Ladies and Gentlemen:

Citigroup Capital XIII (the “Trust”), a statutory trust organized under the Statutory Trust Act (the “Delaware Act”) of the State of Delaware (Chapter 38, Title 12, of the Delaware Business Code, 12 Del. C. §3801 et seq.) has issued to the United States Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) 89,840,000 7.875% Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Trust Preferred Securities (TruPS^®) with an aggregate liquidation amount equal to $2,246,000,000 (the “Capital Securities”). Treasury (the “Selling Securityholder”) proposes, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, to sell the Capital Securities to the several underwriters named in Schedule III hereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you (the “Representatives”) are acting as representatives.

The Capital Securities were issued pursuant to the terms of an amended and restated declaration of trust, dated as of September 29, 2010 (the “Declaration”), among Citigroup Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), as sponsor, the trustees named therein (the “Citigroup Capital Trustees”) and the holders from time to time of undivided beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust. The Declaration is qualified as an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. Pursuant to the Declaration, the number of Citigroup Capital Trustees is initially five. Three of the Citigroup Capital Trustees (the “Regular Trustees”) are persons who are employees or officers of the Company. The fourth Citigroup Capital Trustee is a financial institution unaffiliated with the Company that serves as property trustee under the Declaration and as indenture trustee with respect to the Capital Securities for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act (the “Institutional Trustee”). The fifth Citigroup Capital Trustee is a financial institution or an affiliate thereof which maintains a principal place of business in the State of Delaware, meeting the requirements of the Delaware Act (the “Delaware Trustee”). Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking association (“BNYM”), is the Institutional Trustee and BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware, a banking association with its principal

place of business in the State of Delaware, is the Delaware Trustee. The Capital Securities are guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis with respect to distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption or otherwise (the “Guarantee”) pursuant to the Capital Securities Guarantee Agreement dated as of September 29, 2010 (the “Guarantee Agreement”) between the Company and BNYM, as Trustee (the “Guarantee Trustee”).

The assets of the Trust consist of $2,246,025,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.875% Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due October 30, 2040 (the “Subordinated Debentures”) of the Company which have been issued under an indenture, dated as of July 23, 2004 (as supplemented, the “Indenture”), between the Company and BNYM, as successor trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”). Under certain circumstances, the Subordinated Debentures are distributable to the holders of undivided beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust. The Capital Securities, the Guarantee and the Subordinated Debentures are referred to herein as the “Securities.”

The Company and the Trust have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement (File Nos. 333-157459 and 000-000000-00, respectively), including a related form of prospectus, on Form S-3, relating to the securities (the “Shelf Securities”), including the Securities, to be offered and sold from time to time. The registration statement as of its most recent effective date, including the information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A or Rule 430B under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), together with any amendments or supplements thereto as of its most recent effective date is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” “Preliminary Prospectus” means any preliminary prospectus relating to the Securities filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act prior to filing of the Final Prospectus (as defined below). “Final Prospectus” means the final prospectus, relating to the Securities, filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act on or before the second business day after the date hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, “free writing prospectus” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, and “Permitted Free Writing Prospectuses” means the documents listed on Schedule I hereto or otherwise approved in writing by the Representatives in accordance with Section 5(b). As used herein, the terms “Registration Statement,” “Preliminary Prospectus” and “Final Prospectus” shall include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein. The terms “supplement,” “amendment” and “amend” as used herein with respect to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any free writing prospectus shall include all documents subsequently filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein (the “Incorporated Documents”).

The Selling Securityholder and the Company wish to confirm as follows their agreement with you and the other several Underwriters listed on Schedule III on whose behalf you are acting, in connection with the several purchases of the Capital Securities by the Underwriters. To the extent there are no additional Underwriters listed on Schedule III other than you, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean you, as Underwriters, and the terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires.

the Final Term Sheet and any other Permitted Free Writing Prospectus to the extent required by Rule 433 under the Securities Act, and to provide copies of the Final Prospectus and each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus (to the extent not previously delivered or filed on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system or any successor system thereto) to the Representatives and the Selling Securityholder via electronic mail in “.pdf” format on such filing date to an electronic mail account designated by the Representatives or the Selling Securityholder and, at any Representative’s request, to also furnish copies of the Final Prospectus to the New York Stock Exchange, as may be required by the rules or regulations of such exchange.

(c) Prior to the termination of the offering of the Capital Securities, to promptly advise the Representatives and the Selling Securityholder (i) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any notice objecting to its use or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (ii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Capital Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the occurrence of any such suspension or objection to the use of the Registration Statement and, upon such issuance, occurrence or notice of objection, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal of such stop order or relief from such occurrence or objection, including, if necessary, by filing an amendment to the Registration Statement or a new registration statement and using its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable.

(d) If, at any time prior to the filing of the Final Prospectus with respect to the General Disclosure Package, or at any time when a prospectus relating to the Capital Securities is required to be delivered under the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act) with respect to the Final Prospectus, any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made at such time not misleading, the Company will (i) notify promptly the Selling Securityholder and the Representatives so that any use of the Final Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement the Final Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package, subject to Section 5(a) above, to correct such statement or omission; and (iii) supply any amendment or supplement to the Representatives and the Selling Securityholder in such quantities as the Representatives or the Selling Securityholder may reasonably request.

(e) To arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Capital Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as the Representatives reasonably may designate, will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required

for the distribution of the Capital Securities and will pay any fee of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), if any, in connection with its review of the offering; provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Capital Securities, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

(f) As soon as practicable, to make generally available to its security holders and to the Representatives a consolidated earnings statement or statements of the Company and its subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158.

(g) Whether or not the transactions contemplated in this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, to pay or cause to be paid all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including: (i) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s counsel and accountants in connection with the registration of the Capital Securities under the Securities Act and all other fees or expenses in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus, any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company and amendments and supplements to any of the foregoing, including the filing fees payable to the Commission relating to the Capital Securities (within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1), if applicable), all printing costs associated therewith, and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Representatives and the Selling Securityholder, in the quantities hereinabove specified, (ii) the cost of printing or producing any Blue Sky or Legal Investment memorandum in connection with the offer and sale of the Capital Securities under state securities laws and all expenses in connection with the qualification of the Capital Securities for offer and sale under state securities laws as provided in Section 5(e) above, including filing fees in connection with such qualification and in connection with the Blue Sky or Legal Investment memorandum, (iii) all filing fees in connection with the offering contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, FINRA filing fees, if any, (iv) all costs and expenses incident to listing the Capital Securities on the New York Stock Exchange, (v) the costs and charges of any transfer agent, registrar or depositary, and (vi) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section 5. It is understood, however, that except as provided in this Section 5 and Section 8, the Underwriters will pay all of their costs and expenses, including any advertising expenses connected with any offers the Underwriters may make.

(h) During the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Settlement Date, not to sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to sell or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or permit the registration under the Securities Act of, any securities of the Company that are substantially similar to the Capital Securities, except for (i) the

registration of the Capital Securities and the sales through or to the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or with the consent of the Representatives and (ii) transactions with the FDIC relating to the capital securities of Citigroup Capital XXXIII held by it.

(i) The Company will comply with all applicable securities and other laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, and use its best efforts to cause the Company’s directors and officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with such laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.

(j) Not to take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company or the Trust to facilitate the sale or resale of the Capital Securities, except that no agreement is made as to the activities of any Underwriter.

6. Covenants of the Selling Securityholder. The Selling Securityholder covenants and agrees with the several Underwriters and the Company that it will not prepare or have prepared on its behalf or use, distribute or refer to any free writing prospectus without the prior approval of the Representatives and the Company.

7. Covenants of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter covenants with the Company not to take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission under Rule 433(d) a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that otherwise would not be required to be filed by the Company thereunder, but for the action of the Underwriter.

8. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) Each of the Trust and the Company jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees, agents of each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each affiliate of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, any free writing prospectus that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to such

Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter by the Representatives expressly for use therein.

(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company, the Trust, the Company’s directors, the Company’s officers and the Regular Trustees who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Trust to each Underwriter, but only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter by the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, any free writing prospectus that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing, and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by such Underwriter, in the case of a party indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Company, in the case of a party indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for

any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Trust, on the one hand, and such Underwriter, on the other hand, from the offering of the Capital Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by Section 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in Section 8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Trust, on the one hand, and of the relevant Underwriter, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Trust, on the one hand, and such Underwriter, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Capital Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Capital Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Selling Securityholder bear to the total commissions received by such Underwriter. The relative fault of the Company and the Trust, on the one hand, and such Underwriter, on the other hand, 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 Trust or by such Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) The Company, the Trust and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8,

each Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Capital Securities sold by it were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that the Underwriter 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Trust contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any person controlling such Underwriter or any affiliate of such Underwriter or by or on behalf of the Company or the Trust, the Company’s officers or directors or any person controlling the Company or the Trust and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Capital Securities.

(g) The provisions of this Section 8 shall not be deemed to supersede or otherwise affect provisions of Section 4.6(g) of the Exchange Agreement dated June 9, 2009 between the Company and the Selling Securityholder with respect to the rights (including the rights of their respective agents) and obligations of each of them to the other pursuant thereto.

9. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

10. Termination. (a) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the earliest to occur of the following: (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10(c) below, (ii) such time as all Capital Securities have been sold pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (iii) this Agreement is otherwise terminated by mutual agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement or pursuant to this clause (a) shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 1 and Section 8 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the relevant parties.

(c) The Representatives may terminate this Agreement by notice given to the Company and the Selling Securityholder, if on or after the date hereof and prior to the Settlement Date:

(A) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, the New York Stock Exchange, (B) trading of the common stock of the Company shall have been suspended on the New York Stock Exchange, (C) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (D) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (E) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in the Representatives’ judgment after consultation with the Company, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this Section 10(c), makes it, in the Representatives’ judgment after consultation with the Company, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Capital Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Final Prospectus.

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant this Section 10(c), then each of the Underwriters and the Selling Securityholder shall be released from any of its obligations under Section 3 with respect to the Capital Securities. The Company shall hold the Underwriters and the Selling Securityholder harmless against any loss, claim, damage or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with the cancellation of any purchase pursuant to this Section 10(c).

11. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Capital Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Capital Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule III hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Capital Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Capital Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Capital Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Capital Securities set forth in Schedule III hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Capital Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Capital Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company or the Trust. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 11, the Settlement Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter

of its liability, if any, to the Selling Shareholder, the Company, the Trust or any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

12. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, including the schedules attached hereto, represents the entire agreement among the Company, the Trust and the Underwriters with respect to the preparation of any Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, the conduct of the offering and the sale and distribution of the Capital Securities.

(b) Each of the Company and the Trust acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Capital Securities: (i) each Underwriter has acted and will act at arm’s length and owes no fiduciary duties to the Company or the Trust, (ii) each Underwriter owes the Company and the Trust only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any, and (iii) each Underwriter may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Trust. Each of the Company and the Trust waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims they may have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the sale and distribution of the Capital Securities.

13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

14. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York; provided that all rights and obligations of the Selling Securityholder under this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the federal law of the United States of America.

15. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

16. Notices.
