The Notes may be issued from time to time upon written order of the Company for the authentication and delivery of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.01 of this Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

Section 2.02. Form, Payment and Appointment. The Notes will be Global Securities and will initially be issued in fully registered, permanent global form without coupons (a “Global Note”), and the Depositary shall be DTC or such other depositary as any officer of the Company may from time to time designate. Unless and until such Global Note is exchanged for Notes in registered form, Global Notes may be transferred, in whole or in part, only to the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

Installments on the Notes will be payable, the transfer of such Notes will be registrable and such Notes will be exchangeable for Notes of a like aggregate principal amount bearing identical terms and provisions at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

The Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes shall initially be the Trustee.

The Notes shall be issuable in denominations of $[?] and integral multiples of $[?] in excess thereof.

Section 2.03. Installment Payments

(a) Installment Payment Dates. On each Installment Payment Date, the Company shall pay, in cash, equal installments of $[___] on each Note, subject to the Company’s right to defer extend the installment payment period at any time and from time to time under the circumstances, and subject to the conditions, set forth in clause (c) of this Section 2.03.

Each installment payment for any Installment Payment Period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If an installment is payable for any period shorter than a full Installment Payment Period, such installment shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. Furthermore, if any date on which an installment is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the installment on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay. However, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, then such installment payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date.

Installments shall be paid to the person in whose name the Note is registered, with limited exceptions, at the close of business on the Business Day (each, a “Regular Record Date”) immediately preceding the related Installment Payment Date. In the event the Notes do not continue to remain in book-entry only form, the Company shall have the right to select Regular Record Dates.

(i) The provisions set forth in Article XIII of the Base Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Notes. Instead, the Company may defer installment payments, at any time and from time to time, by extending the Installment Payment Period, so long as such period of time does not extend beyond December 15, 2015 (the “Extension Period”). The Company may end an Extension Period on any Installment Payment Date occurring on or before December 15, 2012 or, in the case of an Extension Period that extends beyond December 15, 2012, on any Business Day thereafter that is on or before December 15, 2015.

(ii) At the end of any Extension Period, the Company shall pay all installment payments for which the related Installment Payment Date occurred during such Extension Period, together with interest on the full amount of such installment payments compounded quarterly at the rate of ___% per annum, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Company shall give Holders of Units and Holders of Notes at least 10 Business Days’ notice of the end of an Extension Period.

(iii) Prior to the termination of any Extension Period, the Company may further defer installment payments by extending such Extension Period.

Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due, the Company may commence a new Extension Period, if consistent with the terms set forth in this clause (c) of Section 2.03. No installment payment (or

interest thereon) during an Extension Period, except at the end of such Extension Period, shall be due and payable.

(iv) The Company shall give the Holders of Units and Notes notice of its election of an Extension Period (or any extension thereof) at least 10 Business Days prior to the earlier of (x) the next succeeding Installment Payment Date; or (y) the date upon which the Company is required to give notice to the New York Stock Exchange or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to Holders of the record or payment date of such installment payment.

(d) Restrictions Applicable During an Extension Period and Certain Other Circumstances.

(i) The provisions set forth in Article XIII of the Base Indenture shall not apply with respect to the Amortizing Notes. Instead, if (x) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default under the Indenture or (y) the Company shall have given notice of its election to defer installment payments, or any extension of such period, shall be continuing, then:

(A) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions relating to, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment relating to, any of its Capital Stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto other than:

(1) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of Capital Stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

(2) purchases of shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a contractually binding requirement to buy stock existing prior to the commencement of the extension period, including under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan;

(3) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock for any other class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock;

(4) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s Capital Stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such Capital Stock or the security being converted or exchanged; or

(5) purchases of the Company’s Capital Stock in connection with the distribution thereof; and

(B) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not make any payment of interest, principal or premium on, or repay, purchase or redeem, any debt securities or guarantees issued by the Company that rank equally with or junior to the Notes other than pro rata payments of accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes and any other debt securities or guarantees issued by the Company that rank equally with the Notes, except and to the extent the terms of any such debt securities would prohibit the Company from making such pro rata payment.

These foregoing restrictions shall not apply to any stock dividends paid by the Company where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid.

ARTICLE 3. Redemption.

Section 3.01. Article XI shall not apply with respect to the Notes.

ARTICLE 4. Repurchase of Notes at the Option of the Holder

Holders may not require the Company to repurchase a portion of an Amortizing Note, nor will any Holder have the right to require the Company to repurchase any or all of such Holder’s Notes in connection with any Early Settlement of such Holder’s Purchase Contracts at the Early Settlement Rate in accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement.

Section 4.02. Conditions to Exercise.

Units, if the Early Mandatory Settlement Date falls on the same day as the Repurchase Date and if the Notes have not been separated from the Units), together with a duly completed written Repurchase Notice, in each case in accordance with appropriate DTC procedures, unless the Note is not a Global Note, in which case such Holder shall deliver the Notes to be repurchased or the Units that include the Notes to be repurchased, duly endorsed for transfer, together with a Repurchase Notice, to the Paying Agent.

(b) The Repurchase Notice shall state the following:

(i) if certificated Notes or Units have been issued, the certificate numbers of the Notes or Units, or if the Notes are Global Notes, the Repurchase Notice shall comply with appropriate DTC procedures;

(c) The Company shall be required to repurchase the Notes on the Repurchase Date. A Holder electing to exercise the Repurchase Right shall receive payment of the Repurchase Price on the later of (i) the Repurchase Date and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of the Notes.

(d) If the Trustee holds money sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price of the Notes on the Repurchase Date, then (i) the Notes shall cease to be outstanding and interest shall cease to accrue (whether or not book-entry transfer of the notes is made or whether or not the Notes are delivered to the Trustee); and (ii) all other rights of the Holder shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Repurchase Price).

(e) The Company shall, in connection with any repurchase offer pursuant to an Early Mandatory Settlement Notice, if required, (i) comply with the provisions of the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable; and (ii) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Notes may be repurchased at the option of Holders if the principal amount thereof has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Repurchase Date (except in the case of a Default by the Company of the payment of the Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes).

CITIGROUP INC.
AMORTIZING NOTE DUE 2012

CITIGROUP INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of up to [°°°] ($°°°)[, or such lesser amount as set forth in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Note attached hereto,] in quarterly installments (constituted by a payment of interest at the rate per year of [•]% and a partial repayment of principal) payable on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year (each such date, an “Installment Payment Date” and each full quarterly period between Installment Payment Dates, an “Installment Payment Period”), commencing March 15, 2010, all as set forth on the reverse hereof, with the final installment due and payable on December 15, 2012 (the “Maturity Date”). The installment amount payable on any Installment Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If an installment is payable for any period shorter than a full Installment Payment Period, such installment shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. In the event that any date on which an installment is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the installment on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay. However, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, then such installment payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. Installments shall be paid to the person in whose name the Note is registered, with limited exceptions, at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Installment Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”). In the event the Notes do not continue to remain in book-entry only form, the Company shall have the right to select Regular Record Dates. Any such installment payment not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holders at the close of business on such Regular Record Date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted installment, notice whereof shall be given to the registered Holders of this series of Notes not less than 10 days prior to such special record date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Installments shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; provided, however, that payment of installments may be made at the option of the

Company by check mailed to the registered Holder at such address as shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Holder entitled to payment.

This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter referred to or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the Certificate of Authentication shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee.

The provisions of this Note are continued on the reverse side hereof and such continued provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be executed.

(FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE)

CITIGROUP INC.

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company designated as its Amortizing Notes due 2012 (herein sometimes referred to as the “Notes”), issued under a junior debt indenture, dated as of July 23, 2004 (the “Base Indenture”), supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 3, 2007 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) and a Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 2, 2009 (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture,” and the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture and a Seventh Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders. The terms of other series of Securities issued under the Indenture may vary with respect to interest rates, issue dates, maturity, redemption, repayment, currency of payment and otherwise as provided in the Indenture. The Indenture further provides that securities of a single series may be issued at various times, with different maturity dates and may bear interest at different rates. This series of Securities is limited in aggregate principal amount as specified in said Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

Each installment shall constitute a payment of interest (at a rate of [°°°]% per annum) and a partial repayment of principal on the Note, allocated as set forth in the schedule below:

The Securities of this series shall not be subject to redemption at the option of the Company at any time prior to their Maturity Date. However, a Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase some or all of their Notes for cash at the Repurchase Price per Note to be repurchased on the Repurchase Date, upon the occurrence of certain events and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture.

This Security is not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Base Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and covenant defeasance at any time of the indebtedness on this Security upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, then either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes of this series then outstanding may declare the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series, and all interest accrued thereon, to be due and payable immediately, in the manner, subject to the conditions and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Base Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding of each series issued under the Indenture to be affected thereby, to execute supplemental indentures for certain purposes as described therein.

Obligations Unconditional. 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 installments on this Note at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.

Transfer and Exchange. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in fully registered, permanent global form without coupons in initial minimum denominations of $[?] or any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the Holder in whose name this Note

is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

This Note and the Indenture, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Indenture or this Note, shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of any installment on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or of any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment of penalty or otherwise; and all such personal liability is expressly released and waived as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the issuance of this Note.

The Company agrees, and by acceptance of a beneficial ownership interest in the Notes, each beneficial Holder will be deemed to have agreed [(1) for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes to treat the acquisition of a Note as [•], (2)] to treat the Notes as indebtedness that is subject to Treas. Reg. Sec. 1.1275-4 (the “Contingent Payment Regulations”) for United States federal income tax purposes and [(3)] to be bound by the Company’s determination of the “comparable yield” and “projected payment schedule,” within the meaning of the Contingent Payment Regulations, with respect to the Notes for United States federal income tax purposes.
