(1) The issue price paid by eligible institutional investors and investors
purchasing the notes in fee-based advisory accounts will vary based on then-current market conditions and the negotiated price determined
at the time of each sale, provided however that the issue price for such investors will not be less than $970.00 per note and will not
be more than $1,000 per note. The issue price for such investors reflects a forgone selling concession or underwriting fee with respect
to such sales as described in footnote (2) below. See “General Information—Fees and selling concessions” in this pricing
supplement.
(2) CGMI will receive an underwriting fee of up to $30.00 per note,
and from such underwriting fee will allow selected dealers a selling concession of up to $30.00 per note depending on market conditions
that are relevant to the value of the notes at the time an order to purchase the notes is submitted to CGMI. Dealers who purchase the
notes for sales to eligible institutional investors and/or to investors purchasing the notes in fee-based advisory accounts may forgo
some or all selling concessions, and CGMI may forgo some or all of the underwriting fee for sales it makes to eligible institutional
investors and/or to investors purchasing the notes in fee-based advisory accounts. The per note underwriting fee in the table above represents
the maximum underwriting fee payable per note. The total underwriting fee and proceeds to issuer in the table above give effect to the
actual total underwriting fee. You should refer to “Risk Factors” and “General Information—Fees and selling concessions”
in this pricing supplement for more information. 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 notes declines. See “Use of Proceeds and Hedging” in
the accompanying prospectus.
Investing in the notes involves risks. See “Risk Factors”
beginning on page PS-2.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities
commission has approved or disapproved of the notes or determined that this pricing supplement and the accompanying prospectus supplement

Risk Factors
The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key
risk factors for investors in the notes. You should read the risk factors below together with 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 our business
more generally. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors before you decide to invest in
the notes.
| § | The notes do not pay interest. The notes
are not appropriate for investors who require regular payments of interest. |
| § | The notes may be redeemed at our option prior
to the maturity date. We may redeem the notes, in whole but not in part, on any redemption date, upon not less than five business
days’ notice. In the event that we redeem the notes, you will receive the accreted value as of the relevant redemption date. If
we elect to redeem the notes prior to maturity, we will do so at a time that is advantageous for us but when it may not be in your interest
for us to do so. For example, we may do so at a time when market interest rates have fallen, such that you are unable to reinvest your
funds in an investment with a yield as great as the accrual yield on the notes. |
| § | The notes are subject to the credit risk
of Citigroup Inc., and any actual or anticipated changes to its credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the value of the
notes. You are subject to the credit risk of Citigroup Inc. If Citigroup Inc. defaults on its obligations under the notes, your investment
would be at risk and you could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the value of the notes will be affected by changes in
the market’s view of Citigroup Inc.’s creditworthiness. Any decline, or anticipated decline, in Citigroup Inc.’s credit
ratings or any increase, or anticipated increase, in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking Citigroup Inc. credit risk is
likely to adversely affect the value of the notes. |
| § | The notes will not be listed on any securities
exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Therefore,
there may be little or no secondary market for the notes. CGMI currently intends to make a secondary market in relation to the notes and
to provide an indicative bid price for the notes on a daily basis. Any indicative bid price for the notes 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 notes 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 notes because it is likely that CGMI will be the only broker-dealer that is willing to buy your notes prior to maturity.
Accordingly, an investor must be prepared to hold the notes until 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 steadily decline to zero over the
temporary adjustment period. See “General Information—Temporary adjustment period” in this pricing supplement. |
| § | The notes are riskier than notes with a shorter
term. The notes are relatively long-dated, subject to our call right. Because the notes are relatively long-dated, many of the risks
of the notes are heightened as compared to notes with a shorter term, because you will be subject to those risks for a longer period of
time. In addition, the value of a longer-dated note is typically less than the value of an otherwise comparable note with a shorter term. |
| § | Secondary market sales of the notes may result
in a loss. You will be entitled to receive the then-applicable accreted value of your notes, subject to the credit risk of Citigroup
Inc., only if you hold the notes to maturity or earlier redemption at our option. If you |
are able to sell your notes in the
secondary market prior to such time, you are likely to receive less than the then-applicable accreted value of the notes.
| § | The inclusion of underwriting fees and projected
profit from hedging in the issue price is likely to adversely affect secondary market prices. Assuming no changes in market conditions
or other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which CGMI may be willing to purchase the notes in secondary market transactions will
likely be lower than the then-applicable accreted value since the issue price of the notes will include, and secondary market prices are
likely to exclude, any underwriting fees paid with respect to the notes, as well as the cost of hedging our obligations under the notes.
The cost of hedging includes the projected profit that our affiliates may realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in
managing the hedging transactions. The secondary market prices for the notes are also likely to be reduced by the costs of unwinding the
related hedging transactions. Our affiliates may realize a profit from the expected hedging activity even if the value of the notes declines.
In addition, any secondary market prices for the notes may differ from values determined by pricing models used by CGMI, as a result of
dealer discounts, mark-ups or other transaction costs. |
| § | The price at which you may be able to sell
your notes prior to maturity will depend on a number of factors and may be substantially less than the then-applicable accreted value.
A number of factors will influence the value of the notes in any secondary market that may develop and the price at which CGMI may
be willing to purchase the notes in any such secondary market, including: interest rates in the market and the volatility of such rates,
the time remaining to maturity of the notes, hedging activities by our affiliates, any fees and projected hedging fees and profits, expectations
about whether we are likely to redeem the notes and any actual or anticipated changes in the credit ratings, financial condition and results
of Citigroup Inc. The value of the notes will vary and is likely to be less than the then-applicable accreted value at any time prior
to maturity or redemption, and sale of the notes prior to maturity or redemption may result in a loss. |
| § | The U.S. federal tax consequences of an assumption
of the notes are unclear. The notes may be assumed by a successor issuer, as discussed in “Additional Terms of the Notes.”
The law regarding whether or not such an assumption would be considered a taxable modification of the notes is not entirely clear and,
if the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were to treat the assumption as a taxable modification, a U.S. Holder would generally
be required to recognize gain (if any) on the notes and the timing and character of income recognized with respect to the notes after
the assumption could be affected significantly. You should read carefully the discussion under “United States Federal Income Tax
Considerations” in this pricing supplement. You should also consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences
of an assumption of the notes. |
Additional
Terms of the Notes
Successor Issuer
The notes are intended
to qualify as eligible debt securities for purposes of the Federal Reserve's total loss-absorbing capacity (“TLAC”) rule.
As a result, in the event of a Citigroup Inc. bankruptcy, Citigroup Inc.'s losses and any losses incurred by its subsidiaries would be
imposed first on Citigroup Inc.’s shareholders and then on its unsecured creditors, including the holders of the notes. Further,
in a bankruptcy proceeding of Citigroup Inc. any value realized by holders of the notes may not be sufficient to repay the amounts owed
on the notes. For more information about the consequences of “TLAC” on the notes, you should refer to the “Citigroup
Inc.” section beginning on page 12 of the accompanying prospectus.
Upon at least 15 business
days’ notice, any wholly owned subsidiary (the “successor issuer”) of Citigroup Inc. may, without the consent of any
holder of the notes, assume all of Citigroup Inc.’s obligations under the notes, and in such event Citigroup Inc. shall be released
from its obligations under the notes (in each case, except as described below), subject to the following conditions:
| (a) | Citigroup Inc. shall enter into a supplemental indenture under which Citigroup Inc. fully and
unconditionally guarantees all payments on the notes when due, agrees to comply with the covenants described in the section “Description
of Debt Securities—Covenants—Limitations on Liens” and “—Limitations on Mergers and Sales of Assets”
in the accompanying prospectus as applied to itself and retains certain reporting obligations under the indenture; |
| (b) | the successor issuer shall be organized under the laws of the United States of America, any
State thereof or the District of Columbia; and |
| (c) | immediately after giving effect to such assumption of obligations, no default or event of default
shall have occurred and be continuing. |
Upon any such assumption,
the successor issuer shall succeed to and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, Citigroup Inc. under the notes
with the same effect as if such successor issuer had been named as the original issuer of the notes, and Citigroup Inc. shall be relieved
from all obligations and covenants under the notes, except that Citigroup Inc. shall have the obligations described in clause (a) above.
For the avoidance of doubt, the successor issuer shall not be responsible for Citigroup Inc.’s compliance with the covenants described
in clause (a) above.
If a successor issuer
assumes the obligations of Citigroup Inc. under the notes as described above, events of bankruptcy or insolvency or resolution proceedings
relating to Citigroup Inc. will not constitute an event of default with respect to the notes, nor will any breach of a covenant by Citigroup
Inc. (other than payment default). Therefore, if a successor issuer assumes the obligations of Citigroup Inc. under the notes as described
above, events of bankruptcy or insolvency or resolution proceedings relating to Citigroup Inc. (in the absence of any such event occurring
with respect to the successor issuer) will not give holders the right to declare the notes to be due and payable, and a
breach of a covenant by
Citigroup Inc. (including the covenants described in the section “Description of Debt Securities—Covenants—Limitations
on Liens” and “—Limitations on Mergers and Sales of Assets” in the accompanying prospectus), other than payment
default, will not give holders the right to declare the notes to be due and payable. Furthermore, if a successor issuer assumes the obligations
of Citigroup Inc. under the notes as described above, it will not be an event of default under the notes if the guarantee of the notes
by Citigroup Inc. ceases to be in full force and effect or if Citigroup Inc. repudiates the guarantee.
There are no restrictions
on which subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. may be a successor issuer other than as specifically set forth above. The successor issuer may be
less creditworthy than Citigroup Inc. and/or may have no or nominal assets. If Citigroup Inc. is resolved in bankruptcy, insolvency or
other resolution proceedings and the notes are not contemporaneously declared due and payable, and if the successor issuer is subsequently
resolved in later bankruptcy, insolvency or other resolution proceedings, the value you receive on the notes may be significantly less
than what you would have received had the notes been declared due and payable immediately upon certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
or resolution proceedings relating to Citigroup Inc. or the breach of a covenant by Citigroup Inc.
The notes are “specified
securities” for purposes of the indenture. The terms set forth above do not apply to all securities issued under the indenture,
but only to the notes offered by this pricing supplement (and similar terms may apply to other securities issued by Citigroup Inc. that
are identified as “specified securities” in the applicable pricing supplement).
You should read carefully
the discussion of U.S. federal tax consequences of any such assumption under “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in
this pricing supplement.
Events of Default and
Acceleration
In case an event of default
(as described in the accompanying prospectus) with respect to the notes shall have occurred and be continuing, the amount declared due
and payable upon any acceleration of the notes will be determined by the calculation agent and will equal, for each note, the accreted
value determined as described herein as of the date of acceleration. Such amount as so determined will constitute the final payment on
the notes, and no additional amounts will accrue with respect to the notes following the date of acceleration.
In case of default under
the notes, in respect of any payment due under the notes, no interest will accrue on such overdue payment either before or after the maturity
date.
General Information |
Temporary adjustment period: |
For a period of approximately six months following issuance of the notes, the price, if any, at which CGMI would be willing to buy the notes from investors, and the value that will be indicated for the notes 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 notes. The amount of this temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero on a straight-line basis over the six-month temporary adjustment period. However, CGMI is not obligated to buy the notes from investors at any time. See “Risk Factors—The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and you may not be able to sell them prior to maturity.” |
U.S. federal income tax considerations: |
The notes will be treated as debt instruments that are issued with original
issue discount (and without any qualified stated interest) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, U.S. Holders (as defined
in the accompanying prospectus supplement) will be required to include original issue discount in their taxable income over the term of
the notes on a constant-yield basis, as described in the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement called “United States
Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Original Issue Discount.” The amount of original issue discount
included in each year on a constant yield basis will be lower than the amount determined by reference to the yield implied by the redemption
schedule described above in “Key Terms,” unless the notes remain outstanding to maturity.
Under their terms, the notes may be assumed by a successor issuer, in
which case we will guarantee the successor issuer’s payment obligations under the notes. See “Additional Terms of the Notes.”
We intend to treat such an assumption as not giving rise to a taxable modification of the notes. While our counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell
LLP, believes this treatment of such an assumption is reasonable under current law and based on the expected circumstances of the assumption,
it has not rendered an opinion regarding such treatment in light of the lack of clear authority addressing the consequences of such an
assumption. Provided that an assumption of the notes is not a taxable modification, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the notes
would not be affected by the assumption. However, if the IRS were to treat an assumption of the notes as a taxable modification, the timing
and character of income recognized with respect to the notes after the assumption could be affected significantly, depending on circumstances
at the time of the assumption. Moreover, a U.S. Holder (as defined in the accompanying prospectus supplement) would generally be required
to recognize gain (if any) with respect to the notes at the time of the assumption in the same manner as described in the accompanying
prospectus supplement in respect of a sale or other taxable disposition of the notes. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the
consequences of an assumption of the notes.
Both U.S. and non-U.S. persons considering an investment
in the notes should read the discussion under “United States Federal Tax Considerations,” and in particular the sections entitled
“United States Federal Tax Considerations—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders,” “—Tax Consequences to Non-U.S.
Holders” and “—FATCA” in the accompanying prospectus supplement for more information regarding the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of an investment in the notes.
|
Trustee: |
The Bank of New York Mellon (as trustee under an indenture dated November 13, 2013) will serve as trustee for the notes. |
Use of proceeds and hedging: |
The net proceeds received from the sale of the notes will be used for
general corporate purposes and, in part, in connection with hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates.
Hedging activities related to the notes by one or more of our affiliates
involves trading in one or more instruments, such as options, swaps and/or futures, and/or taking positions in any other available securities
or instruments that we may wish to use in connection with such hedging and may include adjustments to such positions during the term of
the notes. It is possible that our affiliates may profit from this hedging activity, even if the value of the notes declines. Profit or
loss from this hedging activity could affect the price at which Citigroup Inc.’s affiliate, CGMI, may be willing to purchase your
notes in the secondary market. For further information on our use of proceeds and hedging, see “Use of Proceeds and Hedging”
in the accompanying prospectus.
|
ERISA and IRA purchase considerations: |
Please refer to “Benefit Plan Investor Considerations” in the accompanying prospectus supplement for important information for investors that are ERISA or other benefit plans or whose underlying assets include assets of such plans. |
Fees and selling concessions: |
The issue price is $1,000 per note; provided that the issue price for
an eligible institutional investor or an investor purchasing the notes in a fee-based advisory account will vary based on then-current
market conditions and the negotiated price determined at the time of each sale. The issue price for such investors will not be less than
$970.00 per note and will not be more than $1,000 per note. The issue price for such investors reflects a forgone selling concession with
respect to such sales as described in the next paragraph.
CGMI, an affiliate of Citigroup Inc., is the underwriter of the sale
of the notes and is acting as principal. CGMI may resell the notes to other securities dealers at the issue price of $1,000 per note less
a selling concession not in excess of the underwriting fee. CGMI will receive an underwriting fee of up to $30.00 per note, and from such
underwriting fee will allow selected dealers a selling concession of up to $30.00 per note depending on market conditions that are relevant
to the value of the notes at the time an order to purchase the notes is submitted to CGMI. Dealers who purchase the notes for sales to
eligible institutional investors and/or to investors purchasing the notes in fee-based advisory accounts may forgo some or all selling
concessions, and CGMI may forgo some or all of the underwriting fee for sales to it makes to eligible institutional investors and/or to
investors purchasing the notes in fee-based advisory accounts.
|
Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest: |
The terms and conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Global
Selling Agency Agreement dated April 7, 2017 among Citigroup Inc. and the agents named therein, including CGMI, govern the sale and purchase
of the notes.
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.
In order to hedge its obligations under the notes, Citigroup Inc. expects
to enter into one or more swaps or other derivatives transactions with one or more of its affiliates. You should refer to the section
“General Information—Use of proceeds and hedging” in this pricing supplement and the section “Use of Proceeds
and Hedging” in the accompanying prospectus.
CGMI is an affiliate of Citigroup Inc. Accordingly, the offering of
the notes will conform with the requirements addressing conflicts of interest when distributing the securities of an affiliate set forth
in Rule 5121 of the Conduct Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. Client accounts over which Citigroup Inc., its
subsidiaries or affiliates of its subsidiaries have investment discretion are not permitted to purchase the notes, either directly or
indirectly, without the prior written consent of the client.
See “Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest” in the
accompanying prospectus supplement for more information.
|
Paying agent: |
Citibank, N.A. will serve as paying agent and registrar and will also hold the global security representing the notes as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”). |
Contact: |
Clients may contact their local brokerage representative. Third party distributors may contact Citi Structured Investment Sales at (212) 723-7005. |
