Citigroup Inc. $---- Contingent Return Optimization Securities
|
|
Linked to the S&P 500® Index Due On or
About July 31, 2018
The Contingent Return Optimization
Securities (the “Securities”) are unsecured, unsubordinated debt obligations of Citigroup Inc. (the “Issuer”)
with a return at maturity linked to the performance of the S&P 500® Index (the “Underlying Index”)
from its Initial Index Level to its Final Index Level.
If the Final Index Level is equal to or greater than the Trigger Level, the Issuer will repay the Stated Principal Amount of the
Securities at maturity and pay a return equal to the greater of (i) the Contingent Return of 10.00% and (ii) the Index Return,
up to the Maximum Gain of 28.00% to 35.00% (to be determined on the Trade Date). However, if the Final Index Level is less than
the Trigger Level, you will be fully exposed to the negative Index Return and the Issuer will pay you less than the Stated Principal
Amount at maturity, resulting in a loss on the Stated Principal Amount to investors that is proportionate to the percentage decline
in the level of the Underlying Index.
Investing in the Securities involves significant risks. You will not receive coupon payments during the 3-year term of the Securities.
You may lose a substantial portion or all of your initial investment.
You will not receive dividends or other distributions paid on any stocks included in the Underlying Index.
The contingent repayment of the Stated Principal Amount applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity.
Any payment on the Securities, including any repayment of the Stated Principal Amount provided at maturity, is subject to the creditworthiness
of the Issuer. If the Issuer
were to default on its payment obligations, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the Securities and you could lose
your entire investment.

Key Dates1 |
q Contingent
Return with Participation in any Positive Performance of the Index up to the Maximum Gain — At maturity, the Issuer will
pay you the Stated Principal Amount of the Securities plus a Contingent Return of 10.00% as long as the level of the Underlying
Index does not close below the Trigger Level on the Final Valuation Date. The Securities also provide for participation in any
positive performance of the Underlying Index above the 10.00% Contingent Return up to the Maximum Gain. However, if the Final Index
Level is less than the Trigger Level, you will be fully exposed to the negative performance of the Underlying Index.
q Downside
Exposure with Contingent Repayment of the Stated Principal Amount at Maturity — The Contingent Return feature also provides
for the contingent repayment of your Stated Principal Amount at maturity. If you hold the Securities to maturity and the Final
Index Level is greater than or equal to the Trigger Level, the Issuer will pay you at least your Stated Principal Amount plus the
Contingent Return. However, if the Final Index Level is below the Trigger Level, your investment will be fully exposed to the negative
Index Return and the Issuer will pay less than your Stated Principal Amount, resulting in a loss proportionate to the negative
Index Return. The contingent repayment of the Stated Principal Amount applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity. You
might lose some or all of your initial investment. Any payment on the Securities is subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer.
If the Issuer were to default on its payment obligations, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the Securities and
you could lose your entire investment.

If the Final Index Level is equal to or greater than the Trigger

Stated Principal Amount of $10.00 per Security plus a return equal to the greater of the Contingent Return and the Index Return,
subject to the Maximum Gain, calculated as follows:
$10.00 + ($10.00 × the greater of (i)
Contingent Return and (ii) Index Return, subject to the Maximum Gain)
If the Final Index Level is less than the Trigger Level on
the Final Valuation Date, Citigroup Inc. will pay you a cash payment at maturity less than the Stated Principal Amount of $10.00
per Security, resulting in a loss on the Stated Principal Amount that is proportionate to the percentage decline in the level of
the Underlying Index, calculated as follows:
$10.00 + ($10.00 × Index Return)
In this scenario, you will be exposed to the full negative
Index Return, and you will lose a substantial portion or all of the Stated Principal Amount in an amount proportionate to the percentage
decline in the Underlying Index.

An investment in the Securities is significantly
riskier than an investment in conventional debt securities. The Securities are subject to all of the risks associated with an investment
in our conventional debt securities, including the risk that we may default on our obligations under the Securities, and are also
subject to risks associated with the Underlying Index. Accordingly, the Securities are suitable only for investors who are capable
of understanding the complexities and risks of the Securities. You should consult your own financial, tax and legal advisers as
to the risks of an investment in the Securities and the suitability of the Securities in light of your particular circumstances.
The following is a summary of certain key risk
factors for investors in the Securities. You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of risks relating
to an investment in the Securities contained in the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” beginning on
page EA-6 in the accompanying product supplement and the description of risks relating to the Underlying Index contained in the
section “Risk Factors” beginning on page 1 in the accompanying underlying supplement. You should also carefully read
the risk factors included in the documents incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus, including our most recent
Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which describe risks relating to our business more
generally.
| ¨ | You may lose some or all of your investment — The Securities differ from ordinary debt securities in that we will
not necessarily repay the full Stated Principal Amount of your Securities at maturity. Instead, your return on the Securities is
linked to the performance of the Underlying Index and will depend on whether the Final Index Level is greater than or less than
the Trigger Level. If the Final Index Level is less than the Trigger Level, you will lose 1% of the Stated Principal Amount of
the Securities for every 1% by which the Final Index Level is less than the Initial Index Level. There is no minimum payment at
maturity on the Securities, and you may lose up to all of your investment in the Securities. |
| ¨ | The contingent return and reduced market risk offered by the Securities are contingent, and you will have full downside
exposure to the Underlying Index if the Final Index Level is less than the Trigger Level — If the Final Index Level is
below the Trigger Level, you will not receive a contingent return, the contingent reduced market risk with respect to a limited
range of potential depreciation of the Underlying Index offered by the Securities will not apply and you will lose 1% of the Stated
Principal Amount of the Securities for every 1% by which the Final Index Level is less than the Initial Index Level. The Securities
will have full downside exposure to the decline of the Underlying Index if the Final Index Level is below the Trigger Level. As
a result, you may lose your entire investment in the Securities. Further, this contingent return and contingent reduced market
risk applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity. If you are able to sell the Securities prior to maturity you may have
to sell them for a loss even if the Underlying Index has not declined below the Trigger Level. |
| ¨ | The Securities do not pay interest — Unlike conventional debt securities, the Securities do not pay interest or
any other amounts prior to maturity. You should not invest in the Securities if you seek current income during the term of the
Securities. |
| ¨ | The appreciation potential of the Securities is limited by the Maximum Gain — Your potential total return on the
Securities at maturity is limited by the Maximum Gain. As a result, the return on an investment in the Securities may be less than
the return on a hypothetical direct investment in the Underlying Index. |
| ¨ | Investing in the Securities is not equivalent
to investing in the Underlying Index or the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index — You will not have voting rights,
rights to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the stocks that constitute the Underlying
Index. As of June 30, 2015, the average dividend yield of the Underlying Index was approximately 2.05% per year. While it is impossible
to know the future dividend yield of the Underlying Index, if this average dividend yield were to remain constant for the term
of the Securities, you would be forgoing an aggregate yield of approximately 6.15% (assuming no reinvestment of dividends) by investing
in the Securities instead of investing directly in the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index or in another investment linked
to the Underlying Index that provides for a passthrough of dividends. The payment scenarios described in this pricing supplement
do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over the term of the Securities. You should understand that the Underlying Index
is not a total return index, which means that it does not reflect dividends paid on the stocks included in the Underlying Index.
Therefore, the return on your Securities will not reflect any reinvestment of dividends.
|
| ¨ | Your payment at maturity depends on the closing level of the Underlying Index on a single day — Because your payment
at maturity depends on the closing level of the Underlying Index solely on the Final Valuation Date, you are subject to the risk
that the closing level of the Underlying Index on that day may be lower, and possibly significantly lower, than on one or more
other dates during the term of the Securities. If you had invested in another instrument linked to the Underlying Index that you
could sell for full value at a time selected by you, or if the payment at maturity were based on an average of closing levels of
the Underlying Index, you might have achieved better returns. |
| ¨ | The Securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc. — Any payment on the Securities will be made by
Citigroup Inc. and therefore is subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc. If we default on our obligations under the Securities,
you may not receive any payments that become due under the Securities. As a result, the value of the Securities prior to maturity
will be affected by changes in the market’s view of our creditworthiness. Any decline, or anticipated decline, in our credit
ratings or increase, or anticipated increase, in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk is likely
to adversely affect the value of the Securities. |
| ¨ | The Securities will not be listed on a securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity —
The Securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the
Securities. CGMI currently intends to make a secondary market in relation to the Securities and to provide an indicative bid price
for the Securities on a daily basis. Any indicative bid price for the Securities provided by CGMI will be determined in CGMI’s
sole discretion, taking into account prevailing market conditions and other relevant factors, and will not be a representation
by CGMI that the Securities can be sold at that price, or at all. CGMI may suspend or terminate making a market and providing indicative
bid prices without notice, at any time and for any reason. If CGMI suspends or terminates making a market, there may be no secondary
market at all for the Securities because it is likely that CGMI will be the only broker-dealer that is willing to buy your Securities
prior to maturity. Accordingly, an investor must be prepared to hold the Securities until maturity. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of the Securities on the 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 Securities that are included in the issue price. These costs include (i) the selling concessions paid
in connection with the offering of the Securities, (ii) hedging and other costs incurred by us and our affiliates in connection
with the offering of the Securities and (iii) the expected profit (which may be more or less than actual profit) to CGMI or other
of our affiliates in connection with hedging our obligations under the Securities. These costs adversely affect the economic terms
of the Securities because, if they were lower, the |
economic terms of the Securities would be more favorable to you. The economic
terms of the Securities are also likely to be adversely affected by the use of our internal funding rate, rather than our secondary
market rate, to price the Securities. See “The estimated value of the Securities would be lower if it were calculated based
on our secondary market rate” below.
| ¨ | The estimated value of the Securities was determined for us by our affiliate using proprietary pricing models — CGMI
derived the estimated value disclosed on the cover page of this pricing supplement from its proprietary pricing models. In doing
so, it may have made discretionary judgments about the inputs to its models, such as the volatility of the Underlying Index, dividend
yields on the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index and interest rates. CGMI’s views on these inputs may differ from
your or others’ views, and as an underwriter in this offering, CGMI’s interests may conflict with yours. Both the models
and the inputs to the models may prove to be wrong and therefore not an accurate reflection of the value of the Securities. Moreover,
the estimated value of the Securities set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement may differ from the value that we
or our affiliates may determine for the Securities for other purposes, including for accounting purposes. You should not invest
in the Securities because of the estimated value of the Securities. Instead, you should be willing to hold the Securities to maturity
irrespective of the initial estimated value. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of the Securities would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate — The
estimated value of the Securities included in this pricing supplement is calculated based on our internal funding rate, which is
the rate at which we are willing to borrow funds through the issuance of the Securities. Our internal funding rate is generally
lower than the market rate implied by traded instruments referencing our debt obligations in the secondary market for those debt
obligations, which we refer to as our secondary market rate. If the estimated value included in this pricing supplement were based
on our secondary market rate, rather than our internal funding rate, it would likely be lower. We determine our internal funding
rate based on factors such as the costs associated with the Securities, which are generally higher than the costs associated with
conventional debt securities, and our liquidity needs and preferences. Our internal funding rate is not an interest rate that we
will pay to investors in the Securities, which do not bear interest. |
| ¨ | The estimated value of the Securities is not an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be
willing to buy the Securities from you in the secondary market — Any such secondary market price will fluctuate over
the term of the Securities based on the market and other factors described in the next risk factor. Moreover, unlike the estimated
value included in this pricing supplement, any value of the Securities determined for purposes of a secondary market transaction
will be based on our secondary market rate, which will likely result in a lower value for the Securities than if our internal funding
rate were used. In addition, any secondary market price for the Securities will be reduced by a bid-ask spread, which may vary
depending on the aggregate Stated Principal Amount of the Securities to be purchased in the secondary market transaction, and the
expected cost of unwinding related hedging transactions. As a result, it is likely that any secondary market price for the Securities
will be less than the issue price. |
| ¨ | The value of the Securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors — The value of
your Securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on the level and volatility of the Underlying Index and a number of other
factors, including the price and volatility of the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index, dividend yields on the stocks that
constitute the Underlying Index, interest rates generally, the time remaining to maturity and our creditworthiness, as reflected
in our secondary market rate. You should understand that the value of your Securities at any time prior to maturity may be significantly
less than the issue price. The stated payout from the Issuer, including the potential application of the Contingent Return and
the Trigger Level, only applies if you hold the Securities to maturity. |
| ¨ | 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
Securities” in this pricing supplement. |
| ¨ | Our affiliates, or UBS or its affiliates, may publish research, express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent
with investing in or holding the Securities — Any such research, opinions or recommendations could affect the level of
the Underlying Index and the value of the Securities. 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 Securities, or express opinions or provide recommendations
that may be inconsistent with purchasing or holding the Securities. 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 level of the Underlying Index and
may have a negative impact on your interests as a holder of the Securities. Investors should make their own independent investigation
of the merits of investing in the Securities and the Underlying Index to which the Securities are linked. |
| ¨ | 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 Securities — We expect to hedge our exposure under the Securities 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 Index or the stocks included in the Underlying Index and may adjust such positions during
the term of the Securities. It is possible that our affiliates could receive substantial returns from these hedging activities
while the value of the Securities declines. Our affiliates and UBS and its affiliates may also engage in trading in instruments
linked to the Underlying Index 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 level of the Underlying Index and reduce the return on your investment in the Securities.
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 Index. By introducing competing products into the marketplace in this manner, our affiliates
or UBS or its affiliates could adversely affect the value of the Securities. 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 Securities. |
| ¨ | 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 issuers of the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index, including extending loans to, making equity investments in or providing
advisory services to such issuers. In the course of this business, our affiliates or UBS or its affiliates may acquire non-public
information about those issuers, 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 any such issuer, they may exercise any remedies against that issuer that are available to them without
regard to your interests. |
| ¨ | The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important determinations with respect to the Securities
— If certain events occur, such as market disruption events or the discontinuance of the Underlying Index, CGMI, as calculation
agent, will be |
required to make discretionary judgments that could significantly affect what you receive at maturity. Such judgments
could include, among other things, any level required to be determined under the Securities. In addition, if certain events occur,
CGMI will be required to make certain discretionary judgments that could significantly affect your payment at maturity. Such judgments
could include, among other things:
| ¨ | determining whether a market disruption event has occurred; |
| ¨ | if a market disruption event occurs on the Final Valuation Date, determining whether to postpone the Final Valuation Date; |
| ¨ | determining the level of the Underlying Index if the level of the Underlying Index is not otherwise available or a market disruption
event has occurred; and |
| ¨ | selecting a successor Underlying Index or performing an alternative calculation of the level of the Underlying Index if the
Underlying Index is discontinued or materially modified (see “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms
for Securities Linked to an Underlying Index—Discontinuance or Material Modification of an Underlying Index” in the
accompanying product supplement). |
In making these judgments, the calculation
agent’s interests as an affiliate of ours could be adverse to your interests as a holder of the Securities.
| ¨ | Adjustments to the Underlying Index may affect the value of your Securities — S&P Dow Jones Indices LLP (the
“Underlying Index Publisher”) may add, delete or substitute the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index or make
other methodological changes that could affect the level of the Underlying Index. The Underlying Index Publisher may discontinue
or suspend calculation or publication of the Underlying Index at any time without regard to your interests as holders of the Securities. |
| ¨ | The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the Securities are unclear — There is no direct legal authority
regarding the proper U.S. federal tax treatment of the Securities, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue
Service (the “IRS”). Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the Securities are uncertain,
and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the Securities as prepaid forward contracts. If the IRS were successful
in asserting an alternative treatment of the Securities, the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Securities
might be materially and adversely affected. As described below under “United States Federal Tax Considerations,” in
2007, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal
income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments. Any Treasury regulations or other guidance
promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in
the Securities, including the character and timing of income or loss and the degree, if any, to which income realized by non-U.S.
persons should be subject to withholding tax, possibly with retroactive effect. 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 Securities, as well as tax consequences arising
under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction. |
The diagram below illustrates your hypothetical payment at maturity
for a range of hypothetical percentage changes from the Initial Index Level to the Final Index Level. The diagram below is based
on a hypothetical Maximum Gain of 28.00%.
Investors in the Securities will not receive any dividends on
the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index. The diagram and examples below do not show any effect of lost dividend yield over
the term of the Securities. See “Summary Risk Factors—Investing in the Securities is not equivalent to investing in
the Underlying Index or the stocks that constitute the Underlying Index” above.
The following table and hypothetical examples below illustrate
the Payment at Maturity per $10.00 Stated Principal Amount of Securities for a hypothetical range of performances for the Underlying
Index from -100.00% to +100.00% and assume an Initial Index Level of 2,100.00, a Maximum Gain of 28.00% and a Trigger Level of
1,680.00 (80% of the Initial Index Level). The actual Initial Index Level, Trigger Level and Maximum Gain will be determined on
the Trade Date. The hypothetical Payment at Maturity examples set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and may not be
the actual returns applicable to a purchaser of the Securities. The actual Payment at Maturity will be determined based on the
Final Index Level on the Final Valuation Date. You should consider carefully whether the Securities are suitable to your investment
goals. The numbers appearing in the table and in the examples below have been rounded for ease of analysis.

1 The “Total Return on Securities at
Maturity” is calculated as (a) the Payment at Maturity per Security minus the $10.00 Issue Price per Security divided
by (b) the $10.00 Issue Price per Security.
Example 1 — The Final Index Level of 3,150.00 is greater
than the Initial Index Level of 2,100.00, resulting in an Index Return of 50.00%. Because the Index Return of 50.00% is greater
than the Maximum Gain of 28.00%, Citigroup Inc. would pay you the Stated Principal Amount plus a return equal to the Maximum Gain
of 28.00%, resulting in a Payment at Maturity of $12.80 per $10.00 Stated Principal Amount of Securities (a total return at maturity
of 28.00%*), calculated as follows:
$10.00 + ($10.00 × the
greater of (i) Contingent Return and (ii) Index Return, subject to Maximum Gain)
$10.00 + ($10.00 ×
the greater of (i) 10.00% and (ii) 50.00%, subject to Maximum Gain)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × 28.00%)
$10.00 + $2.80
= $12.80
In this example, an investment in the Securities would underperform
a hypothetical alternative investment providing 1-to-1 exposure to the appreciation of the Underlying Index.
Example 2 — The Final Index Level of 2,520.00 is greater
than the Initial Index Level of 2,100.00, resulting in an Index Return of 20.00%. Because the Index Return of 20.00% is less
than the Maximum Gain of 28.00%, Citigroup Inc. would pay you the Stated Principal Amount plus a return equal to the Index Return
of 20.00%, resulting in a Payment at Maturity of $12.00 per $10.00 Stated Principal Amount of Securities (a total return at maturity
of 20.00%*), calculated as follows:
$10.00 + ($10.00 × the
greater of (i) Contingent Return and (ii) Index Return, subject to Maximum Gain)
$10.00 + ($10.00 ×
the greater of (i) 10.00% and (ii) 20.00%, subject to Maximum Gain)
$10.00 + ($10.00 ×
20.00%)
$10.00 + $2.00
= $12.00
Example 3 — The Final Index Level of 1,890.00 is
less than the Initial Index Level of 2,100.00 (resulting in an Index Return of -10.00%) but greater than the Trigger Level of
1,680.00. Because the Final Index Level is greater than the Trigger Level, Citigroup Inc. would pay you the Stated
Principal Amount plus a return equal to the Contingent Return of 10.00%, resulting in a Payment at Maturity of $11.00 per
$10.00 Stated Principal Amount of Securities (a total return at maturity of 10.00%*), calculated as follows:
$10.00 + ($10.00 × the
greater of (i) Contingent Return and (ii) Index Return, subject to Maximum Gain)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × the
greater of (i) 10.00% and (ii) -10.00%, subject to Maximum Gain)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × 10.00%)
$10.00 + $1.00 = $11.00
Example 4 — The Final Index Level of 630.00 is less
than the Initial Index Level of 2,100.00 (resulting in an Index Return of -70.00%) and less than the Trigger Level of 1,680.00.
Because the Index Return is negative and the Final Index Level is less than the Trigger Level, Citigroup Inc. would pay you
a Payment at Maturity of $3.00 per $10.00 Stated Principal Amount of Securities (a total return at maturity of -70.00%*), calculated
as follows:
$10.00 + ($10.00 × Index Return)
$10.00 + ($10.00 × -70.00%) = $3.00
If the Final Index Level is less than the
Trigger Level, you will be fully exposed to the negative Index Return, resulting in a loss on the Stated Principal Amount that
is proportionate to the percentage decline in the level of the Underlying Index. Under these circumstances, you will lose a significant
portion or all of the Stated Principal Amount at maturity. Any payment on the Securities, including any repayment of the Stated
Principal Amount at maturity, is subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer and if the Issuer were to default on its payment
obligations, you could lose your entire investment.
* The total return at maturity is calculated as (a) the Payment
at Maturity per Security minus the $10.00 Issue Price per Security divided by (b) the $10.00 Issue Price per Security.

the performance of the Underlying Index 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.
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.
In the opinion of our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP,
which is based on current market conditions, a Security should be treated as a prepaid forward contract for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. By purchasing a Security, you agree (in the absence of an administrative determination or judicial ruling to the
contrary) to this treatment. There is uncertainty regarding this treatment, and the IRS or a court might not agree with it.
Assuming this treatment of the Securities is respected and subject
to the discussion in “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement, the following
U.S. federal income tax consequences should result under current law:
| ¨ | You should not recognize taxable income over the term of the Securities prior to maturity, other than pursuant to a sale or
exchange. |
| ¨ | Upon a sale or exchange of a Security (including retirement at maturity), you should recognize capital gain or loss equal to
the difference between the amount realized and your tax basis in the Security. Such gain or loss should be long-term capital gain
or loss if you held the Security for more than one year. |
Under current law, if you are a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined in
the accompanying product supplement) of the Securities, you generally should not be subject to U.S. federal withholding or income
tax in respect of any amount paid to you with respect to the Securities, provided that (i) income in respect of the Securities
is not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and (ii) you comply with the applicable
certification requirements.
In 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a
notice requesting comments on the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments.
The notice focuses in particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment.
It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments;
whether short-term instruments should be subject to any such accrual regime; the relevance of factors such as the exchange-traded
status of the instruments and the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to
which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. investors should be subject to withholding tax; and whether
these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime, which very generally can operate
to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose an interest charge. While the notice requests comments
on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration
of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Securities, including the character
and timing of income or loss and the degree, if any, to which income realized by non-U.S. persons should be subject to withholding
tax, possibly with retroactive effect. If withholding tax applies to the Securities, we will not be required to pay any additional
amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.
You should read the section entitled “United States
Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement. The preceding discussion, when read in combination with
that section, constitutes the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences
of owning and disposing of the Securities.
You should also consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects
of the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of an investment in the Securities and any tax consequences arising under
the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
Supplemental Plan of Distribution |
CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup Inc. and the lead agent for the
sale of the Securities, will receive an underwriting discount of $0.25 for each Security sold in this offering. UBS, as agent for
sales of the Securities, expects to purchase from CGMI, and CGMI expects to sell to UBS, all of the Securities sold in this offering
for $9.75 per Security. UBS proposes to offer the Securities to the public at a price of $10.00 per Security. UBS will receive
an underwriting discount of $0.25 per Security for each Security it sells to the public. The underwriting discount will be received
by UBS and its financial advisors collectively. If all of the Securities are not sold at the initial offering price, CGMI may change
the public offering price and other selling terms.
CGMI is an affiliate of ours. Accordingly, this offering will
conform with the requirements addressing conflicts of interest when distributing the securities of an affiliate set forth in Rule
5121 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Client accounts over which Citigroup Inc. or its subsidiaries have investment
discretion will not be permitted to purchase the Securities, either directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of
the client.
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.
A portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities
will be used to hedge our obligations under the Securities. We expect to hedge our obligations under the Securities through CGMI
or other of our affiliates. CGMI or such other affiliates may profit from such expected hedging activity even if the value of the
Securities declines. This hedging activity could affect the closing level of the Underlying Index and, therefore, the value of
and your return on the Securities. For additional information on the ways in which our counterparties may hedge our obligations
under the Securities, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus.
Valuation of the Securities |
CGMI calculated the estimated value of the Securities set forth
on the cover page of this pricing supplement based on proprietary pricing models. CGMI’s proprietary pricing models generated
an estimated value for the Securities by estimating the value of a hypothetical package of financial instruments that would replicate
the payout on the Securities, which consists of a fixed-income bond (the “bond component”) and one or more derivative
instruments underlying the economic terms of the Securities (the “derivative component”). CGMI calculated the estimated
value of the bond component using a discount rate based on our internal funding rate. CGMI calculated the estimated value of the
derivative component based on a proprietary derivative-pricing model, which generated a theoretical price for the instruments that
constitute the derivative component based on various inputs, including the factors described under “Summary Risk Factors—The
value of the Securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors” in this pricing supplement,
but not
including our 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 Securities is a function of the terms
of the Securities and the inputs to CGMI’s proprietary pricing models. The range for the estimated value of the Securities
set forth on the cover page of this preliminary pricing supplement reflects terms of the Securities that have not yet been fixed
as well as uncertainty on the date of this preliminary pricing supplement about the inputs to CGMI’s proprietary pricing
models on the Trade Date.
During a temporary adjustment period immediately following
issuance of the Securities, the price, if any, at which CGMI would be willing to buy the Securities from investors, and the
value that will be indicated for the Securities on any brokerage account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates (which
value CGMI may also publish through one or more financial information vendors), will reflect a temporary upward adjustment
from the price or value that would otherwise be determined. This temporary upward adjustment represents a portion of the
hedging profit expected to be realized by CGMI or its affiliates over the term of the Securities. The amount of this
temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period. CGMI currently expects that the
temporary adjustment period will be approximately eight months, 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 Securities and other factors
that cannot be predicted. However, CGMI is not obligated to buy the Securities from investors at any time. See “Summary
Risk Factors—The Securities will not be listed on a securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to
maturity.”
