Determination of three-month U.S. LIBOR

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. Three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR will equal the rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR appearing on Reuters BBA page “LIBOR01” for any relevant date (or any successor page as determined by the calculation agent) at 11:00 am (New York time) on each business day.

If a rate for three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR is not published on Reuters BBA 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 “business day” means any day that in the City of New York is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized by law or regulation to close.

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

Fact Sheet

The notes offered are senior unsecured obligations of Citigroup Funding Inc., will pay interest at the interest rate per annum specified below and will have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement, the prospectus supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this offering summary. From and including August 30, 2011, to but excluding August 30, 2012, the notes will bear interest at a annual interest payment at a fixed rate of 3.50% per annum. From and including August 30, 2012, to but excluding the stated maturity date the notes will bear interest at a annual interest payment equal to three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR plus a spread of 1.25%, subject to a maximum interest rate of 3.50% per annum for any interest period. The maximum interest rate will limit the amount of interest you may be paid on the notes to a maximum of $1,035 per note per quarterly interest period. As a result, if three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR applicable to any interest period is greater than 3.50%, the notes will provide you less interest income than an investment in a similar instrument that is not subject to a maximum per annum interest. The notes are senior unsecured notes issued as part of Citigroup Funding Inc.’s Series D Medium-Term Notes program. All payments on the notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., Citigroup Funding Inc.’s parent company and the guarantor of any payments due on the notes.

ISIN:

Certain U.S. federal income tax considerations:

  

The following summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations for initial U.S. investors who hold the notes as capital assets (“U.S. Holders”). Investors should refer to the accompanying product supplement related to this offering for additional information relating to U.S. federal income tax and consult their tax advisors in determining the tax consequences of an investment in the notes, including the application of state, local and other tax laws and the possible effects of changes in federal or other tax laws.

 

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

•       At maturity or upon taxable disposition of the notes, 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.

 

In the case of a holder of the notes that is not a U.S. person, all payments made with respect to the notes and any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of the notes will not be subject to U.S. income or withholding tax, provided that such payments and gain are not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by such holder and the holder complies with applicable certification requirements (generally, an IRS form W-8BEN). Further, if such holder does not comply with applicable certification requirements, such holder may be subject to backup withholding.

 

Notes beneficially owned by a non-U.S. holder who at the time of death is neither a resident nor a citizen of the United States generally should not be subject to U.S. federal estate tax.

 

You should refer to the accompanying product supplement related to this offering for additional information relating to U.S. federal income tax treatment. You should also consult your own tax advisors to determine tax consequences particular to your situation.

Trustee:

   The Bank of New York Mellon.

Calculation agent:

   Citigroup Global Markets Inc.

Use of proceeds and hedging:

  

The net proceeds received from the sale of the notes will be used for general corporate purposes and, in part, in connection with hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates.

 

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, or by taking positions in any other available securities or instruments that we may wish to use in connection with such hedging. 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 Inc.’s affiliate Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may be willing to purchase your notes in the secondary market. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Risk Factors—Citigroup Funding Inc.’s Hedging Activity Could Result in a Conflict of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement and the section “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus related to this offering.

ERISA and IRA purchase considerations:

  

Employee benefit plans subject to ERISA, entities the assets of which are deemed to constitute the assets of such plans, governmental or other plans subject to laws substantially similar to ERISA and retirement accounts (including Keogh, SEP and SIMPLE plans, individual retirement accounts and individual retirement annuities) are permitted to purchase the notes as long as either (A) (1) no Citigroup Global Markets Inc. affiliate or employee or affiliate’s employee is a fiduciary to such plan or retirement account that has or exercises any discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of such plan or retirement account used to purchase the notes or renders investment advice with respect to those assets, and (2) such plan or retirement account is paying no more than adequate consideration for the notes or (B) its acquisition and holding of the notes is not prohibited by any such provisions or laws or is exempt from any such prohibition.

 

However, individual retirement accounts, individual retirement annuities and Keogh plans, as well as employee benefit plans that permit participants to direct the investment of their accounts, will not be permitted to purchase or hold the notes if the account, plan or annuity is for the benefit of an employee of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., or 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.

   You should refer to the section “ERISA Matters” in the accompanying product supplement related to this offering for more information.

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. will pay the Registered Representatives of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. a sales commission of $15 for each note they sell.

 

Additionally, it is possible that Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and its affiliates may profit from expected hedging activity related to this offering, even if the value of the notes declines. You should refer to “Key Terms—Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest” and “Risk Factors” in this offering summary and “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes” and “Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement for more information.

Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest:

   Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is an affiliate of Citigroup Funding Inc. Accordingly, the offering of the notes will conform with the requirements addressing conflicts of interest when distributing the securities of an affiliate set forth in Rule 5121 of the Conduct Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Client accounts over which Citigroup Inc., its subsidiaries or affiliates of its subsidiaries have investment discretion are not permitted to purchase the notes, either directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the client. See “Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest” in the accompanying product supplement related to this offering of notes.

Contact:

   Clients may contact their local brokerage representative. Third-party distributors may contact Citi Structured Investment Sales at (212) 723-7005.

This offering summary represents a summary of the terms and conditions of the notes. We encourage you to read the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus related to this offering, which can be accessed via the hyperlinks on the front page of this document, before you invest in the notes.

Risk Factors

The notes offered by this offering summary are financial instruments that are suitable only for investors who are capable of understanding the complexities and risks specific to the notes. Accordingly, investors should consult their own financial, legal and tax advisers as to the risks entailed by an investment in the notes and the suitability of the notes in light of an investor’s particular circumstances.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors for investors in the notes. For further discussion of these and other risks you should read the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement and prospectus supplement related to this offering.

 

n  

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 August 30, 2011, to but excluding August 30, 2012 the notes will bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 3.50%. From and including August 30, 2012 to but excluding the stated 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 1.25%, subject to a maximum interest rate of 3.50% per annum for any interest period. 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 three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR increases during that interest period.

Non-Callable Floating Rate Notes Due 2016

 

 

 

n  

The interest rate applicable to the notes will be subject to a maximum per annum rate. From August 30, 2012, to but excluding the stated maturity date, the interest rate applicable to the notes cannot exceed 3.50% per annum for any quarterly interest period. This maximum interest rate will limit the amount of interest you may be paid on the notes to a maximum of $1,035 per note per quarterly interest period. As a result, if three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR applicable to any interest period is greater than 3.50% (taking into account that a spread of 1.25% will be added to three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR on the applicable interest determination date), the notes will provide you less interest income than an investment in a similar instrument that is not subject to a maximum per annum interest rate.

 

n  

The yield on the notes may be lower than the yield on a standard debt security of comparable maturity. Due to the fact that the notes will initially bear interest at a fixed rate and then subsequently a floating rate, the effective yield on the notes may be less than that which would be payable on a conventional fixed-rate, non-callable debt security of Citigroup Funding Inc. (guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.) of comparable maturity.

 

n  

Secondary market sales of the notes may result in a loss of principal. You will be entitled to receive at least the full principal amount of your notes, subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc., only if you hold the notes to maturity. The market value of the notes may fluctuate, and if you sell your notes in the secondary market prior to maturity, you may receive less than your initial investment.

 

n  

The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc. and any actual or anticipated changes to its credit ratings or 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 any 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.

 

n  

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 you originally invest. Numerous factors will influence the value of the notes in the secondary market and the price at which Citigroup Global Markets Inc. may be willing to purchase or sell the notes in the secondary market, including: the supply and demand for the notes, the level and volatility of three-month U.S-dollar LIBOR, interest rates in the market, the time remaining to maturity, hedging activities by our affiliates, fees and projected hedging fees, and any actual or anticipated changes in the credit ratings, financial condition and results of Citigroup Funding Inc. and Citigroup Inc. As a result, the market value of the notes will vary and may be less than the original issue price at any time prior to maturity and sale of the notes prior to maturity may result in a loss.

 

n  

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 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.

 

n  

The inclusion of underwriting fees and projected profit from hedging in the original issue price is likely to adversely affect secondary market prices. The price, if any, at which Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is willing to purchase the notes in secondary market transactions will likely be lower than the 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 for the notes may differ from values determined by pricing models used by Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as a result of dealer discounts, mark-ups or other transaction costs. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Can You Tell Me More About the Effect of Citigroup Funding Inc.’s Hedging Activity?” in the accompanying product supplement related to this offering.

 

n  

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 Inc. 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 Inc. is willing to transact. If, at any time, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. were not to make a market in the notes it is likely that there would be no secondary market for the notes. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold the notes to maturity.

 

n  

The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of the issuer, will make determinations with respect to the notes. Citigroup Global Markets Inc., which is acting as the calculation agent for the notes, is an affiliate of ours. As calculation agent, Citigroup Global Markets Inc 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 Global Markets Inc. 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.

 

n  

Citigroup Funding Inc.’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 Inc. 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.

 

n  

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.

For further discussion of these and other risks you should read the section entitled “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes” in the accompanying product supplement and “Risk Factors” in the related prospectus supplement for a full description of risks. The issuer also urges you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers, before you invest in the notes.
