Autocallable Phoenix Securities Based on the SPDR®
S&P 500® ETF Trust Due June 24, 2026
| § | The securities offered by this pricing supplement are unsecured senior debt securities issued by Citigroup Global Markets Holdings
Inc. and guaranteed by Citigroup Inc. The securities offer the potential for contingent coupon payments at an annualized rate
that, if all are paid, would produce a yield that is generally higher than the yield on our conventional debt securities of the same maturity.
In exchange for this higher potential yield, you must be willing to accept the risks that (i) your actual yield may be lower than the
yield on our conventional debt securities of the same maturity because you may not receive one or more, or any, contingent coupon payments;
(ii) your actual yield may be negative because, at maturity, you may receive significantly less than the stated principal amount of your
securities and possibly nothing; and (iii) the securities may be automatically redeemed prior to maturity. Each of these risks will depend
on the performance of the shares of SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (the “underlying shares”),
as described below. Although you will be exposed to downside risk with respect to the underlying shares, you will not participate
in any appreciation of the underlying shares or receive any dividends paid on the underlying shares. If the final share price is less
than the final barrier price, you will lose more than 1% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1% by which the final
share price has declined beyond the buffer amount. Accordingly, the lower the final share price, the less benefit you will receive from
the buffer. There is no minimum payment at maturity. |
| § | Investors in the securities must be willing to accept (i) an investment that may have limited or no liquidity and (ii) the risk of
not receiving any payments due under the securities if we and Citigroup Inc. default on our obligations. All payments on
the securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. |

If the relevant share price on any interim valuation date or with respect to the final valuation date, as applicable, is less than the coupon barrier price, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related contingent coupon payment date. If the relevant share price is less than the coupon barrier price on one or more interim valuation dates and, on a subsequent interim valuation date or with respect to the final valuation date, the relevant share price is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier price, your contingent coupon payment for that subsequent interim valuation date or with respect to the final valuation date, as applicable, will include all previously unpaid contingent coupon payments (without interest on amounts previously unpaid). However, if the relevant share price is less than the coupon barrier price on an interim valuation date and on each subsequent interim valuation date thereafter and with respect to the final valuation date, you will not receive the unpaid contingent coupon payments in respect of those interim valuation dates and with respect to the final valuation date. |
Automatic early redemption: |
If, on any of the interim valuation dates, the closing price of the underlying shares is greater than or equal to the initial share price, each security you then hold will be automatically redeemed on the related contingent coupon payment date for an amount in cash equal to $1,000 plus the related contingent coupon payment (including any previously unpaid contingent coupon payments). |

Additional Information
General. The terms of the
securities are set forth in the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus, as supplemented by this pricing
supplement. The accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus contain important disclosures that are not repeated
in this pricing supplement. For example, certain events may occur that could affect whether you receive a contingent coupon payment on
a contingent coupon payment date or the securities are automatically redeemed as well as your payment at maturity. These events and their
consequences are described in the accompanying product supplement in the sections “Description of the Securities—Consequences
of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement of a Valuation Date,” “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms
for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” and “Description
of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Delisting,
Liquidation or Termination of an Underlying ETF,” and not in this pricing supplement (except as set forth in the next two paragraphs).
It is important that you read the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus together with this pricing supplement
in connection with your investment in the securities. Certain terms used but not defined in this pricing supplement are defined in the
accompanying product supplement.
Dilution and Reorganization
Adjustments. The initial share price, the coupon barrier price and the final barrier price are each a “Relevant Value”
for purposes of the section “Description of the Securities— Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying
Company or an Underlying ETF—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” in the accompanying product supplement. Accordingly,
the initial share price, the coupon barrier price and the final barrier price are each subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of any
of the events described in that section.
Postponement of the Final Valuation Date; Postponement of the Maturity
Date. If the scheduled final valuation date is not a scheduled trading day, the final valuation date will be postponed
to the next succeeding scheduled trading day. In addition, if a market disruption event occurs on the scheduled final valuation
date, the calculation agent may, but is not required to, postpone the final valuation date to the next succeeding scheduled trading day
on which a market disruption event does not occur. However, in no event will the scheduled final valuation date be postponed more than
five scheduled trading days after the originally scheduled final valuation date as a result of a market disruption event occurring on
the scheduled final valuation date. If the final valuation date is postponed so that it falls less than three business days prior to the
scheduled maturity date, the maturity date will be postponed to the third business day after the final valuation date as postponed. The
provisions in this paragraph supersede the related provisions in the accompanying product supplement to the extent the provisions in this
paragraph are inconsistent with those provisions. The terms “scheduled trading day” and “market disruption
event” are defined in the accompanying product supplement. Each interim valuation date is subject to postponement on
the terms set forth with respect to valuation dates in the accompanying product supplement.

Hypothetical Examples
The table below illustrates various hypothetical payments on the securities
at maturity for a range of hypothetical final share prices of the underlying shares, assuming the securities are not automatically redeemed. The
outcomes illustrated in the table are not exhaustive, and the actual payment at maturity you receive on the securities may differ from
any example illustrated below.
The table and examples that follow are based on the following hypothetical
values and assumptions in order to illustrate how the securities work and do not reflect the actual initial share price, coupon barrier
price or final barrier price.
Initial share price: |
$100.00 (the hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares on the strike date) |
Coupon barrier price: |
$90.00 (90.00% of the hypothetical initial share price) |
Final barrier price: |
$90.00 (90.00% of the hypothetical initial share price) |
Contingent coupon: |
1.025% of the stated principal amount, paid on each contingent coupon payment date |
For ease

| (1) | The final share price is equal to the closing price of the underlying shares on the final valuation date. You will be repaid
the stated principal amount of your securities if, and only if, the final share price is greater than or equal to the final barrier price. |
| (2) | You will receive a contingent coupon payment at maturity if, and only if, the final share price is greater than or equal to the coupon
barrier price. For purposes of this table, it is assumed that there are no previously unpaid contingent coupon payments. |
The examples below illustrate various possible outcomes under the securities. The
examples do not illustrate all possible outcomes, and the return you actually receive on an investment in the securities may differ from
any example shown below. References below to the total return on an investment in the securities take into account all contingent
coupon payments received (if any) on or prior to the date of redemption or maturity.
Examples
assuming the securities are automatically redeemed prior to maturity:
Example 1: The hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares
on the first interim valuation date is $110.00, which is greater than the hypothetical initial share price. Because the hypothetical
closing price of the underlying shares is greater than the hypothetical initial share price on the first interim valuation date, the securities
would be automatically redeemed on the first contingent coupon payment date for $1,010.25 per security, consisting of the stated principal
amount of $1,000 plus the related contingent coupon payment of $10.25. In this scenario, the term of the securities would be approximately
one month and you would receive a total return of 1.025% on your investment in the securities.
Example 2: The hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares
on the first interim valuation date is $50.00, which is less than the hypothetical coupon barrier price. As a result,
no contingent coupon payment would be paid on the first contingent coupon payment date. On the second interim valuation date,
the hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares is $95.00, which is greater than the hypothetical coupon barrier price
but less than the hypothetical initial share price. As a result, on the second contingent coupon payment date, a contingent
coupon payment of $10.25 per security plus the contingent coupon payment of $10.25 per security related to the first interim valuation
date would be paid and the securities would not be automatically redeemed. On the third interim valuation date, the hypothetical
closing price of the underlying shares is $130.00, which is greater than the hypothetical initial share price. Because
the hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares on the third interim valuation date is greater than the hypothetical initial share
price, the securities would be automatically redeemed on the third contingent coupon payment date for $1,010.25 per security, consisting
of the stated principal amount of $1,000 plus the related contingent coupon payment of $10.25. In this scenario, the
term of the securities would be approximately three months and you would receive a total return of 3.075% on your investment in the securities.

|
In each of the previous examples, the automatic early redemption feature
of the securities would limit the term of the securities to less than the full term to maturity, and possibly to as short as one month. If
the securities are automatically redeemed early, you will not receive any additional contingent coupon payments after the redemption,
and you may not be able to reinvest in other investments that offer comparable terms or returns. Although in each of these
examples the hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares on the interim valuation date immediately before redemption is greater
than the hypothetical initial share price, investors in the securities will not share in any appreciation of the underlying shares.
Examples
assuming the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity:
Example 3: The hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares
on each of the interim valuation dates is less than the hypothetical initial share price but greater than the hypothetical
coupon barrier price, and the hypothetical final share price is $120.00, which is greater than the hypothetical final barrier price. In
this scenario, you would receive a contingent coupon payment of $10.25 per security on each contingent coupon payment date prior to maturity
and, on the maturity date, would receive $1,010.25 per security, consisting of the stated principal amount of $1,000 plus the contingent
coupon payment of $10.25 due at maturity. The total return on your investment in the securities in this example is 12.30%,
which is the maximum return you may receive on an investment in the securities. As this example illustrates, the return you
receive on an investment in the securities may be less than the return you could have received on a direct investment in the underlying
shares.
Example 4: The hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares
is less than the hypothetical initial share price on each of the interim valuation dates but greater than the hypothetical
coupon barrier price on only the first interim valuation date, and the hypothetical final share price is $95.00, which is greater than
the hypothetical final barrier price. Because the hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares is greater than the
hypothetical coupon barrier price on only the first interim valuation date, you would receive the contingent coupon payment of $10.25
per security on only the contingent coupon payment date related to the first interim valuation date. On the maturity date,
because the final share price is greater than the final barrier price, you would receive $1,112.75 per security, consisting of the stated
principal amount of $1,000 plus the contingent coupon payment of $10.25 due at maturity plus the ten contingent coupon payments
of $10.25 each related to the second through eleventh interim valuation dates. In this scenario, your total return on your
investment in the securities would be 12.30%.
Example 5: The hypothetical
closing price of the underlying shares on each of the interim valuation dates is less than the hypothetical initial share price
but greater than the hypothetical coupon barrier price, and the hypothetical final share price is $50.00, which is less than
the hypothetical final barrier price. Because the hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares is greater than the hypothetical
coupon barrier price on each interim valuation date, you would receive the contingent coupon payment of $10.25 per
security on each contingent coupon payment date prior to the maturity date. On the maturity date, because the final share price
is less than the final barrier price, you would receive $555.556 per security, calculated
as follows:
Payment at maturity = $1,000 +
[$1,000 × the buffer rate × (the share return + the buffer amount)]
= $1,000 + [$1,000 × 1.11111
× (-50% + 10%)]
= $1,000 + [$1,000 × 1.11111
× (-40%)]
= $555.556
In this scenario, you would receive
significantly less than the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity. Because the final share price is less than the final
barrier price, you will lose more than 1% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1% by which the final share price
has declined beyond the buffer amount. In addition, because the final share price is below the coupon barrier price, you will not receive
any contingent coupon payment at maturity. In this scenario, your total return on your investment in the securities would be -33.1694%.
Example 6: The hypothetical
closing price of the underlying shares on each of the interim valuation dates is less than the hypothetical initial share price
but greater than the hypothetical coupon barrier price, and the hypothetical final share price is $20.00,
which is less than the hypothetical final barrier price. Because the hypothetical closing price of the underlying shares
is greater than the hypothetical coupon barrier price on each interim valuation date, you would receive the contingent coupon payment
of $10.25 per security on each contingent coupon payment date prior to the maturity date. On
the maturity date, because the final share price is less than the final barrier price, you would receive $222.222 per
security, calculated as follows:
Payment at maturity = $1,000 +
[$1,000 × the buffer rate × (the share return + the buffer amount)]
= $1,000 + [$1,000 × 1.11111
× (-80% + 10%)]
= $1,000 + [$1,000 × 1.11111
× (-70%)]
= $222.222
In this scenario, you would receive
significantly less than the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity. Because the final share price is less than the final
barrier price, you will lose more than 1% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1% by which the final share price
has declined beyond the buffer amount. A comparison of this example with the previous example illustrates the diminishing benefit
of the buffer the greater the depreciation of the underlying shares. In addition, because the final
share price is below the coupon barrier price, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment at maturity. In this scenario, your
total return on your investment in the securities would be -66.5028%.

Summary Risk Factors
An investment in the securities is significantly riskier than an investment
in conventional debt securities. The securities are subject to all of the risks associated with an investment in our conventional
debt securities (guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.), including the risk that we and Citigroup Inc. may default on our obligations under the
securities, and are also subject to risks associated with the underlying shares. Accordingly, the securities are suitable only
for investors who are capable of understanding the complexities and risks of the securities. You should consult your own financial,
tax and legal advisors as to the risks of an investment in the securities and the suitability of the securities in light of your particular
circumstances.
The following is a summary of certain key risk factors for investors
in the securities. You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of risks relating to an investment
in the securities contained in the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” beginning on page EA-7 in the accompanying
product supplement. You should also carefully read the risk factors included in the accompanying prospectus supplement and
in the documents incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus, including Citigroup Inc.’s most recent Annual Report
on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which describe risks relating to the business of Citigroup Inc. more generally.
| § | You may lose some or all of your investment. Unlike conventional debt securities,
the securities do not provide for the repayment of the stated principal amount at maturity in all circumstances. If the securities
are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final share price is less than the final barrier price, you will lose more than
1% of the stated principal amount of the securities for every 1% by which the final share price has declined beyond the buffer amount. You
should understand that any decline in the final share price beyond the buffer amount will result in a magnified loss to your investment
by the buffer rate, which will progressively offset any protection that the buffer amount would offer. The lower the final share price,
the less benefit you will receive from the buffer. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities, and you may lose up to all
of your investment. |
| § | You will not receive any contingent coupon payment on any contingent coupon payment date for which the relevant share price is
less than the coupon barrier price on the related interim valuation date or with respect to the final valuation date, as applicable.
A contingent coupon payment will be made on a contingent coupon payment date if and only if the relevant share price for the related interim
valuation date or with respect to the final valuation date, as applicable, is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier price. If the
relevant share price is less than the coupon barrier price for any interim valuation date or with respect to the final valuation date,
as applicable, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related contingent coupon payment date. You will receive a contingent
coupon payment that has not been paid on a subsequent contingent coupon payment date if and only if the relevant share price for the related
interim valuation date or with respect to the final valuation date, as applicable, is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier price.
If the relevant share price is below the coupon barrier price for each interim valuation date and with respect to the final valuation
date, you will not receive any contingent coupon payments over the term of the securities. |
| § | Higher contingent coupon rates are associated with greater risk. The securities offer contingent coupon payments
at an annualized rate that, if all are paid, would produce a yield that is generally higher than the yield on our conventional debt securities
of the same maturity. This higher potential yield is associated with greater levels of expected risk as of the pricing date for the securities,
including the risks that you may not receive a contingent coupon payment on one or more, or any, contingent coupon payment dates, the
securities will not be automatically redeemed and the amount you receive at maturity may be significantly less than the stated principal
amount of your securities and may be zero. The volatility of the underlying shares is an important factor affecting these risks. Greater
expected volatility of the underlying shares as of the pricing date may result in a higher contingent coupon rate, but it also represents
a greater expected likelihood as of the pricing date that (i) the relevant share price will be less than the coupon barrier price for
one or more interim valuation dates or with respect to the final valuation date, such that you will not receive one or more, or any, contingent
coupon payments during the term of the securities, (ii) the relevant share price will be less than the initial share price on each interim
valuation date, such that the securities are not automatically redeemed and (iii) the final share price will be less than the final barrier
price, such that you will not be repaid the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity. |
| § | You may not be adequately compensated for assuming the downside risk of the underlying shares. The potential contingent
coupon payments on the securities are the compensation you receive for assuming the downside risk of the underlying shares, as well as
all the other risks of the securities. That compensation is effectively “at risk” and may, therefore, be less than
you currently anticipate. First, the actual yield you realize on the securities could be lower than you anticipate because
the coupon is “contingent” and you may not receive a contingent coupon payment on one or more, or any, of the contingent coupon
payment dates. Second, the contingent coupon payments are the compensation you receive not only for the downside risk of the
underlying shares, but also for all of the other risks of the securities, including the risk that the securities may be automatically
redeemed prior to maturity, interest rate risk and our and Citigroup Inc.’s credit risk. If those other risks increase
or are otherwise greater than you currently anticipate, the contingent coupon payments may turn out to be inadequate to compensate you
for all the risks of the securities, including the downside risk of the underlying shares. |
| § | The securities may be automatically redeemed prior to maturity, limiting your opportunity to receive contingent coupon payments. The
securities will be automatically redeemed prior to maturity if the closing price of the underlying shares on any interim valuation date
is greater than or equal to the initial share price. Thus, the term of the securities may be limited to as short as approximately one
month. If the securities are automatically redeemed prior to maturity, you will not receive any additional contingent coupon payments.
Moreover, you may not be able to reinvest your funds in another investment that provides a similar yield with a similar level of risk. |
Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. |
Autocallable Phoenix Securities Based on the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust Due June 24, 2026 |
|
| § | The securities offer downside exposure to the underlying shares, but no upside exposure to the underlying shares. You
will not participate in any appreciation in the price of the underlying shares over the term of the securities. Consequently,
your return on the securities will be limited to the contingent coupon payments you receive, if any, and may be significantly less than
the return on the underlying shares over the term of the securities. In addition, you will not receive any dividends or other distributions
or have any other rights with respect to the underlying shares over the term of the securities. |
| § | The performance of the securities will depend on the closing price of the underlying shares solely on the relevant valuation dates,
which makes the securities particularly sensitive to the volatility of the underlying shares. Whether any contingent coupons
will be paid prior to maturity and whether the securities will be automatically redeemed prior to maturity will depend on the closing
price of the underlying shares solely on the applicable interim valuation dates, regardless of the closing price of the underlying shares
on other days during the term of the securities. If the securities are not automatically redeemed, the amount you receive at
maturity will depend solely on the closing price of the underlying shares on the final valuation date and not on any other days during
the term of the securities. Because the performance of the securities depends on the closing price of the underlying shares
on a limited number of dates, the securities will be particularly sensitive to volatility in the closing price of the underlying shares. You
should understand that the underlying shares have historically been highly volatile. |
| § | You will have no rights and will not receive dividends with respect to the underlying shares. As
a holder of the securities, you will not have any ownership interest or rights in the underlying shares, such as voting rights or dividend
payments. The payment scenarios described in this pricing supplement do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the
securities. Additionally, if any change to the underlying shares is proposed, such as an amendment to the underlying share issuer’s
organizational documents, you will not have the right to vote on such change. Any such change may adversely affect the market
price of the underlying shares. |
| § | What you receive at maturity depends on the closing price of the underlying shares on a single day. Because what you receive
at maturity depends on the closing price of the underlying shares solely on the final valuation date, you are subject to the risk that
the closing price of the underlying shares on that day may be lower, and possibly significantly lower, than on one or more other dates
during the term of the securities. If you had invested directly in the underlying shares or in another instrument linked to the underlying
shares that you could sell for full value at a time selected by you, or if the payment at maturity were based on an average of closing
prices of the underlying shares, you might have achieved better returns. |
| § | The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If we default on
our obligations under the securities and Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive anything owed to you
under the securities. |
| § | The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity. The
securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. CGMI
currently intends to make a secondary market in relation to the securities and to provide an indicative bid price for the securities on
a daily basis. Any indicative bid price for the securities provided by CGMI will be determined in CGMI’s sole discretion,
taking into account prevailing market conditions and other relevant factors, and will not be a representation by CGMI that the securities
can be sold at that price, or at all. CGMI may suspend or terminate making a market and providing indicative bid prices without
notice, at any time and for any reason. If CGMI suspends or terminates making a market, there may be no secondary market at
all for the securities because it is likely that CGMI will be the only broker-dealer that is willing to buy your securities prior to maturity. Accordingly,
an investor must be prepared to hold the securities until maturity. |
| § | The estimated value of the securities on the pricing date, based on CGMI’s proprietary pricing models and our internal funding
rate, is less than the issue price. The difference is attributable to certain costs associated with selling, structuring
and hedging the securities that are included in the issue price. These costs include (i) the placement fees paid in connection
with the offering of the securities, (ii) hedging and other costs incurred by us and our affiliates in connection with the offering of
the securities and (iii) the expected profit (which may be more or less than actual profit) to CGMI or other of our affiliates in connection
with hedging our obligations under the securities. These costs adversely affect the economic terms of the securities because,
if they were lower, the economic terms of the securities would be more favorable to you. The economic terms of the securities
are also likely to be adversely affected by the use of our internal funding rate, rather than our secondary market rate, to price the
securities. See “The estimated value of the securities would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market
rate” below. |
| § | The estimated value of the securities was determined for us by our affiliate using proprietary pricing models. CGMI
derived the estimated value disclosed on the cover page of this pricing supplement from its proprietary pricing models. In
doing so, it may have made discretionary judgments about the inputs to its models, such as the volatility of the underlying shares, the
dividend yield on the underlying shares and the securities held by the underlying share issuer and interest rates. CGMI’s
views on these inputs may differ from your or others’ views, and as an underwriter in this offering, CGMI’s interests may
conflict with yours. Both the models and the inputs to the models may prove to be wrong and therefore not an accurate reflection
of the value of the securities. Moreover, the estimated value of the securities set forth on the cover page of this pricing
supplement may differ from the value that we or our affiliates may determine for the securities for other purposes, including for accounting
purposes. You should not invest in the securities because of the estimated value of the securities. Instead, you should be
willing to hold the securities to maturity irrespective of the initial estimated value. |
| § | The estimated value of the securities would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate. The
estimated value of the securities included in this pricing supplement is calculated based on our internal funding rate, which is the rate
at which we are willing to borrow funds through the issuance of the securities. Our internal funding rate is generally lower than |
Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. |
Autocallable Phoenix Securities Based on the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust Due June 24, 2026 |
|
| | our
secondary market rate, which is the rate that CGMI will use in determining the value of the securities for purposes of any purchases
of the securities from you in the secondary market. If the estimated value included in this pricing supplement were based on our secondary
market rate, rather than our internal funding rate, it would likely be lower. We determine our internal funding rate based on factors
such as the costs associated with the securities, which are generally higher than the costs associated with conventional debt securities,
and our liquidity needs and preferences. Our internal funding rate is not the same as the coupon that is payable on the securities. |
Because there is not an active market for
traded instruments referencing our outstanding debt obligations, CGMI determines our secondary market rate based on the market price of
traded instruments referencing the debt obligations of Citigroup Inc., our parent company and the guarantor of all payments due on the
securities, but subject to adjustments that CGMI makes in its sole discretion. As a result, our secondary market rate is not
a market-determined measure of our creditworthiness, but rather reflects the market’s perception of our parent company’s creditworthiness
as adjusted for discretionary factors such as CGMI’s preferences with respect to purchasing the securities prior to maturity.
| § | The estimated value of the securities is not an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be willing
to buy the securities from you in the secondary market. Any such secondary market price will fluctuate over the term of
the securities based on the market and other factors described in the next risk factor. Moreover, unlike the estimated value
included in this pricing supplement, any value of the securities determined for purposes of a secondary market transaction will be based
on our secondary market rate, which will likely result in a lower value for the securities than if our internal funding rate were used. In
addition, any secondary market price for the securities will be reduced by a bid-ask spread, which may vary depending on the aggregate
stated principal amount of the securities to be purchased in the secondary market transaction, and the expected cost of unwinding related
hedging transactions. As a result, it is likely that any secondary market price for the securities will be less than the issue
price. |
| § | The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors. The
value of your securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on the price and volatility of the underlying shares and a number of other
factors, including the price and volatility of the securities held by the underlying share issuer, the dividend yields on the underlying
shares and the securities held by the underlying share issuer, interest rates generally, the time remaining to maturity and our and Citigroup
Inc.’s creditworthiness, as reflected in our secondary market rate. Changes in the price of the underlying shares may not result
in a comparable change in the value of your securities. You should understand that the value of your securities at any time prior to maturity
may be significantly less than the issue price. |
| § | Immediately following issuance, any secondary market bid price provided by CGMI, and the value that will be indicated on any brokerage
account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates, will reflect a temporary upward adjustment. The amount of this temporary
upward adjustment will steadily decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period. See “Valuation of the Securities”
in this pricing supplement. |
| § | Our offering of the securities does not constitute a recommendation of the underlying shares by CGMI or its affiliates or by the
placement agents or their affiliates. The fact that we are offering the securities
does not mean that we believe, or that the placement agents or their affiliates believe, that investing in an instrument linked to the
underlying shares is likely to achieve favorable returns. In fact, as we and the placement agents are part of global financial institutions,
our affiliates and the placement agents and their affiliates may have positions (including short positions) in the underlying shares or
the securities held by the underlying share issuer or in instruments related to the underlying shares or such securities, and may publish
research or express opinions, that in each case are inconsistent with an investment linked to the underlying shares. These and other activities
of our affiliates or the placement agents or their affiliates may affect the price of the underlying shares in a way that has a negative
impact on your interests as a holder of the securities. |
| § | The price of the underlying shares may be adversely affected by our or our affiliates’ hedging and other trading activities. We
have hedged our obligations under the securities through CGMI or other of our affiliates, who have taken positions directly in the underlying
shares and other financial instruments related to the underlying shares and may adjust such positions during the term of the securities. Our
affiliates and the placement agents and their affiliates also trade the underlying shares and other financial instruments related to the
underlying shares on a regular basis (taking long or short positions or both), for their accounts, for other accounts under their management
or to facilitate transactions on behalf of customers. These activities could affect the price of the underlying shares in a
way that negatively affects the value of the securities. They could also result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates
or the placement agents or their affiliates while the value of the securities declines. |
| § | We and our affiliates or the placement agents or their affiliates may have economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result
of our affiliates’ or their business activities. Our affiliates or the placement agents or their affiliates may currently
or from time to time engage in business with the underlying share issuer, including extending loans to, making equity investments in or
providing advisory services to the underlying share issuer. In the course of this business, we or our affiliates or the placement
agents or their affiliates may acquire non-public information about the underlying share issuer, which we and they will not disclose to
you. Moreover, if any of our affiliates or the placement agents or their affiliates is or becomes a creditor of the underlying
share issuer, they may exercise any remedies against the underlying share issuer that are available to them without regard to your interests. |
| § | Even
if the underlying share issuer pays a dividend that it identifies as special or extraordinary, no adjustment will be required under the
securities for that dividend unless it meets the criteria specified in the accompanying product supplement. In general,
an adjustment will not be made under the terms of the securities for any cash dividend paid on the underlying shares unless the amount
of the dividend per underlying share, together with any other dividends paid in the same fiscal |
Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. |
Autocallable Phoenix Securities Based on the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust Due June 24, 2026 |
|
quarter, exceeds the dividend paid
per underlying share in the most recent fiscal quarter by an amount equal to at least 10% of the closing price of the underlying shares
on the date of declaration of the dividend. Any dividend will reduce the closing price of the underlying shares by the amount
of the dividend per underlying share. If the underlying share issuer pays any dividend for which an adjustment is not made
under the terms of the securities, holders of the securities will be adversely affected. See
“Description of the Securities— Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Dilution
and Reorganization Adjustments—Certain Extraordinary Cash Dividends” in the accompanying product supplement.
| § | The securities will not be adjusted for all events that could affect the price of the underlying shares. For example,
we will not make any adjustment for ordinary dividends or extraordinary dividends that do not meet the criteria described above. Moreover,
the adjustments we do make may not fully offset the dilutive or adverse effect of the particular event. Investors in the securities
may be adversely affected by such an event in a circumstance in which a direct holder of the underlying shares would not. |
| § | The securities may become linked to shares of an issuer other than the original underlying share issuer upon the occurrence of
a reorganization event or upon the delisting of the underlying shares. For example,
if the underlying share issuer enters into a merger agreement that provides for holders of the underlying shares to receive shares of
another entity, the shares of such other entity will become the underlying shares for all purposes of the securities upon consummation
of the merger. Additionally, if the underlying shares are delisted or the underlying share issuer is otherwise terminated,
the calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, select shares of another ETF to be the underlying shares. See “Description
of the Securities— Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF—Dilution and
Reorganization Adjustments” and “—Delisting, Liquidation or Termination of an Underlying ETF” in the accompanying
product supplement. |
| § | The price and performance of the underlying share issuer may not completely track the performance
of its underlying index or its net asset value per share. The underlying share issuer does not fully replicate the underlying
index that it seeks to track (the “ETF underlying index”) and may hold securities different from those included in the ETF
underlying index. In addition, the performance of the underlying share issuer reflect additional transaction costs and fees that are not
included in the calculation of its ETF underlying index. All of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation between the performance
of the underlying share issuer and its ETF underlying index. In addition, corporate actions with respect to the equity securities constituting
the underlying share issuer’s ETF underlying index or held by the underlying share issuer (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact
the variance between the performance of the underlying share issuer and its ETF underlying index. Finally, because the underlying shares
are traded on an exchange and are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of the underlying share issuer may differ
from its net asset value per share. |
During periods of market
volatility, securities underlying the underlying share issuer may be unavailable in the secondary market, market participants may be unable
to calculate accurately the net asset value per share of the underlying share issuer and the liquidity of the underlying share issuer
may be adversely affected. This kind of market volatility may also disrupt the ability of market participants to create and redeem shares
of the underlying share issuer. Further, market volatility may adversely affect, sometimes materially, the price at which market participants
are willing to buy and sell the underlying share issuer. As a result, under these circumstances, the market value of the underlying share
issuer may vary substantially from its net asset value per share. For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the underlying
share issuer might not correlate with the performance of its ETF underlying index and/or its net asset value per share, which could materially
and adversely affect the value of the securities in the secondary market and/or reduce your return on the securities.
| § | The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important determinations with respect to the securities. If
certain events occur, such as market disruption events, events with respect to the underlying share issuer that may require a dilution
adjustment or the delisting of the underlying shares, CGMI, as calculation agent, will be required to make discretionary judgments that
could significantly affect your return on the securities. In making these judgments, the calculation agent’s interests
as an affiliate of ours could be adverse to your interests as a holder of the securities. |
| § | Changes made by the investment adviser to the underlying share issuer or by the sponsor of
the ETF underlying index may adversely affect the underlying shares. We are not affiliated with the investment adviser to the underlying
share issuer or with the sponsor of the ETF underlying index. Accordingly, we have no control over any changes such investment adviser
or sponsor may make to the underlying share issuer or the ETF underlying index. Such changes could be made at any time and could adversely
affect the performance of the underlying shares. |
| § | The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities are unclear. There is no direct legal authority
regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the securities, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service
(the “IRS”). Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain, and the IRS
or a court might not agree with the treatment of the securities as described in “United States Federal Tax Considerations”
below. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment of the securities, the tax consequences of the ownership
and disposition of the securities might be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, future legislation, Treasury regulations
or IRS guidance could adversely affect the U.S. federal tax treatment of the securities, possibly retroactively. |
Non-U.S. investors should note that persons having withholding
responsibility in respect of the securities may withhold on any coupon payment paid to a non-U.S. investor, generally at a rate of 30%. To
the extent that we have withholding responsibility in respect of the securities, we intend to so withhold.
You should read carefully the discussion under “United
States Federal Tax Considerations” and “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” in the accompanying product supplement
and “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in this pricing supplement.

United States Federal Tax Considerations
You should read carefully the discussion under “United States
Federal Tax Considerations” and “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” in the accompanying product supplement and
“Summary Risk Factors” in this pricing supplement.
Due to the lack of any controlling legal authority, there is substantial
uncertainty regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities. In connection with any information
reporting requirements we may have in respect of the securities under applicable law, we intend (in the absence of an administrative determination
or judicial ruling to the contrary) to treat the securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid forward contracts with associated
coupon payments that will be treated as gross income to you at the time received or accrued in accordance with your regular method of
tax accounting. In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, which is based on current market conditions,
this treatment of the securities is reasonable under current law; however, our counsel has advised us that it is unable to conclude affirmatively
that this treatment is more likely than not to be upheld, and that alternative treatments are possible.
Assuming this treatment of the securities is respected and subject to
the discussion in “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement, the following U.S. federal
income tax consequences should result under current law:
| · | Any coupon payments on the securities should be taxable as ordinary income to you at the time received or accrued in accordance with
your regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. |
| · | Upon a sale or exchange of a security (including retirement at maturity), you should recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference
between the amount realized and your tax basis in the security. For this purpose, the amount realized does not include any
coupon paid on retirement and may not include sale proceeds attributable to an accrued coupon, which may be treated as a coupon payment. Such
gain or loss should be short-term capital gain or loss. |
We do not plan to request a ruling
from the IRS regarding the treatment of the securities. An alternative characterization of the securities could materially and adversely
affect the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the securities, including the timing and character of income recognized. In
addition, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS have requested comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment
of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar financial instruments and have indicated that such transactions may be the subject
of future regulations or other guidance. Furthermore, members of Congress have proposed legislative changes to the tax treatment of derivative
contracts. Any legislation, Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and
adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax
adviser regarding possible alternative tax treatments of the securities and potential changes in applicable law.
Withholding Tax on Non-U.S. Holders. Because significant aspects
of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain, persons having withholding responsibility in respect of the securities may withhold
on any coupon payment paid to Non-U.S. Holders (as defined in the accompanying product supplement), generally at a rate of 30%. To the
extent that we have (or an affiliate of ours has) withholding responsibility in respect of the securities, we intend to so withhold. In
order to claim an exemption from, or a reduction in, the 30% withholding, you may need to comply with certification requirements to establish
that you are not a U.S. person and are eligible for such an exemption or reduction under an applicable tax treaty. You should consult
your tax adviser regarding the tax treatment of the securities, including the possibility of obtaining a refund of any amounts withheld
and the certification requirement described above.
As discussed under “United
States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders” in the accompanying product supplement, Section 871(m)
of the Code and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally impose a 30% withholding tax on dividend
equivalents paid or deemed paid to Non-U.S. Holders with respect to certain financial instruments linked to U.S. equities (“U.S.
Underlying Equities”) or indices that include U.S. Underlying Equities. Section 871(m) generally applies to instruments
that substantially replicate the economic performance of one or more U.S. Underlying Equities, as determined based on tests set forth
in the applicable Treasury regulations. However, the regulations, as modified by an IRS notice, exempt financial instruments
issued prior to January 1, 2027 that do not have a “delta” of one. Based on the terms of the securities and representations
provided by us, our counsel is of the opinion that the securities should not be treated as transactions that have a “delta”
of one within the meaning of the regulations with respect to any U.S. Underlying Equity and, therefore, should not be subject to withholding
tax under Section 871(m).
A determination that the securities
are not subject to Section 871(m) is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this treatment. Moreover, Section
871(m) is complex and its application may depend on your particular circumstances, including your other transactions. You should
consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of Section 871(m) to the securities.
We will not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to
amounts withheld.
You should read the section entitled “United States Federal
Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement. The preceding discussion, when read in combination with that
section, constitutes the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of owning
and disposing of the securities.
You should also consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of
the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of an investment in the securities and any tax consequences arising under the laws
of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution
CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and the
underwriter of the sale of the securities, is acting as principal and will receive an underwriting fee of $1.00 for each security sold
in this offering. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. will act as placement agents for the securities
and, from the underwriting fee to CGMI, will receive a placement fee of $1.00 for each security they sell in this offering to accounts
other than fiduciary accounts. The amount of the underwriting fee to CGMI will be equal to the placement fee paid to the placement
agents. CGMI and the placement agents will forgo an underwriting fee and placement fee for sales to fiduciary accounts. In
addition to the underwriting fee, CGMI and its affiliates may profit from hedging activity related to this offering, even if the value
of the securities declines. See “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus. For the avoidance
of doubt, the fees and commissions described on the cover of this pricing supplement will not be rebated or subject to amortization if
the securities are automatically redeemed.
See “Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest” in the
accompanying product supplement and “Plan of Distribution” in each of the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus
for additional information.
Valuation of the Securities
CGMI calculated the estimated value of the securities set forth on the
cover page of this pricing supplement based on proprietary pricing models. CGMI’s proprietary pricing models generated an estimated
value for the securities by estimating the value of a hypothetical package of financial instruments that would replicate the payout on
the securities, which consists of a fixed-income bond (the “bond component”) and one or more derivative instruments underlying
the economic terms of the securities (the “derivative component”). CGMI calculated the estimated value of the bond component
using a discount rate based on our internal funding rate. CGMI calculated the estimated value of the derivative component based on a proprietary
derivative-pricing model, which generated a theoretical price for the instruments that constitute the derivative component based on various
inputs, including the factors described under “Summary Risk Factors—The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate
based on many unpredictable factors” in this pricing supplement, but not including our or Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness.
These inputs may be market-observable or may be based on assumptions made by CGMI in its discretionary judgment.
For a period of approximately six months following issuance of the securities,
the price, if any, at which CGMI would be willing to buy the securities from investors, and the value that will be indicated for the securities
on any brokerage account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates (which value CGMI may also publish through one or more financial
information vendors), will reflect a temporary upward adjustment from the price or value that would otherwise be determined. This temporary
upward adjustment represents a portion of the hedging profit expected to be realized by CGMI or its affiliates over the term of the securities.
The amount of this temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero on a straight-line basis over the six-month temporary adjustment period.
However, CGMI is not obligated to buy the securities from investors at any time. See “Summary Risk Factors—The securities
will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.”
Validity of the Securities
In the opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, as special products
counsel to Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., when the securities offered by this pricing supplement have been executed and issued
by Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the indenture, and delivered against payment therefor,
such securities and the related guarantee of Citigroup Inc. will be valid and binding obligations of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings
Inc. and Citigroup Inc., respectively, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency
and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability
(including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith), provided that such counsel expresses
no opinion as to the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the conclusions expressed
above. This opinion is given as of the date of this pricing supplement and is limited to the laws of the State of New York, except that
such counsel expresses no opinion as to the application of state securities or Blue Sky laws to the securities.
In giving this opinion, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP has assumed the
legal conclusions expressed in the opinions set forth below of Alexia Breuvart, Secretary and General Counsel of Citigroup Global Markets
Holdings Inc., and Karen Wang, Senior Vice President – Corporate Securities Issuance Legal of Citigroup Inc. In addition,
this opinion is subject to the assumptions set forth in the letter of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP dated February 14, 2024, which has
been filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Citigroup Inc. on February 14, 2024, that the indenture has been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by, and is a valid, binding and enforceable agreement of, the trustee and that none of the terms of
the securities nor the issuance and delivery of the securities and the related guarantee, nor the compliance by Citigroup Global Markets
Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. with the terms of the securities and the related guarantee respectively, will result in a violation of
any provision of any instrument or agreement then binding upon Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. or Citigroup Inc., as applicable,
or any restriction imposed by any court or governmental body having jurisdiction over Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. or Citigroup
