CITIGROUP INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of $                on May 25, 2034 (the “Maturity Date”) and to pay interest thereon from and including May 25, 2023 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for. The Company shall pay interest (i) from May 25, 2023 to, but excluding, May 25, 2033 (the “Fixed Rate Period”) at a fixed rate of 6.174% per annum semi-annually, on May 25th and November 25th of each year (each such date, a “Fixed Rate Period Interest Payment Date”), commencing November 25, 2023 and (ii) from, and including, May 25, 2033 (the “Floating Rate Period”), at an annual rate equal to Compounded SOFR (and defined on the reverse hereof) plus 2.661% quarterly, on the second business day following each Interest Period End Date (each such business day, a “Floating Rate Period Interest

Payment Date” and together with any Fixed Rate Period Payment Date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing August 29, 2033, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment and provided that the Interest Payment Date with respect to the final Interest Period will be a redemption date or the Maturity Date. An Interest Period End Date is the 25th of each February, May, August, and November, beginning on August 25, 2033 and ending on a redemption date or the Maturity Date. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Subordinated Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest, which shall be the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the holder on such Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Subordinated Note is registered at the close of business on a subsequent Record Date, such subsequent Record Date to be not less than five days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof shall be given to holders of Subordinated Notes of this series not less than fifteen days prior to such subsequent Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Subordinated Notes of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

During the Fixed Rate Period, interest hereon will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months, and an Interest Period shall be the period from and including an Interest Payment Date (or May 25, 2023 in the case of the first Interest Period) to and including the day immediately preceding the next Interest Payment Date. During the Fixed Rate Period, if an Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the next succeeding Business Day, and no further interest will accrue in respect of such postponement. For these purposes, “Business Day” means any day on which commercial banks settle payments and are open for general business in The City of New York.

During the Floating Rate Period, interest hereon will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in an interest period and a 360-day year, and an Interest Period shall be the period from and including an Interest Period End Date (or May 25, 2033 in the case of the first Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period) to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Period End Date; provided that the Interest Period following an election by the Company to redeem the Subordinated Notes and the final Interest Period will be the period from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Period End Date to, but excluding, the redemption date or the Maturity Date; and provided further that SOFR for each calendar day from, and including, the Rate Cut-Off Date (as defined on the reverse hereof) to, but excluding, the redemption date or the Maturity Date will equal SOFR in respect of the Rate Cut-Off Date. In the event that any Interest Period End Date (other than a redemption date or the Maturity Date) is not a Business Day, then such date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, unless that day falls in the next calendar month, in which case the interest period end date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. For these purposes, “Business Day” means any day on which commercial banks settle payments and are open for general business in The City of New York and a U.S. Government Securities Business Day (as defined on the reverse hereof)

Dollar amounts resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward. In the event that the Maturity Date or a redemption date is not a Business Day, then such date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no further interest will accrue with respect to such postponement. No interest will accrue on any amounts payable for the period from and after the due date for payment of such principal or interest.

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Subordinated Note will be made at the office or agency of the paying agent maintained for that purpose in The City of New York.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Subordinated Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee or by an authenticating agent on behalf of the Trustee by manual signature, this Subordinated Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed under its corporate seal.

This Subordinated Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company (the “Subordinated Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under the subordinated debt indenture, dated as of April 12, 2001 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A. 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 Subordinated Notes and of the terms upon which the Subordinated Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Subordinated Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal to $3,200,000,000.

During the Floating Rate Period, this Subordinated Note will bear interest for each Interest Period at a rate determined by Citibank, N.A., London Branch, acting as Calculation Agent. The interest rate on this Subordinated Note for a particular Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period will be a per annum rate equal to Compounded SOFR (as defined below) plus 2.661%. Interest during the Floating Rate Period will be calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the Subordinated Notes by the product of (i) Compounded SOFR plus 2.661% multiplied by (ii) the quotient of actual number of calendar days in such interest period divided by 360; provided that in no event will the interest payable on the Subordinated Notes be less than zero. Promptly upon determination, the Calculation Agent will inform the Trustee and the Company of the interest rate for the next Interest Period. Absent manifest error, the determination of the interest rate by the Calculation Agent shall be binding and conclusive on the holders of Subordinated Notes, the Trustee and the Company.

For the purposes of calculating interest with respect to any Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period:

“Compounded SOFR” means a rate of return of a daily compounded interest investment calculated in accordance with the formula below, with the resulting percentage being rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point (0.00000005 being rounded upwards):

where

“do”, for any Interest Period, is the number of U.S. Government Securities Business Days in the relevant Interest Period.

“i” is a series of whole numbers from one to do, each representing the relevant U.S. Government Securities Business Days in chronological order from, and including, the first U.S. Government Securities Business Day in the relevant Interest Period.

“SOFRi”, for any day “i” in the relevant Interest Period, is a reference rate equal to SOFR in respect of that day.

“ni”, for any day “i” in the relevant Interest Period, is the number of calendar days from, and including, such U.S. Government Securities Business Day “i” to, but excluding, the following U.S. Government Securities Business Day.

“d” is the number of calendar days in the relevant Interest Period.

“U.S. Government Securities Business Day” means any day except for a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in U.S. government securities.

“SOFR” means, with respect to any day, the rate determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following provisions:

(1) the Secured Overnight Financing Rate for trades made on such day that appears at approximately 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the NY Federal Reserve’s Website on the U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately following such day (“SOFR Determination Time”); or

(2) if the rate specified in (1) above does not so appear, unless a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred as described in (3) below, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate published on the NY Federal Reserve’s Website for the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which the Secured Overnight Financing Rate was published on the NY Federal Reserve’s Website; or

(3) if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the relevant interest period end date, the Calculation Agent will use the Benchmark Replacement to determine the rate and for all other purposes relating to the Subordinated Notes.

In connection with the Compounded SOFR definition above, the following definitions apply:

“Benchmark” means, initially, Compounded SOFR; provided that if the Company (or one of its affiliates) determines that on or prior to the Reference Time that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to Compounded SOFR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement.

“Benchmark Replacement” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by Citigroup (or one of its affiliates) as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:

(1) the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or

(2) the sum of: (a) the ISDA Fallback Rate and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or

(3) the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by the Company (or one of its affiliates) as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark giving due consideration to any industry-accepted rate of interest as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes at such time and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company (or one of its affiliates) as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:

(2) if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA Fallback Rate, then the ISDA Fallback Adjustment;

(3) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Company (or one of its affiliates) giving due consideration to any industry-accepted spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of the then-current Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes at such time.

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes that the Company (or one of its affiliates) decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption of such Benchmark Replacement in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Company (or such affiliate) decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Company (or such affiliate) determines that no market practice for use of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner as the Company (or such affiliate) determines is reasonably necessary).

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide the Benchmark; or

(2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination.

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Benchmark announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark;

(2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Benchmark, the central bank for the currency of the Benchmark, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for the Benchmark, which states that the administrator of the Benchmark has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark; or

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Benchmark announcing that the Benchmark is no longer representative.

“Business Day” means any weekday that is not a legal holiday in New York City and is not a day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law or regulation to be closed and is a U.S. Government Securities Business Day.

“ISDA” means the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. or any successor thereto.

“ISDA Fallback Rate” means the rate that would apply for derivatives transactions referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon the occurrence of an index cessation date with respect to the Benchmark for the applicable tenor excluding the applicable ISDA Fallback Adjustment.

“NY Federal Reserve” means the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

“NY Federal Reserve’s Website” means the website of the NY Federal Reserve, currently at http://www.newyorkfed.org, or any successor website of the NY Federal Reserve or the website of any successor administrator of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate.

“Rate Cut-Off Date” means the second U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to a redemption date or the Maturity Date.

“Reference Time” with respect to any determination of the Benchmark means (1) if the Benchmark is Compounded SOFR, the SOFR Determination Time and (2) if the Benchmark is not Compounded SOFR, the time determined by Citigroup (or one of its affiliates) in accordance with the Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Federal Reserve Board and/or the NY Federal Reserve, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the NY Federal Reserve or any successor thereto.

This Subordinated Note is a Global Security registered in the name of a nominee of the Depository. This Subordinated Note is exchangeable for Subordinated Notes registered in the name of a person other than the Depository or its nominee only in the limited circumstances hereinafter described. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for definitive Subordinated Notes in certificated form, this Subordinated Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository.

The Subordinated Notes represented by this Global Security are exchangeable for definitive Subordinated Notes in certificated form of like tenor as such Subordinated Notes in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof only if (i) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for the Notes and the Company is unable to appoint a successor depository or (ii) the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (iii) the Company in its sole discretion decides to allow the Subordinated Notes to be exchanged for definitive Subordinated Notes in registered form. Any Subordinated Notes that are exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence are exchangeable for certificated Subordinated Notes issuable in authorized denominations and registered in such names as the Depository shall direct. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of definitive Subordinated Notes in certificated form is registrable in the register maintained by the Company in The City of New York for such purpose, upon surrender of the definitive Subordinated Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the registrar, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the registrar duly executed by, the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new

Subordinated Notes of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. Subject to the foregoing, this Subordinated Note is not exchangeable, except for a Global Security or Global Securities of this issue of the same principal amount to be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee.

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

The Company will pay additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) to the beneficial owner of any Subordinated Note that is a non-United States person in order to ensure that every net payment on such Subordinated Note will not be less, due to payment of U.S. withholding tax, than the amount then due and payable. For this purpose, a “net payment” on a Subordinated Note means a payment by the Company or a paying agent, including payment of principal and interest, after deduction for any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge of the United States. These Additional Amounts will constitute additional interest on the Subordinated Note.

The Company will not be required to pay Additional Amounts, however, in any of the circumstances described in items (1) through (13) below.

(1) Additional Amounts will not be payable if a payment on a Subordinated Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner:

(a) having a relationship with the United States as a citizen, resident or otherwise;

(b) having had such a relationship in the past; or

(c) being considered as having had such a relationship.

(2) Additional Amounts will not be payable if a payment on a Subordinated Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner:

(a) being treated as present in or engaged in a trade or business in the United States;

(b) being treated as having been present in or engaged in a trade or business in the United States in the past; or

(c) having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States.

(3) Additional Amounts will not be payable if a payment on a Subordinated Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld in whole or in part by reason of the beneficial owner being or having been any of the following (as such terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended):

(a) personal holding company;

(b) foreign private foundation or other foreign tax-exempt organization;

(c) passive foreign investment company;

(d) controlled foreign corporation; or

(e) corporation which has accumulated earnings to avoid United States federal income tax.

(4) Additional Amounts will not be payable if a payment on a Subordinated Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner owning or having owned, actually or constructively, 10 percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company entitled to vote or by reason of the beneficial owner being a bank that has invested in a Subordinated Note as an extension of credit in the ordinary course of its trade or business.

For purposes of items (1) through (4) above, “beneficial owner” means a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of the holder if the holder is an estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company, corporation or other entity, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder.

(5) Additional Amounts will not be payable to any beneficial owner of a Subordinated Note that is a:

(a) fiduciary;

(b) partnership;

(c) limited liability company; or

(d) other fiscally transparent entity

or that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Subordinated Note, or any portion of the Subordinated Note.

(9) Additional Amounts will not be payable if a payment on a Subordinated Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the presentation by the beneficial owner of a Subordinated Note for payment more than 30 days after the date on which such payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later.

(12) Additional Amounts will not be payable if a payment on a Subordinated Note is reduced as a result of any withholding, deduction, tax, duty assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for a failure by the holder or beneficial owner of a Subordinated Note (or any financial institution through which the holder or beneficial owner holds the Subordinated Note or through which payment on the Subordinated Note is made) to take any action (including entering into an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service, or a governmental authority of another jurisdiction if the holder is entitled to the benefits of an intergovernmental agreement between that jurisdiction and the United States) or to comply with any applicable certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement or agreement concerning accounts maintained by the holder or beneficial owner (or any such financial institution), or concerning ownership of the holder or beneficial owner, or any substantially similar requirement or agreement.
