SUMMARY INFORMATION — Q&A

What Are the Notes?

The Non-Callable Fixed to Float Notes Due June 24, 2015 are securities offered by Citigroup Funding and have a maturity of five years.

From and including June 24, 2010 to but excluding June 24, 2011, the notes will bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 3.75%.

From and including June 24, 2011 to but excluding the maturity date, the notes will bear interest during each quarterly interest period at the per annum rate equal to the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR determined on the second London Business Day prior to the first day of the applicable interest period plus a spread of 2.00% (as described in “— Determination of Three-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR” below). All payments on the notes, including the repayment of principal are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc.

The notes mature on June 24, 2015. 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, including any payment of principal, will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of Citigroup Inc.

Each note represents a principal amount of $1,000. You may transfer the notes only in units of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. 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 (“DTC”) 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 the accompanying prospectus supplement and the section “Description of Debt Securities—Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement” in the accompanying prospectus.

Will I Receive Interest on the Notes?

While the notes will earn a fixed rate of interest from issuance to but excluding June 24, 2011, the interest payments on the notes from and including June 24, 2011 to but excluding the maturity date will vary. We expect to pay interest in cash quarterly on each March 11, June 11, September 11 and December 11, beginning on September 11, 2010 and ending on the maturity date, each an interest payment date. Each three-month period from and including an interest payment date to but excluding the next interest payment date, the maturity date or any earlier date upon which the notes are redeemed is an interest period. During each interest period interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, so that each interest period will be deemed to consist of 90 days.

From and including June 24, 2010 to but excluding June 24, 2011, the notes will bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 3.75%.

From and including June 24, 2011 to but excluding the maturity date, the notes will bear interest during each quarterly interest period at the per annum rate equal to the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR determined on the second London Business Day prior to the first day of the applicable interest period plus a spread of 2.00%. The per annum interest rate calculated for any quarterly interest period is applicable only to that quarterly interest period; interest payments for any other quarterly interest period will vary.

What Will I Receive at Maturity of the Notes?

The notes will mature on June 24, 2015. Subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., at maturity you will receive for each note you hold an amount in cash equal to $1,000 plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

What Will I Receive if I Sell the Notes Prior to Maturity?

The full principal amount of your notes is due at maturity, subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., only if you hold the notes at maturity. If you choose to sell your notes before the notes mature, you should not expect to receive the full principal amount of the notes you sell. You should refer to the sections “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” and “—You May Not Be Able to Sell Your Notes if an Active Trading Market for the Notes Does Not Develop” in this pricing supplement for further information.

Who Publishes Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR and What Does It Measure?

Three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR is a daily reference rate fixed in U.S. dollars based on the interest rates at which banks borrow funds from each other for a term of three months, in marketable size, in the London interbank market. Unless otherwise stated in this pricing supplement, the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will equal the rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR appearing on Reuters page “LIBOR01” for any relevant date (as described in the section “Description of the Notes—Determination of Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR”).

How Has Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR Performed Historically?

We have provided a table showing the historical quarterly high and low levels of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR since January 4, 2005. You can find this table in the section “Historical Data on Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR” in this pricing supplement. We have provided this historical information to help you evaluate the behavior of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR in recent years. However, past performance is not indicative of how three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will perform in the future. You should also refer to the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes—The Historical Performance of Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR Is Not an Indication of the Future Performance of Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR” in this pricing supplement.

What Are the U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Investing in the Notes?

Amounts received as interest payments on the Notes will be taxable as ordinary interest income at the time that such payments are accrued or are received (in accordance with the holder’s method of tax accounting). Upon the sale or other taxable disposition of a Note, a holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on such disposition and such holder’s tax basis in such Note. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder has held the Note for more than one year at the time of disposition. 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 will not be listed on any exchange.

Citigroup Inc. 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 Inc. whose business activities consist primarily of providing funds to Citigroup Inc. and its subsidiaries for general corporate purposes.

As of the date of this pricing supplement, senior debt securities of Citigroup Funding, including the notes, are rated “A3” by Moody’s Investors Service and “A” by Standard and Poor’s Financial Services LLC.

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

Our affiliate, Citigroup Global Markets, 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 Inc. and/or other of our affiliated dealers currently intend, but are not obligated, 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; Conflicts of Interest” in this pricing supplement, the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. However, neither Citigroup Global Markets Inc. nor any of these affiliates will be obligated to engage in any market-making activities, or continue those activities once it has started them.

Our affiliate, Citigroup Financial Products Inc., will act as calculation agent for the notes. As calculation agent, Citigroup Financial Products will make determinations with respect to 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 will likely involve trading in instruments, such as options, swaps or futures, based on three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR. The costs of maintaining or adjusting this hedging activity could affect the price at which our affiliate Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market. Moreover, this hedging activity may result in our or our affiliates’ receipt of 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, as amended, Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or substantially similar federal, state or local laws including individual retirement accounts (which we call “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 either that (A)(i) none of Citigroup Global Markets, its affiliates or any employee thereof is a Plan fiduciary that has or exercises any discretionary authority or control with respect to the Plan’s assets used to purchase the notes or renders investment advice with respect to those assets and (ii) the Plan 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 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. Please refer to the section “ERISA Matters” in this pricing supplement for further information.

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-4


Table of Contents

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE NOTES

Because the terms of the notes differ from those of conventional debt securities, an investment in the notes entails significant risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities, including, among other things, fluctuations in the level of the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR, and other events that are difficult to predict and beyond our control.

The Amount of Interest Payable on the Notes Will Vary

Because three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR is a floating rate, the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will fluctuate. From and including June 24, 2011 to but excluding the maturity date, the notes will bear interest during each quarterly interest period at the per annum rate equal to three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR determined on the second London Business Day prior to the first day of the applicable interest period plus a spread of 2.00%. Furthermore, the per annum interest rate that is determined on the relevant interest determination date will apply to the entire interest period following such interest determination date even if the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR increases during that interest period.

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.

The Notes are Subject to the Credit Risk of Citigroup Inc. and Any Actual or Anticipated Changes to its Credit Ratings and Credit Spreads May Adversely Affect the Market Value of the Notes

You are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc. The notes are not guaranteed by an entity other than Citigroup Inc. If Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations under the notes, your investment would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the notes will be affected by changes in the market’s view of Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness. 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. credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of 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

We believe that the value of the notes in any secondary market will be affected by supply of and demand for the notes, the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR 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.

The Level of Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR. We expect that the market value of the notes at any time may be affected by changes in the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR. For example, an increase in the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR could cause an increase in the market value of the notes. Conversely, a decrease in the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR may cause a decrease in the market value of the notes. The level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will be influenced by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors that can affect the money markets generally and the London interbank market in particular.

Volatility of Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR. Volatility is the term used to describe the size and frequency of market fluctuations. If the volatility of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR changes, the market value of the notes may change.

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.

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 level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR the longer the time remaining to maturity. A “time premium” or “discount” results from expectations concerning the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR 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 will likely involve trading in one or more instruments, such as options, swaps or futures, based upon three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR. This hedging activity could affect the value of the notes. It is possible that our affiliates or we 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 Citigroup Funding’s affiliate Citigroup Global Markets may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market.

Fees and Projected Hedging Profits. The price, if any, at which Citigroup Global Markets is willing to purchase the notes in secondary market transactions will likely be lower than the public offering price since the public offering price of the notes will include, 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 transaction. Our affiliates may realize a profit from the expected hedging activity even if the market value of the notes declines. In addition, any secondary market prices may differ from values determined by pricing models used by Citigroup Global Markets, as a result of dealer discounts, mark-ups or other transaction costs.

Credit Ratings, Financial Condition, and Results of Citigroup Funding and Citigroup Inc. Actual or anticipated changes in Citigroup Funding’s financial condition or results or the credit rating, financial condition, or results of Citigroup Inc. may affect the market value of the notes. The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., the guarantor of all payments due on the notes, including the repayment of principal.

We want you to understand that the impact of one of the factors specified above may offset or magnify some or all of any change in the market value of the notes attributable to another factor.

The Historical Performance of Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR Is Not an Indication of Its Future Performance

The historical performance of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR, which is included in this pricing supplement, should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR during the term of the notes. Changes in the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will affect the trading price of the notes, but it is impossible to predict whether the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will rise or fall.

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

The notes will not be listed on any exchange. 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 and this may reduce the price you receive. 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 is willing to transact. If, at any time, Citigroup Global Markets 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 Issuer, Will Make Determinations with Respect to the Notes

Citigroup Financial Products, which is acting as the calculation agent for the notes, is an affiliate of ours. As calculation agent, Citigroup Financial Products will determine three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR and will calculate the interest payable to you on each interest payment date. Any of these determinations made by Citigroup Financial Products in its capacity as calculation agent, including with respect to the calculation of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR in the event of the unavailability of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR, may adversely affect the interest payments to you.

Citigroup Funding’s Hedging Activity Could Result in a Conflict of Interest

In anticipation of the sale of the notes, we expect one or more of our affiliates to enter into hedge transactions. This hedging activity will likely involve trading in instruments, such as options, swaps or futures, based upon three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR. This hedging activity may present a conflict between your interest in the notes and the interests our affiliates have in executing, maintaining and adjusting their hedge transactions because it could affect the price at which our affiliate Citigroup Global Markets may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market. Since hedging the obligations under the notes involves risk and may be influenced by a number of factors, it is possible that our affiliates may profit from the hedging activity, even if the market value of the notes declines.

You Will Have No Rights Against the Publishers of Three-Month U.S. Dollar LIBOR

You will have no rights against the publishers of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR even though the amount you receive on an interest payment date will depend upon the level of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR. The publishers of three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR are not in any way involved in this offering and have no obligations relating to the notes or the holders of the notes.

General

The Non-Callable Fixed to Float Notes Due June 24, 2015 (the “Notes”) are securities offered by Citigroup Funding and have a maturity of five years.

From and including June 24, 2010 to but excluding June 24, 2011, the Notes will bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 3.75%.

From and including June 24, 2011 to but excluding the maturity date, the Notes will bear interest during each quarterly interest period at the per annum rate equal to the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR determined on the second London Business Day prior to the first day of the applicable Interest Period plus a spread of 2.00% (as described in “—Determination of Three-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR” below).

The Notes are a series of debt securities issued under the senior debt indenture described in the accompanying prospectus, any payments on which are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Citigroup Inc. The aggregate principal amount of Notes issued will be $10,000,000 (10,000 Notes). The Notes will mature on June 24, 2015. The Notes 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 payments due under the Notes, including any payment of principal, will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of Citigroup Inc. The Notes will be issued only in fully registered form and in denominations of $1,000 per Note and integral multiples thereof.

Reference is made to the accompanying prospectus supplement and 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

The amount of any quarterly interest payment on the Notes will vary. We expect to pay interest quarterly on each March 11, June 11, September 11 and December 11, beginning on September 11, 2010 and ending on the maturity date, each an Interest Payment Date. Each three-month period from and including an Interest Payment Date to but excluding the next Interest Payment Date or the maturity date is an Interest Period. During each Interest Period interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, so that each Interest Period will be deemed to consist of 90 days.

From and including June 24, 2010 to but excluding June 24, 2011, the Notes will bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 3.75%.

From and including June 24, 2011 to but excluding the maturity date, the Notes will bear interest during each quarterly interest period at the per annum rate equal to the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR determined on the second London Business Day prior to the first day of the applicable Interest Period plus a spread of 2.00%. The per

 

PS-8


Table of Contents

annum interest rate calculated for any quarterly Interest Period is applicable only to that quarterly Interest Period; interest payments for any other quarterly Interest Period will vary.

Three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR is a daily reference rate fixed in U.S. dollars based on the interest rates at which banks borrow funds from each other for a term of three months, in marketable size, in the London interbank market. The three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will equal the rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR appearing on Reuters page “LIBOR01” for any relevant date (or any successor page as determined by the calculation agent) at 11:00 am (New York time).

Interest will be payable to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Business Day preceding each Interest Payment Date. If an Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment to be made on that Interest Payment Date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day. Such payment will have the same force and effect as if made on that Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest will accrue as a result of delayed payment.

A “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which the securities exchanges or banking institutions or trust companies in the City of New York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

Payment at Maturity

The Notes will mature on June 24, 2015. Subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., at maturity you will receive for each Note you hold an amount in cash equal to $1,000 plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

Determination of Three-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR

If a rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR is not published on Reuters page “LIBOR01” (or any successor page as determined by the calculation agent) on any Business Day on which the rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR is required, then the calculation agent will request the principal London office of each of five major reference banks in the London interbank market, selected by the calculation agent, to provide such bank’s offered quotation to prime banks in the London interbank market for deposits in U.S. dollars in an amount that is representative of a single transaction in that market at that time (a “Representative Amount”) and for a term of three months as of 11:00 am (London time) on such Business Day. If at least two such quotations are so provided, the rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, the calculation agent will request each of three major banks in The City of New York to provide such bank’s rate to leading European banks for loans in U.S. dollars in a Representative Amount and for a term of three months as of approximately 11:00 am (New York City time) on such London Business Day. If at least two such rates are so provided, the rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such rates. If fewer than two such rates are so provided or if the Business Day is not also a London Business Day, then the rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will be the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR in effect at 11:00 am (New York City time) on the immediately preceding Business Day.

A “London Business Day” means any day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.

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 the

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations material to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes. Unless otherwise specifically indicated herein, this summary addresses the tax consequences only to a person that is 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 financial transaction. 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 of state, local or other tax laws and the possible effects of changes in federal or other tax laws.

U.S. Holders

Receipt of Interest Payments. Amounts received as interest payments on the Notes will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time that such payments are accrued or are received (in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of tax accounting).

Purchase, Sale and Retirement of Notes. Upon the sale, exchange or retirement of a Note, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange or retirement and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such Note. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in a Note generally will equal the cost of such Note to such holder. Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the Note for more than one year at the time of disposition. Long-term capital gains recognized by an individual holder generally are subject to tax at a lower rate than short-term capital gains or ordinary income. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Information returns may be required to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service (“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-U.S. Holders

A holder or beneficial owner of Notes that is not a U.S. Holder (a “Non-U.S. Holder”) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on the payments of interest on the Notes, provided that the Non-U.S. Holder certifies on IRS Form W-8BEN (or a successor form), under penalties of perjury, that it is a Non-U.S. Holder and provides its name and address or otherwise satisfies applicable documentation requirements and the payments are not effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States (or, where a tax treaty applies, are not attributable to a United States permanent establishment). Any gain realized on the sale of Notes by a Non-U.S. Holder will generally be exempt from U.S. federal income and withholding tax unless the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the Non-U.S. Holder (or, where a tax treaty applies, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment),

or in the case of gain realized by an individual Non-U.S. Holder, the Non-U.S. Holder is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the sale and certain other conditions are met.

In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal backup withholding or information reporting with respect to payments of interest on the Notes if the Non-U.S. Holder provides an IRS Form W-8BEN (or a successor form) with respect to such payments.

U.S. Federal Estate Tax

A Note beneficially owned by a non-U.S. Holder who at the time of death is neither a resident nor citizen of the U.S. should not be subject to U.S. federal estate tax.
