Citigroup
Global Markets Holdings Inc. $---- Airbag Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes with Memory Coupon Feature |
|
Linked to the Common Stock of Microsoft Corporation Due On or About
July 14, 2026
All payments due on the notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed
by Citigroup Inc. |
|
The Airbag Autocallable Contingent Yield Notes with Memory Coupon Feature (the “notes”) are unsecured, unsubordinated debt obligations of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. (the “issuer”), guaranteed by Citigroup Inc. (the “guarantor”), linked to the performance of the common stock of Microsoft Corporation (the “underlying”). The notes will pay a contingent coupon on each monthly coupon payment date (plus any previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates pursuant to the memory coupon feature) if, and only if, the closing price of the underlying on the related monthly valuation date is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier. If the closing price of the underlying on a monthly valuation date is less than the coupon barrier, no contingent coupon will be paid on the related coupon payment date. Beginning one month after issuance, if the closing price of the underlying on a monthly valuation date is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price, we will automatically call the notes and pay you the stated principal amount per note plus the contingent coupon for that valuation date and, pursuant to the memory coupon feature, any previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates, and no further amounts will be owed to you. At maturity, if the notes have not previously been automatically called, the amount you receive will depend on the final underlying price. If the final underlying price is greater than or equal to the conversion price, you will receive the stated principal amount of your notes at maturity (plus a final contingent coupon payment and, pursuant to the memory coupon feature, any previously unpaid contingent coupon payments from prior valuation dates if the final underlying price is also greater than or equal to the coupon barrier). However, if the notes have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the final underlying price is less than the conversion price, you will receive less than the stated principal amount of your notes, and possibly nothing, at maturity. If the final underlying price is below the specified conversion price, the issuer will deliver to you a number of shares of the underlying equal to the stated principal amount per note divided by the conversion price (the “share delivery amount”) (subject to adjustments, in the sole discretion of the calculation agent, in the case of certain corporate events described in this pricing supplement under “Additional Terms of the Notes—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments”). The “final underlying price” is the closing price of the underlying on the final valuation date. Investing in the notes involves significant risks. You may lose some or all of your initial investment if the notes are not called on any coupon payment date prior to the maturity date and the final underlying price is less than the conversion price. You will not receive dividends or other distributions paid on the underlying or participate in any appreciation of the underlying. The contingent repayment of the stated principal amount applies only if you hold the notes to maturity or earlier automatic call. Any payment on the notes, including any repayment of the stated principal amount, is subject to the creditworthiness of the issuer and the guarantor and is not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. If the issuer and the guarantor were to default on their payment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment. |
Features |
|
Key Dates1 |
q |
Contingent Coupon — We will pay you a contingent coupon on each monthly coupon payment date (plus any previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates pursuant to the memory coupon feature) if, and only if, the closing price of the underlying on the related valuation date is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier, unless the notes have been previously called. Otherwise, no contingent coupon will be paid for that month. |
q |
Automatic Call — Beginning approximately one month after issuance, we will automatically call the notes and pay you the stated principal amount per note plus the final contingent coupon payment and, pursuant to the memory coupon feature, any previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates if the closing price of the underlying on any monthly valuation date is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price. If the notes are not automatically called, investors may have full downside market exposure to the underlying at maturity. |
q |
Downside Exposure with Contingent Repayment of Principal at Maturity — If the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity and the final underlying price is greater than or equal to the conversion price, you will receive the stated principal amount of your notes at maturity (plus the final contingent coupon payment and, pursuant to the memory coupon feature, any previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates if the final underlying price of the underlying is also greater than or equal to the coupon barrier). However, if the notes have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the final underlying price is less than the conversion price, the issuer will deliver to you a number of shares of the underlying equal to the share delivery amount at maturity which will likely be worth less than your stated principal amount and may have no value at all. In this case, you will be exposed to the downside performance of the underlying beyond the conversion price at a rate greater than 1-for-1. |
|
Any payment on the notes is subject to the creditworthiness of the issuer and guarantor. If the issuer and the guarantor were to default on their obligations, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the notes and you could lose your entire investment. |

NOTICE TO INVESTORS: The
notes are significantly riskier than conventional debt INSTRUMENTS. THE ISSUER IS NOT NECESSARILY OBLIGATED TO REPAY THE STATED PRINCIPAL
AMOUNT OF THE NOTES AT MATURITY, AND the notes CAN have THE full downside MARKET risk of the underlying. This MARKET risk is
in addition to the CREDIT risk INHERENT IN PURCHASING A DEBT OBLIGATION OF CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS HOLDINGS INC. THAT IS GUARANTEED BY
CITIGROUP INC. You should not PURCHASE the notes if you do not understand or are not comfortable with the significant risks
INVOLVED in INVESTING IN the notes.

RISK FACTORS’’ BEGINNING ON PAGE PS-7 OF THIS PRICING SUPPLEMENT AND UNDER ‘‘RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE SECURITIES’’

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET VALUE OF, AND THE RETURN ON, YOUR NOTES. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INITIAL
INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES. THE NOTES WILL NOT BE LISTED ON ANY SECURITIES EXCHANGE AND MAY HAVE LIMITED OR NO LIQUIDITY. |

note, which will be less than the issue price. The estimated value of the notes is based on proprietary pricing models of Citigroup Global
Markets Inc. (“CGMI”) and our internal funding rate. It is not an indication of actual profit to CGMI or other of
our affiliates, nor is it an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be willing to buy the notes from
you at any time after issuance. See “Valuation of the Notes” in this pricing supplement.
(2) The
underwriting discount is $10.00 per note. CGMI, acting as principal, expects to purchase from Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.,
and Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. expects to sell to CGMI, the aggregate stated principal amount of the notes set forth above
for $9,990.00 per note. UBS Financial Services Inc. (“UBS”), acting as agent for sales of the notes, expects to purchase
from CGMI, and CGMI expects to sell to UBS, all of the notes for $9,990.00 per note. UBS will receive an underwriting discount of $10.00
per note for each note it sells in this offering. UBS proposes to offer the notes to the public at a price of $10,000.00 per note. For
additional information on the distribution of the notes, see “Supplemental Plan of Distribution” in this pricing supplement.
In addition to the underwriting discount, CGMI and its affiliates may profit from expected hedging activity related to this offering,
even if the value of the notes declines. See “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus.

you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers before deciding to invest in the notes.
The suitability considerations identified below are not exhaustive. Whether
or not the notes are a suitable investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you should reach an investment decision

Automatic call feature |
The notes will be automatically called if the closing price
of the underlying on any valuation date occurring on or after August 11, 2025 is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price.
If the notes are automatically called, we will pay you on
the applicable coupon payment date a cash payment per $10,000.00 stated principal amount of each note equal to the stated principal amount
per note plus the contingent coupon for the applicable valuation date and, pursuant to the memory coupon feature, any previously unpaid
contingent coupons from prior valuation dates.
After the notes are automatically called, no further payments
will be made on the notes.
|
Valuation dates1, 2 |
See “Valuation Dates/Coupon Payment Dates for the Offering of the Notes” on page PS-6. |
Coupon payment dates |
Two (2) business days following the applicable valuation date, except that the coupon payment date for the final valuation date is the maturity date. See “Valuation Dates/Coupon Payment Dates for the Offering of the Notes” on page PS-6. |
Contingent coupon/contingent coupon rate |
If the closing price of the underlying on a monthly valuation
date is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier, we will make a contingent coupon payment with respect to that valuation date (plus
any previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates pursuant to the memory coupon feature) on the related coupon payment
date.
However, if the closing price of the underlying on a monthly
valuation date is below the coupon barrier, no contingent coupon will be payable on the related coupon payment date.
Each contingent coupon payment will be in the amount of
$119.17 for each $10,000.00 stated principal amount note (based on the per annum contingent coupon rate of approximately 14.30%)
and will be payable with respect to each valuation date on which the closing price of the underlying is greater than or equal to the
coupon barrier.
|
|
Contingent coupon payments on the notes are not guaranteed. We will not pay you a contingent coupon (including any previously unpaid contingent coupons) on a coupon payment date if the closing price of the underlying on the related valuation date is less than the coupon barrier. |
Memory coupon feature |
If the contingent coupon is not paid on any coupon payment
date (because the closing price of the underlying on any valuation date is less than the coupon barrier), such unpaid contingent coupon
will be paid on a later coupon payment date but only if the closing price of the underlying on the related later valuation date is greater
than or equal to the coupon barrier; provided, however, in the case of any such payment of a previously unpaid contingent coupon,
that no additional interest shall accrue or be payable in respect of such unpaid contingent coupon from and after the end of the original
interest period for such unpaid contingent coupon. You will not receive such unpaid contingent coupons if the closing price of the underlying
is less than the coupon barrier on each subsequent valuation date.
|
Payment at maturity (per $10,000.00 stated principal amount of notes)4 |
If the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity and the
final underlying price is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier and the conversion price, we will pay you the $10,000.00 stated
principal amount plus the contingent coupon with respect to the final valuation date and, pursuant to the memory coupon feature, any previously
unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates.
If the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity and the
final underlying price is less than the conversion price, at maturity we will deliver to you a number of shares of the underlying
equal to the share delivery amount (subject to adjustments).
The value of shares delivered for the share delivery amount is
expected to be worth less than the stated principal amount of your notes and may be worthless.

INVESTING IN THE NOTES INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT RISKS. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INITIAL INVESTMENT. YOU MAY RECEIVE SHARES AT MATURITY THAT ARE WORTH LESS THAN YOUR STATED PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OR THAT MAY HAVE NO VALUE AT ALL. THE CONTINGENT REPAYMENT OF THE STATED PRINCIPAL AMOUNT APPLIES ONLY IF YOU HOLD THE NOTES TO MATURITY. ANY PAYMENT ON THE NOTES IS SUBJECT TO THE CREDITWORTHINESS OF THE ISSUER AND THE GUARANTOR. IF CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS HOLDINGS INC. AND CITIGROUP INC. WERE TO DEFAULT ON THEIR OBLIGATIONS, YOU MIGHT NOT RECEIVE ANY AMOUNTS OWED TO YOU UNDER THE NOTES AND YOU COULD LOSE YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. |

|
|
Monthly (autocallable after one month) |
|
If the closing price of the underlying on any monthly valuation
date is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier, we will pay you a contingent coupon (plus any previously unpaid contingent coupons
from prior valuation dates pursuant to the memory coupon feature) on the related coupon payment date. However, if the closing
price of the underlying on any monthly valuation date is below the coupon barrier, no contingent coupon will be payable on the related
coupon payment date.
The notes will be automatically called if the closing price
of the underlying on any valuation date (beginning one month after issuance) is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price.
If the notes are automatically called on any valuation date,
we will pay you on the applicable coupon payment date a cash payment per $10,000.00 stated principal amount of each note equal to the stated
principal amount per note plus the applicable contingent coupon on the related coupon payment date and, pursuant to the memory coupon
feature, any previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates.
After the notes are automatically called, no further payments
will be made on the notes.

|
|
Maturity date (if not previously automatically called) |
|
If the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity,
the final underlying price is observed on the final valuation date.
If the notes are not called prior to maturity and the final
underlying price is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier and the conversion price, we will pay you the $10,000.00 stated principal
amount plus the contingent coupon with respect to the final valuation date and, pursuant to the memory coupon feature, any previously
unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates.
If the notes are not automatically called prior to maturity
and the final underlying price is less than the coupon barrier and the conversion price, we will deliver to you a number of shares of
the underlying (and cash in lieu of any fractional share) equal to the share delivery amount for each note you own.
Accordingly, you may lose all or a substantial portion of your
stated principal amount at maturity, depending on how significantly the underlying declines.

1 Subject to postponement as described under “Additional
Terms of the Notes—Consequences of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement of a Valuation Date” in this pricing supplement.
If any coupon payment date is not a business day, then the coupon payment
to be made on that coupon payment date will be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on that
coupon payment date, and no additional interest will accrue as a result of such delayed payment.
Each coupon payment will be payable to the holders of record of the
notes at the close of business on the date that is one business day prior to the applicable coupon payment date (each such day, a “Regular
Record Date”), except that the contingent coupon payment due upon early automatic call or at maturity will be payable to the persons
who receive cash or shares of the underlying, as applicable, upon such early automatic call or at maturity, as applicable.
If any valuation date (other than the final valuation date) is postponed,
the related coupon payment date will be the second business day after such valuation date as postponed.
An investment in the notes is significantly riskier than an investment
in conventional debt securities. The notes 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
notes, and are also subject to risks associated with the underlying. Accordingly, the notes are suitable only for investors
who are capable of understanding the complexities and risks of the notes. You should consult your own financial, tax and legal
advisers as to the risks of an investment in the notes and the suitability of the notes in light of your particular circumstances.
The following is a summary of certain key risk factors for investors
in the notes. You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of risks relating to an investment in
the notes 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 notes do not provide for the repayment of the stated principal amount at maturity in all circumstances. If
the notes have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the final underlying price is less than the conversion price, you will
not be repaid the stated principal amount of your notes at maturity and, instead, will receive a number of shares of the underlying equal
to the share delivery amount. As a result, investors will be exposed to any further depreciation of the shares of the underlying
that may occur between the final valuation date and the maturity date. These shares will be worth less than the stated principal amount
per note and may be worth nothing. You should not invest in the notes if you are unwilling or unable to bear the risk of losing
the entire stated principal amount of your notes. |
At
maturity, if the final underlying price of the underlying is less than the conversion price, you will have similar downside market risk
as a purchaser of the underlying at the conversion price (except that you will not receive any dividends). This will result in a smaller
loss on the notes (disregarding dividends) than would be incurred by a purchaser of the underlying at the initial underlying price, unless
the final underlying price is zero. However, you will be exposed at an increased rate to the decline in the price of the underlying below
the conversion price, with a loss on the notes of more than 1% for each additional 1% of the initial underlying price by which the final
underlying price is less than the conversion price. Therefore, the lower the final underlying price, the closer your loss of principal
will be to the percentage decline of the underlying from the initial underlying price. For example, if the conversion price were equal
to 90% of the initial underlying price (the actual conversion price is set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement) and the
initial underlying price were $100, then the share delivery amount that would be delivered at maturity if the final underlying price
is below the conversion price would be equal to approximately 111.11 shares per $10,000 note ($10,000 divided by the $90 conversion price).
If the final underlying price was $60 (40% less than the initial underlying price), the value of that share delivery amount on the final
valuation date would be approximately $6,666.67 per note (approximately 111.11 shares times $60). If you had purchased shares at the
initial underlying price, you would have 100 shares worth $6,000 on the final valuation date, a difference of approximately $666.67 compared
with the value of the share delivery amount. However, if the final underlying price was $30 (70% less than the initial underlying price),
the value of the share delivery amount on the final valuation date would be approximately $3,333.33 per note (approximately 111.11 shares
times $30). If you had purchased shares at the initial underlying price, you would have 100 shares worth $3,000 on the final valuation
date, a difference of only approximately $333.33 compared with the value of the share delivery amount. If the final underlying price
was $0 (100% less than the initial underlying price), the value of the share delivery amount on the final valuation date would be $0,
the same as if you had purchased shares at the initial underlying price, and you would lose the entire stated principal amount of your
notes.
| ¨ | You will not receive any contingent coupon payment for any month in which the closing price of the underlying on the related valuation
date is less than the coupon barrier — A contingent coupon payment will be paid on a coupon payment date if and only if the
closing price of the underlying on the related valuation date is greater than or equal to the coupon barrier. If the closing price of
the underlying on any valuation date is less than the coupon barrier, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related
coupon payment date. If the closing price of the underlying is below the coupon barrier on each valuation date, you will not receive any
contingent coupon payments over the term of the notes. If the contingent coupon is not paid on any coupon payment date because the closing
price of the underlying on the related valuation date is less than the coupon barrier, such unpaid contingent coupon will be paid on a
later coupon payment date but only if the closing price of the underlying on such later valuation date is greater than or equal to the
coupon barrier. Therefore, you will not receive such unpaid contingent coupon if the closing price of the underlying on each subsequent
valuation date is less than the coupon barrier. |
| ¨ | Higher contingent coupon rates are associated with greater risk — The notes 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 strike date for the notes, including
the risks that you may not receive a contingent coupon payment on one or more, or any, coupon payment dates, the notes will not be automatically
called and the amount you receive at maturity may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of your notes and may be zero.
The volatility of the underlying is an important factor affecting these risks. Greater expected volatility of the underlying as of the
trade date may result in a higher contingent coupon rate, but would also represent a greater expected likelihood as of the trade date
that (i) the closing price of the underlying on one or more valuation dates will be less than the coupon barrier, such that you will not
receive one or more, or any, contingent coupon payments during the term of the notes, (ii) the closing price of the underlying on each
valuation date will be less than the initial underlying price, such that the notes are not automatically called, and (iii) the final underlying
price will be less than the conversion price, such that you will not be repaid the stated principal amount of your notes at maturity. |
| ¨ | The initial underlying price, set on the strike date, may be higher than the closing price of the underlying on the trade date
— If the closing price of the underlying on the trade date is less than the initial underlying price set on the strike date, the
terms of the notes may be less favorable to you than the terms of an alternative investment that may be available to you that offers a
similar payout as the notes but with the initial underlying price set on the trade date. |
| ¨ | You may not be adequately compensated for assuming the downside risk of the underlying — The potential contingent coupon
payments on the notes are the compensation you receive for assuming the downside risk of the underlying, as well as all the other risks
of the notes. That compensation is effectively “at risk” and may, therefore, be less than you currently anticipate. First,
the actual yield you realize on the notes 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 coupon payment dates. Second, the contingent coupon payments are
the compensation you receive not only for the downside risk of the underlying, but also for all of the other risks of the notes, including
the risk that the notes may be called 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 notes, including the downside risk of the underlying. |
| ¨ | The notes offer downside exposure to the underlying, but no upside exposure to the underlying — You will not participate
in any appreciation in the price of the underlying over the term of the notes. Consequently, your return on the notes will be limited
to the contingent coupon payments you receive, if any, and may be significantly less than the return on the underlying over the term of
the notes. In addition, you will not receive any dividends or other distributions or have any other rights with respect to the underlying. |
| ¨ | The performance of the notes will depend on the closing price of the underlying solely on the relevant valuation dates, which makes
the notes particularly sensitive to the volatility of the underlying — Whether the contingent coupon will be paid for any given
month will depend on the closing price of the underlying solely on the applicable monthly valuation dates, regardless of the closing price
of the underlying on other days during the term of the notes. If the notes are not automatically called, what you receive at maturity
will depend solely on the closing price of the underlying on the final valuation date, and not on any other day during the term of the
notes. Because the performance of the notes depends on the closing price of the underlying on a limited number of dates, the notes will
be particularly sensitive to volatility in the closing price of the underlying. You should understand that the underlying has historically
been highly volatile. |
| ¨ | Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in the underlying — You
will not have voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the underlying. It
is important to understand that, for purposes of measuring the performance of the underlying, the price used will not reflect the receipt
or reinvestment of dividends or distributions on the underlying. Dividend or distribution yield on the underlying would be
expected to represent a significant portion of the overall return on a direct investment in the underlying, but will not be reflected
in the performance of the underlying as measured for purposes of the notes (except to the extent that dividends and distributions reduce
the price of the underlying). |
| ¨ | The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. — Any payment on
the notes will be made by Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and is guaranteed by Citigroup Inc., and therefore is subject to the
credit risk of both Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If we default on our obligations under the notes and Citigroup
Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive any payments that become due under the notes. As a result,
the value of the notes prior to maturity will be affected by changes in the market’s view of our and Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness. Any
decline, or anticipated decline, in either of our or Citigroup Inc.’s credit ratings or increase, or anticipated increase, in the
credit spreads charged by the market for taking either of our or Citigroup Inc.’s credit risk is likely to adversely affect the
value of the notes. |
| ¨ | The notes may be automatically called prior to maturity — Beginning one month after issuance, on any valuation date occurring
monthly during the term of the notes, the notes will be automatically called if the closing price of the underlying on that valuation
date is greater than or equal to the initial underlying price. Thus, the term of the notes may be limited to as short as one month. If
the notes are automatically called prior to maturity, you may not be able to reinvest your funds in another investment that provides a
similar yield with a similar level of risk. Generally, the longer the notes are outstanding, the less likely it is that they will be automatically
called due to the decline in the price of the underlying and the shorter time remaining for the price of the underlying to recover. |
| ¨ | The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity — The
notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the notes. CGMI
currently intends to make a secondary market in relation to the notes and to provide an indicative bid price for the notes on a daily
basis. Any indicative bid price for the notes 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 notes 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 notes because it is likely
that CGMI will be the only broker-dealer that is willing to buy your notes prior to maturity. Accordingly, an investor must
be prepared to hold the notes until maturity. |
| ¨ | The probability that the underlying will fall below the coupon barrier on any valuation date or the conversion price on the final
valuation date will depend in part on the volatility of the underlying — “Volatility” refers to the frequency and
magnitude of changes in the price of the underlying. In general, the greater the volatility of the underlying, the greater
the probability that the underlying will experience a large decline over the term of the notes and fall below the coupon barrier on one,
or more, monthly valuation dates and/or the conversion price on the final valuation date. The underlying has historically experienced
significant volatility. As a result, there is a significant risk that the underlying will fall below the coupon barrier on
one or more valuation dates, such that you will not receive one or more contingent coupon payments, and that the underlying will fall
below the conversion price on the final |
valuation date, such that you will incur
a significant loss on your investment in the notes. The terms of the notes are set, in part, based on expectations about the
volatility of the underlying as of the trade date. If expectations about the volatility of the underlying change over the term
of the notes, the value of the notes may be adversely affected, and if the actual volatility of the underlying proves to be greater than
initially expected, the notes may prove to be riskier than expected on the trade date.
| ¨ | The estimated value of the notes on the trade date, based on CGMI’s proprietary pricing models and our internal funding rate,
will be less than the issue price — The difference is attributable to certain costs associated with selling, structuring and
hedging the notes that are included in the issue price. These costs include (i) the underwriting discount paid in connection
with the offering of the notes, (ii) hedging and other costs incurred by us and our affiliates in connection with the offering of the
notes 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 notes. These costs adversely affect the economic terms of the notes because, if they were
lower, the economic terms of the notes would be more favorable to you. The economic terms of the notes are also likely to be
adversely affected by the use of our internal funding rate, rather than our secondary market rate, to price the notes. See
“The estimated value of the notes would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate” below. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of the notes 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, the dividend yield
on the underlying 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 notes. Moreover, the estimated value of the notes set
forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement may differ from the value that we or our affiliates may determine for the notes for
other purposes, including for accounting purposes. You should not invest in the notes because of the estimated value of the
notes. Instead, you should be willing to hold the notes to maturity irrespective of the initial estimated value. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of the notes would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate — The estimated
value of the notes 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 notes. Our internal funding rate is generally lower than our secondary
market rate, which is the rate that CGMI will use in determining the value of the notes for purposes of any purchases of the notes 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 notes, 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 contingent coupon rate that is payable
on the notes. |
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
notes, 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 notes prior to maturity.
| ¨ | The estimated value of the notes is not an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be willing to
buy the notes from you in the secondary market — Any such secondary market price will fluctuate over the term of the notes 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 notes 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 notes than if our internal funding rate were used. In addition, any secondary
market price for the notes will be reduced by a bid-ask spread, which may vary depending on the aggregate stated principal amount of the
notes 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 notes will be less than the issue price. |
| ¨ | The value of the notes prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors — As described under “Valuation
of the Notes” below, the payout on the notes could be replicated by a hypothetical package of financial instruments consisting of
a fixed-income bond and one or more derivative instruments. As a result, the factors that influence the values of fixed-income
bonds and derivative instruments will also influence the terms of the notes at issuance and the value of the notes prior to maturity. Accordingly,
the value of your notes prior to maturity will fluctuate based on the price and volatility of the underlying and a number of other factors,
including the dividend yield on the underlying, 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 may not result in a comparable
change in the value of your notes. You should understand that the value of your notes at any time prior to maturity may be
significantly less than the issue price. The stated payout from the issuer only applies if you hold the notes to maturity or earlier automatic
call, as applicable. |
| ¨ | 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 decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period. See “Valuation of the Notes” in this
pricing supplement. |
| ¨ | Our offering of the notes is not a recommendation of the underlying — The fact that we are offering the notes does not
mean that we believe that investing in an instrument linked to the underlying is likely to achieve favorable returns. In fact, as we are
part of a global financial institution, our affiliates may have positions (including short positions) in the underlying or in instruments
related to the underlying, and may publish research or express opinions, that in each case are inconsistent with an investment linked
to the underlying. These and other activities of our affiliates may affect the price of the underlying in a way that has a negative impact
on your interests as a holder of the notes. |
| ¨ | Single equity risk — The return on the notes, which may be negative, is directly linked to the performance of the underlying.
The price of the underlying can rise or fall sharply due to factors specific to that underlying and the underlying issuer, such as stock
price volatility, earnings, financial conditions, corporate, industry and regulatory developments, management changes and decisions and
other events, as well as general stock market volatility and levels, interest rates and economic and political conditions. You, as an
investor in the notes, should make your own investigation into the underlying issuer and the underlying. For additional information regarding
the underlying issuer, please see the section “Microsoft Corporation” in this pricing supplement and the underlying issuer’s
SEC filings referred to in that section. We urge you to review financial and other information filed periodically by the underlying issuer
with the SEC. |
| ¨ | Our affiliates, or UBS or its affiliates, may publish research, express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent
with investing in or holding the notes — Any such research, opinions or recommendations could affect the closing price of the
underlying and the value of the notes. Our affiliates, and UBS and its affiliates, publish research from time to time on financial
markets and other matters that may influence the value of the notes, or express opinions or provide recommendations that may be inconsistent
with purchasing or holding the notes. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by our affiliates or by UBS or its
affiliates may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. These and other activities
of our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may adversely affect the price of the underlying and may have a negative impact on your interests
as a holder of the notes. Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the notes
and the underlying to which the notes are linked. |
| ¨ | You will have no rights against the underlying issuer, and you will not receive dividends on the underlying, unless and until you
receive shares of the underlying at maturity — As a holder of the notes, you will not be entitled to any rights with respect
to the underlying or the underlying issuer, including voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on the
underlying, but you will be subject to all changes affecting the underlying. The underlying issuer is not involved in the offering of
the notes in any way, and the underlying issuer does not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of notes. |
For example, in the event that an amendment
is proposed to the underlying issuer's certificate of incorporation or by-laws requiring stockholder approval and the record date for
determining the stockholders of record entitled to vote on the amendment occurs prior to the date you receive shares of the underlying
(if at all), you will not be entitled to vote on the amendment, even though you will nevertheless be subject to any changes in the powers,
preferences or special rights of the underlying in the event you receive shares of the underlying at maturity. Any such change
to the shares of the underlying may adversely affect their price, which will adversely affect the value of the notes and increase the
likelihood that you lose money on your investment.
| ¨ | We have no affiliation with the underlying issuer and are not responsible for its public disclosures — We are not affiliated
with the underlying issuer, and the underlying issuer is not involved in this offering of the notes in any way. Consequently,
we have no control over the actions of the underlying issuer, including any corporate actions of the type that would require the calculation
agent to adjust the terms of the notes. The underlying issuer does not have any obligation to consider your interests as an
investor in the notes in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of your notes. None of the money you pay
for the notes will go to the underlying issuer. |
In addition, as we are not affiliated with
the underlying issuer, we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or adequacy of any information about the underlying or the
underlying issuer contained in the underlying issuer’s public disclosures. We have made no “due diligence”
or other investigation into the underlying issuer. As an investor in the notes, you should make your own investigation into
the underlying issuer.
| ¨ | The notes will not be adjusted for all events that could affect the price of the underlying — Certain events may occur
during the term of the notes that have a dilutive effect on the value of the underlying or otherwise adversely affect the price of the
underlying. The calculation agent will make certain adjustments for some of these events, as described under “Additional
Terms of the Notes—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments.” However, an adjustment will not be made for all events
that could have a dilutive or adverse effect on the underlying or its price, such as ordinary dividends, share repurchases, partial tender
offers or additional public offerings of shares of the underlying by the underlying Issuer, and the adjustments that are made may not
fully offset the dilutive or adverse effect of the particular event. Accordingly, the occurrence of any event that has a dilutive
or adverse effect on the underlying may make it more likely that the closing price of the underlying declines below the conversion price
on the final valuation date, and in that case, reduce the value of the underlying that you would receive at maturity. Unlike
an investor in the notes, a direct holder of shares of the underlying may receive an offsetting benefit from any such event that may not
be reflected in an adjustment to the terms of the notes, and so you may experience dilution or adverse consequences in a circumstance
in which a direct holder of the underlying would not. |
| ¨ | If the underlying is delisted, we may call the notes prior to maturity for an amount that may be less than the principal amount
— If the underlying is delisted from its exchange (other than in connection with a reorganization event) and not then or immediately
thereafter listed on a U.S. national securities exchange, we will have the right to call the notes prior to the maturity date. If
we exercise this call right, you will receive the amount described below under “Additional Terms of the Notes—Delisting of
the Underlying.” This amount may be less, and possibly significantly less, than the stated principal amount of the notes. |
| ¨ | The notes may become linked to shares of an issuer other than the original underlying issuer upon the occurrence of a reorganization
event or upon the delisting of the underlying — For example, if the underlying issuer enters into a merger |
agreement that provides for holders of
the underlying to receive stock of another entity, the stock of such other entity will become the underlying for all purposes of the notes
upon consummation of the merger. Additionally, if the underlying is delisted and we do not exercise our call right, the calculation agent
may, in its sole discretion, select shares of another issuer to be the underlying. See “Additional Terms of the Notes
—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” and “Additional Terms of the Notes—Delisting of the Underlying.”
| ¨ | Trading and other transactions by our affiliates, or by UBS or its affiliates, in the equity and
equity derivative markets may impair the value of the notes — We expect to hedge our exposure under the notes through CGMI or
other of our affiliates, who will likely enter into equity and/or equity derivative transactions, such as over-the-counter options or
exchange-traded instruments, relating to the underlying and other financial instruments related to the underlying and may adjust such
positions during the term of the notes. It is possible that our affiliates could receive substantial returns from these hedging
activities while the value of the notes declines. Our affiliates and UBS and its affiliates may also engage in trading in the
underlying or instruments linked to the underlying on a regular basis as part of their respective general broker-dealer and other businesses,
for proprietary accounts, for other accounts under management or to facilitate transactions for customers, including block transactions. Such
trading and hedging activities may affect the closing price of the underlying and reduce the return on your investment in the notes. Our
affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may also issue or underwrite other securities or financial or derivative instruments with returns
linked or related to the underlying. By introducing competing products into the marketplace in this manner, our affiliates
or UBS or its affiliates could adversely affect the value of the notes. Any of the foregoing activities described in this paragraph
may reflect trading strategies that differ from, or are in direct opposition to, investors’ trading and investment strategies relating
to the notes. |
| ¨ | Our affiliates, or UBS or its affiliates, may have economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result of their respective
business activities — Our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may currently or from time to time engage in business with the
underlying issuer, including extending loans to, making equity investments in or providing advisory services to the underlying issuer.
In the course of this business, our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may acquire non-public information about the underlying issuer,
which they will not disclose to you. Moreover, if any of our affiliates or UBS or any of its affiliates is or becomes a creditor of the
underlying issuer, they may exercise any remedies against that issuer that are available to them without regard to your interests. |
| t | The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important
determinations with respect to the notes — If
certain events occur, such as market disruption events, corporate events with respect to the underlying that may require a dilution adjustment
or the delisting of the underlying, CGMI, as calculation agent, will be required to make discretionary judgments that could significantly
affect the return on the notes. Such judgments could include, among other things, any price required to be determined under the notes. In
addition, if certain events occur, CGMI will be required to make certain discretionary judgments that could significantly affect the return
on the notes. Such judgments could include, among other things: |
| t | determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred; |
| t | if a Market Disruption Event occurs on any Valuation Date, determining whether
to postpone such Valuation Date, as described under “Additional Terms of the Notes—Consequences of a Market Disruption Event;
Postponement of a Valuation Date”; |
| t | determining the closing price of the underlying if the price is not otherwise
available or a Market Disruption Event has occurred; |
| t | determining the appropriate adjustments to be made to the Share Delivery Amount,
Initial Underlying Price and conversion price upon the occurrence of an event described under “Additional Terms of the Notes—Dilution
and Reorganization Adjustments”; and |
| t | if the underlying is delisted and we do not exercise
our call right, determining whether to select Successor Shares and, if so, determining which shares to select as Successor Shares (see
“Additional Terms of the Notes—Delisting of the Underlying”). |
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 notes.
| ¨ | The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes are unclear — There is no direct legal authority regarding
the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the notes, 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 notes are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the
notes as described in “United States Federal Tax Considerations” below. If the IRS were successful in asserting
an alternative treatment of the notes, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the notes 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 notes, possibly retroactively. |
Non-U.S. investors should note that persons
having withholding responsibility in respect of the notes 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 notes, 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. You should also consult
your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes, as well as tax consequences arising under
the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
Hypothetical terms only. Actual terms may vary.
See the cover page for actual offering terms.
The examples below illustrate the hypothetical payment upon automatic
call or at maturity for a $10,000.00 stated principal amount note with the following assumptions* (the actual terms of the notes are listed
on the cover page of this pricing supplement; amounts may have been rounded for ease of reference):
| t | Stated Principal Amount: $10,000 |
| t | Term: 1 year, unless earlier automatically called |
| t | Hypothetical Initial Underlying Price: $100.00 |
| t | Contingent Coupon Rate: Approximately 14.30% per annum (or 1.1917% per month) with memory coupon feature |
| t | Monthly Contingent Coupon Payment: $119.17 per month per note |
| t | Valuation Dates: Monthly, automatically callable after approximately one month, as set forth on page PS-6 of this pricing supplement |
| t | Hypothetical Coupon Barrier: $90.00, which is 90% of its hypothetical initial underlying price |
| t | Hypothetical Conversion Price: $90.00 which is 90% of its hypothetical initial underlying price |
| t | Hypothetical Share Delivery Amount: 111.11111 shares per note ($10,000.00/$90.00) |
*The examples below are based
on the above hypothetical values and do not reflect the actual initial underlying price, coupon barrier or conversion price. For the actual
initial underlying price, coupon barrier and conversion price, see the cover page of this pricing supplement. We have used these hypothetical
values, rather than the actual values, to simplify the calculations and aid understanding of how the notes work. However, you should understand
that any actual payments on the notes will be calculated based on the actual initial underlying price, coupon barrier and conversion price,
and not on the hypothetical values indicated above.
Example 1 — Notes are automatically called on the first valuation
date.
Date |
Closing Price of the Underlying |
Payment (per note) |
First Valuation Date |
$120.00 (at or above coupon barrier and initial underlying price) |
$10,119.17 (settlement amount) |
|
|
Total Payment: |
$10,119.17 (1.1917% total return) |
|
|
|
|
On the first valuation date (which is approximately one month after
the trade date), the underlying closes above the initial underlying price, and the notes are automatically called on the related coupon
payment date. You will receive on the coupon payment date a total of $10,119.17 per note, reflecting the $10,000.00 stated principal amount
plus the applicable contingent coupon. In this example, you would have been paid a total of $10,119.17 per note for a 1.1917% total
return on the notes. No further amount would be owed to you under the notes, and you would not participate in the appreciation of the
underlying.
Example 2 — Notes are automatically called on the third valuation
date.
Date |
Closing Price of the Underlying |
Payment (per note) |

Since the notes are automatically called on the third valuation date,
on the related coupon payment date you would receive $10,238.34 per note, reflecting the $10,000.00 stated principal amount plus
the applicable contingent coupon for the third valuation date and the previously unpaid contingent coupon with respect to the second valuation
date. When added to the contingent coupon payment of $119.17 received in respect of the first valuation date, you would have been paid
a total of $10,357.51 per note for an 3.5751% total return on the notes. No further amount will be owed to you under the notes, and you
will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying.

NOT automatically called and the final underlying price is at or above the conversion price.

Since the notes are not automatically

$11,310.87 per note, reflecting your stated principal amount plus the contingent coupon
for the final valuation date and the previously unpaid contingent coupons from prior valuation dates. When added to the contingent coupon
payment of $119.17 received in respect of the first valuation date, you would have been
paid a total of $11,430.00 per note for an approximately 14.30%
total return on the notes over one year. You will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying.

Total Payment: |

The
underlying closes below the coupon barrier on each valuation date, and as a result no contingent coupon is paid on any coupon payment
date during the term of the notes. On the final valuation date, the underlying closes below the conversion price. Therefore, at maturity,
investors will receive the share delivery amount, with fractional shares included in the share delivery amount paid in cash at the final
underlying price. The value received at maturity and the total return on the notes at that time depends on (i) the price of one share
of the underlying on the maturity date and (ii) the final underlying price for any fractional shares of the share delivery amount. The
value of the share delivery amount received from us would be worth a total of $3,333.3333 per note for a loss on the notes of 66.67%.

On
June 10, 2025, Microsoft Corporation declared a cash dividend of $0.83000 per share of common stock payable on September 11, 2025. We
make no representation as to the amount of dividends, if any, that may be paid on the underlying shares in the future. In any event, as
an investor in the notes, you will not be entitled to receive dividends, if any, that may be payable on the underlying shares.
The graph below illustrates
the performance of the common stock of Microsoft Corporation from January 2, 2015 through July 9, 2025. The closing price of
the common stock of Microsoft Corporation on July 9, 2025 was $503.51. We obtained the closing prices of the common stock of Microsoft
Corporation from Bloomberg, and we have not participated in the preparation of or verified such information. The historical
closing prices of the common stock of Microsoft Corporation should not be taken as an indication of future performance and no assurance
can be given as to the final underlying price or any future closing price of the common stock of Microsoft Corporation. We cannot give
you assurance that the performance of the common stock of Microsoft Corporation will result in a positive return on your initial investment
and you could lose a significant portion or all of the stated principal amount at maturity.

Additional Terms of the
Notes
Payment at Maturity
The Notes will mature on the
date set forth under Indicative Terms on PS-4 of this pricing supplement (the “Maturity Date”), subject to automatic
early call. If the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment to be made on the Maturity Date will
be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Maturity Date, and no additional interest
will accrue as a result of such delayed payment.
If the Notes have not been
automatically called and the Final Underlying Price of the underlying is below the Conversion Price, we will deliver to you a number of
shares of the underlying equal to the Share Delivery Amount for each Note you then hold. In lieu of any fractional share of
underlying that you would otherwise receive in respect of any Notes you hold, at maturity you will receive an amount in cash equal to
the value of such fractional share (based on the Closing Price of the underlying on the Final Valuation Date). The number of full shares
of the underlying and any cash in lieu of a fractional share that you receive at maturity will be calculated based on the aggregate number
of Notes you then hold.
Certain Important Definitions
A “Business Day”
means any day (i) 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 and (ii) on which DTC settles payments and/or deliveries
of shares.
The
“Coupon Payment Dates” are the dates set forth under “Coupon Payment Dates”
on PS-6 of this pricing supplement. Each Coupon Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date) is subject to postponement as provided
under “Coupon Payments Dates” above.
The
“Calculation Agent” means CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup, or any successor appointed
by Citigroup.
The
“Closing Price” of the underlying (or any other security in the circumstances described
under “—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” below) on any date of determination will be:
(1)
if the applicable security is listed or admitted to trading on a U.S. national securities exchange on that date of determination, the
last reported sale price, regular way (or, in the case of The Nasdaq Stock Market, the official closing price), of the principal trading
session on such date of the Exchange for such security or, if such price is not available on the Exchange for such security, on any other
U.S. national securities exchange on which such security is listed or admitted to trading, or
(2)
if such security is not listed or admitted to trading on a U.S. national securities exchange on that date of determination and such security
is issued by a non-U.S. issuer, the last reported sale price, regular way, of the principal trading session on such date of the Exchange
for such security (converted into U.S. dollars as provided under “—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” below),
in each case
as determined by the Calculation Agent. If no such price is available pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) above, the Closing Price
of such security on the applicable date of determination will be the arithmetic mean, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the bid
prices of the security obtained from as many dealers in such security (which may include CGMI or any of our other affiliates or subsidiaries),
but not exceeding three such dealers, as will make such bid prices available to the Calculation Agent. If no bid prices are
provided from any third party dealers, the Closing Price will be determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion
(acting in good faith) taking into account any information that it deems relevant. If a Market Disruption Event occurs with
respect to the applicable security on the applicable date of determination, the Calculation Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine
the Closing Price of such security on such date either (x) pursuant to the two immediately preceding sentences or (y) if available, pursuant
to clauses (1) or (2) above.
The “Final Underlying
Price” of the underlying will equal the Closing Price of the underlying on the Final Valuation Date.
The “Conversion Price”
for the underlying will equal the Conversion Price as set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement. The Conversion
Price will be subject to adjustment as described below under “—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments.” For
purposes of the Notes, the Conversion Price may be rounded to the nearest cent.
The “Initial Underlying
Price” for the underlying will equal the Closing Price of the underlying on the Strike Date. The Initial Underlying
Price will be subject to adjustment as described below under “—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments.”
The “Strike Date”
is the date set forth under Indicative Terms on PS-4 of this pricing supplement.
The “Trade Date”
is the date set forth under Indicative Terms on PS-4 of this pricing supplement.
The “Settlement Date”
means the date set forth under Indicative Terms on PS-4 of this pricing supplement. See “Plan of Distribution; Conflicts
of Interest” in this pricing supplement for additional information.
The “Share Delivery
Amount” for the underlying will initially be equal to the $10,000.00 stated principal amount per Note divided by the Conversion
Price as set forth under “Indicative Terms” on PS-4 of this pricing supplement. The Share Delivery Amount will
be subject to adjustment as described below under “—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments.”
The “Underlying Issuer”
is set forth under Indicative Terms on PS-4 of this pricing supplement.
The “Exchange”
for the underlying or any other security means the principal U.S. national securities exchange on which trading in the underlying or security
occurs (or, if the underlying is not listed or admitted to trading on a U.S. national securities exchange, are issued by a non-U.S. issuer
and are listed or admitted to trading on a non-U.S. exchange or market, the principal non-U.S. exchange or market on which the underlying
is listed or admitted to trading), as determined by the Calculation Agent.
Consequences of a Market Disruption Event; Postponement
of a Valuation Date
If a Market Disruption Event
occurs with respect to the underlying on any scheduled Valuation Date, the Calculation Agent may, but is not required to, postpone the
Valuation Date to the next succeeding Scheduled Trading Day for the underlying on which a Market Disruption Event does not occur with
respect to the underlying; provided that the Valuation Date may not be postponed for more than five consecutive Scheduled Trading
Days for the underlying or, in any event, past the second Scheduled Trading Day for the underlying immediately preceding the Maturity
Date. In addition, if any scheduled Valuation Date is not a Scheduled Trading Day for the underlying, the Valuation Date will
be postponed to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding day that is a Scheduled Trading Day for the underlying and (ii) the second Business
Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
If a Market Disruption Event
occurs with respect to the underlying on any Valuation Date and the Calculation Agent does not postpone the Valuation date, or if any
Valuation Date is postponed for any reason to the last date to which it may be postponed, in each case as described above, then any Closing
Price to be determined on such date will be determined as set forth in the definition of “Closing Price.”
Under the terms of the Notes,
the Calculation Agent will be required to exercise discretion in determining (i) whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred with respect
to the underlying; (ii) if a Market Disruption Event occurs with respect to the underlying, whether to postpone a Valuation Date as a
result of such Market Disruption Event; and (iii) if a Market Disruption Event occurs with respect to the underlying on a date on which
the Closing Price of the underlying is determined and the Closing Price of the underlying is available pursuant to clauses (1) or (2)
of the definition of “Closing Price,” whether to determine such Closing Price by reference to such clauses (1) or (2) or by
reference to the alternative procedure described in the definition of “Closing Price.” In exercising this discretion,
the Calculation Agent will be required to act in good faith and using its reasonable judgment, but it may take into account any factors
it deems relevant, including, without limitation, whether the applicable event materially interfered with our ability or the ability of
our hedging counterparty, which may be an affiliate of ours, to adjust or unwind all or a material portion of any hedge with respect to
the Notes.
Certain Definitions
The “Closing Time”
with respect to the underlying or other security, on any day, means the Scheduled Closing Time (as defined below) of the Exchange for
the underlying or other security on such day or, if earlier, the actual closing time of such Exchange on such day.
An “Exchange Business
Day” for the underlying or other security means any day on which the Exchange and each Related Exchange for the underlying or
other security are open for trading during their respective regular trading sessions, notwithstanding any such Exchange or Related Exchange
closing prior to its Scheduled Closing Time.
A “Market Disruption
Event” means, with respect to the underlying (or any other security for which a Closing Price must be determined), as determined
by the Calculation Agent,
(1) the occurrence
or existence of any suspension of or limitation imposed on trading by the Exchange for such security or otherwise (whether by reason of
movements in price exceeding limits permitted by the Exchange or otherwise) relating to such security on such Exchange, which the Calculation
Agent determines is material, at any time during the one-hour period that ends at the Closing Time;
(2) the occurrence
or existence of any suspension of or limitation imposed on trading by any Related Exchange for such security or otherwise (whether by
reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by the Related Exchange or otherwise) in futures or options contracts relating
to such security, which the Calculation Agent determines is material, at any time during the one-hour period that ends at the Closing
Time;
(3) the occurrence
or existence of any event (other than an Early Closure (as defined below)) that disrupts or impairs (as determined by the Calculation
Agent) the ability of market participants in general to effect transactions in, or obtain market values for, such security on the Exchange
for such security, which the Calculation Agent determines is material, at any time during the one-hour period that ends at the Closing
Time;
(4) the occurrence
or existence of any event (other than an Early Closure) that disrupts or impairs (as determined by the Calculation Agent) the ability
of market participants in general to effect transactions in, or obtain market values for, futures or options contracts relating to such
security on any Related Exchange for such security, which the Calculation Agent determines is material, at any time during the one-hour
period that ends at the Closing Time;
(5) the closure
on any Exchange Business Day of the Exchange or any Related Exchange for such security prior to its Scheduled Closing Time unless such
earlier closing time is announced by such Exchange or Related Exchange at least one hour prior to the earlier of (i) the actual closing
time for the regular trading session on such Exchange or Related Exchange on such Exchange Business Day and (ii) the submission deadline
for orders to be entered into the Exchange or Related Exchange system for execution at the Closing Time on such Exchange Business Day
(an “Early Closure”); or
(6) the failure
of the Exchange or any Related Exchange for such security to open for trading during its regular trading session.
A “Related Exchange”
for the underlying or any other security means any exchange where trading has a material effect (as determined by the Calculation Agent)
on the overall market for futures or options contracts relating to the underlying or other security.
The “Scheduled Closing
Time” on any day for any Exchange or Related Exchange is the scheduled weekday closing time of such Exchange or Related Exchange
on such day, without regard to after hours or any other trading outside of the regular trading session hours.
A “Scheduled Trading
Day” for the underlying means a day, as determined by the Calculation Agent, on which the Exchange, if any, and each Related
Exchange, if any, for the underlying are scheduled to be open for trading for their respective regular trading sessions. If
on any relevant date the underlying has neither an Exchange nor a Related Exchange, then, a Scheduled Trading Day shall mean a Business
Day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Calculation Agent may, in its sole discretion, deem any day on which a Related Exchange
for the underlying is not scheduled to be open for trading for its regular trading session, but on which the Exchange for the underlying
is scheduled to be open for trading for its regular trading session, to be a Scheduled Trading Day.
Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments
The Share Delivery Amount,
the Initial Underlying Price, the Conversion Price, the Closing Price of the underlying and the property we may deliver to you at maturity
of the Notes will be subject to adjustment from time to time if certain events occur that affect the underlying. Any of these
adjustments could have an impact on the number of shares of the underlying (or other securities) you will receive at maturity or whether
the Notes are automatically called prior to maturity. CGMI, as Calculation Agent, will be responsible for the calculation of
any adjustment described herein and will furnish the trustee with notice of any adjustment. An adjustment will be made for
events with an Adjustment Date (as defined below) from but excluding the Trade Date to and including the Final Valuation Date or the applicable
Valuation Date on which the Closing Price of the underlying is greater than or equal to the Initial Underlying Price and as a result the
Notes are automatically called. If we deliver shares of the underlying at maturity, the Share Delivery Amount will be subject
to adjustment for events with an Adjustment Date up to and including the Maturity Date.
No adjustments will be required
other than those specified below. The required adjustments specified in this section do not cover all events that could have a dilutive
or adverse effect on the underlying during the term of the Notes. See “Risk Factors Relating to the Notes—The Notes
Will Not Be Adjusted for All Events that Could Affect the Price of the Underlying.”
The Calculation Agent may
elect not to make any of the adjustments described below or may modify any of the adjustments described below if it determines, in its
sole discretion, that such adjustment would not be made in any relevant market for options or futures contracts relating to the underlying
or that any adjustment made in such market would materially differ from the relevant adjustment described below.
Stock Dividends, Stock
Splits and Reverse Stock Splits
If the Underlying Issuer:
(1) declares a record date
in respect of, or pays or makes, a dividend or distribution, in each case of shares of the underlying with respect to the underlying (excluding
any share dividend or distribution for which the number of shares paid or distributed is based on a fixed cash equivalent value (“Excluded
Share Dividends”)),
(2) subdivides or splits the
outstanding shares of the underlying into a greater number of shares or
(3) combines its outstanding
shares of the underlying into a smaller number of shares,
then, in each of these cases, the Share Delivery
Amount will be multiplied by a dilution adjustment equal to a fraction, (i) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of the
underlying outstanding immediately after giving effect to such event and (ii) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of
the underlying outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the applicable Adjustment Date. An adjustment will
also be made to the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price by dividing the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price
by that dilution adjustment.
Issuance of Certain Rights
or Warrants
If the Underlying Issuer issues,
or declares a record date in respect of an issuance of, rights or warrants, in each case to all holders of shares of the underlying entitling
them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the underlying at a price per share less than the Then-Current Market Price of the underlying,
other than Excluded Rights (as defined below), then, in each case, the Share Delivery Amount will be multiplied by a dilution adjustment
equal to a fraction, (i) the numerator of which will be the number of the shares of the underlying outstanding immediately
prior to the open of business on the applicable
Adjustment Date, plus the number of additional shares of the underlying offered for subscription or purchase pursuant to the rights
or warrants, and (ii) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of the underlying outstanding immediately prior to the open
of business on the applicable Adjustment Date, plus the number of additional shares of the underlying which the aggregate offering
price of the total number of shares of the underlying offered for subscription or purchase pursuant to the rights or warrants would purchase
at the Then-Current Market Price of the underlying, which will be determined by multiplying the total number of shares of the underlying
so offered for subscription or purchase by the exercise price of the rights or warrants and dividing the product obtained by the Then-Current
Market Price. An adjustment will also be made to the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price by dividing the Initial
Underlying Price and the Conversion Price by that dilution adjustment. To the extent that, prior to the Maturity Date or automatic
early call of the Notes, after the expiration of the rights or warrants, the Underlying Issuer publicly announces the number of shares
of the underlying with respect to which such rights or warrants have been exercised and such number is less than the aggregate number
offered, the Share Delivery Amount will be further adjusted to equal the Share Delivery Amount which would have been in effect had the
adjustment for the issuance of the rights or warrants been made upon the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of the underlying
for which such rights or warrants were actually exercised, and a corresponding adjustment will be made to the Initial Underlying Price
and the Conversion Price.
“Excluded Rights”
means (i) rights to purchase shares of the underlying pursuant to a plan for the reinvestment of dividends or interest and (ii) rights
that are not immediately exercisable, trade as a unit or automatically with shares of the underlying and may be redeemed by the Underlying
Issuer.
The “Then-Current
Market Price” of the underlying, for the purpose of applying any dilution adjustment, means the average Closing Price of the
underlying for the ten Scheduled Trading Days ending on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the related Adjustment Date. For
purposes of determining the Then-Current Market Price, if a Market Disruption Event occurs with respect to the underlying on any such
Scheduled Trading Day, the Calculation Agent may disregard the Closing Price on such Scheduled Trading Day for purposes of calculating
such average; provided that the Calculation Agent may not disregard more than five Scheduled Trading Days in such ten–Scheduled
Trading Day period.
Spin-offs and Certain Other
Non-Cash Distributions
If the Underlying Issuer (a)
declares a record date in respect of, or pays or makes, a dividend or distribution, in each case to all holders of shares of the underlying,
of any class of its capital stock, the capital stock of one or more of its subsidiaries (excluding any capital stock of a subsidiary in
the form of Marketable Securities (as defined below)), evidences of its indebtedness or other non-cash assets or (b) issues to all holders
of shares of the underlying, or declares a record date in respect of an issuance to all holders of shares of the underlying of, rights
or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its or one or more of its subsidiaries’ securities, in each case excluding any share
dividends or distributions referred to above, Excluded Share Dividends, any rights or warrants referred to above, Excluded Rights and
any reclassification referred to below, then, in each of these cases, the Share Delivery Amount will be multiplied by a dilution adjustment
equal to a fraction, (i) the numerator of which will be the Then-Current Market Price of one share of the underlying and (ii) the denominator
of which will be the Then-Current Market Price of one share of the underlying less the fair market value as of open of business on the
Adjustment Date of the portion of the capital shares, assets, evidences of indebtedness, rights or warrants so distributed or issued applicable
to one share of the underlying. An adjustment will also be made to the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price by
dividing the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price by that dilution adjustment. If any capital stock declared or
paid as a dividend or otherwise distributed or issued to all holders of shares of the underlying consists, in whole or in part, of Marketable
Securities (other than Marketable Securities of a subsidiary of the Underlying Issuer), then the fair market value of such Marketable
Securities will be determined by the Calculation Agent by reference to the Closing Price of such capital stock. The fair market
value of any other distribution or issuance referred to in this paragraph will be determined by a nationally recognized independent investment
banking firm retained for this purpose by Citigroup, whose determination will be final.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event that, with respect to any dividend, distribution or issuance to which the immediately preceding paragraph would otherwise
apply, the denominator in the fraction referred to in such paragraph is less than $1.00 or is a negative number, then Citigroup may, at
its option, elect to have the adjustment to the Share Delivery Amount provided by such paragraph not be made and, in lieu of this adjustment,
the Closing Price of the underlying on any date of determination thereafter will be deemed to be equal to the sum of (i) the Closing Price
of the underlying on such date and (ii) the fair market value of the capital stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants
(determined, as of open of business on the Adjustment Date, by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained for
this purpose by Citigroup, whose determination will be final) so distributed or issued applicable to one share of the underlying. If
the Notes are not automatically called prior to maturity and the Closing Price of the underlying as so determined on the Final Valuation
Date is less than the Conversion Price, each holder of the Notes will receive per Note at maturity (x) a number of shares of the underlying
equal to the Share Delivery Amount and (y) cash in an amount per Note equal to the Share Delivery Amount as of the Adjustment Date for
such dividend, distribution or issuance multiplied by the fair market value determined pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately
preceding sentence.
If the Underlying Issuer declares
a record date in respect of, or pays or makes, a dividend or distribution, in each case to all holders of shares of the underlying of
the capital stock of one or more of its subsidiaries in the form of Marketable Securities, the Closing Price of the underlying on any
date of determination from and after open of business on the Adjustment Date will in each case equal the Closing Price of the underlying
plus the product of (i) the Closing Price of such shares of subsidiary capital stock on such date and (ii) the number of shares
of such subsidiary capital stock distributed per share of the underlying. If the Notes are not automatically called prior to
maturity and the Closing Price of the underlying as so determined on the Final Valuation Date is less than the Conversion Price, then
in each of these cases, each holder of the Notes will receive at maturity per Note a combination of (x) a number of shares of the underlying
equal to the Share Delivery Amount and (y) a number of shares of such subsidiary capital stock equal to the Share Delivery Amount multiplied
by the number of shares of such subsidiary capital stock distributed per share of the underlying. In the event an adjustment
pursuant to this paragraph occurs, following such adjustment, the
adjustments described in this section “—Dilution
and Reorganization Adjustments” will also apply to such subsidiary capital stock if any of the events described in this section
“—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments” occurs with respect to such capital stock.
Certain Extraordinary Cash
Dividends
If the Underlying Issuer declares
a record date in respect of a distribution of cash, by dividend or otherwise, to all holders of shares of the Underlying, other than (a)
any Permitted Dividends described below, (b) any cash distributed in consideration of fractional shares of the Underlying and (c) any
cash distributed in a Reorganization Event referred to below, then in each case the Share Delivery Amount will be multiplied by a dilution
adjustment equal to a fraction, (i) the numerator of which will be the Then-Current Market Price of the Underlying, and (ii) the denominator
of which will be the Then-Current Market Price of the Underlying less the amount of the distribution applicable to one share of the Underlying
which would not be a Permitted Dividend (such amount, the “Extraordinary Portion”). An adjustment will also
be made to the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price by dividing the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price by
that dilution adjustment. In the case of an issuer that is organized outside the United States, in order to determine the Extraordinary
Portion, the amount of the distribution will be reduced by any applicable foreign withholding taxes that would apply to dividends or other
distributions paid to a U.S. person that claims any reduction in such taxes to which a U.S. person would generally be entitled under an
applicable U.S. income tax treaty, if available.
A “Permitted Dividend”
is (1) any distribution of cash, by dividend or otherwise, to all holders of shares of the Underlying other than a dividend
or other distribution that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, is (a) by its terms or declared intent, declared
and paid outside the normal dividend policy or historical dividend practice of the Underlying or (b) a payment by the Underlying that
the Underlying announces will be an extraordinary dividend and (2) any cash dividend or distribution made in the form of a fixed cash
equivalent value for which the holders of shares of the Underlying have the option to receive either a number of shares of the Underlying
or a fixed amount of cash.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event that, with respect to any dividend or distribution to which the first paragraph under “—Dilution and Reorganization
Adjustments—Certain Extraordinary Cash Dividends” would otherwise apply, the denominator in the fraction referred to in the
formula in that paragraph is less than $1.00 or is a negative number, then Citigroup may, at its option, elect to have the adjustment
provided by such paragraph not be made and, in lieu of this adjustment, the Closing Price of the Underlying on any date of determination
from and after open of business on the Adjustment Date will be deemed to be equal to the sum of (i) the Closing Price of the Underlying
on such date and (ii) the amount of cash so distributed applicable to one share of the Underlying. If the Notes are not automatically
called prior to maturity and the Closing Price of the Underlying as so determined on the Final Valuation Date is less than the Conversion
Price, each holder of the Notes will receive per Note at maturity (x) a number of shares of the Underlying equal to the Share Delivery
Amount and (y) cash in an amount per Note equal to the Share Delivery Amount as of the Adjustment Date for such distribution multiplied
by the amount of cash determined pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence.
Reorganization Events
In the event of any of the
following “Reorganization Events” with respect to the Underlying Issuer:
| t | the Underlying Issuer reclassifies the Underlying, including, without limitation, in connection with the
issuance of tracking stock, |
| t | any consolidation or merger of the Underlying Issuer, or any surviving entity or subsequent surviving
entity of the Underlying Issuer, with or into another entity, other than a merger or consolidation in which the Underlying Issuer is the
continuing company and in which the shares of the Underlying of the Underlying Issuer outstanding immediately before the merger or consolidation
are not exchanged for cash, securities or other property of the Underlying Issuer or another issuer, |
| t | any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another company of the property of the Underlying Issuer or
any successor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, |
| t | any statutory exchange of the Underlying with securities of another issuer, other than in connection with
a merger or acquisition, |
| t | another entity completes a tender or exchange offer for all the outstanding shares of the Underlying or |
| t | any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Underlying Issuer or any successor of the Underlying
Issuer, |
the Closing Price of the Underlying on any date
of determination from and after the open of business on the Adjustment Date will, in each case, be deemed to be equal to the Transaction
Value on such date of determination. The Calculation Agent will determine in its sole discretion whether a transaction constitutes
a Reorganization Event as defined above, including whether a transaction constitutes a sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another
company of the property of the Underlying Issuer or any successor “as an entirety or substantially as an entirety.” The
Calculation Agent will have significant discretion in determining what “substantially as an entirety” means and may exercise
that discretion in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of holders of the Notes.
The “Transaction
Value” will equal the sum of (1), (2) and (3) below:
(1) for any cash received
in a Reorganization Event, the amount of cash received per share of the Underlying,
(2) for any property other
than cash or Marketable Securities received in a Reorganization Event, an amount equal to the fair market value on the effective date
of the Reorganization Event of that property received per share of the Underlying, as determined by a nationally recognized independent
investment banking firm retained for this purpose by Citigroup, whose determination will be final, and
(3) for any Marketable Securities
received in a Reorganization Event, an amount equal to the Closing Price per unit of these Marketable Securities on the applicable date
of determination multiplied by the number of these Marketable Securities received per share of the Underlying,
plus, in each case, if shares of the Underlying
continue to be outstanding following the Reorganization Event, the Closing Price of the Underlying.
“Marketable Securities”
are any perpetual equity securities or debt securities with a stated maturity after the Maturity Date, in each case that are listed on
a U.S. national securities exchange. The number of shares of any equity securities constituting Marketable Securities included
in the calculation of Transaction Value pursuant to clause (3) above will be adjusted if any event occurs with respect to the Marketable
Securities or the issuer of the Marketable Securities between the time of the Reorganization Event and maturity of the Notes that would
have required an adjustment as described above, had it occurred with respect to the Underlying or the Underlying Issuer. Adjustment
for these subsequent events will be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments described above, as determined by the Calculation
Agent.
If the Notes are not automatically
called prior to maturity, the Underlying has been subject to a Reorganization Event and the applicable Transaction Value determined on
the Final Valuation Date is less than the Conversion Price, each holder of the Notes will receive per Note at maturity (i) cash in an
amount equal to the Share Delivery Amount with respect to such Underlying as of the relevant Adjustment Date multiplied by the
sum of clauses (1) and (2) in the definition of “Transaction Value” above, (ii) if the Underlying continues to be outstanding
following the effective date of the Reorganization Event, a number of shares of such Underlying equal to the Share Delivery Amount with
respect to such Underlying and (iii) the number of Marketable Securities received per share of such Underlying in the Reorganization Event
multiplied by the Share Delivery Amount with respect to such Underlying as of the relevant Adjustment Date.
Certain General Provisions
The adjustments described
in this section will be effected at the open of business on the applicable date specified below (such date, the “Adjustment Date”):
| t | in the case of any dividend, distribution or issuance, on the applicable Ex-Date (as defined below), |
| t | in the case of any subdivision, split, combination or reclassification, on the effective date thereof
and |
| t | in the case of any Reorganization Event, on the effective date of the Reorganization Event. |
All adjustments will be rounded
upward or downward to the nearest 1/10,000th or, if there is not a nearest 1/10,000th, to the next lower 1/10,000th. No adjustment in
the Share Delivery Amount will be required unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent therein,
provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this sentence are not required to be made will be carried forward
(on a percentage basis) and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. If any announcement or declaration of a record date in respect
of a dividend, distribution or issuance requiring an adjustment as described herein is subsequently canceled by the Underlying Issuer,
or this dividend, distribution or issuance fails to receive requisite approvals or fails to occur for any other reason, in each case prior
to the Maturity Date or the earlier automatic call of the Notes, then, upon the cancellation, failure of approval or failure to occur,
the Share Delivery Amount, the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price will be further adjusted to the Share Delivery Amount,
the Initial Underlying Price and the Conversion Price, respectively, which would then have been in effect had adjustment for the event
not been made. All adjustments to the Share Delivery Amount shall be cumulative, such that if more than one adjustment is required
to the Share Delivery Amount, each subsequent adjustment will be made to the Share Delivery Amount as previously adjusted.
The “Ex-Date”
relating to any dividend, distribution or issuance is the first date on which shares of the Underlying trade in the regular way on their
principal market without the right to receive such dividend, distribution or issuance from the Underlying Issuer or, if applicable, from
the seller on such market (in the form of due bills or otherwise).
For the purpose of adjustments
described herein, each non-U.S. dollar value (whether a value of cash, property, securities or otherwise) shall be expressed in U.S. dollars
as converted from the relevant currency using the 12:00 noon buying rate in New York certified by the New York Federal Reserve Bank for
customs purposes on the date of valuation, or if this rate is unavailable, such rate as the Calculation Agent may determine.
Delisting of the Underlying
If the Underlying is delisted from its Exchange
(other than in connection with a Reorganization Event) and not then or immediately thereafter listed on another U.S. national securities
exchange (a “Delisting Event”), we will have the right, but not the obligation, to call the Notes for redemption on
the third Business Day following the last Scheduled Trading Day for the Underlying on which it is scheduled to trade on such Exchange;
provided that, if public notice of such delisting is not provided at least five Business Days prior to such last Scheduled Trading
Day, we may in our reasonable judgment specify a date later than such third Business Day as the date of redemption. If we elect
to exercise such call right, we will provide to the trustee, and either we or the trustee (at our request) will provide to holders of
the Notes (which shall be DTC for so long as the Notes are held in book-entry form), at least five Business Days’ notice of our
election. If we exercise this call
right, we will redeem the Notes for an amount in cash
equal to the amount you would be entitled to receive on the Maturity Date, calculated as though the Last Valid Trading Day (as defined
below) were the final Valuation Date. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the portion of such payment attributable to
the final contingent coupon payment, if any, will be prorated from and including the immediately preceding coupon payment date (or the
issue date, if there is no such coupon payment date) to but excluding the date of redemption.
The “Last Valid Trading Day” means
the last Scheduled Trading Day for the Underlying on which it is scheduled to trade on its Exchange; provided that, if the Closing
Price of the Underlying is not available pursuant to clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Closing Price” or a Market Disruption
Event occurs with respect to the Underlying on such last Scheduled Trading Day, the Calculation Agent may, but is not required to, deem
the Last Valid Trading Day with respect to the Underlying to be the first Scheduled Trading Day for the Underlying preceding such last
Scheduled Trading Day on which such Closing Price was available pursuant to clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Closing Price”
and a Market Disruption Event did not occur with respect to the Underlying.
If a Delisting Event occurs and we do not exercise
our right to call the Notes pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, then the Calculation Agent may, but is not required to, select
Successor Shares (as defined below) to be the Underlying in accordance with the following paragraphs prior to open of business on the
first Scheduled Trading Day for the Underlying on which it is no longer listed or admitted to trading on its Exchange (the “Change
Date”).
The “Successor Shares” with respect
to the Underlying will be shares of an Eligible Company (as defined below) selected by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion from
among the shares of the Top Three Eligible Companies. The “Top Three Eligible Companies” are the three (or fewer,
if the Calculation Agent cannot identify three) Eligible Companies whose shares are, in the Calculation Agent’s sole determination,
the most comparable to the original Underlying, taking into account such factors as the Calculation Agent deems relevant (including, without
limitation, market capitalization, dividend history, trading characteristics, liquidity and share price volatility), excluding (i) any
shares that are subject to a trading restriction under the trading restriction policies of Citigroup or any of its affiliates that would
materially limit our ability or the ability of any of our affiliates to hedge the Notes with respect to the shares and (ii) any other
shares that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, not to select as Successor Shares based on legal or regulatory considerations. An
“Eligible Company” is a company that (x) is organized in, or the principal executive office of which is located in, the country
in which the original Underlying Issuer is organized or has its principal executive office, (y) has shares that are listed or admitted
to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market and (z) has the same Global Industry Classification Standard (“GICS”)
sub-industry code as the original Underlying Issuer; provided that, if the Calculation Agent determines that no shares of a company
meeting the criteria set forth in clauses (x), (y) and (z) are sufficiently comparable to the original Underlying to select as Successor
Shares, the Calculation Agent may treat as an Eligible Company any company that meets the criteria set forth in clauses (x) and (y) and
has the same GICS industry group code as the original Underlying Issuer; provided, further, that, if the Calculation Agent determines
that no shares of a company meeting the criteria set forth in the immediately preceding proviso are sufficiently comparable to the original
Underlying to select as Successor Shares, the Calculation Agent may treat as an Eligible Company any company that meets the criteria set
forth in clauses (y) and (z). If no GICS sub-industry or industry group code has been assigned to any applicable company, the
Calculation Agent may select a GICS sub-industry and industry group code, as applicable, for such company in its sole discretion.
Upon the selection of any Successor Shares by the
Calculation Agent, on and after the Change Date, references in this pricing supplement to the Underlying will no longer be deemed to refer
to the original Underlying and will be deemed instead to refer to the Successor Shares for all purposes, and references in this pricing
supplement to the Underlying Issuer will be deemed to be to the issuer of such Successor Shares. Upon the selection of any
Successor Shares by the Calculation Agent, on and after the Change Date, (i) the Share Delivery Amount for the Successor Shares will be
equal to the Share Delivery Amount for the original Underlying immediately prior to the Change Date multiplied by a factor determined
by the Calculation Agent in good faith, taking into account, among other things, the Closing Price of the original Underlying on the Last
Valid Trading Day, and (ii) the Initial Underlying Price, Coupon Barrier and Conversion Price for the Successor Shares will be equal to
the Initial Underlying Price, Coupon Barrier or Conversion Price, as applicable, for the original Underlying immediately prior to the
Change Date divided by such factor. The Share Delivery Amount, Initial Underlying Price, Coupon Barrier and Conversion
Price for the Successor Shares as so determined will be subject to adjustment for certain corporate events related to the Successor Shares
occurring on or after the Change Date in accordance with “—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments.”
The Calculation Agent will
cause notice of the selection of Successor Shares and the Share Delivery Amount, Initial Underlying Price, Coupon Barrier and Conversion
Price for the Successor Shares to be furnished to us and the trustee.
No Redemption at the Option of the Holder; Defeasance
The Notes will not be subject
to redemption at the option of any holder prior to maturity and will not be 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 described in the accompanying prospectus) with respect to the Notes 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 the amount to be received at
maturity, calculated as though the date of acceleration were the Final Valuation Date. For purposes of the immediately preceding
sentence, the portion of such payment attributable to the final coupon payment will be prorated from and including the immediately preceding
Coupon Payment Date to but excluding the date of acceleration.
In case of default under the
Notes, whether in the payment of any coupon or any other payment or delivery due under the Notes, no interest will accrue on such overdue
payment or delivery either before or after the Maturity Date.
Paying Agent and Trustee
Citibank, N.A. will serve
as paying agent and registrar for the Notes and will also hold the global security representing the Notes as custodian for DTC. The
Bank of New York Mellon (as trustee under an indenture dated March 8, 2016) will serve as trustee for the Notes.
CUSIP / ISIN
The CUSIP and ISIN for the
Notes are set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement.
Calculation Agent
The Calculation Agent for the Notes will be CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup
Global Markets Holdings Inc. All determinations made by the Calculation Agent will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent
and will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., Citigroup
Inc. and the holders of the Notes. The Calculation Agent is obligated to carry out its duties and functions in good faith and using its
reasonable judgment.
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 notes. In connection with any information reporting
requirements we may have in respect of the notes under applicable law, we intend (in the absence of an administrative determination or
judicial ruling to the contrary) to treat the notes 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, this treatment of the notes 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. Moreover, our counsel’s opinion is based on market conditions
as of the date of this preliminary pricing supplement and is subject to confirmation on the pricing date.
Assuming this treatment of the notes 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 notes 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 note (including retirement at maturity for cash), you should recognize capital gain or loss equal to
the difference between the amount realized and your tax basis in the note. 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. |
| · | If, upon retirement of the notes, you receive underlying shares, you should not recognize gain or loss with respect to the underlying
shares received, other than any fractional underlying share for which you receive cash. Your basis in any underlying shares
received, including any fractional underlying share deemed received, should be equal to your tax basis in the notes. Your holding
period for any underlying shares received should start on the day after receipt. With respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional
share, you should recognize capital loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received in lieu of the fractional
share and the portion of your tax basis in the notes that is allocable to the fractional share. |
We do not plan to request a ruling
from the IRS regarding the treatment of the notes. An alternative characterization of the notes could materially and adversely affect
the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the notes, 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 notes, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax adviser
regarding possible alternative tax treatments of the notes and potential changes in applicable law.
This discussion does not address
the U.S. federal tax consequences of the ownership or disposition of the underlying shares that you may receive at maturity. You should
consult your tax adviser regarding the particular U.S. federal tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the underlying shares.
Withholding Tax on Non-U.S. Holders. Because significant aspects
of the tax treatment of the notes are uncertain, persons having withholding responsibility in respect of the notes 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 notes, 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 notes, 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 notes and representations
provided by us as of the date of this preliminary pricing supplement, our counsel is of the opinion that the notes 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). However, the final determination regarding the
treatment of the notes under Section 871(m) will be made as of the pricing date for the notes, and it is possible that the notes will
be subject to withholding tax under Section 871(m) based on the circumstances as of that date.
A determination that the notes
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 notes.
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 notes.
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 notes 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 lead agent for the sale of the notes, will receive an underwriting discount of $10.00 for each note
sold in this offering. UBS, as agent for sales of the notes, expects to purchase from CGMI, and CGMI expects to sell to UBS,
all of the notes sold in this offering for $9,990.00 per note. UBS proposes to offer the notes to the public at a price of
$10,000.00 per note. UBS will receive an underwriting discount of $10.00 for each note it sells to the public. The
underwriting discount will be received by UBS and its financial advisors collectively. If all of the notes are not sold at
the initial offering price, CGMI may change the public offering price and other selling terms. For the avoidance of doubt,
the underwriting discount will not be rebated if the notes are automatically called prior to maturity.
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 Notes
CGMI calculated the estimated value of the notes 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 notes by estimating the value of a hypothetical package of financial instruments that would replicate the payout on the
notes, which consists of a fixed-income bond (the “bond component”) and one or more derivative instruments underlying
the economic terms of the notes (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
notes 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.
The estimated value of the notes is a function of the terms of the notes
and the inputs to CGMI’s proprietary pricing models. As of the date of this preliminary pricing supplement, it is uncertain what
the estimated value of the notes will be on the trade date because it is uncertain what the values of the inputs to CGMI’s proprietary
pricing models will be on the trade date.
During a temporary adjustment period immediately following issuance
of the notes, the price, if any, at which CGMI would be willing to buy the notes from investors, and the value that will be indicated
for the notes on any 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 notes. The amount of this temporary upward adjustment
will decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period. CGMI
currently expects that the temporary adjustment period will be approximately one month, but the actual length of the temporary adjustment
period may be shortened due to various factors, such as the volume of secondary market purchases of the notes and other factors that cannot
be predicted. However, CGMI is not obligated to buy the notes from investors at any time. See “Summary Risk
Factors—The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.”
