CitiFirst Investment Categories

 

 

 

LOGO   LOGO   LOGO
CitiFirst Protection   CitiFirst Performance   CitiFirst Opportunity
Full principal amount due at maturity   Payment due at maturity may be less than the principal amount   Payment due at maturity may be zero
Investments provide for the full principal amount to be due at maturity, subject to the credit risk of the issuer, and are for investors who place a priority on the preservation of principal while looking for a way to potentially outperform cash or traditional fixed income investments   Investments provide for a payment due at maturity, subject to the credit risk of the issuer, that may be less than the principal amount and in some cases may be zero, and are for investors who are seeking the potential for current income and/or growth, in addition to partial or contingent downside protection   Investments provide for a payment at maturity, subject to the credit risk of the issuer, that may be zero and are for investors who are willing to take full market risk in return for either leveraged principal appreciation at a predetermined rate or access to a unique underlying strategy

Equity LinKed Securities

  

 

 

Equity LinKed Securities (“ELKS®”) are CitiFirst Performance investments.

ELKS offer the potential for yield to investors seeking an opportunity to create a laddered income portfolio while diversifying their equity risk. Citi selects underlying stocks from different sectors of the market that investors are familiar with and may want to own.

 

What are Equity LinKed Securities (“ELKS®”)?

 

 

 

n  

ELKS® offer investors a coupon that is higher than both the current dividend yield, if any, of the underlying equity and the yield on a bond with a comparable credit rating and maturity.

 

n  

ELKS® are linked to the performance of an underlying equity and have a downside threshold price. If the underlying equity never crosses this price, investors will receive their principal back at maturity. If the underlying equity crosses this price investors will receive a return on the ELKS® that mirrors the return of the underlying equity. In both cases, investors will receive the coupon payments.

 

n  

ELKS® are not suitable for all investors. Prospective investors should evaluate their financial objectives and tolerance for risk prior to investing in any structured investment. ELKS® are not bank deposits but are senior, unscured debt obligations of Citi. All returns and any principal amount due at maturity are subject to the applicable issuer credit risk. ELKS® are not conventional debt securities. They are complex in nature and the specific terms and conditions will vary for each offering.

Who might be interested in ELKS®?

 

 

 

n  

Current or prospective holders of the underlying equity.

 

n  

Investors with a hold or moderately bullish view of the underlying equity looking to outperform this view.

 

n  

Investors looking to increase the yield on their portfolio.

 

n  

Investors looking for some level of protection from a decline in the underlying equity.

What are the benefits?

 

 

 

n  

ELKS® pay an above-market coupon regardless of the performance of the underlying equity. Because of this higher fixed coupon, ELKS® may outperform the underlying equity in the event the downside threshold price is crossed, subject to the credit risk of the issuer of the ELKS®.

 

n  

If the underlying equity never crosses the downside threshold price, ELKS® return principal at maturity and a final coupon like a fixed income investment, regardless of the performance of the underlying equity, subject to the credit risk of the issuer of the ELKS®.

 

n  

ELKS® typically have a volatility below that of the underlying equity. When ELKS® are substituted for the underlying equity, this can help reduce the volatility of a portfolio.

What are the risks?

 

 

 

n  

ELKS® do not guarantee return of principal at maturity. Investors could receive significantly less than the initial amount invested and investors could lose the whole amount invested.

 

n  

Because the return on ELKS® is generally limited to the coupon payments, ELKS® will underperform a direct investment in the underlying equity if the underlying equity appreciates beyond the coupon yield, except in limited circumstances.

 

n  

ELKS® generally will not be listed on any securities exchange and may not be as liquid as the underlying equity. Thus, ELKS® should be treated as a buy and hold investment. ELKS® are senior debt obligations and all payments are subject to the credit risk of the issuer. For a full description of the risks involved with this type of investment, please review “Key Risk Factors” in the applicable ELKS® offering summary and “Risk Factors Relating to ELKS®” in the applicable ELKS® product supplement.

How do ELKS® work?

 

 

The following terms will be specified for each offering of ELKS®:

 

n  

Underlying Equity:

The stock or ETF share upon which the return of the ELKS® is based.

 

n  

Coupon:

A percentage that indicates investors’ per annum yield on the investment.

 

n  

Downside Threshold Price:

The price of the underlying equity at or below which the return on the investment becomes dependant on the return of the underlying equity and the investment could result in a loss.

n  

Payment at Maturity:

Depends on where the underlying equity trades over the term of the ELKS® and where it is at maturity.

If the downside threshold price is crossed, investors will receive a predetermined number of shares of the underlying equity at maturity (or the cash equivalent if applicable) that will be worth less than the amount of the investment except in limited circumstances.

 

 

The above terms are hypothetical only and not representative of the performance of any particular ELKS®. The terms and conditions will vary for each offering of ELKS® and should be considered before investing.

The amount investors receive at maturity for an ELKS® can

be determined by answering the following questions:

What are some hypothetical examples of ELKS® returns?

 

 

Assume that an investor buys one ELKS® linked to the underlying equity “XYZ” common stock, with a 6-month maturity, a coupon of 10 % per annum, a downside threshold price equal to 80 % of the closing price of the underlying equity on the day the ELKS® were priced for sale, and investor elects to receive cash at maturity in lieu of shares.

Below are select hypothetical return scenarios and are not representative of the performance of any particular investment in ELKS®:

 

LOGO  

Scenario 1:

Did “XYZ” common stock trade below the downside threshold price at any time over the term of the ELKS®? No.

 

LOGO

LOGO  

Scenario 2:

Did “XYZ” common stock trade below the downside threshold price at any time over the term of the ELKS®? Yes.

Scenario 3:

Did “XYZ” common stock trade below the downside threshold price at any time over the term of the ELKS®? Yes.

How do ELKS® compare to a direct investment in the underlying equity?

 

Assuming any appreciation or depreciation in the performance of the underying at maturity, ELKS® will outperform the underlying equity in all scenarios except when the underlying equity has not crossed the downside threshold price and at maturity has appreciated beyond the yield of the coupon.

If the underlying equity trades below the downside threshold price, ELKS® will have the same return of the underlying equity plus the coupon payments.

 

LOGO

Note: the above analysis does not include the effect of dividends on the return of the underlying equity nor is it meant to be a complete analysis of comparable investments. For ELKS® that are linked to an underlying equity, if the effects of dividends were included, the performance of the ELKS® would be negatively affected.

Equity LinKed Securities (“ELKS®”) are consistently available as

part of our family of CitiFirst investment offerings.

Overview of Key Benefits

and Risks of CitiFirst Investments

 

Benefits

 

n  

Investors can access investments linked to a variety of underlying assets or indices, such as domestic and foreign indices, exchange – traded funds, commodities, foreign-exchange, interest rates, equities, or a combination thereof.

 

n  

Structured investments can offer unique risk/ return profiles to match investment objectives, such as the amount of principal due at maturity, periodic income, and enhanced returns.

Risks

 

n  

The risks below are not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risks associated with a particular CitiFirst Structured Investment offering. Before you invest in any CitiFirst Structured Investment you should thoroughly review the particular investment’s offering document(s) and related material(s) for a comprehensive description of the risks and considerations associated with the particular investment.

 

n  

Potential for Loss

n  The terms of certain investments provide that the full principal amount is due at maturity, subject to the issuer credit risk. However, if an investor sells or redeems such investment prior to maturity, the investor may receive an amount less than his/her original investment.

n   The terms of certain investments provide that the payment due at maturity could be significantly less than the full principal amount and, for certain investments, could be zero. In these cases, an investor may receive an amount significantly less than his/her original investment and may receive nothing at maturity of the investment.

 

n  

Appreciation May Be Limited – Depending on the investment, an investor’s appreciation may be limited by a maximum amount payable or by the extent to which the return reflects the performance of the underlying asset or index.

 

n  

Issuer Credit Risk – All payments on CitiFirst Structured Investments are dependent on the applicable issuer’s ability to pay all amounts due on these investments including any principal due at maturity and therefore investors are subject to the credit risk of the issuer.

n  

Secondary Market – There may be little or no secondary market for a particular investment. If the applicable offering document(s) so specifies, the issuer may apply to list an investment on a securities exchange, but it is not possible to predict whether any investment will meet the listing requirements of that particular exchange, or if listed, whether any secondary market will exist.

 

n  

Resale Value of a CitiFirst Structured Investment May be Lower than Your Initial Investment – Due to, among other things, the changes in the price of and dividend yield on the underlying asset, interest rates, the earnings performance of the issuer of the underlying asset, the issuer of the CitiFirst Structured Investment’s perceived creditworthiness, the investment may trade, if at all, at prices below its initial issue price and an investor could receive substantially less than the amount of his/her original investment upon any resale of the investment.

 

n  

Volatility of the Underlying Asset or Index – Depending on the investment, the amount you receive at maturity could depend on the price or value of the underlying asset or index during the term of the trade as well as where the price or value of the underlying asset or index is at maturity; thus, the volatility of the underlying asset or index, which is the term used to describe the size and frequency of market fluctuations in the price or value of the underlying asset or index, may result in an investor receiving an amount less than he/she would otherwise receive.

 

n  

Potential for Lower Comparable Yield – The effective yield on any investment may be less than that which would be payable on a conventional fixed-rate debt security of the same issuer with comparable maturity.

 

n  

Affiliate Research Reports and Commentary – Affiliates of the particular issuer may publish research reports or otherwise express opinions or provide recommendations from time to time regarding the underlying asset or index which may influence the price or value of the underlying asset or index and, therefore, the value of the investment. Further, any research, opinion or recommendation expressed within such research reports may not be consistent with purchasing, holding or selling the investment.

 

n  

The United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of Structured Investments are

   

Uncertain – No statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly addresses the characterization of structured investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The tax treatment of a structured investment may be very different than that of its underlying asset. As a result, significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences and treatment of an investment are not certain. The offering document(s) for each structured investment contains tax conclusions and discussions about the expected U.S. federal income tax consequences and treatment of the related structured investment. However, no ruling is being requested from the Internal Revenue Service with respect to any structured investment and no assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service will agree with the tax conclusions and treatment expressed within the offering document(s) of a particular structured investment. Citigroup Inc., its affiliates, and employees do not provide tax or legal advice. Investors should consult with their own professional advisor(s) on such matters before investing in any structured investment.

 

n  

Fees and Conflicts – The issuer of a structured investment and its affiliates may play a variety of roles in connection with the investment, including acting as calculation agent and hedging the issuer’s obligations under the investment. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the affiliates of the issuer may be adverse to the interest of the investor.

Additional Considerations

 

Please note that the information contained in this brochure is current as of the date indicated and is not intended to be a complete description of the terms, risks and benefits associated with any particular structured investment. Therefore, all of the information set forth herein is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information provided in the offering documents(s) and related material for the respective structured investment.

The structured investments discussed within this brochure are not suitable for all investors. Prospective investors should evaluate their financial objectives and tolerance for risk prior to investing in any structured investment.

Tax Disclosure

Citigroup Inc., its affiliates and employees do not provide tax or legal advice. To the extent that this brochure or any offering document(s) concerns tax matters, it is not intended to be used and cannot be used by a taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be imposed by law. Any such taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

ERISA and IRA Purchase Considerations

Employee benefit plans subject to ERISA, entities the assets of which are deemed to constitute the assets of such plans, governmental or other plans subject to laws substantially similar to ERISA and retirement accounts (including Keogh, SEP and SIMPLE plans, individual retirement accounts and individual retirement annuities) are permitted to purchase structured investments as long as either (A) (1) no Citi affiliate or employee is a fiduciary to such plan or retirement account that has or exercises any discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of such plan or retirement account used to purchase the structured investments or renders investment advice with respect to those assets, and (2) such plan or retirement account is paying no more than adequate consideration for the structured investments or (B) its acquisition and holding of the structured in is not prohibited by any such provisions or laws or is exempt from any such prohibition.

However, individual retirement accounts, individual retirement annuities and Keogh plans, as well as employee benefit plans that permit participants to direct the investment of their accounts, will not be permitted to purchase or hold the structured investments if the account, plan or annuity is for the benefit of an employee of Citi or a family member and the employee receives any compensation (such as, for example, an addition to bonus) based on

the purchase of structured investments by the account, plan or annuity. You should refer to the section “ERISA Matters” in the applicable offering document(s) for more information.
