Autocallable Barrier
Securities Linked to the Worst Performing of the Nasdaq-100 Index® and the SPDR® S&P 500®
ETF Trust Due May 7, 2026
|
▪
|
The securities offered by this
pricing supplement are unsecured debt securities issued by Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and guaranteed by Citigroup Inc. Unlike
conventional debt securities, the securities do not pay interest, do not guarantee the repayment of principal at maturity and are subject
to potential automatic early redemption on a periodic basis on the terms described below. Your return on the securities will depend solely
on the performance of the worst performing of the underlyings specified below.
|
|
▪
|
The securities offer the potential
for automatic early redemption at a premium following the first valuation date (other than the final valuation date) on which the closing
value of the worst performing underlying on that valuation date is greater than or equal to its initial underlying value. If the securities
are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, the securities will no longer offer the opportunity to receive a premium, but instead,
at maturity, will provide for (i) the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of the worst performing underlying from its initial
underlying value at the upside participation rate specified below and (ii) contingent repayment of the stated principal amount at maturity
if the worst performing underlying depreciates, but only so long as its final underlying value is greater than or equal to its
initial underlying value specified below and a knock-in event has not occurred. However, if the securities are not automatically redeemed
prior to maturity, a knock-in event has occurred and the final underlying value of the worst performing underlying on the final valuation
date is less than its initial underlying value, you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1% by which
its final underlying value is less than its initial underlying value.
|
|
▪
|
You will be subject to risks associated
with each of the underlyings and will be negatively affected by adverse movements in any one of the underlyings. Although
you will have downside exposure to the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date, you will not receive dividends with respect
to any underlying or participate in any appreciation of any underlying.
|
|
▪
|
Investors in the securities must
be willing to accept (i) an investment that may have limited or no liquidity and (ii) the risk of not receiving any payments due under
the securities if we and Citigroup Inc. default on our obligations. All payments on the securities are subject to the credit risk
of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc.

(1) Citigroup Global Markets Holdings
Inc. currently expects that the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date will be at least $850.00 per security, which will
be less than the issue price. The estimated value of the securities is based on CGMI’s proprietary pricing models 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 securities from you at any time after issuance. See “Valuation of the
Securities” in this pricing supplement.
(2) CGMI will receive an underwriting
fee of up to $41.00 for each security sold in this offering. The total underwriting fee and proceeds to issuer in the table above give
effect to the actual total underwriting fee. For more information on the distribution of the securities, see “Supplemental Plan
of Distribution” in this pricing supplement. In addition to the underwriting fee, CGMI and its affiliates may profit from expected
hedging activity related to this offering, even if the value of the securities declines. See “Use of Proceeds and Hedging”
in the accompanying prospectus.
(3) The per security proceeds to issuer
indicated above represent the minimum per security proceeds to issuer for any security, assuming the maximum per security underwriting
fee. As noted above, the underwriting fee is variable.
Investing in the securities involves
risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities. See “Summary Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-8.

Additional Information
General. The terms of the securities are set forth in the accompanying
product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus, as supplemented by this pricing supplement. The accompanying product supplement,
prospectus supplement and prospectus contain important disclosures that are not repeated in this pricing supplement. For example, the
accompanying product supplement contains important information about how the closing value of each underlying will be determined and about
adjustments that may be made to the terms of the securities upon the occurrence of market disruption events and other specified events
with respect to each underlying. The accompanying underlying supplement contains information about each underlying that is not repeated
in this pricing supplement. It is important that you read the accompanying product supplement, underlying supplement, prospectus supplement
and prospectus together with this pricing supplement in deciding whether to invest in the securities. Certain terms used but not defined
in this pricing supplement are defined in the accompanying product supplement.
Closing Value. The “closing value” of an underlying
on any date is (i) in the case of an underlying that is an underlying index, its closing level on such date and (ii) in the case of an
underlying that is an underlying ETF, the closing price of its underlying shares on such date, as provided in the accompanying product
supplement. The “underlying shares” of an underlying ETF are its shares that are traded on a U.S. national securities exchange.
Please see the accompanying product supplement for more information.
Prospectus. The first sentence of “Description of Debt
Securities— Events of Default and Defaults” in the accompanying prospectus shall be amended to read in its entirety as follows:
Events of default under the indenture are:
|
·
|
failure of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings or Citigroup to pay required interest on any debt security of such series for 30 days;
|

Hypothetical Payment Upon Automatic Early Redemption
The following table illustrates how the amount payable per security
upon automatic early redemption will be calculated if the closing value of the worst performing underlying on any valuation date prior
to the final valuation date is greater than or equal to its initial underlying value.
If the first valuation date on which the closing value of the worst performing underlying on that valuation date is greater than or equal to its initial underlying value is...
|
...then you will receive the following payment per security upon automatic early redemption:
|
May 4, 2022
|
$1,000.00 + applicable premium = $1,000.00 + $80.00 = $1,080.00
|
May 3, 2023
|
$1,000.00 + applicable premium = $1,000.00 + $160.00 = $1,160.00
|
May 3, 2024
|
$1,000.00 + applicable premium = $1,000.00 + $240.00 = $1,240.00
|
May 5, 2025
|
$1,000.00 + applicable premium = $1,000.00 + $320.00 = $1,320.00
|
If, on any valuation date prior to the final valuation date, the
closing value of an underlying is greater than or equal to its initial underlying value, but the closing value of the other underlying
is less than its initial underlying value, you will not receive the premium indicated above following that valuation date. In order to
receive the premium indicated above, the closing value of each underlying on the applicable valuation date must be greater than
or equal to its initial underlying value.

Hypothetical Examples of the Payment at Maturity
The examples below illustrate how to determine the payment at maturity
on the securities, assuming the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity.The examples are solely for illustrative purposes,
do not show all possible outcomes and are not a prediction of any payment that may be made on the securities.
The examples below are based on the following hypothetical values and
do not reflect the actual initial underlying values or knock-in values of the underlyings. For the actual initial underlying value and
knock-in value of each underlying, 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 securities work. However, you should understand that
the actual payment at maturity on the securities will be calculated based on the actual initial underlying value and knock-in value of
each underlying, and not the hypothetical values indicated below. For ease of analysis, figures below have been rounded.

Example 1—On the final valuation date, the SPDR®
S&P 500® ETF Trust is the worst performing underlying with a final underlying value of 110.00, resulting in a 10.00%
underlying return for the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date. In this example, the final underlying value of the
worst performing underlying on the final valuation date is greater than its initial underlying value and no knock-in event has
occurred. Accordingly, at maturity, you would receive a payment per security calculated as follows:
Payment at maturity per security = $1,000 + the return amount
= $1,000 + ($1,000 × the underlying return of the worst performing
underlying × the upside participation rate)
= $1,000 + ($1,000 × 10.00% × 100.00%)
= $1,000 + $100.00
= $1,100.00
In this scenario, the worst performing underlying has appreciated from
its initial underlying value to its final underlying value and a knock-in event has not occurred, your total return at maturity
would equal the underlying return of the worst performing underlying multiplied by the upside participation rate.
Example 2—On the final valuation date, the Nasdaq-100 Index®
is the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date with a final underlying value of 80.00%, resulting in a -20.00% underlying
return. In this scenario, the final underlying value of the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date is less than its initial
underlying value and a knock-in event has not occurred. Accordingly, at maturity, you would receive the stated principal amount
of the securities.
Example 3— On the final valuation date, the Nasdaq-100
Index® is the worst performing underlying with a final underlying value of 20.00, resulting in a -80.00% underlying return
for the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date. In this example, the final underlying value of the
Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.
|
|
worst performing underlying on the final valuation date is less than
its initial underlying value and a knock-in event has occurred. Accordingly, at maturity, you would receive a payment per security
calculated as follows:
Payment at maturity per security = $1,000 + ($1,000 × the underlying
return of the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date)
= $1,000 + ($1,000 × -80.00%)
= $1,000 + -$800.00
= $200.00
In this scenario, the worst performing underlying on the final valuation
date has depreciated from its initial underlying value to its final underlying value and a knock-in event has occurred. As a result, your
total return at maturity in this scenario would be negative and would reflect 1-to-1 exposure to the negative performance of the worst
performing underlying on the final valuation date.

Summary Risk Factors
An investment in the securities is significantly riskier than an investment
in conventional debt securities. The securities are subject to all of the risks associated with an investment in our conventional debt
securities (guaranteed by Citigroup Inc.), including the risk that we and Citigroup Inc. may default on our obligations under the securities,
and are also subject to risks associated with each underlying. Accordingly, the securities are suitable only for investors who are capable
of understanding the complexities and risks of the securities. You should consult your own financial, tax and legal advisors as to the
risks of an investment in the securities and the suitability of the securities in light of your particular circumstances.
The following is a summary of certain key risk factors for investors
in the securities. You should read this summary together with the more detailed description of risks relating to an investment in the
securities contained in the section “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities” beginning on page EA-7 in the accompanying product
supplement. You should also carefully read the risk factors included in the accompanying prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated
by reference in the accompanying prospectus, including Citigroup Inc.’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which describe risks relating to the business of Citigroup Inc. more generally.
|
§
|
You may lose some or all of your investment. Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not provide for the repayment
of the stated principal amount at maturity in all circumstances. If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, the
final underlying value of the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date is less than its initial underlying value and a
knock-in event has occurred, meaning the closing value of at least one of the underlyings was less than its knock-in value on at least
one scheduled trading day during the period from but excluding the pricing date to and including the final valuation date, you will be
fully exposed to any depreciation of the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date. If the final underlying value of the
worst performing underlying on the final valuation date is less than its initial underlying value and a knock-in event has occurred, you
will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1% by which the worst performing underlying on the final valuation
date has declined from its initial underlying value. There is no minimum payment at maturity on the securities, and you may lose up to
all of your investment.
|
|
§
|
The securities will be adversely affected by volatility in the closing values of the underlyings. The more volatile the closing
values of the underlyings, the more likely it is that a knock-in event will occur and that, if the securities are not automatically redeemed
prior to maturity, you will have full downside exposure to any depreciation of the worst performing underlying on the final valuation
date at maturity. A knock-in event will occur if the closing value of the worst performing underlying on any scheduled trading day during
the observation period is less than its knock-in value on that scheduled trading day. You should understand that the closing value of
each underlying has historically been highly volatile.
|
|
§
|
The securities do not pay interest. Unlike conventional debt securities, the securities do not pay interest prior to maturity.
You should not invest in the securities if you seek current income during the term of the securities.
|
|
§
|
The securities are subject to heightened risk because they have multiple underlyings. The securities are more risky than similar
investments that may be available with only one underlying. With multiple underlyings, there is a greater chance that any one underlying
will perform poorly, adversely affecting your return on the securities.
|
|
§
|
The securities are subject to the risks of each of the underlyings and will be negatively affected if any one underlying performs
poorly. You are subject to risks associated with each of the underlyings. If any one underlying performs poorly, you will be negatively
affected. The securities are not linked to a basket composed of the underlyings, where the blended performance of the underlyings would
be better than the performance of the worst performing underlying alone. Instead, you are subject to the full risks of whichever of the
underlyings is the worst performing underlying.
|
|
§
|
You will not benefit in any way from the performance of any better performing underlying. The return on the securities depends
solely on the performance of the worst performing underlying, and you will not benefit in any way from the performance of any better performing
underlying.
|
|
§
|
You will be subject to risks relating to the relationship between the underlyings. It is preferable from your perspective for
the underlyings to be correlated with each other, in the sense that their closing values tend to increase or decrease at similar times
and by similar magnitudes. By investing in the securities, you assume the risk that the underlyings will not exhibit this relationship.
The less correlated the underlyings, the more likely it is that any one of the underlyings will perform poorly over the term of the securities.
All that is necessary for the securities to perform poorly is for one of the underlyings to perform poorly. It is impossible to predict
what the relationship between the underlyings will be over the term of the securities. The underlyings differ in significant ways and,
therefore, may not be correlated with each other.
|
|
§
|
The securities may be automatically redeemed prior to maturity, limiting the term of the securities. If the closing value of
the worst performing underlying on any valuation date (other than the final valuation date) is greater than or equal to its initial underlying
value, the securities will be automatically redeemed. If the securities are automatically redeemed following any valuation date prior
to the final valuation date, they will cease to be outstanding and you will not receive the premium applicable to any later valuation
date or have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of any underlying. Moreover, you may not be able to reinvest your funds
in another investment that provides a similar yield with a similar level of risk.
|
|
§
|
You will not receive dividends or have any other rights with respect to the underlyings. You will not receive any dividends
with respect to the underlyings. This lost dividend yield may be significant over the term of the securities. The payment scenarios described
in this pricing supplement do not show any effect of such lost dividend yield over the term of the securities. In addition, you will not
have voting rights or any other rights with respect to the underlyings or the stocks included in the underlyings.
|
|
§
|
The securities are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. If we default on
our obligations under the securities and Citigroup Inc. defaults on its guarantee obligations, you may not receive anything owed to you
under the securities.
|

|
|
|
§
|
The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity. The securities
will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore, there may be little or no secondary market for the securities. CGMI currently
intends to make a secondary market in relation to the securities and to provide an indicative bid price for the securities on a daily
basis. Any indicative bid price for the securities provided by CGMI will be determined in CGMI’s sole discretion, taking into account
prevailing market conditions and other relevant factors, and will not be a representation by CGMI that the securities can be sold at that
price, or at all. CGMI may suspend or terminate making a market and providing indicative bid prices without notice, at any time and for
any reason. If CGMI suspends or terminates making a market, there may be no secondary market at all for the securities because it is likely
that CGMI will be the only broker-dealer that is willing to buy your securities prior to maturity. Accordingly, an investor must be prepared
to hold the securities until maturity.
|
|
§
|
The estimated value of the securities on the pricing date, based on CGMI’s proprietary pricing models and our internal funding
rate, is less than the issue price. The difference is attributable to certain costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging
the securities that are included in the issue price. These costs include (i) any selling concessions or other fees paid in connection
with the offering of the securities, (ii) hedging and other costs incurred by us and our affiliates in connection with the offering of
the securities and (iii) the expected profit (which may be more or less than actual profit) to CGMI or other of our affiliates in connection
with hedging our obligations under the securities. These costs adversely affect the economic terms of the securities because, if they
were lower, the economic terms of the securities would be more favorable to you. The economic terms of the securities are also likely
to be adversely affected by the use of our internal funding rate, rather than our secondary market rate, to price the securities. See
“The estimated value of the securities would be lower if it were calculated based on our secondary market rate” below.
|
|
§
|
The estimated value of the securities was determined for us by our affiliate using proprietary pricing models. CGMI derived
the estimated value disclosed on the cover page of this pricing supplement from its proprietary pricing models. In doing so, it may have
made discretionary judgments about the inputs to its models, such as the volatility of, and correlation between, the closing values of
the underlyings, dividend yields on the underlyings 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 our secondary
market rate, which is the rate that CGMI will use in determining the value of the securities for purposes of any purchases of the securities
from you in the secondary market. If the estimated value included in this pricing supplement were based on our secondary market rate,
rather than our internal funding rate, it would likely be lower. We determine our internal funding rate based on factors such as the costs
associated with the securities, which are generally higher than the costs associated with conventional debt securities, and our liquidity
needs and preferences. Our internal funding rate is not an interest rate that is payable on the securities.
|
Because there is not an active market for traded instruments
referencing our outstanding debt obligations, CGMI determines our secondary market rate based on the market price of traded instruments
referencing the debt obligations of Citigroup Inc., our parent company and the guarantor of all payments due on the securities, but subject
to adjustments that CGMI makes in its sole discretion. As a result, our secondary market rate is not a market-determined measure of our
creditworthiness, but rather reflects the market’s perception of our parent company’s creditworthiness as adjusted for discretionary
factors such as CGMI’s preferences with respect to purchasing the securities prior to maturity.
|
§
|
The estimated value of the securities is not an indication of the price, if any, at which CGMI or any other person may be willing
to buy the securities from you in the secondary market. Any such secondary market price will fluctuate over the term of the securities
based on the market and other factors described in the next risk factor. Moreover, unlike the estimated value included in this pricing
supplement, any value of the securities determined for purposes of a secondary market transaction will be based on our secondary market
rate, which will likely result in a lower value for the securities than if our internal funding rate were used. In addition, any secondary
market price for the securities will be reduced by a bid-ask spread, which may vary depending on the aggregate stated principal amount
of the securities to be purchased in the secondary market transaction, and the expected cost of unwinding related hedging transactions.
As a result, it is likely that any secondary market price for the securities will be less than the issue price.
|
|
§
|
The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based on many unpredictable factors. The value of your securities
prior to maturity will fluctuate based on the closing values of the underlyings, the volatility of, and correlation between, the closing
values of the underlyings, dividend yields on the underlyings, interest rates generally, the time remaining to maturity and our and Citigroup
Inc.’s creditworthiness, as reflected in our secondary market rate, among other factors described under “Risk Factors Relating
to the Securities—Risk Factors Relating to All Securities—The value of your securities prior to maturity will fluctuate based
on many unpredictable factors” in the accompanying product supplement. Changes in the closing values of the underlyings may not
result in a comparable change in the value of your securities. You should understand that the value of your securities at any time prior
to maturity may be significantly less than the issue price.
|
|
§
|
Immediately following issuance, any secondary market bid price provided by CGMI, and the value that will be indicated on any brokerage
account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates, will reflect a temporary upward adjustment. The amount of this temporary upward
adjustment will steadily decline to zero over the temporary adjustment period. See “Valuation of the Securities” in this pricing
supplement.

§
|
Our offering of the securities is not a recommendation of any underlying. The fact that we are offering the securities does
not mean that we believe that investing in an instrument linked to the underlyings 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 underlyings or in
instruments related to the underlyings, and may publish research or express opinions, that in each case are inconsistent with an investment
linked to the underlyings. These and other activities of our affiliates may affect the closing values of the underlyings in a way that
negatively affects the value of and your return on the securities.
|
|
§
|
The closing value of an underlying may be adversely affected by our or our affiliates’ hedging and other trading activities.
We expect to hedge our obligations under the securities through CGMI or other of our affiliates, who may take positions in the underlyings
or in financial instruments related to the underlyings and may adjust such positions during the term of the securities. Our affiliates
also take positions in the underlyings or in financial instruments related to the underlyings on a regular basis (taking long or short
positions or both), for their accounts, for other accounts under their management or to facilitate transactions on behalf of customers.
These activities could affect the closing values of the underlyings in a way that negatively affects the value of and your return on the
securities. They could also result in substantial returns for us or our affiliates while the value of the securities declines.
|
|
§
|
We and our affiliates may have economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result of our affiliates’ business activities.
Our affiliates engage in business activities with a wide range of companies. These activities include extending loans, making and facilitating
investments, underwriting securities offerings and providing advisory services. These activities could involve or affect the underlyings
in a way that negatively affects the value of and your return on the securities. They could also result in substantial returns for us
or our affiliates while the value of the securities declines. In addition, in the course of this business, we or our affiliates may acquire
non-public information, which will not be disclosed to you.
|
|
§
|
The calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important determinations with respect to the securities. If
certain events occur during the term of the securities, such as market disruption events and other events with respect to an underlying,
CGMI, as calculation agent, will be required to make discretionary judgments that could significantly affect your return on the securities.
In making these judgments, the calculation agent’s interests as an affiliate of ours could be adverse to your interests as a holder
of the securities. See “Risk Factors Relating to the Securities—Risk Factors Relating to All Securities—The calculation
agent, which is an affiliate of ours, will make important determinations with respect to the securities” in the accompanying product
supplement.

§
|
In the case of an underlying that is an underlying ETF, even if the underlying pays a dividend that it identifies as special or
extraordinary, no adjustment will be required under the securities for that dividend unless it meets the criteria specified in the accompanying
product supplement. In general, an adjustment will not be made under the terms of the securities for any cash dividend paid by the
underlying unless the amount of the dividend per share, together with any other dividends paid in the same quarter, exceeds the dividend
paid per share in the most recent quarter by an amount equal to at least 10% of the closing value of that underlying on the date of declaration
of the dividend. Any dividend will reduce the closing value of the underlying by the amount of the dividend per share. If the underlying
pays any dividend for which an adjustment is not made under the terms of the securities, holders of the securities will be adversely affected.
See “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an Underlying Company or an Underlying
ETF—Dilution and Reorganization Adjustments—Certain Extraordinary Cash Dividends” in the accompanying product supplement.
|
|
§
|
In the case of an underlying that is an underlying ETF, the securities will not be adjusted for all events that may have a dilutive
effect on or otherwise adversely affect the closing value of the underlying. For example, we will not make any adjustment for ordinary
dividends or extraordinary dividends that do not meet the criteria described above, partial tender offers or additional underlying share
issuances. Moreover, the adjustments we do make may not fully offset the dilutive or adverse effect of the particular event. Investors
in the securities may be adversely affected by such an event in a circumstance in which a direct holder of the underlying shares of the
underlying would not.
|
|
§
|
In the case of an underlying that is an underlying ETF, the securities may become linked to an underlying other than the original
underlying upon the occurrence of a reorganization event or upon the delisting of the underlying shares of that original underlying.
For example, if the underlying enters into a merger agreement that provides for holders of its underlying shares to receive shares of
another entity and such shares are marketable securities, the closing value of that underlying following consummation of the merger will
be based on the value of such other shares. Additionally, if the underlying shares of the underlying are delisted, the calculation agent
may select a successor underlying. See “Description of the Securities—Certain Additional Terms for Securities Linked to an
Underlying Company or an Underlying ETF” in the accompanying product supplement.
|
|
§
|
In the case of the underlying that is an underlying ETF, the value and performance of the underlying shares of the underlying may
not completely track the performance of the underlying index that the underlying seeks to track or the net asset value per share of the
underlying. In the case of the underlying that is an underlying ETF, the underlying does not fully replicate the underlying index
that it seeks to track and may hold securities different from those included in its underlying index. In addition, the performance of
the underlying will reflect additional transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of its underlying index. All
of these factors may lead to a lack of correlation between the performance of the underlying and its underlying index. In addition, corporate
actions with respect to the equity securities held by the underlying (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the variance between the
performance of the underlying and its underlying index. Finally, because the underlying shares are traded on an exchange and are subject
to market supply and investor demand, the closing value of the underlying may differ from the net asset value per share of the underlying.
|
During periods of market volatility, securities included in
the underlying’s underlying index may be unavailable in the secondary market, market participants may be unable to calculate accurately
the net asset value per share of the underlying and the liquidity of the underlying may be adversely affected. This kind of market volatility
may also disrupt the ability of market participants to create and redeem shares of the underlying. Further, market volatility may adversely
affect, sometimes materially, the price at which market
Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc.
|
|
participants are willing to buy and sell the underlying shares.
As a result, under these circumstances, the closing value of the underlying may vary substantially from the net asset value per share
of the underlying. For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the underlying may not correlate with the performance of its underlying
index and/or its net asset value per share, which could materially and adversely affect the value of the securities and/or reduce your
return on the securities.
|
§
|
Changes that affect the underlyings may affect the value of your securities. The sponsors of the underlyings may at any time
make methodological changes or other changes in the manner in which they operate that could affect the values of the underlyings. We are
not affiliated with any such underlying sponsor and, accordingly, we have no control over any changes any such sponsor may make. Such
changes could adversely affect the performance of the underlyings and the value of and your return on 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.
Even if the treatment of the securities as prepaid forward contracts is respected, a security may be treated as a “constructive
ownership transaction,” with potentially adverse consequences described below under “United States Federal Tax Considerations.”
Moreover, future legislation, Treasury regulations or IRS guidance could adversely affect the U.S. federal tax treatment of the securities,
possibly retroactively.
|
If you are a non-U.S. investor, you should
review the discussion of withholding tax issues in “United States Federal Tax Considerations—Non-U.S. Holders” below.
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.

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, 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. 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 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 gain or loss equal to the difference
between the amount realized and your tax basis in the security. Subject to the discussion below concerning the potential application of
the “constructive ownership” rules under Section 1260 of the Code, any gain or loss recognized upon a sale, exchange or retirement
of a security should be long-term capital gain or loss if you held the security for more than one year.
|
Even if the treatment of the securities as prepaid forward contracts
is respected, your purchase of a security may be treated as entry into a “constructive ownership transaction,” within the
meaning of Section 1260 of the Code. In that case, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain you would otherwise recognize in respect
of your securities would be recharacterized as ordinary income to the extent such gain exceeded the “net underlying long-term capital
gain.” Any long-term capital gain recharacterized as ordinary income under Section 1260 would be treated as accruing at a constant
rate over the period you held your securities, and you would be subject to an interest charge in respect of the deemed tax liability on
the income treated as accruing in prior tax years. Due to the lack of governing authority under Section 1260, our counsel is not able
to opine as to whether or how Section 1260 applies to the securities. You should read the section entitled “United States Federal
Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Potential Application of Section 1260 of the Code” in the accompanying
product supplement for additional information and consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application of the “constructive
ownership” rule.
We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS regarding the treatment
of the securities. An alternative characterization of the securities could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of ownership
and disposition of the securities, including the timing and character of income recognized. In addition, the U.S. Treasury Department
and the IRS have requested comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts”
and similar financial instruments and have indicated that such transactions may be the subject of future regulations or other guidance.
Furthermore, members of Congress have proposed legislative changes to the tax treatment of derivative contracts. Any legislation, Treasury
regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences
of an investment in the securities, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax adviser regarding possible alternative
tax treatments of the securities and potential changes in applicable law.
Non-U.S. Holders. Subject to the discussions below and in “United
States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement, 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.
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, 2023 that do not have a “delta” of one.
Based on the terms of the securities and representations provided by us as of the date of this preliminary pricing supplement, our counsel
is of the opinion that the securities should not be treated as transactions that have a “delta” of one within the meaning
of the regulations with respect to any U.S. Underlying Equity and, therefore, should not be subject to withholding tax under Section 871(m).
However, the final determination regarding the treatment of the securities under Section 871(m) will be made as of the pricing date for
the securities, and it is possible that the securities will be subject to withholding tax under Section 871(m) based on the circumstances
as of that date.
A determination that the securities are not subject to Section 871(m)
is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may disagree with this treatment. Moreover, Section 871(m) is complex and its application may depend
on your particular circumstances, including your other transactions. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the potential application
of Section 871(m) to the securities.
If withholding tax applies to the securities, we will not be required
to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts withheld.
You should read the section entitled “United States Federal
Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement. The preceding discussion, when read in combination with that section,
constitutes the full opinion of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP regarding the material U.S. federal tax consequences of owning and disposing
of the securities.
You should also consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of
the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of an investment in the securities and any tax consequences arising under the laws
of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution
CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. and the
underwriter of the sale of the securities, is acting as principal and will receive an underwriting fee of up to $41.00 for each security
sold in this offering. The actual underwriting fee will be equal to the selling concession provided to selected dealers, as described
in this paragraph. From this underwriting fee, CGMI will pay selected dealers not affiliated with CGMI a variable selling concession of
up to $41.00 for each security they sell. For the avoidance of doubt, any fees or selling concessions described in this pricing supplement
will not be rebated if the securities are automatically redeemed 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 Securities
CGMI calculated the estimated value of the securities set forth on the
cover page of this pricing supplement based on proprietary pricing models. CGMI’s proprietary pricing models generated an estimated
value for the securities by estimating the value of a hypothetical package of financial instruments that would replicate the payout on
the securities, which consists of a fixed-income bond (the “bond component”) and one or more derivative instruments underlying
the economic terms of the securities (the “derivative component”). CGMI calculated the estimated value of the bond component
using a discount rate based on our internal funding rate. CGMI calculated the estimated value of the derivative component based on a proprietary
derivative-pricing model, which generated a theoretical price for the instruments that constitute the derivative component based on various
inputs, including the factors described under “Summary Risk Factors—The value of the securities prior to maturity will fluctuate
based on many unpredictable factors” in this pricing supplement, but not including our or Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness.
These inputs may be market-observable or may be based on assumptions made by CGMI in its discretionary judgment.
The estimated value of the securities is a function of the terms of
the securities 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 securities will be on the pricing date because it is uncertain what the values of the inputs
to CGMI’s proprietary pricing models will be on the pricing date.
For a period of approximately four months following issuance of the
securities, the price, if any, at which CGMI would be willing to buy the securities from investors, and the value that will be indicated
for the securities on any brokerage account statements prepared by CGMI or its affiliates (which value CGMI may also publish through one
or more financial information vendors), will reflect a temporary upward adjustment from the price or value that would otherwise be determined.
This temporary upward adjustment represents a portion of the hedging profit expected to be realized by CGMI or its affiliates over the
term of the securities. The amount of this temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero on a straight-line basis over the four-month
temporary adjustment period. However, CGMI is not obligated to buy the securities from investors at any time. See “Summary Risk
Factors—The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.”
