A prospectus supplement will describe the specific types, amounts, prices and detailed terms of any of these offered securities.

DEBT SECURITIES

Debt securities are unsecured general obligations of Citigroup in the form of senior or subordinated debt. Senior debt includes Citigroup's notes, debt and guarantees and any other debt for money borrowed that is not subordinated. Subordinated debt, so designated at the time it is issued, would not be entitled to interest and principal payments if interest and principal payments on the senior debt were not made.

The senior and subordinated debt will be issued under separate indentures between Citigroup and a trustee. Below are summaries of the general features of the debt securities from these indentures. For a more detailed description of these features, see "Description of Debt Securities" below. You are also encouraged to read the indentures, which are included or incorporated by reference in Citigroup's registration statement No. 333- , Citigroup's most recent annual report on Form 10-K, Citigroup's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed after the Form 10-K and Citigroup's current reports on Form 8-K

filed after the Form 10-K. You can receive copies of these documents by following the directions on page 6.

General Indenture Provisions that Apply to Senior and Subordinated Debt

- Neither indenture limits the amount of debt that Citigroup may issue or provides holders any protection should there be a highly leveraged transaction involving Citigroup, although the senior debt indenture does limit Citigroup's ability to pledge the stock of any subsidiary that meets the financial thresholds in the indenture. These thresholds are described below under "Description of Debt Securities."

- Each indenture allows for different types of debt securities, including indexed securities, to be issued in series.

- The indentures allow Citigroup to merge or to consolidate with another company, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to another company. If any of these events occur, the other company generally would be required to assume Citigroup's responsibilities for the debt. Unless the transaction resulted in a default, Citigroup would be released from all liabilities and obligations under the debt securities when the other company assumed its responsibilities.

- The indentures provide that holders of 66 2/3% of the principal amount of the senior debt securities and holders of a majority of the total principal amount of the subordinated debt securities outstanding in any series may vote to change Citigroup's obligations or your rights concerning those securities. However, changes to the financial terms of that security, including changes in the payment of principal or interest on that security or the currency of payment, cannot be made unless every holder affected consents to the change.

- Citigroup may satisfy its obligations under the debt securities or be released from its obligation to comply with the limitations discussed above at any time by depositing sufficient amounts of cash or U.S. government securities with the trustee to pay Citigroup's obligations under the particular securities when due.

- The indentures govern the actions of the trustee with regard to the debt securities, including when the trustee is required to give notices to holders of the securities and when lost or stolen debt securities may be replaced.

Events of Default and Defaults

The events of default specified in the senior debt indenture and defaults under the subordinated debt indenture include:

- failure to pay principal when due;

- failure to pay required interest for 30 days;

- failure to make a required scheduled installment payment for 30 days;

- failure to perform other covenants for 90 days after notice;

- certain events of insolvency or bankruptcy, whether voluntary or not; and

- any additional events as may be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement relating to any series of subordinated debt, the only events of default specified in the subordinated debt indenture are certain events of insolvency or bankruptcy, whether voluntary or not. There is no event of default, and accordingly there is no right of acceleration, in the case of a default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, subordinated debt securities, the performance of any other covenant of Citigroup in the subordinated indenture or any other default which is not also an event of default.

2

Remedies

Senior Indenture: If there were an event of default, the trustee or holders of 25% of the principal amount of senior debt securities outstanding in a series could demand that the principal be paid immediately. However, holders of a majority in principal amount of the securities in that series could rescind that acceleration of the debt securities.

Subordinated Indenture: If there were an event of default involving certain events of insolvency or bankruptcy, the trustee or holders of 25% of the principal amount of subordinated debt securities outstanding in a series could demand that the principal be paid immediately. However, holders of a majority in principal amount of the securities in that series may rescind that acceleration of the debt securities. The occurrence of a default for any reason other than these events of insolvency or bankruptcy will not give the trustee or such holders the right to demand that the principal of the subordinated debt securities be paid immediately.

COMMON STOCK WARRANTS

Citigroup may issue common stock warrants independently or together with any securities. Citigroup will issue any common stock warrants under a separate common stock warrant agreement between Citigroup and a bank or trust company. You are encouraged to read the standard form of the common stock warrant agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to one of Citigroup's future current reports and incorporated by reference in its registration statement No. 333- . You can receive copies of these documents by following the directions on page 6.

Common stock warrants are securities pursuant to which Citigroup may sell or purchase common stock. The particular terms of each issue of common stock warrants, the common stock warrant agreement relating to the common stock warrants and the common stock warrant certificates representing common stock warrants will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

INDEX WARRANTS

Citigroup may issue index warrants independently or together with debt securities. Citigroup will issue any series of index warrants under a separate index warrant agreement between Citigroup and a bank or trust company. You are encouraged to read the standard form of the index warrant agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to one of Citigroup's future current reports and incorporated by reference in its registration statement No. 333- . You can receive copies of these documents by following the directions on page 6.

Index warrants are securities that, when properly exercised by the purchaser, entitle the purchaser to receive from Citigroup an amount in cash or a number of securities that will be indexed to prices, yields, or other specified measures or changes in an index or differences between two or more indices.

The prospectus supplement for a series of index warrants will describe the formula for determining the amount in cash or number of securities, if any, that Citigroup will pay you when you exercise an index warrant and will contain information about the relevant underlying assets and other specific terms of the index warrant.

Citigroup will generally issue index warrants in book-entry form, which means that they will not be evidenced by physical certificates. Also, Citigroup will generally list index warrants for trading on a national securities exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market's National Market or the Chicago Board Options Exchange.

The index warrant agreement for any series of index warrants will provide that holders of a majority of the total principal amount of the index warrants outstanding in any series may vote to change their rights concerning those index warrants. However, changes to fundamental terms such as the amount or manner of payment on an index warrant or changes to the exercise times cannot be made unless every holder affected consents to the change.

3

Any prospective purchasers of index warrants should be aware of special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to instruments such as the index warrants. The prospectus supplement relating to each series of index warrants will describe the important tax considerations.

PREFERRED STOCK

Citigroup may issue preferred stock with various terms to be established by its board of directors or a committee designated by the board. Each series of preferred stock will be more fully described in the particular prospectus supplement that will accompany this prospectus, including redemption provisions, rights in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Citigroup, voting rights and conversion rights.

Generally, each series of preferred stock will rank on an equal basis with each other series of preferred stock and will rank prior to Citigroup's common stock. The prospectus supplement will also describe how and when dividends will be paid on the series of preferred stock.

DEPOSITARY SHARES

Citigroup may issue depositary shares representing fractional shares of preferred stock. Each particular series of depositary shares will be more fully described in the prospectus supplement that will accompany this prospectus. These depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts and issued under a deposit agreement between Citigroup and a bank or trust company. You are encouraged to read the standard form of the deposit agreement, which is incorporated by reference in Citigroup's registration statement No. 333- . You can receive copies of this document by following the directions on page 6.

STOCK PURCHASE CONTRACTS AND STOCK PURCHASE UNITS

Citigroup may issue stock purchase contracts, including contracts obligating holders to purchase from or sell to Citigroup, and Citigroup to sell to or purchase from the holders, a specified number of shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock or depositary shares at a future date or dates. The stock purchase contracts may be issued separately or as part of stock purchase units, consisting of a stock purchase contract and any combination of debt securities, capital securities, junior subordinated debt securities or debt obligations of third parties, including U.S. Treasury securities. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of the stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units, including, if applicable, collateral or depositary arrangements.

COMMON STOCK

Citigroup may issue common stock, par value $.01 per share. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends when declared by Citigroup's board of directors. Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote per share. The holders of common stock have no preemptive rights or cumulative voting rights.

4

USE OF PROCEEDS

Citigroup will use the net proceeds it receives from any offering of these securities for general corporate purposes, which may include funding its operating units and subsidiaries, financing possible acquisitions or business expansion and refinancing or extending the maturity of existing debt obligations. Citigroup may use a portion of the proceeds from the sale of index warrants and indexed notes to hedge its exposure to payments that it may have to make on such index warrants and indexed notes as described below under "Use of Proceeds and Hedging."

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Citigroup may sell the offered securities in any of the following ways:

- to or through underwriters or dealers;

- by itself directly;

- through agents; or

- through a combination of any of these methods of sale.

The prospectus supplement will explain the ways Citigroup sells specific securities, including the names of any underwriters and details of the pricing of the securities, as well as the commissions, concessions or discounts Citigroup is granting the underwriters, dealers or agents.

If Citigroup uses underwriters in any sale, the underwriters will buy the securities for their own account and may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. In connection with an offering, underwriters and selling group members and their affiliates may engage in transactions to stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities, in accordance with applicable law.

Citigroup expects that the underwriters for any offering will include one or more of its broker-dealer subsidiaries, including Citigroup Global Markets Inc. These broker-dealer subsidiaries also expect to offer and sell previously issued offered securities as part of their business, and may act as a principal or agent in such transactions. Citigroup or any of its subsidiaries may use this prospectus and the related prospectus supplements and pricing supplements in connection with these activities.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

As required by the Securities Act of 1933, Citigroup filed a registration statement (No. 333- ) relating to the securities offered by this prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This prospectus is a part of that registration statement, which includes additional information.

Citigroup files annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. You may read and copy any document Citigroup files at the SEC's public reference room in Washington, D.C. You can also request copies of the documents, upon payment of a duplicating fee, by writing the Public Reference Section of the SEC. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the public reference room. These SEC filings are also available to the public from the SEC's web site at http://www.sec.gov.

The SEC allows Citigroup to "incorporate by reference" the information it files with the SEC, which means that it can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be part of this prospectus. Information that Citigroup files later with the SEC will automatically update information in this prospectus. In all cases, you should rely on the later information over different information included in this prospectus or the prospectus supplement.

CITIGROUP INC.

Citigroup is a diversified global financial services holding company whose businesses provide a broad range of financial services to consumer and corporate customers with some 200 million customer accounts doing business in more than 100 countries. Citigroup's activities are conducted through the Global Consumer, Global Corporate and Investment Bank, Private Client Services, Global Investment Management, and Proprietary Investment Activities business segments.

Citigroup is a holding company and services its obligations primarily with dividends and advances that it receives from subsidiaries. Citigroup's subsidiaries that operate in the banking, insurance and securities business can only pay dividends if they are in compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements imposed on them by federal and state bank regulatory authorities, state insurance departments and securities regulators. 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. Each of Citigroup's major operating subsidiaries finances its operations on a stand-alone basis consistent with its capitalization and ratings.

Under longstanding policy of The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for its subsidiary banks and to commit resources to support such banks. As a result of that policy, Citigroup may be required to commit resources to its subsidiary banks.

The principal office of Citigroup is located at 399 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10043, and its telephone number is (212) 559-1000.

USE OF PROCEEDS AND HEDGING

General. Citigroup will use the proceeds it receives from the sale of the offered securities for general corporate purposes, which may include:

- funding the business of its operating units;

- funding investments in, or extensions of credit or capital contributions to, its subsidiaries;

- financing possible acquisitions or business expansion; and

- lengthening the average maturity of liabilities, which means that it could reduce its short-term liabilities or refund maturing indebtedness.

Citigroup expects to incur additional indebtedness in the future to fund its businesses. Citigroup or an affiliate may enter into a swap agreement in connection with the sale of the offered securities and may earn additional income from that transaction.

Use of Proceeds Relating to Index Warrants and Indexed Notes. Citigroup or one or more of its subsidiaries may use all or some of the proceeds received from the sale of index warrants or indexed notes to purchase or maintain positions in the assets that are used to determine the relevant index or indices. Citigroup or one or more of its subsidiaries may also purchase or maintain positions in options, futures contracts, forward contracts or swaps, or options on such securities, or other derivative or similar instruments relating to the relevant index or underlying assets. Citigroup may also use the proceeds to pay the costs and expenses of hedging any currency, interest rate or other index-related risk relating to such index warrants and indexed notes.

Citigroup expects that it or one or more of its subsidiaries will increase or decrease their initial hedging position over time using techniques that help evaluate the size of any hedge based upon a variety of factors affecting the value of the underlying instrument. These factors may include the history of price changes in that underlying instrument and the time remaining to maturity. Citigroup may take long or short positions in the index, the underlying assets, options, futures contracts, forward contracts, swaps, or other derivative or similar instruments related to the index and the underlying assets. These other hedging activities may occur from time to time before the index warrants and indexed notes mature and will depend on market conditions and the value of the index and the underlying assets.

In addition, Citigroup or one or more of its subsidiaries may purchase or otherwise acquire a long or short position in index warrants and indexed notes from time to time and may, in their sole discretion, hold, resell, exercise, cancel or retire such offered securities. Citigroup or one or more of its subsidiaries may also take hedging positions in other types of appropriate financial instruments that may become available in the future.

If Citigroup or one or more of its subsidiaries has a long hedge position in, options contracts in, or other derivative or similar instruments related to, the underlying assets or index, Citigroup or one or more of its subsidiaries may liquidate all or a portion of its holdings at or about the time of the maturity of the index warrants and indexed notes. The aggregate amount and type of such positions are likely to vary over time depending on future market conditions and other factors. Citigroup is only able to determine profits or losses from any such position when the position is closed out and any offsetting position or positions are taken into account.

Citigroup has no reason to believe that its hedging activity will have a material impact on the price of such options, swaps, futures contracts, options on the foregoing, or other derivative or similar instruments, or on the value of the index or the underlying assets. However, Citigroup cannot guarantee you that its hedging activities will not affect such prices or values. Citigroup will use the remainder of the proceeds from the sale of index warrants and indexed notes for the general corporate purposes described above.

EUROPEAN MONETARY UNION

The foreign currencies in which debt securities may be denominated or payments in respect of index warrants may be due or by which amounts due on the offered securities may be calculated could be issued by countries that are member states of the European Union that have adopted or adopt the single euro currency in accordance with the Treaty establishing the European Community (as that Treaty is amended from time to time) (the "participating member states").

The current twelve participating member states are: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Other member states of the European Union may also become participating member states.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

The debt securities offered by this prospectus will be unsecured obligations of Citigroup and will be either senior or subordinated debt. Senior debt will be issued under a senior debt indenture. Subordinated debt will be issued under a subordinated debt indenture. The senior debt indenture and the subordinated debt indenture are sometimes referred to in this prospectus individually as an "indenture" and collectively as the "indentures." Forms of the indentures have been filed with the SEC and are incorporated by reference or included in the registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333- ) under the Securities Act of 1933 of which this prospectus forms a part.

The following briefly summarizes the material provisions of the indentures and the debt securities, other than pricing and related terms disclosed in the accompanying prospectus supplement. You should read the more detailed provisions of the applicable indenture, including the defined terms, for provisions that may be important to you. You should also read the particular terms of a series of debt securities, which will be described in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. Copies of the indentures may be obtained from Citigroup or the applicable trustee. So that you may easily locate the more detailed provisions, the numbers in parentheses below refer to sections in the applicable indenture or, if no indenture is specified, to sections in each of the indentures. Wherever particular sections or defined terms of the applicable indenture are referred to, such sections or defined terms are incorporated into this prospectus by reference, and the statements in this prospectus are qualified by that reference.

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the trustee under the senior debt indenture will be The Bank of New York, and the trustee under the subordinated debt indenture will be J.P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A. Citigroup has appointed Citibank, N.A. to act as paying agent under each indenture.

GENERAL

The indentures provide that unsecured senior or subordinated debt securities of Citigroup may be issued in one or more series, with different terms, in each case as authorized from time to time by Citigroup. Citigroup also has the right to "reopen" a previous issue of a series of debt securities by issuing additional debt securities of such series.

United States federal income tax consequences and other special considerations applicable to any debt securities issued by Citigroup at a discount or a premium will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

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 debt securities, to participate in the assets of the subsidiary upon the subsidiary's liquidation.

The applicable prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities will describe the following terms, where applicable:

- the title of the debt securities;

- whether the debt securities will be senior or subordinated debt;

- the indenture under which the debt securities are being issued;

- the total principal amount of the debt securities;

- the percentage of the principal amount at which the debt securities will be sold and, if applicable, the method of determining the price;

- the maturity date or dates;

- the interest rate or the method of computing the interest rate;

- the date or dates from which any interest will accrue, or how such date or dates will be determined, and the interest payment date or dates and any related record dates;

11

- if other than in United States dollars, the currency or currency unit in which payment will be made;

- if the amount of any payment may be determined with reference to an index or formula based on a currency or currency unit other than that in which the debt securities are payable, the manner in which the amounts will be determined;

- if the amount of any payment may be determined with reference to an index or formula based on securities, commodities, intangibles, articles or goods, or any other financial, economic or other measure or instrument, including the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or circumstance, the manner in which the amount will be determined;

- if any payments may be made at the election of Citigroup or a holder of debt securities in a currency or currency unit other than that in which the debt securities are stated to be payable, the periods within which, and the terms upon which, such election may be made;

- the location where payments on the debt securities will be made;

- the terms and conditions on which the debt securities may be redeemed at the option of Citigroup;

- any obligation of Citigroup to redeem, purchase or repay the debt securities at the option of a holder upon the happening of any event and the terms and conditions of redemption, purchase or repayment;

- if other than the principal amount, the portion of the principal amount of the debt securities payable if the maturity is accelerated;

- any provisions for the discharge of Citigroup's obligations relating to the debt securities by deposit of funds or United States government securities;

- whether the debt securities are to trade in book-entry form and the terms and any conditions for exchanging the global security in whole or in part for paper certificates;

- the date of any global security if other than the original issuance of the first debt security to be issued;

- any material provisions of the applicable indenture described in this prospectus that do not apply to the debt securities;

- whether the securities are to be issued in registered form, bearer form, or both; and

- any other specific terms of the debt securities (Section 2.02).

The terms on which a series of debt securities may be convertible into or exchangeable for common stock or other securities of Citigroup will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to such series. Such terms will include provisions as to whether conversion or exchange is mandatory, at the option of the holder or at the option of Citigroup. The terms may include provisions pursuant to which the number of shares of common stock or other securities of Citigroup to be received by the holders of such series of debt securities may be adjusted.

The senior debt securities will be issued only in registered form. The subordinated debt securities may be issued in registered form, bearer form, or both. If bearer securities are issued, the United States federal income tax consequences and other special considerations, procedures and limitations applicable to such bearer securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. As currently anticipated, debt securities of a series will trade in book-entry form, and global notes will be issued in physical
(paper) form, as described below under "Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement." Unless otherwise provided in the accompanying prospectus supplement, debt securities denominated in United States dollars will be issued only in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 (Section 2.01). The prospectus supplement relating to offered securities denominated in a foreign currency will specify the denomination of the offered securities.

12

The debt securities may be presented for exchange, and debt securities other than a global security may be presented for registration of transfer, at the principal trust office of the relevant trustee in New York City. Holders will not have to pay any service charge for any registration of transfer or exchange of debt securities, but Citigroup may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with such registration of transfer. (Section 2.05) Debt securities in bearer form will be transferable by delivery. Provisions with respect to the exchange of debt securities in bearer form will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

PAYMENT AND PAYING AGENTS

Distributions on the debt securities other than those represented by global notes or bearer securities will be made in U.S. dollars against surrender of the debt securities at the principal office of the relevant trustee in New York City. Payment will be made to the registered holder at the close of business on the record date for such payment. Interest payments in U.S. dollars will be made at the principal trust office of the paying agent in New York City, or by a check mailed to the holder at his registered address (Sections 2.01 and 5.02). Payments in any other manner will be specified in the prospectus supplement.

SENIOR DEBT

The senior debt securities will be issued under the senior debt indenture and will rank on an equal basis with all other unsecured debt of Citigroup except subordinated debt.

SUBORDINATED DEBT

The subordinated debt securities will be issued under the subordinated debt indenture and will rank subordinated and junior in right of payment, to the extent set forth in the subordinated debt indenture, to all "Senior Indebtedness" (as defined below) of Citigroup.

If Citigroup defaults in the payment of any principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Senior Indebtedness when it becomes due and payable after any applicable grace period, then, unless and until the default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, Citigroup cannot make a payment on account of or redeem or otherwise acquire the subordinated debt securities. Nevertheless, holders of subordinated debt securities may still receive and retain:

- securities of Citigroup or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment that are subordinate, at least to the same extent that the subordinated debt securities are subordinate to Senior Indebtedness; and

- payments made from a defeasance trust as described below.

If there is any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or other similar proceeding relating to Citigroup, its creditors or its property, then all Senior Indebtedness must be paid in full before any payment may be made to any holders of subordinated debt securities. Holders of subordinated debt securities must return and deliver any payments received by them, other than in a plan of reorganization or through a defeasance trust as described below, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness until all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full. (Subordinated Debt Indenture, Section 14.01).

"Senior Indebtedness" means:

(1) the principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of (A) indebtedness of Citigroup for money borrowed and (B) indebtedness evidenced by securities, notes, debentures, bonds or other similar instruments issued by Citigroup, including the senior debt securities;

(2) all capital lease obligations of Citigroup and any synthetic lease or tax retention operating lease;

(3) all obligations of Citigroup issued or assumed as the deferred purchase price of property, all conditional sale obligations of Citigroup and all obligations of Citigroup under any conditional sale or title retention agreement, but excluding trade accounts payable in the ordinary course of business;

13

(4) all obligations, contingent or otherwise, of Citigroup in respect of any letters of credit, bankers acceptance, security purchase facilities and similar credit transactions;

(5) all obligations of Citigroup in respect of interest rate swap, cap or other agreements, interest rate future or options contracts, currency swap agreements, currency future or option contracts and other similar agreements;

(6) all obligations of the type referred to in clauses (1) through (5) of other persons for the payment of which Citigroup is responsible or liable as obligor, guarantor or otherwise; and

(7) all obligations of the type referred to in clauses (1) through (6) of other persons secured by any lien on any property or asset of Citigroup whether or not such obligation is assumed by Citigroup;

but Senior Indebtedness does not include:

(a) subordinated debt securities;

(b) any indebtedness that by its terms is subordinated to, or ranks on an equal basis with, subordinated debt securities including, without limitation, subordinated debt securities issued by Citigroup under an indenture with Bank One Trust Company, N.A. dated July 17, 1998, as supplemented; and

(c) any indebtedness between or among Citigroup and its affiliates, including (1) any Junior Subordinated Debt, (2) any Capital Securities Guarantees and (3) all other debt securities and guarantees in respect of those debt securities, issued to any other trust, or a trustee of such trust, partnership or other entity affiliated with Citigroup which is a financing vehicle of Citigroup in connection with the issuance by such financing vehicle of capital securities or other securities guaranteed by Citigroup pursuant to an instrument that ranks on an equal basis with, or junior to, the Capital Securities Guarantees.

"Junior Subordinated Debt" means Citigroup's:

- 6.10% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due September 30, 2033;

- 6.00% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due February 14, 2033;

- 6.950% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due September 15, 2031;

- 7 1/8% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due July 31, 2031;

- 6 7/8% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due March 15, 2029;

- 7 3/4% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due December 1, 2036;

- other notes or other obligations which may be issued under the indenture, dated as of October 7, 1996, between Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as trustee; and

- indebtedness that is by its terms subordinated to, or ranks on an equal basis with, the Junior Subordinated Debt.

"Capital Securities Guarantees" means the guarantees issued by Citigroup in connection with:

- the 6.10% Capital Securities of Citigroup Capital X;

- the 6.00% Capital Securities of Citigroup Capital IX;

- the 6.950% Capital Securities of Citigroup Capital VIII;

- the 7 1/8% Capital Securities of Citigroup Capital VII;

- the 6 7/8% Capital Securities of Citigroup Capital VI;

- the 7 3/4% Trust Preferred Securities of Citigroup Capital II; and

- any existing or future preferred or preference stock, including capital securities, that is by its terms subordinated to, or ranks on an equal basis with, the Capital Securities.

14

COVENANTS

Limitations on Liens. The senior debt indenture provides that Citigroup will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any indebtedness for money borrowed if such indebtedness is secured by a pledge of, lien on, or security interest in any shares of Voting Stock of any Significant Subsidiary, without providing that each series of senior debt securities and, at Citigroup's option, any other senior indebtedness ranking equally with such series of senior debt securities, is secured equally and ratably with such indebtedness. This limitation shall not apply to indebtedness secured by a pledge of, lien on or security interest in any shares of Voting Stock of any corporation at the time it becomes a Significant Subsidiary, including any renewals or extensions of such secured indebtedness (Senior Debt Indenture, Section 5.04). The subordinated debt indenture does not contain a similar provision.

"Significant Subsidiary" means a Subsidiary, including its Subsidiaries, that meets any of the following conditions:

- Citigroup's and its other Subsidiaries' investments in and advances to the Subsidiary exceed 10 percent of the total assets of Citigroup and its Subsidiaries consolidated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year;

- Citigroup's and its other Subsidiaries' proportionate share of the total assets of the Subsidiary after intercompany eliminations exceeds 10 percent of the total assets of Citigroup and its Subsidiaries consolidated as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year; or

- Citigroup's and its other Subsidiaries' equity in the income from continuing operations before income taxes, extraordinary items and cumulative effect of a change in accounting principles of the Subsidiary exceeds 10 percent of such income of Citigroup and its Subsidiaries consolidated for the most recently completed fiscal year.

"Subsidiary" means any corporation of which securities entitled to elect at least a majority of the corporation's directors shall at the time be owned, directly or indirectly, by Citigroup, and/or one or more Subsidiaries, except securities entitled to vote for directors only upon the happening of a contingency.

"Voting Stock" means capital stock, the holders of which have general voting power under ordinary circumstances to elect at least a majority of the board of directors of a corporation, except capital stock that carries only the right to vote conditioned on the happening of an event regardless of whether such event shall have happened (Senior Debt Indenture, Sections 1.02 and 5.04).

Limitations on Mergers and Sales of Assets. The indentures provide that Citigroup will not merge or consolidate with another corporation or sell other than for cash or lease all or substantially all its assets to another corporation, or purchase all or substantially all the assets of another corporation unless:

- either (1) Citigroup is the continuing corporation, or (2) the successor corporation, if other than Citigroup, expressly assumes by supplemental indenture the obligations evidenced by the securities issued pursuant to the indenture and

- in the case of the senior debt indenture or if provided in the applicable prospectus supplement for a series of subordinated debt, immediately after the transaction, there would not be any default in the performance of any covenant or condition of the indenture (Senior Debt Indenture, Sections 5.05 and 14.01; Subordinated Debt Indenture, Section 15.01).

Other than the restrictions described above, the indentures do not contain any covenants or provisions that would protect holders of the debt securities in the event of a highly leveraged transaction.

MODIFICATION OF THE INDENTURES

Under the indentures, Citigroup and the relevant trustee can enter into supplemental indentures to establish the form and terms of any series of debt securities without obtaining the consent of any holder of debt securities.

15

Citigroup and the trustee may, with the consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the senior debt securities of a series or at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the subordinated debt securities of a series, modify the applicable indenture or the rights of the holders of the securities of such series to be affected.

No such modification may, without the consent of the holder of each security so affected:

- change the fixed maturity of any such securities;

- reduce the rate of interest on such securities;

- reduce the principal amount of such securities or the premium, if any, on such securities;

- reduce the amount of the principal of any securities issued originally at a discount;

- change the currency in which any such securities are payable; or

- impair the right to sue for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the maturity of such securities.

In addition, no such modification may:

- reduce the percentage of securities referred to above whose holders need to consent to the modification without the consent of such holders; or

- change, without the written consent of the trustee, the rights, duties or immunities of the trustee (Sections 13.01 and 13.02).

In addition, the subordinated debt indenture may not be amended without the consent of each holder of subordinated debt securities affected thereby to modify the subordination of the subordinated debt securities issued under that indenture in a manner adverse to the holders of the subordinated debt securities (Subordinated Debt Indenture, Section 13.02).

EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND DEFAULTS

Events of default under the senior debt indenture and defaults under the subordinated debt indenture are:

- failure to pay required interest on any debt security of such series for 30 days;

- failure to pay principal, other than a scheduled installment payment to a sinking fund or premium, if any, on any debt security of such series when due;

- failure to make any required scheduled installment payment to a sinking fund for 30 days on debt securities of such series;

- failure to perform for 90 days after notice any other covenant in the relevant indenture other than a covenant included in the relevant indenture solely for the benefit of a series of debt securities other than such series; and

- certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, whether voluntary or not (Senior Debt Indenture, Section 6.01; Subordinated Debt Indenture,
Section 6.07).

Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement relating to any series of subordinated debt, the only events of default specified in the subordinated debt indenture are events of insolvency or bankruptcy, whether voluntary or not. There is no event of default, and accordingly there is no right of acceleration, in the case of a default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, subordinated debt securities, the performance of any other covenant of Citigroup in the subordinated indenture or any other default that is not also an event of default (Subordinated Debt Indenture, Sections 6.01 and 6.02).

If an event of default regarding debt securities of any series issued under the indentures should occur and be continuing, either the trustee or the holders of 25% in the principal amount of outstanding debt securities of such series may declare each debt security of that series due and payable (Section 6.02). Citigroup is required to file annually with the trustee a statement of an officer as to the fulfillment by Citigroup of its obligations under the indenture during the preceding year (Senior Debt Indenture, Section 5.06; Subordinated Debt Indenture, Section 5.04).

16

No event of default regarding one series of senior debt securities issued under the senior debt indenture is necessarily an event of default regarding any other series of senior debt securities (Senior Debt Indenture, Section 6.02).

Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will be entitled to control certain actions of the trustee under the indentures and to waive past defaults regarding such series (Sections 6.02 and 6.06). The trustee generally will not be under any obligation to act at the request, order or direction of any of the holders of debt securities, unless one or more of such holders shall have offered to the trustee reasonable security or indemnity (Section 10.01).

If an event of default occurs regarding a series of debt securities, the trustee may use any sums that it collects under the relevant indenture for its own reasonable compensation and expenses incurred prior to paying the holders of debt securities of such series (Section 6.05).

Before any holder of any series of debt securities may institute action for any remedy, except payment on such holder's debt security when due, the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the debt securities of that series outstanding must request the trustee to take action. Holders must also offer satisfactory security and indemnity against liabilities incurred by the trustee for taking such action (Section 6.07).

DEFEASANCE

Senior Debt Indenture. If so specified when the senior debt securities of a particular series are created, after Citigroup has deposited with the trustee cash or U.S. government securities in trust for the benefit of the holders sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the senior debt securities of such series when due, then Citigroup, at its option:

- will be deemed to have paid and satisfied its obligations on all outstanding senior debt securities of such series, which is known as "defeasance and discharge;" or

- will cease to be under any obligation, other than to pay when due the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such senior debt securities, relating to the senior debt securities of such series, which is known as "covenant defeasance."

In the case of covenant defeasance, Citigroup must also deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the senior debt securities of such series will have no United States federal income tax consequences as a result of such deposit.

When there is a defeasance and discharge, (1) the senior debt indenture will no longer govern the senior debt securities of such series, (2) Citigroup will no longer be liable for payment and (3) the holders of such senior debt securities will be entitled only to the deposited funds. When there is a covenant defeasance, however, Citigroup will continue to be obligated to make payments when due if the deposited funds are not sufficient.

The obligations and rights under the senior debt indenture regarding compensation, reimbursement and indemnification of the trustee, optional redemption, mandatory and optional scheduled installment payments, if any, registration of transfer and exchange of the senior debt securities of such series, replacement of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen senior debt securities and certain other administrative provisions will continue even if Citigroup exercises its defeasance and discharge or covenant defeasance options (Senior Debt Indenture, Sections 11.03 and 11.04).

Under current United States federal income tax law, defeasance and discharge should be treated as a taxable exchange of the senior debt securities for an interest in the trust. As a consequence, each holder of the senior debt securities would recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the holder's interest in the trust and holder's adjusted tax basis for the senior debt securities deemed exchanged, except to the extent attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, which will be taxable as ordinary income. Each holder would then be required to include in income his share of any income, gain and loss recognized by the trust. Even though United States federal income tax on the deemed exchange

17

would be imposed on a holder, the holder would not receive any cash until the maturity or an earlier redemption of the senior debt securities, except for any current interest payments. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the specific consequences of a defeasance and discharge, including the applicability and effect of tax laws other than the United States federal income tax law.

Under current United States federal income tax law, a covenant defeasance would not be treated as a taxable exchange of senior debt securities.

Subordinated Debt Indenture. The defeasance and discharge and covenant defeasance provisions contained in the subordinated debt indenture are substantially the same as those described above for the senior debt indenture (Subordinated Debt Indenture, Sections 11.01, 11.02, 11.03, 11.04 and 11.05).

Under the subordinated debt indenture, Citigroup must also deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the subordinated debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and discharge or covenant defeasance and that United States federal income tax would be imposed on the holders in the same manner as if such defeasance and discharge had not occurred. In the case of a defeasance and discharge, such opinion must be based upon a ruling or administrative pronouncement of the Internal Revenue Service.

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEES

Citigroup has had and may continue to have banking relationships with the trustees in the ordinary course of business.

You should read the particular terms of the common stock warrants that are offered by Citigroup, which will be described in more detail in a prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will also state whether any of the general provisions summarized below do not apply to the common stock warrants being offered. The prospectus supplement may add, update or change the terms and conditions of the common stock warrants as described in this prospectus.

A copy of the form of common stock warrant agreement, including the form of common stock warrant certificate, will be filed as an exhibit to a document incorporated by reference in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. You should read the more detailed provisions of the common stock warrant agreement and the common stock warrant certificate for provisions that may be important to you.

Holders of common stock warrants will not be entitled, solely by virtue of being holders, to vote, to consent, to receive dividends, to receive notice as stockholders with respect to any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors or any other matter, or to exercise any rights whatsoever as a holder of the common stock purchasable upon exercise of the common stock warrants.

MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION

If at any time there is a merger or consolidation involving Citigroup or a sale, transfer, conveyance, other than lease, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Citigroup, then the assuming corporation will succeed to the obligations of Citigroup under the common stock warrant agreement and the related common stock warrants. Citigroup will then be relieved of any further obligation under the common stock warrant agreement and common stock warrants.

20

DESCRIPTION OF INDEX WARRANTS

The following briefly summarizes the material terms and provisions of the index warrants, other than pricing and related terms disclosed in the accompanying prospectus supplement. You should read the particular terms of the index warrants that are offered by Citigroup, which will be described in more detail in a prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will also state whether any of the general provisions summarized below do not apply to the index warrants being offered.

Index warrants may be issued independently or together with debt securities and may be attached to, or separate from, any such offered securities. Each series of index warrants will be issued under a separate index warrant agreement to be entered into between Citigroup and a bank or trust company, as index warrant agent. A single bank or trust company may act as index warrant agent for more than one series of index warrants. The index warrant agent will act solely as the agent of Citigroup under the applicable index warrant agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any owners of index warrants. A copy of the form of index warrant agreement, including the form of certificate or global certificate that will represent the index warrant certificate, will be filed as an exhibit to a document incorporated by reference in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. You should read the more detailed provisions of the index warrant agreement and the index warrant certificate or index warrant global certificate for provisions that may be important to you.

GENERAL

The index warrant agreement does not limit the number of index warrants that may be issued. Citigroup will have the right to "reopen" a previous series of index warrants by issuing additional index warrants of such series.

Each index warrant will entitle the warrant holder to receive from Citigroup, upon exercise, cash or securities. The amount in cash or number of securities will be determined by referring to an index calculated on the basis of prices, yields, levels or other specified objective measures in respect of:

- one or more specified securities or securities indices;

- one or more specified foreign currencies or currency indices;

- a combination thereof; or

- changes in such measure or differences between two or more such measures.

The prospectus supplement for a series of index warrants will describe the formula or methodology to be applied to the relevant index or indices to determine the amount payable or distributable on the index warrants.

If so specified in the prospectus supplement, the index warrants will entitle the warrant holder to receive from Citigroup a minimum or maximum amount upon automatic exercise at expiration or the happening of any other event described in the prospectus supplement.

The index warrants will be deemed to be automatically exercised upon expiration. Upon such automatic exercise, warrant holders will be entitled to receive the cash amount or number of securities due, if any, on such exercise.

You should read the prospectus supplement applicable to a series of index warrants for any circumstances in which the payment or distribution or the determination of the payment or distribution on the index warrants may be postponed or exercised early or cancelled. The amount due after any such delay or postponement, or early exercise or cancellation, will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, Citigroup will not purchase or take delivery of or sell or deliver any securities or currencies, including the underlying assets, other than

21

the payment of any cash or distribution of any securities due on the index warrants, from or to warrant holders pursuant to the index warrants.

The applicable prospectus supplement relating to a series of index warrants will describe the following:

- the aggregate number of such index warrants;

- the offering price of such index warrants;

- the measure or measures by which payment or distribution on such index warrants will be determined;

- certain information regarding the underlying securities, foreign currencies or indices;

- the amount of cash or number of securities due, or the means by which the amount of cash or number of securities due may be calculated, on exercise of the index warrants, including automatic exercise, or upon cancellation;

- the date on which the index warrants may first be exercised and the date on which they expire;

- any minimum number of index warrants exercisable at any one time;

- any maximum number of index warrants that may, at Citigroup's election, be exercised by all warrant holders or by any person or entity on any day;

- any provisions permitting a warrant holder to condition an exercise of index warrants;

- the method by which the index warrants may be exercised;

- the currency in which the index warrants will be denominated and in which payments on the index warrants will be made or the securities that may be distributed in respect of the index warrants;

- the method of making any foreign currency translation applicable to payments or distributions on the index warrants;

- the method of providing for a substitute index or indices or otherwise determining the amount payable in connection with the exercise of index warrants if an index changes or is no longer available;

- the time or times at which amounts will be payable or distributable in respect of such index warrants following exercise or automatic exercise;

- any national securities exchange on, or self-regulatory organization with, which such index warrants will be listed;

- any provisions for issuing such index warrants in certificated form;

- if such index warrants are not issued in book-entry form, the place or places at and the procedures by which payments or distributions on the index warrants will be made; and

- any other terms of such index warrants.

Prospective purchasers of index warrants should be aware of special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to instruments such as the index warrants. The prospectus supplement relating to each series of index warrants will describe these tax considerations. The summary of United States federal income tax considerations contained in the prospectus supplement will be presented for informational purposes only, however, and will not be intended as legal or tax advice to prospective purchasers. You are urged to consult your tax advisors before purchasing any index warrants.

LISTING

Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, the index warrants will be listed on a national securities exchange or with a self-regulatory organization, in each case as specified in the

22

prospectus supplement. It is expected that such organization will stop trading a series of index warrants as of the close of business on the related expiration date of such index warrants.

MODIFICATION

The index warrant agreement and the terms of the related index warrants may be amended by Citigroup and the index warrant agent, without the consent of the holders of any index warrants, for any of the following purposes:

- curing any ambiguity or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective or inconsistent provision;

- maintaining the listing of such index warrants on any national securities exchange or with any other self-regulatory organization;

- registering such index warrants under the Exchange Act, permitting the issuance of individual index warrant certificates to warrant holders, reflecting the issuance by Citigroup of additional index warrants of the same series or reflecting the appointment of a successor depositary; or

- for any other purpose that Citigroup may deem necessary or desirable and which will not materially and adversely affect the interests of the warrant holders.

Citigroup and the index warrant agent also may modify or amend the index warrant agreement and the terms of the related index warrants, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority of the then outstanding warrants of each series affected by such modification or amendment, for any purpose. However, no such modification or amendment may be made without the consent of each holder affected thereby if such modification or amendment:

- changes the amount to be paid to the warrant holder or the manner in which that amount is to be determined;

- shortens the period of time during which the index warrants may be exercised;

- otherwise materially and adversely affects the exercise rights of the holders of the index warrants; or

- reduces the percentage of the number of outstanding index warrants the consent of whose holders is required for modification or amendment of the index warrant agreement or the terms of the related index warrants.

MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION

If at any time there is a merger or consolidation involving Citigroup or a sale, transfer, conveyance, other than lease, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Citigroup, then the assuming corporation will succeed to the obligations of Citigroup under the index warrant agreement and the related index warrants. Citigroup will then be relieved of any further obligation under the index warrant agreement and index warrants.

ENFORCEABILITY OF RIGHTS BY WARRANT HOLDERS

Any warrant holder may, without the consent of the index warrant agent or any other warrant holder, enforce by appropriate legal action on its own behalf his right to exercise, and to receive payment for, its index warrants.

23

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

GENERAL

As of the date of this prospectus, Citigroup's authorized capital stock consists of 15 billion shares of common stock and 30 million shares of preferred stock. The following briefly summarizes the material terms of Citigroup's common stock and outstanding preferred stock. You should read the more detailed provisions of Citigroup's certificate of incorporation and the certificate of designation relating to a series of preferred stock for provisions that may be important to you.

COMMON STOCK

As of March 31, 2004, Citigroup had outstanding approximately 5.171 billion shares of its common stock. Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote per share for the election of directors and for all other matters to be voted on by Citigroup's stockholders. Except as otherwise provided by law, the holders of shares of common stock vote as one class. Holders of common stock may not cumulate their votes in the election of directors, and are entitled to share equally in the dividends that may be declared by the board of directors, but only after payment of dividends required to be paid on outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Citigroup, the holders of the common stock share ratably in the assets remaining after payments to creditors and provision for the preference of any preferred stock. There are no preemptive or other subscription rights, conversion rights or redemption or scheduled installment payment provisions relating to shares of common stock. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. The transfer agent and registrar for the common stock is Citibank, N.A. The common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Pacific Exchange under the symbol "C".

PREFERRED STOCK

The general terms of Citigroup's preferred stock are described below under "Description of Preferred Stock."

As of the date of this prospectus, Citigroup had outstanding the following series of preferred stock with the following terms:

Where the above table indicates that the holders of the preferred stock have no general voting rights, this means that they do not vote on matters submitted to a vote of the common stockholders. However, the holders of this preferred stock do have other special voting rights (1) that are required by law, (2) that apply if there is a default in paying dividends for the equivalent of six calendar quarters, in some cases whether or not consecutive and (3) when Citigroup wants to create any class of stock having a preference as to dividends or distributions of assets over such series or alter or change the provisions of the certificate of incorporation so as to adversely affect the powers, preferences or rights of the holders of such series. These special voting rights apply to all series of preferred stock listed above.
(1) The Series V Preferred Stock provides for a cumulative dividend at a rate that changes over time. For each dividend period up to but not including February 15, 2006, the dividend rate will be 5.86% per year. For each dividend period beginning on or after February 15, 2006, the dividend rate will be equal to 0.50% plus the Effective Rate, but not less than 6.00% or more than 12.00%. The dividend rate will be increased in the event of specified changes in the Internal Revenue Code that would decrease the dividends received deduction applicable to corporate stockholders.

(2) The holders of the Series Y Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative quarterly dividend at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) the Short Term Rate and (b) 4.85%. The "Short Term Rate" generally will be equal to either 85% or 78% of the Money Market Yield, as defined in the certificate of incorporation, of the 90-day rate for commercial paper multiplied by the stock's $100,000 per share liquidation value.

(3) Prior to February 15, 2006, in the event of specified changes in the Internal Revenue Code that would decrease the dividends received deduction applicable to corporate stockholders, Citigroup at its option may redeem all, but not less than all, of the Series V Preferred Stock at a price declining over time from $520 per share to $500 per share.

IMPORTANT PROVISIONS OF CITIGROUP'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS

Business Combinations. The certificate of incorporation generally requires the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the then outstanding shares of voting stock, voting together as a single class, to approve any merger or other business combination between Citigroup and any interested stockholder, unless (1) the transaction has been approved by a majority of the continuing directors of Citigroup or (2) minimum price, form of consideration and procedural requirements are satisfied. An "interested stockholder" as defined in the certificate of incorporation generally means a person who owns at least 25% of the voting stock of Citigroup. A "continuing director", as defined in the certificate of incorporation, generally means a director who is not related to an interested stockholder who held that position before an interested stockholder became an interested stockholder.

Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws. The affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote for the election of directors is required to amend the provisions of the certificate of incorporation relating to the issuance of preferred stock or common stock. Amendments of provisions of the certificate of incorporation relating to business combinations generally require a vote of the holders of 66 2/3% of the then outstanding shares of voting stock, unless 75% of the board of directors recommend such amendment and the directors comprising such 75% would qualify as continuing directors. The board of directors, at any meeting, may alter or amend the by-laws upon the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the entire board of directors.

Vacancies. Vacancies on the board of directors resulting from an increase in the number of directors may be filled by a majority of the board of directors then in office, so long as a quorum is present. Any other vacancies on the board of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum. Any director elected to fill a vacancy that did not result from increasing the size of the board of directors shall hold office for a term coinciding with the predecessor director's remaining term.

25

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK

The following briefly summarizes the material terms of Citigroup's preferred stock, other than pricing and related terms disclosed in the accompanying prospectus supplement. You should read the particular terms of any series of preferred stock offered by Citigroup, which will be described in more detail in any prospectus supplement relating to such series, together with the more detailed provisions of Citigroup's restated certificate of incorporation and the certificate of designation relating to each particular series of preferred stock for provisions that may be important to you. The certificate of incorporation, as amended and restated, is incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The certificate of designation relating to the particular series of preferred stock offered by the accompanying prospectus supplement and this prospectus will be filed as an exhibit to a document incorporated by reference in the registration statement. The prospectus supplement will also state whether any of the terms summarized below do not apply to the series of preferred stock being offered. For a description of Citigroup's outstanding preferred stock, see "Description of Capital Stock."

Under Citigroup's certificate of incorporation, the board of directors of Citigroup is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series, and to establish from time to time a series of preferred stock with the following terms specified:

- the number of shares to be included in the series;

- the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of the series; and

- the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such series.

Prior to the issuance of any series of preferred stock, the board of directors of Citigroup will adopt resolutions creating and designating the series as a series of preferred stock and the resolutions will be filed in a certificate of designation as an amendment to the certificate of incorporation. The term "board of directors of Citigroup" includes any duly authorized committee.

The rights of holders of the preferred stock offered may be adversely affected by the rights of holders of any shares of preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The board of directors may cause shares of preferred stock to be issued in public or private transactions for any proper corporate purpose. Examples of proper corporate purposes include issuances to obtain additional financing in connection with acquisitions or otherwise, and issuances to officers, directors and employees of Citigroup and its subsidiaries pursuant to benefit plans or otherwise. Shares of preferred stock issued by Citigroup may have the effect of rendering more difficult or discouraging an acquisition of Citigroup deemed undesirable by the board of directors of Citigroup.

Under existing interpretations of The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, if the holders of the preferred stock become entitled to vote for the election of directors because dividends on the preferred stock are in arrears as described below, preferred stock may then be deemed a "class of voting securities" and a holder of 25% or more of the preferred stock or a holder of 5% or more of the preferred stock that is otherwise a bank holding company may then be regulated as a "bank holding company" with respect to Citigroup in accordance with the Bank Holding Company Act. In addition, at such time:

- any bank holding company or foreign bank with a U.S. presence generally would be required to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve Board under the BHC Act to acquire or retain 5% or more of the preferred stock; and

- any person other than a bank holding company may be required to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve Board under the Change in Bank Control Act to acquire or retain 10% or more of the preferred stock.

Before exercising its option to redeem any shares of preferred stock, Citigroup will obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve Board if then required by applicable law.

The preferred stock will be, when issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Holders of preferred stock will not have any preemptive or subscription rights to acquire more stock of Citigroup.

26

The transfer agent, registrar, dividend disbursing agent and redemption agent for shares of each series of preferred stock will be named in the prospectus supplement relating to such series.

RANK

Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement relating to the shares of a series of preferred stock, such shares will rank on an equal basis with each other series of preferred stock and prior to the common stock as to dividends and distributions of assets.

DIVIDENDS

Holders of each series of preferred stock will be entitled to receive cash dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors of Citigroup out of funds legally available for dividends. The rates and dates of payment of dividends will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to each series of preferred stock. Dividends will be payable to holders of record of preferred stock as they appear on the books of Citigroup or, if applicable, the records of the depositary referred to below under "Description of Depositary Shares," on the record dates fixed by the board of directors. Dividends on a series of preferred stock may be cumulative or noncumulative.

Citigroup may not declare, pay or set apart for payment dividends on the preferred stock unless full dividends on other series of preferred stock that rank on an equal or senior basis have been paid or sufficient funds have been set apart for payment for

- all prior dividend periods of other series of preferred stock that pay dividends on a cumulative basis; or

- the immediately preceding dividend period of other series of preferred stock that pay dividends on a noncumulative basis.

Partial dividends declared on shares of preferred stock and each other series of preferred stock ranking on an equal basis as to dividends will be declared pro rata. A pro rata declaration means that the ratio of dividends declared per share to accrued dividends per share will be the same for each series of preferred stock.

Similarly, Citigroup may not declare, pay or set apart for payment non-stock dividends or make other payments on the common stock or any other stock of Citigroup ranking junior to the preferred stock until full dividends on the preferred stock have been paid or set apart for payment for

- all prior dividend periods if the preferred stock pays dividends on a cumulative basis; or

- the immediately preceding dividend period if the preferred stock pays dividends on a noncumulative basis.

CONVERSION AND EXCHANGE

The prospectus supplement for a series of preferred stock will state the terms, if any, on which shares of that series are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Citigroup's common stock.

REDEMPTION

If so specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, a series of preferred stock may be redeemable at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of Citigroup or the holder thereof and may be mandatorily redeemed.

Any partial redemptions of preferred stock will be made in a way that the board of directors decides is equitable.

27

Unless Citigroup defaults in the payment of the redemption price, dividends will cease to accrue after the redemption date on shares of preferred stock called for redemption and all rights of holders of such shares will terminate except for the right to receive the redemption price.

LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE

Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Citigroup, holders of each series of preferred stock will be entitled to receive distributions upon liquidation in the amount set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to such series of preferred stock, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends. Such distributions will be made before any distribution is made on any securities ranking junior relating to liquidation, including common stock.

If the liquidation amounts payable relating to the preferred stock of any series and any other securities ranking on a parity regarding liquidation rights are not paid in full, the holders of the preferred stock of such series and such other securities will share in any such distribution of available assets of Citigroup on a ratable basis in proportion to the full liquidation preferences. Holders of such series of preferred stock will not be entitled to any other amounts from Citigroup after they have received their full liquidation preference.

VOTING RIGHTS

The holders of shares of preferred stock will have no voting rights, except:

- as otherwise stated in the prospectus supplement;

- as otherwise stated in the certificate of designation establishing such series; and

- as required by applicable law.

28

DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES

The following briefly summarizes the material provisions of the deposit agreement and of the depositary shares and depositary receipts, other than pricing and related terms disclosed in the accompanying prospectus supplement. You should read the particular terms of any depositary shares and any depositary receipts that are offered by Citigroup and any deposit agreement relating to a particular series of preferred stock, which will be described in more detail in a prospectus supplement. The prospectus supplement will also state whether any of the generalized provisions summarized below do not apply to the depositary shares or depositary receipts being offered. A copy of the form of deposit agreement, including the form of depositary receipt, is incorporated by reference as an exhibit in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. You should read the more detailed provisions of the deposit agreement and the form of depositary receipt for provisions that may be important to you.

GENERAL

Citigroup may, at its option, elect to offer fractional shares of preferred stock, rather than full shares of preferred stock. In such event, Citigroup will issue receipts for depositary shares, each of which will represent a fraction of a share of a particular series of preferred stock.

The shares of any series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares will be deposited under a deposit agreement between Citigroup and a bank or trust company selected by Citigroup having its principal office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, as preferred stock depositary. Each owner of a depositary share will be entitled to all the rights and preferences of the underlying preferred stock, including dividend, voting, redemption, conversion and liquidation rights, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of preferred stock represented by such depositary share.

The depositary shares will be evidenced by depositary receipts issued pursuant to the deposit agreement. Depositary receipts will be distributed to those persons purchasing the fractional shares of preferred stock in accordance with the terms of the applicable prospectus supplement.

DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS

The preferred stock depositary will distribute all cash dividends or other cash distributions received in respect of the deposited preferred stock to the record holders of depositary shares relating to such preferred stock in proportion to the number of such depositary shares owned by such holders.

The preferred stock depositary will distribute any property received by it other than cash to the record holders of depositary shares entitled thereto. If the preferred stock depositary determines that it is not feasible to make such distribution, it may, with the approval of Citigroup, sell such property and distribute the net proceeds from such sale to such holders.

REDEMPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK

If a series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares is to be redeemed, the depositary shares will be redeemed from the proceeds received by the preferred stock depositary resulting from the redemption, in whole or in part, of such series of preferred stock. The depositary shares will be redeemed by the preferred stock depositary at a price per depositary share equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per share payable in respect of the shares of preferred stock so redeemed.

Whenever Citigroup redeems shares of preferred stock held by the preferred stock depositary, the preferred stock depositary will redeem as of the same date the number of depositary shares representing the shares of preferred stock so redeemed. If fewer than all the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by the preferred stock depositary by lot or ratably or by any other equitable method as the preferred stock depositary may decide.

29

WITHDRAWAL OF PREFERRED STOCK

Unless the related depositary shares have previously been called for redemption, any holder of depositary shares may receive the number of whole shares of the related series of preferred stock and any money or other property represented by such depositary receipts after surrendering the depositary receipts at the corporate trust office of the preferred stock depositary. Holders of depositary shares making such withdrawals will be entitled to receive whole shares of preferred stock on the basis set forth in the related prospectus supplement for such series of preferred stock.

However, holders of such whole shares of preferred stock will not be entitled to deposit such preferred stock under the deposit agreement or to receive depositary receipts for such preferred stock after such withdrawal. If the depositary shares surrendered by the holder in connection with such withdrawal exceed the number of depositary shares that represent the number of whole shares of preferred stock to be withdrawn, the preferred stock depositary will deliver to such holder at the same time a new depositary receipt evidencing such excess number of depositary shares.

VOTING DEPOSITED PREFERRED STOCK

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of any series of deposited preferred stock are entitled to vote, the preferred stock depositary will mail the information contained in such notice of meeting to the record holders of the depositary shares relating to such series of preferred stock. Each record holder of such depositary shares on the record date will be entitled to instruct the preferred stock depositary to vote the amount of the preferred stock represented by such holder's depositary shares. The preferred stock depositary will try to vote the amount of such series of preferred stock represented by such depositary shares in accordance with such instructions.

Citigroup will agree to take all reasonable actions that the preferred stock depositary determines are necessary to enable the preferred stock depositary to vote as instructed. The preferred stock depositary will vote all shares of any series of preferred stock held by it proportionately with instructions received if it does not receive specific instructions from the holders of depositary shares representing such series of preferred stock.

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT

The form of depositary receipt evidencing the depositary shares and any provision of the deposit agreement may at any time be amended by agreement between Citigroup and the preferred stock depositary. However, any amendment that imposes additional charges or materially and adversely alters any substantial existing right of the holders of depositary shares will not be effective unless such amendment has been approved by the holders of at least a majority of the affected depositary shares then outstanding. Every holder of an outstanding depositary receipt at the time any such amendment becomes effective, or any transferee of such holder, shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such depositary receipt, or by reason of the acquisition thereof, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the deposit agreement, which has been amended thereby. The deposit agreement automatically terminates if:

- all outstanding depositary shares have been redeemed;

- each share of preferred stock has been converted into or exchanged for common stock; or

- a final distribution in respect of the preferred stock has been made to the holders of depositary shares in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Citigroup.

The deposit agreement may be terminated by Citigroup at any time and the preferred stock depositary will give notice of such termination to the record holders of all outstanding depositary receipts not less than 30 days prior to the termination date. In such event, the preferred stock depositary will deliver or make available for delivery to holders of depositary shares, upon surrender of such depositary shares, the number of whole or fractional shares of the related series of preferred stock as are represented by such depositary shares.

30

CHARGES OF PREFERRED STOCK DEPOSITARY; TAXES AND OTHER GOVERNMENTAL CHARGES

No fees, charges and expenses of the preferred stock depositary or any agent of the preferred stock depositary or of any registrar shall be payable by any person other than Citigroup, except for any taxes and other governmental charges and except as provided in the deposit agreement. If the preferred stock depositary incurs fees, charges or expenses for which it is not otherwise liable hereunder at the election of a holder of a depositary receipt or other person, such holder or other person will be liable for such fees, charges and expenses.

RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF DEPOSITARY

The preferred stock depositary may resign at any time by delivering to Citigroup notice of its intent to do so, and Citigroup may at any time remove the preferred stock depositary, any such resignation or removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor preferred stock depositary and its acceptance of such appointment. Such successor preferred stock depositary must be appointed within 60 days after delivery of the notice of resignation or removal and must be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.

MISCELLANEOUS

The preferred stock depositary will forward all reports and communications from Citigroup that are delivered to the preferred stock depositary and that Citigroup is required to furnish to the holders of the deposited preferred stock.

Neither the preferred stock depositary nor Citigroup will be liable if it is prevented or delayed by law or any circumstances beyond its control in performing its obligations under the deposit agreement. The obligations of Citigroup and the preferred stock depositary under the deposit agreement will be limited to performance with honest intentions of their duties thereunder and they will not be obligated to prosecute or defend any legal proceeding in respect of any depositary shares, depositary receipts or shares of preferred stock unless satisfactory indemnity is furnished. Citigroup and the preferred stock depositary may rely upon written advice of counsel or accountants, or upon information provided by holders of depositary receipts or other persons believed to be competent and on documents believed to be genuine.

31

DESCRIPTION OF STOCK PURCHASE CONTRACTS AND STOCK PURCHASE UNITS

Citigroup may issue stock purchase contracts, including contracts obligating holders to purchase from or sell to Citigroup, and Citigroup to sell to or purchase from the holders, a specified number of shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock or depositary shares at a future date or dates. The consideration per share of common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares and the number of shares of each may be fixed at the time the stock purchase contracts are issued or may be determined by reference to a specific formula set forth in the stock purchase contracts. The stock purchase contracts may be issued separately or as part of units, often known as stock purchase units, consisting of a stock purchase contract and any combination of:

- debt securities,

- capital securities issued by trusts, all of whose common securities are owned by Citigroup or by one of its subsidiaries,

- junior subordinated debt securities; or

- debt obligations of third parties, including U.S. Treasury securities,

which may secure the holders' obligations to purchase the common stock, preferred stock or depositary shares under the stock purchase contracts. The stock purchase contracts may require Citigroup to make periodic payments to the holders of the stock purchase units or vice versa, and these payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis. The stock purchase contracts may require holders to secure their obligations under those contracts in a specified manner.

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of the stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units, including, if applicable, collateral or depositary arrangements.

32

BOOK-ENTRY PROCEDURES AND SETTLEMENT

Most series of debt securities and index warrants will be book-entry securities. Upon issuance, all book-entry securities of the same issue will be represented by one or more fully registered global securities, without interest coupons. Each global security will be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, a securities depositary, and will be registered in the name of DTC or a nominee of DTC. DTC will thus be the only registered holder of these debt securities or index warrants and will be considered the sole owner of the securities for purposes of the indenture or index warrant agreement.

Purchasers may only hold interests in the global notes or index warrants through DTC if they are a participant in the DTC system. Purchasers may also hold interests through a securities intermediary -- banks, brokerage houses and other institutions that maintain securities accounts for customers -- that has an account with DTC or its nominee. DTC will maintain accounts showing the securities holdings of its participants, and these participants will in turn maintain accounts showing the securities holdings of their customers. Some of these customers may themselves be securities intermediaries holding debt securities or index warrants for their customers. Thus, each beneficial owner of a book-entry security will hold that security indirectly through a hierarchy of intermediaries, with DTC at the "top" and the beneficial owner's own securities intermediary at the "bottom."

The securities of each beneficial owner of a book-entry security will be evidenced solely by entries on the books of the beneficial owner's securities intermediary. The actual purchaser of the securities will generally not be entitled to have the securities represented by the global securities registered in its name and will not be considered the owner under the indenture or index warrant agreement. In most cases, a beneficial owner will also not be able to obtain a paper certificate evidencing the holder's ownership of securities. The book-entry system for holding securities eliminates the need for physical movement of certificates and is the system through which most publicly traded common stock is held in the United States. However, the laws of some jurisdictions require some purchasers of securities to take physical delivery of their securities in definitive form. These laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge book-entry securities.

A beneficial owner of book-entry securities represented by a global security may exchange the securities for definitive (paper) securities only if:

(a) DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such global security and Citigroup is unable to find a qualified replacement for DTC within 90 days;

(b) at any time DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or

(c) Citigroup in its sole discretion decides to allow some or all book-entry securities to be exchangeable for definitive securities in registered form.

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, any global security that is exchangeable will be exchangeable in whole for definitive securities in registered form, with the same terms and of an equal aggregate principal amount, in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000. Definitive notes or index warrants will be registered in the name or names of the person or persons specified by DTC in a written instruction to the registrar of the securities. DTC may base its written instruction upon directions it receives from its participants.

In this prospectus and the accompanying prospectus supplement, for book-entry securities, references to actions taken by security holders will mean actions taken by DTC upon instructions from its participants, and references to payments and notices of redemption to security holders will mean payments and notices of redemption to DTC as the registered holder of the securities for distribution to participants in accordance with DTC's procedures.

DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York banking law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial

33

Code and a "clearing agency" registered under section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

Citigroup will not have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in the book-entry securities or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to the beneficial ownership interests.

The information in this section about DTC has been provided by DTC for information purposes only. Citigroup takes no responsibility for the accuracy of this information, and this information is not intended to serve as a representation, warranty or contract modification of any kind.

34

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Citigroup may offer the offered securities in one or more of the following ways from time to time:

- to or through underwriters or dealers;

- by itself directly;

- through agents; or

- through a combination of any of these methods of sale.

Any such underwriters, dealers or agents may include any broker-dealer subsidiary of Citigroup.

The prospectus supplement relating to an offering of offered securities will set forth the terms of such offering, including:

- the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents;

- the purchase price of the offered securities and the proceeds to Citigroup from such sale;

- any underwriting discounts and commissions or agency fees and other items constituting underwriters' or agents' compensation;

- the initial public offering price;

- any discounts or concessions to be allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

- any securities exchanges on which such offered securities may be listed.

Any initial public offering prices, discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

In compliance with the guidelines of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., the maximum discount or commission to be received by any NASD member or independent broker-dealer may not exceed 8% of the aggregate amount of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement; however, it is anticipated that the maximum commission or discount to be received in any particular offering of securities will be significantly less than this amount.

If underwriters are used in an offering of offered securities, such offered securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The securities may be offered either to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or by one or more underwriters without a syndicate. Unless otherwise set forth in the prospectus supplement, the underwriters will not be obligated to purchase offered securities unless specified conditions are satisfied, and if the underwriters do purchase any offered securities, they will purchase all offered securities.

In connection with underwritten offerings of the offered securities and in accordance with applicable law and industry practice, underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the offered securities at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market, including by entering stabilizing bids, effecting syndicate covering transactions or imposing penalty bids, each of which is described below.

- A stabilizing bid means the placing of any bid, or the effecting of any purchase, for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of a security.

- A syndicate covering transaction means the placing of any bid on behalf of the underwriting syndicate or the effecting of any purchase to reduce a short position created in connection with the offering.

35

- A penalty bid means an arrangement that permits the managing underwriter to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member in connection with the offering when offered securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in syndicate covering transactions.

These transactions may be effected on the NYSE, in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise. Underwriters are not required to engage in any of these activities, or to continue such activities if commenced.

If dealers are utilized in the sale of offered securities, Citigroup will sell such offered securities to the dealers as principals. The dealers may then resell such offered securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by such dealers at the time of resale. The names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction will be set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to that transaction.

Offered securities may be sold directly by Citigroup to one or more institutional purchasers, or through agents designated by Citigroup from time to time, at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered will be named, and any commissions payable by Citigroup to such agent will be set forth, in the prospectus supplement relating to that offering. Unless otherwise indicated in such prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

As one of the means of direct issuance of offered securities, Citigroup may utilize the services of an entity through which it may conduct an electronic "dutch auction" or similar offering of the offered securities among potential purchasers who are eligible to participate in the auction or offering of such offered securities, if so described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

If so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, Citigroup will authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase offered securities from Citigroup at the public offering price set forth in such prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. Such contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement and the prospectus supplement will set forth the commission payable for solicitation of such contracts.

The broker-dealer subsidiaries of Citigroup, including Citigroup Global Markets Inc., are members of the NASD and may participate in distributions of the offered securities. Accordingly, offerings of offered securities in which Citigroup's broker-dealer subsidiaries participate will conform with the requirements set forth in Rule 2720 of the Conduct Rules of the NASD.

This prospectus, together with any applicable prospectus supplement, may also be used by any broker-dealer subsidiary of Citigroup in connection with offers and sales of the offered securities in market-making transactions, including block positioning and block trades, at negotiated prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of sale. Any of Citigroup's broker-dealer subsidiaries may act as principal or agent in such transactions. None of Citigroup's broker-dealer subsidiaries have any obligation to make a market in any of the offered securities and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice, at its sole discretion.

One or more dealers, referred to as "remarketing firms," may also offer or sell the securities, if the prospectus supplement so indicates, in connection with a remarketing arrangement contemplated by the terms of the securities. Remarketing firms will act as principals for their own accounts or as agents. The prospectus supplement will identify any remarketing firm and the terms of its agreement, if any, with Citigroup and will describe the remarketing firm's compensation. Remarketing firms may be deemed to be underwriters in connection with the remarketing of the securities.

Underwriters, dealers and agents may be entitled, under agreements with Citigroup, to indemnification by Citigroup relating to material misstatements and omissions. Underwriters, dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, Citigroup and affiliates of Citigroup in the ordinary course of business.

36

Except for securities issued upon a reopening of a previous series, each series of offered securities will be a new issue of securities and will have no established trading market. Any underwriters to whom offered securities are sold for public offering and sale may make a market in such offered securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. The offered securities may or may not be listed on a securities exchange. No assurance can be given that there will be a market for the offered securities.

37

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

A fiduciary of a pension, profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), should consider the fiduciary standards of ERISA in the context of the ERISA plan's particular circumstances before authorizing an investment in the offered securities of Citigroup. Among other factors, the fiduciary should consider whether such an investment is in accordance with the documents governing the ERISA plan and whether the investment is appropriate for the ERISA plan in view of its overall investment policy and diversification of its portfolio.

Certain provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), prohibit employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that are subject to Title I of ERISA, plans described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code (including, without limitation, retirement accounts and Keogh Plans), and entities whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan's investment in such entities (including, without limitation, as applicable, insurance company general accounts), from engaging in certain transactions involving "plan assets" with parties that are "parties in interest" under ERISA or "disqualified persons" under the Code with respect to the plan or entity. Governmental and other plans that are not subject to ERISA or to the Code may be subject to similar restrictions under state, federal or local law. Any employee benefit plan or other entity, to which such provisions of ERISA, the Code or similar law apply, proposing to acquire the offered securities should consult with its legal counsel.

Citigroup has subsidiaries, including insurance company subsidiaries and broker-dealer subsidiaries, that provide services to many employee benefit plans. Citigroup and any such direct or indirect subsidiary of Citigroup may each be considered a "party in interest" and a "disqualified person" to a large number of plans. A purchase of offered securities of Citigroup by any such plan would be likely to result in a prohibited transaction between the plan and Citigroup.

Accordingly, unless otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, offered securities may not be purchased, held or disposed of by any plan or any other person investing "plan assets" of any plan that is subject to the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or other similar law, unless one of the following Prohibited Transaction Class Exemptions ("PTCE") issued by the Department of Labor or a similar exemption or exception applies to such purchase, holding and disposition:

- PTCE 96-23 for transactions determined by in-house asset managers,

- PTCE 95-60 for transactions involving insurance company general accounts,

- PTCE 91-38 for transactions involving bank collective investment funds,

- PTCE 90-1 for transactions involving insurance company separate accounts, or

- PTCE 84-14 for transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers.

Unless otherwise provided in the related prospectus supplement, any purchaser of the offered securities or any interest therein will be deemed to have represented and warranted to Citigroup on each day including the date of its purchase of the offered securities through and including the date of disposition of such offered securities that either:

(a) it is not a plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and is not purchasing such securities or interest therein on behalf of, or with "plan assets" of, any such plan;

(b) its purchase, holding and disposition of such securities are not and will not be prohibited because they are exempted by one or more of the following prohibited transaction exemptions: PTCE 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 or 84-14; or

(c) it is a governmental plan (as defined in section 3 of ERISA) or other plan that is not subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code and its purchase, holding and disposition of such securities are not otherwise prohibited.

Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties imposed upon persons involved in prohibited transactions, it is important that any person considering the purchase of the offered securities with plan

38

assets consult with its counsel regarding the consequences under ERISA and the Code, or other similar law, of the acquisition and ownership of offered securities and the availability of exemptive relief under the class exemptions listed above.

LEGAL MATTERS

John R. Dye, Esq., General Counsel -- Capital Markets of Citigroup, 425 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10043 and/or Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, New York, New York, or counsel to be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement, will act as legal counsel to Citigroup. Mr. Dye beneficially owns, or has rights to acquire under Citigroup's employee benefit plans, an aggregate of less than 1% of Citigroup's common stock. Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton, New York, New York, or other counsel identified in the applicable prospectus supplement, will act as legal counsel to the underwriters. Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton has from time to time acted as counsel for Citigroup and its subsidiaries and may do so in the future.

RISK FACTORS

CHANGES IN EXCHANGE RATES AND EXCHANGE CONTROLS COULD RESULT IN A SUBSTANTIAL LOSS TO YOU.

An investment in foreign currency notes, which are notes denominated in a specified currency other than U.S. dollars, entails significant risks that are not associated with a similar investment in a security denominated in U.S. dollars. Similarly, an investment in an indexed note, on which all or a part of any payment due is based on a currency other than U.S. dollars, has significant risks that are not associated with a similar investment in non-indexed notes. Such risks include, but are not limited to:

- the possibility of significant market changes in rates of exchange between U.S. dollars and such specified currency;

- the possibility of significant changes in rates of exchange between U.S. dollars and the specified currency resulting from official redenomination relating to such specified currency; and

- the possibility of the imposition or modification of foreign exchange controls by either the United States or foreign governments.

Such risks generally depend on factors over which Citigroup has no control and which cannot be readily foreseen, such as

- economic events;

- political events; and

- the supply of, and demand for, the relevant currencies.

In recent years, rates of exchange between the U.S. dollar and some foreign currencies in which Citigroup's notes may be denominated, and between these foreign currencies and other foreign currencies, have been volatile. This volatility may be expected in the future. Fluctuations that have occurred in any particular exchange rate in the past are not necessarily indicative, however, of fluctuations that may occur in the rate during the term of any foreign currency note. Depreciation of the specified currency of a foreign currency note against U.S. dollars would result in a decrease in the effective yield of such foreign currency note below its coupon rate and could result in a substantial loss to the investor on a U.S. dollar basis.

Governments have imposed from time to time, and may in the future impose, exchange controls that could affect exchange rates as well as the availability of a specified currency other than U.S. dollars at the time of payment of principal, any premium, or interest on a foreign currency note. There can be no assurance that exchange controls will not restrict or prohibit payments of principal, any premium, or interest denominated in any such specified currency.

Even if there are no actual exchange controls, it is possible that such specified currency would not be available to Citigroup when payments on such note are due because of circumstances beyond the control of Citigroup. In this event, Citigroup will make required payments in U.S. dollars on the basis described in this prospectus supplement. You should consult your own financial and legal advisors as to the risks of an investment in notes denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars. See "-- The Unavailability of Currencies Could Result in a Substantial Loss to You" and "Description of the Notes -- Payment of Principal and Interest" below.

The information set forth in this prospectus supplement is directed to prospective purchasers of notes who are United States residents. Citigroup disclaims any responsibility to advise prospective purchasers who are residents of countries other than the United States regarding any matters that may affect the purchase or holding of, or receipt of payments of principal, premium or interest on, notes. Such persons should consult their advisors with regard to these matters. Any pricing supplement relating to notes having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars will contain a description of any material exchange controls affecting such currency and any other required information concerning such currency.

S-3

THE UNAVAILABILITY OF CURRENCIES COULD RESULT IN A SUBSTANTIAL LOSS TO YOU.

Except as set forth below, if payment on a note is required to be made in a specified currency other than U.S. dollars and such currency is --

- unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond Citigroup's control;

- no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency; or

- no longer used for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of the international banking community --

then all payments on such note will be made in U.S. dollars until such currency is again available or so used. The amounts so payable on any date in such currency shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available market exchange rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated in the applicable pricing supplement. Any payment on such note made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute a default or an event of default under the indenture under which such note was issued.

If the specified currency of a note is officially redenominated, other than as a result of European Monetary Union, such as by an official redenomination of any such specified currency that is a composite currency, then the payment obligations of Citigroup on such note will be the amount of redenominated currency that represents the amount of Citigroup's obligations immediately before the redenomination. The notes will not provide for any adjustment to any amount payable under such notes as a result of

- any change in the value of the specified currency of such notes relative to any other currency due solely to fluctuations in exchange rates; or

- any redenomination of any component currency of any composite currency, unless such composite currency is itself officially redenominated.

For a description of European Monetary Union, see "European Monetary Union" in the prospectus and any disclosure on European Monetary Union in an applicable pricing supplement.

Currently, there are limited facilities in the United States for conversion of U.S. dollars into foreign currencies, and vice versa. In addition, banks do not generally offer non-U.S. dollar-denominated checking or savings account facilities in the United States. Accordingly, payments on notes made in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be made from an account at a bank located outside the United States, unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

JUDGMENTS IN A FOREIGN CURRENCY COULD RESULT IN A SUBSTANTIAL LOSS TO YOU.

The notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of New York State. Courts in the United States customarily have not rendered judgments for money damages denominated in any currency other than the U.S. dollar. A 1987 amendment to the Judiciary Law of New York State provides, however, that an action based upon an obligation denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be rendered in the foreign currency of the underlying obligation. Any judgment awarded in such an action will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the entry of the judgment or decree.

CHANGES IN THE VALUE OF UNDERLYING ASSETS OF INDEXED NOTES COULD RESULT IN A SUBSTANTIAL LOSS
TO YOU.

An investment in indexed notes may have significant risks that are not associated with a similar investment in a debt instrument that:

- has a fixed principal amount;

- is denominated in U.S. dollars; and

S-4

- bears interest at either a fixed rate or a floating rate based on nationally published interest rate references.

The risks of a particular indexed note will depend on the terms of such indexed note. Such risks may include, but are not limited to, the possibility of significant changes in the prices of:

- the underlying assets;

- another objective price; and

- economic or other measures making up the relevant index.

Underlying assets could include:

- securities;

- currencies;

- intangibles;

- goods;

- articles; and

- commodities.

The risks associated with a particular indexed note generally depend on factors over which Citigroup has no control and which cannot readily be foreseen. These risks include:

- economic events;

- political events; and

- the supply of, and demand for, the underlying assets.

In recent years, currency exchange rates and prices for various underlying assets have been highly volatile. Such volatility may be expected in the future. Fluctuations in any such rates or prices that have occurred in the past are not necessarily indicative, however, of fluctuations that may occur during the term of any indexed note.

In considering whether to purchase indexed notes, you should be aware that the calculation of amounts payable on indexed notes may involve reference to:

- an index determined by an affiliate of Citigroup; or

- prices that are published solely by third parties or entities which are not regulated by the laws of the United States.

The risk of loss as a result of linking principal or interest payments on indexed notes to an index and to the underlying assets can be substantial. You should consult your own financial and legal advisors as to the risks of an investment in indexed notes.

You should only rely on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, the prospectus and any pricing supplement. Citigroup has not, and the agent has not, authorized any other person to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. Citigroup is not, and the agent is not, making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus supplement and the prospectus, as well as information Citigroup previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and incorporated by reference, is accurate as of the date of the applicable document. Citigroup's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date.

IMPORTANT CURRENCY INFORMATION

Purchasers are required to pay for each note in a currency specified by Citigroup for such note. If requested by a prospective purchaser of a note having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars, the agent may at its discretion arrange for the exchange of U.S. dollars into such specified currency to enable the purchaser to pay for such note. Each such exchange will be made by the agent. The terms, conditions, limitations and charges that the agent may from time to time establish in accordance with its regular foreign exchange practice shall control the exchange. The purchaser must pay all costs of exchange.

References in this prospectus supplement to "U.S. dollars," "U.S.$," "dollar" or "$" are to the lawful currency of the United States.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

The following description of the particular terms of the Medium-Term Senior Notes, Series H and Medium-Term Subordinated Notes, Series H supplements the description of the general terms and provisions of the debt securities set forth in the prospectus. If any specific information regarding the notes in this prospectus supplement is inconsistent with the more general terms of the debt securities described in the prospectus, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement.

The pricing supplement for each offering of notes will contain the specific information and terms for that offering. If any information in the pricing supplement, including any changes in the method of calculating interest on any note, is inconsistent with this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in the pricing supplement. The pricing supplement may also add, update or change information contained in the prospectus and this prospectus supplement. It is important for you to consider the information contained in the prospectus, this prospectus supplement and the pricing supplement in making your investment decision.

GENERAL

Introduction. The senior notes are a series of senior debt securities issued under Citigroup's senior debt indenture. The subordinated notes are a series of subordinated debt securities issued under Citigroup's subordinated debt indenture. At the date of this prospectus supplement, the notes offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement are limited to an aggregate initial public offering price or purchase price of up to $ or its equivalent in one or more foreign currencies. This amount is subject to reduction as a result of the sale of other securities under the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus form a part, or under a registration statement to which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus also relate.

The amount of notes sold of either series will reduce the amount of notes of the other series that may be sold. Citigroup reserves the right to withdraw, cancel or modify the offer made by this prospectus supplement without notice. The aggregate amount of notes may be increased from time to time to such larger amount as may be authorized by Citigroup.

The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public offering price or purchase price of a note having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars will be determined on the basis of the market exchange rate. Unless otherwise specified in the pricing supplement, this market exchange rate will be the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for such specified currency on the applicable issue date. Such determination will be made by Citigroup or its agent, as the exchange rate agent for the applicable series of notes.

Ranking. The senior notes will constitute part of the senior indebtedness of Citigroup and will rank on an equal basis with all other unsecured debt of Citigroup other than subordinated debt. The subordinated notes will be subordinate and junior in the right of payment, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the subordinated debt indenture, to all senior indebtedness of Citigroup. See "Description of Debt Securities -- Subordinated Debt" in the prospectus.

If there were an event of default with respect to any senior indebtedness, the trustee or holders of 25% of the principal amount of senior debt securities outstanding in a series could demand that the principal be repaid immediately. If there were an event of default with respect to any subordinated indebtedness involving certain events of insolvency or bankruptcy, the trustee or holders of 25% of the principal amount of subordinated debt securities outstanding in a series could demand that the principal be paid immediately. In the absence of certain events of insolvency or bankruptcy, failure to pay amounts due with respect to subordinated indebtedness would not permit the trustee or such holders to demand that the principal of such subordinated debt securities be paid immediately. See "Description of Debt Securities -- Events of Default and Defaults" in the prospectus.

On a consolidated basis, the aggregate principal amount of senior indebtedness of Citigroup outstanding as of March 31, 2004 was approximately $263.0 billion. This senior indebtedness consisted of

S-7

approximately $196.1 billion of term debt, approximately $36.0 billion of commercial paper and approximately $30.9 billion of other short-term borrowings.

Forms of Notes. The notes will be issued in fully registered form only, without coupons. Each note will be issued initially as a book-entry note, which will be a global security registered in the name of a nominee of the Depository Trust Company, or DTC, as depositary, or such other depositary named in the pricing supplement. Alternatively, if specified in the applicable pricing supplement, each note will be issued initially as a certificated note, which will be a certificate issued in temporary or definitive form. Except as set forth in the prospectus under "Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement," book-entry notes will not be issuable as certificated notes. See "Book-Entry System" below.

Denominations. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the authorized denominations of notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be $1,000 and any larger amount that is a whole multiple of $1,000. The authorized denominations of notes that have a specified currency other than U.S. dollars will be the approximate equivalents in the specified currency.

Maturity. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, each note will mature on a stated maturity date. Such stated maturity date will be a business day nine months or more from its date of issue, as selected by the purchaser and agreed to by Citigroup. If so specified in the pricing supplement, the stated maturity date may be extended at the option of Citigroup, and each note may also be redeemed at the option of Citigroup, or repaid at the option of the holder, prior to its stated maturity. Each note that has a specified currency of pounds sterling will mature in compliance with the regulations the Bank of England may promulgate from time to time.

Additional Information. The pricing supplement relating to a note will describe the following terms:

- the specified currency for such note;

- whether such note

(1) is a fixed rate note;

(2) is a floating rate note;

(3) is an amortizing note, meaning that a portion or all the principal amount is payable prior to stated maturity in accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or based on an index; and/or

(4) is an indexed note on which payments of interest or principal may be linked to the price of one or more securities, currencies, intangibles, articles, commodities or goods or any other financial, economic or other measure or instrument, including the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or circumstance;

- whether such note is a note issued originally at a discount;

- if such note is an amortizing note, the terms for repayment prior to stated maturity;

- if such note is an indexed note, in the case of an indexed rate note, the manner in which the amount of any interest payment will be determined or, in the case of an indexed principal note, its face amount and the manner in which the principal amount payable at stated maturity will be determined;

- whether such note may have an optional extension beyond its stated maturity as described under "Extension of Maturity" below;

- whether such note will be represented by a global security or a certificate issued in definitive form;

- any special United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of a particular issuance of notes;

- whether such note is a renewable note, and, if so, its specific terms;

- the use of proceeds, if materially different than that disclosed in the accompanying prospectus; and

- any other terms of such note provided in the accompanying prospectus to be set forth in a pricing supplement or that are otherwise consistent with the provisions of the indenture under which such note will be issued.

As used in this prospectus supplement, business day means:

- for any note, any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in New York City, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close;

- for LIBOR notes only, a London business day, which shall be any day on which dealings in deposits in the specified currency are transacted in the London interbank market;

- for any determination by the exchange rate agent of an exchange rate pursuant to notes having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars, an exchange rate business day, which shall be any day on which banking institutions and foreign exchange markets settle payments in New York City and London;

- for notes having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars only, other than notes denominated in euros, any day that, in the principal financial center (as defined below) of the country of the specified currency, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law to close; and

- for EURIBOR notes and notes denominated in euros, a TARGET business day, which shall be any day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer System is open.

As used above, a principal financial center means the capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, for Australian dollars, Canadian dollars and Swiss francs, the principal financial center will be Sydney, Toronto and Zurich, respectively.

S-9

PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

Citigroup will pay the principal of, and any premium and interest on, each note in the specified currency for such note. If the specified currency for a note is other than U.S. dollars, Citigroup will, unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, arrange to convert all payments in respect of such note into U.S. dollars in the manner described in the following paragraph. The holder of a note having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars may, if stated in the applicable pricing supplement and such note, elect to receive all payments on such note in the specified currency by delivering a written notice to the paying agent for such note not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date, except under the circumstances described under "Risk Factors -- The Unavailability of Currencies Could Result in a Substantial Loss to You" above. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by a written notice to such paying agent that is received not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. If an event of default has occurred or Citigroup has given notice of redemption of a note, no such change of election may be made.

Unless otherwise specified in the pricing supplement, the amount of any U.S. dollar payment on a note having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars will be determined by the exchange rate agent:

- based on the specified currency/U.S. dollar exchange rate prevailing at 11:00 a.m., London time, on the second exchange rate business day prior to the applicable payment date, or

- if an exchange rate bid quotation is not so available, the exchange rate agent will obtain a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in London selected by the exchange rate agent after consultation with Citigroup.

The exchange rate agent will also determine prior to settlement the aggregate amount of the specified currency payable on a payment date for all notes denominated in such specified currency. All currency exchange costs will be deducted from payments to the holders of such notes. If no such bid quotations are available, the payments will be made in the specified currency, unless the specified currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or due to other circumstances beyond Citigroup's control. In that case, such payments will be made as described under "Risk Factors -- The Unavailability of Currencies Could Result in a Substantial Loss to You" above.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, U.S. dollar payments of interest on notes, other than interest payable at stated maturity, will be made, except as provided below, by check mailed to the registered holders of such notes. In the case of global securities representing book-entry notes, such payments of interest on notes will be made to a nominee of the depositary.

A holder of at least $10,000,000, or its equivalent in a specified currency other than U.S. dollars, in aggregate principal amount of notes of like tenor and term, will be entitled to receive such U.S. dollar payments by wire transfer of immediately available funds. However, such a holder is entitled to receive such payments only if the paying agent receives written appropriate wire transfer instructions for such notes not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable interest payment date. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, principal and any premium and interest payable at the stated maturity of a note will be paid in immediately available funds upon surrender of such note at the office of the paying agent for such note in New York City.

Unless otherwise specified in this prospectus supplement or the applicable pricing supplement, any payment required to be made on a note on a date, including the stated maturity date, that is not a business day for such note need not be made on such date. A payment may be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on such date. No additional interest will accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, if the principal of any original issue discount note, or OID note, other than an indexed note, is declared to be due and payable immediately as a result of the acceleration of stated maturity, the amount of principal due and payable relating to such note will be limited to the aggregate principal amount of such note multiplied by the sum of (1) its issue

S-10

price, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount, plus (2) the original issue discount amortized from the date of issue to the date of declaration. Amortization will be calculated using the interest method, computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date of declaration.

FIXED RATE NOTES

Each fixed rate note will bear interest from its original issue date, or from the last interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, at the rate per annum stated in the applicable pricing supplement until its principal amount is paid or made available for payment. However, as described below under "Subsequent Interest Periods" and "Extension of Maturity," or as otherwise may be described in the applicable pricing supplement, the rate of interest payable on fixed rate notes may be adjusted from time to time.

Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable pricing supplement, interest on each fixed rate note will be payable semiannually in arrears on such dates as set forth in the applicable pricing supplement, with each such day being an interest payment date, and at stated maturity. Unless "accrue to pay" is specified in the applicable pricing supplement or unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, if an interest payment date for any fixed rate note would otherwise be a day that is not a business day, any payment required to be made on such note on such date, including the stated maturity date, may be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on such date. No additional interest will accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

If in connection with any fixed rate note, "accrue to pay" is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, and any interest payment date for such fixed rate note would otherwise be a day that is not a business day, such interest payment date will be postponed to the next succeeding business day. Any payment of interest on such interest payment date will include interest accrued through the day before such interest payment date. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, interest on fixed rate notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months or, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

FLOATING RATE NOTES

The initial interest period is the period from the original issue date to, but not including, the first interest reset date. Each floating rate note will bear interest at the initial interest rate set forth, or otherwise described, in the applicable pricing supplement. The interest reset period is the period from each interest reset date to, but not including, the following interest reset date. The initial interest period and any interest reset period is an interest period. The interest rate for each floating rate note will be determined based on an interest rate basis, the base rate, plus or minus any spread, or multiplied by any spread multiplier. A basis point, or bp, equals one-hundredth of a percentage point. The spread is the number of basis points that may be specified in the applicable pricing supplement as applicable to such note. The spread multiplier is the percentage that may be specified in the applicable pricing supplement as applicable to such note. As described below under "Subsequent Interest Periods" and "Extension of Maturity," or as may otherwise be specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the spread or spread multiplier on floating rate notes may be adjusted from time to time.

The applicable pricing supplement will designate one of the following base rates as applicable to a floating rate note:

- the CD Rate;

- the Commercial Paper Rate;

- the Federal Funds Rate;

- LIBOR;

- the Treasury Rate;

- the Prime Rate;

S-11

- the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate;

- EURIBOR; or

- such other base rate as is set forth in the applicable pricing supplement and in such note.

The following terms are used in describing the various base rates.

The "index maturity" is the period of maturity of the instrument or obligation from which the base rate is calculated.

"H.15(519)" means the publication entitled "Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates," or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

"H.15 Daily Update" means the daily update of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.bog.frb.fed.us/releases/H15/update or any successor site or publication.

"Calculation date" means the date on which the calculation agent is to calculate the interest rate which will be the earlier of (1) the tenth calendar day after the related rate determination date, or if any such day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day or (2) the business day preceding the applicable interest payment date or the stated maturity.

As specified in the applicable pricing supplement, a floating rate note may also have either or both of the following, which will be expressed as a rate per annum on a simple interest basis:

- maximum interest rate, which will be a maximum limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period; and/or

- minimum interest rate, which will be a minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period.

In addition to any maximum interest rate that may be applicable to any floating rate note, the interest rate on a floating rate note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. The notes will be governed by the law of New York State. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, the maximum rate of interest under provisions of the New York penal law, with a few exceptions, is 25% per annum on a simple interest basis. Such maximum rate of interest only applies to obligations that are less than $2,500,000.

Citigroup will appoint and enter into agreements with calculation agents to calculate interest rates on floating rate notes. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, Citibank, N.A. will be the calculation agent for each floating rate note. All determinations of interest by a calculation agent will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holders of the floating rate notes.

The interest rate on each floating rate note will be reset on an interest reset date, which means that the interest rate is reset daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the interest reset dates will be as follows:

- in the case of floating rate notes that reset daily, each business day;

- in the case of floating rate notes that reset weekly, other than Treasury Rate notes, the Wednesday of each week;

- in the case of Treasury Rate notes that reset weekly and except as provided below under "Treasury Rate Notes," the Tuesday of each week;

- in the case of floating rate notes that reset monthly, other than Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes, the third Wednesday of each month;

S-12

- in the case of floating rate notes that are Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes, the first calendar day of each month;

- in the case of floating rate notes that reset quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year;

- in the case of floating rate notes that reset semiannually, the third Wednesday of each of two months of each year specified in the applicable pricing supplement; and

- in the case of floating rate notes that reset annually, the third Wednesday of one month of each year specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

If an interest reset date for any floating rate note would fall on a day that is not a business day, such interest reset date will be postponed to the next succeeding business day. In the case of a LIBOR note or a EURIBOR note, if postponement to the next business day would cause the interest reset date to be in the next succeeding calendar month, the interest reset date will instead be the immediately preceding business day. If an auction of direct obligations of United States Treasury bills falls on a day that is an interest reset date for Treasury Rate notes, the interest reset date will be the succeeding business day.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement and except as set forth below, the rate of interest that goes into effect on any interest reset date will be determined on a rate determination date preceding such interest reset date, as further described below.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, interest payable on floating rate notes will be the interest accrued from and including the original issue date or the last date to which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding the applicable interest payment date.

Accrued interest on a floating rate note with more than one interest reset date will be calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the note by an accrued interest factor. If the floating rate note is an indexed principal note, the face amount of the note will be multiplied by the accrued interest factor. The accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the interest factor for each such day will be computed by dividing the interest rate in effect on such day by 360, in the case of CD Rate notes, Commercial Paper Rate notes, Federal Funds Rate notes, LIBOR notes, Prime Rate notes, Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes and EURIBOR notes. In the case of Treasury Rate notes, the interest factor for each such day will be computed by dividing such interest rate by the actual number of days in the year. The interest factor will be expressed as a decimal calculated to seven decimal places without rounding. For purposes of making the foregoing calculation, the interest rate in effect on any interest reset date will be the applicable rate as reset on such date.

For all other floating rate notes, accrued interest will be calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the note by the interest rate in effect during the period for which accrued interest is being calculated. That product is then multiplied by the quotient obtained by dividing the number of days in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated by 360, in the case of CD Rate notes, Commercial Paper Rate notes, Federal Funds Rate notes, LIBOR notes, Prime Rate notes, Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes and EURIBOR notes. In the case of Treasury Rate notes, such product is multiplied by the quotient obtained by dividing the number of days in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated by the actual number of days in the year.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, all percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a floating rate note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward. All currency amounts used in, or resulting from, such calculation on floating rate notes will be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a unit. For purposes of such rounding, .005 of a unit shall be rounded upward.

S-13

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable pricing supplement and except as provided below, interest will be payable as follows:

- In the case of floating rate notes that reset daily, weekly or monthly, other than Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

- In the case of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes, interest will be payable on the first calendar day of each March, June, September and December.

- In the case of floating rate notes that reset quarterly, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of March, June, September, and December of each year.

- In the case of floating rate notes that reset semiannually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each of two months of each year specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

- In the case of floating rate notes that reset annually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of one month of each year specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

In each of these cases, interest will also be payable at maturity.

If an interest payment date for any floating rate note would fall on a day that is not a business day, such interest payment date will be postponed to the next succeeding business day. In the case of a LIBOR note or a EURIBOR note, if postponement to the next business day would cause the interest payment date to be in the next succeeding calendar month, the interest payment date will instead be the immediately preceding business day.

If for any floating rate note, the applicable pricing supplement provides that the note does not accrue to pay, and if an interest payment date for such floating rate note would otherwise be a day that is not a business day, such interest payment date will not be postponed. Any payment required to be made on such floating rate note, however, may be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on the due date. No additional interest will accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

Upon the request of the holder of any floating rate note, the calculation agent for such note will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next interest reset date for such floating rate note.

CD Rate Notes. Each CD Rate note will bear interest for each interest reset period at an interest rate equal to the CD Rate and any spread or spread multiplier specified in such note and in the applicable pricing supplement.

The calculation agent will determine the CD Rate on each CD Rate determination date. The CD Rate determination date is the second business day prior to the interest reset date for each interest reset period for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit having the index maturity designated in the applicable pricing supplement as published in H.15(519) under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)."

The following procedures will be followed if the CD Rate cannot be determined as described above.

- If the above rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the calculation date pertaining to the CD Rate determination date, then the CD Rate for such interest reset period will be the rate on that date for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of the index maturity designated in the applicable pricing supplement as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)."

- If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the calculation date, the above rate is not yet published, then the CD Rate will be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on that CD Rate determination date of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in New York City selected by the calculation agent for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money center banks of the highest credit standing, in the market for negotiable U.S. certificates of deposit, with a

S-14

remaining maturity closest to the index maturity designated in the pricing supplement in a denomination of $5,000,000.

- If the dealers selected by the calculation agent, however, are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in the preceding sentence, the CD Rate for such interest reset period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately preceding interest reset period. If there was no such interest reset period, the CD Rate will be the initial interest rate.

CD Rate notes, like other notes, are not deposit obligations of a bank and are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Commercial Paper Rate Notes. Each Commercial Paper Rate note will bear interest for each interest reset period at an interest rate equal to the Commercial Paper Rate and any spread or spread multiplier, specified in such note and the applicable pricing supplement.

The calculation agent will determine the Commercial Paper Rate on each Commercial Paper Rate determination date. The Commercial Paper Rate determination date is the business day immediately preceding the interest reset date for each interest reset period. The Commercial Paper Rate will be the money market yield on that date of the rate for commercial paper having the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement, as such rate will be published in H.15(519) under the heading "Commercial Paper -- Nonfinancial."

The following procedures will be followed if the Commercial Paper Rate cannot be determined as described above.

- If such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the calculation date pertaining to the Commercial Paper Rate determination date, then the Commercial Paper Rate for such interest reset period will be the money market yield on that date of the rate for commercial paper of the specified index maturity as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "Commercial Paper -- Nonfinancial."

- If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such calculation date, the above rate is not yet published, then the Commercial Paper Rate for such interest reset period will be the money market yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that date, of three leading dealers of U.S. dollar commercial paper in New York City selected by the calculation agent for such Commercial Paper Rate note for commercial paper of the specified index maturity placed for an industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a nationally recognized rating agency.

- If the dealers selected by such calculation agent, however, are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in the preceding sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate for such interest reset period will be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the immediately preceding interest reset period. If there was no such interest reset period, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the initial interest rate.

Money market yield will be calculated as follows:

                              D X 360
money market yield   =     -------------  X 100
                           360 - (D X M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, and "M" refers to the actual number of days in the applicable interest reset period.

Federal Funds Rate Notes. Each Federal Funds Rate note will bear interest for each interest reset period at an interest rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate and any spread or spread multiplier specified in such note and the applicable pricing supplement.

The calculation agent will determine the Federal Funds Rate on each Federal Funds Rate determination date. The Federal Funds Rate determination date is the business day immediately preceding the interest reset date for such interest reset period. The Federal Funds Rate will be the rate for U.S. dollar federal funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)" and

S-15

displayed on Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on Page 120 (or any other page as may replace the specified Page on that service).

The following procedures will be followed if the Federal Funds Rate cannot be determined as described above.

- If the above rate does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 120 or is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the calculation date pertaining to the Federal Funds Rate determination date, the Federal Funds Rate for such interest reset period will be the rate on that date as published in the H.15 Daily Update under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)," or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate.

- If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such calculation date the above rate is not yet published, then the Federal Funds Rate for such interest reset period will be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds arranged by three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the calculation agent prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on that Federal Funds Rate determination date.

- If the brokers so selected by the calculation agent are not quoting as mentioned above, the Federal Funds Rate for such interest reset period will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the particular Federal Funds Rate determination date. If there was no such Federal Funds Rate in effect for the interest reset period, the Federal Funds Rate will be the initial interest rate.

LIBOR Notes. Each LIBOR note will bear interest for each interest reset period at an interest rate equal to LIBOR and any spread or spread multiplier specified in such note and the applicable pricing supplement.

The calculation agent will determine LIBOR on each LIBOR determination date. The LIBOR determination date is the second London business day prior to the interest reset date for each interest reset period.

On a LIBOR determination date, the calculation agent will determine LIBOR for each interest reset period as follows.

The calculation agent will determine the offered rates for deposits in the specified currency for the period of the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement, commencing on such interest reset date, which appears on the "designated LIBOR page" at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that date.

- If "LIBOR Moneyline Telerate" is designated in the applicable pricing supplement, or if neither "LIBOR Reuters" nor "LIBOR Moneyline Telerate" is specified in the applicable pricing supplement as the method for calculating LIBOR, "designated LIBOR page" means the display designated as page "3750" on the Moneyline Telerate Service, and LIBOR will be the relevant offered rate determined by the calculation agent. If page "3750" on the Telerate Service is replaced by another page, or if the Moneyline Telerate Service is replaced by a successor service, then "LIBOR Telerate" means the replacement page or service selected to display the London interbank offered rates of major banks.

- If "LIBOR Reuters" is designated in the applicable pricing supplement, "designated LIBOR page" means the display designated as page "LIBO" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service, and LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of the offered rates, calculated by the calculation agent, or the offered rate, if the designated LIBOR page by its terms provides only for a single rate. If the LIBO page on such service is replaced by another page, or if the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service is replaced by a successor service, then "LIBOR Reuters" means the replacement page or service selected to display the London interbank offered rates of major banks.

If LIBOR cannot be determined on a LIBOR determination date as described above, then the calculation agent will determine LIBOR as follows.

S-16

- The calculation agent will select four major banks in the London interbank market.

- The calculation agent will request that the principal London offices of those four selected banks provide their offered quotations to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR determination date. These quotations shall be for deposits in the specified currency for the period of the specified index maturity, commencing on such interest reset date. Offered quotations must be based on a principal amount equal to at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent in the specified currency that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time.

(1) If two or more quotations are provided, LIBOR for such interest reset period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.

(2) If fewer than two quotations are provided, the calculation agent will select three major banks in New York City and follow the steps in the two bullet points below.

- The calculation agent will then determine LIBOR for such interest reset period as the arithmetic mean of rates quoted by those three major banks in New York City to leading European banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such LIBOR determination date. The rates quoted will be for loans in the specified currency for the period of the specified index maturity commencing on the interest reset date. Rates quoted must be based on a principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent in the specified currency that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time.

- If fewer than three New York City banks selected by the calculation agent are quoting rates, LIBOR for such interest reset period will be the same as for the immediately preceding interest reset period. If there was no such interest reset period, the LIBOR Rate will be the initial interest rate.

Treasury Rate Notes. Each Treasury Rate note will bear interest for each interest reset period at an interest rate equal to the Treasury Rate and any spread or spread multiplier, specified in such note and the applicable pricing supplement.

Treasury Rate Notes other than Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Notes

Unless "Constant Maturity" is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the Treasury Rate for each interest reset period will be the rate for the auction held on the Treasury Rate determination date for such interest reset period of treasury securities as such rate appears on Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on page 56 (or any other page as may replace the page on that service) or on page 57 (or any other page as may replace that page on that service) under the heading "INVESTMENT RATE." Treasury securities are direct obligations of the United States that have the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

If the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as described above, the following procedures will be followed in the order set forth below.

(1) If the Treasury Rate referred to above is not published prior to 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield (as defined below) of the rate for the applicable treasury securities as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High."

(2) If the rate referred to in clause (1) is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the auction rate of the applicable treasury securities as announced by the United States Department of the Treasury.

(3) If the rate referred to in clause (2) is not so announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held, then the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield

S-17

of the rate on the Treasury Rate determination date of the applicable treasury securities as published in H.15(519) under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market."

(4) If the rate referred to in clause (3) is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Treasury Rate will be the rate on the Treasury Rate determination date of the applicable treasury securities as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market."

(5) If the rate referred to in clause (4) is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Treasury Rate will be the rate on the Treasury Rate determination date calculated by the calculation agent as the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Treasury Rate determination date, of three primary United States government securities dealers selected by the calculation agent, for the issue of treasury securities with a remaining maturity closest to the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

(6) If the dealers selected by the calculation agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in (5) above, then the Treasury Rate for such interest reset period will be the same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding interest reset period. If there was no preceding interest reset period, the Treasury Rate will be the initial interest rate.

The Treasury Rate determination date for each interest reset period will be the day of the week in which the interest reset date for such interest reset period falls on which treasury securities would normally be auctioned.

Treasury securities are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week unless that day is a legal holiday. In that case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate determination date pertaining to the interest reset period commencing in the next succeeding week. If an auction date falls on any day that would otherwise be an interest reset date for a Treasury Rate note, then that interest reset date will instead be the business day immediately following the auction date.

Bond Equivalent: Yield will be calculated as follows:

                                   D X N
Bond Equivalent Yield    =     -------------  X 100
                               360 - (D X M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for treasury securities quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, "N" refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and "M" refers to the actual number of days in the applicable interest reset period.

Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Notes

If "Constant Maturity" is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the Treasury Rate for each interest reset period will be the rate displayed on the designated CMT Moneyline Telerate page under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities" under the column for the designated CMT maturity index in the following manner.

- If the designated CMT Moneyline Telerate page is 7051, the Treasury Rate will be the rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date.

- If the rate referred to above does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 7051, then the Treasury Rate will be the treasury constant maturity rate for the designated CMT maturity index as published in the relevant H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities."

S-18

- If the rate referred to above does not so appear in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate will be the constant treasury maturity rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date for the designated CMT maturity index as may then be published by either the Federal Reserve System Board of Governors or the United States Department of the Treasury that the calculation agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would have otherwise been published in H.15(519).

- If the designated CMT Moneyline Telerate page is 7052, the Treasury Rate will be the average for the week or for the month, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date occurs.

- If the rate referred to above does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 7052, then the Treasury Rate will be the one-week or one-month, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement, average of the treasury constant maturity rate for the designated CMT maturity index for the week or month as applicable, preceding the Constant Maturity Treasury determination date as published in the relevant H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities."

- If the rate referred to above does not so appear in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate will be the one-week or one-month, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement, average of the constant treasury maturity rate for the designated CMT maturity index as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date falls.

If the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as indicated above, the following procedures will be followed in the order set forth below:

(1) If the above information, as applicable, is not so published, then the calculation agent will calculate the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date as follows:

- The Treasury Rate will be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date of three leading U.S. government securities dealers in New York City, for Treasury notes. The Treasury notes will be United States treasury securities, with an original maturity of approximately the designated CMT maturity index and a remaining term to maturity of not less than such designated CMT maturity index minus one year and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in that market at that time.

- The three government securities dealers referenced above will be identified from five such dealers who are selected by the calculation agent, one of which may be the agent, by eliminating the dealers with the highest and lowest quotations, or in the event of equality, one of the highest and/or lowest quotation, as the case may require.

(2) If three or four, but not five, of such dealers provide quotations as described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes will be eliminated.

(3) If the calculation agent is unable to obtain three such Treasury note quotations as described in (1) above, the Treasury Rate on such Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date will be calculated by the calculation agent as follows.

- The rate will be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date reported, according to their written records, by three leading U.S.

S-19

government securities dealers in New York City, for Treasury notes with an original maturity of the number of years that is the next highest to the designated CMT maturity index and a remaining maturity closest to the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement, and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time.

- If two Treasury notes with an original maturity, as described above, have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the designated CMT maturity index, the calculation agent will obtain quotations for the Treasury note with the shorter remaining term to maturity and will use such quotations to calculate the Treasury Rate as set forth above.

- The three government securities dealers referenced above will be identified from five such dealers who are selected by the calculation agent, one of which may be the agent, by eliminating the dealers with the highest and lowest quotations, or in the event of equality, one of the highest and/or lowest quotation, as the case may require.

(4) If three or four, but not five, of such dealers provide quotations as described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the offer prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes will be eliminated.

(5) If fewer than three dealers selected by the calculation agent provide quotations as described in (3) above, the Treasury Rate determined as of the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date will be the Treasury Rate in effect on such Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date.

"Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate page" means the display on the Telerate Service, or any successor service on the page specified in the applicable pricing supplement, or any other page as may replace such page on that service, or any successor service, for the purpose of displaying Treasury Constant Maturities as reported in H.15(519). If no such page is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the designated CMT Telerate page will be 7052, for the most recent week.

"Designated CMT maturity index" means the original period to maturity of the U.S. Treasury securities, either one, two, three, five, seven, ten, twenty or thirty years, specified in the applicable pricing supplement for which the Treasury Rate will be calculated. If no such maturity is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the designated CMT maturity index will be two years.

The "Constant Maturity Treasury Rate determination date" will be the second business day prior to the interest reset date for the applicable interest reset period.

The CMT Rate for a Treasury security maturity as published as of any business day is intended to be indicative of the yield of a U.S. Treasury security having as of such business day a remaining term to maturity equivalent to such maturity. The CMT Rate as of any business day is based upon an interpolation by the U.S. Treasury of the daily yield curve of outstanding Treasury securities. This yield curve, which relates the yield on a security to its time to maturity, is based on the over-the-counter market bid yields on actively traded Treasury securities. Such yields are calculated from composites of quotations reported by leading U.S. government securities dealers, which may include one or more of the calculation agents or other affiliates of Citigroup. Certain constant maturity yield values are read from the yield curve. Such interpolation from the yield curve provides a theoretical yield for a Treasury security having ten years to maturity, for example, even if no outstanding Treasury security has as of such date exactly ten years remaining to maturity.

Prime Rate Notes. Prime Rate notes will bear interest at a rate equal to the Prime Rate and any spread or spread multiplier specified in the Prime Rate notes and the applicable pricing supplement.

The calculation agent will determine the Prime Rate for each interest reset period on each Prime Rate determination date. The Prime Rate determination date is the second business day prior to the interest reset date for each interest reset period. The Prime Rate will be the rate made available and subsequently published on that date in H.15(519) under the heading "Bank Prime Loan."

S-20

The following procedures will be followed if the Prime Rate cannot be determined as described above.

- If the rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Prime Rate will be the rate on the Prime Rate determination date that is published in the H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "Bank Prime Loan."

- If the rate referred to above is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Prime Rate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest that appear on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 page as such bank's prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Prime Rate determination date.

- If fewer than four such rates appear on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 page, then the calculation agent will select three major banks in New York City. The Prime Rate will be the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates quoted by those three banks on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year as of the close of business on the Prime Rate determination date.

- If the banks that the calculation agent selects do not provide quotations as described above, then the Prime Rate will remain the same as the Prime Rate in effect on the Prime Rate determination date.

"Reuters Screen USPRIME1 page" means the display designated as page "USPRIME1" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service, or any successor service or page, for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks.

Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes. Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes will bear interest at the interest rates, calculated based on the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate and any spread and/or spread multiplier, specified in the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate notes and the applicable pricing supplement.

The calculation agent will determine the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate on each Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date. The Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date is the last working day of the month immediately prior to each interest reset date for each interest reset period on which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco publishes the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index.

The Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate will be the rate equal to the monthly weighted average cost of funds for the calendar month preceding such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date as set forth under the caption "Eleventh District" on Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on page 7058. Such page will be deemed to include any successor page, determined by the calculation agent, as of 11:00 A.M., San Francisco time, on the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date.

The following procedures will be followed if the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate cannot be determined as described above.

- If the rate does not appear on Telerate page 7058 on any related Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date will be the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Index.

- If the FHLB of San Francisco fails to announce the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Index on or prior to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date for the calendar month immediately preceding that date, then the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for such date will be the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate in effect on such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate determination date.

The "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Index" will be the monthly weighted average cost of funds paid by member institutions of the Eleventh Federal Home Loan Bank District that the FHLB of

S-21

San Francisco most recently announced as the cost of funds for the calendar month preceding the date of such announcement.

EURIBOR Notes. Each EURIBOR note will bear interest for each interest reset period at an interest rate equal to EURIBOR and any spread or spread multiplier specified in such note and the applicable pricing supplement.

The calculation agent will determine EURIBOR on each EURIBOR determination date. The EURIBOR determination date is the second TARGET business day prior to the interest reset date for each interest reset period.

On a EURIBOR determination date, the calculation agent will determine EURIBOR for each interest reset period as follows.

The calculation agent will determine the offered rates for deposits in euros for the period of the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement, commencing on such interest reset date, which appears on page 248 on the Telerate Service or any successor service or any page that may replace page 248 on that service which is commonly referred to as "Telerate Page 248" as of 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on that date.

If EURIBOR cannot be determined on a EURIBOR determination date as described above, then the calculation agent will determine EURIBOR as follows.

- The calculation agent will select four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market.

- The calculation agent will request that the principal Euro-zone offices of those four selected banks provide their offered quotations to prime banks in the Euro-zone interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the EURIBOR determination date. These quotations shall be for deposits in euros for the period of the specified index maturity, commencing on such interest reset date. Offered quotations must be based on a principal amount equal to at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent in euros that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time.

(1) If two or more quotations are provided, EURIBOR for such interest reset period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.

(2) If fewer than two quotations are provided, the calculation agent will select four major banks in the Euro-zone and follow the steps in the two bullet points below.

- The calculation agent will then determine EURIBOR for such interest reset period as the arithmetic mean of rates quoted by those four major banks in the Euro-zone to leading European banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on such EURIBOR determination date. The rates quoted will be for loans in euros, for the period of the specified index maturity, commencing on the interest reset date. Rates quoted must be based on a principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent in euros that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time.

- If the banks so selected by the calculation agent are not quoting rates as described above, EURIBOR for such interest reset period will be the same as for the immediately preceding interest reset period. If there was no such interest reset period, EURIBOR will be the initial interest rate.

"Euro-zone" means the region comprised of member states of the European Union that adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union.

S-22

Inverse Floating Rate Notes. Any floating rate note may be designated in the applicable pricing supplement as an inverse floating rate note. In such an event, unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the interest rate on such floating rate note will be equal to:

- in the case of the period, if any, commencing on the issue date, or the date on which such note otherwise begins to accrue interest if different from the issue date, up to the first interest reset date, a fixed rate of interest established by Citigroup as described in the applicable pricing supplement; and

- in the case of each period commencing on an interest reset date, a fixed rate of interest specified in the pricing supplement minus the interest rate determined based on the base rate as adjusted by any spread and/or spread multiplier.

However, on any inverse floating rate note, the interest rate will not be less than zero.

Floating/Fixed Rate Notes. The applicable pricing supplement may provide that a note will be a floating rate note for a specified portion of its term and a fixed rate note for the remainder of its term. In such an event, the interest rate on such note will be determined as if it were a floating rate note and a fixed rate note for each such respective period, all as specified in such applicable pricing supplement.

SUBSEQUENT INTEREST PERIODS

The pricing supplement relating to each note will indicate whether Citigroup has the option to reset the interest rate, or the spread, spread multiplier, or method of calculation, as the case may be, for such note. If Citigroup has the option to reset, the pricing supplement will also indicate the optional reset date or dates on which such interest rate or such spread, spread multiplier, or method of calculation, as the case may be, may be reset.

Citigroup shall notify the trustee whether or not it intends to exercise such option relating to such note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to an optional reset date for such note. Not later than 40 days prior to such optional reset date, the trustee will mail to the holder of such note a reset notice first class, postage prepaid, indicating whether Citigroup has elected to reset the interest rate, or the spread, spread multiplier or method of calculation, as the case may be.

If Citigroup elects to reset the interest rate, or the spread, spread multiplier or method of calculation, as the case may be, the trustee will mail to the holder in a manner described above a notice indicating such new interest rate or such new spread, spread multiplier, or method of calculation, as the case may be. The notice will also indicate any provisions for redemption during the subsequent interest period. The subsequent interest period is the period from such optional reset date to the next optional reset date or, if there is no such next optional reset date, to the stated maturity of such note, including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during such subsequent interest period.

Upon the transmittal by the trustee of a reset notice to the holder of a note, such new interest rate or such new spread, spread multiplier, and/or method of calculation as the case may be, will take effect automatically. Except as modified by the reset notice and as described below, such note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such reset notice.

Despite the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to an optional reset date for a note, Citigroup may, at its option, revoke the interest rate, or the spread or spread multiplier, provided for in the reset notice relating to such optional reset date and establish a higher interest rate, or a higher spread or spread multiplier, as applicable, for the subsequent interest period commencing on such optional reset date.

Citigroup can make such revocations by causing the trustee for such note to mail notice of such higher interest rate or higher spread or spread multiplier, as the case may be, first class, postage prepaid, to the holder of such note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All notes for which the interest rate or spread or spread multiplier is reset on an optional reset date will bear such higher interest rate, or higher spread or spread multiplier, as the case may be, whether or not tendered for repayment.

S-23

The holder of a note will have the option to elect repayment of such note by Citigroup on each optional reset date at a price equal to the principal amount of such note plus interest accrued to such optional reset date. In order for a note to be repaid on an optional reset date, the holder of such note must follow the procedures set forth below under "Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase" for optional repayment. However, the period for delivery of such note or notification to the trustee for such note will be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such optional reset date. Further, a holder who has tendered a note for repayment pursuant to a reset notice may, by written notice to the trustee for such note, revoke any such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day prior to such optional reset date.

AMORTIZING NOTES

Citigroup may from time to time offer amortizing notes on which a portion or all the principal amount is payable prior to stated maturity

- in accordance with a schedule;

- by application of a formula; or

- based on an index.

Further information concerning additional terms and conditions of any amortizing notes, including terms for repayment of such notes, will be set forth in the applicable pricing supplement.

INDEXED NOTES

Citigroup may from time to time offer indexed notes on which some or all interest payments, in the case of an indexed rate note, and/or the principal amount payable at stated maturity or earlier redemption or retirement, in the case of an indexed principal note, is determined based on:

- the principal amount of such notes or, in the case of an indexed principal note, the amount designated in the applicable pricing supplement as the "face amount" of such indexed note; and

- an index, which may be based on

(1) prices, changes in prices, or differences between prices, of one or more securities, currencies, intangibles, goods, articles or commodities;

(2) the application of a formula; or

(3) an index which shall be such other objective price, economic or other measures as are described in the applicable pricing supplement.

A description of the index used in any determination of an interest or principal payment, and the method or formula by which interest or principal payments will be determined based on such index, will be set forth in the applicable pricing supplement.

If a fixed rate note, floating rate note or indexed rate note is also an indexed principal note, the amount of any interest payment will be determined based on the face amount of such indexed note unless specified otherwise in the applicable pricing supplement. If an indexed note is also an indexed principal note, the principal amount payable at stated maturity or any earlier redemption or repayment of the indexed note may be different from the face amount.

If a third party is appointed to calculate or announce the index for a particular indexed note, and the third party either (1) suspends the calculation or announcement of such index or (2) changes the basis upon which such index is calculated in a manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing supplement, then Citigroup will select another third party to calculate or announce the index. The agent or another affiliate of Citigroup may be either the original or successor third party selected by Citigroup.

S-24

If for any reason such index cannot be calculated on the same basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original third party, then any indexed interest payments or any indexed principal amount of such indexed note will be calculated in the manner set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Any determination by the selected third party will be binding on all parties, except in the case of an obvious error.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, for the purpose of determining whether holders of the requisite principal amount of notes outstanding under the applicable indenture have made a demand or given a notice or waiver or taken any other action, the outstanding principal amount of indexed notes will be deemed to be the face amount stated on such notes. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, in the event of an acceleration of the stated maturity of an indexed note, the principal amount payable to the holder of such note upon acceleration will be the principal amount determined based on the formula used to determine the principal amount of such note on the stated maturity of such note, as if the date of acceleration were the stated maturity.

An investment in indexed notes has significant risks, including wide fluctuations in market value as well as in the amounts of payments due, that are not associated with a similar investment in a conventional debt security. Such risks depend on a number of factors including supply and demand for the particular security, currency, commodity or other good or article to which the note is indexed and economic and political events over which Citigroup has no control. See "Risk Factors -- Changes in the Value of Underlying Assets of Indexed Notes Could Result in a Substantial Loss to You" above for a discussion of these considerations.

Fluctuations in the price of any particular security or commodity, in the rates of exchange between particular currencies or in particular indices that have occurred in the past are not necessarily indicative, however, of fluctuations in the price or rates of exchange that may occur during the term of any indexed notes. Accordingly, prospective investors should consult their own financial and legal advisors as to the risks of investment in indexed notes.

DUAL CURRENCY NOTES

Citigroup may from time to time offer dual currency notes on which Citigroup has a one time option of making all payments of principal, any premium and interest on such notes that are issued on the same day and have the same terms, the payments on which would otherwise be made in the specified currency of such notes, in the optional payment currency specified in the applicable pricing supplement. Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on an option election date, which will be any one of the dates specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

The pricing supplement for each issuance of dual currency notes will specify, among other things,

- the specified currency;

- the optional payment currency; and

- the designated exchange rate.

Such designated exchange rate will be a fixed exchange rate used for converting amounts denominated in the specified currency into amounts denominated in the optional payment currency. The pricing supplement will also specify the option election dates and interest payment dates for the related issuance of dual currency notes. Each option election date will be a particular number of days before an interest payment date or stated maturity, as set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Each option election date will be the date on which Citigroup may select whether to make all scheduled payments due thereafter in the optional payment currency rather than in the specified currency.

If Citigroup makes such an election, the amount payable in the optional payment currency will be determined using the designated exchange rate specified in the applicable pricing supplement. If such election is made, notice of such election will be mailed in accordance with the terms of the dual currency notes within two business days of the option election date. Such notice will state (1) the first date, whether an interest payment date and/or stated maturity, on which scheduled payments in the optional

S-25

payment currency will be made and (2) the designated exchange rate. Any such notice by Citigroup, once given, may not be withdrawn. The equivalent value in the specified currency of payments made after such an election may be less, at the then current exchange rate, than if Citigroup had made such payment in the specified currency.

For United States federal income tax purposes, holders of dual currency notes may need to comply with rules which differ from the general rules applicable to holders of other types of notes offered by this prospectus supplement. The United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of dual currency notes will be set forth in the applicable pricing supplement.

RENEWABLE NOTES

Citigroup may from time to time offer renewable notes, which will mature on an initial maturity date. Such initial maturity date will be an interest payment date specified in the applicable pricing supplement occurring in, or prior to, the twelfth month following the original issue date of such notes, unless the term of all or any portion of any such notes is renewed in accordance with the procedures described below.

The term of a renewable note may be extended to the interest payment date occurring in the twelfth month, or, if a special election interval is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the last month in a period equal to twice the special election interval elected by the holder after such renewal date. Such an extension may be made on the initial renewal date. That date will be the interest payment date occurring in the sixth month, unless a special election interval is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, prior to the initial maturity date of a renewable note and on the interest payment date occurring in each sixth month, or in the last month of each special election interval, after such initial renewal date which, together with the initial renewal date, constitutes a renewal date.

If a holder does not elect to extend the term of any portion of the principal amount of a renewable note during the specified period prior to any renewal date, such portion will become due and payable on the new maturity date. Such new maturity date will be the interest payment date occurring in the sixth month, or the last month in the special election interval, after such renewal date.

A holder of a renewable note may elect to renew the term of such renewable note, or if so specified in the applicable pricing supplement, any portion of such renewable note, by delivering a notice to such effect to the trustee or any duly appointed paying agent at the corporate trust office of the trustee or agency of the trustee in New York City. Such notice will be delivered not less than 15 nor more than 30 days prior to such renewal date, unless another period is specified in the applicable pricing supplement as the special election period. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon each subsequent holder of such renewable note.

An election to renew the term of a renewable note may be exercised for less than the entire principal amount of such renewable note only if so specified in the applicable pricing supplement and only in such principal amount, or any integral multiple in excess of such amount, that is specified in the applicable pricing supplement. However, the term of the renewable notes may not be extended beyond the stated maturity specified for such renewable notes in the applicable pricing supplement.

If the holder does not elect to renew the term, such renewable note must be presented to the trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent. If such renewable note is a certificate issued in definitive form, it must be presented to the trustee as soon as practicable following receipt of such renewable note. The trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, will issue in exchange for such note, in the name of such holder, a note. The note will be in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged renewable note for which no election to renew such term was exercised, with terms identical to those specified on such renewable note. However, such note will have a fixed, nonrenewable stated maturity on the new maturity date.

If an election to renew is made for less than the full principal amount of a holder's renewable note, the trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, will issue in exchange for such note in the name of such holder, a replacement renewable note. The replacement renewable note will be in a principal amount equal

S-26

to the principal amount elected to be renewed of such exchanged renewable note, with terms otherwise identical to such exchanged renewable note.

EXTENSION OF MATURITY

The pricing supplement will indicate whether Citigroup has the option to extend the stated maturity of such note for an extension period. Such an extension period is one or more periods of one to five whole years, up to but not beyond the final maturity date set forth in such pricing supplement.

Citigroup may exercise such option for a note by notifying the trustee for such note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to the original stated maturity of such note. Not later than 40 days prior to the original stated maturity of such note, the trustee will mail to the holders of such notes an extension notice, first class, postage prepaid. The extension notice will set forth:

- the election of Citigroup to extend the stated maturity of such note;

- the new stated maturity;

- in the case of a fixed rate note, the interest rate applicable to the extension period;

- in the case of a floating rate note, the spread, spread multiplier or method of calculation applicable to the extension period; and

- any provisions for redemption during the extension period, including the date or dates on which, or the period or periods during which, and the price or prices at which, such redemption may occur during the extension period.

Upon the mailing by the trustee of an extension notice to the holders of the notes, the stated maturity of such note will be extended automatically, and, except as modified by the extension notice and as described in the next paragraph, such note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such extension notice. Despite the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the original stated maturity of such note, Citigroup may, at its option, revoke the interest rate, or the spread or spread multiplier, as the case may be, provided for in the extension notice for such note and establish for the extension period a higher interest rate, in the case of a fixed rate note, or a higher spread or spread multiplier, in the case of a floating rate note.

Citigroup may so act by causing the trustee for such note to mail notice of such higher interest rate or higher spread or spread multiplier, as the case may be, first class, postage prepaid, to the holder of such note. Such notice will be irrevocable. All notes for which the stated maturity is extended will bear such higher interest rate, in the case of fixed rate notes, or higher spread or spread multiplier, in the case of floating rate notes, for the extension period, whether or not tendered for repayment.

If Citigroup extends the stated maturity of a note, the holder of such note will have the option to elect repayment of such note by Citigroup on the original stated maturity at a price equal to the principal amount of such note, plus interest accrued to such date. In order for a note to be repaid on the original stated maturity once Citigroup has extended its stated maturity, the holder of such note must follow the procedures set forth below under "Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase" for optional repayment. The period for delivery of such note or notification to the trustee for such note will be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to the original stated maturity. A holder who has tendered a note for repayment after an extension notice may give written notice to the trustee for such note to revoke any such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the original stated maturity.

COMBINATION OF PROVISIONS

If so specified in the applicable pricing supplement, any note may be required to comply with all of the provisions, or any combination of the provisions, described above under "Subsequent Interest Periods," "Extension of Maturity" and "Renewable Notes."

S-27

BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM

Upon issuance, and unless the rules of DTC state otherwise, all book-entry notes having the same original issue date and otherwise identical terms will be represented by a single global security. Each global security representing book-entry notes will be deposited with, or on behalf of, DTC and registered in the name of a nominee of DTC. Book-entry notes will not be exchangeable for certificated notes and, except under the circumstances described in the prospectus under "Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement," will not otherwise be issuable as certificated notes.

If an issue of notes is denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, Citigroup will make payments of principal and any interest in the foreign currency in which the notes are denominated or in U.S. dollars. DTC has elected to have all such payments of principal and interest in U.S. dollars unless notified by any of its participants through which an interest in the notes is held that it elects, in accordance with, and to the extent permitted by, the applicable pricing supplement and the revelant note, to receive such payment of principal or interest in the foreign currency. On or prior to the third business day after the record date for payment of interest and twelve days prior to the date for payment of principal, such participant will notify DTC of
(1) its election to receive all, or the specified portion, of such payment in the foreign currency and (2) its instructions for wire transfer of such payment to a foreign currency account.

A further description of DTC's procedures regarding global securities representing book-entry notes is set forth in the prospectus under "Book-Entry Procedures and Settlement." DTC has confirmed to Citigroup, the agent and the trustees that it intends to follow such procedures.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION, REPAYMENT AND REPURCHASE

The pricing supplement relating to each note will indicate whether such note can be redeemed at the option of Citigroup, in whole or in part prior to its stated maturity. The applicable pricing supplement will also indicate (1) the optional redemption date or dates on which such note may be redeemed and (2) the redemption price at which, together with accrued interest to such optional redemption date, such note may be redeemed on each such optional redemption date.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, at least 30 days prior to the date of redemption, the trustee will mail notice of such redemption, first class, postage prepaid, to the holder of such note. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, Citigroup may exercise such option relating to a redemption of a note in part only by notifying the trustee for such note at least 45 days prior to any optional redemption date. In the event of redemption of a note in part only, a new note or notes for the unredeemed portion of such note or notes will be issued to the holder of such note or notes upon the cancellation of such note or notes. The redemption of any subordinated note that is included in Citigroup's capital may be subject to consultation with the Federal Reserve, which may not acquiesce in the redemption of such note unless it is satisfied that the capital position of Citigroup will be adequate after the proposed redemption.

The pricing supplement relating to each note will also indicate whether the holder of such note will have the option to elect repayment of such note by Citigroup prior to its stated maturity. If so, such pricing supplement will specify (1) the optional repayment date or dates on which such note may be repaid and (2) the optional repayment price. Such optional repayment price is the price at which, together with accrued interest to such optional repayment date, such note may be repaid on each such optional repayment date.

In order for a note to be repaid, the trustee for such note must receive, at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an optional repayment date:

(1) such note with the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" on the reverse of such note duly completed; or

S-28

(2) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth:

- the name of the holder of such note;

- the principal amount of such note to be repaid;

- the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of such note;

- a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised; and

- a guarantee that the note to be repaid with the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" on the reverse of the note duly completed will be received by such trustee not later than five business days after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter.

If the guarantee procedure described in clause (2) above is followed, then such note and form duly completed must be received by the trustee by such fifth business day. Any tender of a note by the holder for repayment, except pursuant to a reset notice or an extension notice, will be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised by the holder of a note for less than the entire principal amount of such note, provided, that the principal amount of such note remaining outstanding after repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial repayment, such note will be canceled and a new note or notes for the remaining principal amount will be issued in the name of the holder of such repaid note.

If a note is represented by a global security, DTC's nominee will be the holder of such note and, therefore, will be the only entity that can exercise a right to repayment. In order to ensure that DTC's nominee will timely exercise a right to repayment relating to a particular note, the beneficial owner of such note must instruct the broker or other direct or indirect participant through which it holds an interest in such note to notify DTC of its desire to exercise a right to repayment. Different firms have different cut-off times for accepting instructions from their customers. Accordingly, each beneficial owner should consult the broker or other direct or indirect participant through which it holds an interest in a note in order to ascertain the cut-off time by which such an instruction must be given in order for timely notice to be delivered to DTC.

If Citigroup redeems or repays a note that is an OID note other than an indexed note prior to its stated maturity, then Citigroup will pay the amortized face amount of the note as of the date of redemption or repayment regardless of anything else stated in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus.

The amortized face amount of a note on any date means the amount equal to:

- the issue price set forth on the face of the applicable pricing supplement plus

- that portion of the difference between the issue price and the stated principal amount of the note that has accrued by that date at

(1) the bond yield to maturity set forth in the applicable pricing supplement, or

(2) if so specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the bond yield to call set forth on the face of the note.

These computations will be made in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles. However, the amortized face amount of a note will never exceed its stated principal amount. The bond yield to call listed in a pricing supplement will be computed on the basis of:

- the first occurring optional redemption date with respect to such note and

- the amount payable on such optional redemption date.

In the event that any such note is not redeemed on such first occurring optional redemption date, the bond yield to call that applies to such note will be recomputed on such optional redemption date on the basis of

S-29

(1) the next occurring optional redemption date and (2) the amount payable on such optional redemption date. The bond yield to call will continue to be so recomputed on each succeeding optional redemption date until the note is so redeemed.

Citigroup may at any time purchase notes at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by Citigroup may, at the discretion of Citigroup, be held, resold or surrendered to the trustee for such notes for cancellation.

OTHER PROVISIONS

The terms in the applicable pricing supplement may modify any provisions relating to:

- the determination of an interest rate basis;

- the specification of an interest rate basis;

- calculation of the interest rate applicable to, or the principal payable at maturity on, any note;

- interest payment dates; or

- any other related matters.

DEFEASANCE

The defeasance provisions described in the prospectus will not be applicable to the notes except as set forth in the applicable pricing supplement.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

The following is a general summary of United States federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a beneficial owner of a note. The summary is based on:

- laws;

- regulations;

- rulings; and

- decisions now in effect,

all of which may change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary deals only with beneficial owners that will hold notes as capital assets. This summary does not address all of the United States federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a beneficial owner of notes. For example, this summary does not address tax considerations applicable to investors to whom special tax rules may apply, including:

- banks or other financial institutions;

- tax-exempt entities;

- insurance companies;

- regulated investment companies;

- common trust funds;

- entities that are treated for United States federal income tax purposes as partnerships or other pass-through entities;

- controlled foreign corporations;

- dealers in securities or currencies;

- persons that will hold notes as a hedge or in order to hedge against currency risk or as a part of an integrated investment, including a "straddle" or "conversion transaction", comprised of a note and one or more other positions; or

- United States holders (as defined below) that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.

Any special United States federal income tax considerations relevant to a particular issue of notes, including any indexed notes, dual currency notes or notes providing for contingent payments, will be provided in the applicable pricing supplement. Purchasers of such notes should carefully examine the applicable pricing supplement and should consult with their tax advisors with respect to such notes.

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors in determining the tax consequences to them of purchasing, holding, and disposing of the notes, including the application to their particular situation of the United States federal income tax considerations discussed below, as well as the application of state, local, foreign or other tax laws.

As used in this summary, the term United States holder means a beneficial owner of a note who is

- a citizen or resident of the United States;

- a corporation or other entity treated as a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;

- an estate, if United States federal income taxation is applicable to the income of such estate regardless of its source; or

S-31

- a trust if a United States court is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all of the trust's substantial decisions.

As used in this summary, the term "non-United States holder" means a beneficial owner of a note who is not a United States holder and the term "United States" means the United States of America, including the fifty states and the District of Columbia, but excluding its territories and possessions.

UNITED STATES HOLDERS

Payments of Interest

Payments of qualified stated interest, as defined below under "Original Issue Discount," on a note will be taxable to a United States holder as ordinary interest income at the time that such payments are accrued or are received, in accordance with the United States holder's method of tax accounting.

If such payments of interest are made relating to a note that is denominated in a foreign currency, the amount of interest income realized by a United States holder that uses the cash method of tax accounting will be the U.S. dollar value of the specified currency payment based on the spot rate of exchange on the date of receipt regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. No exchange gain or loss will be recognized with respect to the receipt of such payment (other than exchange gain or loss realized on the disposition of the foreign currency so received). A United States holder that uses the accrual method of tax accounting will accrue interest income on the foreign currency note in the relevant foreign currency and translate the amount accrued into U.S. dollars based on:

- the average exchange rate in effect during the interest accrual period, or portion thereof, within such holder's taxable year; or

- at such holder's election, at the spot rate of exchange on (1) the last day of the accrual period, or the last day of the taxable year within such accrual period if the accrual period spans more than one taxable year, or (2) the date of receipt, if such date is within five business days of the last day of the accrual period.

Such election must be applied consistently by the United States holder to all debt instruments from year to year and can be changed only with the consent of the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"). A United States holder that uses the accrual method of tax accounting will recognize foreign currency gain or loss on the receipt of an interest payment made relating to a foreign currency note if the spot rate of exchange on the date the payment is received differs from the rate applicable to a previous accrual of that interest income. Such foreign currency gain or loss will be treated as ordinary income or loss, but generally will not be treated as an adjustment to interest income received on the notes.

Purchase, Sale and Retirement of Notes

A United States holder's tax basis in a note generally will equal the cost of such note to such holder

- increased by any amounts includible in income by the holder as original issue discount ("OID") and market discount (each as described below) and

- reduced by any amortized premium and any payments other than payments of qualified stated interest (each as described below) made on such note.

In the case of a foreign currency note, the cost of such note to a United States holder will generally be the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency purchase price on the date of purchase calculated at the spot rate of exchange on that date. In the case of a foreign currency note that is traded on an established securities market, a United States holder generally should determine the U.S. dollar value of the cost of such note by translating the amount paid in foreign currency into its U.S. dollar value at the spot rate of exchange (i) on the settlement date of the purchase in the case of a United States holder using the cash method of tax accounting and (ii) on the trade date, in the case of a United States holder using the accrual method of tax accounting, unless such holder elects to use the spot rate applicable to cash method United States holders. The amount of any subsequent adjustments to a United States holder's tax basis in a foreign currency note in respect of OID, market discount and premium will be determined in the manner

S-32

described under "Original Issue Discount," "Market Discount" and "Notes Purchased at a Premium" below. The conversion of U.S. dollars to another specified currency and the immediate use of such specified currency to purchase a foreign currency note generally will not result in any exchange gain or loss for a United States holder.

Upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition (collectively, a "disposition") of a note, a United States holder generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (1) the amount realized on the disposition, less any accrued qualified stated interest, which will be taxable as ordinary income in the manner described above under "Payments of Interest," and (2) the United States holder's adjusted tax basis in such note. If a United States holder receives a specified currency other than the U.S. dollar in respect of such disposition of a note, the amount realized will be the U.S. dollar value of the specified currency received calculated at the spot rate of exchange on the date of disposition of the note.

In the case of a foreign currency note that is traded on an established securities market, a United States holder that receives a specified currency other than the U.S. dollar in respect of such disposition generally should determine the amount realized (as determined on the trade date) by translating that specified currency into its U.S. dollar value at the spot rate of exchange
(i) on the settlement date of the disposition in the case of a United States holder using the cash method of tax accounting and (ii) on the trade date, in the case of a United States holder using the accrual method of tax accounting, unless such holder elects to use the spot rate applicable to cash method United States holders. The election available to accrual basis United States holders in respect of the purchase and sale of foreign currency notes traded on an established securities market, discussed above, must be applied consistently by the United States holder to all debt instruments from year to year and can be changed only with the consent of the IRS.

Except as discussed below in connection with foreign currency gain or loss, market discount and short-term notes, gain or loss recognized by a United States holder on the disposition of a note will generally be long term capital gain or loss if the United States holder's holding period for the note exceeds one year at the time of such disposition.

Gain or loss recognized by a United States holder on the disposition of a foreign currency note generally will be treated as ordinary income or loss to the extent that the gain or loss is attributable to changes in exchange rates during the period in which the holder held such note.

Original Issue Discount

In General. Notes with a term greater than one year may be issued with OID for United States federal income tax purposes. Such notes are called OID notes in this prospectus supplement. United States holders generally must accrue OID in gross income over the term of the OID notes on a constant yield basis, regardless of their regular method of tax accounting. As a result, United States holders generally will recognize taxable income in respect of an OID note in advance of the receipt of cash attributable to such income.

OID generally will arise if the stated redemption price at maturity of the note exceeds its issue price by more than a de minimis amount of 0.25% of the note's stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity. OID may also arise if a note has particular interest payment characteristics, such as interest holidays, interest payable in additional securities or stepped interest. For this purpose, the issue price of a note is the first price at which a substantial amount of notes is sold for cash, other than to bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers. The stated redemption price at maturity of a note is the sum of all payments due under the note, other than payments of qualified stated interest. The term qualified stated interest generally means stated interest that is unconditionally payable in cash or property, other than debt instruments of the issuer, at least annually during the entire term of the OID note at a single fixed rate of interest or, under particular conditions, based on one or more interest indices.

S-33

For each taxable year of a United States holder, the amount of OID that must be included in gross income in respect of an OID note will be the sum of the daily portions of OID for each day during such taxable year or any portion of such taxable year in which such a United States holder held the OID note. Such daily portions are determined by allocating to each day in an accrual period a pro rata portion of the OID allocable to that accrual period. Accrual periods may be of any length and may vary in length over the term of an OID note. However, accrual periods may not be longer than one year and each scheduled payment of principal or interest must occur on the first day or the final day of a period.

The amount of OID allocable to any accrual period generally will equal (1) the product of the OID note's adjusted issue price at the beginning of such accrual period multiplied by its yield to maturity (as adjusted to take into account the length of such accrual period), less (2) the amount, if any, of qualified stated interest allocable to that accrual period. The adjusted issue price of an OID note at the beginning of any accrual period will equal the issue price of the OID note, as defined above, (1) increased by previously accrued OID from prior accrual periods, and (2) reduced by any payment made on such note, other than payments of qualified stated interest, on or before the first day of the accrual period.

Foreign Currency Notes. In the case of an OID note that is also a foreign currency note, a United States holder should determine the U.S. dollar amount includible in income as OID for each accrual period by

- calculating the amount of OID allocable to each accrual period in the specified currency using the constant-yield method described above and

- translating the amount of the specified currency so derived at the average exchange rate in effect during that accrual period, or portion of such accrual period within a United States holder's taxable year, or, at the United States holder's election (as described above under "Payments of Interest"), at the spot rate of exchange on (1) the last day of the accrual period, or the last day of the taxable year within such accrual period if the accrual period spans more than one taxable year, or (2) on the date of receipt, if such date is within five business days of the last day of the accrual period.

All payments on an OID note, other than payments of qualified stated interest, will generally be viewed first as payments of previously accrued OID, to the extent thereof, with payments attributed first to the earliest accrued OID, and then as payments of principal. Upon the receipt of an amount attributable to OID, whether in connection with a payment of an amount that is not qualified stated interest or the disposition of the OID note, a United States holder will recognize ordinary income or loss measured by the difference between (1) the amount received and (2) the amount accrued. The amount received will be translated into U.S. dollars at the spot rate of exchange on the date of receipt or on the date of disposition of the OID note. The amount accrued will be determined by using the spot rate of exchange applicable to such previous accrual.

Acquisition Premium. A United States holder that purchases an OID note for an amount less than or equal to the remaining redemption amount, but in excess of the OID note's adjusted issue price, generally is permitted to reduce the daily portions of OID by a fraction. The numerator of such fraction is the excess of the United States holder's adjusted tax basis in the OID note immediately after its purchase over the OID note's adjusted issue price. The denominator of such fraction is the excess of the remaining redemption amount over the OID note's adjusted issue price. For purposes of this prospectus supplement,

"acquisition premium" means the excess of the purchase price paid by a United States holder for an OID note over the OID note's adjusted issue price; and

"remaining redemption amount" means the sum of all amounts payable on an OID note after the purchase date other than payments of qualified stated interest.

The notes may have special redemption, repayment or interest rate reset features, as indicated in the applicable pricing supplement. Notes containing such features, in particular OID notes, may be subject to special rules that differ from the general rules discussed above. Accordingly, purchasers of notes with such

S-34

features should carefully examine the applicable pricing supplement and should consult their tax advisors relating to such notes.

Market Discount

If a United States holder purchases a note, other than a short-term note, for an amount that is less than the note's stated redemption price at maturity or, in the case of an OID note, for an amount that is less than the note's revised issue price, i.e., the note's issue price increased by the amount of accrued OID, the note will be considered to have market discount. The market discount rules are subject to a de minimis rule similar to the rule relating to de minimis OID, described above (in the second paragraph under "Original Issue Discount"). Any gain recognized by the United States holder on the disposition of notes having market discount generally will be treated as ordinary income to the extent of the market discount that accrued on the note while held by such United States holder.

Alternatively, the United States holder may elect to include market discount in income currently over the life of the note. Such an election will apply to market discount notes acquired by the United States holder on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which such election applies and is revocable only with the consent of the IRS. Market discount will accrue on a straight-line basis unless the United States holder elects to accrue the market discount on a constant-yield method. Such an election will apply to the note to which it is made and is irrevocable. Unless the United States holder elects to include market discount in income on a current basis, as described above, the United States holder could be required to defer the deduction of a portion of the interest paid on any indebtedness incurred or maintained to purchase or carry the note.

Market discount on a foreign currency note will be accrued by a United States holder in the specified currency. The amount includible in income by a United States holder in respect of such accrued market discount will be the U.S. dollar value of the amount accrued. This is generally calculated at the spot rate of exchange on the date that the note is disposed of by the United States holder. Any accrued market discount on a foreign currency note that is currently includible in income will be translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the accrual period or portion of such accrual period within the United States holder's taxable year.

Short-Term Notes

The rules set forth above also will generally apply to notes having maturities of not more than one year from the date of issuance. Those notes are called short-term notes in this prospectus supplement. Modifications apply to these general rules.

First, none of the interest on a short-term note is treated as qualified stated interest but instead is treated as part of the short-term note's stated redemption price at maturity, thereby giving rise to OID. Thus, all short-term notes will be OID notes. OID will be treated as accruing on a short-term note ratably, or at the election of a United States holder, under a constant yield method.

Second, a United States holder of a short-term note that uses the cash method of tax accounting will generally not be required to include OID in respect of the short-term note in income on a current basis. Such a United States holder may not be allowed to deduct all of the interest paid or accrued on any indebtedness incurred or maintained to purchase or carry such note until the maturity of the note or its earlier disposition in a taxable transaction. In addition, such a United States holder will be required to treat any gain realized on a disposition of the note as ordinary income to the extent of the holder's accrued OID on the note, and short-term capital gain to the extent the gain exceeds accrued OID. A United States holder of a short-term note using the cash method of tax accounting may, however, elect to accrue OID into income on a current basis. In such case, the limitation on the deductibility of interest described above will not apply. A United States holder using the accrual method of tax accounting generally will be required to include OID on a short-term note in income on a current basis.

S-35

Third, any United States holder of a short-term note, whether using the cash or accrual method of tax accounting, can elect to accrue the acquisition discount, if any, on the note on a current basis. If such an election is made, the OID rules will not apply to the note. Acquisition discount is the excess of the note's stated redemption price at maturity over the holder's purchase price for the note. Acquisition discount will be treated as accruing ratably or, at the election of the United States holder, under a constant-yield method based on daily compounding.

As described above, the notes may have special redemption features. These features may affect the determination of whether a note has a maturity of not more than one year and thus is a short-term note. Purchasers of notes with such features should carefully examine the applicable pricing supplement and should consult their tax advisors in relation to such features.

Notes Purchased at a Premium

A United States holder that purchases a note for an amount in excess of the remaining redemption amount will be considered to have purchased the note at a premium and the OID rules will not apply to such holder. Such holder may elect to amortize such premium, as an offset to interest income, using a constant-yield method, over the remaining term of the note. Such election, once made, generally applies to all debt instruments held by the United States holder at the beginning of the first taxable year to which the election applies and to all debt instruments subsequently acquired by the United States holder. Such election may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. A United States holder that elects to amortize such premium must reduce its tax basis in a note by the amount of the premium amortized during its holding period. For a United States holder that does not elect to amortize bond premium, the amount of such premium will be included in the United States holder's tax basis when the note matures or is disposed of by the United States holder. Therefore, a United States holder that does not elect to amortize premium and holds the note to maturity will generally be required to treat the premium as capital loss when the note matures.

Amortizable bond premium in respect of a foreign currency note will be computed in the specified currency and will reduce interest income in the specified currency. At the time amortized bond premium offsets interest income, exchange gain or loss, which will be taxable as ordinary income or loss, will be realized on the amortized bond premium on such note based on the difference between (1) the spot rate of exchange on the date or dates such premium is recovered through interest payments on the note and (2) the spot rate of exchange on the date on which the United States holder acquired the note. See "Original Issue Discount -- Acquisition Premium" above for a discussion of the treatment of a note purchased for an amount less than or equal to the remaining redemption amount but in excess of the note's adjusted issue price.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Information returns may be required to be filed with the IRS relating to payments made to particular United States holders of notes. In addition, United States holders may be subject to a backup withholding tax on such payments if they do not provide their taxpayer identification numbers to the trustee in the manner required, fail to certify that they are not subject to backup withholding tax, or otherwise fail to comply with applicable backup withholding tax rules. United States holders may also be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax with respect to the proceeds from a disposition of the notes. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against the United States holder's United States federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

S-36

NON-UNITED STATES HOLDERS

Under current United States federal income tax law:

- withholding of United States federal income tax will not apply to a payment on a note to a non-United States holder, provided that,

(1) the holder does not actually or constructively own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of Citigroup entitled to vote and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to Citigroup through stock ownership;

(2) the beneficial owner provides a statement signed under penalties of perjury that includes its name and address and certifies that it is a non-United States holder in compliance with applicable requirements; and

(3) neither Citigroup nor its paying agent has actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner of the note is a United States holder.

- withholding of United States federal income tax will generally not apply to any gain realized on the disposition of a note.

Despite the above, if a non-United States holder is engaged in a trade or business in the United States (or, if certain tax treaties apply, if the non-United States holder maintains a permanent establishment within the United States) and the interest on the notes is effectively connected with the conduct of that trade or business (or, if certain tax treaties apply, attributable to that permanent establishment), such non-United States holder will be subject to United States federal income tax on the interest on a net income basis in the same manner as if such non-United States holder were a United States holder. In addition, a non-United States holder that is a foreign corporation engaged in a trade or business in the United States may be subject to a 30% (or, if certain tax treaties apply, such lower rates as provided) branch profits tax.

Any gain realized on the disposition of a note generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax unless:

- that gain is effectively connected with the non-United States holder's conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or, if certain tax treaties apply, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-United States holder within the United States); or

- the non-United States holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are met.

In general, backup withholding and information reporting will not apply to a payment of interest on a note to a non-United States holder, or to proceeds from the disposition of a note by a non-United States holder, in each case, if the holder certifies under penalties of perjury that it is a non-United States holder and neither Citigroup nor its paying agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be refunded or credited against the non-United States holder's United States federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. In certain circumstances, if a note is not held through a qualified intermediary, the amount of payments made on such note, the name and address of the beneficial owner and the amount, if any, of tax withheld may be reported to the IRS.

S-37

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The notes are being offered on a continuous basis by Citigroup through Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as agent. The agent has agreed to use its reasonable efforts to solicit orders to purchase notes. The agent and Citigroup will sign a distribution agreement. A form of distribution agreement has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part. Citigroup will have the sole right to accept orders to purchase notes and may reject proposed purchases in whole or in part. The agent will have the right to reject any proposed purchase in whole or in part. Citigroup reserves the right to withdraw, cancel or modify the offer made by this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any pricing supplement without notice.

The following table summarizes the aggregate commissions or discounts payable in connection with offerings of the notes. Commissions and discounts will vary depending upon the stated maturity of the notes.

Citigroup may also sell notes at a discount to the agent for its own account or for resale to one or more purchasers at varying prices related to prevailing market prices or at a fixed public offering price. After any initial public offering of notes to be resold to purchasers at a fixed public offering price, the public offering price and any concession or discount may be changed. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, any note purchased by the agent as principal will be purchased at 100% of the principal amount or face amount less a percentage equal to the commission applicable to an agency sale of a note of identical maturity.

The agent may offer and sell notes purchased by it as principal to other dealers. These notes may be sold at a discount which, unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, will not exceed the discount to be received by the agent.

Citigroup reserves the right to sell notes directly to investors on its own behalf and to enter into agreements similar to the distribution agreement with other parties. No commission will be payable nor will a discount be allowed on any sales made directly by Citigroup.

Unless notes are issued upon the reopening of a prior series, no note will have an established trading market when issued. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. The agent may make a market in the notes, but the agent is not obligated to do so. The agent may discontinue any market-making at any time without notice, at its sole discretion. There can be no assurance of the existence or liquidity of a secondary market for any notes, or that the maximum amount of notes will be sold.

Citigroup estimates that its total expenses for the offering, excluding underwriting commissions or discounts, will be approximately $ .

The agent, whether acting as agent or principal, may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933. Citigroup has agreed to indemnify the agent against liabilities relating to material misstatements and omissions, or to contribute to payments that the agent may be required to make relating to these liabilities. Citigroup will reimburse the agent for customary legal and other expenses, incurred by it in connection with the offer and sale of the notes.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, payment of the purchase price of the notes will be required to be made in immediately available funds in New York City on the date of settlement.

Concurrently with the offering of notes through the agent as described in this prospectus supplement, Citigroup may issue other securities under the indenture referred to in the prospectus.

S-38

The broker-dealer subsidiaries of Citigroup are members of the NASD and may participate in offerings of the notes. Accordingly, offerings of the notes in which Citigroup's broker-dealer subsidiaries participate will conform with the requirements set forth in Rule 2720 of the Conduct Rules of the NASD.

This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the related pricing supplement may be used by the agent or other affiliates of Citigroup in connection with offers and sales of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement in market-making transactions at negotiated prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of sale. The agent or these other affiliates may act as principal or agent in such transactions.

SUMMARY INFORMATION -- Q&A

This summary provides a brief overview of the key aspects of Citigroup and the % capital securities. You should carefully read this prospectus to understand fully the terms of the capital securities as well as the tax and other considerations that are important to you in making a decision about whether to invest in the capital securities. You should pay special attention to the "Risk Factors" section beginning on page 6 of this prospectus to determine whether an investment in the capital securities is appropriate for you.

WHAT ARE THE CAPITAL SECURITIES?

Each capital security represents an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of Citigroup Capital. Each capital security will entitle the holder to receive cash distributions as described in this prospectus. Citigroup Capital is offering capital securities at a price of $ for each capital security.

WHO IS CITIGROUP CAPITAL?

Citigroup Capital (referred to in this prospectus as "Citigroup Capital") is a Delaware statutory trust. Its principal place of business is c/o Citigroup Inc., 399 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10043, and its telephone number is
(212) 559-1000.

All of the common securities of Citigroup Capital will be owned by Citigroup Inc. Citigroup Capital will use the proceeds from the sale of the capital securities and the common securities to buy a series of % junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures due , 20 from Citigroup with the same financial terms as the capital securities.

WHO IS CITIGROUP INC.?

Citigroup is a diversified global financial services holding company whose businesses provide a broad range of financial services to consumer and corporate customers with some 200 million customer accounts doing business in more than 100 countries. Citigroup's activities are conducted through the Global Consumer, Global Corporate and Investment Bank, Private Client Services, Global Investment Management, and Proprietary Investment Activities business segments.

The mailing address of Citigroup's principal executive office is 399 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10043, and its telephone number is (212) 559-1000.

WHEN WILL YOU RECEIVE DISTRIBUTIONS ON THE CAPITAL SECURITIES?

Citigroup Capital's only source of cash to make payments on the capital securities are payments on the junior subordinated debt securities it purchases from Citigroup.

If you purchase the capital securities, you are entitled to receive cumulative cash distributions at an annual rate of % of the liquidation amount of $ per capital security. Distributions will accumulate from the date Citigroup Capital issues the capital securities and will be paid in arrears on of each year, beginning .

WHEN WILL PAYMENT OF YOUR DISTRIBUTIONS BE DEFERRED?

If Citigroup defers interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup Capital generally will defer distributions on the capital securities. A deferral may be for up to consecutive periods. A deferral of distributions cannot extend, however, beyond , 20 .

3

During any deferral period, except as described on page 28, Citigroup will not be permitted to:

- pay a dividend or make any distributions on its capital stock or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment on any of its capital stock, or make any guarantee payments relating to the foregoing; or

- make an interest, principal or premium payment on, or repurchase or redeem, any of its debt securities that rank equal with or junior to the junior subordinated debt securities.

WHEN CAN CITIGROUP CAPITAL REDEEM THE CAPITAL SECURITIES?

Citigroup Capital must redeem all of the outstanding capital securities on , 20 .

Some or all of the capital securities may be redeemed before , 20 on one or more occasions any time on or after , 20 . See "Risk Factors -- You Should Not Rely on the Distributions From the Capital Securities Through Their Maturity Date -- They May Be Redeemed at the Option of Citigroup." Also the capital securities may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time if certain changes in tax, investment company or bank regulatory law or interpretations occur and certain other conditions are satisfied. Citigroup may need regulatory approval to redeem the capital securities. See "Risk Factors -- You Should Not Rely on the Distributions From the Capital Securities Through Their Maturity Date -- They May Be Redeemed at Any Time if Certain Changes in Tax, Investment Company or Bank Regulatory Law Occur and -- You Should Not Rely on the Distributions From the Capital Securities Through Their Maturity Date -- Recent Accounting Changes May Give Rise to a Future Regulatory Capital Event That Would Entitle Citigroup to Redeem the Capital Securities" on page 7 and "Description of the Capital Securities -- Special Event Redemption" on page 16.

WHAT IS CITIGROUP'S GUARANTEE OF THE CAPITAL SECURITIES?

Citigroup's guarantee of the capital securities consists of:

- its obligations to make payments on the junior subordinated debt securities;

- its obligations under the capital securities guarantee; and

- its obligations under the amended and restated declaration of trust of Citigroup Capital, which sets forth the terms of Citigroup Capital.

Citigroup has irrevocably guaranteed that if a payment on the junior subordinated debt securities is made to Citigroup Capital but, for any reason, Citigroup Capital does not make the corresponding distribution or redemption payment to the holders of the capital securities, then Citigroup will make the payments directly to the holders of the capital securities. The guarantee does not cover payments when Citigroup Capital does not have sufficient funds to make payments on the capital securities.

Citigroup's obligations under the guarantee are subordinated as described on page 35.

WHEN COULD THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES BE DISTRIBUTED TO YOU?

Citigroup has the right to dissolve Citigroup Capital at any time. If Citigroup terminates Citigroup Capital, Citigroup Capital will redeem the capital securities by distributing the junior subordinated debt securities to holders of the capital securities and the common securities on a ratable basis. If the junior subordinated debt securities are distributed, Citigroup will use its best efforts to list the junior subordinated debt securities on the New York Stock Exchange or any other exchange on which the capital securities are then listed.

WILL THE CAPITAL SECURITIES BE LISTED ON A STOCK EXCHANGE?

Application will be made to list the capital securities on the NYSE. If approved for listing, Citigroup Capital expects the capital securities will begin trading on the NYSE within 30 days after they are first issued.

4

WILL HOLDERS OF THE CAPITAL SECURITIES HAVE ANY VOTING RIGHTS?

Generally, the holders of the capital securities will not have any voting rights. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Voting Rights" on page 19.

IN WHAT FORM WILL THE CAPITAL SECURITIES BE ISSUED?

The capital securities will be represented by one or more global securities that will be deposited with and registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company or its nominee. This means that you will not receive a certificate for your capital securities and that your broker will maintain your position in the capital securities. Citigroup Capital expects that the capital securities will be ready for delivery through DTC on or about .

RISK FACTORS

Your investment in the capital securities will involve several risks. You should carefully consider the following discussion of risks, and the other information in this prospectus, before deciding whether an investment in the capital securities is suitable for you.

CITIGROUP IS NOT REQUIRED TO PAY YOU UNDER THE GUARANTEE AND THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES UNLESS IT FIRST MAKES OTHER REQUIRED PAYMENTS.

Citigroup's obligations under the junior subordinated debt securities and the guarantee will rank junior to all of Citigroup's senior indebtedness as described on page 26. This means that Citigroup cannot make any payments on the junior subordinated debt securities or the guarantee if it defaults on a payment of senior indebtedness and does not cure the default within the applicable grace period or if the senior indebtedness becomes immediately due because of a default and has not yet been paid in full. In addition, Citigroup's obligations under the junior subordinated debt securities and the guarantee will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of Citigroup's subsidiaries.

In the event of the bankruptcy, liquidation or dissolution of Citigroup, its assets would be available to pay obligations under the junior subordinated debt securities and the guarantee only after Citigroup made all payments on its senior indebtedness.

Neither the capital securities, the junior subordinated debt securities nor the guarantee limit the ability of Citigroup and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including indebtedness that ranks senior in priority of payment to the junior subordinated debt securities and the guarantee. See "Description of Guarantee -- Status of the Guarantee" and "Description of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities -- Subordination" on pages 37 and 26, respectively.

CITIGROUP IS NOT REQUIRED TO PAY YOU UNDER THE GUARANTEE IF CITIGROUP CAPITAL DOES NOT HAVE CASH AVAILABLE.

The ability of Citigroup Capital to make payments on the capital securities is solely dependent upon Citigroup making the related payments on the junior subordinated debt securities when due.

If Citigroup defaults on its obligations to make payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup Capital will not have sufficient funds to make payments on the capital securities. In those circumstances, you will not be able to rely upon the guarantee for payment of these amounts. If this happens, your options are discussed on page 13.

DEFERRAL OF DISTRIBUTIONS WOULD HAVE ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR YOU AND MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE TRADING PRICE OF THE CAPITAL SECURITIES.

If distributions on the capital securities are deferred, you will be required to recognize interest income for United States federal income tax purposes in respect of your ratable share of the interest on the junior subordinated debt securities held by Citigroup Capital before you receive any cash distributions relating to this interest. In addition, you will not receive this cash if you sold the capital securities before the end of any deferral period or before the record date relating to distributions which are paid.

Citigroup has no current intention of deferring interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities and believes that such deferral is a remote possibility. However, if Citigroup exercises its right in the future, the capital securities may trade at a price that does not fully reflect the value of accrued but unpaid interest on the junior subordinated debt securities. If you sell the capital securities during an interest deferral period, you may not receive the same return on investment as someone else who continues to hold the capital securities. In addition, the existence of Citigroup's right to defer payments of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities may mean that the market price for the capital securities, which represent an undivided beneficial interest in the junior subordinated debt securities, may be more volatile than other securities that do not have these rights.

See "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" on page 40 for more information regarding the tax consequences of purchasing, holding and selling the capital securities.

YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON THE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THE CAPITAL SECURITIES THROUGH THEIR MATURITY DATE -- THEY MAY BE REDEEMED AT THE OPTION OF CITIGROUP.

The capital securities may be redeemed, in whole, at any time, or in part, from time to time, on or after , at a redemption price equal to $ per capital security plus any accrued and unpaid distributions to the redemption date. You should assume that this redemption option will be exercised if Citigroup is able to refinance at a lower interest rate or it is otherwise in the interest of Citigroup to redeem the junior subordinated debt securities. If the junior subordinated debt securities are redeemed, Citigroup Capital must redeem the capital securities and the common securities having an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of junior subordinated debt securities to be redeemed. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Redemption of Trust Securities" and "Description of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities -- Optional Redemption" on pages 15 and 27, respectively.

YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON THE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THE CAPITAL SECURITIES THROUGH THEIR MATURITY DATE -- THEY MAY BE REDEEMED AT ANY TIME IF CERTAIN CHANGES IN TAX, INVESTMENT COMPANY OR BANK REGULATORY LAW OCCUR.

If certain changes, which are more fully described below, in tax, investment company or bank regulatory law or interpretations occur and are continuing, and certain other conditions that are more fully described below are satisfied, the capital securities could be redeemed by Citigroup Capital within 90 days of the event at a redemption price equal to $ per security plus any accrued and unpaid distributions. See "Accounting Treatment; Regulatory Capital" "Description of the Capital Securities -- Special Event Redemption" and "-- Distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities" on pages 11, 16 and 17, respectively.

YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON THE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THE CAPITAL SECURITIES THROUGH THEIR MATURITY DATE -- RECENT ACCOUNTING CHANGES MAY GIVE RISE TO A FUTURE REGULATORY CAPITAL EVENT THAT WOULD ENTITLE CITIGROUP TO REDEEM THE CAPITAL SECURITIES

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities and, in December 2003, issued Revised Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46R"), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, which amended FIN 46. Historically, issuer trusts that issued capital securities have been consolidated by their parent companies. In addition, capital securities have been treated as eligible for Tier 1 capital treatment by bank holding companies, like Citigroup, under rules and regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") relating to minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries. Accordingly, Citigroup has consolidated its existing issuer trusts in preparing its consolidated financial statements in the past, and such issuer trusts' outstanding capital securities have been treated as Tier 1 capital by Citigroup.

It has been concluded that issuer trusts should no longer be consolidated by their parent companies under FIN 46R. As a result, Citigroup no longer consolidates its issuer trusts in preparing its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and has made certain adjustments to its financial statements to reflect the deconsolidation of such issuer trusts. Moreover, such deconsolidation could result in a change to the regulatory capital treatment of capital securities issued by Citigroup and other U.S. bank holding companies. Specifically, it is possible that since its issuer trusts are no longer consolidated by Citigroup, the capital securities issued by such issuer trusts would not be accorded Tier 1 capital treatment by the Federal Reserve. Although the Federal Reserve has indicated in supervisory letter SR 03-13, dated July 2, 2003 (the "supervisory letter"), that capital securities will continue to be treated as Tier 1 capital until notice is given to the contrary, the supervisory letter also indicates that the Federal Reserve will review the regulatory implications of any accounting treatment changes and will provide further guidance if necessary. In May 2004, the Federal Reserve proposed to revise its regulatory capital guidelines to permit bank holding companies to include in Tier 1 capital trust preferred securities that meet certain criteria even if such securities are not treated as a minority interest

7

in a consolidated subsidiary for accounting and regulatory reporting purposes. The capital securities are intended to meet the criteria for Tier 1 capital treatment that are established in the Federal Reserve's proposal. There is no assurance, however, that the proposal will be adopted as proposed.

If Tier 1 capital treatment were disallowed, Citigroup would have the right to redeem the junior subordinated debentures, thereby causing a mandatory early redemption of capital securities pursuant to the special "Regulatory Capital Event" redemption provisions described below. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities," "-- Special Event Redemption" and "Accounting Treatment; Regulatory Capital" on pages 17, 16 and 11, respectively.

THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE AS TO THE MARKET PRICES FOR THE CAPITAL SECURITIES OR THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES; THEREFORE, YOU MAY SUFFER A LOSS.

Citigroup Capital and Citigroup cannot give you any assurance as to the market prices for the capital securities or the junior subordinated debt securities that may be distributed in exchange for capital securities. Accordingly, the capital securities that an investor may purchase, whether pursuant to the offer made by this prospectus or in the secondary market, or the junior subordinated debt securities that a holder of capital securities may receive in exchange for capital securities, may trade at a discount to the price that the investor paid to purchase the capital securities. As a result of the right to defer payments on the capital securities, the market price of the capital securities may be more volatile than the market prices of other securities to which such optional deferrals do not apply.

THERE COULD BE AN ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCE TO YOU IF CITIGROUP TERMINATES CITIGROUP CAPITAL AND DISTRIBUTES JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES TO HOLDERS.

Citigroup has the right to terminate Citigroup Capital at any time, so long as it obtains any required regulatory approval. If Citigroup decides to exercise its right to terminate Citigroup Capital, Citigroup Capital will redeem the capital securities and common securities by distributing the junior subordinated debt securities to holders of the capital securities and common securities on a ratable basis.

Under current United States federal income tax law, a distribution of junior subordinated debt securities to you on the dissolution of Citigroup Capital should not be a taxable event to you. However, if Citigroup Capital is characterized for United States federal income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation at the time it is dissolved or if there is a change in law, the distribution of junior subordinated debt securities may be a taxable event to you.

THERE MAY BE NO TRADING MARKET FOR THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES IF CITIGROUP CAPITAL DISTRIBUTES THEM TO YOU.

Although Citigroup will use its best efforts to list the junior subordinated debt securities on the NYSE, or any other exchange on which the capital securities are then listed, if they are distributed, Citigroup cannot assure you that the junior subordinated debt securities will be approved for listing or that a trading market will exist for those securities.

SINCE YOU HAVE LIMITED VOTING RIGHTS, YOU CANNOT PREVENT THE CITIGROUP CAPITAL TRUSTEES FROM TAKING ACTIONS YOU MAY NOT AGREE WITH.

You will have limited voting rights. In particular, except for the limited exceptions described below, only Citigroup can elect or remove any of Citigroup Capital trustees. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Voting Rights" on page 19.

CITIGROUP INC.

Citigroup is a diversified global financial services holding company whose businesses provide a broad range of financial services to consumer and corporate customers with some 200 million customer accounts doing business in more than 100 countries. Citigroup's activities are conducted through the Global Consumer, Global Corporate and Investment Bank, Private Client Services, Global Investment Management, and Proprietary Investment Activities business segments.

Citigroup is a holding company and services its obligations primarily with dividends and advances that it receives from subsidiaries. Citigroup's subsidiaries that operate in the banking, insurance and securities business can only pay dividends if they are in compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements imposed on them by federal and state bank regulatory authorities, state insurance departments, and securities regulators. 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. Each of Citigroup's major operating subsidiaries finances its operations on a stand-alone basis consistent with its capitalization and ratings.

Under longstanding policy of The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for its subsidiary banks and to commit resources to support such banks. As a result of that policy, Citigroup may be required to commit resources to its subsidiary banks.

Citigroup's principal office is located at 399 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10043, and its telephone number is (212) 559-1000.

USE OF PROCEEDS

All of the net proceeds from the sale of the capital securities will be invested by Citigroup Capital in junior subordinated debt securities of Citigroup. Citigroup will use the proceeds from the sale of the junior subordinated debt securities to Citigroup Capital for general corporate purposes, which may include:

- funding the business of its operating units;

- funding investments in, or extensions of credit or capital contributions to, its subsidiaries;

- financing of possible acquisitions or business expansion, and

- lengthening the average maturity of liabilities, which means that it could reduce its short-term liabilities or refund maturing indebtedness.

In order to fund its businesses, Citigroup expects to incur additional indebtedness in the future. See "Capitalization."

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT; REGULATORY CAPITAL

As discussed above under "Risk Factors -- You Should Not Rely on the Distributions From the Capital Securities Through Their Maturity Date -- Recent Accounting Changes May Give Rise to a Future Regulatory Capital Event That Would Entitle Citigroup to Redeem the Capital Securities," FIN 46R addresses the consolidation rules to be applied to all variable interest entities as of December 31, 2003. Historically, issuer trusts that issued capital securities have been consolidated by their parent companies and the accounts of such issuer trusts have been included in the consolidated financial statements of such parent companies. Accordingly, Citigroup has included capital securities in its consolidated balance sheet in the past, and has included appropriate disclosures about such capital securities and the corresponding guarantees and junior subordinated debentures in the notes to its consolidated financial statements. For financial reporting purposes, Citigroup has recorded distributions on such capital securities in its consolidated statements of income. In addition, capital securities have been treated as eligible for Tier 1 capital treatment by bank holding companies, like Citigroup, under Federal Reserve rules and regulations relating to minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries. Accordingly, the outstanding capital securities of Citigroup's issuer trusts have been treated as Tier 1 capital by Citigroup.

It has been concluded that issuer trusts should no longer be consolidated by their parent companies under FIN 46. As a result, Citigroup no longer consolidates its issuer trusts in preparing its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and has made certain adjustments to its financial statements to reflect the deconsolidation of such issuer trusts. Specifically, Citigroup records its junior subordinated debentures issued to the issuer trusts as liabilities, and records offsetting assets for the cash and common securities received from such issuer trusts in its consolidated balance sheet. For financial reporting purposes, Citigroup records interest expense on the corresponding junior subordinated debentures in its consolidated statements of income. Citigroup does not believe that such adjustments have had a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations as presented in its consolidated financial statements.

Moreover, such deconsolidation could result in a change to the regulatory capital treatment of capital securities issued by Citigroup and other U.S. bank holding companies. Specifically, it is possible that since the issuer trusts are no longer consolidated by Citigroup, the trust preferred securities issued by such issuer trusts would not be accorded Tier 1 capital treatment by the Federal Reserve. Although the Federal Reserve has indicated in the Supervisory Letter that capital securities will continue to be treated as Tier 1 capital until notice is given to the contrary, the Supervisory Letter also indicates that the Federal Reserve will review the regulatory implications of any accounting treatment changes and will provide further guidance if necessary or warranted. In May 2004 the Federal Reserve proposed to revise its regulatory capital guidelines to permit bank holding companies to include in Tier 1 capital trust preferred securities that meet certain criteria even if such securities are not treated as a minority interest in a consolidated subsidiary for accounting and regulatory reporting purposes. The Securities are intended to meet the criteria for Tier 1 capital treatment that are established in the Federal Reserve's proposal. There is no assurance, however, that the proposal will be adopted as proposed. If Tier 1 capital treatment were disallowed, there would be a reduction in Citigroup's consolidated capital ratios. However, Citigroup believes that it would remain "well capitalized" under existing Federal Reserve guidelines.

As of March 31, 2004, approximately $6.35 billion in capital securities were outstanding that Citigroup treated as Tier 1 capital for bank regulatory purposes.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CAPITAL SECURITIES

The capital securities will be issued pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated declaration of trust of Citigroup Capital. The declaration will be qualified as an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. The institutional trustee, JPMorgan Chase Bank, will act as indenture trustee under the declaration for purposes of compliance with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act. The terms of the capital securities will include those stated in the declaration and those made part of the declaration by the Trust Indenture Act. The following summary of the material terms and provisions of the capital securities is not intended to be complete and is qualified by the declaration, the Statutory Trust Act of the State of Delaware and the Trust Indenture Act. A copy of the declaration is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

GENERAL

The declaration authorizes the regular trustees to issue on behalf of Citigroup Capital the common securities and the capital securities. These trust securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the assets of Citigroup Capital. All of the common securities will be owned, directly or indirectly, by Citigroup. The common securities rank equally, and payments will be made on the common securities on a ratable basis, with the capital securities. If a default under the declaration occurs and continues, however, the rights of the holders of the common securities to receive payment of periodic distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise will be subordinated to the rights of the holders of the capital securities. The declaration does not permit the issuance by Citigroup Capital of any securities other than the trust securities or the incurrence of any indebtedness by Citigroup Capital.

Pursuant to the declaration, the institutional trustee will hold title to the junior subordinated debt securities purchased by Citigroup Capital for the benefit of the holders of the trust securities. The payment of distributions out of money held by Citigroup Capital, and payments upon redemption of the capital securities or liquidation of Citigroup Capital out of money held by Citigroup Capital, are guaranteed by Citigroup to the extent described under "Description of Guarantee." The guarantee will be held by JPMorgan Chase Bank, the guarantee trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the capital securities. The guarantee does not cover payment of distributions when Citigroup Capital does not have sufficient available funds to pay such distributions. In such event, the remedy of a holder of capital securities is to:

- vote to direct the institutional trustee to enforce the institutional trustee's rights under the junior subordinated debt securities; or

- if the failure of Citigroup Capital to pay distributions is attributable to the failure of Citigroup to pay interest or principal on the junior subordinated debt securities, sue Citigroup for enforcement of payment to such holder of the principal or interest on the junior subordinated debt securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the capital securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the junior subordinated debt securities.

DISTRIBUTIONS

Distributions on the capital securities will be fixed at a rate per annum of % of the stated liquidation amount of $ per capital security. Distributions not paid when due, or when they would be due if not for any extension period or default by Citigroup on the junior subordinated debt securities, will themselves accumulate additional interest at the annual rate of % thereof compounded . When this prospectus refers to any payment of distributions, distributions include any such interest payable unless otherwise stated. The amount of distributions payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Distributions on the capital securities will be cumulative, will accrue from and including , and will be payable in arrears on of each year, commencing . When, as and if available for payment, distributions will be made by the institutional trustee, except as otherwise described below.

13

The distribution rate and the distribution payment dates and other payment dates for the capital securities will correspond to the interest rate and interest payment dates and other payment dates on the junior subordinated debt securities.

Deferral of Distributions. Citigroup has the right under the indenture to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities for an extension period not exceeding consecutive interest periods during which no interest shall be due and payable. A deferral of interest payments cannot extend, however, beyond the maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities. As a consequence of Citigroup's extension of the interest payment period, distributions on the capital securities would be deferred during any such extended interest payment period. During an extension period, the amount of distributions due to you would continue to accumulate and such deferred distributions will themselves accrue interest. In the event that Citigroup exercises its right to extend an interest payment period, then:

(1) Citigroup 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 relating thereto other than

- repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of Citigroup in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

- as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Citigroup's capital stock for any other class or series of Citigroup's capital stock; or

- the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Citigroup's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; and

(2) Citigroup may not make any payment of interest, principal or premium on, or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by Citigroup that rank equally with or junior to the junior subordinated debt securities.

These restrictions, however, will not apply to any stock dividends paid by Citigroup where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid. Prior to the termination of any extension period, Citigroup may further extend such extension period, so long as such extension period, together with all such previous extension periods, do not exceed consecutive interest periods. An extension period cannot extend, however, beyond the maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities.

Upon the termination of any extension period and the payment of all amounts then due, Citigroup may commence a new extension period, which must comply with the above requirements. Consequently, there could be up to extension periods of varying lengths throughout the term of the junior subordinated debt securities. The regular trustees shall give the holders of the capital securities notice of any extension period upon their receipt of notice thereof from Citigroup. If distributions are deferred, the deferred distributions and accrued interest on such distributions will be paid to holders of record of the capital securities as they appear on the books and records of Citigroup Capital on the record date next following the termination of the related extension period. See "Description of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities -- Interest" and "-- Option to Extend Interest Payment Period."

Payment of Distributions. Distributions on the capital securities will be payable to the extent that Citigroup Capital has funds available for the payment of such distributions in its property account. Citigroup Capital's funds available for distribution to the holders of the capital securities will be limited to payments received from Citigroup on the junior subordinated debt securities. The payment of distributions out of monies held by Citigroup Capital is guaranteed by Citigroup to the extent set forth under "Description of Guarantee." See "Description of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities."

14

Distributions on the capital securities will be payable to the holders named on the securities register of Citigroup Capital at the close of business on the relevant record dates. As long as the capital securities remain in book-entry only form, the record date will be one business day before the distribution dates. Such distributions will be paid through the institutional trustee who will hold amounts received in respect of the junior subordinated debt securities in the property account for the benefit of the holders of the trust securities. Unless any applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of the declaration state otherwise, each such payment will be made as described under "-- Book-Entry Only Issuance" below.

In the event that the capital securities do not continue to remain in book-entry only form, the relevant record dates will conform to the rules of any securities exchange on which the capital securities are listed and, if none, the regular trustees will have the right to select relevant record dates, which will be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the relevant payment dates. In the event that any date on which distributions are to be made on the capital securities is not a business day, then payment of the distributions payable 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, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding business day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such record date. A "business day" means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions in New York City are permitted or required by any applicable law to close.

REDEMPTION OF TRUST SECURITIES

The capital securities have no stated maturity date but will be redeemed upon the maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities. In addition, the capital securities may be redeemed prior to maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities on the dates and to the extent the junior subordinated debt securities are redeemed. See "Description of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities -- Optional Redemption." The junior subordinated debt securities will mature on , 20 , and may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time on or after . The junior subordinated debt securities can also be redeemed at any time, in whole or in part, in certain circumstances upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Regulatory Capital Event.

If required under the Federal Reserve Capital Adequacy Rules, Citigroup will obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York before exercising its redemption rights described in the preceding paragraph.

Upon the maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities, the proceeds of their repayment will simultaneously be applied to redeem all outstanding trust securities at the redemption price. Upon the redemption of the junior subordinated debt securities, whether in whole or in part, either at the option of Citigroup or pursuant to a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Regulatory Capital Event, Citigroup Capital will use the cash it receives upon the redemption to redeem trust securities having an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the junior subordinated debt securities so redeemed at the redemption price. Before such redemption, holders of trust securities will be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice. In the event that fewer than all of the outstanding capital securities are to be redeemed, the capital securities will be redeemed on a ratable basis as described under "-- Book-Entry Only Issuance" below. See "-- Special Event Redemption" and "Description of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities -- Optional Redemption." If a partial redemption of the capital securities resulting from a partial redemption of the junior subordinated debt securities would result in a delisting of the capital securities, Citigroup may only redeem the junior subordinated debt securities in whole.

15

SPECIAL EVENT REDEMPTION

"Tax Event" means that the regular trustees will have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters which states that, as a result of any:

- amendment to, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws or associated regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of the United States; or

- amendment to, or change in, an interpretation or application of such laws or regulations by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority, including the enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial decision or regulatory determination on or after the date of this prospectus,

there is more than an insubstantial risk that:

- Citigroup Capital would be subject to United States federal income tax relating to interest accrued or received on the junior subordinated debt securities;

- interest payable to Citigroup Capital on the junior subordinated debt securities would not be deductible, in whole or in part, by Citigroup for United States federal income tax purposes; or

- Citigroup Capital would be subject to more than a minimal amount of other taxes, duties or other governmental charges.

"Investment Company Event" means that the regular trustees will have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent counsel experienced in such matters which states that, as a result of the occurrence of a change in law or regulation or a written change in interpretation or application of law or regulation by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority, there is more than an insubstantial risk that Citigroup Capital is or will be considered an "investment company" which is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act").

"Regulatory Capital Event" means that if Citigroup determines, based on an opinion of counsel experienced in such matters, who may be an employee of Citigroup or any of its affiliates, that, as a result of

- any amendment to, clarification of or change (including any announced prospective change) in applicable laws or regulations or official interpretations thereof or policies with respect thereto or

- any official administrative pronouncement or judicial decision interpreting or applying such laws or regulations,

there is more than an insubstantial risk that the capital securities will no longer constitute Tier 1 capital of Citigroup or any bank holding company of which Citigroup is a subsidiary for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines or policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or its successor as Citigroup's primary federal banking regulator.

A Regulatory Capital Event would include a change in the regulatory capital treatment of the capital securities as a result of recent accounting changes affecting the criteria for consolidation of variable interest entities such as Citigroup Capital under FIN 46R. See "Accounting Treatment; Regulatory Capital" on page 11.

This prospectus refers to a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Regulatory Capital Event as a "Special Event." Provided that Citigroup obtains any required regulatory approval, if a Special Event occurs and continues, Citigroup may, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, redeem the junior subordinated debt securities, in whole or in part, for cash within 90 days following the occurrence of such Special Event. Following such redemption, trust securities with an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the junior subordinated debt securities so redeemed shall be redeemed by Citigroup Capital at the redemption price on a ratable basis. If, however, at the time there is available to Citigroup or Citigroup Capital the opportunity to eliminate, within such 90-day period, the

16

Special Event by taking some ministerial action, such as filing a form or making an election or pursuing some other similar reasonable measure that will have no adverse effect on Citigroup Capital, Citigroup or the holders of the trust securities, then Citigroup or Citigroup Capital will pursue such measure instead of redemption.

DISTRIBUTION OF THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES

Citigroup will have the right at any time to dissolve Citigroup Capital. After satisfaction of the liabilities of creditors of Citigroup Capital as provided by applicable law, Citigroup Capital may cause junior subordinated debt securities to be distributed to the holders of the capital and common securities in an aggregate stated principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of such securities then outstanding. Prior to any such dissolution, Citigroup will obtain any required regulatory approvals.

If the junior subordinated debt securities are distributed to the holders of the capital securities, Citigroup will use its best efforts to cause the junior subordinated debt securities to be listed on the NYSE or on such other exchange as the capital securities are then listed.

After the date for any distribution of junior subordinated debt securities upon dissolution of Citigroup Capital:

- the capital securities will no longer be deemed to be outstanding;

- the securities depositary or its nominee, as the record holder of the capital securities, will receive a registered global certificate or certificates representing the junior subordinated debt securities to be delivered upon such distribution; and

- any certificates representing capital securities not held by the depositary or its nominee will be deemed to represent junior subordinated debt securities having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate identical to the distribution rate of, and with accrued and unpaid interest equal to accrued and unpaid distributions on, such capital securities until such certificates are presented to Citigroup or its agent for transfer or reissuance.

There can be no assurance as to the market prices for either the capital securities or the junior subordinated debt securities that may be distributed in exchange for the capital securities if a dissolution and liquidation of Citigroup Capital were to occur. This means that the capital securities that an investor may purchase, whether pursuant to the offer made by this prospectus or in the secondary market, or the junior subordinated debt securities that an investor may receive if a dissolution and liquidation of Citigroup Capital were to occur, may trade at a discount to the price that the investor paid to purchase the capital securities.

REDEMPTION PROCEDURES

Citigroup Capital may not redeem fewer than all of the outstanding capital securities unless all accrued and unpaid distributions have been paid on all capital securities for all distribution periods terminating on or prior to the date of redemption.

If (1) Citigroup Capital gives an irrevocable notice of redemption of the capital securities, and (2) if Citigroup has paid to the institutional trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption or maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities, then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the institutional trustee will irrevocably deposit with the depositary funds sufficient to pay the applicable redemption price. Citigroup Capital will also give the depositary irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the redemption price to the holders of the capital securities.

Once notice of redemption is given and redemption funds are deposited, distributions will cease to accrue and all rights of holders of capital securities called for redemption will cease, except the right of the holders to receive the redemption price but without interest on such redemption price. If any redemption date is not a business day, then payment of the redemption price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a business day, without any interest or other payment in respect of any

17

such delay. However, if such business day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding business day.

If payment of the redemption price for any capital securities is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by Citigroup Capital, or by Citigroup pursuant to the guarantee, distributions on such capital securities will continue to accrue at the then applicable rate from the original redemption date to the date of payment. In this case, the actual payment date will be the redemption date for purposes of calculating the redemption price. See "-- Book-Entry Only Issuance."

In the event that fewer than all of the outstanding capital securities are to be redeemed, the capital securities will be redeemed in accordance with the depositary's standard procedures. See "-- Book-Entry Only Issuance."

Citigroup or its subsidiaries may, at any time, and from time to time, purchase outstanding capital securities by tender, in the open market or by private agreement, provided that they comply with United States federal securities laws and any other applicable laws.

LIQUIDATION DISTRIBUTION UPON DISSOLUTION

This prospectus refers to any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or termination of Citigroup Capital as a "liquidation." If a liquidation occurs, the holders of the capital securities will be entitled to receive out of the assets of Citigroup Capital, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors, distributions in an amount equal to the aggregate of the stated liquidation amount of $ per capital security plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of payment. However, such holders will not receive such distribution if Citigroup instead distributes on a ratable basis to the holders of the capital securities junior subordinated debt securities in an aggregate stated principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate identical to the distribution rate of, and with accrued and unpaid interest equal to accrued and unpaid distributions on, the capital securities outstanding at such time. See "-- Distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities."

If this distribution can be paid only in part because Citigroup Capital has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate distribution, then the amounts payable directly by Citigroup Capital on the capital securities shall be paid on a ratable basis. The holders of the common securities will be entitled to receive distributions upon any such liquidation on a ratable basis with the holders of the capital securities. However, if a declaration default has occurred and is continuing, the capital securities will have a preference over the common securities with regard to such distributions.

Pursuant to the declaration, Citigroup Capital will terminate:

(1) on , 20 , the expiration of the term of Citigroup Capital;

(2) upon the bankruptcy of Citigroup or the holder of the common securities;

(3) upon (a) the filing of a certificate of dissolution or its equivalent regarding the holder of the common securities or Citigroup, the filing of a certificate of cancellation regarding Citigroup Capital, or the revocation of the charter of the holder of the common securities or Citigroup and (b) the expiration of 90 days after the date of revocation without a reinstatement thereof;

(4) upon the distribution of junior subordinated debt securities to holders of capital securities;

(5) upon the entry of a decree of a judicial dissolution of the holder of the common securities, Citigroup or Citigroup Capital; or

(6) upon the redemption of all the trust securities.

DECLARATION DEFAULTS

An "indenture default" is a default under the indenture and also constitutes a "declaration default," which is an event of default under the declaration relating to the trust securities. Pursuant to the

18

declaration, however, the holder of the common securities will be deemed to have waived any declaration defaults relating to the common securities until all declaration defaults relating to the capital securities have been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated. Until such declaration defaults relating to the capital securities have been so cured, waived, or otherwise eliminated, the institutional trustee will be deemed to be acting solely on behalf of the holders of the capital securities. Only the holders of the capital securities will have the right to direct the institutional trustee as to matters under the declaration, and therefore the indenture. In the event that any declaration default relating to the capital securities is waived by the holders of the capital securities as provided in the declaration, the holders of common securities pursuant to the declaration have agreed that such waiver also constitutes a waiver of such declaration default relating to the common securities for all purposes under the declaration without any further act, vote or consent of the holders of common securities. See "-- Voting Rights."

If the institutional trustee fails to enforce its rights under the junior subordinated debt securities, any holder of capital securities may directly institute a legal proceeding against Citigroup to enforce these rights without first suing the institutional trustee or any other person or entity. If a declaration default has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of Citigroup to pay interest or principal on the junior subordinated debt securities on the date such interest or principal is otherwise payable, or in the case of redemption, the redemption date, then a holder of capital securities may also bring a direct action. This means that a holder may directly sue for enforcement of payment to such holder of the principal of or interest on the junior subordinated debt securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the capital securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the junior subordinated debt securities. Such holder need not first (1) direct the institutional trustee to enforce the terms of the junior subordinated debt securities or (2) sue Citigroup to enforce the institutional trustee's rights under the junior subordinated debt securities.

In connection with such direct action, Citigroup will be subrogated to the rights of such holder of capital securities under the declaration to the extent of any payment made by Citigroup to such holder of capital securities in such direct action. This means that Citigroup will be entitled to payment of amounts that a holder of capital securities receives in respect of an unpaid distribution that resulted in the bringing of a direct action to the extent that such holder receives or has already received full payment relating to such unpaid distribution from Citigroup Capital. The holders of capital securities will not be able to exercise directly any other remedy available to the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities.

Upon the occurrence of an indenture event of default, the institutional trustee as the sole holder of the junior subordinated debt securities will have the right under the indenture to declare the principal of and interest on the junior subordinated debt securities to be immediately due and payable. Citigroup and Citigroup Capital are each required to file annually with the institutional trustee an officers' certificate as to its compliance with all conditions and covenants under the declaration.

VOTING RIGHTS

Except as described in this prospectus under "Description of Guarantee -- Modification of Guarantee; Assignment," and except as provided under the Statutory Trust Act, the Trust Indenture Act and as otherwise required by law and the declaration, the holders of the capital securities will have no voting rights.

The holders of a majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the capital securities have the right to direct any proceeding for any remedy available to the institutional trustee so long as the institutional trustee receives the tax opinion discussed below. The holders also have the right to direct the institutional trustee under the declaration to:

(1) direct any proceeding for any remedy available to the indenture trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the indenture trustee;

(2) waive any past indenture event of default that is waivable under
Section 5.6 of the indenture;

19

(3) exercise any right to rescind or annul an acceleration of the maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities; or

(4) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the indenture where such consent is required.

Where a consent or action under the indenture would require the consent or act of holders of more than a majority in principal amount of the junior subordinated debt securities, or a "super majority," then only a super majority may direct the institutional trustee to give such consent or take such action. If the institutional trustee fails to enforce its rights under the junior subordinated debt securities, any record holder of capital securities may directly sue Citigroup to enforce the institutional trustee's rights under the junior subordinated debt securities. The record holder does not have to sue the institutional trustee or any other person or entity before enforcing his rights.

The institutional trustee is required to notify all holders of the capital securities of any notice of default received from the indenture trustee. The notice is required to state that the default also constitutes a declaration default. Except for directing the time, method and place of conducting a proceeding for a remedy available to the institutional trustee, the institutional trustee will not take any of the actions described in clauses (1),
(2), (3) or (4) above unless the institutional trustee receives an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel. The opinion must be to the effect that, as a result of such action, Citigroup Capital will not fail to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

If the consent of the institutional trustee is required under the indenture for any amendment, modification or termination of the indenture, the institutional trustee is required to request the written direction of the holders of the trust securities. Then, the institutional trustee will vote as directed by a majority in liquidation amount of the trust securities voting together as a single class. Where any amendment, modification or termination under the indenture would require the consent of a super majority, however, the institutional trustee may only give such consent at the direction of the holders of the same super majority of the holders of the trust securities. The institutional trustee is not required to take any such action in accordance with the directions of the holders of the trust securities unless the institutional trustee has obtained a tax opinion to the effect described above.

A waiver of an indenture default by the institutional trustee at the direction of the holders of the capital securities will constitute a waiver of the corresponding declaration default.

Any required approval or direction of holders of capital securities may be given at a separate meeting of holders of capital securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the holders of trust securities or by written consent. The regular trustees will mail to each holder of record of capital securities a notice of any meeting at which such holders are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written consent of such holders is to be taken. Each such notice will include a statement setting forth the following information:

- the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken;

- a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought; and

- instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

No vote or consent of the holders of capital securities will be required for Citigroup Capital to redeem and cancel capital securities or distribute junior subordinated debt securities in accordance with the declaration.

Despite the fact that holders of capital securities are entitled to vote or consent under the circumstances described above, any capital securities that are owned at the time by Citigroup or any entity directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with,

20

Citigroup, will not be entitled to vote or consent. Instead, these capital securities will be treated as if they were not outstanding.

The procedures by which holders of capital securities may exercise their voting rights are described below. See "-- Book-Entry Only Issuance."

Holders of the capital securities generally will have no rights to appoint or remove the regular trustees. Instead, these trustees may be appointed, removed or replaced solely by Citigroup as the indirect or direct holder of all of the common securities.

MODIFICATION OF THE DECLARATION

The declaration may be modified and amended if approved by the regular trustees, and in certain circumstances, the institutional trustee and the Delaware trustee. If, however, any proposed amendment provides for, or the regular trustees otherwise propose to effect,

(1) any action that would adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the trust securities, whether by way of amendment to the declaration or otherwise or

(2) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of Citigroup Capital other than pursuant to the terms of the declaration,

then the holders of the trust securities voting together as a single class will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal. Such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of holders of at least a majority in liquidation amount of the trust securities affected thereby. If, however, any amendment or proposal referred to in clause (1) above would adversely affect only the capital securities or only the common securities, then only holders of the affected class will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal. Such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of holders of a majority in liquidation amount of such class of trust securities.

Despite the foregoing, no amendment or modification may be made to the declaration if such amendment or modification would

(1) cause Citigroup Capital to be classified for United States federal income tax purposes as other than a grantor trust,

(2) reduce or otherwise adversely affect the powers of the institutional trustee or

(3) cause Citigroup Capital to be deemed an "investment company" which is required to be registered under the 1940 Act.

MERGERS, CONSOLIDATIONS OR AMALGAMATIONS

Citigroup Capital may not consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety, to any corporation or other body except as described below. Citigroup Capital may, with the consent of the regular trustees and without the consent of the holders of the trust securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by a trust organized as such under the laws of any State, provided that:

(1) such successor entity either

(a) expressly assumes all of the obligations of Citigroup Capital under the trust securities or

(b) substitutes for the capital securities other successor securities having substantially the same terms as the capital securities, so long as the successor securities rank the same as the capital securities rank regarding distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise;

21

(2) Citigroup expressly acknowledges a trustee of such successor entity possessing the same powers and duties as the institutional trustee, in its capacity as the holder of the junior subordinated debt securities;

(3) the capital securities or any successor securities are listed, or any successor securities will be listed upon notification of issuance, on any national securities exchange or with another organization on which the capital securities are then listed or quoted;

(4) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement does not cause the capital securities, including any successor securities, to be downgraded by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization;

(5) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the trust securities, including any successor securities, in any material respect, other than in connection with any dilution of the holders' interest in the new entity;

(6) such successor entity has a purpose identical to that of Citigroup Capital;

(7) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement, Citigroup Capital has received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent counsel to Citigroup Capital experienced in such matters to the effect that

(a) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the trust securities, including any successor securities, in any material respect, other than in connection with any dilution of the holders' interest in the new entity;

(b) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement, neither Citigroup Capital nor such successor entity will be required to register as an "investment company" under the 1940 Act; and

(c) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement, Citigroup Capital or such successor entity will continue to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes; and

(8) Citigroup guarantees the obligations of such successor entity under the successor securities at least to the extent provided by the guarantee.

Despite the foregoing, Citigroup Capital will not, except with the consent of holders of 100% in liquidation amount of the trust securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by any other entity or permit any other entity to consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or replace it, if in the opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters, such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or replacement would cause Citigroup Capital or the successor entity to be classified as other than a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

BOOK-ENTRY ONLY ISSUANCE

The capital securities will be book-entry securities. Upon issuance, all book-entry securities will be represented by one or more fully registered global capital securities, without distribution coupons. Each global capital security will be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, a securities depositary, and will be registered in the name of DTC or a nominee of DTC. DTC will thus be the only registered holder of these capital securities and will be considered the sole owner of the capital securities for purposes of the declaration.

Purchasers of capital securities may hold interests in the global capital securities only through DTC, if they are a participant in the DTC system. Purchasers may also hold interests through a securities intermediary -- banks, brokerage houses and other institutions that maintain securities accounts for customers -- that has an account with DTC or its nominee ("Participants"). DTC will maintain accounts

22

showing the capital security holdings of its participants, and these participants will in turn maintain accounts showing the capital security holdings of their customers. Some of these customers may themselves be securities intermediaries holding capital securities for their customers. Thus, each beneficial owner of a book-entry capital security will hold that capital security indirectly through a hierarchy of intermediaries, with DTC at the "top" and the beneficial owner's own securities intermediary at the "bottom."

The capital securities of each beneficial owner of a book-entry security will be evidenced solely by entries on the books of the beneficial owner's securities intermediary. The actual purchaser of the capital securities will generally not be entitled to have the capital securities represented by the global securities registered in its name and will not be considered the owner under the declaration. In most cases, a beneficial owner will also not be able to obtain a paper certificate evidencing the holder's ownership of capital securities. The book-entry system for holding capital securities eliminates the need for physical movement of certificates and is the system through which most publicly traded common stock is held in the United States. However, the laws of some jurisdictions require some purchasers of securities to take physical delivery of their securities in definitive form. These laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge book-entry securities.

In this prospectus, for book-entry capital securities, references to actions taken by capital security holders will mean actions taken by DTC upon instructions from its participants, and references to payments and notices of redemption to capital security holders will mean payments and notices of redemption to DTC as the registered holder of the capital securities for distribution to participants in accordance with DTC's procedures.

A beneficial owner of book-entry securities represented by a global capital security may exchange the securities for definitive (paper) capital securities only if:

(a) DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such global capital security and Citigroup is unable to find a qualified replacement for DTC within 90 days;

(b) at any time DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act; or

(c) Citigroup in its sole discretion decides to allow some or all book-entry securities to be exchangeable for definitive capital securities in registered form.

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, any global capital security that is exchangeable will be exchangeable in whole for definitive notes in registered form, with the same terms and of an equal aggregate principal amount, in denominations of $ and whole multiples of $ . Definitive capital securities will be registered in the name or names of the person or persons specified by DTC in a written instruction to the registrar of the securities. DTC may base its written instruction upon directions it receives from its participants.

DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York banking law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered under Section 17A of the Exchange Act. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

Citigroup and the regular trustees will not have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interest in the book-entry securities or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to the beneficial ownership interests.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depositary with respect to the capital securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to Citigroup Capital. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depositary is not obtained, capital securities certificates are required to be printed and delivered. Additionally, the regular trustees, with the consent of Citigroup, may decide to discontinue use of

23

the system of book-entry transfers through DTC or any successor depositary with respect to the capital securities. In that event, certificates for the capital securities will be printed and delivered.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that Citigroup and Citigroup Capital believe to be reliable, but neither Citigroup nor Citigroup Capital takes responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE INSTITUTIONAL TRUSTEE

Prior to the occurrence of a default relating to the trust securities, the institutional trustee undertakes to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in the declaration. After a default, the institutional trustee will exercise the same degree of care as a prudent individual would exercise in the conduct of his or her own affairs. The institutional trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of the powers vested in it by the declaration at the request of any holder of capital securities unless offered reasonable indemnity by such holder against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred thereby. Despite the foregoing, the holders of capital securities will not be required to offer such indemnity in the event such holders, by exercising their voting rights, direct the institutional trustee to take any action following a declaration default.

PAYING AGENT

In the event that the capital securities do not remain in book-entry only form, the following provisions will apply:

- the institutional trustee will act as paying agent and may designate an additional or substitute paying agent at any time;

- registration of transfers of capital securities will be effected without charge by or on behalf of Citigroup Capital, but upon payment, with the giving of such indemnity as Citigroup Capital or Citigroup may require, in respect of any tax or other government charges that may be imposed in relation to it; and

- Citigroup Capital will not be required to register or cause to be registered the transfer of capital securities after such capital securities have been called for redemption.

GOVERNING LAW

The declaration and the capital securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Delaware.

MISCELLANEOUS

The regular trustees are authorized and directed to operate Citigroup Capital in such a way so that Citigroup Capital will not be required to register as an "investment company" under the 1940 Act or be characterized as other than a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. Citigroup is authorized and directed to conduct its affairs so that the junior subordinated debt securities will be treated as indebtedness of Citigroup for United States federal income tax purposes. In this connection, Citigroup and the regular trustees are authorized to take any action, not inconsistent with applicable law, the certificate of trust of Citigroup Capital or the certificate of incorporation of Citigroup, that each of Citigroup and the regular trustees determine in their discretion to be necessary or desirable to achieve such ends, as long as such action does not adversely affect the interests of the holders of the capital securities or vary the terms of the capital securities in any material way.

Holders of the capital securities have no preemptive rights.

24

DESCRIPTION OF THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES

Set forth below is a description of the specific terms of the junior subordinated debt securities in which Citigroup Capital will invest the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the trust securities. The following description is not intended to be complete and is qualified by the indenture, dated as of July 23, 2004, between Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as the indenture trustee, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and by the Trust Indenture Act. Several capitalized terms used herein are defined in the indenture. 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.

Under circumstances discussed more fully below involving the dissolution of Citigroup Capital, provided that any required regulatory approval is obtained, junior subordinated debt securities will be distributed to the holders of the trust securities in liquidation of Citigroup Capital. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities."

If the junior subordinated debt securities are distributed to the holders of the capital securities, Citigroup will use its best efforts to have the junior subordinated debt securities listed on the NYSE or on such other exchange on which the capital securities are then listed.

GENERAL

The junior subordinated debt securities will be issued as unsecured debt under the indenture and will be limited in aggregate principal amount to approximately $ . This amount is the sum of the aggregate stated liquidation amount of the capital securities and the capital contributed by Citigroup to Citigroup Capital in exchange for the common securities. (Section 3.1)

The entire principal amount of the junior subordinated debt securities will mature and become due and payable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon including compound interest (as defined herein) and any additional interest (as defined herein), on , 20 .

If junior subordinated debt securities are distributed to holders of capital securities in liquidation of such holders' interests in Citigroup Capital, such junior subordinated debt securities will initially be issued in the form of one or more global securities (as described below). As described in this prospectus, under limited circumstances, junior subordinated debt securities may be issued in certificated form in exchange for a global security. In the event that junior subordinated debt securities are issued in certificated form, such junior subordinated debt securities will be in denominations of $ and integral multiples thereof and may be transferred or exchanged at the offices described below. Payments on junior subordinated debt securities issued as a global security will be made to DTC, to a successor depositary or, in the event that no depositary is used, to a paying agent for the junior subordinated debt securities. In the event junior subordinated debt securities are issued in certificated form, principal and interest will be payable, the transfer of the junior subordinated debt securities will be registrable and junior subordinated debt securities will be exchangeable for junior subordinated debt securities of other denominations of a like aggregate principal amount at the corporate trust office of the indenture trustee in New York, New York. Payment of interest may be made at the option of Citigroup by check mailed to the address of the persons entitled thereto. See "-- Book-Entry and Settlement."

Citigroup does not intend to issue the junior subordinated debt securities to anyone other than Citigroup Capital.

There are no covenants or provisions in the indenture that would afford the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities protection in the event of a highly leveraged transaction, reorganization, restructuring, merger or similar transaction involving Citigroup that may adversely affect such holders.

25

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS

The indenture provides that Citigroup will not consolidate or merge with another corporation or convey, transfer or lease its assets substantially as an entirety unless:

- the successor is a corporation organized in the United States and expressly assumes the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on all junior subordinated debt securities issued thereunder and the performance of every other covenant of the indenture on the part of Citigroup; and

- immediately thereafter no default and no event which, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a default, shall have happened and be continuing.

Upon any such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, the successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for Citigroup under the indenture. Thereafter the predecessor corporation shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under the indenture and the junior subordinated debt securities. (Sections 8.1 and 8.2)

SUBORDINATION

The indenture provides that the junior subordinated debt securities are subordinated and junior in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness (as defined below) of Citigroup. This means that no payment of principal, including redemption payments, premium, if any, or interest on the junior subordinated debt securities may be made if:

- any Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup has not been paid when due and any applicable grace period relating to such default has ended and such default has not been cured or been waived or ceased to exist; or

- the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup has been accelerated because of a default.

Upon any payment by Citigroup or distribution of assets of Citigroup to creditors upon any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all principal, premium, if any, and interest due or to become due on all Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup must be paid in full before the holders of junior subordinated debt securities are entitled to receive or retain any payment. Upon satisfaction of all claims related to all Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup then outstanding, the rights of the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities will be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup to receive payments or distributions applicable to Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the junior subordinated debt securities are paid in full.

The term "Senior Indebtedness" means, with respect to Citigroup:

(1) the principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of (a) indebtedness for money borrowed and (b) indebtedness evidenced by securities, notes, debentures, bonds or other similar instruments issued by Citigroup;

(2) all capital lease obligations of Citigroup;

(3) all obligations of Citigroup issued or assumed as the deferred purchase price of property, all conditional sale obligations of Citigroup and all obligations of Citigroup under any conditional sale or title retention agreement, but excluding trade accounts payable arising in the ordinary course of business;

(4) all obligations, contingent or otherwise, of Citigroup in respect of any letters of credit, bankers acceptance, security purchase facilities or similar credit transactions;

(5) all obligations of Citigroup in respect of interest rate swap, cap or other agreements, interest rate future or option contracts, currency swap agreements, currency future or option contracts and other similar agreements;

26

(6) all obligations of the type referred to in clauses (1) through (5) above of other persons for the payment of which Citigroup is responsible or liable as obligor, guarantor or otherwise; and

(7) all obligations of the type referred to in clauses (1) through (6) above of other persons secured by any lien on any property or asset of Citigroup, whether or not such obligation is assumed by Citigroup

except that Senior Indebtedness will not include

(A) any indebtedness issued under this indenture;

(B) any indebtedness issued to a Citigroup Trust before May 31, 2004 under the indenture dated as of October 7, 1996, between Citigroup and JP Morgan Chase Bank as supplemented (the "prior junior subordinated debt indenture");

(C) any guarantee entered into by Citigroup before May 31, 2004 in respect of any preferred securities, capital securities or preference stock of a Citigroup Trust to which Citigroup issued any indebtedness under the prior junior subordinated debt indenture; and

(D) any indebtedness or any guarantee that is by its terms subordinated to, or ranks equally with, the junior subordinated debt securities and the issuance of which (x) has received the concurrence or approval of the staff of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or the staff of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or (y) does not at the time of issuance prevent the junior subordinated debt securities from qualifying for Tier 1 capital treatment (irrespective of any limits on the amount of Citigroup's Tier 1 capital) under the applicable capital adequacy guidelines, regulations, policies or published interpretations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

"Citigroup Trust" means each of Citigroup Capital II, Citigroup Capital VI, Citigroup Capital VII, Citigroup Capital VIII, Citigroup Capital IX, Citigroup Capital X, Citigroup Capital XI, Citigroup Capital XII and Citigroup Capital XIII or any other similar trust created for the purpose of issuing preferred securities in connection with the issuances of junior subordinated debt securities under the indenture.

Such Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior Indebtedness and be entitled to the benefits of these subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment, modification or waiver of any term of such Senior Indebtedness.

The indenture does not limit the aggregate amount of Senior Indebtedness that may be issued by Citigroup.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

Citigroup shall have the right to redeem the junior subordinated debt securities, in whole or in part, from time to time, on or after , or at any time upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Regulatory Capital Event, as described above, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid interest, including any additional interest (as described below), to the redemption date. If a partial redemption of the capital securities resulting from a partial redemption of the junior subordinated debt securities would result in the delisting of the capital securities, Citigroup may only redeem the junior subordinated debt securities in whole. (Section 11.2) Citigroup may need regulatory approval to redeem the junior subordinated debt securities. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Special Event Redemption."

INTEREST

The junior subordinated debt securities will bear interest at the annual rate of %, from and including the original date of issuance, payable in arrears on of each year, commencing
. Each date on which interest is payable is called an "interest payment date."

27

Interest will be paid to the person in whose name such junior subordinated debt security is registered, with limited exceptions, at the close of business on the business day preceding such interest payment date. In the event the junior subordinated debt securities shall not continue to remain in book-entry only form, Citigroup shall have the right to select record dates, which shall be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the interest payment date.

The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full period will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on the junior subordinated debt securities is not a business day, then payment of the interest payable 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 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.

OPTION TO EXTEND INTEREST PAYMENT PERIOD

Citigroup can defer interest payments by extending the interest payment period for a period not exceeding consecutive periods. However, no extension period may extend beyond the maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities. At the end of such extension period, Citigroup will pay all interest then accrued and unpaid, including any additional interest as described under "-- Additional Interest" below, together with interest thereon compounded at the rate specified for the junior subordinated debt securities to the extent permitted by applicable law. During any such extension period:

- Citigroup will 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

- repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of Citigroup in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

- as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Citigroup's capital stock for any other class or series of Citigroup's capital stock; or

- the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Citigroup's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; and

- Citigroup will not make any payment of interest, principal or premium on, or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by Citigroup which rank equally with or junior to the junior subordinated debt securities.

The foregoing, however, will not apply to any stock dividends paid by Citigroup where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid. (Section 13.3) Prior to the termination of any extension period, Citigroup may further defer payments of interest by extending such extension period. Such extension period, including all such previous and further extensions, however, may not exceed consecutive interest periods, including the interest period in which notice of such extension period is given. No extension period, however, may extend beyond the maturity of the junior subordinated debt securities. Upon the termination of any extension period and the payment of all amounts then due, Citigroup may commence a new extension period, if consistent with the terms set forth in this section. No interest during an extension period, except at the end of such period, shall be due and payable. However, Citigroup has the right to prepay accrued interest during an extension period.

28

Citigroup has no present intention of exercising its right to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period on the junior subordinated debt securities. If the institutional trustee is the sole holder of the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup will give the regular trustees and the institutional trustee notice of its selection of such extension period one business day prior to the earlier of

(1) the date distributions on the capital securities would be payable, if not for such extension period, or

(2) the date the regular trustees are required to give notice to the NYSE or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to holders of the capital securities of the record date or the date such distributions would be payable, if not for such extension period, but in any event at least one business day prior to such record date.

The regular trustees will give notice of Citigroup's selection of such extension period to the holders of the capital securities. If the institutional trustee is not the sole holder of the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup will give the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities notice of its selection of such extension period ten business days prior to the earlier of

(1) the next succeeding interest payment date or

(2) the date upon which Citigroup is required to give notice to the NYSE or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to holders of the junior subordinated debt securities of the record or payment date of such related interest payment. (Sections 13.1 and 13.2)

ADDITIONAL INTEREST

If at any time Citigroup Capital is required to pay any taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature, other than withholding taxes, imposed by the United States or any other taxing authority, then Citigroup will be required to pay additional interest on the junior subordinated debt securities. The amount of any additional interest will be an amount sufficient so that the net amounts received and retained by Citigroup Capital after paying any such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges will be not less than the amounts Citigroup Capital would have received had no such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges been imposed. This means that Citigroup Capital will be in the same position it would have been if it did not have to pay such taxes, duties, assessments or other charges. (Section 3.10(c)).

INDENTURE EVENTS OF DEFAULT

The indenture provides that the following are events of default relating to the junior subordinated debt securities:

(1) failure to pay in full interest accrued on any junior subordinated debt security upon the conclusion of a period consisting of 20 consecutive quarters commencing with the earliest quarter for which interest (including interest accrued on deferred payments) has not been paid in full and continuance of such failure to pay for a period of 30 days; or

(2) specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, or court appointment of a receiver, liquidator or trustee of Citigroup.

If any indenture event of default shall occur and be continuing, the institutional trustee, as the holder of the junior subordinated debt securities, will have the right to declare the principal of and the interest on the junior subordinated debt securities, including any compound interest and any additional interest, and any other amounts payable under the indenture to be immediately due and payable. The institutional trustee may also enforce its other rights as a creditor relating to the junior subordinated debt securities. (Section 5.2)

29

INDENTURE DEFAULTS

The indenture provides that the following are defaults relating to the junior subordinated debt securities:

(1) an indenture event of default;

(2) a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, any junior subordinated debt security at its maturity;

(3) a default for 30 days in the payment of any installment of interest on any junior subordinated debt security;

(4) a default for 90 days after written notice in the performance of any other covenant in respect of the junior subordinated debt securities;

(5) failure to make any required scheduled installment payment to a sinking fund for 30 days on debt securities of such series; and

(6) Citigroup Capital shall have voluntarily or involuntarily dissolved, wound-up its business or otherwise terminated its existence, except in connection with (i) the distribution of the junior subordinated debt securities to holders of the capital securities in liquidation or redemption of their interests in Citigroup Capital upon a Special Event, (ii) the redemption of all of the outstanding capital securities or (iii) certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations of Citigroup Capital.

There is no right of acceleration with respect to indenture defaults, except for indenture defaults that are indenture events of default. An indenture default also constitutes a declaration default. The holders of capital securities in limited circumstances have the right to direct the institutional trustee to exercise its rights as the holder of the junior subordinated debt securities. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Declaration Defaults" and -- Voting Rights."

Any deferral of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities made in accordance with the provisions described above in "Option to Extend Interest Payment Period" will not constitute a default under the indenture for the junior subordinated debt securities. (Section 5.7)

The indenture trustee may withhold notice to the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities of any default with respect thereto, except in the payment of principal, premium or interest, if it considers such withholding to be in the interests of such holders. (Section 6.2)

Despite the foregoing, if a declaration default has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of Citigroup to pay interest or principal on the junior subordinated debt securities when such interest or principal is payable, Citigroup acknowledges that, in such event, a holder of capital securities may sue for payment on or after the respective due date specified in the junior subordinated debt securities. Citigroup may not amend the declaration to remove this right to bring a direct action without the prior written consent of all of the holders of capital securities of Citigroup Capital. Despite any payment made to such holder of capital securities by Citigroup in connection with a direct action, Citigroup shall remain obligated to pay the principal of or interest on the junior subordinated debt securities held by Citigroup Capital or the institutional trustee of Citigroup Capital. Citigroup shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of such capital securities relating to payments on the capital securities to the extent of any payments made by Citigroup to such holder in any direct action. The holders of capital securities will not be able to exercise directly any other remedy available to the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities.

MODIFICATIONS AND AMENDMENTS

Modifications and amendments to the indenture through a supplemental indenture may be made by Citigroup and the indenture trustee with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the junior subordinated debt securities at the time outstanding. However, no such modification or

30

amendment may, without the consent of the holder of each junior subordinated debt security affected thereby:

(1) modify the terms of payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on such junior subordinated debt securities; or

(2) reduce the percentage of holders of junior subordinated debt securities necessary to modify or amend the indenture or waive compliance by Citigroup with any covenant or past default.

If the junior subordinated debt securities are held by Citigroup Capital or a trustee of Citigroup Capital, such supplemental indenture shall not be effective until the holders of a majority in liquidation preference of trust securities of Citigroup Capital shall have consented to such supplemental indenture. If the consent of the holder of each outstanding junior subordinated debt security is required, such supplemental indenture shall not be effective until each holder of the trust securities of Citigroup Capital shall have consented to such supplemental indenture. (Section 9.2)

DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE

Citigroup may discharge most of its obligations under the indenture to holders of the junior subordinated debt securities if such junior subordinated debt securities have not already been delivered to the indenture trustee for cancellation and either have become due and payable or are by their terms due and payable within one year, or are to be called for redemption within one year. Citigroup discharges its obligations by depositing with the indenture trustee an amount certified to be sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all outstanding junior subordinated debt securities and to make any mandatory scheduled installment payments thereon when due. (Section 4.1)

Unless otherwise specified in this prospectus relating to the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup, at its option:

(1) will be released from any and all obligations in respect of the junior subordinated debt securities, which is known as "defeasance and discharge"; or

(2) need not comply with certain covenants specified herein regarding the junior subordinated debt securities, which is known as "covenant defeasance."

If Citigroup exercises its covenant defeasance option, the failure to comply with any defeased covenant and any default in the applicable resolution of the board of directors or supplemental indenture will no longer be a default under the indenture.

To exercise either its defeasance and discharge or covenant defeasance option, Citigroup must

(1) deposit with the indenture trustee, in trust, cash or U.S. government obligations in an amount sufficient to pay all the principal of and premium, if any, and any interest on the junior subordinated debt securities when such payments are due; and

(2) deliver an opinion of counsel, which, in the case of a defeasance and discharge, must be based upon a ruling or administrative pronouncement of the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), to the effect that the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit or defeasance and will be required to pay U.S. federal income tax in the same manner as if such defeasance had not occurred. (Sections 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4).

When there is a defeasance and discharge, the indenture will no longer govern the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup will no longer be liable for payment and the holders of such junior subordinated debt securities will be entitled only to the deposited funds. When there is a covenant defeasance, however, Citigroup will continue to be obligated for payments when due if the deposited funds are not sufficient to pay the holders.

31

The obligations under the indenture to pay all expenses of Citigroup Capital, to register the transfer or exchange of junior subordinated debt securities, to replace mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen junior subordinated debt securities, and to maintain paying agents and hold monies for payment in trust will continue even if Citigroup exercises its defeasance and discharge or covenant defeasance option.

CONCERNING THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

The indenture trustee has extended substantial credit facilities, the borrowings under which constitute Senior Indebtedness, to Citigroup. Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries also maintain bank accounts, borrow money and have other customary commercial banking or investment banking relationships with the indenture trustee in the ordinary course of business.

BOOK-ENTRY AND SETTLEMENT

If distributed to holders of capital securities in connection with the involuntary or voluntary dissolution, winding-up or liquidation of Citigroup Capital as a result of the occurrence of a Special Event, the junior subordinated debt securities will be issued in the form of one or more global certificates registered in the name of the depositary or its nominee. Each global certificate is referred to as a "global security." Except under the limited circumstances described below under "-- Discontinuance of the Depositary's Services," junior subordinated debt securities represented by a global security will not be exchangeable for, and will not otherwise be issuable as, junior subordinated debt securities in definitive form. The global securities may not be transferred except by the depositary to a nominee of the depositary or by a nominee of the depositary to the depositary or another nominee of the depositary or to a successor depositary or its nominee.

The laws of some jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. These laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge beneficial interests in a global security.

Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of junior subordinated debt securities in definitive form and will not be considered the holders, as defined in the indenture, of the global security for any purpose under the indenture. A global security representing junior subordinated debt securities is only exchangeable for another global security of like denomination and tenor to be registered in the name of the depositary or its nominee or to a successor depositary or its nominee. This means that each beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of the depositary, or if such person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which such person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the indenture.

THE DEPOSITARY

If junior subordinated debt securities are distributed to holders of capital securities in liquidation of such holders' interests in Citigroup Capital, DTC will act as securities depositary for the junior subordinated debt securities. As of the date of this prospectus, the description in this prospectus of DTC's book-entry system and DTC's practices as they relate to purchases, transfers, notices and payments relating to the capital securities apply in all material respects to any debt obligations represented by one or more global securities held by DTC. Citigroup may appoint a successor to DTC or any successor depositary in the event DTC or such successor depositary is unable or unwilling to continue as a depositary for the global securities. For a description of DTC and the specific terms of the depositary arrangements, see "Description of the Capital Securities -- Book-Entry Only Issuance."

None of Citigroup, Citigroup Capital, the indenture trustee, any paying agent and any other agent of Citigroup or the indenture trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a global security for such junior subordinated debt securities or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

32

DISCONTINUANCE OF THE DEPOSITARY'S SERVICES

A global security shall be exchangeable for junior subordinated debt securities registered in the names of persons other than the depositary or its nominee only if:

- the depositary notifies Citigroup that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary for such global security and no successor depositary shall have been appointed;

- the depositary, at any time, ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at which time the depositary is required to be so registered to act as such depositary and no successor depositary shall have been appointed; or

- Citigroup, in its sole discretion, determines that such global security shall be so exchangeable.

Any global security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for junior subordinated debt securities registered in such names as the depositary shall direct. It is expected that such instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from its participants relating to ownership of beneficial interests in such global security.

CERTAIN COVENANTS

If the junior subordinated debt securities are issued to Citigroup Capital or a trustee of such trust in connection with the issuance of trust securities by Citigroup Capital and

(1) there shall have occurred and be continuing a default under the indenture;

(2) Citigroup shall be in default relating to its payment or other obligations under the guarantee; or

(3) Citigroup shall have given notice of its election to defer payments of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities by extending the interest payment period and such period, or any extension of such period, shall be continuing;

then

(a) Citigroup 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

- repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of Citigroup in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

- as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Citigroup's capital stock for any other class or series of Citigroup's capital stock; or

- the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Citigroup's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; and

(b) Citigroup shall not make any payment of interest, principal or premium on, or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by Citigroup that rank equally with or junior to the junior subordinated debt securities.

These restrictions, however, will not apply to any stock dividends paid by Citigroup where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid. (Section 13.3)

So long as the trust securities remain outstanding, Citigroup will covenant to:

- directly or indirectly maintain 100% ownership of the common securities of Citigroup Capital, unless a permitted successor of Citigroup succeeds to its ownership of the common securities;

- not voluntarily dissolve, wind-up or terminate Citigroup Capital, except in connection with

(a) a distribution of junior subordinated debt securities or

33

(b) mergers, consolidations or amalgamations permitted by the declaration;

- timely perform its duties as sponsor of Citigroup Capital; and

- use its reasonable efforts to cause Citigroup Capital to

(a) remain a statutory trust, except in connection with the distribution of junior subordinated debt securities to the holders of trust securities in liquidation of Citigroup Capital, the redemption of all of the trust securities of Citigroup Capital, or mergers, consolidations or amalgamations, each as permitted by the declaration of Citigroup Capital, and

(b) otherwise continue to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. (Section 10.5)

MISCELLANEOUS

The indenture provides that Citigroup will pay all fees and expenses related to:

- the offering of the trust securities and the junior subordinated debt securities;

- the organization, maintenance and dissolution of Citigroup Capital;

- the retention of the regular trustees; and

- the enforcement by the institutional trustee of the rights of the holders of the capital securities.

34

DESCRIPTION OF GUARANTEE

Set forth below is a summary of information concerning the guarantee that will be executed and delivered by Citigroup for the benefit of the holders of capital securities. The guarantee will be qualified as an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. JPMorgan Chase Bank will act as the guarantee trustee. The terms of the guarantee will be those set forth in the guarantee and those made part of the guarantee by the Trust Indenture Act. The summary is not intended to be complete and is qualified in all respects by the provisions of the form of guarantee, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and the Trust Indenture Act. The guarantee will be held by the guarantee trustee for the benefit of the holders of the capital securities.

GENERAL

Pursuant to and to the extent set forth in the guarantee, Citigroup will irrevocably and unconditionally agree to pay in full to the holders of the capital securities, except to the extent paid by Citigroup Capital, as and when due, regardless of any defense, right of set-off or counterclaim that Citigroup Capital may have or assert, the following payments, which are referred to as "guarantee payments," without duplication:

- any accrued and unpaid distributions that are required to be paid on the capital securities, to the extent Citigroup Capital has funds available for such distributions;

- the redemption price of $ per capital security, plus all accrued and unpaid distributions, to the extent Citigroup Capital has funds available for such redemptions, relating to any capital securities called for redemption by Citigroup Capital; and

- upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding-up or termination of Citigroup Capital, other than in connection with the distribution of junior subordinated debt securities to the holders of capital securities or the redemption of all of the capital securities, the lesser of

- the aggregate of the liquidation amount and all accrued and unpaid distributions on the capital securities to the date of payment, or

- the amount of assets of Citigroup Capital remaining for distribution to holders of the capital securities in liquidation of Citigroup Capital.

Citigroup's obligation to make a guarantee payment may be satisfied by direct payment of the required amounts by Citigroup to the holders of capital securities or by causing Citigroup Capital to pay such amounts to such holders.

The guarantee will not apply to any payment of distributions or redemption price, or to payments upon the dissolution, winding-up or termination of Citigroup Capital, except to the extent Citigroup Capital has funds available for such payments. If Citigroup does not make interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup Capital will not pay distributions on the capital securities and will not have funds available for such payments. The guarantee, when taken together with Citigroup's obligations under the junior subordinated debt securities, the indenture and the declaration, including its obligations to pay costs, expenses, debts and liabilities of Citigroup Capital, other than those relating to trust securities, will provide a full and unconditional guarantee on a subordinated basis by Citigroup of payments due on the capital securities. Citigroup's obligations in respect of the guarantee will be subordinated in right of payment to Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup to the same extent that the junior subordinated debt securities are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup. See "Description of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities."

35

IMPORTANT COVENANTS OF CITIGROUP

In the guarantee, Citigroup will covenant that, so long as any capital securities remain outstanding, if there shall have occurred any event that would constitute an event of default under such guarantee or a default under the declaration, then:

- Citigroup 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) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of Citigroup in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

(2) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Citigroup's capital stock for any other class or series of Citigroup's capital stock; or

(3) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Citigroup's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; and

- Citigroup shall not make any payment of interest, principal or premium on, or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by Citigroup which rank equally with or junior to the junior subordinated debt securities.

The above restrictions, however, will not apply to any stock dividends paid by Citigroup where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid.

MODIFICATION OF GUARANTEE; ASSIGNMENT

The guarantee may be amended only with the prior approval of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the outstanding capital securities. No vote will be required, however, for any changes that do not adversely affect the rights of holders of capital securities. All guarantees and agreements contained in the guarantee shall bind the successors, assignees, receivers, trustees and representatives of Citigroup and shall inure to the benefit of the holders of the capital securities then outstanding.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

An event of default under the guarantee will occur upon the failure of Citigroup to perform any of its payment or other obligations required by the guarantee. The holders of a majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the capital securities have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the guarantee trustee in respect of the guarantee or to direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the guarantee trustee under the guarantee.

If the guarantee trustee fails to enforce its rights under the guarantee, any holder of related capital securities may directly sue Citigroup to enforce the guarantee trustee's rights under the guarantee without first suing Citigroup Capital, the guarantee trustee or any other person or entity. A holder of capital securities may also directly sue Citigroup to enforce such holder's right to receive payment under the guarantee without first (1) directing the guarantee trustee to enforce the terms of the guarantee or (2) suing Citigroup Capital or any other person or entity.

Citigroup will be required to provide to the guarantee trustee such documents, reports and information as required by the Trust Indenture Act.

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE GUARANTEE TRUSTEE

Prior to the occurrence of a default relating to the guarantee, the guarantee trustee undertakes to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in the guarantee. After such default, the guarantee

36

trustee will exercise the same degree of care as a prudent individual would exercise in the conduct of his or her own affairs. Provided that the foregoing requirements have been met, the guarantee trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of the powers vested in it by the guarantee at the request of any holder of capital securities unless it is offered reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred thereby.

TERMINATION OF THE GUARANTEE

The guarantee will terminate as to the capital securities upon full payment of the redemption price of all capital securities, upon distribution of the junior subordinated debt securities to the holders of the capital securities or upon full payment of the amounts payable in accordance with the declaration upon liquidation of Citigroup Capital. The guarantee will continue to be effective or will be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any holder of capital securities must restore payment of any sums paid under the capital securities or the guarantee.

STATUS OF THE GUARANTEE

The guarantee will constitute an unsecured obligation of Citigroup and will rank:

- junior in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness of Citigroup to the extent provided in the indenture; and

- equally with all other trust preferred security guarantees that Citigroup issues.

The terms of the capital securities provide that each holder of capital securities by acceptance of such securities agrees to the subordination provisions and other terms of the guarantee.

The guarantee will constitute a guarantee of payment and not of collection. This means that the guaranteed party may directly sue the guarantor to enforce its rights under the guarantee without suing any other person or entity.

GOVERNING LAW

The guarantee will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York.

37

EFFECT OF OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE
JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES AND THE GUARANTEE

As set forth in the declaration, the sole purpose of Citigroup Capital is to issue the trust securities and to invest the proceeds from such issuance in the junior subordinated debt securities.

As long as payments of interest and other payments are made when due on the junior subordinated debt securities, such payments will be sufficient to cover the distributions and payments due on the trust securities. This is due to the following factors:

- the aggregate principal amount of junior subordinated debt securities will be equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of the trust securities;

- the interest rate and the interest and other payment dates on the junior subordinated debt securities will match the distribution rate and distribution and other payment dates for the capital securities;

- under the indenture, Citigroup will pay, and Citigroup Capital will not be obligated to pay, directly or indirectly, all costs, expenses, debts and obligations of Citigroup Capital other than those relating to the trust securities; and

- the declaration further provides that the regular trustees may not cause or permit Citigroup Capital to engage in any activity that is not consistent with the purposes of Citigroup Capital.

Payments of distributions, to the extent there are available funds, and other payments due on the capital securities, to the extent there are available funds, are guaranteed by Citigroup to the extent described in this prospectus. If Citigroup does not make interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, Citigroup Capital will not have sufficient funds to pay distributions on the capital securities. The guarantee is a subordinated guarantee in relation to the capital securities. The guarantee does not apply to any payment of distributions unless and until Citigroup Capital has sufficient funds for the payment of such distributions. See "Description of Guarantee."

The guarantee covers the payment of distributions and other payments on the capital securities only if and to the extent that Citigroup has made a payment of interest or principal or other payments on the junior subordinated debt securities. The guarantee, when taken together with Citigroup's obligations under the junior subordinated debt securities and the indenture and its obligations under the declaration, will provide a full and unconditional guarantee of distributions, redemption payments and liquidation payments on the capital securities.

If Citigroup fails to make interest or other payments on the junior subordinated debt securities when due, taking account of any extension period, the declaration allows the holders of the capital securities to direct the institutional trustee to enforce its rights under the junior subordinated debt securities. If the institutional trustee fails to enforce these rights, any holder of capital securities may directly sue Citigroup to enforce such rights without first suing the institutional trustee or any other person or entity. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Declaration Events of Default" and "-- Voting Rights."

A holder of capital securities may institute a direct action if a declaration default has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of Citigroup to pay interest or principal on the junior subordinated debt securities on the date such interest or principal is otherwise payable. A direct action may be brought without first (1) directing the institutional trustee to enforce the terms of the junior subordinated debt securities or (2) suing Citigroup to enforce the institutional trustee's rights under the junior subordinated debt securities. In connection with such direct action, Citigroup will be subrogated to the rights of such holder of capital securities under the declaration to the extent of any payment made by Citigroup to such holder of capital securities. Consequently, Citigroup will be entitled to payment of amounts that a holder of capital securities receives in respect of an unpaid distribution to the extent that such holder receives or has already received full payment relating to such unpaid distribution from Citigroup Capital.

38

Citigroup acknowledges that the guarantee trustee will enforce the guarantee on behalf of the holders of the capital securities. If Citigroup fails to make payments under the guarantee, the guarantee allows the holders of the capital securities to direct the guarantee trustee to enforce its rights thereunder. If the guarantee trustee fails to enforce the guarantee, any holder of capital securities may directly sue Citigroup to enforce the guarantee trustee's rights under the guarantee. Such holder need not first sue Citigroup Capital, the guarantee trustee, or any other person or entity. A holder of capital securities may also directly sue Citigroup to enforce such holder's right to receive payment under the guarantee. Such holder need not first (1) direct the guarantee trustee to enforce the terms of the guarantee or (2) sue Citigroup Capital or any other person or entity.

Citigroup and Citigroup Capital believe that the above mechanisms and obligations, taken together, are equivalent to a full and unconditional guarantee by Citigroup of payments due on the capital securities. See "Description of Guarantee -- General."

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

GENERAL

The following is a general summary of United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of capital securities. The summary is based on:

- laws;

- regulations;

- rulings; and

- decisions now in effect,

all of which may change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary deals only with a beneficial owner of capital securities that purchases the capital securities upon original issuance at the initial issue price and who will hold the capital securities as capital assets. This summary does not address all of the United States federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a beneficial owner of notes. For example, this summary does not address tax considerations applicable to investors to whom special tax rules may apply, including:

- banks or other financial institutions;

- tax-exempt entities;

- insurance companies;

- regulated investment companies;

- common trust funds;

- entities that are treated for United States federal income tax purposes as partnerships or other pass-through entities;

- controlled foreign corporations;

- dealers in securities or currencies;

- persons that will hold the capital securities as a hedge or in order to hedge against currency risk or as a part of an integrated investment, including a straddle or conversion transaction, comprised of a capital security and one or more other positions; or

- United States holders (as defined below) that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.

As used in this summary, a "United States holder" is a beneficial owner of capital securities who is:

- a citizen or resident of the United States;

- a corporation or other entity treated as a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;

- an estate, if United States federal income taxation is applicable to the income of such estate regardless of the income's source; or

- a trust if a United States court is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all of the trust's substantial decisions.

As used in this summary, the term "non-United States holder" means a beneficial owner of capital securities who is not a United States holder and the term "United States" means the United States of America, including the fifty states and the District of Columbia, but excluding its territories and possessions.

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors in determining the tax consequences to them of purchasing, holding and disposing of the capital securities, including the application to their particular situation of the United States federal income tax considerations discussed below, as well as the application of state, local, foreign or other tax laws.

CLASSIFICATION OF THE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBT SECURITIES

In connection with the issuance of the junior subordinated debt securities, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, special tax counsel to Citigroup and Citigroup Capital, will render its opinion generally to the effect that, under then current law and assuming full compliance with the terms of the indenture and other relevant documents, and based on the facts and assumptions contained in such opinion, the junior subordinated debt securities held by Citigroup Capital will be classified for United States federal income tax purposes as indebtedness of Citigroup.

CLASSIFICATION OF CITIGROUP CAPITAL

In connection with the issuance of the capital securities, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP will render its opinion generally to the effect that, under then current law and assuming full compliance with the terms of the declaration, the indenture and other relevant documents, and based on the facts and assumptions contained in such opinion, Citigroup Capital will be classified for United States federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust and not as an association taxable as a corporation. Accordingly, for United States federal income tax purposes, each holder of capital securities generally will be considered the owner of an undivided interest in the junior subordinated debt securities. Each United States holder will be required to include in its gross income all interest or original issue discount ("OID") and any gain recognized relating to its allocable share of those junior subordinated debt securities.

UNITED STATES HOLDERS

Interest Income and Original Issue Discount

Under applicable Treasury regulations, a "remote" contingency that stated interest will not be timely paid will be ignored in determining whether a debt instrument is issued with OID. Citigroup believes that the likelihood of its exercising its option to defer payments is remote within the meaning of the Treasury regulations. Based on the foregoing, Citigroup believes that, although the matter is not free from doubt, the junior subordinated debt securities will not be considered to be issued with OID at the time of their original issuance. Accordingly, each United States holder of capital securities should include in gross income such United States holder's allocable share of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities in accordance with such United States holder's method of tax accounting.

Under the regulations, if the option to defer any payment of interest was determined not to be "remote," or if Citigroup exercised such option, the junior subordinated debt securities would be treated as issued with OID at the time of issuance or at the time of such exercise, as the case may be. Then, all stated interest on the junior subordinated debt securities would thereafter be treated as OID as long as the junior subordinated debt securities remained outstanding. In such event, all of a United States holder's taxable interest income relating to the junior subordinated debt securities would constitute OID that would have to be included in income on an economic accrual basis before the receipt of the cash attributable to the interest, regardless of such United States holder's method of tax accounting, and actual distributions of stated interest would not be reported as taxable income. Consequently, a United States holder of capital securities would be required to include in gross income OID even though Citigroup would not make any actual cash payments during an extension period.

No rulings or other interpretations have been issued by the IRS which have addressed the meaning of the term "remote" as used in the applicable Treasury regulations, and it is possible that the IRS could take a position contrary to the interpretation in this prospectus.

Because income on the capital securities will constitute interest or OID, corporate holders of capital securities will not be entitled to a dividends-received deduction relating to any income recognized relating to the capital securities, and individual holders will not be entitled to a lower income tax rate in respect of certain dividends, relating to any income recognized relating to the capital securities.

41

Receipt of Junior Subordinated Debt Securities or Cash Upon Liquidation of Citigroup Capital

Under the circumstances described in this prospectus, junior subordinated debt securities may be distributed to holders in exchange for capital securities upon the liquidation of Citigroup Capital. Under current law, such a distribution, for United States federal income tax purposes, would be treated as a non-taxable event to each United States holder, and each United States holder would receive an aggregate tax basis in the junior subordinated debt securities equal to such holder's aggregate tax basis in its capital securities. A United States holder's holding period in the junior subordinated debt securities received in liquidation of Citigroup Capital would include the period during which the capital securities were held by such holder. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities."

Under the circumstances described in this prospectus, the junior subordinated debt securities may be redeemed by Citigroup for cash and the proceeds of such redemption distributed by Citigroup Capital to holders in redemption of their capital securities. Under current law, such a redemption would, for United States federal income tax purposes, constitute a taxable disposition of the redeemed capital securities. Accordingly, a United States holder could recognize gain or loss as if it had sold such redeemed capital securities for cash. See "Description of the Capital Securities -- Special Event Redemption" and "-- Sale Exchange, or Other Disposition of Capital Securities" below.

Sale, Exchange, or Other Disposition of Capital Securities

Upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition (collectively, a "disposition") of a capital security, a United States holder will be considered to have disposed of all or part of its ratable share of the junior subordinated debt securities. Such United States holder will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between its adjusted tax basis in the capital securities and the amount realized on the disposition of such capital securities. Assuming that Citigroup does not exercise its option to defer payment of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities and that the junior subordinated debt securities are not deemed to be issued with OID, a United States holder's adjusted tax basis in the capital securities generally will be its initial purchase price. If the junior subordinated debt securities are deemed to be issued with OID, a United States holder's tax basis in the capital securities generally will be its initial purchase price, increased by OID previously includible in such United States holder's gross income to the date of disposition and decreased by distributions or other payments received on the capital securities since and including the date that the junior subordinated debt securities were deemed to be issued with OID. Such gain or loss generally will be a capital gain or loss, except to the extent of any accrued interest relating to such United States holder's ratable share of the junior subordinated debt securities required to be included in income, and generally will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the capital securities have been held for more than one year.

Should Citigroup exercise its option to defer payment of interest on the junior subordinated debt securities, the capital securities may trade at a price that does not fully reflect the accrued but unpaid interest relating to the underlying junior subordinated debt securities. In the event of such a deferral, a United States holder who disposes of its capital securities between record dates for payments of distributions will be required to include in income as ordinary income accrued but unpaid interest on the junior subordinated debt securities to the date of disposition and to add such amount to its adjusted tax basis in its ratable share of the underlying junior subordinated debt securities deemed disposed of. To the extent the selling price is less than the holder's adjusted tax basis, such holder will recognize a capital loss. Capital losses generally cannot be applied to offset ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes.

Under Treasury regulations that address "reportable transactions," a United States holder that recognizes a loss that meets certain threshold amounts upon the disposition of a capital security may be required to disclose the loss generating transaction to the IRS. You should consult your tax advisor concerning any possible disclosure obligation with respect to your disposition of the capital securities.

42

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Generally, income on the capital securities will be reported to the IRS and to holders on Forms 1099-INT, which forms should be mailed to holders of capital securities by January 31 following each calendar year of payment. In addition, United States holders may be subject to a backup withholding tax on such payments if they do not provide their taxpayer identification numbers to the trustee in the manner required, fail to certify that they are not subject to backup withholding tax, or otherwise fail to comply with applicable backup withholding tax rules. United States holders may also be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax with respect to the proceeds from a disposition of the capital securities. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against the United States holder's United States federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

NON-UNITED STATES HOLDERS

Under current United States federal income tax law:

- withholding of United States federal income tax will not apply to a payment on a capital security to a non-United States holder, provided that,

(1) the holder does not actually or constructively own 10 percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of Citigroup entitled to vote and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to Citigroup through stock ownership;

(2) the beneficial owner provides a statement signed under penalties of perjury that includes its name and address and certifies that it is a non-United States holder in compliance with applicable requirements; and

(3) neither Citigroup nor its paying agent has actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner of the note is a United States holder.

- withholding of United States federal income tax will generally not apply to any gain realized on the disposition of a capital security.

Despite the above, if a non-United States holder is engaged in a trade or business in the United States (or, if certain tax treaties apply, if the non-United States holder maintains a permanent establishment within the United States) and the interest on the capital securities is effectively connected with the conduct of that trade or business (or, if certain tax treaties apply, attributable to that permanent establishment), such non-United States holder will be subject to United States federal income tax on the interest on a net income basis in the same manner as if such non-United States holder were a United States holder. In addition, a non-United States holder that is a foreign corporation engaged in a trade or business in the United States may be subject to a 30% (or, if certain tax treaties apply, such lower rates as provided) branch profits tax.

Any gain realized on the disposition of a capital security generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax unless:

- that gain is effectively connected with the non-United States holder's conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or, if certain tax treaties apply, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-United States holder within the United States); or

- the non-United States holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are met.

In general, backup withholding and information reporting will not apply to a payment of interest on a capital security to a non-United States holder, or to proceeds from the disposition of a capital security by a non-United States holder, in each case, if the holder certifies under penalties of perjury that it is a non-United States holder and neither Citigroup nor its paying agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be refunded or credited against the non-United

43

States holder's United States federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. In certain circumstances, if a capital security is not held through a qualified intermediary, the amount of payments made on such capital security, the name and address of the beneficial owner and the amount, if any, of tax withheld may be reported to the IRS.

THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX DISCUSSION SET FORTH ABOVE IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE DEPENDING UPON A HOLDER'S PARTICULAR SITUATION. HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS IN DETERMINING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE CAPITAL SECURITIES, INCLUDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES UNDER STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX LAWS AND THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR OTHER TAX LAWS.

44

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

A fiduciary of a pension, profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), should consider the fiduciary standards of ERISA in the context of the ERISA plan's particular circumstances before authorizing an investment in the capital securities of Citigroup Capital. Among other factors, the fiduciary should consider whether such an investment is in accordance with the documents governing the ERISA plan and whether the investment is appropriate for the ERISA plan in view of its overall investment policy and diversification of its portfolio.

Certain provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), prohibit employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that are subject to Title I of ERISA, plans described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code (including, without limitation, retirement accounts and Keogh Plans), and entities whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan's investment in such entities (including, without limitation, as applicable, insurance company general accounts), from engaging in certain transactions involving "plan assets" with parties that are "parties in interest" under ERISA or "disqualified persons" under the Code with respect to the plan or entity. Governmental and other plans that are not subject to ERISA or to the Code may be subject to similar restrictions under state, federal or local law. Any employee benefit plan or other entity, to which such provisions of ERISA, the Code or similar law apply, proposing to acquire the offered securities should consult with its legal counsel.

The U.S. Department of Labor has issued a regulation with regard to whether the underlying assets of an entity in which employee benefit plans acquire equity interests are deemed to be plan assets (the "Plan Asset Regulation"). Under such regulation, for purposes of ERISA and section 4975 of the Code, the assets of Citigroup Capital would be deemed to be "plan assets" of a plan whose assets were used to purchase capital securities of Citigroup Capital if the capital securities of Citigroup Capital were considered to be equity interests in Citigroup Capital and no exception to plan asset status were applicable under such regulation.

The Plan Asset Regulation defines an "equity interest" as any interest in an entity other than an instrument that is treated as indebtedness under applicable local law and which has no substantial equity features. Although it is not free from doubt, capital securities of Citigroup Capital offered hereby should be treated as "equity interests" for purposes of the Plan Asset Regulation. One exception to plan asset status under the Plan Asset Regulation applies to a class of "equity" interests that are (i) widely held (i.e., held by 100 or more investors who are independent of the issuer and each other), (ii) freely transferable, and (iii) either (a) part of a class of securities registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "34 Act"), or (b) sold as part of an offering of securities to the public pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 and such class is registered under the 34 Act within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year of the issuer during which the offering of such securities to the public occurred (the "Publicly Offered Securities Exception"). Although no assurances can be given, the underwriters believe that the Publicly Offered Securities Exception will be applicable to the capital securities of Citigroup Capital offered hereby.

If, however, the assets of Citigroup Capital were deemed to be plan assets of plans that are holders of the capital securities of Citigroup Capital, a plan's investment in the capital securities of Citigroup Capital might be deemed to constitute a delegation under ERISA of the duty to manage plan assets by a fiduciary investing in capital securities of Citigroup Capital. Also, Citigroup might be considered a "party in interest" or "disqualified person" relating to plans whose assets were used to purchase capital securities of Citigroup Capital. If this were the case, an investment in capital securities of Citigroup Capital by a plan might constitute, or in the course of the operation of Citigroup Capital give rise to, one or more prohibited transactions under ERISA or the Code. In particular, it is likely that under such circumstances a prohibited extension of credit to Citigroup would be considered to occur under ERISA and the Code.

In addition, Citigroup might be considered a "party in interest" or "disqualified person" for certain plans for reasons unrelated to the operation of Citigroup Capital, e.g., because of the provision of services

45

by Citigroup or its affiliates to the plan. A purchase of capital securities of Citigroup Capital by any such plan would be likely to result in a prohibited extension of credit to Citigroup, without regard to whether the assets of Citigroup Capital constituted plan assets.

Accordingly, the capital securities of Citigroup Capital may be not purchased, held or disposed by any plan or any person investing "plan assets" of any plan that is subject to the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or other similar law, unless one of the following Prohibited Transaction Class Exemptions ("PTCE") issued by the Department of Labor (or similar exemption or exception) applies to such purchase, holding and disposition:

- PTCE 96-23 for transactions determined by in-house asset managers,

- PTCE 95-60 for transactions involving insurance company general accounts,

- PTCE 91-38 for transactions involving bank collective investment funds,

- PTCE 90-1 for transactions involving insurance company separate accounts, or

- PTCE 84-14 for transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers.

Any purchaser of the capital securities of Citigroup Capital or any interest therein will be deemed to have represented and warranted to Citigroup Capital on each day from and including the date of its purchase of such capital securities through and including the date of disposition of such capital securities that either

(a) it is not a plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and is not purchasing such securities or interest therein on behalf of, or with "plan assets" of, any such plan;

(b) its purchase, holding and disposition of the capital securities are not and will not be prohibited because they are exempted by one or more of the following prohibited transaction exemptions: PTCE 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 or 84-14; or

(c) it is a governmental (as defined in section 3 or ERISA) or other plan that is not subject to the provisions of Title I or ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and its purchase, holding and disposition of capital securities are not otherwise prohibited.

Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties imposed upon persons involved in prohibited transactions, it is important that any person considering the purchase of capital securities of Citigroup Capital with plan assets consult with its counsel regarding the consequences under ERISA and the Code, or other similar law, of the acquisition and ownership of capital securities of Citigroup Capital and the availability of exemptive relief under the class exemptions listed above.

The underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the capital securities if any are purchased. In the event of default by any underwriter, the underwriting agreement provides that, in certain circumstances, purchase commitments of the non-defaulting underwriters may be increased or the underwriting agreement may be terminated.

Underwriters, dealers and agents may be entitled, under agreements with Citigroup Capital and Citigroup, to indemnification by Citigroup against liabilities relating to material misstatements and omissions. Underwriters, dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, Citigroup Capital and Citigroup and affiliates of Citigroup Capital and Citigroup in the ordinary course of business.

Citigroup Capital and Citigroup have agreed, during the period beginning on the date of the underwriting agreement and continuing to and including the date that is days after the closing date for the purchase of the capital securities, not to offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any preferred securities, any preferred stock or any other securities, including any backup undertakings of such preferred stock or other securities, of Citigroup or of Citigroup Capital, in each case that are substantially similar to the capital securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for the capital securities or such substantially similar securities of either Citigroup Capital or Citigroup, except securities in the offering or with the prior written consent of .

The following table summarizes the commissions to be paid by Citigroup to the underwriters:

(1) Underwriting commissions of $ per capital security, or $ for all % capital securities, will be paid by Citigroup; except that for sales of 10,000 or more % capital securities to a single purchaser, the commissions will be $ per capital security.

Citigroup estimates that its total expenses for the offering, excluding underwriting commissions, will be approximately $ .

The underwriters propose to offer the capital securities, in part, directly to the public at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. The underwriters may also offer the capital securities to dealers at a price that represents a concession not in excess of $ , provided that such concession for sales of 10,000 or more capital securities to a single purchaser will not be in excess of $ per capital security. The underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of $ per capital security to brokers and dealers. After the capital securities are released for sale to the public, the offering price and other selling terms may from time to time be varied by the representatives of the underwriters.

47

Application will be made to list the capital securities on the NYSE. If approved for listing, Citigroup expects the capital securities will begin trading on the NYSE within 30 days after they are first issued.

If any broker-dealer subsidiary of Citigroup makes an offering of the capital securities, such offering will be conducted pursuant to any applicable sections of Rule 2810 of the Conduct Rules of the NASD. The underwriters may not confirm sales to any discretionary account without the prior specific written approval of a customer.

In connection with this offering and in accordance with applicable law and industry practice, the underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the capital securities at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market, including by entering stabilizing bids, effecting syndicate covering transactions or imposing penalty bids, each of which is described below.

- A stabilizing bid means the placing of any bid, or the effecting of any purchase, for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of a security.

- A syndicate covering transaction means the placing of any bid on behalf of the underwriting syndicate or the effecting of any purchase to reduce a short position created in connection with the offering.

- A penalty bid means an arrangement that permits the managing underwriter to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member in connection with the offering when capital securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in syndicate covering transactions.

These transactions may be effected on the NYSE, in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise. The underwriters are not required to engage in any of these activities, or continue such activities if commenced.

This prospectus may also be used by any broker-dealer subsidiary of Citigroup in connection with offers and sales of the capital securities in market-making transactions at negotiated prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of sale. Any of Citigroup's broker-dealer subsidiaries may act as principal or agent in such transactions. None of Citigroup's broker-dealer subsidiaries have any obligation to make a market in any of the capital securities and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice, at their sole discretion.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or DGCL, empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful.

Subsection (b) of Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification may be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Subsection (d) of Section 145 of the DGCL provides that any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in

II-1


the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by the majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or
(4) by the stockholders.

Section 145 of the DGCL further provides that to the extent a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith and that such expenses may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in Section 145 of the DGCL; that any indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; that indemnification provided by, or granted pursuant to, Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized and ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person's heirs, executors and administrators; and empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person's status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities under
Section 145. Section Four of Article IV of Citigroup's By-Laws provides that Citigroup shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

Citigroup also provides liability insurance for its directors and officers which provides for coverage against loss from claims made against directors and officers in their capacity as such, including, subject to certain exceptions, liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Article Tenth of Citigroup's Restated Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7).

The Declaration of each of the Citigroup Trusts provides that no Institutional Trustee or any of its affiliates, Delaware Trustee or any of its affiliates, or officer, director, shareholder, member, partner, employee, representative custodian, nominee or agent of the Institutional Trustee or the Delaware Trustee (each a "Fiduciary Indemnified Person"), and no Regular Trustee, affiliate of any Regular Trustee, or any officer, director, shareholder, member, partner, employee, representative or agent of any Regular Trustee, or any employee or agent of such Citigroup Trust or its affiliates (each a "Company Indemnified Person") shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to such Citigroup Trust, any affiliate of such Citigroup Trust or any holder of securities issued by such Citigroup Trust, or to any officer, director, shareholder, partner, member, representative, employee or agent of such Citigroup Trust or its Affiliates for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such

II-2


Fiduciary Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of such Citigroup Trust and in a manner such Fiduciary Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Fiduciary Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person by such Declaration or by law, except that a Fiduciary Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person shall be liable for any loss, damage, or claim incurred by reason of such Fiduciary Indemnified Person's or Company Indemnified Person's gross negligence (or in the case of a Fiduciary Indemnified Person, negligence) or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions. The Declaration of each Citigroup Trust also provides that, to the full extent permitted by law, Citigroup shall indemnify any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in right of such Citigroup Trust) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Citigroup Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The Declaration of each Citigroup Trust also provides that to the full extent permitted by law, Citigroup shall indemnify any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in right of such Citigroup Trust to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Citigroup Trust and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Company Indemnified Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Citigroup Trust unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. The Declaration of each Citigroup Trust further provides that expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by a Company Indemnified Person in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding referred to in the immediately preceding two sentences shall be paid by Citigroup in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by Citigroup as authorized in the Declaration.

The directors and officers of Citigroup and the Regular Trustee are covered by insurance policies indemnifying them against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act, which might be incurred by them in such capacities and against which they cannot be indemnified by Citigroup or the Citigroup Trusts. Any agents, dealers or underwriters who execute any underwriting or distribution agreement relating to securities offered pursuant to this Registration Statement will agree to indemnify Citigroup's directors and their officers and the Citigroup Trustees who signed the Registration Statement against certain liabilities that may arise under the Securities Act with respect to information furnished to Citigroup or any of the Citigroup Trusts by or on behalf of such indemnifying party.

For the undertaking with respect to indemnification, see Item 17 herein.

See the forms of Underwriting Agreements and the form of Distribution Agreement filed or to be filed as Exhibits 1.01, 1.02, 1.03, 1.04, 1.05 and 1.06 for certain indemnification provisions.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

The undersigned registrants hereby undertake:

(A)(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to such information in this registration statement;

provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those clauses is contained in

II-6


periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by Citigroup Inc. pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(B) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each filing of Citigroup Inc.'s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrants pursuant to the provisions described under Item 15 above, or otherwise, the registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrants will, unless in the opinion of their counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(D)(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrants pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Citigroup Global Markets Inc.
388 Greenwich Street
New York, New York 10013

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Citigroup Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), confirms its agreement with the Agent (as defined below) with respect to the issue and sale by the Company of its Medium-Term Senior Notes, Series H, Due Nine Months or More from the Date of Issue (the "Senior Notes") and its Medium-Term Subordinated Notes, Series H, Due Nine Months or More from the Date of Issue (the "Subordinated Notes" and, together with the Senior Notes, the "Notes"). The Senior Notes are to be issued under an Indenture dated as of March 15, 1987, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 15, 1988, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of January 31, 1991, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 9, 1992 and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 2, 1998 (as so supplemented or as it may from time to time be further supplemented or amended by one or more indentures supplemental thereto, the "Senior Debt Indenture"), between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the "Senior Debt Trustee"). The Subordinated Notes are to be issued under an Indenture dated as of April 12, 2001 (as it may from time to time be supplemented or amended by one or more indentures supplemental thereto, the "Subordinated Debt Indenture" and, together with the Senior Debt Indenture, the "Indentures"), between the Company and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association (as successor trustee to Bank One Trust Company, N.A.), as trustee (the "Subordinated Debt Trustee" and, together with the Senior Debt Trustee, the "Trustees"). The Notes will have the maturities, interest rates (whether fixed or floating), redemption provisions and other terms set forth in pricing supplements to the Prospectus referred to


below. The Notes may be denominated in U.S. dollars, foreign currencies or foreign composite currency units (the "Specified Currency") as may be specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

Subject to the terms and conditions stated herein and subject to the reservation by the Company of the right to sell Notes to the Agent acting as principal at a discount for its own account or for resale to one or more investors or other dealers and the Company's right to sell Notes directly to investors on its own behalf or through other agents (provided that any other agent will execute an agreement with the Company substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto and that the Company will notify the Agent of its agreement with any other agents, dealers or underwriters, but only if such other agents, dealers or underwriters are appointed for the duration of this Agreement), the Company hereby appoints the Agent as an agent of the Company for the purpose of soliciting offers to purchase the Notes. In addition, the Agent may also purchase Notes as principal and the Company will enter into a Terms Agreement (referred to below) relating to such sale in accordance with the provisions of
Section l(b) hereof. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "Agent" shall refer to Citigroup Global Markets Inc.

1. Solicitations by the Agent of Offers to Purchase; Purchases as Principal.

(a) Solicitations as Agent. Following the Commencement Date (as defined below), the Company shall notify the Agent from time to time as to the commencement of a period during which the Notes may be offered and sold by the Agent (each period, commencing with such a notification and ending at such time as the authorization for offers and sales through the Agent shall have been suspended by the Company or the Agent as provided hereunder, being herein referred to as an "Offering Period"). On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Agent agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the Notes during each Offering Period upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus as then amended and supplemented. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend solicitation of purchases of the Notes commencing at any time for any period of time or permanently. Upon receipt of instructions from the Company, the Agent will forthwith suspend solicitation of purchases from the Company until such time as the Company has advised the Agent that such solicitation may be resumed.

Unless otherwise agreed to, the Company agrees to pay the Agent at the time of delivery of and payment for the Notes, as consideration for soliciting the sale of each Note, a commission equal to the percentage set forth on Schedule 1 hereto of the price to the public of each Note sold by the Company as the result of a solicitation by the Agent. Without the prior approval of the Company, the Agent (acting on an agency basis) may not reallow any portion of the commission payable pursuant hereto to dealers or purchasers in connection with the offer and sale of any Notes.

The Agent is authorized to solicit orders for the Notes only in principal amounts of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is a multiple of $1,000 or, in the case of Notes denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, in the

2

denominations set forth in the applicable pricing supplement, at a purchase price mutually agreed upon by the purchaser and the Company and specified in the applicable pricing supplement. The Agent shall communicate to the Company, orally or in writing, each reasonable offer or indication of interest to purchase Notes received by the Agent, as agent. The Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase the Notes and may reject any such offer in whole or in part. The Agent shall have the right to reject, in its discretion reasonably exercised, any offer received by it to purchase the Notes, in whole or in part, and any such rejection shall not be deemed a breach of its agreements contained herein. In soliciting offers to purchase the Notes in its capacity as agent of the Company, the Agent is acting solely as agent for the Company, and not as principal, and does not assume any obligation toward, or relationship of agency or trust with, any purchaser of the Notes (other than any such obligation or relationship which the Agent assumes independently of this Agreement). The Agent shall make reasonable efforts to assist the Company in obtaining performance by each purchaser whose offer to purchase Notes has been solicited by the Agent and accepted by the Company, but the Agent shall not have any liability to the Company in the event any such purchase is not consummated for any reason. Under no circumstances will the Agent be obligated to purchase any Notes for its own account except pursuant to subparagraph (b) below.

(b) Purchases as Principal. Each sale of Notes to the Agent as principal shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Agent and the Company will enter into a Terms Agreement that will provide for the sale of such Notes to and the purchase thereof by the Agent. Each "Terms Agreement" may take the form of an exchange of any form of written telecommunication or oral communication followed by written confirmation or telecommunication between the Agent and the Company and shall be with respect to such information (as applicable) as is specified in Exhibit A hereto.

The Agent's commitment to purchase Notes as principal shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations and warranties of the Company herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. Each agreement by the Agent to purchase Notes as principal (whether or not set forth in a Terms Agreement) shall specify the principal amount of Notes to be purchased by the Agent pursuant thereto, the maturity date of such Notes, the price to be paid to the Company for such Notes, the interest rate and interest rate formula, if any, applicable to such Notes and any other terms of such Notes. Each such agreement shall also specify any requirements for officers' certificates, opinions of counsel and letters from the independent public accountants of the Company pursuant to Section 4 hereof. A Terms Agreement may also specify certain provisions relating to the reoffering of such Notes by the Agent.

Each Terms Agreement shall specify the time and place of delivery of and payment for such Notes. Each date of delivery of and payment for Notes to be purchased by the Agent as principal or as agent or by any other purchaser is referred to herein as a "Settlement Date."

3

Upon the Company's request, the Agent will notify the Company either orally or in writing (as specified by the Company) of the aggregate principal amount of Notes held by the Agent as principal purchased pursuant to a Terms Agreement pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Procedures. The Agent and the Company agree to perform the respective duties and obligations specifically provided to be performed by them in the Medium-Term Notes Administrative Procedures attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Procedures"). The Procedures may be amended only by written agreement of the Company and the Agent.

(d) Delivery. The documents required to be delivered by Section 4 of this Agreement shall be delivered at the office of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP ("Skadden, Arps") (or such other counsel reasonably satisfactory to both the Agent and the Company), Four Times Square, New York, NY 10036-6522, on , 20 (the "Commencement Date").

2. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Agent as of the Commencement Date:

(a) A registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333- ), has been filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on , 20 , in respect of up to $ aggregate amount of securities of the Company, including the Notes (of which $ remains available for issuance and sale as of the date hereof). Such registration statement and any post-effective amendments thereto, in the forms heretofore delivered or to be delivered to the Agent, excluding exhibits to such registration statement but including all documents incorporated by reference therein, has been declared effective by the Commission in such form. No other document with respect to such registration statement (other than a document incorporated by reference therein) has heretofore been filed or transmitted for filing with the Commission; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission. The various parts of such registration statement, including all exhibits thereto and the documents incorporated by reference in the prospectus contained in such registration statement at the time such part became effective but excluding the Statements of Eligibility under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"), pertaining to the Indentures (the "Forms T-1"), as amended at the time such part became effective, are being hereinafter collectively called the "Registration Statement." Any preliminary prospectus included in the Registration Statement or filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(a) of the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), is hereinafter called a "Preliminary Prospectus." The form of basic prospectus included in the Registration Statement relating to the offering and sale of Debt Securities, Index Warrants, Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares, Common Stock Warrants, Stock Purchase Contracts, Stock Purchase Units and Common Stock in the form in which it has most recently been filed, or transmitted for filing with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement, is being hereinafter called the

4

"Basic Prospectus." The form of prospectus supplement to the Basic Prospectus relating to the offering and sale of the Notes included in the Registration Statement, in the form in which it has most recently been filed or transmitted for filing with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement, is being hereinafter called the "Prospectus Supplement." The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, is being hereinafter called the "Prospectus." Any reference herein to any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to the applicable form under the Act, as of the date of such Preliminary Prospectus, Prospectus Supplement or Prospectus, as the case may be. Any reference to any amendment or supplement to any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus, including any supplement to the Prospectus that sets forth only the terms of a particular issue of the Notes (a "Pricing Supplement"), shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed after the date of such Preliminary Prospectus, Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and incorporated by reference in such Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus, as the case may be. Any reference to any amendment to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to include any report of the Company filed pursuant to the Exchange Act after the effective date of the Registration Statement that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. Any reference to the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, shall be deemed to refer to and include the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, in relation to the Notes sold pursuant to this Agreement, in the form in which it is filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act, including any documents incorporated by reference therein as of the date of such filing.

(b) The documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, or any further amendment or supplement thereto, when such documents become effective or are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(c) Each of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and each of the Indentures, conform or will conform in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the Trust Indenture Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

(d) The Registration Statement, as amended as of any time, did not and will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented as of any such time, did not and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances

5

under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Agent specifically for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto.

(e) The Notes have been duly authorized and, when executed and authenticated in accordance with the applicable Indenture and delivered to and duly paid for by the purchasers thereof, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and entitled to the benefits of the applicable Indenture (subject, as to enforcement, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); each of the Indentures has been duly authorized by the Company and qualified under the Trust Indenture Act; and the Indentures conform to the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus as amended or supplemented to relate to such issuance of Notes.

(f) Since the date of the most recent financial statements included in the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, there has not been any material adverse change in the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which is not disclosed in the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented.

3. Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with the Agent that:

(a) At any time during an Offering Period or during the time a prospectus relating to the Notes is required to be delivered under the Act, prior to amending or supplementing the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the Company will furnish the Agent and the Agent's counsel with a copy of each proposed amendment or supplement (other than an amendment or supplement to be made pursuant to incorporation by reference of a document filed under the Exchange Act, or a Pricing Supplement or an amendment or supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Notes). The Company will promptly cause the Prospectus together with each amendment thereof or supplement thereto to be transmitted to the Commission for filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) by an appropriate method or will promptly cause the Prospectus together with each amendment thereof or supplement thereto to be filed with the Commission pursuant to said Rule. If the Prospectus is amended or supplemented (other than a Pricing Supplement or an amendment or supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Notes), the Agent shall be furnished with such information relating to such filing as it may reasonably request, and the Agent shall not be obligated to solicit offers to purchase Notes so long as it is not reasonably satisfied that such amendment or supplement complies in all material respects with the provisions of the Act and the Exchange Act. At any time during an Offering Period or during the time a prospectus relating to the Notes is required to be delivered under the Act, the Company will promptly advise the Agent of (i) the filing of any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus (other than a Pricing Supplement or an amendment or

6

supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Notes),
(ii) the filing or effectiveness of any amendment to the Registration Statement,
(iii) the receipt by the Company of comments from the Commission relating to, or requests by the Commission for, any amendment of the Registration Statement or any amendment of or supplement to the Prospectus or for any additional information, (iv) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (v) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Notes for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or notice of suspension of qualification and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof. Upon the Agent's request, the Company will within a reasonable time inform the Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Notes registered under the Registration Statement that remain unissued.

(b) Within the time during which a prospectus relating to the Notes is required to be delivered under the Act, the Company will comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Act, as now and hereafter amended, and by the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, as from time to time in force, so far as necessary to permit the continuance of sales of or dealings in the Notes as contemplated by the provisions hereof and the Prospectus. If during such period any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if, in the opinion of the Company, during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus to comply with the Act, the Company will promptly notify the Agent to suspend the solicitation of offers to purchase the Notes in its capacity as Agent and to cease sales of any Notes it may then own as principal and, to the extent required under the provision in the last sentence of this subsection (b), the Company will promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance. If such amendment or supplement, and any documents, certificates, opinions and letters furnished to the Agent pursuant to subsections (i), (j) and (k) of this Section 3 in connection with the preparation and filing of such amendment or supplement are reasonably satisfactory in all respects to the Agent, upon the filing of such amendment or supplement with the Commission or effectiveness of an amendment to the Registration Statement, the Agent will resume solicitation of offers to purchase Notes hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to comply with the provisions of subsection (b) of this
Section 3 during any period from the time the Agent shall have been notified to suspend the solicitation of offers to purchase the Notes in its capacity as Agent (whether under this subparagraph (b) or otherwise under this Agreement) to the time the Company shall determine that solicitation of offers to purchase the Notes should be resumed; provided that if the Agent holds any Notes as principal purchased pursuant to a Terms Agreement or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall comply with the provisions of subsection (b) of this

7

Section 3 during the period when a Prospectus is required to be delivered pursuant to the Act.

(c) The Company will comply, in a timely manner, with all applicable requirements under the Exchange Act relating to the filing with the Commission of the Company's reports pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and, if then applicable, of the Company's proxy statements pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act.

(d) The Company will use its best efforts to qualify the Notes for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Agent reasonably designates, to maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Notes and, if requested by the Agent, to arrange for the determination of the legality of the Notes for purchase by institutional investors, except that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

(e) The Company will furnish to the Agent copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (including all documents incorporated by reference therein), and all amendments of and supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which are filed with the Commission during the period in which a prospectus relating to the Notes is required to be delivered under the Act (including all documents filed by an amendment or supplement with the Commission during such period which are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein), in each case in such quantities as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

(f) The Company will make generally available to its security holders and to the Agent as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 15 months after the end of the Company's current fiscal quarter, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering a 12-month period beginning after the date upon which any amendment of or supplement to the Prospectus (other than a Pricing Supplement or an amendment or supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Notes) is filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act, which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act.

(g) The Company shall, whether or not any sale of Notes is consummated or this Agreement is terminated, pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and under any Terms Agreement, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of its accountants and counsel, the cost of printing (or other production) and delivery of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, all amendments thereof and supplements thereto, the Indentures, and all other documents relating to the offering, the cost of preparing, printing, packaging and delivering the Notes, the fees and disbursements (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred in connection with the qualification of the Notes for sale and determination of eligibility for investment of the Notes under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Agent may designate, the fees and disbursements of the Trustees, the

8

fees of any agency that rates the Notes, the fees and expenses in connection with any listing of the Notes on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the "New York Stock Exchange") or such other securities exchange agreed to in writing by the Company, the fees and expenses incurred with respect to any filing with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and the reasonable fees and disbursements of Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton ("Cleary Gottlieb"), as counsel for the Agent, or other counsel reasonably satisfactory to both the Agent and the Company, and such other expenses, including, without limitation, advertising expenses as may be agreed upon by the Agent and the Company; provided, however, that with respect to any purchase of Notes by the Agent as principal pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the fees and disbursements of Cleary Gottlieb or other counsel to the Agent relating to such purchase shall be paid by the Agent and shall not be paid by the Company.

(h) During the term of this Agreement, the Company shall furnish to the Agent such relevant documents and certificates of officers of the Company relating to the business, operations and affairs of the Company, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, the Indentures, the Notes, this Agreement, the Procedures, any Terms Agreement and the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder or thereunder as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request and shall promptly notify the Agent orally, followed by written notice of any downgrading, or of its receipt of any notice of any intended downgrading, in the rating accorded any of the Company's securities by Moody's Investor Service ("Moody's") or Standard & Poor's Corporation ("Standard & Poor's") or, if one of them no longer rates the securities of the Company, another "nationally recognized statistical rating organization," as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Act.

(i) Each time the Registration Statement or the Prospectus is amended or supplemented (other than (a) Pricing Supplement, (b) an amendment or supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Notes or
(c) an amendment or supplement made pursuant to the incorporation by reference of a document filed under the Exchange Act), if requested by the Agent, the Company will deliver or cause to be delivered forthwith to the Agent a certificate of the Company signed by the Chairman of the Board, any Vice Chairman, the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Accounting Officer, the Treasurer, Deputy Treasurer, or any Assistant Treasurer and by the Controller or the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company (or another officer or officers acceptable to the Agent), dated the date of the effectiveness of such amendment or the date of filing with the Commission of such supplement or document, as the case may be, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, to the effect that the statements contained in the certificate referred to in
Section 4(b)(iii) hereof that was last furnished to the Agent (either pursuant to Section 4(b)(iii) or pursuant to this Section 3(i)) are true and correct at the time of the effectiveness of such amendment or the time of filing of such supplement or document, as the case may be, as though made at and as of such time (except that such statements shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement, as amended at the time of effectiveness of such amendment, and to the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented at the date of such certificate) or, in lieu of such certificate, a certificate of the same tenor as the certificate referred to in Section 4(b)(iii) hereof, but modified, if

9

necessary, to relate to the Registration Statement, as amended at the time of the effectiveness of such amendment, and to the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented at the date of such certificate.

(j) Each time the Registration Statement or the Prospectus is amended or supplemented (other than (a) a Pricing Supplement, (b) an amendment or supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Notes or
(c) an amendment or supplement made pursuant to the incorporation by reference of a document under the Exchange Act), if requested by the Agent, the Company shall furnish to or cause to be furnished forthwith to the Agent the written opinion of the General Counsel -- Capital Markets of the Company or other counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Agent dated the date of the effectiveness of such amendment or the date of filing with the Commission of such supplement or document, as the case may be, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, to the effect set forth in Exhibit C hereto. In lieu of such opinion, counsel last furnishing such an opinion to the Agent may furnish to the Agent a letter to the effect that the Agent may rely on such last opinion to the same extent as though it were dated the date of such letter and authorizing reliance on such last opinion (except that statements in such last opinion will be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement, as amended at the time of the effectiveness of such amendment, and to the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented at the date of such letter).

(k) Each time that the Registration Statement or the Prospectus is amended or supplemented to set forth amended or supplemental financial information (other than (a) a Pricing Supplement, (b) any amendment or supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Notes or
(c) an amendment or supplement made pursuant to the incorporation by reference of a document under the Exchange Act), if requested by the Agent, the Company shall cause KPMG LLP ("KPMG"), its independent certified public accountants, to furnish forthwith the Agent a letter, within three business days following the date of the effectiveness of such amendment or the date of filing of such supplement or document, as the case may be (provided that, in the event any Settlement Date falls within such three business day period, such letter will be delivered on or prior to such Settlement Date), in form satisfactory to the Agent, of the same tenor as the letter referred to in Section 4(b)(iv) hereof, but modified to relate to the Registration Statement and Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter, with such changes as may be necessary to reflect changes in the financial statements and other information derived from the accounting records of the Company; provided, that, if the Registration Statement or the Prospectus is amended or supplemented solely to include or incorporate by reference financial information with respect to a fiscal quarter, KPMG may limit the scope of such letter to the unaudited financial statements included in such amendment or supplement.

(l) Each acceptance by the Company of an offer for the purchase of Notes and each sale of Notes to the Agent as principal shall be deemed to be an affirmation that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects at the time of such acceptance or sale, as the case may be, as though made at and as of such time, and an undertaking that such representations and warranties will be true and correct in all

10

material respects at the time of delivery to the purchaser or his agent, or the Agent, or the Agent as principal, of the Notes relating to such acceptance, as the case may be, as though made at and as of such time (and it is understood that such representations and warranties shall relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to each such time).

(m) Anything to the contrary in this Section 3 notwithstanding, if, at the time of any required notice, amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the Company shall have instructed the Agent to suspend solicitation of offers to purchase the Notes in its capacity as Agent of the Company and the Agent does not then hold any Notes acquired by it as principal pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to furnish or cause to be furnished to the Agent any notice, certificate, opinion or letter otherwise required until such time as it shall determine that solicitation of offers to purchase the Notes should be resumed; and provided further that, prior to resuming such solicitation the Agent shall be entitled to receive any such notices, certificates, opinions or letters not previously furnished, accurate as of the date of such notice, certificate, opinion or letter.

4. Conditions to the Obligations of the Agent. The Agent's obligations to solicit offers to purchase Notes as agent of the Company, the Agent's obligations to purchase Notes as principal pursuant to any Terms Agreement or otherwise and the obligation of any other purchaser to purchase Notes from the Company will be subject to the accuracy in all material respects of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company herein contained, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company's officers made in each certificate furnished pursuant to the provisions hereof and to the performance and observance by the Company of all covenants and agreements herein contained on its part to be performed and observed (in the case of the Agent's obligations to solicit offers to purchase Notes, at the time of such solicitation, and, in the case of the Agent's or any other purchaser's obligation to purchase Notes, at the time the Company accepts the offer to purchase such Notes and at the time of purchase) and (in each case) to the following additional conditions precedent when and as specified:

(a) On the corresponding Settlement Date:

(i) There shall not have occurred any change affecting particularly the business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries from that set forth in the Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented, that, in the Agent's judgment, makes it impracticable to market the Notes on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus except, in the case of any purchase of Notes by the Agent as principal, as disclosed to the Agent in writing by the Company before it accepted the offer to purchase such Notes.

(ii) There shall not have occurred any (A) suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange, or any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange, (B) declaration of a general moratorium on commercial banking

11

activities in New York by either federal or New York state authorities or (C) any outbreak or escalation of major hostilities in which the United States is involved, any declaration of war by Congress or any other substantial national or international calamity or emergency that, in the Agent's judgment, is material and adverse and, in the case of any of the events described in clauses (ii)(A) through (C), such event makes it, in the Agent's judgment, impracticable to market the Notes on the terms and in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, except, in the case of any purchase of Notes by the Agent as principal, for any such event occurring before the Company accepted the offer to purchase such Notes.

(iii) There shall not have been any downgrading, nor any notice given of any intended downgrading, in the rating accorded any of the Company's securities by Moody's or Standard & Poor's or, if one of them no longer rates the securities of the Company, another "nationally recognized statistical rating organization," as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Act, except, in the case of any purchase of Notes by the Agent as principal, as disclosed to the Agent in writing by the Company before it accepted the offer to purchase such Notes.

(b) On the Commencement Date and, if called for by any agreement by the Agent to purchase Notes as principal, on the corresponding Settlement Date:

(i) The Company shall have furnished to the Agent the opinion of the General Counsel -- Capital Markets of the Company (or other counsel for the Company reasonably acceptable to the Agent) on the Commencement Date, and on the Settlement Date will furnish the opinion of the General Counsel -- Capital Markets of the Company (or other counsel for the Company reasonably acceptable to the Agent) and, if called for by a Terms Agreement, the opinion of other counsel, dated the Commencement Date or the Settlement Date, as the case may be, to the effect set forth in Exhibit C hereto.

(ii) The Agent shall have received from Cleary Gottlieb (or other counsel reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the Company), counsel for the Agent, an opinion dated the Commencement Date or the Settlement Date, as the case may be, to the effect set forth in Exhibit D hereto.

(iii) The Company shall have furnished to the Agent a certificate of the Company, signed by the Chairman of the Board, any Vice Chairman, the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Accounting Officer, the Treasurer, the Deputy Treasurer, or any Assistant Treasurer and by the Controller or the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company (or another officer or officers acceptable to the Agent), dated the Commencement Date or the Settlement Date, as the case may be, to the effect that each signatory of such certificate, to the best of his or her knowledge, after reasonable investigation, certifies that:

12

(A) the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such certificate with the same effect as if made on the date of such certificate and the Company has complied in all material respects with all the agreements and satisfied in all material respects all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied as a condition to the obligations of the Agent under this Agreement;

(B) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to their knowledge, have been threatened; and

(C) since the date of the most recent financial statements included in the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which is not disclosed in the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented.

(iv) KPMG, or another nationally recognized independent accounting firm, shall have furnished to the Agent a letter or letters, dated the Commencement Date or the Settlement Date, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, to the effect set forth in Exhibit E hereto.

(v) The Company shall have furnished to the Agent such appropriate further information, certificates and documents as the Agent may reasonably request.

5. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Agent against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Agent may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement when it became effective, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related Preliminary Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and will reimburse the Agent for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending against such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the

13

Agent specifically for use in the preparation thereof and such indemnity with respect to any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or any preliminary supplemental prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of the Agent (or any person controlling the Agent) if the Company shall have delivered sufficient quantities of the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented, to the Agent within a reasonable time prior to the earlier of the delivery of the written confirmation of the sale of such Notes or the delivery of such Notes to the person asserting such loss, claim, damage, liability or action for which indemnification is sought, and the Prospectus as so amended and supplemented (excluding documents incorporated by reference) was not sent or given to such person by the Agent at or prior to the earlier of the delivery of the written confirmation of the sale of such Notes or the delivery of such Notes to such person in any case where such sending or giving of a prospectus is required by the Act, and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus, such Prospectus or such preliminary supplemental prospectus, was corrected in the Prospectus, as so amended and supplemented, provided to the Agent.

(b) The Agent will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any part of the Registration Statement when such part became effective, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related Preliminary Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Agent specifically for use in the preparation thereof, and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnified party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such

14

indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Agent participating in the offering that gave rise to such losses, claims, damages or liabilities on the other from the offering of such Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Agent on the other in connection with the offering of such Notes shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of such Notes by the Agent (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total commissions received by the Agent in respect thereof. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Agent and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d). The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim (which shall be limited as provided in subsection (c) above if the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of any such action in accordance with the provisions thereof) which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Notes were offered and sold to the public by the Agent exceeds the amount of any damages which the Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this subsection (d) of notice of the commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against an indemnifying party under this subsection (d), such indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof if the notice specified in subsection (c) above has not been given with respect to such action; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from

15

any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this subsection (d).

(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 5 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Agent within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the Agent under this Section 5 shall be in addition to any liability which the Agent may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Company, to each officer of the Company who has signed the Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act.

6. Termination of the Appointment of the Agent. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by either party hereto upon the giving of written notice of such termination to the other party hereto. The termination of this Agreement shall not require termination of any agreement by the Agent to purchase Notes as principal, and the termination of any such agreement shall not require termination of this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated, neither party shall have any liability to the other party hereto, except as provided in the first sentence of the second paragraph of Section 1(a), the last proviso of
Section 3(b), and Sections 3(f), 3(g), 5, 7 and 11 hereof, and except that, if at the time of termination an offer to purchase any of the Notes has been accepted by the Company but the time of delivery to the purchaser or its agent of the Note or Notes relating thereto has not occurred, the Company's representations and warranties stated in Section 2 and its obligations under Sections 1(c), 3(a), 3(b), 3(c), 3(e), 3(h), 3(i), 3(j), 3(k), 3(l) and 4 hereof shall also remain in full force and effect in favor of such purchaser or agent and not be terminated until the delivery of such Notes.

7. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. With respect to the Agent's solicitation of offers to purchase Notes as agent of the Company or the Agent's obligation to purchase Notes as principal pursuant to any Terms Agreement or otherwise, the respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the Agent set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent or the Company or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 5 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Notes for a period extending to the earlier of (i) three years from the corresponding Settlement Date for such Notes or (ii) the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations governing such solicitation or purchase of Notes.

8. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Agent, will be mailed, delivered or transmitted to it by any standard form of telecommunications at:

9. Successors.

Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement or any Terms Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Section 5 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any Terms Agreement or any provision herein or therein contained. This Agreement and any Terms Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof and thereof, except to the extent provided for in Section 4 hereof, are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Notes shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Agent hereunder may not be assigned without the prior written consent of the Company.

10. Waivers, Etc. Neither any failure nor delay on the part of any party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement (singly and collectively referred to as a "Right") shall operate as a waiver of such Right, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any Right preclude any other or further exercise of any Right,

17

nor shall any waiver of any Right with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of any Right with respect to any other occurrence.

11. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

CITIGROUP INC.

Medium-Term Notes Administrative Procedures

____________, 2004

The Medium-Term Senior Notes, Series H, Due Nine Months or More from the Date of Issue (the "Senior Notes") and the Medium-Term Subordinated Notes, Series H, Due Nine Months or More from the Date of Issue (the "Subordinated Notes" and, together with the Senior Notes, the "Notes") of Citigroup Inc. (the "Company") are to be offered on a continuing basis. Citigroup Global Markets Inc. has agreed, as agent, to solicit purchases of the Notes issued in fully registered form. (The term "Agent" when used in these Administrative Procedures, means Citigroup Global Markets Inc.). The Agent will not be obligated to purchase Notes for its own account. The Notes are being sold pursuant to a Distribution Agreement between the Company and the agents named therein (including the Agent) dated the date hereof (the "Distribution Agreement"). The Notes have been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). The Bank of New York ("BONY") is the trustee under the Indenture, dated as of March 15, 1987, as amended from time to time, under which the Senior Notes will be issued (the "Senior Debt Indenture"). J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association (as successor trustee to Bank One Trust Company, N.A.) ("JPMTC") is the trustee (together with BONY, the "Trustees") under the Indenture, dated as of April 12, 2001, as amended from time to time, under which the Subordinated Notes will be issued (the "Subordinated Debt Indenture" and, together with the Senior Debt Indenture, the "Indentures"). The Senior Notes will constitute part of the senior debt of the Company and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of the Company. The Subordinated Notes will be subordinate and junior in the right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Subordinated Debt Indenture.

The Distribution Agreement provides that Notes may also be purchased by the Agent acting solely as principal and not as agent. In the event of any such purchase, the functions of both the Agent and the beneficial owner under the administrative procedures set forth below shall be performed by the Agent acting solely as principal, unless otherwise agreed to between the Company and the Agent acting as principal.

Each Note will be represented by either a Global Security (as defined hereinafter) or a certificate delivered to the Holder thereof or a Person designated by such Holder (a "Certificated Note"). Each Global Security representing Senior Notes and each Global Security representing Subordinated Notes will be delivered to Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") acting as agent for The Depository Trust Company or any successor depository selected by the Company ("DTC," which term, as used herein, includes any successor depository selected by the Company), and will be recorded in the book-entry

B-1

system maintained by DTC (a "Book-Entry Note"). An owner of a Book-Entry Note will not be entitled to receive a certificate representing such Note.

The procedures to be followed during, and the specific terms of, the solicitation of orders by the Agent and the sale as a result thereof by the Company are explained below. Administrative and record-keeping responsibilities will be handled for the Company by its Treasury Department. The Company will advise the Agent, Citibank and the Trustees in writing of those persons handling administrative responsibilities with whom the Agent and the Trustees are to communicate regarding orders to purchase Notes and the details of their delivery.

Administrative procedures and specific terms of the offering are explained below. Book-Entry Notes will be issued in accordance with the administrative procedures set forth in Part I hereof, as adjusted in accordance with changes in DTC's operating requirements, and Certificated Notes will be issued in accordance with the administrative procedures set forth in Part II hereof. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Indentures, the Notes or the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Notes shall be used herein as therein defined. Notes for which interest is calculated on the basis of a fixed interest rate, which may be zero, are referred to herein as "Fixed Rate Notes." Notes for which interest is calculated on the basis of a floating interest rate are referred to herein as "Floating Rate Notes." The Company will appoint and enter into agreements with agents (each a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on Floating Rate Notes. Unless otherwise specified in a Pricing Supplement, Citibank will be the Calculation Agent for each Senior Note that is a Floating Rate Note and each Subordinated Note that is a Floating Rate Note. To the extent the procedures set forth below conflict with the provisions of the Notes, the Indentures, DTC's operating requirements or the Distribution Agreement, the relevant provisions of the Notes, the Indentures, DTC's operating requirements and the Distribution Agreement shall control. The Company has appointed Citibank to act as paying agent.

PART I

Administrative Procedures for
Book-Entry Notes

In connection with the qualification of the Book-Entry Notes for eligibility in the book-entry system maintained by DTC, Citibank (in such capacity, the "DTC Agent") will perform the custodial, document control and administrative functions described below for the Senior Notes and the Subordinated Notes, respectively. Citibank will perform such functions in accordance with its respective obligations under a bring down Letter of Representations from the Company and Citibank to DTC dated as of , 20 and a Medium-Term Note Certificate Agreement between Citibank and DTC, dated as of October 31, 1988, and its obligations as a participant in DTC, including DTC's Same-Day Funds Settlement system ("SDFS").

                                     (collectively, the "Terms"). Each Global
                                     Security will be dated and issued as of the
                                     date of its settlement. Each Global
                                     Security will bear an Original Issue Date,
                                     which will be (i) with respect to an
                                     original Global Security (or any portion

                                     Service Bureau of Standard & Poor's
                                     Corporation (the "CUSIP Service Bureau")
                                     for the reservation of two series of CUSIP
                                     numbers, one for Senior Notes and one for
                                     Subordinated Notes, each of

                                      B-3

                                     which series consists of approximately 900
                                     CUSIP numbers and relates to Global
                                     Securities representing Book-Entry Notes
                                     and book-entry medium-term notes issued by
                                     the Company with other Series designations.
                                     The DTC Agents, the Company and DTC have
                                     obtained from the CUSIP Service Bureau a
                                     written list of such reserved CUSIP
                                     numbers. The DTC Agents will assign CUSIP
                                     numbers to Global Securities as described
                                     below under Settlement Procedure "B." DTC
                                     will notify the CUSIP Service Bureau
                                     periodically of the CUSIP numbers that the
                                     DTC Agents have assigned to Global
                                     Securities. The DTC Agent will notify the
                                     Company at any time when fewer than 100 of
                                     the reserved CUSIP numbers remain
                                     unassigned to Global Securities, and, if it
                                     deems necessary, the Company will reserve
                                     additional CUSIP numbers for assignment to
                                     Global Securities. Upon obtaining such
                                     additional CUSIP numbers, the Company shall
                                     deliver a list of such additional CUSIP
                                     numbers to either or both DTC Agents, as
                                     needed, and to DTC.

                                     the specified exchange date, such DTC Agent
                                     will exchange such Global Securities for a
                                     single Global Security bearing the new
                                     CUSIP number and a new Original Issue Date,
                                     which shall be the last date to which
                                     interest has been paid on the

                                      B-5

                                     underlying Book-Entry Notes, and the CUSIP
                                     numbers of the exchanged Global Securities
                                     will, in accordance with CUSIP Service
                                     Bureau procedures, be canceled and not
                                     immediately reassigned. Upon such exchange,
                                     the DTC Agent will mark the predecessor
                                     Global Security "canceled," make
                                     appropriate entries in the DTC Agent's
                                     records and destroy such canceled Global
                                     Security in accordance with the terms of
                                     the applicable Indenture and deliver a
                                     certificate of destruction to the Company.
                                     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
                                     Global Securities to be exchanged exceed
                                     $500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount,
                                     one Global Security will be authenticated
                                     and issued to represent each $500,000,000
                                     of principal amount of the exchanged Global
                                     Securities and an additional Global
                                     Security will be authenticated and issued
                                     to represent any remaining principal amount
                                     of such Global Securities (see
                                     "Denominations" below).

Maturities:                          Each Book-Entry Note will mature on a date
                                     nine months or more after the issue date
                                     for such Note. A Floating Rate Book-Entry
                                     Note will mature only on an Interest
                                     Payment Date for such Note.

Denominations:                       Book-Entry Notes will be issued in
                                     principal amounts of $1,000 or any amount
                                     in excess thereof that is an integral
                                     multiple of $1,000. If Book-Entry Notes are
                                     denominated in a Specified Currency other
                                     than U.S. dollars, the denominations of
                                     such Notes will be determined pursuant to
                                     the provisions of the applicable Pricing
                                     Supplement. Global Securities will be
                                     denominated in principal amounts not in
                                     excess of $500,000,000 (or the equivalent
                                     thereof). If one or more Book-Entry Notes
                                     having an aggregate principal amount in
                                     excess of $500,000,000 (or the equivalent
                                     thereof) would, but for the preceding
                                     sentence, be represented by a single Global
                                     Security, then one Global Security will be
                                     authenticated and issued to represent each
                                     $500,000,000 principal amount (or the
                                     equivalent thereof) of such Book-Entry Note
                                     or Notes and an additional Global Security
                                     will be authenticated

                                      B-6

                                     and issued to represent any remaining
                                     principal amount of such Book-Entry Note or
                                     Notes. In such a case, each of the Global
                                     Securities representing such Book-Entry
                                     Note or Notes shall be assigned the same
                                     CUSIP number.

Notice of Redemption Dates:          The DTC Agent will, with respect to the
                                     Notes, give notice to DTC prior to each
                                     Redemption Date (as specified in the Note)
                                     if any at the time and in the manner set
                                     forth in the applicable Letter of

Interest:                            General. Unless otherwise indicated in the
                                     applicable Pricing Supplement, interest, if
                                     any, on each Book-Entry Note will accrue
                                     from the Original Issue Date (or such other
                                     date on which interest otherwise begins to
                                     accrue (if different than the Original
                                     Issue Date)) of the Global Security
                                     representing such Book-Entry Note for the
                                     first interest period or the last date to
                                     which interest has been paid, if any, for
                                     each subsequent interest period, on the
                                     Global Security representing such
                                     Book-Entry Note, and will be calculated and
                                     paid in the manner and on the Interest
                                     Payment Dates described in such Book-Entry

                                     Supplement. Unless otherwise specified,
                                     each payment of interest on a Book-Entry
                                     Note will include interest accrued to but
                                     excluding the Interest Payment Date;
                                     provided, that in the case of Floating Rate

                                     payments will include interest accrued to

                                     on the following Interest Payment Date
                                     (other than an Interest Payment Date
                                     coinciding with Maturity) and the total of
                                     such amounts. DTC will confirm the amount
                                     payable on each Global Security on such
                                     Interest Payment Date by reference to the

                                     Payment." If any Interest Payment Date for
                                     a Book-Entry Note is not a Business Day,
                                     the payment due on such day shall be made
                                     on the next succeeding Business Day and no
                                     interest shall accrue as a result of such
                                     delayed payment. In the case of a Floating

                                     if postponement to the next business day
                                     would cause the interest payment date to be
                                     in the next succeeding calendar month, the
                                     Interest Payment Date will instead be the
                                     immediately preceding Business Day.

                                        Payments at Maturity or Upon Redemption.
                                        On or about the first Business Day of
                                        each month, the DTC Agent will, with
                                        respect to the Global Securities for
                                        which it acts as DTC Agent, deliver to
                                        the Company, DTC and the Trustee a
                                        written list of principal and interest
                                        to be paid on each Global Security
                                        maturing either at Maturity or on a
                                        Redemption Date in the following month.
                                        The DTC Agent for each Global Security,
                                        the Company and DTC will confirm the
                                        amounts of such principal and interest
                                        payments with respect to each such
                                        Global Security on or about the fifth
                                        Business Day preceding the Maturity Date

                                        Security. On or before such Maturity or
                                        Redemption, the Company will pay to

                                        issued as of the date of its

                                        bear an Original Issue Date, which will
                                        be (i) with respect to an original
                                        Certificated Note (or any portion
                                        thereof), its original issuance date
                                        (which will be the settlement date) and

                                        Note (or portion thereof) issued
                                        subsequently upon transfer or exchange
                                        of a Certificated Note or in lieu of a
                                        destroyed, lost or stolen Certificated

                                        of such subsequently issued Certificated

The General Counsel -- Capital Markets (or other counsel for the Company reasonably acceptable to the Agent) will furnish pursuant to Section 4(b)(i) of the Distribution Agreement the following opinions, in substantially the form set forth below (subject to the limitations, assumptions, qualifications and exceptions set forth therein)(capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning contained in the Distribution Agreement):

1. The Company has been duly incorporated and is an existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Prospectus;

2. The Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in good standing in all jurisdictions in which it owns or leases substantial properties or in which the conduct of its business requires such qualification and the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on the Company;

3. Each Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company, has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act and constitutes a legal, valid and binding instrument enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms (subject, as to enforcement, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and subject further, as to enforcement, to any limitations as a result of (x) requirements that a claim with respect to any Notes denominated other than in U.S. dollars (or a foreign currency or foreign currency unit judgment in respect of such claim) be converted into U.S. dollars at a rate of exchange prevailing on a date determined pursuant to applicable law or (y) governmental authority to limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments in foreign currency or currency units or payments outside the United States);

4. The Notes have been validly authorized and, when duly executed by the proper officers of the Company, duly authenticated by the Trustees and delivered as contemplated by the Distribution Agreement and by the Indentures, will be validly issued and outstanding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indentures (subject, as to enforcement, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and subject further, as to enforcement, to any limitations as a result of (x) requirements that a claim with respect to any Notes denominated other than in U.S. dollars (or a foreign currency or foreign currency unit judgment in respect of such claim) be converted into U.S. dollars at a rate

C-1

of exchange prevailing on a date determined pursuant to applicable law or (y) governmental authority to limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments in foreign currency or currency units or payments outside the United States) and conform in all material respects to the description thereof in the Prospectus dated , 20 and the Prospectus Supplement dated , 20 (together, the "Prospectus");

5. Each Indenture conforms in all material respects to the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus;

6. The Distribution Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company;

7. No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency, authority or body is required for the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Distribution Agreement or in the Indentures, except such as have been obtained under the Act and the Trust Indenture Act and such as may be required under the securities or Blue Sky laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the sale of the Notes;

8. The execution, delivery and performance of the Indentures and the Distribution Agreement will not, and the issuance and sale of the Notes in compliance with the terms and provisions thereof, if they were issued on the date hereof, would not, result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, any statute, any rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court having jurisdiction over the Company or any material subsidiary of the Company or any of their properties or any agreement or instrument known to such counsel to which the Company or any material subsidiary of the Company is a party or by which the Company or any such material subsidiary is bound or to which any of the properties of the Company or any such material subsidiary is subject, or the charter or By-Laws of the Company or of any such material subsidiary except that no opinion is expressed in this paragraph 8 with respect to (i) the rights to indemnity and contribution contained in the Distribution Agreement which may be limited by federal or state securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws or (ii) any state securities or Blue Sky laws; and

9. The Company's Registration Statement (the "Registration Statement") on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333- ) was declared effective under the Act, and, to the best of such counsel's knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or have been communicated by the Securities and Exchange Commission to the Company as being contemplated by it under the Act. The Registration Statement, as of its effective date, and the Prospectus as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Act, the Exchange Act and the Trust Indenture Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder (except as to the financial statements or other data of a financial or statistical nature or the Statements of Eligibility (Forms T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act of the Trustees, as to which no opinion is expressed); such counsel has no reason to

C-2

believe that the Registration Statement, as of its effective date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or that the Prospectus, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (except as to the financial statements or other data of a financial or statistical nature, as to which no opinion is expressed). The descriptions in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus of statutes, legal and governmental proceedings and contracts and other documents are accurate and fairly present the information required to be shown; and such counsel does not know of any legal or governmental proceedings required to be described in the Prospectus which are not described as required or of any contracts or documents of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement which are not described and filed as required; except that such counsel does not express any opinion as to the financial statements or other data of a financial or statistical nature contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. While such counsel has not independently verified and does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements, except as expressly referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the foregoing opinion in the second and third sentences in this paragraph 9 is based upon such counsel's review and discussion with members of the Company's legal staff who participated in the preparation of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (including any documents annexed thereto or incorporated by reference therein) and any amendments and supplements thereto, review and discussion of the contents thereof (including any such annexed or incorporated documents) and the knowledge such counsel has gained in his/her capacity as General Counsel -- Capital Markets to the Company, but without any independent check or verification on such counsel's part.

1.

Amount (if less than entire principal amount) as to which election may be exercised:


CITIGROUP INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the "Company"), for value received hereby promises to pay CEDE & CO. or registered assigns, (a) the Principal Amount or, in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount adjusted by reference to prices, changes in prices, or differences between prices, of securities, currencies, intangibles, goods, articles or commodities or by such other objective price, economic or other measures (an "Index") as described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, in the Specified Currency on the Stated Maturity shown above, or earlier if and to the extent so provided herein, and (b) accrued interest on the Principal Amount then outstanding (or in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount, then outstanding) at the Interest Rate shown above from the Original Issue Date shown above or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates specified on the face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and at Maturity, until, in either case, the Principal Amount then outstanding or the Face Amount is paid or duly provided for in accordance with the terms hereof. Unless otherwise specified herein, interest on this Note, if any, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which (other than interest payable at Maturity) shall be the date (whether or not a Business Day) fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, and, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity, shall be the Stated Maturity of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof 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 for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (referred to on the reverse hereof), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than fifteen 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 said Indenture. If an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, however, that any payment required to be made in respect of such Note on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a


Business Day for such Note need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment. However, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue to Pay" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and any Interest Payment Date with respect to such Fixed Rate Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day. Each payment of interest in respect of an Interest Payment Date shall include interest accrued through the day before such Interest Payment Date.

For purposes of this Note, (A) "Business Day" means: (i) with respect to any Note, any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in The City of New York, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii) with respect to LIBOR Notes only, any such day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market; (iii) with respect to Notes having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars only, other than Notes denominated in euros, any day that, in the principal financial center (as defined below) of the country of the specified currency, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law to close; and (iv) with respect to EURIBOR Notes and Notes denominated in euros, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer ("TARGET") System is open, and (B) "London Business Day" means, with respect to any determination by the Exchange Rate Agent of an exchange rate pursuant to Notes having a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, any day on which banking institutions and foreign exchange markets settle payments in New York City and London.

As used above, a "principal financial center" means the capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with respect to Australian dollars, Canadian dollars and Swiss francs, the principal financial center shall be Sydney, Toronto and Zurich, respectively.

If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an index (as described above).

The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S. dollars in the manner described on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if so indicated above, elect to receive all payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency by delivery of a written notice to Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the


applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to Citibank received not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. If the Company determines that the Specified Currency is not available for making payments in respect hereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control or is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions or within the international banking community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to receive payments in the Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election shall be automatically suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until the Company determines that the Specified Currency is again available for making such payments.

Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest payable at Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register on the applicable Record Date, provided, that, if the Holder hereof is the Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a currency other than U.S. dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor and term, such U.S. dollar interest payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, but only if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by Citibank not less than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with any election by the Holder hereof to receive payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency (if other than U.S. dollars), such Holder shall provide appropriate wire transfer instructions to Citibank and all such payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located outside the United States. The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon payable at Maturity will be paid in immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the offices of Citibank located in the City and State of New York.

REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF AND IN ANY PRICING SUPPLEMENT ATTACHED HERETO OR DELIVERED HEREWITH, AND SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGH FULLY SET FORTH IN THIS PLACE.

This Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose unless and until this Note has been authenticated by, or on behalf of, The Bank of New York, or its successor, as Trustee.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Note to be executed under its corporate seal.

General

This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one or more series under an indenture, dated as of March 15, 1987, as amended (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 Debt Securities and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public offering price or purchase price of Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars will be determined by the Company or its agent, as exchange rate agent for the Notes (the "Exchange Rate Agent") on the basis of, unless otherwise specified in the pricing supplement, the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate") for such currencies on the applicable issue dates.

The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless otherwise specified above, the authorized denominations of Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000 and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized denominations of Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be as set forth on the respective faces thereof.

Each Note will be issued initially as either a Book-Entry Note or, if so specified above, a Certificated Note. Book-Entry Notes will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes and, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, will not otherwise be issuable as Certificated Notes.

Fixed Rate Notes

This Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date, or from the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, at the rate per annum on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith until the principal amount hereof is paid or made available for payment, except as otherwise described below under "Subsequent Interest Periods" and "Extension of Maturity," and except that if so specified in the attached pricing


supplement, the rate of interest payable on certain Fixed Rate Notes may be subject to adjustment as specified therein.

Unless otherwise set forth herein, interest on this Note will be payable semiannually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates set forth above and at Stated Maturity. If an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, however, that any payment required to be made in respect of such Note on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a Business Day for such Note need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment. However, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue to Pay" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and any Interest Payment Date with respect to such Fixed Rate Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day.

Each payment of interest in respect of an Interest Payment Date shall include interest accrued through the day before such Interest Payment Date. Unless otherwise specified herein, interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months ("30 over 360").

Subsequent Interest Periods

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest Rate on this Note may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Optional Reset Date"). Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the Interest Rate, and if so, (i) such new Interest Rate and (ii) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date, or, if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity of this Note (each such period, a "Subsequent Interest Period"), including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the Trustee of a Reset Notice to the holder of a Note, such new interest rate shall take effect automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below, such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Interest Rate provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Interest Rate for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Interest Rate to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with respect to which the


Interest Rate is reset on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Interest Rate whether or not tendered for repayment.

The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect repayment by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date, and except that if the Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, then the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement, is determined by reference to the amount designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the Face Amount of this Note and by reference to the Index as described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or any earlier redemption or repayment of this Note may be different from the Face Amount.

If a third party is appointed to calculate or announce the Index for a particular Indexed Note and this third party either suspends the calculation or announcement of such Index or changes the basis upon which such Index is calculated, in a manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing supplement, then the Company will select another third party to calculate or announce the Index. The agent or another affiliate of the Company may be either the original or successor third party selected by the Company.

If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original third party, then the indexed interest payments, if any, or any indexed principal amount of such Indexed Principal Note will be calculated in the manner set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Any determination by the selected third party will be binding on all parties, except in the case of an obvious error.

Specified Currency

If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be determined by the Company or its agent based on the Specified Currency/U.S. dollar exchange rate prevailing at 11:00 a.m., London time, on the second London Business Day prior to


the applicable payment date, or if an exchange rate bid quotation is not so available, the Exchange Rate Agent shall obtain a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in London selected by the Exchange Rate Agent after consultation with the Company, for settlement on such payment date, of the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable on such payment date in respect of all Notes denominated in such Specified Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are available, then such payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will be made as described in the next paragraph.

Payments in Currencies Other than the Specified Currency

Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such currency is (i) unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control, (ii) is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or (iii) is no longer used for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency is again available or so used. The amount so payable on any date in such foreign currency shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall, in all cases, be deemed immediately following such redenomination to provide for the payment of that amount of redenominated currency representing the amount of such obligations immediately before such redenomination. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the following paragraph.


Dual Currency Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the Company may have a one time option, exercisable on one or more dates (each an "Option Election Date") in whole, but not in part, with respect to all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and having the same terms (a "Tranche"), of thereafter making all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest
(which payments would otherwise be made in the Specified Currency of such Notes)
in an optional currency (the "Optional Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If such election is made, notice of such election shall be mailed in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tranche of Dual Currency Notes within two Business Days of the Option Election Date and shall state (i) the first date, whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated Maturity, on which scheduled payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be made and (ii) the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once given, may not be withdrawn. The equivalent value in the Specified Currency of payments made after such an election may be less, at the then current exchange rate, than if the Company had made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in accordance with the following procedures:

On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date (each, together with the Initial Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after


such Renewal Date, if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15 nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon each subsequent Holder of this Note. An election to renew the term of this Note may be exercised with respect to less than the entire principal amount of this Note only if so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and then only in such principal amount, or any integral multiple in excess of such amount, as is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term of this Note may not be extended beyond the Stated Maturity specified for this Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall have a fixed, nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount of such Holder's Note, the Trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, shall issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such holder, a replacement Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Maturity

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Maturity of this Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five whole years, up to but not beyond, the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Company may exercise such option by


notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the "Extension Notice") first class, postage prepaid indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the Interest Rate applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period including the date or dates on which, or the period or periods during which, and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the extension period. Upon the Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of this Note shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Interest Rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher Interest Rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Interest Rate, first class, postage prepaid to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher Interest Rate for the extension period, whether or not tendered for repayment.

If the Company extends the Stated Maturity of this Note, the Holder will have the option to elect repayment of this Note by the Company on the old Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on such old Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Stated Maturity hereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery of this Note or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days before the old Stated Maturity, and except that if the Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the old Stated Maturity.

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an "Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption Price") (together with accrued interest to such Optional Redemption Date) specified herein. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee shall mail to the Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage prepaid at least 30 days prior to the date of redemption. Unless otherwise stated herein, the Company may exercise such option with respect to a redemption of this Note in part only by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45 days prior to any Optional Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a


new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued to the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will be repayable prior to Maturity at the option of the Holder on the Optional Repayment Dates shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith at the Optional Repayment Prices shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, together with interest accrued to the date of repayment. In order for this Note to be repaid, the Trustee must receive at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an Optional Repayment Date (i) this Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States of America setting forth the name of the Holder of this Note, the principal amount of the Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Note, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised hereby and a guarantee that this Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed will be received by the Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. If the guarantee procedure described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is followed, this Note with form duly completed must be received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Any tender of this Note for repayment (except pursuant to a Reset Notice or an Extension Notice) shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised by the Holder of this Note for less than the entire principal amount of the Note, provided, that the principal amount of this Note remaining outstanding after repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial repayment, this Note shall be canceled and a new Note or Notes for the remaining principal amount hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Note.

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will not be subject to any sinking fund.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if this Note is an OID Note (other than an Indexed Principal Note), the amount payable in the event of redemption or repayment prior to the Stated Maturity hereof (other than pursuant to an optional redemption by the Company at a stated Redemption Price), shall be the Amortized Face Amount of this Note as of the redemption date or the date of repayment, as the case may be. The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith plus
(ii) that portion of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith or (y) if so


specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles), provided, however, that in no event shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount. The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith shall be computed on the basis of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note is not redeemed on such first occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield to Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional Redemption Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so recomputed on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so redeemed.

The Company may at any time purchase Notes at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may, at the discretion of the Company, be held or resold or surrendered to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation.

Other Terms

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Person surrendering the same.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable 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 and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

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 Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the Holder 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.


If an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all the Debt Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in this manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft, or destruction hereof (together with such indemnity and such other documents or proof as may be required by the Company or the Trustee) shall be delivered to the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount will be issued by the Company in exchange for, or in lieu of, this Note. All expenses and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Note shall be borne by the Holder of this Note.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities at the time outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of any series at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Debt Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debt Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debt Security and of any Debt Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon the Debt Security.

Holders of Debt Securities may not enforce their rights pursuant to the Indenture or the Note except as provided in the Indenture. 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 premium, if any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made and to be performed solely in the State of New York and for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of said State without regard to the conflicts of law rules of said State.

All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on each Interest Payment Date specified herein will, as provided in the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which, unless otherwise specified in the pricing supplement, in the case of any Interest Payment Date (i) for a Floating Rate Note shall be the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date and (ii) for an Indexed Rate Note, an Inverse Floating Rate Note and a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note, shall be the date (whether or not a Business Day) fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, in the case of any Interest Payment Date shall be the date (whether or not a Business Day), fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date and, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity shall be the Stated Maturity of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof 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 for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (referred to on the reverse hereof), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than fifteen 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 said Indenture.


For purposes of this Note, "Business Day" means: (i) with respect to any Note, any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in The City of New York, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii) (x) with respect to LIBOR Notes only, any such day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market and (y) with respect to any determination by the Exchange Rate Agent of an exchange rate pursuant to Notes having a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, any day on which banking institutions and foreign exchange markets settle payments in New York City and London (each a "London Business Day"); (iii) with respect to Notes having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars only, other than Notes denominated in euros, any day that, in the principal financial center (as defined below) of the country of the specified currency, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law to close; and (iv) with respect to EURIBOR Notes and Notes denominated in euros, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer ("TARGET") System is open (a "TARGET Business Day").

As used above, a "principal financial center" means the capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with respect to Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, and Swiss francs, the principal financial center shall be Sydney, Toronto and Zurich, respectively.

If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an index (as described above).

The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S. dollars in the manner described on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if so indicated above, elect to receive all payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency by delivery of a written notice to Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to Citibank received not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. If the Company determines that the Specified Currency is not available for making payments in respect hereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control or is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions or within the international banking community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to receive payments in the Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election shall be automatically suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until the Company determines that the Specified Currency is again available for making such payments.

Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest payable at Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall


appear on the Security Register on the applicable Record Date, provided, that, if the Holder hereof is the Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a currency other than U.S. dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor and term, such U.S. dollar interest payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, but only if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by Citibank not less than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with any election by the Holder hereof to receive payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency (if other than U.S. dollars), such Holder shall provide appropriate wire transfer instructions to Citibank and all such payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located outside the United States. The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon payable at Maturity will be paid in immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the offices of Citibank located in the City and State of New York.

REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF AND IN ANY PRICING SUPPLEMENT ATTACHED HERETO OR DELIVERED HEREWITH, AND SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGH FULLY SET FORTH IN THIS PLACE.

This Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose unless and until this Note has been authenticated by, or on behalf of, The Bank of New York, or its successor, as Trustee.

General

This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one or more series under an indenture, dated as of March 15, 1987, as amended (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 Debt Securities and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public offering price or purchase price of Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars will be determined by the Company or its agent, as exchange rate agent for the Notes (the "Exchange Rate Agent") on the basis of, unless otherwise specified in the pricing supplement, the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate") for such currencies on the applicable issue dates.

The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless otherwise specified above, the authorized denominations of Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000 and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized denominations of Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be as set forth on the respective faces thereof.

Each Note will be issued initially as either a Book-Entry Note or, if so specified above, a Certificated Note. Book-Entry Notes will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes and, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, will not otherwise be issuable as Certificated Notes.

Floating Rate Notes

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, if this Note is a Floating Rate Note, this Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date to, but not including, the first Interest Reset Date (as defined below) at the Initial Interest Rate set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Thereafter, the interest rate hereon for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by reference to the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, plus or minus the Spread, if any, or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Base Rates that may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith are the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR Moneyline Telerate, LIBOR Reuters, the Treasury Rate, Treasury Rate Constant Maturity, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, EURIBOR or any other Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.


"H.15(519)" means the publication entitled "Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates" or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

"H.15 Daily Update" means the daily update of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.bog.frb.fed.us/releases/H15/update or any successor site or publication.

"Calculation Date," where applicable, means the date on which the Calculation Agent is to calculate the interest rate for Floating Rate Notes which shall be the earlier of (1) the tenth calendar day after the related Rate Determination Date, or if any such day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day or (2) the business day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

As specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note may also have either or both of the following (in each case expressed as a rate per annum on a simple interest basis): (i) a maximum limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period ("Maximum Interest Rate") and/or (ii) a minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period ("Minimum Interest Rate"). In addition to any Maximum Interest Rate that may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest rate will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.

The Company will appoint, and enter into an agreement with, agents (each, a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on this Note. All determinations of interest rates by the Calculation Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder hereof. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, The Bank of New York shall be the Calculation Agent for this Note. At the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.

The interest rate hereon will be reset daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually (such period being the "Interest Reset Period" specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and the first day of each Interest Reset Period being an "Interest Reset Date"). Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest Reset Dates will be as follows: (i) if this Note resets daily, each Business Day; (ii) if this Note (unless this Note is a Treasury Rate Note) resets weekly, Wednesday of each week; (iii) if this Note is a Treasury Rate Note that resets weekly, Tuesday of each week (except as provided below under "Determination of Treasury Rate"); (iv) if this Note resets monthly, the third Wednesday of each month (with the exception of monthly reset Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes, which reset on the first calendar day of each month); (v) if this Note resets quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; (vi) if this Note resets semiannually, the third Wednesday of the two months of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith; (vii) and if this Note resets annually, the third Wednesday of the month of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If an Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such


Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall instead be the immediately preceding Business Day. If an auction of direct obligations of United States Treasury Bills falls on a day that is an Interest Reset Date for Treasury Rate Notes, the Interest Reset Date shall be the succeeding Business Day.

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest payable hereon on each Interest Payment Date shall be the interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date or the last date to which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding such Interest Payment Date, provided, however, that if the interest rate is reset daily or weekly, the interest payable hereon shall be the interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date or the last date to which interest has been accrued and paid, as the case may be, to but excluding the Record Date immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, except that, at Maturity, the interest payable will include interest accrued to, but excluding, the date of Maturity.

If more than one Interest Reset Date occurs during any period for which accrued interest is being calculated, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount hereof (or if this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor (expressed as a decimal calculated to seven decimal places without rounding) for each such day will be computed, unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, by dividing the interest rate in effect on such day by 360 if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR Moneyline Telerate, LIBOR Reuters, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate or EURIBOR or by the actual number of days in the year, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or Treasury Rate Constant Maturity. For purposes of making the foregoing calculations, the interest rate in effect on any Interest Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such date. In all other cases, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount hereof (or if this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) by the interest rate in effect during the period for which accrued interest is being calculated, and multiplying that product by the quotient obtained by dividing the number of days in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated by 360 if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR Moneyline Telerate, LIBOR Reuters, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate or EURIBOR or by the actual number of days in the year, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or Treasury Rate Constant Maturity.

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, all percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest hereof will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all currency amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a unit (with .005 of a unit being rounded upward).

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest will be payable as follows: (i) if this Note resets


daily, weekly or monthly (other than Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes), interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year, as specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith or, (ii) in the case of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes, interest will be payable on the first calendar day of each March, June, September and December; (iii) if this Note resets quarterly, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; (iv) if this Note resets semiannually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each of two months of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith; and (v) if this Note resets annually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of the month of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and in each case at Maturity (each such day being an "Interest Payment Date"). If an Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date shall instead be the immediately preceding Business Day, provided, however, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue to Pay" is not specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, if an Interest Payment Date with respect to such Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, further, that any payment required to be made in respect of a Note that does not Accrue to Pay on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a Business Day for such Note need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

Upon the request of the holder of this Floating Rate Note, the Calculation Agent for the Note will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date with respect to the Note.

Subject to applicable provisions of law and except as specified herein, on each Interest Reset Date the rate of interest shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below.

Determination of CD Rate

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the CD Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "CD Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the rate as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "CD Rate Determination Date") for negotiable certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as published in H.15(519) under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)."

The following procedures will be followed if the CD Rate cannot be determined as described above. If the above rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the CD Rate Determination Date, then the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on the CD Rate Determination Date for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as published in the H.15 Daily Update,


or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)." If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published, then the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the CD Rate Determination Date of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money center banks of the highest credit standing (in the market for negotiable certificates of deposit) with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith in a denomination of $5,000,000, provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the CD Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial Interest Rate).

CD Rate Notes, like other Notes, are not deposit obligations of a bank and are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Determination of Commercial Paper Rate

If the Base Rate shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Commercial Paper Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Commercial Paper Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Commercial Paper Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date") and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the heading "Commercial Paper -- Nonfinancial."

The following procedures will be followed if the Commercial Paper Rate cannot be determined as described above. In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield on the Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of the specified Index Maturity as published in the H.15 Daily Update under the heading "Commercial Paper -- Nonfinancial." If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published, then the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of three leading dealers of U.S. dollar commercial paper in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith placed for an industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a nationally recognized rating agency, provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).


"Money Market Yield" shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula:

                         D x 360
Money Market Yield =  ------------- X 100
                      360 - (D x M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal and "M" refers to the actual number of days in the applicable Interest Reset Period.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Federal Funds Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Federal Funds Rate and Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Federal Funds Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the effective rate on the business day immediately preceeding the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Federal Funds Rate Determination Date") for U.S. dollar Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)" and displayed on Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on Page 120 or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service.

The following procedures will be followed if the Federal Funds Rate cannot be determined as described above. In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the Federal Funds Rate Determination Date, the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the rate on the Federal Funds Rate Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)," or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate. If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published, then the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds arranged by three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time on the Federal Funds Rate Determination Date; provided, however, that if the brokers so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned above, the Federal Funds Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the particular Federal Funds Rate Determination Date (or, if there is no such Federal Funds Rate in effect for the Interest Reset Period, the Federal Funds Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of LIBOR

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR Moneyline Telerate or LIBOR Reuters, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to LIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. "LIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as follows.

On the second London Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), the Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for deposits in the Specified Currency for the period of the Index


Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appear on the Designated LIBOR Page at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on such LIBOR Determination Date. "Designated LIBOR Page" means either (a) if "LIBOR Moneyline Telerate" is designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the display designated as page "3750" on the Moneyline Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace page "3750" on such service or such other successor service selected for the purpose of displaying the London interbank offered rates of major banks), and LIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant offered rate as determined by the Calculation Agent; or (b) if "LIBOR Reuters" is designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, "Designated LIBOR Page" means the display designated as page "LIBO" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service and LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of the offered rates, calculated by the calculation agent, or the offered rate, if the Designated LIBOR Page by its terms provides only for a single rate. If the LIBO page on such service is replaced by another page, or if the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service is replaced by a successor service, then ""LIBOR Reuters" means the replacement page or service selected to display the London interbank offered rates of major banks. If neither LIBOR Reuters nor LIBOR Moneyline Telerate is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, LIBOR will be determined as if LIBOR Moneyline Telerate had been specified.

If LIBOR cannot be determined as described above, the Calculation Agent will determine "LIBOR" as follows. The Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of each of four major banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotations for deposits in the Specified Currency for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date and such offered quotations will be in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or its approximate equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time. If two or more such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If less than two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Note at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the LIBOR Determination Date for loans in the Specified Currency to leading European banks for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, and in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time, provided, however, that if fewer than three banks selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are quoting rates as mentioned in this sentence, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as LIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the LIBOR Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of Treasury Rate

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or Treasury Rate Constant Maturity, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Treasury Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Unless "Constant Maturity" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith,


the "Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate for the auction held on the Treasury Rate Determination Date (as defined below) for such Interest Reset Period of direct obligations of the United States ("Treasury Securities") that have the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as such rate appears on either Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on Page 56 (or any other page as may replace the page on that service) or on Page 57 (or any other page as may replace the page on that service) under the heading "INVESTMENT RATE." The following procedures will be followed if the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as described above. If not so published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the Treasury Rate Determination Date, the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the Bond Equivalent Yield (as defined below) of the rate for the applicable treasury securities as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High." In the event that this rate is not so published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the auction rate of the applicable treasury securities as announced by the United States Department of the Treasury. If this rate is not announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held, then the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on the Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Securities as published in H.15(519) under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market." If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date that rate is not so published in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on the Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Securities as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.'" If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date this rate is not so published in H.15 Daily Update, then the Treasury Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on the Treasury Rate Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three primary United States government securities dealers selected by the calculation agent, for the issue of Treasury Securities with a remaining maturity closest to the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement, provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this sentence, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial Interest Rate).

The "Treasury Rate Determination Date" for each Interest Reset Period will be the day of the week in which the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period falls on which Treasury Securities would normally be auctioned. Treasury Securities are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Period commencing in the next succeeding week. If an auction date shall fall on any day that would otherwise be an Interest Reset Date for a Treasury Rate Note, then such Interest Reset Date shall instead be the Business Day immediately following such auction date.

The "Bond Equivalent Yield" will be calculated as follows:

D X N

Bond Equivalent Yield = ------------- X 100
360 - (D X M)


where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Securities quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, "N" refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and "M" refers to the actual number of days in the applicable Interest Reset Period.

If "Constant Maturity" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate displayed on the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities" under the column for the Designated CMT Maturity Index in the following manner (1) if the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page is 7051, the Treasury Rate will be the rate on such Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date provided, however, (A) if the rate does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 7051, then the Treasury Rate will be the treasury constant maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as published in the relevant H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," or (B) if that rate does not so appear in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate will be the constant treasury maturity rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as may then be published by either the Federal Reserve System Board of Governors or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would have otherwise been published in H.15(519), and (2) if the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page is 7052, then the Treasury Rate will be the weekly or monthly average, as specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, for the week or the month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date occurs provided, however, (A) if the rate referred to above does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 7052, then the Treasury Rate will be the one-week or one-month, as specified on the face hereof or in the applicable pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, average of the treasury constant maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index for the week or month as applicable, preceding the Constant Maturity Treasury Determination Date as published in the relevant H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," or (B) if that rate does not so appear in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate will be the one-week or one-month, as specified on the face hereof or in the applicable pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, average of the constant treasury maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date falls.

The following procedures will be followed in the order set forth below if the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as indicated in (1) or (2) above. If such information, as applicable, is not so published, then the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as follows. Such Treasury Rate will be a yield to maturity, based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date of three leading U.S. government securities dealers in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, one of which may be the Agent, from five such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent and eliminating the highest and lowest quotations, or in the event of equality, one of the highest, and the lowest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States treasury securities ("Treasury Notes"), with an original maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining term to maturity of not less than such Designated CMT Maturity Index minus one year and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities market at that time.


If three or four, but not five, of such dealers provide quotations as described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes will be eliminated.

If the Calculation Agent is unable to obtain three such Treasury Note quotations, the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as follows. Such Treasury Rate will be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date reported, according to their written records, by three leading U.S. government securities dealers in the City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for Treasury Notes with an original maturity of the number of years that is the next highest to the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. The three government securities dealers referenced above will be identified from five such dealers who are selected by the calculation agent, one of which may be the agent, by eliminating the dealers with the highest and lowest quotations, or in the event of equality, one of the highest and/or lowest quotation, as the case may require.

If two Treasury Notes with an original maturity, as described herein, have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Designated CMT Maturity Index, the Calculation Agent will obtain quotations for the Treasury Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity and will use such quotations to calculate the Treasury Rate as set forth herein.

If three or four, and not five, of such dealers are quoting as described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the offer prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes will be eliminated. However,if fewer than three of such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent provide quotations as described above, the Treasury Rate determined as of the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be the Treasury Rate in effect on such Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date.

"Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page" means the display on the Telerate Service, or any successor service on the page specified in the applicable pricing supplement, or any other page as may replace such page on that service, or any successor service, for the purpose of displaying Treasury Constant Maturities as reported in H.15(519). If no such page is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page shall be 7052, for the most recent week.

"Designated CMT Maturity Index" means the original period to maturity of the U.S. Treasury securities, either one, two, three, five, seven, ten, twenty or thirty years, specified in the applicable pricing supplement with respect to which the Treasury Rate will be calculated. If no such maturity is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the Designated CMT Maturity Index shall be two years.

"The Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date" shall be the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for the applicable Interest Reset Period.

Determination of Prime Rate

Prime Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rates (calculated with reference to the Prime Rate and the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any) specified in the Prime Rate Notes and in the applicable pricing supplement.


Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Prime Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent for such Prime Rate Note as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Prime Rate Determination Date") and shall be the rate made available and subsequently published on such date in H.15(519) under the heading "Bank Prime Loan." The following procedures will be followed if the Prime Rate cannot be determined as described above. If the above rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Prime Rate will be the rate on the Prime Rate Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "Bank Prime Loan." In the event that such rate has not been published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the Prime Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page (as defined below) as such bank's prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 A.M. New York City time, on the Prime Rate Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates appear on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page for the Prime Rate Determination Date, the rate shall be the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by 360 as of the close of business on the Prime Rate Determination Date by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent. However, if the banks so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in the previous sentence, the Prime Rate will be the Prime Rate in effect on the Prime Rate Determination Date. "Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page" means the display designated as page "USPRIME1" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace the USPRIME1 page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks).

Determination of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate

Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rates (calculated by reference to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate and the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any) specified in the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes and in the applicable pricing supplement.

Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate," for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Note as of the last working day of the month immediately prior to such Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period on which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the "FHLB of San Francisco") publishes the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index (as defined below) (the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date"), and shall be the rate equal to the monthly weighted average cost of funds for the calendar month preceding such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date as set forth under the caption "Eleventh District" on the Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on Page 7058 as of 11:00 A.M., San Francisco time, on such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date.

The following procedures will be followed if the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate cannot be determined as described above. If such rate does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page (or any successor service) on 7058 on any related Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date shall be the monthly weighted average cost of funds paid by member institutions of the Eleventh Federal Home Loan Bank District that was most recently announced (the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Index") by the FHLB of San Francisco as


such cost of funds for the calendar month preceding the date of such announcement. If the FHLB of San Francisco fails to announce the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index on or prior to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date of the calendar month immediately preceding that date, then the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date will be the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate in effect on such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date.

Determination of EURIBOR

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is EURIBOR, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to EURIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. "EURIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as follows.

On the second TARGET Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "EURIBOR Determination Date"), the Calculation Agent for such EURIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for deposits in euros as sponsored, calculated and published jointly by the European Banking Federation and ACI - The Financial Market Association, or any company established by the joint sponsors for purposes of compiling and publishing those rates, for the period of the index maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appears on the Designated EURIBOR Page as of 11:00
a.m., Brussels time, on such EURIBOR Determination Date. "Designated EURIBOR Page" means the display designated as page "248" on the Telerate Service (or any successor service or such other page as may replace page "248" on such service), and EURIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant offered rate as determined by the Calculation Agent.

If EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above (either because the Designated EURIBOR Page is no longer available or because fewer than two offered rates appear on the Designated EURIBOR Page on the EURIBOR Determination Date), the Calculation Agent will determine "EURIBOR" as follows. The Calculation Agent will request the principal Euro-zone (as defined below) office of each of four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to provide the Calculation Agent with their respective offered quotations for deposits in euros for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the Euro-zone interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the EURIBOR Determination Date and such offered quotations will be in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or its approximate equivalent thereof in euros that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time. If two or more such quotations are provided, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If less than two such quotations are provided, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted by four major banks in the Euro-zone selected by the Calculation Agent for such EURIBOR Note at approximately 11:00
a.m., Brussels time, on the EURIBOR Determination Date for loans in euros to leading European banks for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, and in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent thereof in euros that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time, provided, however, that if the banks so selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as mentioned in this sentence, "EURIBOR" for such


Interest Reset Period will be the same as EURIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the EURIBOR Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

"Euro-zone" means the region comprised of member states of the European Union that adopt the single currency in accordance with the treaty establishing the European Community, as amended by the treaty on European Union.

Inverse Floating Rate Notes

If this Note is designated as an Inverse Floating Rate Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest rate on such Inverse Floating Rate shall be equal to (i) in the case of the period, if any, commencing on the Issue Date (or such other date which may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the date on which this Note shall begin to accrue interest), up to the first Interest Reset Date, the Initial Fixed Interest Rate shown above, and (ii) in the case of each period commencing on an Interest Reset Date, the Reset Fixed Reference Rate shown above minus the interest rate determined by reference to the Base Rate shown above, as adjusted by the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, as determined in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided, however, that on any Inverse Floating Rate Note the interest rate thereon will not be less than zero.

Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Notes

If this Note is designated as a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note, this Note will be a Floating Rate note for a specified portion of its term and a Fixed Rate Note for the remainder of its term, in which event the interest rate on this Note will be determined as provided herein as if it were a Floating Rate Note and a Fixed Rate Note hereunder for each such respective period, all as described herein and in the applicable pricing supplement.

Subsequent Interest Periods

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Spread or Spread Multiplier on this Note may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Optional Reset Date"). Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the Spread or Spread Multiplier, and if so, (i) such new Spread or Spread Multiplier and (ii) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date, or, if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity of this Note (each such period, a "Subsequent Interest Period"), including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the Trustee of a Reset Notice to the holder of a Note, such new interest rate shall take effect automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below, such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread or Spread Multiplier provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Spread or Spread Multiplier for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All


Notes with respect to which the Spread or Spread Multiplier is reset on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier whether or not tendered for repayment.

The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect repayment by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date, and except that if the Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

If this Note is an Indexed Note, then certain or all interest payments, in the case of an Indexed Rate Note, and/or the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement, in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, is determined by reference to the amount designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the Face Amount of this Note and by reference to the Index as described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is a Floating Rate Note or Indexed Rate Note that is also an Indexed Principal Note, the amount of any interest payment will be determined by reference to the Face Amount described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith unless otherwise specified. If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or any earlier redemption or repayment of this Note may be different from the Face Amount.

If a third party is appointed to calculate or announce the Index for a particular Indexed Note and this third party either suspends the calculation or announcement of such Index or changes the basis upon which such Index is calculated, in a manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing supplement, then the Company will select another third party to calculate or announce the Index. The agent or another affiliate of the Company may be either the original or successor third party selected by the Company.

If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original third party, then the indexed interest payments, if any, or any indexed principal amount of such Indexed Note will be calculated in the manner set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Any determination by the selected third party will be binding on all parties, except in the case of an obvious error.

Specified Currency

If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be determined by the Company or its agent based on the Specified Currency/U.S. dollar exchange rate prevailing at 11:00 a.m., London time, on the second London Business Day prior to the applicable payment date, or if an exchange rate bid quotation is not so available, the Exchange Rate Agent shall obtain a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in London selected by the Exchange Rate Agent after consultation with the Company, for settlement on such payment date, of the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable on such payment date in respect of all Notes denominated in such Specified Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are available, then such


payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will be made as described in the next paragraph.

Payments in Currencies Other than the Specified Currency

Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such currency is (i) unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control, (ii) is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or (iii) is no longer used for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency is again available or so used. The amount so payable on any date in such foreign currency shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall, in all cases, be deemed immediately following such redenomination to provide for the payment of that amount of redenominated currency representing the amount of such obligations immediately before such redenomination. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the following paragraph.

Dual Currency Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the Company may have a one time option, exercisable on one or more dates (each an "Option Election Date") in whole, but not in part, with respect to all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and having the same terms (a "Tranche"), of thereafter making all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest
(which payments would otherwise be made in the Specified Currency of such Notes)
in an optional currency (the "Optional Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If such election is made, notice of such election shall be mailed in accordance with the terms of the applicable


Tranche of Dual Currency Notes within two Business Days of the Option Election Date and shall state (i) the first date, whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated Maturity, on which scheduled payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be made and (ii) the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once given, may not be withdrawn. The equivalent value in the Specified Currency of payments made after such an election may be less, at the then current exchange rate, than if the Company had made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in accordance with the following procedures.

On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date (each, together with the Initial Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date, if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15 nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon each subsequent Holder of this Note. An election to renew the term of this Note may be exercised with respect to less than the entire principal amount of this Note only if so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and then only in such principal amount, or any integral multiple in excess of such amount, as is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term of this Note may not be extended beyond the Stated Maturity specified for this Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall have a fixed,


nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount of such Holder's Note, the Trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, shall issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such holder, a replacement Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Maturity

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Maturity of this Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five whole years, up to but not beyond, the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Company may exercise such option by notifying the Trustee of this Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the "Extension Notice") first class, postage prepaid indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the Spread or Spread Multiplier applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period including the date or dates on which, or the period or periods during which, and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the extension period. Upon the Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of this Note shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread or Spread Multiplier provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher Spread or Spread Multiplier for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier, first class, postage prepaid to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier for the extension period, whether or not tendered for repayment.

If the Company extends the Stated Maturity of this Note, the Holder will have the option to elect repayment of this Note by the Company on the old Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on such old Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Stated Maturity hereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery of this Note or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days before the such old Stated Maturity, and except that if the Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the old Stated Maturity.

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an "Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption Price") (together with interest accrued to such Optional Redemption Date) specified herein. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement


attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee shall mail to the Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage prepaid at least 30 days prior to the date of redemption. Unless otherwise stated herein, the Company may exercise such option with respect to a redemption of this Note in part only by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45 days prior to any Optional Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued to the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will be repayable prior to Maturity at the option of the Holder on the Optional Repayment Dates shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith at the Optional Repayment Prices shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, together with interest accrued to the date of repayment. In order for this Note to be repaid, the Trustee must receive at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an Optional Repayment Date (i) this Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States of America setting forth the name of the Holder of this Note, the principal amount of the Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Note, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised hereby and a guarantee that this Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed will be received by the Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. If the guarantee procedure described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is followed, this Note with form duly completed must be received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Any tender of this Note for repayment (except pursuant to a Reset Notice or an Extension Notice) shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised by the Holder of this Note for less than the entire principal amount of the Note, provided, that the principal amount of this Note remaining outstanding after repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial repayment, this Note shall be canceled and a new Note or Notes for the remaining principal amount hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Note.

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will not be subject to any sinking fund.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if this Note is an OID Note (other than an Indexed Note), the amount payable in the event of redemption or repayment prior to the Stated Maturity hereof (other than pursuant to an optional redemption by the Company at a stated Redemption Price) shall be the Amortized Face Amount of this Note as of the redemption date or the date of repayment, as the case may be. The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith plus
(ii) that portion of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith or (y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles), provided, however, that in no event shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount. The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith shall be computed on the basis of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note is not redeemed on such first


occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield to Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional Redemption Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so recomputed on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so redeemed.

The Company may at any time purchase Notes at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may, at the discretion of the Company, be held or resold or surrendered to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation.

CITIGROUP INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the "Company"), for value received hereby promises to pay CEDE & CO. or registered assigns, (a) the Principal Amount or, in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount adjusted by reference to prices, changes in prices, or differences between prices, of securities, currencies, intangibles, goods, articles or commodities or by such other objective price, economic or other measures (an "Index") as described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, in the Specified Currency on the Stated Maturity shown above, or earlier if and to the extent so provided herein, and (b) accrued interest on the Principal Amount then outstanding (or in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount, then outstanding) at the Interest Rate shown above from the Original Issue Date shown above or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates specified on the face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and at Maturity, until, in either case, the Principal Amount then outstanding or the Face Amount is paid or duly provided for in accordance with the terms hereof. Unless otherwise specified herein, interest on this Note, if any, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which (other than interest payable at Maturity) shall be the date (whether or not a Business Day) fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, and, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity, shall be the Stated Maturity of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof 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 for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (referred to on the reverse hereof), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than fifteen 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 said Indenture. If an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, however, that any payment required to be made in respect of such Note on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a Business Day for such Note need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment. However, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue to Pay" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and any Interest Payment Date with respect to such Fixed Rate Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed


to the next succeeding Business Day. Each payment of interest in respect of an Interest Payment Date shall include interest accrued through the day before such Interest Payment Date.

For purposes of this Note, (A) "Business Day" means: (i) with respect to any Note, any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in The City of New York, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii) with respect to LIBOR Notes only, any such day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market; (iii) with respect to Notes having a specified currency other than U.S. dollars only, other than Notes denominated in euros, any day that, in the principal financial center (as defined below) of the country of the specified currency, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law to close; and (iv) with respect to EURIBOR Notes and Notes denominated in euros, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer ("TARGET") System is open, and (B) "London Business Day" means, with respect to any determination by the Exchange Rate Agent of an exchange rate pursuant to Notes having a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, any day on which banking institutions and foreign exchange markets settle payments in New York City and London.

As used above, a "principal financial center" means the capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with respect to Australian dollars, Canadian dollars and Swiss francs, the principal financial center shall be Sydney, Toronto, and Zurich, respectively.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is, to the extent set forth in the Indenture, expressly subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness as defined in the Indenture, and this Note is issued subject to such provisions, and each Holder of this Note, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions and authorizes and directs the Trustee in his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination as provided in the Indenture and appoints the Trustee as his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an index (as described above).

The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S. dollars in the manner described on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if so indicated above, elect to receive all payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency by delivery of a written notice to Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to Citibank received not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. If the Company determines that the Specified Currency is not available for making payments in respect hereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other


circumstances beyond the Company's control or is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions or within the international banking community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to receive payments in the Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election shall be automatically suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until the Company determines that the Specified Currency is again available for making such payments.

Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest payable at Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register on the applicable Record Date, provided, that, if the Holder hereof is the Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a currency other than U.S. dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor and term, such U.S. dollar interest payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, but only if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by Citibank not less than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with any election by the Holder hereof to receive payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency (if other than U.S. dollars), such Holder shall provide appropriate wire transfer instructions to Citibank and all such payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located outside the United States. The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon payable at Maturity will be paid in immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the offices of Citibank located in the City and State of New York.

REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF AND IN ANY PRICING SUPPLEMENT ATTACHED HERETO OR DELIVERED HEREWITH, AND SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGH FULLY SET FORTH IN THIS PLACE.

This Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose unless and until this Note has been authenticated by, or on behalf of, Bank One Trust Company, N.A., or its successor, as Trustee.

CITIGROUP INC.
MEDIUM-TERM SUBORDINATED NOTE, SERIES H,
DUE NINE MONTHS OR MORE FROM THE DATE OF ISSUE
(FIXED RATE)

General

This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one or more series under an indenture, dated as of April 12, 2001, as the same may be amended from time to time (the "Indenture"), between the Company and Bank One Trust Company, N.A., 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 Debt Securities and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public offering price or purchase price of Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars will be determined by the Company or its agent, as exchange rate agent for the Notes (the "Exchange Rate Agent") on the basis of, unless otherwise specified in the pricing supplement, the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate") for such currencies on the applicable issue dates.

The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless otherwise specified above, the authorized denominations of Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000 and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized denominations of Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be as set forth on the respective faces thereof.

Each Note will be issued initially as either a Book-Entry Note or, if so specified above, a Certificated Note. Book-Entry Notes will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes and, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, will not otherwise be issuable as Certificated Notes.

Fixed Rate Notes

This Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date, or from the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, at the rate per annum stated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith until the principal amount hereof is paid or made available for payment, except as otherwise described below under "Subsequent Interest Periods" and "Extension of Maturity," and except that if so specified in the attached pricing supplement, the rate of interest payable on certain Fixed Rate Notes may be subject to adjustment as specified therein.


Unless otherwise set forth herein, interest on this Note will be payable semiannually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates set forth above and at Stated Maturity. If an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, however, that any payment required to be made in respect of such Note on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a Business Day for such Note need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment. However, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue to Pay" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and any Interest Payment Date with respect to such Fixed Rate Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day.

Each payment of interest in respect of an Interest Payment Date shall include interest accrued through the day before such Interest Payment Date. Unless otherwise specified herein, interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months ("30 over 360").

Subsequent Interest Periods

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest Rate on this Note may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Optional Reset Date"). Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the Interest Rate, and if so, (i) such new Interest Rate and (ii) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date, or, if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity of this Note (each such period, a "Subsequent Interest Period"), including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the Trustee of a Reset Notice to the holder of a Note, such new interest rate shall take effect automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below, such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Interest Rate provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Interest Rate for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Interest Rate to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with respect to which the Interest Rate is reset on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Interest Rate whether or not tendered for repayment.

The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect repayment by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than


35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date, and except that if the Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, then the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement, is determined by reference to the amount designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the Face Amount of this Note and by reference to the Index as described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or any earlier redemption or repayment of this Note may be different from the Face Amount.

If a third party is appointed to calculate or announce the Index for a particular Indexed Note and this third party either suspends the calculation or announcement of such Index or changes the basis upon which such Index is calculated, in a manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing supplement, then the Company will select another third party to calculate or announce the Index. The agent or another affiliate of the Company may be either the original or successor third party selected by the Company.

If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original third party, then the indexed interest payments, if any, or any indexed principal amount of such Indexed Principal Note will be calculated in the manner set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Any determination by the selected third party will be binding on all parties, except in the case of an obvious error.

Specified Currency

If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be determined by the Company or its agent based on the Specified Currency/U.S. dollar exchange rate prevailing at 11:00 a.m., London time, on the second London Business Day prior to the applicable payment date, or if an exchange rate bid quotation is not so available, the Exchange Rate Agent shall obtain a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in London selected by the Exchange Rate Agent after consultation with the Company, for settlement on such payment date, of the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable on such payment date in respect of all Notes denominated in such Specified Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are available, then such payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will be made as described in the next paragraph.


Payments in Currencies Other than the Specified Currency

Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such currency is (i) unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control, (ii) is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or (iii) is no longer used for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency is again available or so used. The amount so payable on any date in such foreign currency shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute a Default under the Indenture.

In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall, in all cases, be deemed immediately following such redenomination to provide for the payment of that amount of redenominated currency representing the amount of such obligations immediately before such redenomination. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the following paragraph.

Dual Currency Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the Company may have a one time option, exercisable on one or more dates (each an "Option Election Date") in whole, but not in part, with respect to all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and having the same terms (a "Tranche"), of thereafter making all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest
(which payments would otherwise be made in the Specified Currency of such Notes)
in an optional currency (the "Optional Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If such election is made, notice of such election shall be mailed in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tranche of Dual Currency Notes within two Business Days of the Option Election Date and


shall state (i) the first date, whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated Maturity, on which scheduled payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be made and (ii) the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once given, may not be withdrawn. The equivalent value in the Specified Currency of payments made after such an election may be less, at the then current exchange rate, than if the Company had made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in accordance with the following procedures:

On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date (each, together with the Initial Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date, if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15 nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon each subsequent Holder of this Note. An election to renew the term of this Note may be exercised with respect to less than the entire principal amount of this Note only if so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and then only in such principal amount, or any integral multiple in excess of such amount, as is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term of this Note may not be extended beyond the Stated Maturity specified for this Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.


If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall have a fixed, nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount of such Holder's Note, the Trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, shall issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such holder, a replacement Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Maturity

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Maturity of this Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five whole years, up to but not beyond, the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Company may exercise such option by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the "Extension Notice") first class, postage prepaid indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the Interest Rate applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period including the date or dates on which, or the period or periods during which, and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the extension period. Upon the Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of this Note shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Interest Rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher Interest Rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Interest Rate, first class, postage prepaid to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher Interest Rate for the extension period, whether or not tendered for repayment.

If the Company extends the Stated Maturity of this Note, the Holder will have the option to elect repayment of this Note by the Company on the old Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on such old Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Stated Maturity hereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery of this Note or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days before the old Stated Maturity, and except that if the Holder has


tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the old Stated Maturity.

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an "Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption Price") (together with accrued interest to such Optional Redemption Date) specified herein. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee shall mail to the Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage prepaid at least 30 days prior to the date of redemption. Unless otherwise stated herein, the Company may exercise such option with respect to a redemption of this Note in part only by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45 days prior to any Optional Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued to the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will be repayable prior to Maturity at the option of the Holder on the Optional Repayment Dates shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith at the Optional Repayment Prices shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, together with interest accrued to the date of repayment. In order for this Note to be repaid, the Trustee must receive at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an Optional Repayment Date (i) this Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States of America setting forth the name of the Holder of this Note, the principal amount of the Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Note, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised hereby and a guarantee that this Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed will be received by the Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. If the guarantee procedure described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is followed, this Note with form duly completed must be received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Any tender of this Note for repayment (except pursuant to a Reset Notice or an Extension Notice) shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised by the Holder of this Note for less than the entire principal amount of the Note, provided, that the principal amount of this Note remaining outstanding after repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial repayment, this Note shall be canceled and a new Note or Notes for the remaining principal amount hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Note.

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will not be subject to any sinking fund.


Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if this Note is an OID Note (other than an Indexed Principal Note), the amount payable in the event of redemption or repayment prior to the Stated Maturity hereof (other than pursuant to an optional redemption by the Company at a stated Redemption Price) shall be the Amortized Face Amount of this Note as of the redemption date or the date of repayment, as the case may be. The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith plus
(ii) that portion of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith or (y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles), provided, however, that in no event shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount. The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith shall be computed on the basis of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note is not redeemed on such first occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield to Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional Redemption Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so recomputed on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so redeemed.

The Company may at any time purchase Notes at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may, at the discretion of the Company, be held or resold or surrendered to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation.

Other Terms

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Person surrendering the same.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable 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 and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.


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 Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the Holder 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.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all the Debt Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in this manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft, or destruction hereof (together with such indemnity and such other documents or proof as may be required by the Company or the Trustee) shall be delivered to the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount will be issued by the Company in exchange for, or in lieu of, this Note. All expenses and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Note shall be borne by the Holder of this Note.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities at the time outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of any series at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Debt Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debt Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debt Security and of any Debt Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon the Debt Security.

Holders of Debt Securities may not enforce their rights pursuant to the Indenture or the Note except as provided in the Indenture. 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 premium, if any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made and to be performed solely in the State of New York and for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of said State without regard to the conflicts of law rules of said State.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof 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 for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (referred to on the reverse hereof), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than fifteen 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 said Indenture.

For purposes of this Note, "Business Day" means: (i) with respect to any Note, any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in The City of New York, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii) (x) with respect to LIBOR Notes only, any such day on which dealings in deposits in

(iv) with respect to EURIBOR Notes and Notes denominated in euros, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer ("TARGET") System is open (a "TARGET Business Day").

As used above, a "principal financial center" means the capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with respect to Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, and Swiss francs, the principal financial center shall be Sydney, Toronto and Zurich, respectively.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is, to the extent set forth in the Indenture, expressly subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness as defined in the Indenture, and this Note is issued subject to such provisions, and each Holder of this Note, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions and authorizes and directs the Trustee in his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination as provided in the Indenture and appoints the Trustee as his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an index (as described above).

The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S. dollars in the manner described on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if so indicated above, elect to receive all payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency by delivery of a written notice to the Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to Citibank received not later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. If the Company determines that the Specified Currency is not available for making payments in respect hereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control or is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions or within the international banking community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to receive payments in the Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election shall be automatically suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until the Company determines that the Specified Currency is again available for making such payments.

Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest payable at Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the


Security Register on the applicable Record Date, provided, that, if the Holder hereof is the Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a currency other than U.S. dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor and term, such U.S. dollar interest payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, but only if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by Citibank not less than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with any election by the Holder hereof to receive payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency (if other than U.S. dollars), such Holder shall provide appropriate wire transfer instructions to Citibank and all such payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located outside the United States. The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon payable at Maturity will be paid in immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the offices of Citibank located in the City and State of New York.

(FLOATING OR INDEXED RATE)

General

This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one or more series under an indenture, dated as of April 12, 2001, as the same may be amended from time to time (the "Indenture"), between the Company and Bank One Trust Company, N.A., 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 Debt Securities and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public offering price or purchase price of Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars will be determined by the Company or its agent, as exchange rate agent for the Notes (the "Exchange Rate Agent") on the basis of, unless otherwise specified in the pricing supplement, the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate") for such currencies on the applicable issue dates.

The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless otherwise specified above, the authorized denominations of Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000 and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized denominations of Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be as set forth on the respective faces thereof.

Each Note will be issued initially as either a Book-Entry Note or, if so specified above, a Certificated Note. Book-Entry Notes will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes and, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, will not otherwise be issuable as Certificated Notes.

Floating Rate Notes

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, if this Note is a Floating Rate Note, this Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date to, but not including, the first Interest Reset Date (as defined below) at the Initial Interest Rate set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Thereafter, the interest rate hereon for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by reference to the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, plus or minus the Spread, if any, or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Base Rates that may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith are the CD Rate, the


Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR Moneyline Telerate, LIBOR Reuters, the Treasury Rate, Treasury Rate Constant Maturity, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, EURIBOR or any other Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

"H.15(519)" means the publication entitled "Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates" or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

"H.15 Daily Update" means the daily update of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.bog.frb.fed.us/releases/H15/update or any successor site or publication.

"Calculation Date," where applicable, means the date on which the Calculation Agent is to calculate the interest rate for Floating Rate Notes which shall be the earlier of (1) the tenth calendar day after the related Rate Determination Date, or if any such day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day or (2) the business day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

As specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note may also have either or both of the following (in each case expressed as a rate per annum on a simple interest basis): (i) a maximum limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period ("Maximum Interest Rate") and/or (ii) a minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period ("Minimum Interest Rate"). In addition to any Maximum Interest Rate that may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest rate will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.

The Company will appoint, and enter into an agreement with, agents (each, a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on this Note. All determinations of interest rates by the Calculation Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder hereof. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, Citibank, N.A. shall be the Calculation Agent for this Note. At the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.

The interest rate hereon will be reset daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually (such period being the "Interest Reset Period" specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and the first day of each Interest Reset Period being an "Interest Reset Date"). Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest Reset Dates will be as follows: (i) if this Note resets daily, each Business Day; (ii) if this Note (unless this Note is a Treasury Rate Note) resets weekly, Wednesday of each week; (iii) if this Note is a Treasury Rate Note that resets weekly, Tuesday of each week (except as provided below under "Determination of Treasury Rate"); (iv) if this Note resets monthly, the third Wednesday of each month (with the


exception of monthly reset Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes, which reset on the first calendar day of each month); (v) if this Note resets quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; (vi) if this Note resets semiannually, the third Wednesday of the two months of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith; (vii) and if this Note resets annually, the third Wednesday of the month of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If an Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall instead be the immediately preceding Business Day. If an auction of direct obligations of United States Treasury Bills falls on a day that is an Interest Reset Date for Treasury Rate Notes, the Interest Reset Date shall be the succeeding Business Day.

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest payable hereon on each Interest Payment Date shall be the interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date or the last date to which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding such Interest Payment Date, provided, however, that if the interest rate is reset daily or weekly, the interest payable hereon shall be the interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date or the last date to which interest has been accrued and paid, as the case may be, to but excluding the Record Date immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, except that, at Maturity, the interest payable will include interest accrued to, but excluding, the date of Maturity.

If more than one Interest Reset Date occurs during any period for which accrued interest is being calculated, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount hereof (or if this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor (expressed as a decimal calculated to seven decimal places without rounding) for each such day will be computed, unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, by dividing the interest rate in effect on such day by 360 if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR Moneyline Telerate, LIBOR Reuters, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate or EURIBOR or by the actual number of days in the year, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or Treasury Rate Constant Maturity. For purposes of making the foregoing calculations, the interest rate in effect on any Interest Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such date. In all other cases, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount hereof (or if this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) by the interest rate in effect during the period for which accrued interest is being calculated, and multiplying that product by the quotient obtained by dividing the number of days in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated by 360 if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement


attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR Moneyline Telerate, LIBOR Reuters, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate or EURIBOR or by the actual number of days in the year, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or Treasury Rate Constant Maturity.

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, all percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest hereof will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all currency amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a unit (with .005 of a unit being rounded upward).

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest will be payable as follows: (i) if this Note resets daily, weekly or monthly (other than Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes), interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year, as specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith or (ii) in the case of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes, interest will be payable on the first calendar day of each March, June, September and December; (iii) if this Note resets quarterly, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; (iv) if this Note resets semiannually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each of two months of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith; and (v) if this Note resets annually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of the month of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and in each case at Maturity (each such day being an "Interest Payment Date"). If an Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date shall instead be the immediately preceding Business Day, provided, however, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue to Pay" is not specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, if an Interest Payment Date with respect to such Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, further, that any payment required to be made in respect of a Note that does not Accrue to Pay on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a Business Day for such Note need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

Upon the request of the holder of this Floating Rate Note, the Calculation Agent for the Note will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date with respect to the Note.


Subject to applicable provisions of law and except as specified herein, on each Interest Reset Date the rate of interest shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below.

Determination of CD Rate

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the CD Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "CD Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the rate as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "CD Rate Determination Date") for negotiable certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as published in H.15(519) under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)."

The following procedures will be followed if the CD Rate cannot be determined as described above. If the above rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the CD Rate Determination Date, then the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on the CD Rate Determination Date for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)." If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published, then the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the CD Rate Determination Date of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money center banks of the highest credit standing (in the market for negotiable certificates of deposit) with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith in a denomination of $5,000,000, provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the CD Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial Interest Rate).

CD Rate Notes, like other Notes, are not deposit obligations of a bank and are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Determination of Commercial Paper Rate

If the Base Rate shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Commercial Paper Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Commercial Paper Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Commercial Paper Rate" for each Interest Reset


Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date") and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the heading "Commercial Paper -- Nonfinancial."

The following procedures will be followed if the Commercial Paper Rate cannot be determined as described above. In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield on the Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of the specified Index Maturity as published in the H.15 Daily Update under the heading "Commercial Paper -- Nonfinancial." If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published, then the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of three leading dealers of U.S. dollar commercial paper in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith placed for an industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a nationally recognized rating agency, provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

"Money Market Yield" shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula:

Money Market Yield = D x 360 X 100


360 - (D x M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal and "M" refers to the actual number of days in the applicable Interest Reset Period.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Federal Funds Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Federal Funds Rate and Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Federal Funds Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the effective rate on the business day immediately preceeding the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Federal Funds Rate Determination Date") for U.S. dollar Federal Funds


as published in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)" and displayed on Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on Page 120 or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service.

The following procedures will be followed if the Federal Funds Rate cannot be determined as described above. In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the Federal Funds Rate Determination Date, the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the rate on the Federal Funds Rate Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)," or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate. If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published, then the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds arranged by three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time on the Federal Funds Rate Determination Date; provided, however, that if the brokers so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned above, the Federal Funds Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the particular Federal Funds Rate Determination Date (or, if there is no such Federal Funds Rate in effect for the Interest Reset Period, the Federal Funds Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of LIBOR

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR Moneyline Telerate or LIBOR Reuters, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to LIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. "LIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as follows.

On the second London Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), the Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for deposits in the Specified Currency for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appear on the Designated LIBOR Page at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on such LIBOR Determination Date. "Designated LIBOR Page" means either (a) if "LIBOR Moneyline Telerate" is designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the display designated as page "3750" on the Moneyline Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace page "3750" on such service or such other successor service selected for the purpose of displaying the London interbank offered rates of major banks), and LIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant offered rate as determined by the Calculation Agent; or (b) if "LIBOR Reuters" is designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, "Designated LIBOR Page" means the display designated as page "LIBO" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service and LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of the offered rates, calculated by the calculation agent, or the offered rate, if the Designated LIBOR Page by its terms provides only for a single rate. If the LIBO page on such service is replaced by another


page, or if the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service is replaced by a successor service, then ""LIBOR Reuters" means the replacement page or service selected to display the London interbank offered rates of major banks. If neither LIBOR Reuters nor LIBOR Moneyline Telerate is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, LIBOR will be determined as if LIBOR Moneyline Telerate had been specified.

If LIBOR cannot be determined as described above, the Calculation Agent will determine "LIBOR" as follows. The Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of each of four major banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotations for deposits in the Specified Currency for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date and such offered quotations will be in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or its approximate equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time. If two or more such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If less than two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Note at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the LIBOR Determination Date for loans in the Specified Currency to leading European banks for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, and in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time, provided, however, that if fewer than three banks selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are quoting rates as mentioned in this sentence, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as LIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the LIBOR Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of Treasury Rate

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or Treasury Rate Constant Maturity, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Treasury Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Unless "Constant Maturity" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate for the auction held on the Treasury Rate Determination Date (as defined below) for such Interest Reset Period of direct obligations of the United States ("Treasury Securities") that have the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as such rate appears on either Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on Page 56 (or any other page as may replace the page on that service) or on Page 57 (or any other page as may replace the page on that service) under the heading "INVESTMENT RATE." The following procedures will be followed if the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as described above. If not so published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to the Treasury Rate


Determination Date, the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the Bond Equivalent Yield (as defined below) of the rate for the applicable treasury securities as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High." In the event that this rate is not so published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the auction rate of the applicable treasury securities as announced by the United States Department of the Treasury. If this rate is not announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held, then the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on the Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Securities as published in H.15(519) under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market." If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date that rate is not so published in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on the Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Securities as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market." If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date this rate is not so published in H.15 Daily Update, then the Treasury Rate for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on the Treasury Rate Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three primary United States government securities dealers selected by the calculation agent, for the issue of Treasury Securities with a remaining maturity closest to the index maturity specified in the applicable pricing supplement, provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this sentence, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial Interest Rate).

The "Treasury Rate Determination Date" for each Interest Reset Period will be the day of the week in which the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period falls on which Treasury Securities would normally be auctioned. Treasury Securities are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Period commencing in the next succeeding week. If an auction date shall fall on any day that would otherwise be an Interest Reset Date for a Treasury Rate Note, then such Interest Reset Date shall instead be the Business Day immediately following such auction date.

The "Bond Equivalent Yield" will be calculated as follows:

Bond Equivalent Yield = D X N X 100
360 - (D X M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Securities quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, "N" refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and "M" refers to the actual number of days in the applicable Interest Reset Period.

If "Constant Maturity" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate displayed on the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities" under the column for the Designated CMT Maturity Index in the following manner (1) if the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page is 7051, the Treasury Rate will be the rate on such Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date provided, however, (A) if the rate does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 7051, then the Treasury Rate will be the treasury constant maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as published in the relevant H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," or (B) if that rate does not so appear in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate will be the constant treasury maturity rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as may then be published by either the Federal Reserve System Board of Governors or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would have otherwise been published in H.15(519), and (2) if the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page is 7052, then the Treasury Rate will be the weekly or monthly average, as specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, for the week or the month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date occurs provided, however, (A) if the rate referred to above does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 7052, then the Treasury Rate will be the one-week or one-month, as specified on the face hereof or in the applicable pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, average of the treasury constant maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index for the week or month as applicable, preceding the Constant Maturity Treasury Determination Date as published in the relevant H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," or (B) if that rate does not so appear in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate will be the one-week or one-month, as specified on the face hereof or in the applicable pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, average of the constant treasury maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date falls.

The following procedures will be followed in the order set forth below if the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as indicated in (1) or (2) above. If such information, as applicable, is not so published, then the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as follows. Such Treasury Rate will be a yield to maturity, based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date of three leading U.S. government securities dealers in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, one of which may be the Agent, from five such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent and eliminating the highest and lowest quotations, or in the event of equality, one of the highest, and the lowest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States treasury securities ("Treasury Notes"), with an original maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining term to maturity of not less than such


Designated CMT Maturity Index minus one year and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities market at that time.

If three or four, but not five, of such dealers provide quotations as described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes will be eliminated.

If the Calculation Agent is unable to obtain three such Treasury Note quotations, the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as follows. Such Treasury Rate will be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date reported, according to their written records, by three leading U.S. government securities dealers in the City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for Treasury Notes with an original maturity of the number of years that is the next highest to the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. The three government securities dealers referenced above will be identified from five such dealers who are selected by the calculation agent, one of which may be the agent, by eliminating the dealers with the highest and lowest quotations, or in the event of equality, one of the highest and/or lowest quotation, as the case may require.

If two Treasury Notes with an original maturity, as described herein, have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Designated CMT Maturity Index, the Calculation Agent will obtain quotations for the Treasury Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity and will use such quotations to calculate the Treasury Rate as set forth herein.

If three or four, and not five, of such dealers are quoting as described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the offer prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes will be eliminated. However, if fewer than three of such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent provide quotations as described above, the Treasury Rate determined as of the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be the Treasury Rate in effect on such Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date.

"Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page" means the display on the Telerate Service, or any successor service on the page specified in the applicable pricing supplement, or any other page as may replace such page on that service, or any successor service, for the purpose of displaying Treasury Constant Maturities as reported in H.15(519). If no such page is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the Designated CMT Moneyline Telerate Page shall be 7052, for the most recent week.

"Designated CMT Maturity Index" means the original period to maturity of the U.S. Treasury securities, either one, two, three, five, seven, ten, twenty or thirty years, specified in the applicable pricing supplement with respect to which the Treasury Rate will be calculated. If no such maturity is specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the Designated CMT Maturity Index shall be two years.


"The Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date" shall be the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for the applicable Interest Reset Period.

Determination of Prime Rate

Prime Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rates (calculated with reference to the Prime Rate and the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any) specified in the Prime Rate Notes and in the applicable pricing supplement.

Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Prime Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent for such Prime Rate Note as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Prime Rate Determination Date") and shall be the rate made available and subsequently published on such date in H.15(519) under the heading "Bank Prime Loan." The following procedures will be followed if the Prime Rate cannot be determined as described above. If the above rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Prime Rate will be the rate on the Prime Rate Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading "Bank Prime Loan." In the event that such rate has not been published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the Prime Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page (as defined below) as such bank's prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 A.M. New York City time, on the Prime Rate Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates appear on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page for the Prime Rate Determination Date, the rate shall be the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by 360 as of the close of business on the Prime Rate Determination Date by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent. However, if the banks so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in the previous sentence, the Prime Rate will be the Prime Rate in effect on the Prime Rate Determination Date. "Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page" means the display designated as page "USPRIME1" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace the USPRIME1 page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks).

Determination of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate

Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rates (calculated by reference to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate and the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any) specified in the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes and in the applicable pricing supplement.

Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate," for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Note as of the last working day of the month immediately prior to such Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period on which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the


"FHLB of San Francisco") publishes the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index (as defined below) (the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date"), and shall be the rate equal to the monthly weighted average cost of funds for the calendar month preceding such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date as set forth under the caption "Eleventh District" on the Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on Page 7058 as of 11:00 A.M., San Francisco time, on such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date.

The following procedures will be followed if the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate cannot be determined as described above. If such rate does not appear on Moneyline Telerate Page (or any successor service) on 7058 on any related Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date shall be the monthly weighted average cost of funds paid by member institutions of the Eleventh Federal Home Loan Bank District that was most recently announced (the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Index") by the FHLB of San Francisco as such cost of funds for the calendar month preceding the date of such announcement. If the FHLB of San Francisco fails to announce the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index on or prior to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date of the calendar month immediately preceding that date, then the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date will be the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate in effect on such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date.

Determination of EURIBOR

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is EURIBOR, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to EURIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. "EURIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as follows.

On the second TARGET Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "EURIBOR Determination Date"), the Calculation Agent for such EURIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for deposits in euros as sponsored, calculated and published jointly by the European Banking Federation and ACI - The Financial Market Association, or any company established by the joint sponsors for purposes of compiling and publishing those rates, for the period of the index maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appears on the Designated EURIBOR Page as of 11:00
a.m., Brussels time, on such EURIBOR Determination Date. "Designated EURIBOR Page" means the display designated as page "248" on the Telerate Service (or any successor service or such other page as may replace page "248" on such service), and EURIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant offered rate as determined by the Calculation Agent.

If EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above (either because the Designated EURIBOR Page is no longer available or because fewer than two offered rates appear on the Designated EURIBOR Page on the EURIBOR Determination Date), the Calculation Agent will determine "EURIBOR" as follows. The Calculation Agent will request the principal Euro-zone


(as defined below) office of each of four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to provide the Calculation Agent with their respective offered quotations for deposits in euros for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the Euro-zone interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the EURIBOR Determination Date and such offered quotations will be in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or its approximate equivalent thereof in euros that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time. If two or more such quotations are provided, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If less than two such quotations are provided, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted by four major banks in the Euro-zone selected by the Calculation Agent for such EURIBOR Note at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the EURIBOR Determination Date for loans in euros to leading European banks for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, and in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent thereof in euros that is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time, provided, however, that if the banks so selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as mentioned in this sentence, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the same as EURIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the EURIBOR Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

"Euro-zone" means the region comprised of member states of the European Union that adopt the single currency in accordance with the treaty establishing the European Community, as amended by the treaty on European Union.

Inverse Floating Rate Notes

If this Note is designated as an Inverse Floating Rate Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest rate on such Inverse Floating Rate shall be equal to (i) in the case of the period, if any, commencing on the Issue Date (or such other date which may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the date on which this Note shall begin to accrue interest), up to the first Interest Reset Date, the Initial Fixed Interest Rate shown above, and (ii) in the case of each period commencing on an Interest Reset Date, the Reset Fixed Reference Rate shown above minus the interest rate determined by reference to the Base Rate shown above, as adjusted by the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, as determined in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided, however, that on any Inverse Floating Rate Note the interest rate thereon will not be less than zero.

Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Notes

If this Note is designated as a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note, this Note will be a Floating Rate note for a specified portion of its term and a Fixed Rate Note for the remainder of its term, in which event the interest rate on this Note will be determined as provided herein as if it were a Floating Rate Note and a Fixed Rate Note hereunder for each such respective period, all as described herein and in the applicable pricing supplement.


Subsequent Interest Periods

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Spread or Spread Multiplier on this Note may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Optional Reset Date"). Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the Spread or Spread Multiplier, and if so, (i) such new Spread or Spread Multiplier and (ii) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date, or, if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity of this Note (each such period, a "Subsequent Interest Period"), including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the Trustee of a Reset Notice to the holder of a Note, such new interest rate shall take effect automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below, such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread or Spread Multiplier provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Spread or Spread Multiplier for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with respect to which the Spread or Spread Multiplier is reset on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier whether or not tendered for repayment.

The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect repayment by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date, and except that if the Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

If this Note is an Indexed Note, then certain or all interest payments, in the case of an Indexed Rate Note, and/or the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement, in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, is determined by reference to the amount designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the Face Amount of this Note and by reference to the Index as described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is a Floating Rate Note or Indexed Rate Note that is also an Indexed Principal Note, the amount of any interest payment will be determined by reference to the Face Amount described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith unless otherwise specified. If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or any earlier redemption or repayment of this Note may be different from the Face Amount.


If a third party is appointed to calculate or announce the Index for a particular Indexed Note and this third party either suspends the calculation or announcement of such Index or changes the basis upon which such Index is calculated, in a manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing supplement, then the Company will select another third party to calculate or announce the Index. The agent or another affiliate of the Company may be either the original or successor third party selected by the Company.

If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original third party, then the indexed interest payments, if any, or any indexed principal amount of such Indexed Note will be calculated in the manner set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Any determination by the selected third party will be binding on all parties, except in the case of an obvious error.

Specified Currency

If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be determined by the Company or its agent based on the Specified Currency/U.S. dollar exchange rate prevailing at 11:00 a.m., London time, on the second London Business Day prior to the applicable payment date, or if an exchange rate bid quotation is not so available, the Exchange Rate Agent shall obtain a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in London selected by the Exchange Rate Agent after consultation with the Company, for settlement on such payment date, of the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable on such payment date in respect of all Notes denominated in such Specified Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are available, then such payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will be made as described in the next paragraph.

Payments in Currencies Other than the Specified Currency

Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such currency is (i) unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control, (ii) is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or (iii) is no longer used for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency is again available or so used. The amount so payable on any date in such foreign currency shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute a Default under the Indenture.

In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall, in all cases, be deemed immediately


following such redenomination to provide for the payment of that amount of redenominated currency representing the amount of such obligations immediately before such redenomination. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the following paragraph.

Dual Currency Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the Company may have a one time option, exercisable on one or more dates (each an "Option Election Date") in whole, but not in part, with respect to all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and having the same terms (a "Tranche"), of thereafter making all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest
(which payments would otherwise be made in the Specified Currency of such Notes)
in an optional currency (the "Optional Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If such election is made, notice of such election shall be mailed in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tranche of Dual Currency Notes within two Business Days of the Option Election Date and shall state (i) the first date, whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated Maturity, on which scheduled payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be made and (ii) the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once given, may not be withdrawn. The equivalent value in the Specified Currency of payments made after such an election may be less, at the then current exchange rate, than if the Company had made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in accordance with the following procedures.

On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date (each, together with the Initial


Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date, if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15 nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon each subsequent Holder of this Note. An election to renew the term of this Note may be exercised with respect to less than the entire principal amount of this Note only if so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and then only in such principal amount, or any integral multiple in excess of such amount, as is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term of this Note may not be extended beyond the Stated Maturity specified for this Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall have a fixed, nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount of such Holder's Note, the Trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, shall issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such holder, a replacement Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Maturity

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Maturity of this Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five whole years, up to but not beyond, the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Company may exercise such option by notifying the Trustee of this Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the "Extension


Notice") first class, postage prepaid indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the Spread or Spread Multiplier applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period including the date or dates on which, or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the extension period. Upon the Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of this Note shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread or Spread Multiplier provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher Spread or Spread Multiplier for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier, first class, postage prepaid to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier for the extension period, whether or not tendered for repayment.

If the Company extends the Stated Maturity of this Note, the Holder will have the option to elect repayment of this Note by the Company on the old Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on such old Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Stated Maturity hereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for delivery of this Note or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days before the such old Stated Maturity, and except that if the Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the old Stated Maturity.

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an "Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption Price") (together with interest accrued to such Optional Redemption Date) specified herein. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee shall mail to the Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage prepaid at least 30 days prior to the date of redemption.

(i) is not waivable under the Indenture, the Default under the Declaration shall also not be waivable; or

(b) The Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities may, by vote, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Common Securities, waive any past Default with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences, provided, that if the underlying Default under the Indenture:

provided, further each Holder of Common Securities will be deemed to have waived any such Default and all Defaults with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences until all Defaults with respect to the Capital Securities have been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, and until such Defaults with respect to the Capital Securities have been so cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, the Institutional Trustee will be deemed to be acting solely on behalf of the Holders of the Capital Securities and only the Holders of the Capital Securities will have the right to direct the Institutional Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Securities. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6(b) shall be in lieu of Sections 316(a)(1)(A) and 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act and such Sections 316(a)(1)(A) and 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act are hereby expressly excluded from this Declaration and the Securities, as permitted by the Trust Indenture Act.

(ii) any notice of default received from the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, which notice from the Institutional Trustee to the Holders shall state that a Default under the Indenture also constitutes a Default with respect to the Securities; provided that, except for a default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Debentures or in the payment of any sinking fund installment established for the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer of the Institutional Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Securities.

(b) the Regular Trustees elect after consultation with the Sponsor to terminate the book entry system through the Clearing Agency with respect to the Capital Securities,

then:

(c) Definitive Capital Security Certificates shall be prepared by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust with respect to such Capital Securities; and

(d) upon surrender of the Global Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Regular Trustees shall cause Definitive Certificates to be delivered to Capital Security Beneficial Owners in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency.

32

or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 9.8, the Regular Trustees may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an ownership interest in the relevant Securities, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

(a) No Indemnified Person shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Trust or any Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Trust and in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Declaration or by law, except that an Indemnified Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

(b) An Indemnified Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Trust and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Trust by any Person as to matters the Indemnified Person reasonably believes are within such other Person's professional or expert competence and who has been selected with

33

reasonable care by or on behalf of the Trust, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions to Holders of Securities might properly be paid.

SECTION 10.3 Fiduciary Duty.

(a) To the extent that, at law or in equity, an Indemnified Person has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to any other Covered Person, an Indemnified Person acting under this Declaration shall not be liable to the Trust or to any other Covered Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Declaration. The provisions of this Declaration, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnified Person otherwise existing at law or in equity (other than the duties imposed on the Institutional Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act), are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Indemnified Person.

(b) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein:

(i) whenever a conflict of interest exists or arises between any Covered Persons; or

(ii) whenever this Declaration or any other agreement contemplated herein or therein provides that an Indemnified Person shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms that are, fair and reasonable to the Trust or any Holder of Securities,

the Indemnified Person shall resolve such conflict of interest, take such action or provide such terms, considering in each case the relative interest of each party (including its own interest) to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles. In the absence of bad faith by the Indemnified Person, the resolution, action or term so made, taken or provided by the Indemnified Person shall not constitute a breach of this Declaration or any other agreement contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of the Indemnified Person at law or in equity or otherwise.

(c) Whenever in this Declaration an Indemnified Person is permitted or required to make a decision:

(i) in its "discretion" or under a grant of similar authority, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Trust or any other Person; or

(ii) in its "good faith" or under another express standard, the Indemnified Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Declaration or by applicable law.

SECTION 10.4 Indemnification.

34

(a) (i) The Debenture Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Trust) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Company Indemnified Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(ii) The Debenture Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Trust to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust and except that no such indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Company Indemnified Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Trust unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(iii) To the extent that a Company Indemnified Person shall be successful on the merits or otherwise (including dismissal of an action without prejudice or the settlement of an action without admission of liability) in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.4(a), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified, to the full extent permitted by law, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

(iv) Any indemnification under paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this
Section 10.4(a) (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Debenture Issuer only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Company Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii). Such determination shall be made (1) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of such Regular Trustees who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding,
(2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by

35

independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the Common Security Holder of the Trust.

(v) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by a Company Indemnified Person in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and
(ii) of this Section 10.4(a) shall be paid by the Debenture Issuer in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Debenture Issuer as authorized in this Section 10.4(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no advance shall be made by the Debenture Issuer if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iii) the Common Security Holder of the Trust, that, based upon the facts known to the Regular Trustees, counsel or the Common Security Holder at the time such determination is made, such Company Indemnified Person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that such Company Indemnified Person believed or had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In no event shall any advance be made in instances where the Regular Trustees, independent legal counsel or Common Security Holder reasonably determine that such person deliberately breached his duty to the Trust or its Common or Capital Security Holders.

(vi) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other paragraphs of this Section 10.4(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification and advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors of the Debenture Issuer or Capital Security Holders of the Trust or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. All rights to indemnification under this Section 10.4(a) shall be deemed to be provided by a contract between the Debenture Issuer and each Company Indemnified Person who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 10.4(a) is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Section 10.4(a) shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing.

(vii) The Debenture Issuer may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Company Indemnified Person against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Debenture Issuer would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Section 10.4(a).

(viii) For purposes of this Section 10.4(a), references to "the Trust" shall include, in addition to the resulting or surviving entity, any constituent entity (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger, so that any person who is or was a director, trustee, officer or employee of such constituent entity, or is or

36

was serving at the request of such constituent entity as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another entity, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Section 10.4(a) with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he would have with respect to such constituent entity if its separate existence had continued.

(ix) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 10.4(a) shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Company Indemnified Person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

(b) The Debenture Issuer agrees to indemnify the (i) Institutional Trustee, (ii) the Delaware Trustee, (iii) any Affiliate of the Institutional Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, and (iv) any officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives, custodians, nominees or agents of the Institutional Trustee and the Delaware Trustee (each of the Persons in (i) through (iv) being referred to as a "Fiduciary Indemnified Person") for, and to hold each Fiduciary Indemnified Person harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration or the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against or investigating any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The obligation to indemnify as set forth in this
Section 10.4(b) shall survive the resignation or removal of the Institutional Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, and the satisfaction and discharge of this Declaration.

SECTION 10.5 Outside Businesses.

Any Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Holders of Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Declaration in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. No Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee, or the Institutional Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and any Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. Any Covered Person, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor, or may act as depositary for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of the Sponsor or its Affiliates.

The books of account shall be maintained on the accrual method of accounting, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.

(c) The Regular Trustees shall cause to be duly prepared and delivered to each of the Holders of Securities, any annual United States federal income tax information statement required by the Code, containing such information with regard to the Securities held by each Holder as is required by the Code and the Treasury Regulations.

To the extent that the Trust is required to withhold and pay over any amounts to any authority with respect to distributions or allocations to any Holder, the amount withheld shall be deemed to be a distribution in the amount of the withholding to the Holder. In the event of any claimed overwithholding, Holders shall be limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction. If the amount required to be withheld was not withheld from actual Distributions made, the Trust may reduce subsequent Distributions by the amount of such withholding.

ANNEX I

TERMS OF
% CAPITAL SECURITIES
% COMMON SECURITIES

Pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, dated as of , 20 (as amended from time to time, the "Declaration"), the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions, preferences and other terms and provisions of the Capital Securities and the Common Securities are set out below (each capitalized term used but not defined herein has the meaning set forth in the Declaration or, if not defined in such Declaration, as defined in the Prospectus referred to below):

1. Designation and Number.

(a) Capital Securities. Capital Securities of the Trust (or up to Capital Securities if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement) with an aggregate liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of dollars ($ ) (or up to ($ ) if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement), and a liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of $ per capital security, are hereby designated for the purposes of identification only as " % Capital Securities" (the "Capital Securities"). The Capital Security Certificates evidencing the Capital Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to the Declaration, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice or to conform to the rules of any stock exchange on which the Capital Securities are listed.

(b) Common Securities. Common Securities of the Trust (or up to Common Securities if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement) with an aggregate liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of dollars ($ ) (or up to ($ ) if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement), and a liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of $ per common security, are hereby designated for the purposes of identification only as " % Common Securities" (the "Common Securities"). The Common Security Certificates evidencing the Common Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 to the Declaration, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice.

2. Distributions.

(a) Distributions payable on each Security will be fixed at a rate per annum of % (the "Coupon Rate") of the stated liquidation amount of $ per Security, such rate being the rate of interest payable on the Debentures to be held by the Institutional Trustee. Distributions in arrears beyond the first date such Distributions are payable (or would be payable, if not for any Extension Period (as defined below) or default by the Debenture Issuer on the Debentures) will bear interest thereon compounded quarterly at the Coupon Rate (to the extent permitted by

I-1

applicable law). The term "Distributions" as used herein includes such cash distributions and any such interest payable unless otherwise stated. A Distribution is payable only to the extent that payments are made in respect of the Debentures held by the Institutional Trustee and to the extent the Institutional Trustee has funds available therefor. The amount of Distributions payable for any period will be computed for any full quarterly Distribution period on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, and for any period shorter than a full quarterly Distribution period for which Distributions are computed, Distributions will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 90-day quarter.

(b) Distributions on the Securities will be cumulative, will accrue from and including , 20 , and will be payable quarterly in arrears, on , , and of each year, commencing on , 20 . When, as and if available for payment, Distributions will be made by the Institutional Trustee, except as otherwise described below. The Debenture Issuer has the right under the Indenture to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period from time to time on the Debentures for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters (each an "Extension Period"), during which Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable on the Debentures, provided, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the date of maturity of the Debentures. As a consequence of the Debenture Issuer's extension of the interest payment period, quarterly Distributions will also be deferred. Despite such deferral, quarterly Distributions will continue to accrue with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate compounded quarterly during any such Extension Period. In the event that the Debenture Issuer exercises its right to extend the interest payment period, then (a) the Debenture Issuer shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto (other than (i) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of Citigroup in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants, (ii) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Citigroup's capital stock for any other class or series of Citigroup's capital stock, or (iii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Citigroup's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged) and (b) the Debenture Issuer shall not make any payment of interest on or principal of (or premium, if any, on), or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by the Debenture Issuer that rank pari passu with or junior to the Debentures. The foregoing, however, will not apply to any stock dividends paid by Citigroup where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid. Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Debenture Issuer may further extend such Extension Period; provided, that such Extension Period, together with all such previous and further extensions thereof, may not exceed 20 consecutive quarters; provided further, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the maturity of the Debentures. Payments of deferred Distributions and accrued interest thereon will be payable to Holders as they appear on the books and records of the Trust on the first record date after the end of the Extension Period. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due, the Debenture Issuer may commence a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. The Regular Trustees will give notice to each Holder of any Extension Period upon their receipt of notice thereof from the Debenture Issuer.

I-2

(c) Distributions on the Securities will be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the books and records of the Trust at the close of business on the relevant record dates. While the Capital Securities remain in book-entry only form, the relevant record dates shall be one Business Day prior to the relevant payment dates which payment dates shall correspond to the interest payment dates on the Debentures. Subject to any applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of the Declaration, each such payment in respect of the Capital Securities will be made as described under the heading "Description of the Capital Securities -- Book-Entry Only Issuance" in the Prospectus dated , 20 (the "Prospectus"), of the Trust included in the Registration Statement on Form S-3 of the Sponsor, the Trust and certain other statutory trusts. The relevant record dates for the Common Securities shall be the same record date as for the Capital Securities. If the Capital Securities shall not continue to remain in book-entry only form, the relevant record dates for the Capital Securities shall conform to the rules of any securities exchange on which the securities are listed and, if none, shall be selected by the Regular Trustees, which dates shall be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the relevant payment dates, which payment dates shall correspond to the interest payment dates on the Debentures. Distributions payable on any Securities that are not punctually paid on any Distribution payment date, as a result of the Debenture Issuer having failed to make a payment under the Debentures, will cease to be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the relevant record date, and such defaulted Distribution will instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the special record date or other specified date determined in accordance with the Indenture. If any date on which Distributions are payable on the Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the Distribution payable 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) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such 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.

(d) In the event that there is any money or other property held by or for the Trust that is not accounted for hereunder, such property shall be distributed Pro Rata (as defined herein) among the Holders of the Securities.

3. Liquidation Distribution Upon Dissolution.

(a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, the Holders of the Securities on the date of the dissolution, winding-up or termination, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to Holders of Securities after satisfaction of liabilities of creditors, distributions in an amount equal to the aggregate of the stated liquidation amount of $ per Security plus accrued and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the "Liquidation Distribution"), unless, in connection with such dissolution, winding-up or termination, Debentures in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate equal to the Coupon Rate, and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Distributions on, such Securities outstanding at such time, have been distributed on a Pro Rata basis to the Holders of the Securities in exchange for such Securities. Prior to any such Liquidation Distribution, the Debenture Issuer will obtain any required regulatory approval.

I-3

(b) If, upon any such dissolution, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then the amounts payable directly by the Trust on the Securities shall be paid on a Pro Rata basis.

4. Redemption and Distribution.

(a) Upon the repayment of the Debentures in whole or in part, whether at maturity or upon redemption (either at the option of the Debenture Issuer or pursuant to a Special Event as described below), the proceeds from such repayment or payment shall be simultaneously applied to redeem Securities having an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures so repaid or redeemed at a redemption price of $ per Security plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid Distributions thereon at the date of the redemption, payable in cash (the "Redemption Price"). Holders shall be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice of such redemption. Prior to any such redemption, the Debenture Issuer will obtain any required regulatory approval.

(b) If fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be so redeemed, the Securities will be redeemed Pro Rata and the Capital Securities to be redeemed will be as described in Section 4(f)(ii) below.

(c) Subject to obtaining any required regulatory approval, if, at any time, a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Regulatory Capital Event (each as defined below, and each a "Special Event") shall occur and be continuing, Citigroup shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, to redeem the Debentures, in whole or in part, for cash within 90 days following the occurrence of such Special Event, and, following such redemption, Securities with an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures so redeemed shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Redemption Price on a Pro Rata basis; provided, however, that if at the time there is available to Citigroup or the Trust the opportunity to eliminate, within such 90-day period, the Special Event by taking some ministerial action, such as filing a form or making an election or pursuing some other similar reasonable measure that will have no adverse effect on the Trust, Citigroup or the holders of the Securities, then Citigroup or the Trust will pursue such measure in lieu of redemption.

"Tax Event" means that the Regular Trustees shall have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters (a "Tax Event Opinion") to the effect that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or any regulations thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (b) any amendment to, or change in, an interpretation or application of such laws or regulations by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (including the enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial decision or regulatory determination on or after the date of the Prospectus), in either case after the date of the Prospectus, there is more than an insubstantial risk that
(i) the Trust would be subject to United States federal income tax with respect to interest accrued or received on the Debentures, (ii) the Trust would be subject to more than a de minimis amount of other taxes, duties or other governmental charges, or (iii) interest payable to the Trust

I-4

on the Debentures would not be deductible, in whole or in part, by the Debenture Issuer for United States federal income tax purposes.

"Investment Company Event" means that the Regular Trustees shall have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent counsel experienced in practice under the Investment Company Act (an "Investment Company Event Opinion") to the effect that, as a result of the occurrence of a change in law or regulation or a written change in interpretation or application of law or regulation by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (a "Change in 1940 Act Law"), there is a more than an insubstantial risk that the Trust is or will be considered an Investment Company which is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act, which Change in 1940 Act Law becomes effective on or after the date of the Prospectus.

"Regulatory Capital Event" means a determination by Citigroup, based on an opinion of counsel experienced in such matters (who may be an employee of Citigroup or any of its affiliates), that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, clarification of or change (including any announced prospective change) in applicable laws or regulations or official interpretations thereof or policies with respect thereto or (b) any official administrative pronouncement or judicial decision interpreting or applying such laws or regulations, which amendment, clarification, change, pronouncement or decision is announced or is effective after the date of the Prospectus, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Capital Securities will no longer constitute Tier I Capital of Citigroup or any bank holding company of which Citigroup is a subsidiary (or its equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines or policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or its successor as Citigroup's primary federal banking regulator.

On and from the date fixed by the Regular Trustees for any distribution of the Debentures and dissolution of the Trust: (i) the Securities will no longer be deemed to be outstanding, (ii) DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), as the record Holder of the Capital Securities, will receive a registered global certificate or certificates representing the Debentures to be delivered upon such distribution and (iii) any certificates representing Securities, except for certificates representing Capital Securities held by DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), will be deemed to represent beneficial interests in the Debentures having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate identical to the Coupon Rate of, and accrued and unpaid interest equal to accrued and unpaid Distributions on such Securities until such certificates are presented to the Debenture Issuer or its agent for transfer or reissue.

(d) The Trust may not redeem fewer than all the outstanding Securities unless all accrued and unpaid Distributions have been paid on all Securities for all quarterly Distribution periods terminating on or before the date of redemption.

(e) If the Debentures are distributed to the Holders of the Securities, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Debenture Issuer will use its best efforts to cause the Debentures to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or on such other exchange as the Capital Securities were listed immediately prior to the distribution of the Debentures.

I-5

(f) Redemption or Distribution procedures will be as follows:

(i) Notice of any redemption of, or notice of distribution of Debentures in exchange for the Securities (a "Redemption/Distribution Notice") will be given by the Trust by mail to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed or exchanged not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption or exchange thereof which, in the case of a redemption, will be the date fixed for redemption of the Debentures. For purposes of the calculation of the date of redemption or exchange and the dates on which notices are given pursuant to this Section
4(f)(i), a Redemption/ Distribution Notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of the Securities. Each Redemption/Distribution Notice shall be addressed to the Holders of the Securities at the address of each such Holder appearing in the books and records of the Trust. No defect in the Redemption/Distribution Notice or in the mailing of either thereof with respect to any Holder shall affect the validity of the redemption or exchange proceedings with respect to any other Holder.

(ii) In the event that fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be redeemed Pro Rata from each Holder of Capital Securities, it being understood that, in respect of Capital Securities registered in the name of and held of record by DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), the distribution of the proceeds of such redemption will be made to each Clearing Agency Participant (or Person on whose behalf such nominee holds such securities) in accordance with the procedures applied by such agency or nominee.

(iii) If Securities are to be redeemed and the Trust gives a Redemption/Distribution Notice, which notice may only be issued if the Debentures are redeemed as set out in this Section 4 (which notice will be irrevocable), then (A) while the Capital Securities are in book-entry only form, with respect to the Capital Securities, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, provided, that the Debenture Issuer has paid to the Institutional Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption or maturity of the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee will deposit irrevocably with DTC or its nominee (or successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price with respect to the Capital Securities and will give DTC (or any successor Clearing Agency) irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Capital Securities, and (B) with respect to Capital Securities issued in definitive form and Common Securities, provided, that the Debenture Issuer has paid the Institutional Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption or maturity of the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee will pay the relevant Redemption Price to the Holders of such Securities by check mailed to the address of the relevant Holder appearing on the books and records of the Trust on the redemption date. If a Redemption/Distribution Notice shall have been given and funds deposited as required, if applicable, then immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such deposit, or on the redemption date, as applicable, distributions will cease to accrue on the Securities so called for redemption and all rights of the Holders of such Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the right of the Holders of such Securities to receive the

I-6

Redemption Price, but without interest on such Redemption Price. Neither the Regular Trustees nor the Trust shall be required to register or cause to be registered the transfer of any Securities that have been so called for redemption. If any date fixed for redemption of Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable 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) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Securities is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Institutional Trustee or by the Sponsor as guarantor pursuant to the relevant Securities Guarantee, Distributions on such Securities will continue to accrue from the original redemption date to the actual date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

(iv) Redemption/Distribution Notices shall be sent by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust to (A) in respect of the Capital Securities, DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) if the Global Certificates have been issued or, if Definitive Capital Security Certificates have been issued, to the Holder thereof and (B) in respect of the Common Securities to the Holder thereof.

(v) Subject to the foregoing and applicable law (including, without limitation, United States federal securities laws), the Debenture Issuer or its affiliates may at any time and from time to time purchase outstanding Capital Securities by tender, in the open market or by private agreement.

5. Voting Rights - Capital Securities.

(a) Except as provided under Sections 5(b) and 7 and as otherwise required by law and the Declaration, the Holders of the Capital Securities will have no voting rights.

(b) Subject to the requirements set forth in this paragraph, the Holders of a Majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities, voting separately as a class, may direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Institutional Trustee under the Declaration, including the right to direct the Institutional Trustee, as holder of the Debentures, to (i) direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or exercise any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, (ii) waive any past Default (as defined in the Indenture) that is waivable under Section 5.6 of the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Debentures where such consent shall be required; provided, however, that, where a consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent or act of each holder of each Debenture affected thereby, such consent or action under the Indenture shall not be effective until each Holder of Capital Securities shall have consented to such action or provided such consent. The Institutional Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of

I-7

the Holders of the Capital Securities. Except with respect to directing the time, method and place of conducting a proceeding for a remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, the Institutional Trustee, as holder of the Debentures, shall not take any of the actions described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that as a result of such action, the Trust will not fail to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. If the Institutional Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Debentures, any Holder of Capital Securities may directly institute a legal proceeding against the Debenture Issuer to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Debentures without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Institutional Trustee or any other Person or entity. If a Default under the Declaration has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of the Debenture Issuer to pay interest or principal on the Debentures on the date such interest or principal is otherwise payable (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), then a holder of Capital Securities may also directly institute a proceeding for enforcement of payment to such holder (a "Direct Action") of the principal of or interest on the Debentures having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the Debentures without first (i) directing the Institutional Trustee to enforce the terms of the Debentures or (ii) instituting a legal proceeding directly against the Debenture Issuer to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Debentures. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Holders of Capital Securities will not be able to exercise directly any other remedy available to the holders of the Debentures. In connection with such Direct Action, Citigroup will be subrogated to the rights of such Holder of Capital Securities under the Declaration to the extent of any payment made by Citigroup to such holder of Capital Securities in such Direct Action.

Any required approval or direction of Holders of Capital Securities may be given at a separate meeting of Holders of Capital Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the Holders of Securities in the Trust or pursuant to written consent. The Regular Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of record of Capital Securities. Each such notice will include a statement setting forth (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

No vote or consent of the Holders of the Capital Securities will be required for the Trust to redeem and cancel Capital Securities or to distribute the Debentures in accordance with this Declaration and the terms of the Securities.

Notwithstanding that Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote or consent under any of the circumstances described above, any of the Capital Securities that are owned by the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor shall not be entitled to vote or consent and shall, for purposes of such vote or consent, be treated as if they were not outstanding.

I-8

6. Voting Rights - Common Securities.

(a) Except as provided under Sections 6(b), (c) and 7 as otherwise required by law and the Declaration, the Holders of the Common Securities will have no voting rights.

(b) The Holders of the Common Securities are entitled, in accordance with and subject to Article V of the Declaration, to vote to appoint, remove or replace any Trustee or to increase or decrease the number of Trustees.

(c) Subject to Section 2.6 of the Declaration and only after the Default with respect to the Capital Securities has been cured, waived, or otherwise eliminated and subject to the requirements of the second to last sentence of this paragraph, the Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities, voting separately as a class, may direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Institutional Trustee under the Declaration, including (i) directing the time, method, place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, (ii) waiving any past Default (as defined in the Indenture) that is waivable under Section 5.6 of the Indenture, or (iii) exercising any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable, provided that, where a consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent or act of the Holders of greater than a majority in principal amount of Debentures affected thereby (a "Super Majority"), the Institutional Trustee may only give such consent or take such action at the written direction of the Holders of at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Common Securities which the relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding. Pursuant to this Section 6(c), the Institutional Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of the Capital Securities. Other than with respect to directing the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee or the Debenture Trustee as set forth above, the Institutional Trustee shall not take any action in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Common Securities under this paragraph unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States federal income tax the Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of such action. If the Institutional Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Declaration, any Holder of Common Securities may institute a legal proceeding directly against any Person to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Declaration, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Institutional Trustee or any other Person.

Any approval or direction of Holders of Common Securities may be given at a separate meeting of Holders of Common Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the Holders of Securities in the Trust or pursuant to written consent. The Regular Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of Common Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of record of Common Securities. Each such notice will include a statement setting forth (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such

I-9

Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

No vote or consent of the Holders of the Common Securities will be required for the Trust to redeem and cancel Common Securities or to distribute the Debentures in accordance with the Declaration and the terms of the Securities.

7. Amendments to Declaration and Indenture.

(a) In addition to any requirements under Section 12.1 of the Declaration, if any proposed amendment to the Declaration provides for, or the Regular Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Declaration or otherwise, or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, other than as described in
Section 8.1 of the Declaration, then the Holders of outstanding Securities as a class, will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal (but not on any other amendment or proposal) and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities, voting together as a single class; provided, however, if any amendment or proposal referred to in clause (i) above would adversely affect only the Capital Securities or only the Common Securities, then only the affected class will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of a Majority in liquidation amount of such class of Securities.

(b) In the event the consent of the Institutional Trustee as the holder of the Debentures is required under the Indenture with respect to any amendment, modification or termination on the Indenture or the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee shall request the written direction of the Holders of the Securities with respect to such amendment, modification or termination and shall vote with respect to such amendment, modification or termination as directed by a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities voting together as a single class; provided, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of the holders of greater than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures (a "Super Majority"), the Institutional Trustee may only give such consent at the direction of the Holders of at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Securities which the relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding; provided, further, that the Institutional Trustee shall not take any action in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Securities under this Section 7(b) unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States federal income tax the Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of such action.

8. Pro Rata.

A reference in these terms of the Securities to any payment, distribution or treatment as being "Pro Rata" shall mean pro rata to each Holder of Securities according to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Securities held by the relevant Holder in relation to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Securities outstanding unless, in relation to a payment, an a Default under the Declaration has occurred and is continuing, in which case any funds available to make such payment shall be paid first to each Holder of the Capital Securities pro rata

I-10

according to the aggregate liquidation amount of Capital Securities held by the relevant Holder relative to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Capital Securities outstanding, and only after satisfaction of all amounts owed to the Holders of the Capital Securities, to each Holder of Common Securities pro rata according to the aggregate liquidation amount of Common Securities held by the relevant Holder relative to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Common Securities outstanding.

9. Ranking.

The Capital Securities rank pari passu and payment thereon shall be made Pro Rata with the Common Securities except that, where a Default (as defined in the Indenture) occurs and is continuing under the Indenture in respect of the Debentures held by the Institutional Trustee, the rights of Holders of the Common Securities to payment in respect of Distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise are subordinated to the rights to payment of the Holders of the Capital Securities.

10. Listing.

The Regular Trustees shall use their best efforts to cause the Capital Securities to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

11. Acceptance of Securities Guarantee and Indenture.

Each Holder of Capital Securities and Common Securities, by the acceptance thereof, agrees to the provisions of the Capital Securities Guarantee, including the subordination provisions therein and to the provisions of the Indenture.

(b) The Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities may, by vote, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Common Securities, waive any past Default with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences, provided, that if the underlying Default under the Indenture:

provided, further each Holder of Common Securities will be deemed to have waived any such Default and all Defaults with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences until all Defaults with respect to the Capital Securities have been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, and until such Defaults with respect to the Capital Securities have been so cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, the Institutional Trustee will be deemed to be acting solely on behalf of the Holders of the Capital Securities and only the Holders of the Capital Securities will have the right to direct the Institutional Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Securities.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6(b), upon the waiver of a Default by the Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities, any such default shall cease to exist and any Default with respect to the Common Securities arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Declaration, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Default with respect to the Common Securities or impair any right consequent thereon.

(c) A waiver of a Default under the Indenture by the Institutional Trustee at the direction of the Holders of the Capital Securities, constitutes a waiver of the corresponding Default under this Declaration. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6(c) shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act and such Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act is hereby expressly excluded from this Declaration and the Securities, as permitted by the Trust Indenture Act.

(ii) any notice of default received from the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, which notice from the Institutional Trustee to the Holders shall state that a Default under the Indenture also constitutes a Default with respect to the Securities; provided that, except for a default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Debentures or in the payment of any sinking fund installment established for the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer of the Institutional Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Securities.

(b) The Institutional Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any default except:

(i) a default under Sections 5.7(b) and 5.7(c) of the Indenture; or

The presence (whether in person or by telephone) of a Regular Trustee at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except where a Regular Trustee attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any activity on the ground that the meeting has not been lawfully called or convened. Unless provided otherwise in this Declaration, any action of the Regular Trustees may be taken at a meeting by vote of a majority of the Regular Trustees present (whether in person or by telephone) and eligible to vote with respect to such matter, provided that a Quorum is present, or without a meeting by the unanimous written consent of the Regular Trustees.

Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer shall be canceled by the Regular Trustees. A transferee of a Certificate shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Holder hereunder upon the receipt by such transferee of a Certificate. By acceptance of a Certificate, each transferee shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by this Declaration.

Unless otherwise specified in the terms of the Capital Securities, the Capital Securities Certificates, on original issuance, will be issued in the form of one or more, fully registered, global Capital Security Certificates (each a "Global Certificate"), to be delivered to DTC, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Trust. Such Global Certificates shall initially be registered on the books and records of the Trust in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, and no Capital Security Beneficial Owner will receive a definitive Capital Security Certificate representing such Capital Security Beneficial Owner's interests in such Global Certificates, except as provided in
Section 9.7. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Capital Security Certificates (the "Definitive Capital Security Certificates") have been issued to the Capital Security Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 9.7:

(a) the provisions of this Section 9.4 shall be in full force and effect;

(b) the Trust and the Trustees shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Declaration (including the payment of Distributions on the Global Certificates and receiving approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the Holder of the Capital Securities and the sole holder of the Global Certificates and shall have no obligation to the Capital Security Beneficial Owners;

(c) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 9.4 conflict with any other provisions of this Declaration, the provisions of this Section 9.4 shall control; and

If:

(a) a Clearing Agency elects to discontinue its services as a securities depositary with respect to the Capital Securities and a successor Clearing Agency is not appointed within 90 days after such discontinuance pursuant to Section 9.6; or

(b) the Regular Trustees elect after consultation with the Sponsor to terminate the book entry system through the Clearing Agency with respect to the Capital Securities,

then:

(c) Definitive Capital Security Certificates shall be prepared by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust with respect to such Capital Securities; and

(d) upon surrender of the Global Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Regular Trustees shall cause Definitive Certificates to be delivered to Capital Security Beneficial Owners in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. Neither the Trustees nor the Trust shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and each of them may conclusively rely on and shall be protected in relying on, said instructions of the Clearing Agency. The Definitive Capital Security Certificates shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or may be produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Regular Trustees, as evidenced by their execution thereof, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements as the Regular Trustees may deem appropriate, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which Capital Securities may be listed, or to conform to usage.

(b) there shall be delivered to the Regular Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to keep each of them harmless.

then, in the absence of notice that such Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, any Regular Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and deliver, in exchange for

32

or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 9.8, the Regular Trustees may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an ownership interest in the relevant Securities, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

ARTICLE X
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF HOLDERS OF
SECURITIES, TRUSTEES OR OTHERS

SECTION 10.1 Liability.

(a) Except as expressly set forth in this Declaration, the Capital Securities Guarantee and the terms of the Securities, the Sponsor shall not be:

(i) personally liable for the return of any portion of the capital contributions (or any return thereon) of the Holders of the Securities which shall be made solely from assets of the Trust; and

(ii) required to pay to the Trust or to any Holder of Securities any deficit upon dissolution of the Trust or otherwise.

SECTION 10.2 Exculpation.

(a) No Indemnified Person shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Trust or any Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Trust and in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Declaration or by law, except that an Indemnified Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

(b) An Indemnified Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Trust and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Trust by any Person as to matters the Indemnified Person reasonably believes are within such other Person's professional or expert competence and who has been selected with

33

reasonable care by or on behalf of the Trust, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions to Holders of Securities might properly be paid.

SECTION 10.3 Fiduciary Duty.

(a) To the extent that, at law or in equity, an Indemnified Person has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to any other Covered Person, an Indemnified Person acting under this Declaration shall not be liable to the Trust or to any other Covered Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Declaration. The provisions of this Declaration, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnified Person otherwise existing at law or in equity (other than the duties imposed on the Institutional Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act), are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Indemnified Person.

(b) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein:

(i) whenever a conflict of interest exists or arises between any Covered Persons; or

(ii) whenever this Declaration or any other agreement contemplated herein or therein provides that an Indemnified Person shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms that are, fair and reasonable to the Trust or any Holder of Securities,

the Indemnified Person shall resolve such conflict of interest, take such action or provide such terms, considering in each case the relative interest of each party (including its own interest) to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles. In the absence of bad faith by the Indemnified Person, the resolution, action or term so made, taken or provided by the Indemnified Person shall not constitute a breach of this Declaration or any other agreement contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of the Indemnified Person at law or in equity or otherwise.

(c) Whenever in this Declaration an Indemnified Person is permitted or required to make a decision:

(i) in its "discretion" or under a grant of similar authority, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Trust or any other Person; or

(ii) in its "good faith" or under another express standard, the Indemnified Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Declaration or by applicable law.

SECTION 10.4 Indemnification.

34

(a) (i) The Debenture Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Trust) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Company Indemnified Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(ii) The Debenture Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Trust to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust and except that no such indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Company Indemnified Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Trust unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(iii) To the extent that a Company Indemnified Person shall be successful on the merits or otherwise (including dismissal of an action without prejudice or the settlement of an action without admission of liability) in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.4(a), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified, to the full extent permitted by law, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

(iv) Any indemnification under paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this
Section 10.4(a) (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Debenture Issuer only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Company Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii). Such determination shall be made (1) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of such Regular Trustees who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding,
(2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by

35

independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the Common Security Holder of the Trust.

(v) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by a Company Indemnified Person in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and
(ii) of this Section 10.4(a) shall be paid by the Debenture Issuer in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Debenture Issuer as authorized in this Section 10.4(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no advance shall be made by the Debenture Issuer if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iii) the Common Security Holder of the Trust, that, based upon the facts known to the Regular Trustees, counsel or the Common Security Holder at the time such determination is made, such Company Indemnified Person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that such Company Indemnified Person believed or had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In no event shall any advance be made in instances where the Regular Trustees, independent legal counsel or Common Security Holder reasonably determine that such person deliberately breached his duty to the Trust or its Common or Capital Security Holders.

(vi) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other paragraphs of this Section 10.4(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification and advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors of the Debenture Issuer or Capital Security Holders of the Trust or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. All rights to indemnification under this Section 10.4(a) shall be deemed to be provided by a contract between the Debenture Issuer and each Company Indemnified Person who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 10.4(a) is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Section 10.4(a) shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing.

(vii) The Debenture Issuer may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Company Indemnified Person against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Debenture Issuer would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Section 10.4(a).

(viii) For purposes of this Section 10.4(a), references to "the Trust" shall include, in addition to the resulting or surviving entity, any constituent entity (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger, so that any person who is or was a director, trustee, officer or employee of such constituent entity, or is or

36

was serving at the request of such constituent entity as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another entity, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Section 10.4(a) with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he would have with respect to such constituent entity if its separate existence had continued.

(ix) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 10.4(a) shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Company Indemnified Person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

(b) The Debenture Issuer agrees to indemnify the (i) Institutional Trustee, (ii) the Delaware Trustee, (iii) any Affiliate of the Institutional Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, and (iv) any officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives, custodians, nominees or agents of the Institutional Trustee and the Delaware Trustee (each of the Persons in (i) through (iv) being referred to as a "Fiduciary Indemnified Person") for, and to hold each Fiduciary Indemnified Person harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration or the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against or investigating any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The obligation to indemnify as set forth in this
Section 10.4(b) shall survive the resignation or removal of the Institutional Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, and the satisfaction and discharge of this Declaration.

SECTION 10.5 Outside Businesses.

Any Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Holders of Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Declaration in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. No Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee, or the Institutional Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and any Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. Any Covered Person, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor, or may act as depositary for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of the Sponsor or its Affiliates.

SECTION 11.2 Certain Accounting Matters.

(a) At all times during the existence of the Trust, the Regular Trustees shall keep, or cause to be kept, full books of account, records and supporting documents, which shall reflect in reasonable detail, each transaction of the Trust. The books of account shall be maintained on the accrual method of accounting, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied. The Trust shall use the accrual method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes.

(c) The Regular Trustees shall cause to be duly prepared and delivered to each of the Holders of Securities, any annual United States federal income tax information statement required by the Code, containing such information with regard to the Securities held by each Holder as is required by the Code and the Treasury Regulations.

To the extent that the Trust is required to withhold and pay over any amounts to any authority with respect to distributions or allocations to any Holder, the amount withheld shall be deemed to be a distribution in the amount of the withholding to the Holder. In the event of any claimed overwithholding, Holders shall be limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction. If the amount required to be withheld was not withheld from actual Distributions made, the Trust may reduce subsequent Distributions by the amount of such withholding.

ANNEX I

TERMS OF
% CAPITAL SECURITIES
% COMMON SECURITIES

Pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, dated as of , 20 (as amended from time to time, the "Declaration"), the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions, preferences and other terms and provisions of the Capital Securities and the Common Securities are set out below (each capitalized term used but not defined herein has the meaning set forth in the Declaration or, if not defined in such Declaration, as defined in the Prospectus referred to below):

1. Designation and Number.

(a) Capital Securities. Capital Securities of the Trust (or up to Capital Securities if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement) with an aggregate liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of dollars ($ ) (or up to ($ ) if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement), and a liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of $ per capital security, are hereby designated for the purposes of identification only as " % Capital Securities" (the "Capital Securities"). The Capital Security Certificates evidencing the Capital Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to the Declaration, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice or to conform to the rules of any stock exchange on which the Capital Securities are listed.

(b) Common Securities. Common Securities of the Trust (or up to Common Securities if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement) with an aggregate liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of dollars ($ ) (or up to ($ ) if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement), and a liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of $ per common security, are hereby designated for the purposes of identification only as " % Common Securities" (the "Common Securities"). The Common Security Certificates evidencing the Common Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 to the Declaration, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice.

2. Distributions.

(a) Distributions payable on each Security will be fixed at a rate per annum of % (the "Coupon Rate") of the stated liquidation amount of $ per Security, such rate being the rate of interest payable on the Debentures to be held by the Institutional Trustee. Distributions in arrears beyond the first date such Distributions are payable (or would be payable, if not for any Extension Period (as defined below) or default by the Debenture Issuer on the Debentures) will bear interest thereon compounded quarterly at the Coupon Rate (to the extent permitted by

I-1

applicable law). The term "Distributions" as used herein includes such cash distributions and any such interest payable unless otherwise stated. A Distribution is payable only to the extent that payments are made in respect of the Debentures held by the Institutional Trustee and to the extent the Institutional Trustee has funds available therefor. The amount of Distributions payable for any period will be computed for any full quarterly Distribution period on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, and for any period shorter than a full quarterly Distribution period for which Distributions are computed, Distributions will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 90-day quarter.

(b) Distributions on the Securities will be cumulative, will accrue from and including , 20 , and will be payable quarterly in arrears, on , , and of each year, commencing on , 20 . When, as and if available for payment, Distributions will be made by the Institutional Trustee, except as otherwise described below. The Debenture Issuer has the right under the Indenture to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period from time to time on the Debentures for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters (each an "Extension Period"), during which Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable on the Debentures, provided, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the date of maturity of the Debentures. As a consequence of the Debenture Issuer's extension of the interest payment period, quarterly Distributions will also be deferred. Despite such deferral, quarterly Distributions will continue to accrue with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate compounded quarterly during any such Extension Period. In the event that the Debenture Issuer exercises its right to extend the interest payment period, then (a) the Debenture Issuer shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto (other than (i) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of Citigroup in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants, (ii) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Citigroup's capital stock for any other class or series of Citigroup's capital stock, or (iii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Citigroup's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged) and (b) the Debenture Issuer shall not make any payment of interest on or principal of (or premium, if any, on), or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by the Debenture Issuer that rank pari passu with or junior to the Debentures. The foregoing, however, will not apply to any stock dividends paid by Citigroup where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid. Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Debenture Issuer may further extend such Extension Period; provided, that such Extension Period, together with all such previous and further extensions thereof, may not exceed 20 consecutive quarters; provided further, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the maturity of the Debentures. Payments of deferred Distributions and accrued interest thereon will be payable to Holders as they appear on the books and records of the Trust on the first record date after the end of the Extension Period. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due, the Debenture Issuer may commence a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. The Regular Trustees will give notice to each Holder of any Extension Period upon their receipt of notice thereof from the Debenture Issuer.

I-2

(c) Distributions on the Securities will be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the books and records of the Trust at the close of business on the relevant record dates. While the Capital Securities remain in book-entry only form, the relevant record dates shall be one Business Day prior to the relevant payment dates which payment dates shall correspond to the interest payment dates on the Debentures. Subject to any applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of the Declaration, each such payment in respect of the Capital Securities will be made as described under the heading "Description of the Capital Securities -- Book-Entry Only Issuance" in the Prospectus dated , 20 (the "Prospectus"), of the Trust included in the Registration Statement on Form S-3 of the Sponsor, the Trust and certain other statutory trusts. The relevant record dates for the Common Securities shall be the same record date as for the Capital Securities. If the Capital Securities shall not continue to remain in book-entry only form, the relevant record dates for the Capital Securities shall conform to the rules of any securities exchange on which the securities are listed and, if none, shall be selected by the Regular Trustees, which dates shall be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the relevant payment dates, which payment dates shall correspond to the interest payment dates on the Debentures. Distributions payable on any Securities that are not punctually paid on any Distribution payment date, as a result of the Debenture Issuer having failed to make a payment under the Debentures, will cease to be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the relevant record date, and such defaulted Distribution will instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the special record date or other specified date determined in accordance with the Indenture. If any date on which Distributions are payable on the Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the Distribution payable 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) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such 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.

(d) In the event that there is any money or other property held by or for the Trust that is not accounted for hereunder, such property shall be distributed Pro Rata (as defined herein) among the Holders of the Securities.

3. Liquidation Distribution Upon Dissolution.

(a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, the Holders of the Securities on the date of the dissolution, winding-up or termination, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to Holders of Securities after satisfaction of liabilities of creditors, distributions in an amount equal to the aggregate of the stated liquidation amount of $ per Security plus accrued and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the "Liquidation Distribution"), unless, in connection with such dissolution, winding-up or termination, Debentures in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate equal to the Coupon Rate, and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Distributions on, such Securities outstanding at such time, have been distributed on a Pro Rata basis to the Holders of the Securities in exchange for such Securities. Prior to any such Liquidation Distribution, the Debenture Issuer will obtain any required regulatory approval.

I-3

(b) If, upon any such dissolution, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then the amounts payable directly by the Trust on the Securities shall be paid on a Pro Rata basis.

4. Redemption and Distribution.

(a) Upon the repayment of the Debentures in whole or in part, whether at maturity or upon redemption (either at the option of the Debenture Issuer or pursuant to a Special Event as described below), the proceeds from such repayment or payment shall be simultaneously applied to redeem Securities having an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures so repaid or redeemed at a redemption price of $ per Security plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid Distributions thereon at the date of the redemption, payable in cash (the "Redemption Price"). Holders shall be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice of such redemption. Prior to any such redemption, the Debenture Issuer will obtain any required regulatory approval.

(b) If fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be so redeemed, the Securities will be redeemed Pro Rata and the Capital Securities to be redeemed will be as described in Section 4(f)(ii) below.

(c) Subject to obtaining any required regulatory approval, if, at any time, a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Regulatory Capital Event (each as defined below, and each a "Special Event") shall occur and be continuing, Citigroup shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, to redeem the Debentures, in whole or in part, for cash within 90 days following the occurrence of such Special Event, and, following such redemption, Securities with an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures so redeemed shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Redemption Price on a Pro Rata basis; provided, however, that if at the time there is available to Citigroup or the Trust the opportunity to eliminate, within such 90-day period, the Special Event by taking some ministerial action, such as filing a form or making an election or pursuing some other similar reasonable measure that will have no adverse effect on the Trust, Citigroup or the holders of the Securities, then Citigroup or the Trust will pursue such measure in lieu of redemption.

"Tax Event" means that the Regular Trustees shall have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters (a "Tax Event Opinion") to the effect that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or any regulations thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (b) any amendment to, or change in, an interpretation or application of such laws or regulations by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (including the enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial decision or regulatory determination on or after the date of the Prospectus), in either case after the date of the Prospectus, there is more than an insubstantial risk that
(i) the Trust would be subject to United States federal income tax with respect to interest accrued or received on the Debentures, (ii) the Trust would be subject to more than a de minimis amount of other taxes, duties or other governmental charges, or (iii) interest payable to the Trust

I-4

on the Debentures would not be deductible, in whole or in part, by the Debenture Issuer for United States federal income tax purposes.

"Investment Company Event" means that the Regular Trustees shall have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent counsel experienced in practice under the Investment Company Act (an "Investment Company Event Opinion") to the effect that, as a result of the occurrence of a change in law or regulation or a written change in interpretation or application of law or regulation by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (a "Change in 1940 Act Law"), there is a more than an insubstantial risk that the Trust is or will be considered an Investment Company which is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act, which Change in 1940 Act Law becomes effective on or after the date of the Prospectus.

"Regulatory Capital Event" means a determination by Citigroup, based on an opinion of counsel experienced in such matters (who may be an employee of Citigroup or any of its affiliates), that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, clarification of or change (including any announced prospective change) in applicable laws or regulations or official interpretations thereof or policies with respect thereto or (b) any official administrative pronouncement or judicial decision interpreting or applying such laws or regulations, which amendment, clarification, change, pronouncement or decision is announced or is effective after the date of the Prospectus, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Capital Securities will no longer constitute Tier I Capital of Citigroup or any bank holding company of which Citigroup is a subsidiary (or its equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines or policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or its successor as Citigroup's primary federal banking regulator.

On and from the date fixed by the Regular Trustees for any distribution of the Debentures and dissolution of the Trust: (i) the Securities will no longer be deemed to be outstanding, (ii) DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), as the record Holder of the Capital Securities, will receive a registered global certificate or certificates representing the Debentures to be delivered upon such distribution and (iii) any certificates representing Securities, except for certificates representing Capital Securities held by DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), will be deemed to represent beneficial interests in the Debentures having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate identical to the Coupon Rate of, and accrued and unpaid interest equal to accrued and unpaid Distributions on such Securities until such certificates are presented to the Debenture Issuer or its agent for transfer or reissue.

(d) The Trust may not redeem fewer than all the outstanding Securities unless all accrued and unpaid Distributions have been paid on all Securities for all quarterly Distribution periods terminating on or before the date of redemption.

(e) If the Debentures are distributed to the Holders of the Securities, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Debenture Issuer will use its best efforts to cause the Debentures to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or on such other exchange as the Capital Securities were listed immediately prior to the distribution of the Debentures.

I-5

(f) Redemption or Distribution procedures will be as follows:

(i) Notice of any redemption of, or notice of distribution of Debentures in exchange for the Securities (a "Redemption/Distribution Notice") will be given by the Trust by mail to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed or exchanged not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption or exchange thereof which, in the case of a redemption, will be the date fixed for redemption of the Debentures. For purposes of the calculation of the date of redemption or exchange and the dates on which notices are given pursuant to this Section
4(f)(i), a Redemption/ Distribution Notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of the Securities. Each Redemption/Distribution Notice shall be addressed to the Holders of the Securities at the address of each such Holder appearing in the books and records of the Trust. No defect in the Redemption/Distribution Notice or in the mailing of either thereof with respect to any Holder shall affect the validity of the redemption or exchange proceedings with respect to any other Holder.

(ii) In the event that fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be redeemed Pro Rata from each Holder of Capital Securities, it being understood that, in respect of Capital Securities registered in the name of and held of record by DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), the distribution of the proceeds of such redemption will be made to each Clearing Agency Participant (or Person on whose behalf such nominee holds such securities) in accordance with the procedures applied by such agency or nominee.

(iii) If Securities are to be redeemed and the Trust gives a Redemption/Distribution Notice, which notice may only be issued if the Debentures are redeemed as set out in this Section 4 (which notice will be irrevocable), then (A) while the Capital Securities are in book-entry only form, with respect to the Capital Securities, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, provided, that the Debenture Issuer has paid to the Institutional Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption or maturity of the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee will deposit irrevocably with DTC or its nominee (or successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price with respect to the Capital Securities and will give DTC (or any successor Clearing Agency) irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Capital Securities, and (B) with respect to Capital Securities issued in definitive form and Common Securities, provided, that the Debenture Issuer has paid the Institutional Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption or maturity of the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee will pay the relevant Redemption Price to the Holders of such Securities by check mailed to the address of the relevant Holder appearing on the books and records of the Trust on the redemption date. If a Redemption/Distribution Notice shall have been given and funds deposited as required, if applicable, then immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such deposit, or on the redemption date, as applicable, distributions will cease to accrue on the Securities so called for redemption and all rights of the Holders of such Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the right of the Holders of such Securities to receive the

I-6

Redemption Price, but without interest on such Redemption Price. Neither the Regular Trustees nor the Trust shall be required to register or cause to be registered the transfer of any Securities that have been so called for redemption. If any date fixed for redemption of Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable 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) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Securities is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Institutional Trustee or by the Sponsor as guarantor pursuant to the relevant Securities Guarantee, Distributions on such Securities will continue to accrue from the original redemption date to the actual date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

(iv) Redemption/Distribution Notices shall be sent by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust to (A) in respect of the Capital Securities, DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) if the Global Certificates have been issued or, if Definitive Capital Security Certificates have been issued, to the Holder thereof and (B) in respect of the Common Securities to the Holder thereof.

(v) Subject to the foregoing and applicable law (including, without limitation, United States federal securities laws), the Debenture Issuer or its affiliates may at any time and from time to time purchase outstanding Capital Securities by tender, in the open market or by private agreement.

5. Voting Rights - Capital Securities.

(a) Except as provided under Sections 5(b) and 7 and as otherwise required by law and the Declaration, the Holders of the Capital Securities will have no voting rights.

(b) Subject to the requirements set forth in this paragraph, the Holders of a Majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities, voting separately as a class, may direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Institutional Trustee under the Declaration, including the right to direct the Institutional Trustee, as holder of the Debentures, to (i) direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or exercise any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, (ii) waive any past Default (as defined in the Indenture) that is waivable under Section 5.6 of the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Debentures where such consent shall be required; provided, however, that, where a consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent or act of each holder of each Debenture affected thereby, such consent or action under the Indenture shall not be effective until each Holder of Capital Securities shall have consented to such action or provided such consent. The Institutional Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of

I-7

the Holders of the Capital Securities. Except with respect to directing the time, method and place of conducting a proceeding for a remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, the Institutional Trustee, as holder of the Debentures, shall not take any of the actions described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that as a result of such action, the Trust will not fail to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. If the Institutional Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Debentures, any Holder of Capital Securities may directly institute a legal proceeding against the Debenture Issuer to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Debentures without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Institutional Trustee or any other Person or entity. If a Default under the Declaration has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of the Debenture Issuer to pay interest or principal on the Debentures on the date such interest or principal is otherwise payable (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), then a holder of Capital Securities may also directly institute a proceeding for enforcement of payment to such holder (a "Direct Action") of the principal of or interest on the Debentures having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the Debentures without first (i) directing the Institutional Trustee to enforce the terms of the Debentures or (ii) instituting a legal proceeding directly against the Debenture Issuer to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Debentures. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Holders of Capital Securities will not be able to exercise directly any other remedy available to the holders of the Debentures. In connection with such Direct Action, Citigroup will be subrogated to the rights of such Holder of Capital Securities under the Declaration to the extent of any payment made by Citigroup to such holder of Capital Securities in such Direct Action.

Any required approval or direction of Holders of Capital Securities may be given at a separate meeting of Holders of Capital Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the Holders of Securities in the Trust or pursuant to written consent. The Regular Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of record of Capital Securities. Each such notice will include a statement setting forth (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

No vote or consent of the Holders of the Capital Securities will be required for the Trust to redeem and cancel Capital Securities or to distribute the Debentures in accordance with this Declaration and the terms of the Securities.

Notwithstanding that Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote or consent under any of the circumstances described above, any of the Capital Securities that are owned by the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor shall not be entitled to vote or consent and shall, for purposes of such vote or consent, be treated as if they were not outstanding.

I-8

6. Voting Rights - Common Securities.

(a) Except as provided under Sections 6(b), (c) and 7 as otherwise required by law and the Declaration, the Holders of the Common Securities will have no voting rights.

(b) The Holders of the Common Securities are entitled, in accordance with and subject to Article V of the Declaration, to vote to appoint, remove or replace any Trustee or to increase or decrease the number of Trustees.

(c) Subject to Section 2.6 of the Declaration and only after the Default with respect to the Capital Securities has been cured, waived, or otherwise eliminated and subject to the requirements of the second to last sentence of this paragraph, the Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities, voting separately as a class, may direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Institutional Trustee under the Declaration, including (i) directing the time, method, place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, (ii) waiving any past Default (as defined in the Indenture) that is waivable under Section 5.6 of the Indenture, or (iii) exercising any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable, provided that, where a consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent or act of the Holders of greater than a majority in principal amount of Debentures affected thereby (a "Super Majority"), the Institutional Trustee may only give such consent or take such action at the written direction of the Holders of at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Common Securities which the relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding. Pursuant to this Section 6(c), the Institutional Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of the Capital Securities. Other than with respect to directing the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee or the Debenture Trustee as set forth above, the Institutional Trustee shall not take any action in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Common Securities under this paragraph unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States federal income tax the Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of such action. If the Institutional Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Declaration, any Holder of Common Securities may institute a legal proceeding directly against any Person to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Declaration, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Institutional Trustee or any other Person.

Any approval or direction of Holders of Common Securities may be given at a separate meeting of Holders of Common Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the Holders of Securities in the Trust or pursuant to written consent. The Regular Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of Common Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of record of Common Securities. Each such notice will include a statement setting forth (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such

I-9

Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

No vote or consent of the Holders of the Common Securities will be required for the Trust to redeem and cancel Common Securities or to distribute the Debentures in accordance with the Declaration and the terms of the Securities.

7. Amendments to Declaration and Indenture.

(a) In addition to any requirements under Section 12.1 of the Declaration, if any proposed amendment to the Declaration provides for, or the Regular Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Declaration or otherwise, or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, other than as described in
Section 8.1 of the Declaration, then the Holders of outstanding Securities as a class, will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal (but not on any other amendment or proposal) and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities, voting together as a single class; provided, however, if any amendment or proposal referred to in clause (i) above would adversely affect only the Capital Securities or only the Common Securities, then only the affected class will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of a Majority in liquidation amount of such class of Securities.

(b) In the event the consent of the Institutional Trustee as the holder of the Debentures is required under the Indenture with respect to any amendment, modification or termination on the Indenture or the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee shall request the written direction of the Holders of the Securities with respect to such amendment, modification or termination and shall vote with respect to such amendment, modification or termination as directed by a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities voting together as a single class; provided, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of the holders of greater than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures (a "Super Majority"), the Institutional Trustee may only give such consent at the direction of the Holders of at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Securities which the relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding; provided, further, that the Institutional Trustee shall not take any action in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Securities under this Section 7(b) unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States federal income tax the Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of such action.

8. Pro Rata.

A reference in these terms of the Securities to any payment, distribution or treatment as being "Pro Rata" shall mean pro rata to each Holder of Securities according to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Securities held by the relevant Holder in relation to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Securities outstanding unless, in relation to a payment, an a Default under the Declaration has occurred and is continuing, in which case any funds available to make such payment shall be paid first to each Holder of the Capital Securities pro rata

I-10

according to the aggregate liquidation amount of Capital Securities held by the relevant Holder relative to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Capital Securities outstanding, and only after satisfaction of all amounts owed to the Holders of the Capital Securities, to each Holder of Common Securities pro rata according to the aggregate liquidation amount of Common Securities held by the relevant Holder relative to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Common Securities outstanding.

9. Ranking.

The Capital Securities rank pari passu and payment thereon shall be made Pro Rata with the Common Securities except that, where a Default (as defined in the Indenture) occurs and is continuing under the Indenture in respect of the Debentures held by the Institutional Trustee, the rights of Holders of the Common Securities to payment in respect of Distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise are subordinated to the rights to payment of the Holders of the Capital Securities.

10. Listing.

The Regular Trustees shall use their best efforts to cause the Capital Securities to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

11. Acceptance of Securities Guarantee and Indenture.

Each Holder of Capital Securities and Common Securities, by the acceptance thereof, agrees to the provisions of the Capital Securities Guarantee, including the subordination provisions therein and to the provisions of the Indenture.

respect to the Common Securities for all purposes of this Declaration without any further act, vote, or consent of the Holders of the Common Securities.

(b) The Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities may, by vote, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Common Securities, waive any past Default with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences, provided, that if the underlying Default under the Indenture:

provided, further each Holder of Common Securities will be deemed to have waived any such Default and all Defaults with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences until all Defaults with respect to the Capital Securities have been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, and until such Defaults with respect to the Capital Securities have been so cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, the Institutional Trustee will be deemed to be acting solely on behalf of the Holders of the Capital Securities and only the Holders of the Capital Securities will have the right to direct the Institutional Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Securities. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6(b) shall be in lieu of Sections 316(a)(1)(A) and 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act and such Sections 316(a)(1)(A) and 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act are hereby expressly excluded from this Declaration and the Securities, as permitted by the Trust Indenture Act. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6(b), upon the waiver of a Default by the Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities, any such default shall cease to exist and any Default with respect to the Common Securities arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Declaration, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Default with respect to the Common Securities or impair any right consequent thereon.

(c) A waiver of a Default under the Indenture by the Institutional Trustee at the direction of the Holders of the Capital Securities, constitutes a waiver of the corresponding Default under this Declaration. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6(c) shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act and such Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act is hereby expressly excluded from this Declaration and the Securities, as permitted by the Trust Indenture Act.

SECTION 2.7 Default; Notice.

(ii) any notice of default received from the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, which notice from the Institutional Trustee to the Holders shall state that a Default under the Indenture also constitutes a Default with respect to the Securities; provided that, except for a default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Debentures or in the payment of any sinking fund installment established for the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer of the Institutional Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Securities.

If a Trustee ceases to hold office for any reason and the number of Trustees is not reduced pursuant to Section 5.1, or if the number of Trustees is increased pursuant to Section 5.1, a vacancy shall occur. A resolution certifying the existence of such vacancy by the Regular Trustees or, if there are more than two, a majority of the Regular Trustees shall be conclusive evidence of the existence of such vacancy. The vacancy shall be filled with a Trustee appointed in accordance with Section 5.6.

26

SECTION 5.8 Effect of Vacancies.

The death, resignation, retirement, removal, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation, incompetence or incapacity to perform the duties of a Trustee shall not operate to annul the Trust. Whenever a vacancy in the number of Regular Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled by the appointment of a Regular Trustee in accordance with Section 5.6, the Regular Trustees in office, regardless of their number, shall have all the powers granted to the Regular Trustees and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the Regular Trustees by this Declaration.

If there is more than one Regular Trustee, meetings of the Regular Trustees shall be held from time to time upon the call of any Regular Trustee.

Notices shall contain a brief statement of the time, place and anticipated purposes of the meeting. The presence (whether in person or by telephone) of a Regular Trustee at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except where a Regular Trustee attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any activity on the ground that the meeting has not been lawfully called or convened. Unless provided otherwise in this Declaration, any action of the Regular Trustees may be taken at a meeting by vote of a majority of the Regular Trustees present (whether in person or by telephone) and eligible to vote with respect to such matter, provided that a Quorum is present, or without a meeting by the unanimous written consent of the Regular Trustees. In the event there is only one Regular Trustee, any and all action of such Regular Trustee shall be evidenced by a written consent of such Regular Trustee.

(b) the Regular Trustees shall have power to delegate from time to time to such of their number or to officers of the Trust the doing of such things and the execution of such instruments either in the name of the Trust or the names of the Regular Trustees or otherwise as the Regular Trustees may deem expedient, to the extent such delegation is not prohibited by applicable law or contrary to the provisions of the Trust, as set forth herein.

(b) Subject to this Article IX, Capital Securities shall be freely transferable.

(c) Subject to this Article IX, the Sponsor and any Related Party may only transfer Common Securities to the Sponsor or a Related Party of the Sponsor; provided, that any such transfer is subject to the condition precedent that the transferor obtain the written opinion of nationally recognized independent counsel experienced in such matters that such transfer would not cause more than an insubstantial risk that:

Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer shall be canceled by the Regular Trustees. A transferee of a Certificate shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Holder hereunder upon the receipt by such transferee of a Certificate. By acceptance of a Certificate, each transferee shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by this Declaration.

SECTION 9.3 Deemed Security Holders.

The Trustees may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate shall be registered on the books and records of the Trust as the sole holder of such Certificate and of the Securities represented by such Certificate for purposes of receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Certificate or in the Securities represented by such Certificate on the part of any Person, whether or not the Trust shall have actual or other notice thereof.

SECTION 9.4 Book Entry Interests.

Unless otherwise specified in the terms of the Capital Securities, the Capital Securities Certificates, on original issuance, will be issued in the form of one or more, fully registered, global Capital Security Certificates (each a "Global Certificate"), to be delivered to DTC, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Trust. Such Global Certificates shall initially be registered on the books and records of the Trust in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, and no Capital Security Beneficial Owner will receive a definitive Capital Security Certificate representing such Capital Security Beneficial Owner's interests in such Global Certificates, except as provided in
Section 9.7. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Capital Security Certificates (the "Definitive Capital Security Certificates") have been issued to the Capital Security Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 9.7:

(a) the provisions of this Section 9.4 shall be in full force and effect;

(b) the Trust and the Trustees shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Declaration (including the payment of Distributions on the Global Certificates and receiving approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the Holder of the Capital Securities and the sole holder of the Global Certificates and shall have no obligation to the Capital Security Beneficial Owners;

(c) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 9.4 conflict with any other provisions of this Declaration, the provisions of this Section 9.4 shall control; and

(d) the rights of the Capital Security Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Capital Security Beneficial Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of Distributions on the Global Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants. DTC will make book entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants.

SECTION 9.5 Notices to Clearing Agency.

Whenever a notice or other communication to the Capital Security Holders is required under this Declaration, unless and until Definitive Capital Security Certificates shall have been issued to the Capital Security Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 9.7, the Regular Trustees shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to the Capital Security Holders to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no notice obligations to the Capital Security Beneficial Owners.

If any Clearing Agency elects to discontinue its services as a securities depositary with respect to the Capital Securities, the Regular Trustees may, in their sole discretion, appoint a successor Clearing Agency with respect to such Capital Securities.

SECTION 9.7 Definitive Capital Security Certificates.

If:

(a) a Clearing Agency elects to discontinue its services as a securities depositary with respect to the Capital Securities and a successor Clearing Agency is not appointed within 90 days after such discontinuance pursuant to Section 9.6; or

(b) the Regular Trustees elect after consultation with the Sponsor to terminate the book entry system through the Clearing Agency with respect to the Capital Securities,

then:

(c) Definitive Capital Security Certificates shall be prepared by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust with respect to such Capital Securities; and

(d) upon surrender of the Global Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Regular Trustees shall cause Definitive Certificates to be delivered to Capital Security Beneficial Owners in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. Neither the Trustees nor the Trust shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and each of them may conclusively rely on and shall be protected in relying on, said instructions of the Clearing Agency. The Definitive Capital Security Certificates shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or may be produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Regular Trustees, as evidenced by their execution thereof, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements as the Regular Trustees may deem appropriate, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which Capital Securities may be listed, or to conform to usage.

SECTION 9.8 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

(b) there shall be delivered to the Regular Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to keep each of them harmless.

then, in the absence of notice that such Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, any Regular Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and deliver, in exchange for

32

or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 9.8, the Regular Trustees may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an ownership interest in the relevant Securities, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

ARTICLE X
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF HOLDERS OF
SECURITIES, TRUSTEES OR OTHERS

SECTION 10.1 Liability.

(a) Except as expressly set forth in this Declaration, the Capital Securities Guarantee and the terms of the Securities, the Sponsor shall not be:

(i) personally liable for the return of any portion of the capital contributions (or any return thereon) of the Holders of the Securities which shall be made solely from assets of the Trust; and

(ii) required to pay to the Trust or to any Holder of Securities any deficit upon dissolution of the Trust or otherwise.

SECTION 10.2 Exculpation.

(a) No Indemnified Person shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Trust or any Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Trust and in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Declaration or by law, except that an Indemnified Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

(b) An Indemnified Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Trust and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Trust by any Person as to matters the Indemnified Person reasonably believes are within such other Person's professional or expert competence and who has been selected with

33

reasonable care by or on behalf of the Trust, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions to Holders of Securities might properly be paid.

SECTION 10.3 Fiduciary Duty.

(a) To the extent that, at law or in equity, an Indemnified Person has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to any other Covered Person, an Indemnified Person acting under this Declaration shall not be liable to the Trust or to any other Covered Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Declaration. The provisions of this Declaration, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnified Person otherwise existing at law or in equity (other than the duties imposed on the Institutional Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act), are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Indemnified Person.

(b) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein:

(i) whenever a conflict of interest exists or arises between any Covered Persons; or

(ii) whenever this Declaration or any other agreement contemplated herein or therein provides that an Indemnified Person shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms that are, fair and reasonable to the Trust or any Holder of Securities,

the Indemnified Person shall resolve such conflict of interest, take such action or provide such terms, considering in each case the relative interest of each party (including its own interest) to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles. In the absence of bad faith by the Indemnified Person, the resolution, action or term so made, taken or provided by the Indemnified Person shall not constitute a breach of this Declaration or any other agreement contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of the Indemnified Person at law or in equity or otherwise.

(c) Whenever in this Declaration an Indemnified Person is permitted or required to make a decision:

(i) in its "discretion" or under a grant of similar authority, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Trust or any other Person; or

(ii) in its "good faith" or under another express standard, the Indemnified Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Declaration or by applicable law.

SECTION 10.4 Indemnification.

34

(a) (i) The Debenture Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Trust) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Company Indemnified Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(ii) The Debenture Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Trust to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust and except that no such indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Company Indemnified Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Trust unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(iii) To the extent that a Company Indemnified Person shall be successful on the merits or otherwise (including dismissal of an action without prejudice or the settlement of an action without admission of liability) in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.4(a), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified, to the full extent permitted by law, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

(iv) Any indemnification under paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this
Section 10.4(a) (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Debenture Issuer only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Company Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii). Such determination shall be made (1) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of such Regular Trustees who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding,
(2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by

35

independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the Common Security Holder of the Trust.

(v) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by a Company Indemnified Person in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and
(ii) of this Section 10.4(a) shall be paid by the Debenture Issuer in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Debenture Issuer as authorized in this Section 10.4(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no advance shall be made by the Debenture Issuer if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iii) the Common Security Holder of the Trust, that, based upon the facts known to the Regular Trustees, counsel or the Common Security Holder at the time such determination is made, such Company Indemnified Person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that such Company Indemnified Person believed or had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In no event shall any advance be made in instances where the Regular Trustees, independent legal counsel or Common Security Holder reasonably determine that such person deliberately breached his duty to the Trust or its Common or Capital Security Holders.

(vi) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other paragraphs of this Section 10.4(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification and advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors of the Debenture Issuer or Capital Security Holders of the Trust or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. All rights to indemnification under this Section 10.4(a) shall be deemed to be provided by a contract between the Debenture Issuer and each Company Indemnified Person who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 10.4(a) is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Section 10.4(a) shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing.

(vii) The Debenture Issuer may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Company Indemnified Person against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Debenture Issuer would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Section 10.4(a).

(viii) For purposes of this Section 10.4(a), references to "the Trust" shall include, in addition to the resulting or surviving entity, any constituent entity (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger, so that any person who is or was a director, trustee, officer or employee of such constituent entity, or is or

36

was serving at the request of such constituent entity as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another entity, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Section 10.4(a) with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he would have with respect to such constituent entity if its separate existence had continued.

(ix) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 10.4(a) shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Company Indemnified Person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

(b) The Debenture Issuer agrees to indemnify the (i) Institutional Trustee, (ii) the Delaware Trustee, (iii) any Affiliate of the Institutional Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, and (iv) any officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives, custodians, nominees or agents of the Institutional Trustee and the Delaware Trustee (each of the Persons in (i) through (iv) being referred to as a "Fiduciary Indemnified Person") for, and to hold each Fiduciary Indemnified Person harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration or the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against or investigating any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The obligation to indemnify as set forth in this
Section 10.4(b) shall survive the resignation or removal of the Institutional Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, and the satisfaction and discharge of this Declaration.

SECTION 10.5 Outside Businesses.

Any Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Holders of Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Declaration in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. No Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee, or the Institutional Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and any Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. Any Covered Person, the Delaware Trustee and the Institutional Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor, or may act as depositary for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of the Sponsor or its Affiliates.

The books of account shall be maintained on the accrual method of accounting, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied. The Trust shall use the accrual method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes.

(c) The Regular Trustees shall cause to be duly prepared and delivered to each of the Holders of Securities, any annual United States federal income tax information statement required by the Code, containing such information with regard to the Securities held by each Holder as is required by the Code and the Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding any right under the Code to deliver any such statement at a later date, the Regular Trustees shall endeavor to deliver all such statements within 30 days after the end of each Fiscal Year of the Trust.

(d) The Regular Trustees shall cause to be duly prepared and filed with the appropriate taxing authority, an annual United States federal income tax return, on a Form 1041 or such other form required by United States federal income tax law, and any other annual income tax returns required to be filed by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust with any state or local taxing authority.

38

shall reasonably be requested by the Trust to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its withholding obligations. The Regular Trustees shall file required forms with applicable jurisdictions and, unless an exemption from withholding is properly established by a Holder, shall remit amounts withheld with respect to the Holder to applicable jurisdictions. To the extent that the Trust is required to withhold and pay over any amounts to any authority with respect to distributions or allocations to any Holder, the amount withheld shall be deemed to be a distribution in the amount of the withholding to the Holder. In the event of any claimed overwithholding, Holders shall be limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction. If the amount required to be withheld was not withheld from actual Distributions made, the Trust may reduce subsequent Distributions by the amount of such withholding.

The Regular Trustees shall call a meeting of the Holders of such class if directed to do so by the Holders of Securities representing at least 10% in liquidation amount of such class of Securities. Such direction shall be given by delivering to the Regular Trustees one or more calls in a writing stating that the signing Holders of Securities wish to call a meeting and indicating the general or specific purpose for which the meeting is to be called. Any Holders of Securities calling a meeting shall specify in writing the Security Certificates held by the Holders of Securities exercising the right to call a meeting and only those Securities specified shall be counted for purposes of determining whether the required percentage set forth in the second sentence of this paragraph has been met.

(b) Except to the extent otherwise provided in the terms of the Securities, the following provisions shall apply to meetings of Holders of Securities:

(i) notice of any such meeting shall be given to all the Holders of Securities having a right to vote thereat at least 7 days and not more than 60 days before the date of such meeting.

Any action that may be taken at a meeting of the Holders of Securities may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing setting forth the action so taken is signed by the Holders of Securities owning not less than the minimum amount of Securities in liquidation amount that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Holders of Securities having a right to vote thereon were present and voting. Prompt notice of the taking of action without a meeting shall be given to the Holders of Securities entitled to vote who have not consented in writing. The Regular Trustees may specify that any written ballot submitted to the Security Holder for the purpose of taking any action without a meeting shall be returned to the Trust within the time specified by the Regular Trustees;

(ii) each Holder of a Security may authorize any Person to act for it by proxy on all matters in which a Holder of Securities is entitled to participate, including waiving notice of any meeting, or voting or participating at a meeting. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of 11 months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Holder of Securities executing it. Except as otherwise provided herein, all matters relating to the giving, voting or validity of proxies shall be governed by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware relating to proxies, and judicial interpretations thereunder, as if the Trust were a Delaware corporation and the Holders of the Securities were stockholders of a Delaware corporation;

(iii) each meeting of the Holders of the Securities shall be conducted by the Regular Trustees or by such other Person that the Regular Trustees may designate; and

41

(iv) unless the Statutory Trust Act, this Declaration, the terms of the Securities, the Trust Indenture Act or the listing rules of any stock exchange on which the Capital Securities are then listed or trading, otherwise provides, the Regular Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall establish all other provisions relating to meetings of Holders of Securities, including notice of the time, place or purpose of any meeting at which any matter is to be voted on by any Holders of Securities, waiver of any such notice, action by consent without a meeting, the establishment of a record date, quorum requirements, voting in person or by proxy or any other matter with respect to the exercise of any such right to vote.

ANNEX I

TERMS OF
% CAPITAL SECURITIES
% COMMON SECURITIES

Pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, dated as of , 20 (as amended from time to time, the "Declaration"), the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions, preferences and other terms and provisions of the Capital Securities and the Common Securities are set out below (each capitalized term used but not defined herein has the meaning set forth in the Declaration or, if not defined in such Declaration, as defined in the Prospectus referred to below):

1. Designation and Number.

(a) Capital Securities. Capital Securities of the Trust (or up to Capital Securities if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement) with an aggregate liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of dollars ($ ) (or up to ($ ) if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement), and a liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of $ per capital security, are hereby designated for the purposes of identification only as " % Capital Securities" (the "Capital Securities"). The Capital Security Certificates evidencing the Capital Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to the Declaration, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice or to conform to the rules of any stock exchange on which the Capital Securities are listed.

(b) Common Securities. Common Securities of the Trust (or up to Common Securities if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement) with an aggregate liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of dollars ($ ) (or up to ($ ) if the over-allotment option is exercised pursuant to Section of the Underwriting Agreement), and a liquidation amount with respect to the assets of the Trust of $ per common security, are hereby designated for the purposes of identification only as " % Common Securities" (the "Common Securities"). The Common Security Certificates evidencing the Common Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 to the Declaration, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice.

2. Distributions.

(a) Distributions payable on each Security will be fixed at a rate per annum of % (the "Coupon Rate") of the stated liquidation amount of $ per Security, such rate being the rate of interest payable on the Debentures to be held by the Institutional Trustee. Distributions in arrears beyond the first date such Distributions are payable (or would be payable, if not for any Extension Period (as defined below) or default by the Debenture Issuer on the Debentures) will bear interest thereon compounded quarterly at the Coupon Rate (to the extent permitted by

I-1

applicable law). The term "Distributions" as used herein includes such cash distributions and any such interest payable unless otherwise stated. A Distribution is payable only to the extent that payments are made in respect of the Debentures held by the Institutional Trustee and to the extent the Institutional Trustee has funds available therefor. The amount of Distributions payable for any period will be computed for any full quarterly Distribution period on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, and for any period shorter than a full quarterly Distribution period for which Distributions are computed, Distributions will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 90-day quarter.

(b) Distributions on the Securities will be cumulative, will accrue from and including , 20 , and will be payable quarterly in arrears, on , , and of each year, commencing on , 20 . When, as and if available for payment, Distributions will be made by the Institutional Trustee, except as otherwise described below. The Debenture Issuer has the right under the Indenture to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period from time to time on the Debentures for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters (each an "Extension Period"), during which Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable on the Debentures, provided, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the date of maturity of the Debentures. As a consequence of the Debenture Issuer's extension of the interest payment period, quarterly Distributions will also be deferred. Despite such deferral, quarterly Distributions will continue to accrue with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate compounded quarterly during any such Extension Period. In the event that the Debenture Issuer exercises its right to extend the interest payment period, then (a) the Debenture Issuer shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto (other than (i) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of Citigroup in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants, (ii) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Citigroup's capital stock for any other class or series of Citigroup's capital stock, or (iii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Citigroup's capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged) and (b) the Debenture Issuer shall not make any payment of interest on or principal of (or premium, if any, on), or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by the Debenture Issuer that rank pari passu with or junior to the Debentures. The foregoing, however, will not apply to any stock dividends paid by Citigroup where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid. Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Debenture Issuer may further extend such Extension Period; provided, that such Extension Period, together with all such previous and further extensions thereof, may not exceed 20 consecutive quarters; provided further, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the maturity of the Debentures. Payments of deferred Distributions and accrued interest thereon will be payable to Holders as they appear on the books and records of the Trust on the first record date after the end of the Extension Period. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due, the Debenture Issuer may commence a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. The Regular Trustees will give notice to each Holder of any Extension Period upon their receipt of notice thereof from the Debenture Issuer.

I-2

(c) Distributions on the Securities will be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the books and records of the Trust at the close of business on the relevant record dates. While the Capital Securities remain in book-entry only form, the relevant record dates shall be one Business Day prior to the relevant payment dates which payment dates shall correspond to the interest payment dates on the Debentures. Subject to any applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of the Declaration, each such payment in respect of the Capital Securities will be made as described under the heading "Description of the Capital Securities -- Book-Entry Only Issuance" in the Prospectus dated , 20 (the "Prospectus"), of the Trust included in the Registration Statement on Form S-3 of the Sponsor, the Trust and certain other statutory trusts. The relevant record dates for the Common Securities shall be the same record date as for the Capital Securities. If the Capital Securities shall not continue to remain in book-entry only form, the relevant record dates for the Capital Securities shall conform to the rules of any securities exchange on which the securities are listed and, if none, shall be selected by the Regular Trustees, which dates shall be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the relevant payment dates, which payment dates shall correspond to the interest payment dates on the Debentures. Distributions payable on any Securities that are not punctually paid on any Distribution payment date, as a result of the Debenture Issuer having failed to make a payment under the Debentures, will cease to be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the relevant record date, and such defaulted Distribution will instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Securities are registered on the special record date or other specified date determined in accordance with the Indenture. If any date on which Distributions are payable on the Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the Distribution payable 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) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such 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.

(d) In the event that there is any money or other property held by or for the Trust that is not accounted for hereunder, such property shall be distributed Pro Rata (as defined herein) among the Holders of the Securities.

3. Liquidation Distribution Upon Dissolution.

(a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, the Holders of the Securities on the date of the dissolution, winding-up or termination, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to Holders of Securities after satisfaction of liabilities of creditors, distributions in an amount equal to the aggregate of the stated liquidation amount of $ per Security plus accrued and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the "Liquidation Distribution"), unless, in connection with such dissolution, winding-up or termination, Debentures in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate equal to the Coupon Rate, and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Distributions on, such Securities outstanding at such time, have been distributed on a Pro Rata basis to the Holders of the Securities in exchange for such Securities. Prior to any such Liquidation Distribution, the Debenture Issuer will obtain any required regulatory approval.

I-3

(b) If, upon any such dissolution, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then the amounts payable directly by the Trust on the Securities shall be paid on a Pro Rata basis.

4. Redemption and Distribution.

(a) Upon the repayment of the Debentures in whole or in part, whether at maturity or upon redemption (either at the option of the Debenture Issuer or pursuant to a Special Event as described below), the proceeds from such repayment or payment shall be simultaneously applied to redeem Securities having an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures so repaid or redeemed at a redemption price of $ per Security plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid Distributions thereon at the date of the redemption, payable in cash (the "Redemption Price"). Holders shall be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice of such redemption. Prior to any such redemption, the Debenture Issuer will obtain any required regulatory approval.

(b) If fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be so redeemed, the Securities will be redeemed Pro Rata and the Capital Securities to be redeemed will be as described in Section 4(f)(ii) below.

(c) Subject to obtaining any required regulatory approval, if, at any time, a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Regulatory Capital Event (each as defined below, and each a "Special Event") shall occur and be continuing, Citigroup shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, to redeem the Debentures, in whole or in part, for cash within 90 days following the occurrence of such Special Event, and, following such redemption, Securities with an aggregate liquidation amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures so redeemed shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Redemption Price on a Pro Rata basis; provided, however, that if at the time there is available to Citigroup or the Trust the opportunity to eliminate, within such 90-day period, the Special Event by taking some ministerial action, such as filing a form or making an election or pursuing some other similar reasonable measure that will have no adverse effect on the Trust, Citigroup or the holders of the Securities, then Citigroup or the Trust will pursue such measure in lieu of redemption.

"Tax Event" means that the Regular Trustees shall have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters (a "Tax Event Opinion") to the effect that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or any regulations thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (b) any amendment to, or change in, an interpretation or application of such laws or regulations by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (including the enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial decision or regulatory determination on or after the date of the Prospectus), in either case after the date of the Prospectus, there is more than an insubstantial risk that
(i) the Trust would be subject to United States federal income tax with respect to interest accrued or received on the Debentures, (ii) the Trust would be subject to more than a de minimis amount of other taxes, duties or other governmental charges, or (iii) interest payable to the Trust

I-4

on the Debentures would not be deductible, in whole or in part, by the Debenture Issuer for United States federal income tax purposes.

"Investment Company Event" means that the Regular Trustees shall have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent counsel experienced in practice under the Investment Company Act (an "Investment Company Event Opinion") to the effect that, as a result of the occurrence of a change in law or regulation or a written change in interpretation or application of law or regulation by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (a "Change in 1940 Act Law"), there is a more than an insubstantial risk that the Trust is or will be considered an Investment Company which is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act, which Change in 1940 Act Law becomes effective on or after the date of the Prospectus.

"Regulatory Capital Event" means a determination by Citigroup, based on an opinion of counsel experienced in such matters (who may be an employee of Citigroup or any of its affiliates), that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, clarification of or change (including any announced prospective change) in applicable laws or regulations or official interpretations thereof or policies with respect thereto or (b) any official administrative pronouncement or judicial decision interpreting or applying such laws or regulations, which amendment, clarification, change, pronouncement or decision is announced or is effective after the date of the Prospectus, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Capital Securities will no longer constitute Tier I Capital of Citigroup or any bank holding company of which Citigroup is a subsidiary (or its equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines or policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or its successor as Citigroup's primary federal banking regulator.

On and from the date fixed by the Regular Trustees for any distribution of the Debentures and dissolution of the Trust: (i) the Securities will no longer be deemed to be outstanding, (ii) DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), as the record Holder of the Capital Securities, will receive a registered global certificate or certificates representing the Debentures to be delivered upon such distribution and (iii) any certificates representing Securities, except for certificates representing Capital Securities held by DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), will be deemed to represent beneficial interests in the Debentures having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of, with an interest rate identical to the Coupon Rate of, and accrued and unpaid interest equal to accrued and unpaid Distributions on such Securities until such certificates are presented to the Debenture Issuer or its agent for transfer or reissue.

(d) The Trust may not redeem fewer than all the outstanding Securities unless all accrued and unpaid Distributions have been paid on all Securities for all quarterly Distribution periods terminating on or before the date of redemption.

(e) If the Debentures are distributed to the Holders of the Securities, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Debenture Issuer will use its best efforts to cause the Debentures to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or on such other exchange as the Capital Securities were listed immediately prior to the distribution of the Debentures.

I-5

(f) Redemption or Distribution procedures will be as follows:

(i) Notice of any redemption of, or notice of distribution of Debentures in exchange for the Securities (a "Redemption/Distribution Notice") will be given by the Trust by mail to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed or exchanged not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption or exchange thereof which, in the case of a redemption, will be the date fixed for redemption of the Debentures. For purposes of the calculation of the date of redemption or exchange and the dates on which notices are given pursuant to this Section
4(f)(i), a Redemption/ Distribution Notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of the Securities. Each Redemption/Distribution Notice shall be addressed to the Holders of the Securities at the address of each such Holder appearing in the books and records of the Trust. No defect in the Redemption/Distribution Notice or in the mailing of either thereof with respect to any Holder shall affect the validity of the redemption or exchange proceedings with respect to any other Holder.

(ii) In the event that fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be redeemed Pro Rata from each Holder of Capital Securities, it being understood that, in respect of Capital Securities registered in the name of and held of record by DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), the distribution of the proceeds of such redemption will be made to each Clearing Agency Participant (or Person on whose behalf such nominee holds such securities) in accordance with the procedures applied by such agency or nominee.

(iii) If Securities are to be redeemed and the Trust gives a Redemption/Distribution Notice, which notice may only be issued if the Debentures are redeemed as set out in this Section 4 (which notice will be irrevocable), then (A) while the Capital Securities are in book-entry only form, with respect to the Capital Securities, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, provided, that the Debenture Issuer has paid to the Institutional Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption or maturity of the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee will deposit irrevocably with DTC or its nominee (or successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price with respect to the Capital Securities and will give DTC (or any successor Clearing Agency) irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Capital Securities, and (B) with respect to Capital Securities issued in definitive form and Common Securities, provided, that the Debenture Issuer has paid the Institutional Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption or maturity of the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee will pay the relevant Redemption Price to the Holders of such Securities by check mailed to the address of the relevant Holder appearing on the books and records of the Trust on the redemption date. If a Redemption/Distribution Notice shall have been given and funds deposited as required, if applicable, then immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such deposit, or on the redemption date, as applicable, distributions will cease to accrue on the Securities so called for redemption and all rights of the Holders of such Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the right of the Holders of such Securities to receive the

I-6

Redemption Price, but without interest on such Redemption Price. Neither the Regular Trustees nor the Trust shall be required to register or cause to be registered the transfer of any Securities that have been so called for redemption. If any date fixed for redemption of Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable 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) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Securities is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Institutional Trustee or by the Sponsor as guarantor pursuant to the relevant Securities Guarantee, Distributions on such Securities will continue to accrue from the original redemption date to the actual date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

(iv) Redemption/Distribution Notices shall be sent by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust to (A) in respect of the Capital Securities, DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) if the Global Certificates have been issued or, if Definitive Capital Security Certificates have been issued, to the Holder thereof and (B) in respect of the Common Securities to the Holder thereof.

(v) Subject to the foregoing and applicable law (including, without limitation, United States federal securities laws), the Debenture Issuer or its affiliates may at any time and from time to time purchase outstanding Capital Securities by tender, in the open market or by private agreement.

5. Voting Rights - Capital Securities.

(a) Except as provided under Sections 5(b) and 7 and as otherwise required by law and the Declaration, the Holders of the Capital Securities will have no voting rights.

(b) Subject to the requirements set forth in this paragraph, the Holders of a Majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities, voting separately as a class, may direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Institutional Trustee under the Declaration, including the right to direct the Institutional Trustee, as holder of the Debentures, to (i) direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or exercise any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, (ii) waive any past Default (as defined in the Indenture) that is waivable under Section 5.6 of the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Debentures where such consent shall be required; provided, however, that, where a consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent or act of each holder of each Debenture affected thereby, such consent or action under the Indenture shall not be effective until each Holder of Capital Securities shall have consented to such action or provided such consent. The Institutional Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of

I-7

the Holders of the Capital Securities. Except with respect to directing the time, method and place of conducting a proceeding for a remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, the Institutional Trustee, as holder of the Debentures, shall not take any of the actions described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that as a result of such action, the Trust will not fail to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. If the Institutional Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Debentures, any Holder of Capital Securities may directly institute a legal proceeding against the Debenture Issuer to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Debentures without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Institutional Trustee or any other Person or entity. If a Default under the Declaration has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of the Debenture Issuer to pay interest or principal on the Debentures on the date such interest or principal is otherwise payable (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), then a holder of Capital Securities may also directly institute a proceeding for enforcement of payment to such holder (a "Direct Action") of the principal of or interest on the Debentures having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the Debentures without first (i) directing the Institutional Trustee to enforce the terms of the Debentures or (ii) instituting a legal proceeding directly against the Debenture Issuer to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Debentures. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Holders of Capital Securities will not be able to exercise directly any other remedy available to the holders of the Debentures. In connection with such Direct Action, Citigroup will be subrogated to the rights of such Holder of Capital Securities under the Declaration to the extent of any payment made by Citigroup to such holder of Capital Securities in such Direct Action.

Any required approval or direction of Holders of Capital Securities may be given at a separate meeting of Holders of Capital Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the Holders of Securities in the Trust or pursuant to written consent. The Regular Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of record of Capital Securities. Each such notice will include a statement setting forth (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

No vote or consent of the Holders of the Capital Securities will be required for the Trust to redeem and cancel Capital Securities or to distribute the Debentures in accordance with this Declaration and the terms of the Securities.

Notwithstanding that Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote or consent under any of the circumstances described above, any of the Capital Securities that are owned by the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor shall not be entitled to vote or consent and shall, for purposes of such vote or consent, be treated as if they were not outstanding.

6. Voting Rights - Common Securities.

(a) Except as provided under Sections 6(b), (c) and 7 as otherwise required by law and the Declaration, the Holders of the Common Securities will have no voting rights.

(b) The Holders of the Common Securities are entitled, in accordance with and subject to Article V of the Declaration, to vote to appoint, remove or replace any Trustee or to increase or decrease the number of Trustees.

(c) Subject to Section 2.6 of the Declaration and only after the Default with respect to the Capital Securities has been cured, waived, or otherwise eliminated and subject to the requirements of the second to last sentence of this paragraph, the Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Common Securities, voting separately as a class, may direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Institutional Trustee under the Declaration, including (i) directing the time, method, place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, (ii) waiving any past Default (as defined in the Indenture) that is waivable under Section 5.6 of the Indenture, or (iii) exercising any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable, provided that, where a consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent or act of the Holders of greater than a majority in principal amount of Debentures affected thereby (a "Super Majority"), the Institutional Trustee may only give such consent or take such action at the written direction of the Holders of at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Common Securities which the relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding. Pursuant to this Section 6(c), the Institutional Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of the Capital Securities. Other than with respect to directing the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Institutional Trustee or the Debenture Trustee as set forth above, the Institutional Trustee shall not take any action in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Common Securities under this paragraph unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States federal income tax the Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of such action. If the Institutional Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Declaration, any Holder of Common Securities may institute a legal proceeding directly against any Person to enforce the Institutional Trustee's rights under the Declaration, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Institutional Trustee or any other Person.

Any approval or direction of Holders of Common Securities may be given at a separate meeting of Holders of Common Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the Holders of Securities in the Trust or pursuant to written consent. The Regular Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of Common Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of record of Common Securities. Each such notice will include a statement setting forth (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such

I-9

Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

No vote or consent of the Holders of the Common Securities will be required for the Trust to redeem and cancel Common Securities or to distribute the Debentures in accordance with the Declaration and the terms of the Securities.

7. Amendments to Declaration and Indenture.

(a) In addition to any requirements under Section 12.1 of the Declaration, if any proposed amendment to the Declaration provides for, or the Regular Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Declaration or otherwise, or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, other than as described in
Section 8.1 of the Declaration, then the Holders of outstanding Securities as a class, will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal (but not on any other amendment or proposal) and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities, voting together as a single class; provided, however, if any amendment or proposal referred to in clause (i) above would adversely affect only the Capital Securities or only the Common Securities, then only the affected class will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of a Majority in liquidation amount of such class of Securities.

(b) In the event the consent of the Institutional Trustee as the holder of the Debentures is required under the Indenture with respect to any amendment, modification or termination on the Indenture or the Debentures, the Institutional Trustee shall request the written direction of the Holders of the Securities with respect to such amendment, modification or termination and shall vote with respect to such amendment, modification or termination as directed by a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities voting together as a single class; provided, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of the holders of greater than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures (a "Super Majority"), the Institutional Trustee may only give such consent at the direction of the Holders of at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Securities which the relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding; provided, further, that the Institutional Trustee shall not take any action in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Securities under this Section 7(b) unless the Institutional Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States federal income tax the Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of such action.

8. Pro Rata.

A reference in these terms of the Securities to any payment, distribution or treatment as being "Pro Rata" shall mean pro rata to each Holder of Securities according to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Securities held by the relevant Holder in relation to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Securities outstanding unless, in relation to a payment, an a Default under the Declaration has occurred and is continuing, in which case any funds available to make such payment shall be paid first to each Holder of the Capital Securities pro rata

I-10

according to the aggregate liquidation amount of Capital Securities held by the relevant Holder relative to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Capital Securities outstanding, and only after satisfaction of all amounts owed to the Holders of the Capital Securities, to each Holder of Common Securities pro rata according to the aggregate liquidation amount of Common Securities held by the relevant Holder relative to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Common Securities outstanding.

9. Ranking.

The Capital Securities rank pari passu and payment thereon shall be made Pro Rata with the Common Securities except that, where a Default (as defined in the Indenture) occurs and is continuing under the Indenture in respect of the Debentures held by the Institutional Trustee, the rights of Holders of the Common Securities to payment in respect of Distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise are subordinated to the rights to payment of the Holders of the Capital Securities.

10. Listing.

The Regular Trustees shall use their best efforts to cause the Capital Securities to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

11. Acceptance of Securities Guarantee and Indenture.

Each Holder of Capital Securities and Common Securities, by the acceptance thereof, agrees to the provisions of the Capital Securities Guarantee, including the subordination provisions therein and to the provisions of the Indenture.

12. No Preemptive Rights.

The Holders of the Securities shall have no preemptive rights to subscribe for any additional securities.

9

certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Section 1.4. Acts of Holders; Record Dates.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders shall be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

(c) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register.

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

Section 1.5. Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

(1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention:
Institutional Trust Group; provided, however, that such instrument will be considered properly given if submitted in an electronic format, i.e., by facsimile, E-Mail or otherwise, or

(2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company; provided, however, that such instrument will be considered properly given if submitted in an electronic format, i.e., by facsimile, E-Mail or otherwise.

Section 1.6. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken-in reliance upon such waiver.

In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

Section 1.7. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof which is required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

11

Section 1.8. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 1.9. Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 1.10. Separability Clause.

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 1.11. Benefits of Indenture.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 1.12. Governing Law.

This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, and all rights and remedies shall be governed by such laws without regard for the principles of its conflicts of laws.

Section 1.13. Legal Holidays.

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such 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.

Section 1.14. Tax Characterization.

The Company, the Trustee and each Holder of a Security (by acceptance thereof) agrees to treat the Securities as debt instruments for United States federal, state and local

12

income and franchise tax purposes and agrees not to take any contrary position before any taxing authority or on any tax return unless otherwise required by law.

The amount of interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Security is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable 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), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such 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.

Section 2.3. Form of Reverse of Security.

This Security is one of a duly authorized series of securities of the Company (herein sometimes referred to as the "Securities"), specified in the Indenture, all issued or to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of July 23, 2004 (the "Indenture"), duly executed and delivered between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Trustee (the "Trustee"), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. By the terms of the Indenture, the Securities are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in other respects as provided in the Indenture. This series of Securities is limited in aggregate principal amount to $ _________(, plus up to an additional $ __________ aggregate principal amount which may be issued upon exercise of the over-allotment option contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement).

Because of the occurrence and continuation of a Tax Event, in certain circumstances, this Security may become due and payable at [specify redemption prices] % of the principal amount thereof, together with any interest accrued thereon (the "Redemption Price"). The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of such redemption or at such earlier time as the Company determines. The Company shall have the right to redeem this Security at the option of the Company, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part at any time on or after ___, ____ (an "Optional Redemption"), or at any time in certain circumstances upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, at a redemption price equal to (specify redemption prices) % of the principal amount thereof, plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the date of such redemption (the "Optional Redemption Price"). Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph will be made upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days notice, at the

16

Optional Redemption Price. If the Securities are only partially redeemed by the Company pursuant to an Optional Redemption, the Securities will be redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other method utilized by the Trustee; provided that if, at the time of redemption, the Securities are registered as a Global Security, the Depositary shall determine the principal amount of such Securities held by each Security Beneficial Owner to be redeemed in accordance with its procedures.

Any redemption of the Securities of this series, in whole or in part, prior to the stated maturity date is subject to receipt by the Company of prior written approval from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, if then required under applicable capital adequacy guidelines, regulations or policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

[The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 days' nor, more than 60 days' notice by mail, (1) on ________ in any year commencing with the year ____ and ending with the year ____ through operation of the sinking fund for this series at a Redemption Price of ___, (2) at any time [on or after ________, 199__, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at the following Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount): If redeemed [on or before ____, ___, and if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning ___________ of the years indicated, and thereafter at a Redemption Price equal to ___% of the principal amount, together in the case of any such redemption (whether through operation of the sinking fund or otherwise) with accrued interest to the Redemption Date, but interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.]

[Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not, prior to ______, redeem any Securities of this series as contemplated by Clause (2) of the preceding paragraph as a part of, or in anticipation of, any refunding operation by the application, directly or indirectly, of monies borrowed having an interest cost to the Company (calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice) of less than ___% per annum.]

[The sinking fund for this series provides for the redemption on ________ in each year beginning with the year _______ and ending with the year _________ of [not less than] $___________ ("mandatory sinking fund") and not more than $_______ aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series. Securities of this series acquired or redeemed by the Company otherwise than through
[mandatory] sinking fund payments may be credited against subsequent [mandatory] sinking fund payments otherwise required to be made in the [inverse] order in which they become due.]

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

17

In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Securities may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series affected at the time outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the fixed maturity of any Securities of any series, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, without the consent of the Holder of each Security so affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each Security then outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the Securities of such series, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture with respect to such series, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the registered Holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Security and of any Security issued in exchange herefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Security at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed.

The Company shall have the right at any time during the term of the Securities and from time to time to extend the interest payment period of such Securities for up to 20 consecutive quarters (an "Extended Interest Payment Period"), at the end of which period the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid (together with interest thereon at the rate specified for the Securities to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law); provided, that no such Extended Interest Payment Period shall extend beyond the maturity of the Securities; and provided further that during any such Extended Interest Payment Period (a) the Company shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto (other than (i) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any

18

employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants, (ii) 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, or (iii) 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 convened or exchanged), and (b) the Company shall not make any payment of interest on or principal of (or premium, if any, on), or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by the Company which rank pari passu with or junior to the Securities. The foregoing, however, will 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. Before the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company may further extend such Extended Interest Payment Period, provided that such Extended Interest Payment Period together with all such further extensions thereof shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarters. At the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any additional amounts then due, the Company may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Security is transferable by the registered Holder hereof on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City and State of New York accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in relation thereto.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Security, the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem and treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof (whether or not this Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and premium, if any, and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this Security, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released.

Securities of this series so issued are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $25 and any integral multiple thereof.] As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations [herein and] therein set forth.

If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 3.4. Temporary Securities.

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the directors or officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for Securities of that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series.

Section 3.5. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities, or of Securities of a

23

particular series, and of transfers of Securities or of Securities of such series. The Trustee is hereby appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided.

Subject to Section 3.11, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for Securities of that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of like tenor of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.

Subject to Section 3.11, at the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of like tenor of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4, 9.6 or 11.7 not involving any transfer.

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of such series selected for redemption under Section 11.3 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

Section 3.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the

24

same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

Section 3.7. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

Interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a

25

Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee in its sole discretion.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

For the purposes of determining the Holders who are entitled to participate in any distribution on the Securities in respect of which a Regular Record Date or a Special Record Date is not otherwise provided for in this Indenture, or for the purpose of any other action (unless provided for pursuant to Section 3.1), the Company may from time to time fix a date, not more than 90 days prior to the date of the payment of distribution or other action, as the case may be, as a record date for the determination of the identity of the Holders of record for such purposes.

26

Section 3.8. Persons Deemed Owners.

The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.7) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 3.9. Cancellation.

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. Unless otherwise directed by a Company Order, delivery of which must be delivered in a timely manner to prevent such destruction, all cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by it, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a written request of the Company, shall deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company.

Section 3.10. Interest.

(a) Each Security will bear interest at the rate established for the series of Securities of which such Security is a part pursuant to
Section 3.1 (the "Coupon Rate") from and including the original date of issuance of such Security until the principal thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the Coupon Rate, compounded quarterly, payable (subject to the provisions of Article Four) quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (or in such other periodic installments on such other dates established as payment dates for the series of Securities of which such Security is a part pursuant to
Section 3.1) (each, an "Interest Payment Date") commencing on the date established for the series of Securities of which such Security is a part pursuant to Section 3.1, to the Person in whose name such Security or any Predecessor Security is registered, at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest installment, which, in respect of any Securities of which the Institutional Trustee of any Citigroup Trust is the Holder or a Global Security, shall be the close of business on the Business Day next preceding that Interest Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if the Preferred Securities of a Citigroup Trust are no longer in book-entry only form or, except if the Securities originally issued to such Citigroup Trust are held by the Institutional Trustee of such Citigroup Trust, the Securities of any series are not represented by a Global Security, the Company may select a Regular Record Date for such interest

27

installment on such series of Securities which shall be any date more than 14 days but less than 60 days before an Interest Payment Date.

(b) The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and will include the first day but exclude the last day of such period. Except as provided in the following sentence, the amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full quarterly period for which interest is computed, will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in each 30-day month. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Securities of any series is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable 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), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such 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.

(c) If, at any time while the Institutional Trustee of a Citigroup Trust is the Holder of Securities of any series, such Citigroup Trust or such Institutional Trustee is required to pay any taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (other than withholding taxes) imposed by the United States, or any other taxing authority, then, in any case, the Company will pay as additional interest ("Additional Interest") on the Securities of such series, such additional amounts as shall be required so that the net amounts received and retained by such Citigroup Trust and/or such Institutional Trustee, as the case may be, after paying such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges will be equal to the amounts Citigroup Trust and/or such Institutional Trustee, as the case may be, would have received had no such taxes, duties, assessments or other government charges been imposed.

Section 3.11. Form and Payment.

Except as provided in Section 3.12, the Securities of each series shall be issued in fully registered certificated form without interest coupons. Principal and interest on the Securities issued in certificated form will be payable, the transfer of such Securities will be registrable, and such Securities will be exchangeable, for Securities of the same series bearing identical terms and provisions at the office or agency of the Trustee; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Holders of such Securities at such address as shall appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Holder of all Securities of any series is the Institutional Trustee of any Citigroup Trust, the payment of the principal of and interest (including Compounded Interest and Additional Interest, if any) on Securities of such series will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Institutional Trustee.

Section 3.12. Global Securities.

(a) In connection with Dissolution Event with respect to any Citigroup Trust,

28

(i) the Securities in non book-entry certificated form held by such Citigroup Trust, or its Institutional Trustee, will be presented to the Trustee by the Institutional Trustee of such Citigroup Trust in exchange for a Global Security in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Securities of the series issued to such Citigroup Trust, to be registered in the name of the Depositary, or its nominee, and delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary for crediting to the accounts of its participants pursuant to the instructions of the Regular Trustees of the relevant Citigroup Trust. The Company upon any such presentation shall execute a Global Security in such aggregate principal amount and deliver the same to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture. Payments on any Securities issued as a Global Security will be made to the Depositary; and

(ii) if any Preferred Securities of a Citigroup Trust are held in non book-entry certificated form, the Securities in non book-entry certificated form held by such Citigroup Trust, or its Institutional Trustee, may be presented to the Trustee by the Institutional Trustee of such Citigroup Trust and any Preferred Security Certificate which represents Preferred Securities of such Citigroup Trust other than Preferred Securities held by the Depositary or its nominee ("Non Book-Entry Preferred Securities") will be deemed to represent Securities presented to the Trustee by such Institutional Trustee having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Non Book-Entry Preferred Securities until such Preferred Security Certificates are presented to the Security Registrar for transfer or reissuance at which time such Preferred Security Certificates will be cancelled and a Security, registered in the name of the holder of the Preferred Security Certificate or the transferee of the holder of such Preferred Security Certificate, as the case may be, with an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Preferred Security Certificate cancelled, will be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture. On issue of such Securities, Securities with an equivalent aggregate principal amount that were presented by the Institutional Trustee to the Trustee will be deemed to have been cancelled.

(b) A Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(c) If at any time the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for any series of Securities or if at any time the Depositary for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary for such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, the Company will execute, and, subject to this Article III, the Trustee, upon written notice from the Company, will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security in exchange for such Global Security. In addition, the Company may at any time determine that the Securities of any series shall no longer be represented by a Global Security. In such

29

event the Company will execute, and subject to Section 3.5, the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers Certificate evidencing such determination by the Company, will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security for such series in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange of the Global Security for such Securities in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, the Global Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Such Securities in definitive registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary, for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant (to the extent so specified in the case of Section 5.7(e)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be unaffected thereby.

REMEDIES

Section 5.1. Events of Default.

The term "Event of Default" as used in this Indenture with respect to Securities of any series shall mean one of the following described events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(a) failure to pay in full interest accrued upon any Security of that series upon the conclusion of a period consisting of 20 consecutive quarters, commencing with the earliest quarter for which interest (including Deferred Interest) has not been paid in full, and continuance of such failure to pay for a period of 30 days;

Section 5.2. Acceleration of Maturity.

If any one or more of the above-described Events of Default shall happen with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, then, and in each and every such case, during the continuance of any such Event of Default, the Trustee or the Holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding may declare the principal amount of all the Securities of such series then Outstanding, if not then due and payable, to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), and upon any such declaration the same shall become and be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Securities of such series contained to the contrary notwithstanding. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that, if at any time after the principal of all the Securities of such series shall have been so declared to be due and payable, all arrears of interest, if any, upon all the Securities of such series (with interest, to the extent that interest thereon shall be legally enforceable, on any overdue installment of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series) and all amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 6.7 and all other sums payable under this Indenture (except the principal of the Securities of such series which would not be due and payable were it not for such declaration) shall be paid by the Company, and every other Default under this Indenture, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, shall have been made good to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee or of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding, or provision deemed by the Trustee or by such Holders to be adequate therefor shall have been made, then and in every such case the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series, waive the Event of Default by reason of which the principal of the Securities of such series shall have been so declared to be due and payable and may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences; but no such waiver, rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Any declaration by the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 5.2 shall be by written notice to the Company, and any declaration or waiver by the Holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this
Section 5.2 shall be by written notice to the Company and the Trustee.

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

If the Company shall fail for a period of 30 days to pay any installment of interest on the Securities of any series or shall fail to pay the principal of and premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such series when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, or by call for redemption (otherwise than pursuant to a sinking fund) by declaration as authorized by this Indenture, or otherwise, or shall fail for a period of 30 days to make any sinking fund payment as to a series of Securities, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such series then Outstanding the whole amount which then shall have become due and payable on any such Security, with interest on the overdue principal and premium, if any, and (so far as the same may be legally enforceable) on the overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series, and all amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 6.7.

In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, wherever situated, in the manner provided by law. Every recovery of judgment in any such action or other proceeding, subject to the payment to the Trustee of all amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 6.7, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of such series of Securities which shall be the subject of such action or proceeding. All rights of action upon or under any of the Securities or this Indenture may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities and without the production of any thereof at any trial or any proceeding relative thereto.

If a Default, of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, with respect to any series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

Section 5.4. Trustee to File Claims As Attorney-In-Fact.

The Trustee is hereby appointed, and each and every Holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have appointed the Trustee, the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of such Holder, with authority to make or file (whether or not the Company shall be in default in respect of the payment of the principal

36

of, or interest on, any of the Securities), in its own name and as trustee of an express trust or otherwise as it shall deem advisable, in any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or to their respective creditors or property, any and all claims, proofs of claim, proofs of debt, petitions, consents, other papers and documents and amendments of any thereof, as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder and of the Holders of the Securities allowed in any such proceeding and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to execute and deliver any and all other papers and documents and to do and perform any and all other acts and things, as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to enforce in any such proceeding any of the claims of the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder and of any of such Holders in respect of any of the Securities; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor in any such proceeding is hereby authorized, and each and every taker or Holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have authorized any such receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor, to make any such payment or delivery only to or on the order of the Trustee, and to pay to the Trustee any amount due it and any predecessor trustee hereunder under
Section 6.7; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize or empower the Trustee to consent to or accept or adopt, on behalf of any Holder of Securities, any plan of reorganization or readjustment of the Company affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize or empower the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of any Securities in any such proceeding.

Section 5.5. Application of Money Collected.

Any moneys collected by the Trustee with respect to a series of Securities under this Article Five shall be applied in the order following, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys, upon presentation of the several Securities, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:

First: To the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 6.7.

Second: Subject to Article Fourteen, in case the principal of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on the Securities of such series, in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by such Securities, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto.

Third: Subject to Article Fourteen, in case the principal of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Securities of such series for principal and premium, if any, and interest, with interest on the

37

overdue principal and premium, if any, and (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series, and in case such moneys shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Securities of such series, then to the payment of such principal and premium, if any, and interest without preference or priority of principal and premium, if any, over interest, or of interest over principal and premium, if any, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such series over any other Security of such series, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest.

Section 5.6. Control by Holders; Waiver of Past Default.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee hereunder, or of exercising any trust or power hereby conferred upon the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or would be unduly prejudicial to Holders not joining in such direction or would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of the Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such series of Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past default hereunder and its consequences except a default not theretofore cured in the payment of interest or any premium on or the principal of the Securities of such series or in respect of any covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of each series affected thereby; provided, however, that if the Securities of such series are held by a Citigroup Trust or a trustee of such trust, such waiver or modification to such waiver shall not be effective until the holders of Trust Securities representing a majority in liquidation preference of Trust Securities of the applicable Citigroup Trust shall have consented to such waiver or modification to such waiver; provided further, that if the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Securities is required, such waiver shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities of the applicable Citigroup Trust shall have consented to such waiver. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 5.6, said default shall for all purposes of the Securities of such series and this Indenture cease to exist, and any Default or Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.

Section 5.7. Limitation on Suits; Default.

No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity for the execution of any trust hereunder or

38

for the appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy hereunder, in each case with respect to a Default with respect to such series of Securities, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of the happening of one or more of the Defaults herein specified with respect to such series of Securities, and unless also the Holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding shall have requested the Trustee in writing to take action in respect of the matter complained of, and unless also there shall have been offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after receipt of such notification, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; and such notification, request and offer of indemnity are hereby declared in every such case to be conditions precedent to any such action, suit or proceeding by any Holder of any Security of such series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of the Holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by his or their action to enforce any right hereunder, except in the manner herein provided, and that every action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Indenture or in the Securities of such series shall affect or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series to the respective Holders of such Securities at the respective due dates in such Securities stated, or affect or impair the right, which is also absolute and unconditional, of such Holders to institute suit to enforce the payment thereof.

The following events shall be "Defaults" with respect to any series of Securities under this Indenture:

(a) an Event of Default with respect to such series specified in
Section 5.1; or

(b) the failure of the Company to pay any installment of interest on any Security of such series, when and as the same shall become payable, which failure shall have continued unremedied for a period of 30 days, it being understood that the occurrence of an Extended Interest Payment Period in accordance with the terms of such Security will not constitute such a default; or

(c) the failure of the Company to pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Security of such series, when and as the same shall become payable, whether at maturity as therein expressed, by call for redemption (otherwise than pursuant to a sinking fund), by declaration as authorized by this Indenture or otherwise, whether or not permitted by Article Fourteen; or

39

(d) the failure of the Company to pay a sinking fund installment, if any, when and as the same shall become payable by the terms of a Security of such series, which failure shall have continued unremedied for a period of 30 days, whether or not permitted by Article Fourteen; or

(e) the failure of the Company, subject to the provisions of
Section 8.1, to observe and perform any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company contained in this Indenture (including any indenture supplemental hereto) (other than a covenant or agreement which has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a series of Securities other than that series), which failure shall not have been remedied for a period of 90 days after written notice shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee or shall have been given to the Company and the Trustee by Holders of 25% or more in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding, specifying such failure and requiring the Company to remedy the same; or

(f) in the event Securities of a series are issued and sold to a Citigroup Trust or a trustee of such trust in connection with the issuance of Trust Securities by such Citigroup Trust, such Citigroup Trust shall have voluntarily or involuntarily dissolved, wound-up its business or otherwise terminated its existence except in connection with (i) the distribution of Securities to holders of Trust Securities in liquidation or redemption of their interests in such Citigroup Trust upon a Special Event with respect to such Citigroup Trust, (ii) the redemption of all of the outstanding Trust Securities of such Citigroup Trust or (iii) certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations, each as permitted by the Declaration of such Citigroup Trust; or

(g) any other Default provided with respect to Securities of that series.

Section 5.8. Costs and Attorneys' Fees in Legal Proceedings.

All parties to this Indenture and the Holders of the Securities agree that the court may in its discretion require, in any action, suit or proceeding for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any action, suit or proceeding against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding of an undertaking to pay the costs of such action, suit or proceeding, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 5.8 shall not apply to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee, to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any one or more Holders of Securities holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any Holder of Securities for the enforcement of the payment of

40

the principal of or premium, if any, or the interest on, any of the Securities, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Securities.

Section 5.9. Remedies Cumulative.

Except as provided in the last sentence of Section 3.6, no remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities of any series is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of the Securities of any series to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this Article Five to the Trustee and to the Holders, respectively, may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. In case the Trustee or any Holder of Securities shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and the proceedings for the enforcement thereof shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of waiver or for any other reason or shall have been adjudicated adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall severally and respectively be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and thereafter all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceedings had been instituted, except as to any matters so waived or adjudicated.

Section 5.10. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no law had been enacted.

ARTICLE VI

THE TRUSTEE

Section 6.1. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

(a) Except during the continuance of a Default;

(1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

41

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(b) In case a Default with respect to any series of Securities, of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that

(1) this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (a) of this Section;

(2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(4) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to it, against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conductor affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

Section 6.2. Notice of Defaults.

Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of

42

such series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such Default hereunder actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided, further, that in the case of any Default of the character specified in
Section 5.7(e) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof.

(d) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

(e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to it, against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

(f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee

43

shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; and

(i) the permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties.

Section 6.4. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

Section 6.5. May Hold Securities.

The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 6.8 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

Section 6.6. Money Held in Trust.

Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company.

Section 6.7. Compensation and Reimbursement.

The Company agrees

(1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall

44

not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents, nominees, custodians and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and

(3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trust hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Securities. The obligations of the Company under this Section shall survive the removal or resignation of the Trustee and the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When the Trustee incurs any expenses or renders any services after the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(b) or
Section 5.1(c), such expenses and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the United States Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code) or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors.

Section 6.8. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

The Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 during the period of time provided for therein.

Section 6.9. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to

45

supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervision or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.

If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company.

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.9 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

(3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to
Section 5.8, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

46

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of
Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

Section 6.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or

Section 6.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of

49

an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

The election of the Company to redeem any Securities redeemable at the election of the Company shall be evidenced by a Board

61

Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 40 days (unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee), but not more than 60 days, prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company, notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction.

(b) If a partial redemption of any series of Securities would result in the delisting of the Preferred Securities of the Citigroup Trust that purchased such Securities from any national securities exchange or other organization on which the Preferred Securities of such Citigroup Trust are then listed, the Company shall not be permitted to effect such partial redemption and may only redeem such series of Securities in whole.

Section 11.3. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed.

If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series; provided, that, if at the time of redemption such Securities are registered as a Global Security, the Depositary shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of such Securities held by each Security Beneficial Owner to be redeemed.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 11.4. Notice of Redemption.

Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(1) the Redemption Date,

62

(2) the Redemption Price,

(3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities of such series to be redeemed,

(4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

(5) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, and

(6) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

Section 11.5. Deposit of Redemption Price.

Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

Section 11.6. Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.

The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of such redemption or such earlier time as the Company determines, provided

63

that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such Redemption Price is to be paid.

Section 11.7. Securities Redeemed in Part.

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment for Securities of that series (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of like tenor and of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

Section 11.8. Tax Event Redemption.

If a Tax Event with respect to any Citigroup Trust has occurred and is continuing and:

(a) the Company has received a Redemption Tax Opinion with respect to such Citigroup Trust; or

(b) after receiving a Tax Event Opinion, the Regular Trustees of such Citigroup Trust shall have been informed by tax counsel rendering the Tax Event Opinion that a No Recognition Opinion cannot be delivered to such Citigroup Trust,

then, notwithstanding Section 11.2(a) but subject to Section 11.2(b) and Section 11.1, the Company shall have the right upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days notice to the Holders of Securities of the series issued to such Citigroup Trust, or to its Institutional Trustee, to redeem such Securities, in whole or in part, for cash within 90 days following the occurrence of such Tax Event at the Redemption Price, provided that if at the time there is available to the Company or such Citigroup Trust the opportunity to eliminate, within such 90-day period, the Tax Event by taking some ministerial action ("Ministerial Action"), such as filing a form or making an election, or pursuing some other similar reasonable measure which has no adverse effect on the Company, the Trust or the holders of the Trust Securities of such Citigroup Trust, the Company or such Citigroup Trust shall pursue such Ministerial Action in lieu of redemption, and, provided further that the Company shall have no right to redeem such Securities while the Company or such Citigroup Trust is pursuing any Ministerial Action pursuant to its obligations under the Declaration of such Citigroup Trust.

ARTICLE XII

SINKING FUNDS

Section 12.1. Applicability of Article.

The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for the Securities of such series.

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "optional sinking fund payment." If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

Section 12.2. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

Unless the form or terms of any series of Securities shall provide otherwise, the Company (1) may deliver to the Trustee Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such Securities; provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 12.3. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.2 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 45 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.4. The Company shall deposit the amount of cash, if any, required for such

65

sinking fund payment with the Trustee in the manner provided in Section 11.5. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.6 and 11.7.

ARTICLE XIII

EXTENSION OF INTEREST PAYMENT PERIOD

Section 13.1. Extension of Interest Payment Period.

The Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities of any series, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period of all Securities of such series for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters (the "Extended Interest Payment Period"), during which Extended Interest Payment Period no interest shall be due and payable on Securities of such series; provided that no Extended Interest Payment Period may extend beyond the Maturity of such Securities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest, the payment of which has been deferred because of the extension of the interest payment period pursuant to this Section 13.1, will bear interest thereon at the Coupon Rate compounded quarterly for each quarter of the Extended Interest Payment Period ("Compounded Interest"). At the end of any Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to any series of Securities, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on such Securities, including any Additional Interest and Compounded Interest (together, "Deferred Interest") that shall be payable to the Holders of Securities of such Series in whose names such Securities are registered in the Security Register on the first record date after the end of such Extended Interest Payment Period. Before the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company may further extend such period; provided that such period, together with all such further extensions thereof, shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarters; and provided further that no prepayment of interest during an Extended Interest Payment Period shall allow the Company to extend such Extended Interest Payment Period beyond 20 consecutive quarters. Upon the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to any series of Securities and upon the payment of all Deferred Interest then due, the Company may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to such series of Securities, subject to the foregoing requirements. No interest on a series of Securities shall be due and payable during an Extended Interest Payment Period with respect thereto, except at the end thereof, provided the Company may prepay at any time all or any portion of the interest accrued during any Extended Interest Payment Period.

Section 13.2. Notice of Extension.

(a) If the Institutional Trustee of a Citigroup Trust is the only Holder of Securities of a series at the time the Company selects an Extended Interest Payment Period with respect thereto, the Company shall give written notice to the Regular Trustees and the Institutional Trustee of such Citigroup Trust and to the Trustee of its selection of such Extended Interest Payment Period one Business Day before the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Trust Securities issued by such Citigroup Trust would be payable, if not for such Extended Interest Payment Period,

66

or (ii) the date such Citigroup Trust is required to give notice of the record date, or the date such Distributions are payable, to the New York Stock Exchange or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to holders of the Preferred Securities issued by such Citigroup Trust, but in any event at least one Business Day before such record date.

(b) If the Institutional Trustee of a Citigroup Trust is not the only Holder of Securities of a series at the time the Company selects an Extended Interest Payment Period with respect thereto, the Company shall give written notice to the Holders of Securities of such series and the Trustee of its selection of such Extended Interest Payment Period 10 Business Days before the earlier of (i) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, or (ii) the date the Company is required to give notice of the record or payment date of such interest payment to the New York Stock Exchange or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to Holders of Securities of such series.

(c) The quarter in which any notice is given pursuant to paragraphs (a) or
(b) of this Section 13.2 shall be counted as one of the 20 quarters permitted in the maximum Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to any series of Securities permitted under Section 1.3.

Section 13.3. Limitation of Transactions.

If with respect to any series of Securities (i) the Company shall exercise its right to defer payments of interest thereon as provided in Section 13.1 or
(ii) there shall have occurred any Default, then (a) the Company shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto (other than
(i) repurchases, 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, (ii) 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, or (iii) 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), and (b) the Company shall not make any payment of interest on, principal of or premium, if any, on, or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities issued by the Company which rank pari passu with or junior to the Securities of such series (including the Securities of any other series), provided, however, the Company may declare and pay a stock dividend where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid.

67

ARTICLE XIV

SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

Section 14.1. Agreement to Subordinate.

The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities issued hereunder by such Holder's acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Securities shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article Fourteen; and each Holder of a Security, whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions.

The payment by the Company of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all Securities issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred.

No provision of this Article Fourteen shall prevent the occurrence of any Default hereunder.

Section 14.2. Default on Senior Indebtedness.

In the event and during the continuation of any default by the Company in the payment of principal, premium, interest or any other payment due on any Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, or in the event that the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, has been accelerated because of a default, then, in either case, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal (including redemption payments) of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities or to acquire any of the Securities (except sinking fund payments made in Securities acquired by the Company prior to such default):

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment shall be received by the Trustee, by any Holder or by any Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, money for any such payment is segregated and held in trust) when such payment is prohibited by the preceding paragraph of this Section 14.2, before all Senior Indebtedness of the Company is paid in full, or provision is made for such payment in money in accordance with its terms, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company or their respective representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, ratably according to the aggregate amount remaining unpaid on account of the principal, premium, interest or any other payment due on the Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full in money in accordance with its terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to

68

or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, but only to the extent that the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (or their representative or representatives or a trustee) notify the Trustee in writing within 90 days of such payment of the amounts then due and owing on the Senior Indebtedness and only the amounts specified in such notice to the Trustee shall be paid to the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

Section 14.3. Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy.

Upon any payment by the Company or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all amounts due upon all Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be paid in full, or payment thereof provided for in money in accordance with its terms, before any payment is made by the Company on account of the principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities; and upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled to receive, except for the provisions of this Article Fourteen, shall be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holders of the Securities or by the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, as calculated by the Company) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full, in money or money's worth, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holders of Securities or to the Trustee.

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee, by any Holder or by any Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, money for any such payment is segregated and held in trust) before all Senior Indebtedness of the Company is paid in full, or provision is made for such payment in money in accordance with its terms, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, ratably according to the aggregate amount remaining unpaid on account of the principal, premium, interest or any other payment due on the Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full in money in accordance with its terms,

69

after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

For purposes of this Article Fourteen, the words "cash, property or securities" shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article Fourteen with respect to the Securities to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, that may at the time be outstanding, provided that
(i) such Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness are not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article VIII shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 14.3 if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article VIII. Nothing in Section 14.2 or in this Section 14.3 shall apply to-claims of, or payments to the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.7.

Section 14.4. Subrogation.

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, the rights of the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company, as the case may be, applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article Fourteen, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article Fourteen to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and the holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of such Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the provisions of this Article Fourteen are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of such Senior Indebtedness on the other hand.

Nothing contained in this Article Fourteen or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is

70

intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company, as the case may be, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under the Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article Fourteen of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company, as the case may be, received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article Fourteen, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidation trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purposes of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Fourteen.

Section 14.5. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

Each Holder of Securities by such Holder's acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article Fourteen and appoints the Trustee such Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

Section 14.6. Notice by the Company.

The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article Fourteen. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article Fourteen or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article Fourteen, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or from any trustee therefor; and before the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of
Section 6.1 shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section 14.6 at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority

71

to receive such money and to apply the same to the purposes for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within three Business Days prior to such date.

The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be (or a trustee on behalf of such holder), to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of any such holder or holders. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of such Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article Fourteen, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article Fourteen, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

Section 14.7. Rights of the Trustee; Holders of Senior Indebtedness.

The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article Fourteen in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article Fourteen, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of such Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders of Securities, the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article Fourteen or otherwise.

Section 14.8. Subordination May Not Be Impaired.

No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company, as the case may be, or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company, as the case may be, with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with.

72

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article Fourteen or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, such Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner such Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing such Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of such Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company, as the case may be, and any other Person.

Section 14.9. Trustee's Compensation Not Prejudiced.

Nothing in this Article Fourteen shall apply to amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 of this Indenture.

ARTICLE XV

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 15.1. Acknowledgement of Rights.

The Company acknowledges that, with respect to any Securities held by a Citigroup Trust or a trustee of such Trust, if the Institutional Trustee of such Citigroup Trust fails to enforce its rights under this Indenture as the Holder of the series of Securities held as the assets of such Citigroup Trust, any holder of Preferred Securities of such Citigroup Trust may institute legal proceedings directly against the Company to enforce such Institutional Trustee's rights under this Indenture without first instituting any legal proceedings against such Institutional Trustee or any other person or entity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Default has occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of the Company to pay interest or principal on the applicable series of Securities on the date such interest or principal is otherwise payable (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), the Company acknowledges that a holder of Trust Securities issued by the Citigroup Trust which is, or the Institutional Trustee of which is, the Holder of such Securities may directly institute a proceeding for enforcement of payment to such holder of the principal of or interest on the applicable series of Securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Trust Securities of such holder (a "Direct Action") on or after the respective due date specified of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the applicable series of Securities. Notwithstanding any payments made to such holder of Trust Securities by the Company in connection with a Direct Action, the Company shall remain obligated to pay the principal of or interest on the series of Securities held by a

73

Citigroup Trust or the Institutional Trustee of a Citigroup Trust, and the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of such Trust Securities to the extent of any payments made by the Company to such holder in any Direct Action.

* * * *

This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1:

(i) The Capital Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties.

(ii) Any direction or act of the Guarantor contemplated by this Capital Securities Guarantee shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers' Certificate.

(iii) Whenever, in the administration of this Capital Securities Guarantee, the Capital Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be


proved or established before taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Capital Guarantee Trustee (unless other evidence is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and conclusively rely upon an Officers' Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly delivered by the Guarantor.

(iv) The Capital Guarantee Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording, filing or registration of any instrument (or any rerecording, refiling or registration thereof).

(v) The Capital Guarantee Trustee may consult with counsel, and the written advice or opinion of such counsel with respect to legal matters shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion. Such counsel may be counsel to the Guarantor or any of its Affiliates and may include any of its employees. The Capital Guarantee Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Capital Securities Guarantee from any court of competent jurisdiction.

(vi) The Capital Guarantee Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Capital Securities Guarantee at the request or direction of any Holder, unless such Holder shall have provided to the Capital Guarantee Trustee such security and indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to the Capital Guarantee Trustee, against the costs, expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses and the expenses of the Capital Guarantee Trustee's agents, nominees or custodians) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in complying with such request or direction, including such reasonable advances as may be requested by the Capital Guarantee Trustee; provided that, nothing contained in this Section 3.2(a)(vi) shall be taken to relieve the Capital Guarantee Trustee, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, of its obligation to exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Capital Securities Guarantee.

(vii) The Capital Guarantee Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Capital Guarantee Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit.

(ix) Any action taken by the Capital Guarantee Trustee or its agents hereunder shall bind the Holders of the Capital Securities, and the signature of the Capital Guarantee Trustee or its agents alone shall be sufficient and effective to perform any such action. No third party shall be required to inquire as to the authority of the Capital Guarantee Trustee to so act or as to its compliance with any of the terms and provisions of this Capital Securities Guarantee, both of which shall be conclusively evidenced by the Capital Guarantee Trustee's or its agent's taking such action.

(x) Whenever in the administration of this Capital Securities Guarantee the Capital Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder, the Capital Guarantee Trustee (i) may request instructions from the Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Capital Securities, (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such instructions are received, and
(iii) shall be protected in conclusively relying on or acting in accordance with such instructions.

Citigroup Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am General Counsel-Capital Markets of Citigroup Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). I refer to the filing by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") relating to (i) debt securities of the Company, which may be senior debt securities (the "Senior Securities") or subordinated debt securities (the "Subordinated Securities" and together with the Senior Securities, the "Debt Securities"), (ii) junior subordinated debt securities (the "Junior Subordinated Debt Securities") issued in connection with the offering by certain affiliated business trusts of the Company of capital securities (the "Capital Securities"), certain payments in respect of which will be guaranteed by the Company (the "Guarantees"), (iii) warrants (the "Common Stock Warrants") representing the right to receive, upon exercise, a number of shares of Common Stock (as defined below), (iv) warrants (the "Index Warrants") representing the right to receive or the obligation to sell, upon exercise, an amount in cash that will be determined by reference to prices, yields, levels or other specified objective measures, (v) shares of preferred stock of the Company (the "Preferred Stock"), (vi) depositary shares representing entitlement to all rights and preferences of a share of Preferred Stock of a specified series (the "Depositary Shares"), (vii) stock purchase contracts (the "Stock Purchase Contracts") to purchase Common Stock (as defined below), Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares, (viii) stock purchase units (the "Stock Purchase Units"), each representing ownership of a Stock Purchase Contract and any of Debt Securities, debt obligations of third parties, including U.S. Treasury securities, or Capital Securities, securing a holder's obligation to purchase or sell Common Stock (as defined below), Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares under a Stock Purchase Contract and (ix) shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The Debt Securities, the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities, the Common Stock Warrants, the Index Warrants, the Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares, the Stock Purchase Contracts, the Stock Purchase Units and the Common Stock are referred to herein collectively as the "Offered Securities." The Offered Securities being registered under the Registration Statement will have an aggregate initial offering price of up to $30 billion or the equivalent thereof in foreign currencies and will be offered on a continued or delayed basis pursuant to the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").

Unless otherwise provided in any prospectus supplement forming a part of the Registration Statement relating to a particular series of Debt Securities, the Senior Securities will be issued under an Indenture dated as of March 15, 1987, as amended (the


"Senior Indenture"), between the Company and The Bank of New York (the "Senior Trustee"), as Senior Trustee, and the Subordinated Securities will be issued under an Indenture dated as of April 12, 2001 (the "Subordinated Indenture"; together with the Senior Indenture, the "Indentures"; and each, individually, an "Indenture"), between the Company and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A., as Subordinated Trustee (each of the Senior Trustee and the Subordinated Trustee, a "Trustee"). The Common Stock Warrants will be issued under one or more warrant agreements (each, a "Common Stock Warrant Agreement"), each to be entered into between the Company and one or more institutions as identified in the applicable Common Stock Warrant Agreement. The Index Warrants will be issued under one or more warrant agreements (each, an "Index Warrant Agreement"), each to be entered into between the Company and one or more institutions as identified in the applicable Index Warrant Agreement.

I, or attorneys under my supervision, have examined and are familiar with originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such corporate records of the Company, certificates or documents as I have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below. In such examination, I (or such persons) have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me (or such persons) as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me (or such persons) as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and assuming that (i) the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments) will have become effective and comply with all applicable laws at the time the Offered Securities are offered or issued as contemplated by the Registration Statement; (ii) a Prospectus Supplement, Pricing Supplement and/or term sheet will have been prepared and filed with the Commission describing the Offered Securities offered thereby and will comply with all applicable laws;
(iii) all Offered Securities will be issued and sold in compliance with applicable federal and state laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the appropriate Prospectus Supplement, Pricing Supplement and/or term sheet; (iv) a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement and any other necessary agreement with respect to any Offered Securities offered or issued will have been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the parties thereto; (v) the Offered Securities will be sold and delivered at the price and in accordance with the terms of such agreement and as set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement(s), Pricing Supplement(s) or term sheet(s) referred to therein; and (vi) the Company will authorize the offering and issuance of the Offered Securities and the terms and conditions thereof and will take any other appropriate additional corporate action, I am of the opinion that:

1. The Company is a duly incorporated and existing corporation under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. With respect to Debt Securities to be issued under either the Senior Indenture or Subordinated Indenture, assuming the due authorization, execution, and delivery of the

2

applicable Indenture by the Trustee, and due execution, authentication and delivery of the Debt Securities in accordance with the terms of the applicable Indenture, when such Debt Securities have been issued and sold in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement, such Debt Securities (including any Debt Securities issued as part of any Stock Purchase Units) will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and will be entitled to the benefits of the applicable Indenture.

3. With respect to the Common Stock Warrants, assuming the (i) due authorization, execution and delivery of the applicable Common Stock Warrant Agreement by one or more institutions as identified in such Common Stock Warrant Agreement and (ii) due execution, countersignature and delivery of the Common Stock Warrants, when such Common Stock Warrants have been issued and sold, such Common Stock Warrants will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company.

4. With respect to the Index Warrants, assuming the (i) due authorization, execution and delivery of the applicable Index Warrant Agreement by one or more institutions as identified in such Index Warrant Agreement and
(ii) due execution, countersignature and delivery of the Index Warrants, when such Index Warrants have been issued and sold, such Index Warrants will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company.

5. With respect to the Stock Purchase Contracts, assuming the due execution, countersignature and delivery of the Stock Purchase Contracts, when such Stock Purchase Contracts have been issued and sold, such Stock Purchase Contracts will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company.

6. With respect to the Stock Purchase Units, assuming the due execution, countersignature and delivery of the Stock Purchase Units, when such Stock Purchase Units have been issued and sold, such Stock Purchase Units will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company.

7. Except with respect to Common Stock issuable upon (i) the conversion of Debt Securities or (ii) the settlement of the Stock Purchase Contracts or the Stock Purchase Units, when the Common Stock has been issued and sold, in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, assuming the issuance of the Common Stock has been authorized by all necessary corporate action and that the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock are duly executed and delivered.

8. With respect to Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Debt Securities that are by their terms convertible, such Common Stock will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, assuming the issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion of such Debt Securities has been authorized by all necessary corporate action, that such Debt Securities have been converted in accordance with their terms and that the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock are duly executed and delivered.

3

9. With respect to Common Stock issuable upon settlement of Stock Purchase Contracts or Stock Purchase Units, such Common Stock will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, assuming the issuance of the Common Stock upon settlement of such Stock Purchase Contracts or Stock Purchase Units has been authorized by all necessary corporate action, that such Stock Purchase Contracts or Stock Purchase Units have been settled in accordance with their terms and that the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock are duly executed and delivered.

Insofar as my opinion relates to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any agreement or obligation of the Company, it is subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

My opinion is limited to matters governed by the Federal laws of the United States of America, the laws of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (including the applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution and the reported judicial decisions interpreting the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and such applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution). I am not admitted to the practice of law in the State of Delaware.

I consent to the use of this opinion in the Registration Statement and to the reference to my name in the Prospectus constituting a part of such Registration Statement under the heading "Legal Matters". In giving such consent, I do not thereby admit that I come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act, or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

Very truly yours,
