment Amount, the difference between the Projected Payment Amount and the amount received at maturity may be recognized and deducted by the U.S. Holder as an ordinary loss to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s previous Tax OID inclusions with respect to the Note.

 

On a disposition of a Note other than repayment of a Note at maturity, any gain realized by a U.S. Holder will be treated as ordinary interest income. Any loss realized by a U.S. Holder on a disposition will be treated as an ordinary loss to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s Tax OID inclusions with respect to the Note up to the date of disposition. Any loss realized in excess of such amount generally will be treated as a capital loss.

 

An individual U.S. Holder generally will be allowed a deduction for any ordinary loss without regard to the two-percent miscellaneous itemized deduction rule of Section 67 of the Code. Any capital loss recognized by a U.S. Holder will be a long-term capital loss if such U.S. Holder has held such Note for more than one year, and a short-term capital loss in other cases.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.    Information returns may be required to be filed with the IRS relating to payments made to a particular U.S. Holder of Notes. In addition, U.S. Holders may be subject to backup withholding tax on such payments if they do not provide their taxpayer identification numbers to the trustee in the manner required, fail to certify that they are not subject to backup withholding tax, or otherwise fail to comply with applicable backup withholding tax rules. U.S. Holders may also be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax with respect to the proceeds from a sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of the Notes.

 

Non-United States Persons

 

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences that will apply to Non-U.S. Holders of the Notes. The term “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Note that is a foreign corporation or nonresident alien.

 

PS-19


Table of Contents

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors to determine the U.S. federal, state and local and any foreign tax consequences that may be relevant to them.

 

Payment with Respect to the Notes.    Any payment on maturity of the Notes made to a Non-U.S. Holder, and any gain realized on a sale, exchange or redemption of the Notes, will be exempt from U.S. income and withholding tax, provided that:

 

(i) such Non-U.S. Holder does not own, actually or constructively, 10 percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of Citigroup Funding’s stock entitled to vote, and is not a controlled foreign corporation related, directly or indirectly, to Citigroup Funding through stock ownership;

 

(ii) the beneficial owner of a Note certifies on Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form), under penalties of perjury, that it is not a U.S. person and provides its name and address or otherwise satisfies applicable documentation requirements;

 

(iii) such payments and gain are not effectively connected with the conduct by such Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States; and

 

(iv) the stocks underlying the S&P 100 Index are actively traded within the meaning of section 871(h)(4)(C)(v)(I) of the Code.

 

If a Non-U.S. Holder of the Notes is engaged in a trade or business in the United States, and if interest on the Notes is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business, the Non-U.S. Holder, although exempt from the withholding tax discussed in the preceding paragraphs, generally will be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax on interest and on any gain realized on the sale, exchange or redemption of the Notes in the same manner as if it were a U.S. Holder. In lieu of the certificate described in clause (ii) of the second preceding paragraph, such a Non-U.S. Holder will be required to provide to the withholding agent a properly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form) in order to claim an exemption from withholding tax.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.    In general, a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to backup withholding and information reporting with respect to payments made with respect to the Notes if such Non-U.S. Holder has provided Citigroup Funding with an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN described above and Citigroup Funding does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that such Non-U.S. Holder is a U.S. person. In addition, no backup withholding will be required regarding the proceeds of the sale of the Notes made within the United States or conducted through certain U.S. financial intermediaries if the payor receives the statement described above and does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the Non-U.S. Holder is a U.S. person or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

In order to hedge its obligations under the Notes, Citigroup Funding expects to enter into one or more swaps or other derivatives transactions with one or more of its affiliates.
