| Selected Risk Considerations |
| · | Your payment at maturity may not exceed $1,027.50 per $1,000 stated principal amount. |
| · | Although the notes provide for a minimum payment of at least $1,027.50 per $1,000 stated principal amount at maturity, you may nevertheless suffer a loss on your investment in real value terms. |
| · | Your potential to participate in the absolute value of any depreciation of the underlying index may terminate on any scheduled trading day during the observation period. |
| · | The probability that a knock-out event will occur will depend in part on the volatility of the underlying index. |
| · | Your potential return on the notes is limited and may significantly underperform the underlying index. |
| · | Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index or the stocks that constitute the underlying index. |
| · | The notes offer downside exposure to the underlying index, but no upside exposure to the underlying index. |
| · | If a knock-out event does not occur, your payment at maturity will depend on the closing level of the underlying index on a single day. |
| · | The notes are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. defaults on its obligations under the notes and Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive anything owed to you under the notes. |
| · | The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity. |
| · | Sale of the notes prior to maturity may result in a loss of principal. |
| · | The estimated value of the notes on the pricing date is less than the issue price. For more information about the estimated value of the notes, see the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. |
| · | The value of the notes prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors. |
