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 December 9, 2011 and to pay interest thereon from and including December 9, 2008 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, monthly, on the ninth day of each month, commencing January 9, 2009, at the rate per annum for each Interest Period of one-month LIBOR, determined as provided herein, plus 0.80% 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 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 the actual number of days elapsed in an Interest Period and a 360-day year.  Dollar amounts resulting from such calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward.  An "Interest Period" shall be the period from and including an Interest Payment Date (or from December 9, 2008 in the case of the first Interest Payment Date) to and including the day immediately preceding the next Interest Payment Date.

 

If an Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the next succeeding Business Day.  If the Maturity of the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment due on Maturity will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no further interest will accrue in respect of such postponement.  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.

 

The Company and the Trustee acknowledge that the Company is a “participating entity”, as that term is defined in 12 CFR Section 370.2(g), in the debt guarantee program (the “Debt Guarantee Program”) established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) under its Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”).  As a result, this debt is guaranteed under the FDIC TLGP and is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.  The details of the FDIC guarantee are provided in the FDIC’s regulations, 12 CFR Part 370, and at the FDIC’s website, www.fdic.gov/tlgp .  The expiration date of the FDIC’s guarantee is the earlier of the maturity date of this debt or June 30, 2012.

 

The Trustee is hereby designated as the duly authorized representative of the holder for purposes of making claims and taking other permitted or required actions under the Debt Guarantee Program (the “Representative”).  Any holder may elect not to be represented by the Representative by providing written notice of such election to the Representative.

 

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, 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 $750,000,000.

 

This Note will bear interest for each Interest Period at a rate determined by Citibank, N.A., acting as Calculation Agent.  The interest rate on this Note for a particular Interest Period will be a per annum rate equal to one-month LIBOR as determined on the related Interest Determination Date, plus 0.80%.  The Interest Determination Date for an Interest Period will be the second London business day preceding such Interest Period.  The Interest Determination Date for the first Interest Period was December 5, 2008.  Promptly upon determination, the Calculation Agent will inform the Trustee and the Company of the interest rate for the next Interest Period.  Absent manifest error, the determination of the interest rate by the Calculation Agent shall be binding and conclusive on the holders of Notes, the Trustee and the Company.

 

A London business day is a day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.

 

On any Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be equal to the offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having an index maturity of six months for the next Interest Period, in amounts of at least $1,000,000, as such rate appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date.  If the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 is replaced by another service or ceases to exist, the Calculation Agent will use the replacing service or such other service that may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits.

 

If no offered rate appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 on an Interest Determination Date at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, then the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company) will select four major banks in the London interbank market and shall request each of their principal London offices to provide a quotation of the rate at which six-month deposits in U.S. dollars in amounts of at least $1,000,000 are offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market, on that date and at that time, that is representative of single transactions at that time.  If at least two quotations are provided, LIBOR will be the arithmetic average of the quotations provided.  Otherwise, the Calculation Agent will select three major banks in New York City and shall request each of them to provide a quotation of the rate offered by them at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks having an index maturity of six months for the applicable Interest Period in an amount of at least $1,000,000 that is representative of single transactions at that time.  If three quotations are provided, LIBOR will be the arithmetic average of the quotations provided.  Otherwise, the rate of LIBOR for the next Interest Period will be set equal to the rate of LIBOR for the current Interest Period.
