Selected Risk Considerations

·You may not receive any return on your investment in the notes and may lose up to 10% of your investment. You will receive a positive return on your investment in the notes only if the worst performing underlying index appreciates from its initial index level to its final index level. If the final index level of the worst performing underlying index is less than its initial index level, you will lose 1% of the stated principal amount of the notes for every 1% by which its final index level is less than its initial index level, subject to a maximum loss of 10% of your investment.

·The notes do not pay interest.

·The notes are subject to the risks of both of the underlying indices and will be negatively affected if either of the underlying indices performs poorly, even if the other underlying index performs well.

·You will not benefit in any way from the performance of the better performing underlying index.

·You will be subject to risks relating to the relationship between the underlying indices. The less correlated the underlying indices, the more likely that any one underlying index will perform poorly, causing the notes to perform poorly.

·Your payment at maturity depends on the closing level of the worst performing underlying index on a single day.

·Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing in either underlying index or the stocks that constitute either underlying index.

·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.

·Sale of the notes prior to maturity may result in a loss of principal.

·The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.

·The estimated value of the notes on the pricing date will be 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.

·The Russell 2000® Index is subject to risks associated with small capitalization stocks.

·The issuer and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest with you.

·The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes are unclear.

The above summary of selected risks does not describe all of the risks associated with an investment in the notes. You should read the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and product supplement for a more complete description of risks relating to the notes.
