Company and Participant regarding the Award and supersede all previous written,
oral, or implied understandings between the parties hereto about the subject
matter hereof, including any written or electronic agreement, election form or
other communication to, from or between Participant and the Company. Nothing
contained herein, in the Plan, or in any Prospectus shall confer upon
Participant any rights to continued employment or employment in any particular
position, at any specific rate of compensation, or for any particular period of
time. 

     

    10. Amendment. The Personnel & Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors of Citigroup (the “Committee”) may, in its
sole discretion, modify, amend, terminate or suspend the Award or the Program at

Participant’s rights with respect to the Award, as determined by the Committee,
without Participant’s written consent.

Any disputes related
to an Award shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Company’s
arbitration policies. In the absence of an effective arbitration policy,
Participant understands and agrees that any dispute related to an Award shall be
submitted to arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American
Arbitration Association, if so elected by the Company in its sole discretion. In
the event of a conflict between the Prospectus and this Notification, this Notification shall

Plan shall control. This Notification shall be governed by the laws of the State

conflict of laws principles) as to all matters, including, but not limited to,
the construction, application, validity and administration of the Program.


     

    12. Compliance with Emergency Economic
Stabilization Act of 2008. If Participant and any Award governed by this Notification are subject to
Section 111 of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as amended, and
any regulations, determinations or interpretations that may from time to time be
promulgated thereunder (“EESA”), then any Award provided for by this
Notification must comply with EESA, and that this Notification shall be
interpreted or reformed to so comply. If the making of any Award pursuant to
this Notification would violate EESA, or if the making of such Award may in the
judgment of the Company limit or adversely impact the ability of the Company to
participate in, or the terms of the Company’s participation in, the Troubled
Asset Relief Program, the Capital Purchase Program, or to qualify for any other
relief under EESA, Participant shall be deemed to have waived his or her right
to such Award. In addition, if applicable, the Award will be subject to
forfeiture or repayment if the Award is based on performance metrics that are
later determined to be materially inaccurate. If applicable, Participant also
hereby grants to the U. S. Treasury (or other body of the U.S. government) and
to the Company a waiver releasing the U.S. Treasury (or other body) and the
Company from any claims that Participant may otherwise have as a result of the
issuance of any regulations, determinations or interpretations that adversely
modify the terms of the Award or any benefits plans, arrangements and agreements
to eliminate any provisions that would not be in compliance with the executive
compensation and corporate governance requirements of Section 111 of EESA and
any regulations, determinations or interpretations that may from time to time be
promulgated thereunder, or any securities purchase agreement or other agreement
entered into between the Company and the U.S. Treasury (or other body) pursuant
to EESA. 

     

    13. Disclosure Regarding Use of Personal
Information and Participant’s Consent.

Award, or any other equity program, and the implementation and administration of
