CITIGROUP
INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term
includes any successor Person under the Indenture), for value
received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered
assigns, the principal sum of $
on August 12, 2014 and to pay interest thereon from and
including August 12, 2009 or from the most recent Interest
Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
semi-annually, on February 12 and August 12 of each year,
commencing February 12, 2010 at the rate of 6.375% per annum,
until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.
The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for,
on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be
paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the
close of business on the Record Date for such interest, which shall
be the February 1 and August 1 (whether or not a Business Day)
immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date.
Any
such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will
forthwith cease to be payable to the holder on such Record Date and
may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is
registered at the close of business on a subsequent Record Date,
such subsequent Record Date to be not less than five days prior to
the date of payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof
shall be given to holders of Notes of this series not less than
15 days prior to such subsequent Record Date, or be paid at
any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes of this
series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by
such exchange, all as more fully provided in the
Indenture.
Interest
hereon will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised
of twelve 30-day months.
If
either an Interest Payment Date or the Maturity of the Notes falls
on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date or
Maturity will be the next succeeding Business Day. If a date for
payment of interest or principal on the Notes falls on a day that
is not a business day in the place of payment, such payment will be
made on the next succeeding business day in such place of payment
as if made on the date the payment was due. No interest will accrue
on any amounts payable for the period from and after the due date
for payment of such principal or interest.
For
these purposes, “Business Day” means any day which is a
day on which commercial banks settle payments and are open for
general business in The City of New York.
Payment
of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the
office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in The
City of New York.
Reference
is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on
the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.
Unless
the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Trustee or by an authenticating agent on behalf of the Trustee by
manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit
under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose.

This Note is one
of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company (the
“Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series
under the Indenture, dated as of March 15, 1987 (as amended
and supplemented to date, the “Indenture”), between the
Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, formerly known as The Bank
of New York, as Trustee (the “Trustee”, which term
includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which
Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is
hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations
of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the
Trustee and the holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which
the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This
Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially
limited in aggregate principal to $2,500,000,000.
If an event of
default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Notes of this
series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes of
this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture
contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire
indebtedness of this Note upon compliance by the Company with
certain conditions set forth in Sections 11.03 and 11.04
thereof, which provisions apply to this Note.
The Indenture
contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, without
the consent of the holders of the Securities, to establish, among
other things, the form and terms of any series of Securities
issuable thereunder by one or more supplemental indentures, and,
with the consent of the holders of not less than 66 2/3% in
aggregate principal amount of Securities at the time outstanding
which are affected thereby, to modify the Indenture or any
supplemental indenture or the rights of the holders of Securities
of such series to be affected, provided that no such modification
will (i) extend the fixed maturity of any Securities, reduce
the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, reduce
the principal amount thereof or the premium, if any, thereon,
reduce the amount of the principal of Original Issue Discount
Securities payable on any date, change the currency in which
Securities are payable, or impair the right to institute suit for
the enforcement of any such payment on or after the maturity
thereof, without the consent of the holder of each Security so
affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of
Securities of any series the consent of the holders of which is
required for any such modification without the consent of the
holders of all Securities of such series then outstanding, or
(iii) modify, without the written consent of the Trustee, the
rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee.
No reference
herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and
interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin
or currency, herein prescribed.
This Note is a
Global Security registered in the name of a nominee of the
Depository. This Note is exchangeable for Notes registered in the
name of a person other than the Depository or its nominee only in
the limited circumstances hereinafter described. Unless and until
it is exchanged in whole or in part for definitive Notes in
certificated form, this Note may not be
R-1
transferred
except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository
or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another
nominee of the Depository.
The Notes
represented by this Global Security are exchangeable for definitive
Notes in certificated form of like tenor as such Notes in
denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof only if (i) the Depository notifies the Company that
it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for the Notes
or (ii) the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
or (iii) the Company in its sole discretion decides to allow
the Notes to be exchanged for definitive Notes in registered form.
Any Notes that are exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence
are exchangeable for certificated Notes issuable in authorized
denominations and registered in such names as the Depository shall
direct. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of definitive Notes in
certificated form is registrable in the register maintained by the
Company in The City of New York for such purpose, upo
