CITI LONG-TERM RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT
APPENDIX

This Appendix constitutes part of the Equity Award Agreement (the "Agreement") and is applicable to the Long-Term Restricted Stock Program award summarized on the first page of the Agreement. This Appendix is part of the Agreement and sets forth the terms and conditions and other information applicable to the restricted or deferred stock award (the "Award") made to Participant under the Program, as described in the Award Summary on page 1. All Awards are denominated in shares of Citigroup common stock, par value $.01 per share (referred to herein as "shares" or "Citigroup stock"). The "Company", for purposes of the Agreement, shall mean Citigroup and its subsidiaries that participate in the Program, except where provided otherwise herein.

1. Terms and Conditions. The terms, conditions, and restrictions of the Award are set forth below. Certain of these provisions, along with other important information, are summarized in the Citi Long-Term Restricted Stock Program prospectus dated [MONTH] [DAY], [YEAR], and any applicable prospectus supplement (together, the "Prospectus"). The terms, conditions, and restrictions of the Award include, but are not limited to, provisions relating to amendment, vesting, and cancelation of Awards, restrictions on the transfer of Awards, and any provisions, restrictions or limitations that may be imposed on the Award in accordance with Sections 5 and 16 below.

By accepting the Award, Participant acknowledges that he or she has read and understands the Prospectus and the terms and conditions set forth in this Appendix. Participant understands that this Award and all other incentive awards are entirely discretionary and that no right to receive the Award, or any incentive award, exists absent a prior written agreement to the contrary.

Participant understands that the value that may be realized from the Award, if any, is contingent and depends on the future market price of Citigroup stock, among other factors, and that because equity awards are discretionary, and intended to promote employee retention and stock ownership and to align employees' interests with those of stockholders, equity awards are subject to vesting conditions and will be canceled if vesting conditions are not satisfied.

Any monetary value assigned to the Award in any communication regarding the Award is contingent, hypothetical, and for illustrative purposes only and does not express or imply any promise or intent by the Company to deliver, directly or indirectly, any certain or determinable cash value to Participant. Receipt of the Award or any other incentive award is neither an indication nor a guarantee that an incentive award of any type or amount will be made in the future, and absent a written agreement to the contrary, the Company is free to change its practices and policies regarding incentive awards at any time in its sole discretion.

Any actual, anticipated, or estimated financial benefit to Participant from the Award is not and shall not be deemed to be a normal or an integral part of Participant's regular or expected salary or compensation from employment for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any statutory, common law or other severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments, and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company.

2. Vesting. If conditions to vesting are satisfied, vested shares underlying the Award (less any shares withheld for the payment of taxes) will be (i) distributed to Participant and Participant's ownership of such vested shares will be shown on the Company's Equity Compensation Web site (ECWeb), and (ii) transferred to Participant's Citi Personal Wealth Management ("CPWM") or Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx ("MSSB") account on file with the Company's Equity Compensation Department (or transferred via book-entry in the Direct Registration System (DRS) if Participant does not have a CPWM or MSSB account on file with the Company's Equity Compensation Department) as soon as is reasonably practicable after the date(s) such shares become transferable in accordance with Section 4.

Vesting is conditioned on Participant's continuous employment with the Company up to and including the scheduled vesting date, unless otherwise provided below.

3. Fractional Shares. Participant acknowledges that only whole shares of Citigroup stock may be delivered upon the vesting of the Award, and that while Citigroup will endeavor to compensate Participant in cash for any fractional shares Participant would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of the Award, due to foreign exchange controls that may be in effect from time to time in certain countries, there is no guarantee that such payments can be made to Participants residing outside of the United States, and the Company shall not be liable if for such reason payment is not made to Participant.

4. Transfer Restriction. If conditions to vesting are satisfied, the vested shares underlying the Award will remain subject to a restriction on the sale or transfer of such shares ("transfer restriction") that will lapse upon the following events: (1) 25% of Participant's shares will be transferable on the date the Company repays the U.S. government 25% of the aggregate financial assistance it received under Troubled Asset Relief Program ("TARP"); (2) an additional 25% of Participant's shares (or an aggregate total of 50% of Participant's shares) will be transferable on the date the Company repays the U.S. government 50% of the aggregate financial assistance it received under TARP; (3) an additional 25% of Participant's shares (or an aggregate total of 75% of Participant's shares) will be transferable on the date the Company repays the U.S. government 75% of the aggregate financial assistance it received under TARP; and (4) the remainder of Participant's shares will be transferable on the date the Company repays the U.S. government 100% of the aggregate financial assistance it received under TARP. Participant will be notified when all or a portion of his or her vested shares become transferrable on account of the Company's repayment of the financial assistance it received under TARP.

5. Clawback; Misconduct or Error; Downturn in Performance or Failure of Risk Management.

(a) The shares subject to the Award will be canceled or forfeited or subject to recovery by the Company if (i) the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Citigroup's Board of Directors (the "Committee") determines that (A) Participant received the Award based on materially inaccurate financial statements (which includes, but is not limit to, statements of earnings, revenues, or gains) or any other materially inaccurate performance metric criteria, (B) Participant knowingly engaged in providing inaccurate information (including knowingly failing to timely correct inaccurate information) relating to financial statements or performance metrics, or (C) Participant materially violated any risk limits established or revised by senior management, a business head and/or risk management, or any balance sheet or working or regulatory capital guidance provided by a business head, or (ii) Participant's employment is terminated on account of misconduct (as defined below). For purposes of the Agreement, "misconduct" means Participant's engaging in any conduct that (i) is in competition with the Company's business operations, (ii) that breaches any obligation that Participant owes to the Company or Participant's duty of loyalty to the Company, (iii) is materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise, or (iv) is otherwise determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, to constitute misconduct.

(b) If Participant is subject to any applicable non-U.S. legal, regulatory or governmental requirement, direction, supervisory comment, guidance or promulgation and the Committee determines (i) there is reasonable evidence that Participant engaged in misconduct or committed material error, in either case in connection with his or her employment, or (ii) the Company or Participant's business unit has suffered a material downturn in its financial performance or a material failure of risk management, the Committee in its sole discretion may determine that the Award shall be canceled or that the number of shares that are or may otherwise become distributable to Participant pursuant to the Agreement shall be reduced.

6. Termination and Interruption of Employment. Participation in the Program, including but not limited to Participant's right to vest in the Award, is conditioned upon Participant's continuous employment with the Company, except as otherwise provided below.

If Participant's continuous employment with the Company terminates or is interrupted for any reason not stated below, vesting of the Award will cease immediately, the Award will be canceled and Participant shall have no further rights of any kind with respect to the Award. If Participant's continuous employment with the Company terminates or is interrupted for a reason stated below, Participant's rights with respect to the Award will be affected as provided below. For purposes of the Agreement, employment with the

Company shall include working for a subsidiary that is a member of the "controlled group" of Citigroup (as defined below). For these purposes, "controlled group" has the meaning set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)(3). [INCLUDE SUB-SECTIONS (a)—(f) AS APPLICABLE]

(a) Disability. Unvested shares will continue to vest on schedule during a Participant's approved disability leave pursuant to a Company disability policy. If Participant's approved disability leave results in his or her involuntary termination of employment with the Company by reason of disability, unvested shares shall vest on Participant's termination date.

(b) Approved Personal Leave of Absence (Non-Statutory Leave). Unvested shares will continue to vest on schedule during the first six months of Participant's personal leave of absence, provided that Participant's leave of absence was approved by management of Participant's business unit in accordance with the leave of absence policies applicable to Participant (an "approved personal leave of absence"). Any unvested shares will be canceled as soon as the approved personal leave of absence has exceeded six months. If the employment of Participant terminates for any reason during the first six months of an approved personal leave of absence, then such applicable provisions of this Section 6 will apply.

(c) Statutory Leave of Absence. Unvested shares will continue to vest during a leave of absence that is approved by management of Participant's business unit, is provided by applicable law and is taken in accordance with such law and applicable Company policy (a "statutory leave of absence"). If a statutory leave of absence is followed without interruption by an approved personal leave of absence, any unvested shares will be canceled as of the date that the combined leaves, if continuous, have exceeded six months. If the employment of Participant terminates for any reason during an approved statutory leave of absence, then such applicable provisions of this Section 6 will apply.

(d) Death. If Participant's employment terminates by reason of Participant's death, unvested shares will vest.

(e) Transfer to Non-Participating Subsidiary.

(i) If Participant transfers to a subsidiary that is a member of the "controlled group" of Citigroup (as defined below), unvested shares will continue to vest on schedule.

(ii) If Participant transfers to a subsidiary that is not a member of the "controlled group" of Citigroup (as defined below), any unvested shares will be canceled.

For purposes of the Agreement, "controlled group" has the meaning set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)(3).

(f) Employing Company is Acquired by Another Entity (Change in Control) [INSERT EITHER ALTERNATIVE 1 OR 2 BELOW]

[ALERNATIVE 1: If Participant's employer is acquired by another entity in a transaction that is described in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (hereinafter, a "change in control"), Participant's employment will not be deemed to have terminated in connection with the change in control and unvested shares will continue to vest on schedule subject to all other provisions of the Agreement. If the employment of Participant terminates for any reason on or after the change in control, then such applicable provisions of this Section 6 will apply.]

[ALTERNATIVE 2: (i) If Participant is employed by a company or other legal entity that is the subject of a transaction that is described in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (hereinafter, a "change in control"), and the change in control is not, or is not a result of, a change in control of Citigroup, unvested shares will vest on the effective date of the change in control unless the vesting of such shares would be prohibited under the

Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as amended, and any applicable rules or regulations thereunder, or any other provision of applicable law.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Citigroup experiences a change in control, unvested shares will continue to vest on schedule subject to all other provisions of the Agreement.

(iii) Participant acknowledges that in the event of a "Change of Control" (as defined in the Plan) of Citigroup, the Committee, in its sole discretion may, subject only to the limitations specified in the Plan and in Sections 4, 5, 15 and 16 of the Agreement, take any actions with respect to awards (including this Award) that are permitted by the Plan, including, but not limited to, making adjustments that it deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the transaction, or causing awards to be assumed, or new rights substituted therefor, by the surviving entity in such transaction.]

7. Non-Transferability. Prior to the vesting of the Award and the lapse of the transfer restriction set forth in Section 4, neither the Award, nor any share subject to the Award, may be sold, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, margined or otherwise transferred, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and neither the Award nor any interest or right therein shall be subject to the debts, contracts or engagements of Participant or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law, by judgment, lien, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy or divorce), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void, of no effect, and not binding on the Company in any way. Participant agrees that any purported transfer shall be null and void, and shall constitute a breach of the Agreement causing damage to the Company for which the remedy shall be a cancellation of the Award. During Participant's lifetime, all rights with respect to the Award shall be exercisable only by Participant, and any and all payments in respect of the Award shall be to Participant only.

8. Stockholder Rights. Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of Citigroup over any unvested shares covered by the Award, except that during the vesting period Participant shall receive dividend or dividend equivalent payments in respect of shares subject to the Award.

9. Right of Set Off. Participant agrees that the Company may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, retain for itself funds or securities otherwise payable to Participant pursuant to this Award or any award under any equity award program administered by Citigroup to offset any amounts paid by the Company to a third party pursuant to any award, judgment, or settlement of a complaint, arbitration, or lawsuit of which Participant was the subject; to satisfy any obligation or debt that Participant owes the Company or its affiliates; or in the event any equity award is canceled pursuant to its terms. The Company may not retain such funds or securities and set off such obligations or liabilities, as described above, until such time as they would otherwise be distributable to Participant in accordance with the applicable award terms.

10. Consent to Electronic Delivery. In lieu of receiving documents in paper format, Participant hereby agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that Citigroup may be required to deliver (including, but not limited to, prospectuses, prospectus supplements, grant or award notifications and agreements, account statements, annual and quarterly reports, and all other forms or communications) in connection with the Award and any other prior or future incentive award or program made or offered by Citigroup or its predecessors or successors. Electronic delivery of a document to Participant may be via a Company e-mail system or by reference to a location on a Company intranet site to which Participant has access.

11. Plan Administration. The Award has been granted subject to the terms of the Plan, and the shares deliverable to Participant in connection with the Award will be from the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

12. Adjustments. In the event of any change in Citigroup's capital structure on account of (i) any extraordinary dividend, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or any similar equity restructuring; or (ii) any combination or exchange of equity securities, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reorganization, divestiture or other distribution (other than ordinary cash dividends) of assets to stockholders, or any other similar event affecting Citigroup's capital structure, to the extent necessary to

prevent the enlargement or diminution of the rights of Participants, the Committee shall make such appropriate equitable adjustments as may be permitted by the terms of the Plan and applicable law, to the number or kind of shares subject to the Award. All such adjustments shall conform to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable, and, if the Award is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code, such adjustments or substitutions shall be made only to the extent that the Committee determines that such adjustments or substitutions may be made without causing the Company to be denied a tax deduction on account of Section 162(m) of the Code. Citigroup shall give each Participant notice of an adjustment hereunder and, upon notice, such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, decline to adjust any Award, if it determines that such adjustment would violate applicable law or result in adverse tax consequences to Participant or the Company, and neither the Committee nor Citigroup shall be bound to compensate Participant for any such adjustment not made, nor shall they be liable to Participant for any additional personal tax or other consequences of any adjustments that are made to the Award.

13. Taxes and Tax Residency Status. By accepting the Award, Participant agrees to pay all applicable income and/or social taxes and file all required tax returns in all jurisdictions where Participant is subject to tax and/or an income tax filing requirement. If Participant is an employee in one of Citigroup's expatriate programs, he or she agrees to pay all applicable income and/or social taxes and file all tax returns in accordance with the applicable expatriate policy. To assist Citigroup in achieving full compliance with its obligations under the laws of all relevant taxing jurisdictions, Participant agrees to keep complete and accurate records of his or her income tax residency status and the number and location of workdays outside his or her country of income tax residency from the date of the Award until the later of the vesting of the Award or the subsequent sale of any shares received in connection with the Award. By signing the Agreement, Participant also agrees to provide, upon request, information about his or her tax residency status to Citigroup during such period. Participant will be responsible for any income tax due, including penalties and interest, arising from any misstatement by Participant regarding such information.

14. Entire Agreement; No Right to Employment. The Plan, the Prospectus and the Agreement constitute the entire understanding between the 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 the 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.

15. Amendment. The Committee may in, its sole discretion, modify, amend, terminate or suspend the Award or the Program at any time, except that no termination, suspension, modification or amendment of the Award or the Program shall (i) cause the Award or the Program to become subject to, or violate, Section 409A of the Code, or (ii) adversely affect Participant's rights with respect to the Award, as determined by the Committee, without Participant's written consent.

16. Compliance with Regulatory Requirements. Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, the Award will be subject to any limitations, adjustments or clawback provisions applicable to Participant to the extent required under (a) the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as amended, and any applicable rules or regulations thereunder, (b) any agreement entered into between the Company and the United States Treasury Department in connection with the Company's participation in TARP or the Exchange Agreement dated June 9, 2009 between the Company and the United States Treasury Department or (c) any policy implemented at any time by the Company in its discretion to (i) comply with any other legal, regulatory or governmental requirements, directions, supervisory comments, guidance or promulgations specifically including but not limited to guidance on remuneration practices or sound incentive compensation practices promulgated by any U.S. or non-U.S. governmental agency or authority, (ii) comply with the listing requirements of any stock exchange on which the Citigroup's common stock is traded or (iii) comply with or enable the Company to qualify for any government loan, subsidy, investment or other program.

17. Arbitration; Conflict; Governing Law. Any disputes related to the 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 the 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 the Agreement, the Agreement shall control. In the event of a conflict between the Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control. The Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (regardless of conflict of laws principles) as to all matters, including, but not limited to, the construction, application, validity and administration of the Program.

18. Disclosure Regarding Use of Personal Information and Participant's Consent.

(a) Definition and Use of "Personal Information."
