4.050% Subordinated Notes due July 30, 2022
The United States Department of the Treasury ("Treasury" or the "Selling Securityholder") is selling $894,000,000
4.050% Subordinated Notes due July 30, 2022. Citigroup will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the subordinated
notes by the Selling Securityholder.
The subordinated notes will mature on July 30, 2022. The subordinated notes will bear interest at a fixed rate equal to
4.050% per annum. Interest on the subordinated notes will be payable semi-annually on the 30th of each January and July,
commencing on July 30, 2013. The subordinated notes may be redeemed in whole, but not in part, at any time if changes
involving United States taxation occur which could require Citigroup to pay additional amounts, as described under
"Description of Subordinated Notes -- Payment of Additional Amounts" and "Description of Subordinated Notes --
Redemption for Tax Purposes" in this prospectus.
The subordinated notes will rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to Citigroup's senior indebtedness, as
described in "Description of Subordinated Notes -- Subordination" in this prospectus.
The subordinated notes are being offered globally for sale in the United States, Europe, Asia and elsewhere where it is
lawful to make such offers. The subordinated notes have no established trading market. Application will be made to list the
subordinated notes on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. See "Description of Subordinated Notes -- Listing" in this
prospectus.
Investing in the subordinated notes involves a number of risks. See "Risk Factors" in this prospectus, where
specific risks related to the subordinated notes are described, along with the other information in, or incorporated by
reference in, this prospectus before making your investment decision.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission nor the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange has approved or disapproved of these subordinated notes or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete.
Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

no responsibility for any other information that others may provide you. You should not assume that the
information contained in this prospectus, as well as information Citigroup previously filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and incorporated by reference herein, is accurate as of any date other than the date of the
relevant document. Citigroup is not, the Selling Securityholder is not, and the underwriters are not, making an
offer to sell the subordinated notes in any jurisdiction where its offer and sale is not permitted.
The Luxembourg Stock Exchange takes no responsibility for the contents of this document, makes no
representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaims any liability whatsoever for any
loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this prospectus.
This prospectus is an advertisement for the purposes of applicable measures implementing the European
Council Directive 2003/71/EC (such Directive, together with any applicable implementing measures in the
relevant home Member State under such Directive the "Prospectus Directive"). A listing prospectus prepared
pursuant to the Prospectus Directive will be published, which can be obtained from Registre de Commerce et des
Sociétés à Luxembourg so long as any of the subordinated notes are outstanding and listed on the Luxembourg
Stock Exchange.
The distribution or possession of this prospectus in or from certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law.
Persons into whose possession this prospectus comes are required by Citigroup, the Selling Securityholder and
the underwriters to inform themselves about, and to observe any such restrictions, and none of Citigroup, the
Selling Securityholder and the underwriters accepts any liability in relation thereto. See "Underwriting" in this
prospectus.
In connection with this issue, UBS Securities LLC, as stabilizing manager (or persons acting on behalf of
the stabilizing manager), may over-allot subordinated notes (provided that the aggregate principal amount of
subordinated notes allotted does not exceed 105% of the aggregate principal amount of the subordinated notes) or
effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the subordinated notes at a higher level than that
-i-


which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no obligation on the stabilizing manager (or persons acting on
its behalf) to undertake stabilization action. Any stabilization action may begin on or after the date on which
adequate public disclosure of the final terms of the subordinated notes is made and, if begun, may be
discontinued at any time but must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issuance of the subordinated
notes and 60 days after the allotment of the subordinated notes.
This prospectus is not an offer to sell these subordinated notes and is not soliciting an offer to buy these
subordinated notes in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted or where the person making the
offer or sale is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it is not permitted to make such offer or sale. See

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this prospectus and in other information incorporated by reference in this prospectus
are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"). Generally, forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead
represent only Citigroup's and management's beliefs regarding future events. Such statements may be identified
by words such as believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, may increase, may fluctuate, and similar
expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as will, should, would and could.
Such statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes
in circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those included in these statements due to a variety of
factors, including without limitation the precautionary statements included in this prospectus and the factors
listed under "Forward-Looking Statements" in Citigroup's 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2012, for the quarter ending June 30, 2012 and for the
quarter ending September 30, 2012 and described under "Risk Factors" in Citigroup's 2011 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
RISK FACTORS
Your investment in the subordinated notes will involve several risks. You should carefully consider the
following discussion of risks, the factors listed and described under "Risk Factors" in Citigroup's 2011 Annual
Report on Form 10-K, and the other information provided or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, before
deciding whether an investment in the subordinated notes is suitable for you.
The Selling Securityholder is a Federal Agency and Your Ability to Bring a Claim Against the Selling
Securityholder Under the Federal Securities Laws May Be Limited.
The doctrine of sovereign immunity, as limited by the Federal Tort Claims Act (the "FTCA"), provides that
claims may not be brought against the United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof unless
specifically permitted by act of Congress. The FTCA bars claims for fraud or misrepresentation. At least one
federal court, in a case involving a federal agency, has held that the United States may assert its sovereign
immunity to claims brought under the federal securities laws. In addition, the Selling Securityholder and its
officers, agents, and employees are exempt from liability for any violation or alleged violation of the anti-fraud
provisions of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") by virtue of
Section 3(c) thereof. Accordingly, any attempt to assert such a claim against the officers, agents or employees of
the Selling Securityholder for a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or the
Exchange Act resulting from an alleged material misstatement in or material omission from this prospectus or the
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or resulting from any other act or omission in connection
with the offering of the subordinated notes by the Selling Securityholder would likely be barred.
SELECTED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL DATA

CITIGROUP INC.
Citigroup is a global diversified financial services holding company whose businesses provide a broad range
of financial products and services to consumers, corporations, governments and institutions. Citigroup has
approximately 200 million customer accounts and does business in more than 160 countries and jurisdictions.
Citigroup's activities are conducted through the Regional Consumer Banking, Institutional Clients Group, Citi
Holdings and Corporate/Other business segments. Its businesses conduct their activities across the North
America, Latin America, Asia and Europe, Middle East and Africa regions. Citigroup's principal subsidiaries are
Citibank, N.A., Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Grupo Financiero Banamex, S.A. de C.V., each of which is a
wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Citigroup. Citigroup was incorporated in 1988 under the laws of the State of
Delaware as a corporation with perpetual duration.
Citigroup is a holding company and services its obligations primarily by earnings from its operating
subsidiaries. However, Citigroup may augment, and during the recent financial crisis did augment, its capital
through issuances of common stock, convertible preferred stock, preferred stock, equity issued through awards
under employee benefits plans, and, in the case of regulatory capital, through the issuance of subordinated debt
underlying trust preferred securities. Citigroup's subsidiaries that operate in the banking and securities businesses
can only pay dividends if they are in compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements imposed on them
by federal and state bank regulatory authorities and securities regulators. Citigroup's ability to pay dividends is
currently restricted due to its agreements with the U.S. government, generally for so long as the U.S. government
continues to hold Citi's trust preferred securities. Citigroup's subsidiaries may be party to credit agreements that
also may restrict their ability to pay dividends. Citigroup currently believes that none of these regulatory or
contractual restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends will affect Citigroup's ability to service
its own debt. Citigroup must also maintain the required capital levels of a bank holding company before it may
pay dividends on its stock.
Under the regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"), a
bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for its subsidiary banks. As a result of
this regulatory policy, the Federal Reserve might require Citigroup to commit resources to its subsidiary banks
when doing so is not otherwise in the interests of Citigroup or its shareholders or creditors.
Citigroup's principal office is located at 399 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10022, and its telephone
number is (212) 559-1000.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDER
The United States Department of the Treasury ("Treasury" or the "Selling Securityholder") acquired the
subordinated notes offered by this prospectus from Citigroup in connection with Citigroup's participation in a
loss-sharing arrangement pursuant to a master agreement entered into with Treasury, the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System on January 15,
2009 (as amended, the "Master Agreement") related to a pool of $301 billion of assets. Citigroup issued to
Treasury $4.034 billion of its perpetual preferred stock as consideration for the loss-sharing protection provided
by Treasury and $3.025 billion of its perpetual preferred stock to the FDIC as consideration for the loss-sharing
protection provided by the FDIC. Treasury's and the FDIC's perpetual preferred stock was exchanged for capital
securities issued by Citigroup Capital XXXIII on July 30, 2009 (the "Capital XXXIII Capital Securities"). On
December 23, 2009, as part of the repayment by Citigroup of funds invested by Treasury as part of TARP and an
agreement to terminate the Master Agreement (the "Termination Agreement"), Treasury cancelled $1.8 billion of
the $4.034 billion Capital XXXIII Capital Securities it held, and the FDIC agreed to transfer an additional $800
million of its remaining Capital XXXIII Capital Securities to Treasury upon the maturity of, and after deducting
any losses from, Citigroup debt issued under the FDIC's Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (the "TLGP").
The remaining $2.234 billion Capital XXXIII Capital Securities held by Treasury were exchanged on
September 29, 2010 for 89,840,000 7.875% Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Trust Preferred Securities with an
aggregate liquidation amount equal to $2,246,000,000 which were sold pursuant to an underwritten offering in
the U.S. institutional and retail fixed income markets. On December 28, 2012, the final series of Citigroup debt
issued under the TLGP matured, and the FDIC transferred $800,000,000 Capital XXXIII Capital Securities to
Treasury. Pursuant to the terms of an exchange agreement between Treasury and Citigroup, dated February 4,
2013 (the "Exchange Agreement"), the Selling Securityholder exchanged all of its Capital XXXIII Capital
Securities for $894,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.050% Subordinated Notes due July 30, 2022 issued
by Citigroup (the "subordinated notes"). The exchange took place, and the subordinated notes were issued to the
Selling Securityholder, on February 4, 2013.
The following description of the Selling Securityholder was provided by Treasury and derived from
Treasury's website. Treasury is the executive agency of the U.S. government responsible for promoting
economic prosperity and ensuring the financial security of the United States. Treasury is responsible for a wide
range of activities, such as advising the President on economic and financial issues, encouraging sustainable
economic growth and fostering improved governance in financial institutions. Treasury operates and maintains
systems that are critical to the nation's financial infrastructure, such as the production of coin and currency, the
disbursement of payments to the American public, revenue collection and the borrowing of funds necessary to
run the federal government. Treasury works with other federal agencies, foreign governments and international
financial institutions to encourage global economic growth, raise standards of living and, to the extent possible,
predict and prevent economic and financial crises. Treasury also performs a critical and far-reaching role in
enhancing national security by implementing economic sanctions against foreign threats to the United States,
identifying and targeting the financial support networks of national security threats and improving the safeguards
of our financial systems. In addition, under EESA, Treasury was given certain authority and facilities to restore
the liquidity and stability of the financial system.

Citigroup's operations are regulated by various U.S. governmental authorities, including in certain respects,
by Treasury. Additionally, Treasury has, within the past three years, owned shares of Citigroup common stock,
warrants to purchase shares of Citigroup common stock, and additional Capital XXXIII Capital Securities, all of
which have been sold in prior transactions. Under an agreement with Treasury, Citigroup has agreed to reimburse
certain expenses and indemnify Treasury for certain liabilities in connection with this offering, including any
liabilities under the Securities Act.
Governmental Immunity
The doctrine of sovereign immunity, as limited by the FTCA, provides that claims may not be brought
against the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof unless specifically permitted by act of
Congress. The FTCA bars claims for fraud or misrepresentation. The courts have held, in cases involving federal
agencies and instrumentalities, that the United States may assert its sovereign immunity to claims brought under
the federal securities laws. Thus, any attempt to assert a claim against Treasury alleging a violation of the federal
securities laws, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, resulting from an alleged material
misstatement in or material omission from this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus
is a part, or any other act or omission in connection with the offering by Treasury to which this prospectus
relates, likely would be barred. In addition, Treasury has advised us that Treasury and its members, officers,
agents and employees are exempt from liability for any violation or alleged violation of the anti-fraud provisions
of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act by virtue of Section 3(c) thereof. Accordingly, any attempt to assert such a
claim against the members, officers, agents or employees of Treasury for a violation of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act resulting from an alleged material misstatement in or material omission from this prospectus or the
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or resulting from any other act or omission in connection
with the offering of the subordinated notes likely would be barred.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Citigroup will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the subordinated notes by the Selling
Securityholder.
Citigroup expects to incur additional indebtedness in the future. Citigroup or one of its subsidiaries may
enter into a swap agreement in connection with the sale of the subordinated notes and may earn income from that
transaction.

DESCRIPTION OF THE SUBORDINATED NOTES
Set forth below is a description of the specific terms of the subordinated notes. The following description is
not intended to be complete and is qualified by the indenture, dated as of April 12, 2001, as amended, between
Citigroup and The Bank of New York Mellon, as successor trustee to Bank One Trust Company, N.A., which is
filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and by the Trust Indenture
Act of 1939, as amended. So that you may easily locate the more detailed provisions of the indenture, the
numbers in parentheses below refer to sections in the indenture. Additionally, wherever particular sections or
defined terms of the indenture are referred to, such sections or defined terms are incorporated herein by
reference as part of the statement made, and the statement is qualified in its entirety by such reference.
General
The subordinated notes offered by this prospectus are a series of subordinated notes issued under
Citigroup's subordinated debt indenture. The notes will initially be limited to an aggregate principal amount of
$894,000,000.
The subordinated notes will be issued only in fully registered form without coupons, in denominations of
$1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. All the notes are unsecured obligations of Citigroup and
will rank equally with all other unsecured and subordinated indebtedness of Citigroup, whether currently existing
or hereafter created, other than subordinated indebtedness that is designated as junior to the subordinated notes.
Citigroup may, without notice to or consent of the holders or beneficial owners of the subordinated notes,
issue additional notes having the same ranking, interest rate, maturity and other terms as the subordinated notes.
Any such additional notes issued could be considered part of the same series of notes under the indenture as the
subordinated notes.
The subordinated notes will be issued on February 8, 2013. The subordinated notes will bear interest at a
fixed rate of 4.050% per annum. Interest will accrue on the subordinated notes from February 8, 2013 and will be
payable semi-annually on each January 30 and July 30, beginning on July 30, 2013. Interest will be calculated
and paid as described in "-- Payments of Principal and Interest" in this prospectus. The subordinated notes may
be redeemed in whole, but not in part, at any time if changes involving United States taxation occur which could
require Citigroup to pay additional amounts, as described under "-- Payment of Additional Amounts" and "--
Redemption for Tax Purposes" in this prospectus.
The subordinated notes will rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to Citigroup's senior
indebtedness, as described in "-- Subordination" in this prospectus. On a consolidated basis, the aggregate
principal amount of senior indebtedness of Citigroup outstanding as of December 31, 2012 was approximately
$253.7 billion. This senior indebtedness consisted of approximately $201.7 billion of long-term debt,
approximately $11.5 billion of commercial paper and approximately $40.6 billion of other short-term
borrowings.
Because Citigroup is a holding company, the claims of creditors of Citigroup's subsidiaries will have a
priority over Citigroup's equity rights and the rights of Citigroup's creditors, including the holders of the
subordinated notes, to participate in the assets of the subsidiary upon the subsidiary's liquidation. The
subordinated notes are not subject to any sinking fund.
Payments of Principal and Interest
The subordinated notes will bear interest at an annual rate of 4.050%, payable semi-annually in arrears on
January 30 and July 30 of each year, beginning on July 30, 2013, and at maturity. Each date on which interest is
payable is called an "interest payment date." Interest will accrue from, and including, an interest payment date, or
February 8, 2013 in the case of the first interest period, to but excluding the next following interest payment date,
or the maturity date in the case of the last interest period. If an interest payment date falls on a day that is not a
Business Day, the payment due on such interest payment date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business
Day, and no further interest will accrue in respect of such postponement. Interest on the subordinated
