| Selected Risk Considerations |
| · | You may lose a significant portion 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, your payment at maturity will depend on the closing value of the worst performing underlying on the final valuation date. If the closing 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 lose 1% of the stated principal amount of the securities for every 1% by which the worst performing underlying 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. |
| · | You will not receive any contingent coupon on the contingent coupon payment date following any valuation date on which the closing value of the worst performing underlying on that valuation date is less than its coupon barrier value. |
| · | The securities are subject to the risks of all of the underlyings and will be negatively affected if any of the underlyings perform poorly, even if the other underlyings perform well. |
| · | 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 the better performing underlyings. |
| · | You will be subject to risks relating to the relationship among the underlyings. 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; the performance of the underlyings that are not the worst performing underlying is not relevant to your return on the securities at maturity or upon an earlier automatic redemption. |
| · | The securities may be automatically redeemed prior to maturity, limiting your opportunity to receive contingent coupon payments. |
| · | The securities offer downside exposure, but no upside exposure, to the underlyings. |
| · | The securities are particularly sensitive to the volatility of the closing values of the underlyings. Whether the contingent coupon will be paid, whether the securities will be automatically redeemed and whether you are repaid your principal at maturity will depend on the closing values of the worst performing underlying solely on the applicable valuation dates. |
| · | The securities 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 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 estimated value of the securities on the pricing date will be less than the issue value. For more information about the estimated value of the securities, see the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. |
| · | The value of the securities 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 economic interests that are adverse to yours as a result of its and their affiliates’ business activities. |
| · | The U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities are unclear. |
