Exhibit 4.20

          Capital Replacement Covenant, dated as of January 25, 2008 (this “Covenant”), by Citigroup
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), in favor of, and for the benefit of, each Covered
Debtholder (as defined below).

Recitals

          A. On the date hereof, the Corporation is issuing 148,600 shares of its 8.125% Non-Cumulative
Preferred Stock, Series AA, $1.00 par value (the “Series AA Preferred Stock”), with a liquidation
preference of $25,000 per share and $3,715,000,000 in the aggregate, represented by 148,600,000
depositary shares (together with the Series AA Preferred Stock, the “Securities”), each
representing a 1/1,000th interest in a share of Series AA Preferred Stock.

          B. This Covenant is the “Capital Replacement Covenant” referred to in the Prospectus
Supplement, dated January 18, 2008, relating to the Series AA Preferred Stock.

          C. The Corporation is entering into this Covenant and disclosing the content of this Covenant
in the manner provided below with the intent that the covenants provided for in this Covenant be
enforceable by each Covered Debtholder and that the Corporation be estopped from disregarding the
covenants in this Covenant, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

          D. The Corporation acknowledges that reliance by each Covered Debtholder upon the covenants in
this Covenant is reasonable and foreseeable by the Corporation and that, were the Corporation to
disregard its covenants in this Covenant, each Covered Debtholder would have sustained an injury as
a result of its reliance on such covenants.

          NOW, THEREFORE, the Corporation hereby covenants and agrees as follows in favor of and for the
benefit of each Covered Debtholder.

          SECTION 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Covenant (including the Recitals) have
the meanings set forth in Schedule I hereto.

          SECTION 2. Limitation on Redemption and Purchase of Securities.

          (a) The Corporation hereby promises and covenants to, and for the benefit of, each Covered
Debtholder that the Corporation shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to redeem or
purchase all or any part of the Securities before the Termination Date except to the extent that
(A) the applicable redemption or purchase price is equal to or less than the sum of the following
amounts:

     (i) the Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount of (x) net cash proceeds received
by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries from the sale of Common Stock and rights to acquire
Common Stock to Persons that are not Subsidiaries of the Corporation, (y) the Market Value
of any Common Stock that the Corporation or its Subsidiaries have delivered as consideration
for property or assets in an arm’s length transaction and (z) the Market Value of any Common
Stock that the Corporation and its Subsidiaries have
issued to Persons other than the Corporation and its Subsidiaries in connection with
the conversion of any convertible or exchangeable securities, other than securities for
which

 

 

the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries has received equity credit from any NRSRO,
in each case since the most recent Measurement Date (without double counting proceeds
received in any prior Measurement Period); plus

     (ii) the Applicable Percentage of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the
Corporation or its Subsidiaries since the most recent Measurement Date (without double
counting proceeds received in any prior Measurement Period) from the sale of Mandatorily
Convertible Preferred Stock, Debt Exchangeable for Common Equity, Debt Exchangeable for
Preferred Equity and REIT Preferred Securities; plus

     (iii) the Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount of net cash proceeds received
by the Corporation and its Subsidiaries since the most recent Measurement Date (without
double counting proceeds received in any prior Measurement Period) from the sale of
Qualifying Capital Securities;

in each case to Persons that are not Subsidiaries of the Corporation and (B) the Corporation has
obtained the prior concurrence or approval of the Federal Reserve (which includes the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or its successor
as the Corporation’s primary federal banking regulator) if such concurrence or approval is then
required under the Federal Reserve’s capital rules. For the avoidance of doubt, Persons covered by
the Corporation’s dividend reinvestment plan and employee benefit plans shall be deemed not to be
Subsidiaries of the Corporation for purposes of this Section 2; provided, however, that the
provisions of this Section 2 shall not apply to (i) the purchase of the Securities or any portion
thereof in connection with the distribution thereof or (ii) purchases of the Securities or any
portion thereof by Affiliates of the Corporation in connection with market-making or other
secondary-market activities.

          SECTION 3. Covered Debt

          (a) The Corporation represents and warrants that the Initial Covered Debt is Eligible Debt.

          (b) On the Redesignation Date or during the 30-day period immediately preceding the
Redesignation Date with respect to the then-effective Covered Debt, the Corporation shall identify
the series of Eligible Debt that will become the Covered Debt on and after such Redesignation Date
in accordance with the following procedures:

     (A) the Corporation shall identify each series of its then-outstanding long-term
indebtedness for money borrowed that is Eligible Debt;

     (B) if only one series of the Corporation’s then-outstanding long-term indebtedness for
money borrowed is Eligible Debt, such series shall become the Covered Debt on the related
Redesignation Date;

     (C) if the Corporation has more than one outstanding series of long-term indebtedness
for money borrowed that is Eligible Debt, then the Corporation shall identify the series
that has the latest occurring final maturity date as of the date the

2

 

Corporation is applying
the procedures in this Section 3(b) and such series shall become the Covered Debt on the
related Redesignation Date;

     (D) the series of outstanding long-term indebtedness for money borrowed that is
determined to be Covered Debt pursuant to clause (B) or (C) above shall be the Covered Debt
for purposes of this Covenant for the period commencing on the related Redesignation Date
and continuing to, but not including, the Redesignation Date as of which a new series of
outstanding long-term indebtedness is next determined to be the Covered Debt pursuant to the
procedures set forth in this Section 3(b); and

     (E) in connection with such identification of a new series of Covered Debt, the
Corporation shall give the notice provided for in Section 4 within the time frame provided
for in such section.

          (c) The Corporation agrees that, if at any time the Covered Debt is held by a trust (for
example, where the Covered Debt is part of an issuance of trust preferred securities), a holder of
the securities issued by such trust may enforce this Covenant directly against the Corporation
(including by instituting legal proceedings) as though such holder owned Covered Debt directly, and
the holders of such trust securities shall be deemed to be Covered Debtholders for purposes of this
Covenant for so long as the indebtedness held by such trust remains Covered Debt hereunder.

          SECTION 4. Notice. In order to give effect to the intent of the Corporation described in
Recital C, the Corporation covenants that:

          (a) simultaneous with the execution of this Covenant or as soon as practicable after the date
hereof, it shall (i) give notice to the Holders of the Initial Covered Debt, in the manner provided
in the indenture relating to the Initial Covered Debt, of this Covenant and the rights granted to
such Holders hereunder and (ii) file a copy of this Covenant with the Commission as an exhibit to a
Current Report on Form 8-K under the Exchange Act;

          (b) so long as the Corporation is a reporting company under the Exchange Act, the Corporation
shall include in each annual report filed with the Commission on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act a
description of the covenant set forth in Section 2 and identify the series of long-term
indebtedness for borrowed money that is Covered Debt as of the date such Form 10-K is filed with
the Commission;

          (c) within 30 days after a series of the Corporation’s long-term indebtedness for money
borrowed (1) becomes Covered Debt or (2) ceases to be Covered Debt, the Corporation will give
notice of such occurrence to the holders of such long-term indebtedness for money borrowed in the
manner provided for in the indenture, fiscal agency agreement or other contract or instrument under
which such long-term indebtedness for money borrowed was issued and, thereafter, publicly announce
such occurrence (a) in a Current Report on Form 8-K under
the Exchange Act which either describes this Covenant and incorporates this Covenant by
reference to a previously filed exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K or includes a copy of this
Covenant, and (b) in the Corporation’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q or the Corporation’s

3

 

annual
report on Form 10-K, as applicable (or any successor to such forms), that immediately follows the
public announcement;

          (d) if, and only if, the Corporation ceases to be a reporting company under the Exchange Act,
the Corporation will (1) post on its website or any other similar electronic platform generally
available to the public the information otherwise required to be included in Exchange Act filings
pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 4 and (2), to the extent permitted by Bloomberg or
any other similar third-party vendor that makes available to the marketplace information with
respect to securities that are Covered Debt by posting such information on an electronically
accessible screen (each an “Investor Screen”), cause a notation to be included on each such
Investor Screen identifying the relevant series of indebtedness of the Corporation that is Covered
Debt from time to time as Covered Debt for purposes of this Covenant and cause a hyperlink to a
conformed copy of this Covenant to be included on the Investor Screen for each series of Covered
Debt (but only so long as such series is Covered Debt); and

          (e) promptly upon request by any Holder of Covered Debt, the Corporation will provide such
Holder with a conformed copy of the executed version of this Covenant.

          SECTION 5. Term. (a) The obligations of the Corporation pursuant to this Covenant shall
remain in full force and effect until the earliest date (the “Termination Date”) to occur of (1)
the date, if any, on which the Holders of a majority by principal amount of the then-effective
Covered Debt consent or agree, as evidenced by a resolution of a meeting of the Holders or
otherwise in writing, to the termination of this Covenant, (2) the date on which the Corporation
has no outstanding Eligible Subordinated Debt or Eligible Senior Debt (in each case without giving
effect to the rating requirement in clause (ii) of the definition of each such term) and (3)
February 15, 2023 or, if earlier, when all of the Securities have been redeemed or purchased in
full in compliance with this Capital Replacement Covenant. From and after the Termination Date,
the obligations of the Corporation pursuant to this Covenant shall be of no further force or
effect.

          (b) For purposes of Section 5(a)(1) and Section 6, the Holders whose consent or agreement is
required to terminate the covenants in Section 2 or to amend or supplement the obligations of the
Corporation under this Covenant shall be the Holders of the then-effective Covered Debt as of a
record date established by the Corporation that is not more than 45 days prior to the date on which
the Corporation proposes that such termination, amendment or supplement becomes effective.

          SECTION 6. Amendments. This Covenant may be amended or supplemented from time to time by a
written instrument signed by the Corporation with the consent of the Holders of a majority by
principal amount of the then-effective series of Covered Debt; provided that this Covenant may be
amended or supplemented from time to time by a written instrument signed only by the Corporation
(and without the consent of the Holders of the then-effective
series of Covered Debt) if (i) such amendment or supplement eliminates Common Stock, Debt
Exchangeable for Common Stock, rights to acquire Common Stock, and/or Mandatorily Convertible
Preferred Stock as a Replacement Capital Security, if after the date of this Covenant,

4

 

the
Corporation has been advised in writing by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm or
an accounting standard or interpretive guidance of an existing accounting standard issued by an
organization or regulator that has responsibility for establishing or interpreting accounting
standards in the United States becomes effective such that there is more than an insubstantial risk
that failure to eliminate Common Stock, Debt Exchangeable for Common Stock, rights to acquire
Common Stock and/or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock as a Replacement Capital Security would
result in a reduction in the Corporation’s earnings per share as calculated in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States; (ii) such amendment or supplement is
not adverse to the Holders of the then-effective series of Covered Debt and an officer of the
Corporation has delivered a written certificate to the Holders of the then-effective Covered Debt
in the manner provided for in the indenture, fiscal agency agreement or other instrument with
respect to such Covered Debt stating that, in his or her determination, such amendment or
supplement would not adversely affect the Holders of the then-effective Covered Debt; or (iii) the
effect of such amendment or supplement is solely to impose additional restrictions on, or eliminate
certain of, the types of securities qualifying as Replacement Capital Securities (other than the
securities covered by clause (i) above), and an officer of the Corporation has delivered a written
certificate to the Holders of the then-effective Covered Debt in the manner provided for in the
indenture, fiscal agency agreement or other instrument with respect to such Covered Debt stating
that, in his or her determination, such amendment or supplement would not adversely affect the
Holders of the then-effective Covered Debt. For the avoidance of doubt, an amendment or supplement
that adds new types of Qualifying Capital Securities or modifies the requirements of the Qualifying
Capital Securities described herein would not be adverse to the rights of the Holders of the
then-effective Covered Debt if, following such amendment or supplement, this Covenant would satisfy
clause (ii) of the definition of Qualifying Capital Replacement Covenant.

          SECTION 7. Miscellaneous. (a) This Covenant shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York.

          (b) This Covenant shall be binding upon the Corporation and its successors and assigns and
shall inure to the benefit of the Covered Debtholders as they exist from time to time (it being
understood and agreed by the Corporation that any Person who is a Covered Debtholder at the time
such Person acquires or holds Covered Debt shall retain its status as a Covered Debtholder for so
long as the series of long-term indebtedness for borrowed money owned by such Person is Covered
Debt and, if such Person initiates a claim or proceeding to enforce its rights under this Covenant
after the Corporation has violated its covenants in Section 2 and before the series of long-term
indebtedness for money borrowed held by such Person is no longer Covered Debt, such Person’s rights
under this Covenant shall not terminate by reason of such series of long-term indebtedness for
money borrowed no longer being Covered Debt).

          (c) All demands, notices, requests and other communications to the Corporation under this
Covenant shall be deemed to have been duly given and made if in writing and (i) if served by
personal delivery upon the Corporation, on the day so delivered (or,
if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), (ii) if delivered by registered post or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or sent by a national or international courier service,
on the date of receipt (or, if such date of receipt is not a Business Day, the next succeeding
Business

5

 

Day), or (iii) if sent by telecopier, on the day telecopied, or if not a Business Day, the
next succeeding Business Day; provided that the telecopy is promptly confirmed by telephone
confirmation thereof, in each case to the Corporation at the address set forth below, or at such
other address as the Corporation may thereafter notify to Covered Debtholders or post on the
Corporation’s website as the address for notices under this Covenant:

SCHEDULE I

DEFINITIONS

          “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling
or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the
purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any specified Person means the
power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through
the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and
“controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing.

          “Alternative Payment Mechanism” means, with respect to any Qualifying Capital Securities,
provisions in the related transaction documents requiring the Corporation to issue (or use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to issue) one or more types of APM Qualifying Securities raising
eligible proceeds at least equal to the deferred Distributions on such Qualifying Capital
Securities and apply the proceeds to pay unpaid Distributions on such Qualifying Capital
Securities, commencing on the earlier of (x) the first Distribution Date after commencement of a
deferral period on which the Corporation pays current Distributions on such Qualifying Capital
Securities and (y) the fifth anniversary of the commencement of such deferral period, and that:

          (a) define “eligible proceeds” to mean, for purposes of such Alternative Payment Mechanism,
the net proceeds (after underwriters’ or placement agents’ fees, commissions or discounts and other
expenses relating to the issuance or sale of the relevant securities, where applicable, and
including the fair market value of property received by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries
as consideration for such APM Qualifying Securities) that the Corporation has received during the
180 days prior to the related Distribution Date from the issuance of APM Qualifying Securities, up
to the Preferred Cap in the case of APM Qualifying Securities that are Qualifying Preferred Stock
or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock;

          (b) may permit the Corporation to pay current Distributions on any Distribution Date out of
any source of funds but (x) require the Corporation to pay deferred Distributions only out of
eligible proceeds and (y) prohibit the Corporation from paying deferred Distributions out of any
source of funds other than eligible proceeds;

          (c) if deferral of Distributions continues for more than one year, require the Corporation
not to, and cause its Subsidiaries not to, redeem or purchase any of the Corporation’s securities
ranking junior to or pari passu with any APM Qualifying Securities the proceeds of which were used
to settle deferred interest during the relevant deferral period until at least one year after all
deferred Distributions have been paid (a “Repurchase Restriction”);

          (d) notwithstanding clause (b) of this definition, if the Federal Reserve disapproves the
Corporation’s sale of APM Qualifying Securities or the use of the proceeds thereof to pay deferred
Distributions, may (if the Corporation elects to so provide in the terms of such Qualifying Capital
Securities) permit the Corporation to pay deferred Distributions from any source or, if the Federal
Reserve does not disapprove the Corporation’s issuance and sale of APM Qualifying Securities but
disapproves the use of the proceeds thereof to pay deferred Distributions, may (if the Corporation
elects to so provide in the terms of such Qualifying Capital Securities) permit the Corporation to
use such proceeds for other purposes and to

I-1

 

continue to defer Distributions, without a breach of its obligations under the transaction
documents related to the Qualifying Capital Securities;

          (e) may include a provision that, notwithstanding the APM Maximum Obligation and the
Preferred Cap for purposes of paying deferred interest, limits the ability of the Corporation to
sell shares of Common Stock, Qualifying Warrants, or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock above
an aggregate cap specified in the transaction documents (a “Share Cap”), subject to the
Corporation’s agreement to use commercially reasonable efforts to increase the Share Cap (i) only
to the extent that it can do so and simultaneously satisfy its future fixed or contingent
obligations under other securities and derivative instruments that provide for settlement or
payment in shares of Common Stock or (ii) if the Corporation cannot increase the Share Cap as
contemplated in the preceding clause, by requesting its Board of Directors to adopt a resolution
for shareholder vote at the next annual shareholders meeting occurring at least 4 months after the
date on which the Share Cap has been reached to increase the number of shares of its authorized
Common Stock for purposes of satisfying its obligations to pay deferred Distributions;

          (f) limit the obligation of the Corporation to issue (or use Commercially Reasonable
Efforts to issue) APM Qualifying Securities that are Common Stock and Qualifying Warrants to settle
deferred Distributions pursuant to the Alternative Payment Mechanism either (A) during the first
five years of any deferral period or (B) before an anniversary of the commencement of any deferral
period that is not earlier than the fifth such anniversary and not later than the ninth such
anniversary (as designated in the terms of such Qualifying Capital Securities) with respect to
deferred Distributions attributable to the first five years of such deferral period, either:

          (i) to an aggregate amount of such securities, the net proceeds from the issuance of
which is equal to 2% of the product of the average of the Market Value of the Common Stock on
the ten consecutive trading days ending on the fourth trading day immediately preceding the
date of issuance multiplied by the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock as of the date of the Corporation’s most recent publicly available consolidated
financial statements; or

          (ii) to a number of shares of Common Stock and Qualifying Warrants, in the aggregate,
not in excess of 2% of the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock as of the date of the
Corporation’s most recent publicly available consolidated financial statements (the “APM
Maximum Obligation”);

          (g) limit the right of the Corporation to issue APM Qualifying Securities that are
Qualifying Preferred Stock and Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock to settle deferred
Distributions pursuant to the Alternative Payment Mechanism to an aggregate amount of Qualifying
Preferred Stock and still-outstanding Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock issued pursuant to
the Alternative Payment Mechanism, the net proceeds from the issuance of which with respect to all
deferral periods is equal to 25% of the liquidation or outstanding principal amount of the
securities that are the subject of the related Alternative Payment Mechanism (the “Preferred Cap”);

I-2

 

          (h) in the case of Qualifying Capital Securities other than non-cumulative perpetual
preferred stock, include a Bankruptcy Claim Limitation Provision; and

          (i) may permit the Corporation, at its option, to provide that if it is involved in a
merger, consolidation, amalgamation, binding share exchange or conveyance, transfer or lease of
assets substantially as an entirety to any other person or a similar transaction (a “Business
Combination”) where immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination more than 50% of
the surviving or resulting entity’s voting stock is owned by the shareholders of the other party to
the Business Combination, then clauses (a) through (c) of this definition will not apply to any
deferral period that is terminated on the next Distribution Date following the date of consummation
of the Business Combination (or if later, at any time within 90 days following the date of
consummation of the Business Combination);

provided that:

          (i) the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue (or use Commercially Reasonable Efforts
to issue) APM Qualifying Securities for so long as a Market Disruption Event has occurred and is
continuing;

          (ii) if, due to a Market Disruption Event or otherwise, the Corporation is able to raise
and apply some, but not all, of the eligible proceeds necessary to pay all deferred Distributions
on any Distribution Date, the Corporation will apply any available eligible proceeds to pay accrued
and unpaid Distributions on the applicable Distribution Date in chronological order subject to the
APM Maximum Obligation, Share Cap and Preferred Cap, as applicable; and

          (iii) if the Corporation has outstanding more than one class or series of securities under
which it is obligated to sell a type of APM Qualifying Securities and apply some part of the
proceeds to the payment of deferred Distributions, then on any date and for any period the amount
of net proceeds received by the Corporation from those sales and available for payment of deferred
Distributions on such securities shall be applied to such securities on a pro rata basis up to the
APM Maximum Obligation, Share Cap and Preferred Cap, as applicable, in proportion to the total
amounts that are due on such securities, or on such other basis as the Federal Reserve may approve
or require.

          “APM Maximum Obligation” has the meaning specified in clause (f) of the definition of
Alternative Payment Mechanism.

          “APM Qualifying Securities” means, with respect to an Alternative Payment Mechanism or a

	 	(b)	 	Qualifying Warrants;
	 
	 	(c)	 	Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock; or

I-3

 

	 	(d)	 	Qualifying Preferred Stock;

provided that (i) if the APM Qualifying Securities for any Alternative Payment Mechanism or
Mandatory Trigger Provision include both Common Stock and Qualifying Warrants, such Alternative
Payment Mechanism or Mandatory Trigger Provision may permit, but need not require, the Corporation
to issue Qualifying Warrants and (ii) such Alternative Payment Mechanism or Mandatory Trigger
Provision may permit, but need not require, the Corporation to issue Mandatorily Convertible
Preferred Stock.

         “Applicable Percentage” means:

outstanding that the issuer has applied to pay such Distributions pursuant to the Alternative
Payment Mechanism or the Mandatory Trigger Provision; provided that the holders of such
Qualifying Capital Securities are deemed to agree in the instrument governing such Qualifying
Capital Securities that, to the extent the claim for deferred

I-4

 

interest exceeds the amount set forth in clause (x), the amount they receive in respect
of such excess shall not exceed the amount they would have received if the claim for such

Stock in the form of additional shares of Common Stock, other securities of the Company or
securities of another entity.

     (f) “Termination of Service” means (i) your termination of your employment as an employee of
the Company or a Subsidiary for any reason or (ii) the Company or a Subsidiary terminating your
employment; provided, that (A) death, (B) Disability, (C) a transfer from the Company to a
Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, whether or not incorporated, or vice versa, or from one
Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to another, (D) a change in status from an Employee to a
Limited Partner or (E) a leave of absence, duly authorized in writing by the Company or any
Subsidiary, shall not be deemed a Termination of Service.

          In the event that you incur a change in status from an Employee to a Limited Partner (per
subclause (D) above), then all references in this Restricted Stock Agreement to your employment and
your status as an employee shall instead be deemed to be a reference to your limited partner
membership and your status as a Limited Partner, and “Termination of Service” shall thereafter mean
(i) your termination of your status as a Limited Partner for any reason, or (ii) the Company or any
Subsidiary terminating your status as a Limited Partner; provided, that (A) death and (B)
Disability shall not be deemed a Termination of Service. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
this Restricted Stock Agreement shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of the
Sub-Plan.

	2.	 	Earning of Restricted Stock

          You shall be deemed to have earned the Restricted Stock subject to this Restricted Stock
Agreement as follows; provided, that unearned Restricted Stock may be forfeited in accordance with
paragraph 7:

	 	•	 	25% on the first anniversary of the Grant Date [(“First Vesting Date”),
subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria applicable to the First
Vesting Date set forth in Schedule A];
	 
	 	•	 	25% on the second anniversary of the Grant Date [(“Second Vesting Date”),
subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria applicable to the Second
Vesting Date set forth in Schedule A];
	 
	 	•	 	25% on the third anniversary of the Grant Date [(“Third Vesting Date”),
subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria applicable to the Third
Vesting Date set forth in Schedule A]; and
	 
	 	•	 	25% on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date [(“Fourth Vesting Date”),
subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria applicable to the Fourth
Vesting Date set forth in Schedule A].

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if one of the following events occurs earlier, and

3

 

prior to
forfeiture under paragraph 7, you shall be deemed to have earned 100% of the Restricted Stock
subject to this Restricted Stock Agreement on the date of occurrence of such event: (a) your death
or Disability; or (b) the occurrence of a Change of Control and within one year after such Change
of Control, the occurrence of a Termination of Service because the Company or any Subsidiary has
terminated your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary without Cause.

          Once earned, all restrictions attaching to the Restricted Stock shall cease to apply and the
Restricted Stock shall cease to be forfeitable and can be transferred subject to the applicable
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

	3.	 	Retention of Certificates for Restricted Stock

          Certificates for the Restricted Stock and any Stock Dividends shall be delivered to and held
by the Company, or shall be held in book-entry form subject to the Company’s instructions, until
you shall have earned the Restricted Stock in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 2. To
facilitate implementation of the provisions of this Restricted Stock Agreement, you undertake to
sign and deposit with the Company’s Office of the Secretary (i) a Stock Transfer Power in the form
of Attachment 1 hereto with respect to the Restricted Stock; (ii) a Dividend Order (with respect to
Stock Dividends) in the form of Attachment 2 hereto; and (iii) such other documents appropriate to
effectuate the purpose and intent of this Restricted Stock Agreement as the Company may reasonably
request from time to time.

	4.	 	Non-Stock Dividends

          Non-Stock Dividends on the Restricted Stock held by you shall be paid to you as and when
declared and paid by the Company, subject to applicable withholding. You shall not be entitled to
any Dividend Equivalents in respect of Restricted Stock subject to this Restricted Stock Agreement.

	5.	 	Voting Rights

          Notwithstanding the retention by the Company of certificates (or the right to give
instructions with respect to shares held in book-entry form) for the Restricted Stock and any Stock
Dividends, you shall be entitled to vote the Restricted Stock and any Stock Dividends held by the
Company in accordance with paragraph 3, unless and until such shares have been forfeited in
accordance with paragraph 7.

	6.	 	Delivery of Earned Restricted Stock

          As promptly as practicable after you shall have been deemed to have earned the Restricted
Stock in accordance with paragraph 2, the Company shall deliver to you (or in the event of your
death, to your estate or any person who acquires your interest in the Restricted Stock by bequest
or inheritance) the Restricted Stock earned, together with any Stock Dividends earned then held by
the Company (or subject to its instructions).

	7.	 	Forfeiture of Unearned Restricted Stock and Stock Dividends

          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Restricted Stock Agreement, (a) if at

4

 

any time it
shall become impossible for you to earn any of the Restricted Stock in accordance with this
Restricted Stock Agreement, or (b) unless determined otherwise by the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors, in the event of a Termination of Service (other than as provided in paragraph
2), all unearned Restricted Stock, together with any Stock Dividends relating to the unearned
stock, then being held by the Company (or subject to its instructions) in accordance with paragraph
3 shall be forfeited, and you shall have no further rights of any kind or nature with respect
thereto. Upon any such forfeiture, the Restricted Stock, together with any Stock Dividends relating
to the unearned Restricted Stock, shall be transferred to the Company.

	8.	 	Transferability

          Except as otherwise provided in the Sub-Plan, this grant is not transferable by you and the
Restricted Stock, any Non-Stock Dividends and any Stock Dividends shall be deliverable, during your
lifetime, only to you.

	9.	 	Withholding

          The Company shall have the right, in connection with the delivery of the Restricted Stock and
any Non-Stock Dividends and Stock Dividends (and interest thereon) subject to this Restricted Stock
Agreement, (i) to deduct from any payment otherwise due by the Company to you or any other person
receiving delivery of the Restricted Stock and any Non-Stock Dividends and Stock Dividends (and
interest thereon) an amount equal to the taxes and social security required to be withheld by law
with respect to such delivery, (ii) to require you or any other person receiving such delivery to
pay to it an amount sufficient to provide for any such taxes and social security so required to be
withheld or (iii) to sell for fair market value such number of the Restricted Stock and any Stock
Dividends as may be necessary so that the net proceeds of such sale shall be an amount sufficient
to provide for any such taxes and social security so required to be withheld. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that you make an effective election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code
with respect to the Restricted Stock or any Stock Dividends, the Company shall require you to
deliver to the Company concurrently with such election, (1) a copy of the election and (2) payment
of the amount that is equal to the taxes required to be withheld pursuant to such election.

	10.	 	No Obligation to Register

          The Company shall be under no obligation to register the resale of the Restricted Stock or any
Stock Dividends pursuant to the Securities Act or any other federal or state securities laws. The
Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares until they have been listed (or authorized for
listing upon official notice of issuance) upon each stock exchange upon which are listed
outstanding shares of the same class as that of the shares subject to this award and until there
have been compliance with such laws and regulations as the Company may deem applicable.

	11.	 	Restrictive Legends

          Until you have earned the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Restricted Stock
Agreement, certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock or confirmation and

5

 

account
statements relating to shares of Restricted Stock in book-entry form shall bear the restrictive
legends in the form of Attachment 3 hereto.

	12.	 	Protections Against Violations of Agreement

          No purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, gift,
transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in
or lien on, any of the Restricted Stock by any holder thereof in violation of the provisions of
this Restricted Stock Agreement will be valid, and the Company will not transfer any of said
Restricted Stock on its books nor will any such Restricted Stock be entitled to vote, nor will any
distributions be paid thereon, unless and until there has been full compliance with said provisions
to the satisfaction of the Company. The foregoing restrictions are in addition to and not in lieu
of any other remedies, legal or equitable, available to enforce said provisions.

	13.	 	Failure to Enforce Not a Waiver

          The failure of the Company to enforce at any time any provision of this Restricted Stock
Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision
hereof.

	14.	 	Survival of Terms

          This Restricted Stock Agreement shall apply to and bind you, the Company and your and its
respective permitted assignees and transferees, heirs, legatees, executors, administrators and
legal successors.

	15.	 	Counterparts

          This Restricted Stock Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same
instrument.

	16.	 	Severability

          Should any provision of this Restricted Stock Agreement be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable, or enforceable only if modified, such holding shall not affect
the validity of the remainder of this Restricted Stock Agreement, the balance of which shall
continue to be binding upon the parties hereto with any such modification (if any) to become a part
hereof and treated as though contained in this original Restricted Stock Agreement. Moreover, if
one or more of the provisions contained in this Restricted Stock Agreement shall for any reason be
held to be excessively broad as to scope, activity, subject or otherwise so as to be unenforceable,
in lieu of severing such unenforceable provision, such provision or provisions shall be construed
by the appropriate judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them, so as to be enforceable to the
maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear, and such determination
by such judicial body shall not affect the enforceability of such provisions or provisions in any
other jurisdiction.

	17.	 	Acceptance

          You have read and understand the terms and provisions of this Restricted Stock Agreement, and
accept the Restricted Stock subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Sub-Plan and
this Restricted Stock Agreement. You may obtain copies of the Plan or Sub-Plan from the Company
upon request. You hereby agree to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or
interpretations of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors upon any questions arising
under this Restricted Stock Agreement. Please sign your name in the space provided on this
Restricted Stock Agreement and deliver it to Alejandro San Miguel, General Counsel and Corporate
Secretary of the Company, at 390 Park Avenue, 20th Floor, New York, NY 10022, on or before the 15th
day after the date of this Restricted Stock Agreement (subject to any reasonable extension that the
Company may provide), together with the attached Stock Power and Dividend Order. If the Company
does not have your properly signed copy of this Restricted Stock Agreement, Stock Power and
Dividend Order in hand before the close of business on the 15th day after the date of this
Restricted Stock Agreement (subject to any reasonable extension that the Company may provide),
then, anything in this Restricted Stock Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, your right to
receive the award will terminated and be of no effect.

	18.	 	Applicable Law

          This Restricted Stock Agreement and the Company’s obligation to deliver Restricted Stock and
any Stock Dividends and Non-Stock Dividends (and interest thereon) hereunder shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and the Federal law
of the United States applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within the State of
Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such State.
