(2)For the Cumulative TBVPS metric, if Cumulative TBVPS is between $___ and $___, between $___ and $___, or between $___ and $___ the number of PSUs earned by Participant in respect of the Cumulative TBVPS metric will be determined by straight-line interpolation between the applicable two points.

(3)For Relative Weighted Average RoTCE Performance, if Citigroup’s Relative Weighted Average RoTCE Performance is between the thresholds in the table in Subsection 2(b)(iv) below, the number of PSUs earned by Participant based on the Weighted Average RoTCE metric will be determined by straight-line interpolation.

(iv)    Relative Weighted Average RoTCE Performance. After the end of the Performance Period, the Committee will rank each member of the Comparison Group according to Weighted Average RoTCE, and Citigroup’s Weighted Average RoTCE relative to the Weighted Average RoTCE of members of the Comparison Group will determine the percentage of PSUs earned under the Weighted Average RoTCE metric, as follows:

Relative Weighted Average RoTCE Performance of CitigroupPSUs Earned Based
on Relative Weighted Average RoTCE Performance
0 Percentile___%
25th Percentile
___%

that Citigroup’s TSR, calculated in accordance with Subsection 2(c)(i) below, for the Performance Period is negative, the number of PSUs earned by Participant will not exceed the number of PSUs in Participant’s Target Award shown on the Award Summary.

    (i)    For purposes of Subsection 2(c), “TSR” for Citigroup will be expressed as a percentage determined by dividing: (A) (1) the average of the closing prices on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on the twenty (20) trading days ending on the last day in the Performance Period of shares of Citigroup common stock plus (2) the amount of the “Adjusted Value of Reinvested Dividends of Citigroup common stock” (as defined below), minus (3) the average of the closing prices on the NYSE on the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the first day of the Performance Period, by (B) the average of the closing prices on the NYSE on the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the first day of the Performance Period.

(d)    Conversion of Vested Earned PSUs to Cash.2 After the end of the Performance Period, the Committee will determine the percentage of the Target Award PSUs that have been earned by the Participant during the Performance Period pursuant to Subsection 2(b). The Committee will then multiply the percentage determined pursuant to the performance schedule in Subsection 2(b) by the allocable number of Target Award PSUs (the “Earned Award”), to derive a number of PSUs constituting the Earned Award. After Participant’s Scheduled Vesting Date, the Committee will determine the extent to which Participant has vested in his or her Earned Award, determined after applying the provisions of Section 3 and Section 4 hereof. On or as soon as administratively practicable after the Award Payment Date, Participant will receive a cash payment equal to the number of PSUs constituting the Earned Award multiplied by the average of the closing prices of Citigroup common stock on the NYSE for the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the Scheduled Vesting Date.

Each interpretation, determination or other action made or taken by the Committee will be final and binding on all persons. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may delegate to one or more employees of the Company some or all of its authority over the administration of the Award. Such delegation need not be in writing. The authority set forth in this Subsection 2(f), to the extent it may be different from the authorities of the Committee set forth in the DIRAP or the SIP, shall be deemed to be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any such authorities.

3.Cancelation of Award in Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(y)    the Committee may suspend the settlement of the Award, or any portion thereof, in connection with an investigation or review of the Participant or any event or circumstance that may give rise to a failure of a Settlement Condition to be satisfied or other similar circumstance, in each such case as determined by the Committee, in which case the Committee shall determine as soon as practicable following the completion of such investigation or review whether the Award, to the extent settlement was suspended, is eligible for settlement or shall be canceled.

The Settlement Conditions do not change while the Award is outstanding, regardless of Participant’s status as an active or terminated employee or other change in employment status, or because Participant transfers employment within the Company.

(a)Service-Based Settlement Condition. Settlement of each portion of the Award is conditioned on Participant’s continuous employment with the Company up to and including the Scheduled Vesting Date, unless (i) Participant entered into a written agreement with the Company providing otherwise, or (ii) as otherwise provided in Section 4 hereof.
(b)Additional Settlement Condition.

engaged in “gross misconduct” as defined in Subsection 4(e) hereof, it being understood that such definition shall be applied regardless of whether the Company knows of such conduct, or the facts giving rise thereto, prior to the termination of Participant’s employment with the Company or whether Participant’s termination of employment relates to such conduct or facts and (y) the Participant not having materially breached any post-employment covenant set forth in Section 5 hereof.
(c)Additional Settlement Condition. Settlement of each portion of the Award is conditioned on (x) the Committee not having determined that (1)  Participant engaged in behavior (i) constituting misconduct; (ii) constituting the exercise of materially imprudent judgment that caused harm to any of the Company’s business operations; or (iii) that resulted or could result in regulatory sanctions (whether or not formalized) to the Company and/or the Participant; or (2) Participant failed to properly supervise or monitor individuals engaging in, or to properly escalate, in accordance with the Company’s policies, behavior (i) constituting misconduct; (ii) constituting the exercise of materially imprudent judgment that caused harm to any of the Company’s business operations; or (iii) that resulted or could result in regulatory sanctions (whether or not formalized) to the Company and/or the Participant.

Without limiting the generality of Section 9, the Committee will have the exclusive discretionary authority to determine and define “significant responsibility,” “material adverse outcome” and “material violation of any risk limits.”

4.Termination of Employment and Other Changes in Status. Except as provided in Section 3(a)(i), if Participant’s employment with the Company terminates or is interrupted, or if Participant’s status changes under the circumstances described below, Participant’s rights with respect to the Award will be affected as provided in this Section 4.

For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of employment by Participant that is claimed to be a “constructive discharge” (or similar claim) will be treated as a voluntary termination of employment, unless otherwise required by law.

    (b)     Disability. The Award will continue to be settled on schedule subject to all other provisions of this Agreement during Participant’s approved disability leave pursuant to a Company disability policy. If Participant’s approved disability leave ends in a termination of Participant’s employment by the Company because Participant can no longer perform the essential elements of his or her job, the outstanding portion of the Award will continue to be settled on schedule subject to all other provisions of this Agreement.

    (c)     Leave of Absence. The Award will continue to be settled on schedule subject to all other provisions of this Agreement during a leave of absence that is approved by management of Participant’s business unit and is taken in accordance with applicable Company policy (a “leave of absence”).

If Participant satisfies the conditions of Subsection 4(i) hereof during a leave of absence, any outstanding portion of the Award will continue to be settled on schedule, subject to Subsection 4(i) hereof.

    (d)     Death. If Participant dies on or prior to the Scheduled Vesting Date, the Award will be paid to Participant’s estate after the Earned Award has been determined, subject to the conditions of Section 7.

    (e)     Involuntary Termination for Gross Misconduct. If the Company terminates Participant’s employment because of Participant’s “gross misconduct” (as defined below), or if the Committee determines following termination of Participant’s employment that the Participant’s employment could have been terminated for gross misconduct, settlement of any portion of the Award will cease on the date Participant’s employment is so terminated and Participant will have no further rights of any kind with respect to the Award as of such date.

(f)     Involuntary Termination Other than for Gross Misconduct. If Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company involuntarily other than for gross misconduct, including under a reduction in force or job discontinuance program, the outstanding portion of the Award will continue to be settled on schedule subject to all other provisions of this Agreement.

(g)     Transfer to a Non-Controlled Group Entity. If (1) Participant’s employment is transferred by the Company to an entity that is not, at the time of or immediately following such
9
                


transfer, a member of the “controlled group” of Citigroup (as defined below), in connection with a spin-off, sale, joint venture or other similar transaction or circumstance and (2) in connection therewith the Company agrees to remain responsible for payment of the Award on the terms provided herein, then the outstanding portion of the Award will continue to be settled on schedule, subject to all other provisions of this Agreement, and thereafter all references in this Section 4 will be deemed to refer to employment with such entity. For purposes of this Agreement, “controlled group” has the meaning set forth in the first sentence of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)(3).

(h)     Voluntary Resignation to Pursue Alternative Career. If Participant has not met the conditions of Subsection 4(i) hereof, and Participant voluntarily resigns from his or her employment with the Company to work in a full-time paid career (i) in government service, (ii) for a bona fide charitable institution, or (iii) as a teacher at a bona fide educational institution, and, if applicable, satisfies any additional requirements that may be imposed by management in accordance with the then applicable guidelines adopted for the purposes of administering this provision (an “alternative career”), the outstanding portion of the Award will continue to be settled on schedule subject to all other provisions of this Agreement and the applicable guidelines (or until such earlier date on which Subsection 4(d) hereof applies); provided that in the event of a resignation described in Clause 4(h)(ii) or (iii) hereof, Participant remains continuously employed in the alternative career (or a new alternative career) until the Scheduled Vesting Date and Participant provides by the Scheduled Vesting Date, if requested by the Company, a written certification of compliance with this provision, in a form satisfactory to the Committee. If an acceptable certification is not provided by the Scheduled Vesting Date, the Award will be canceled.
    (i)     Satisfying the “Rule of 60.”

(i)    Except as provided in Subsection 4(i)(ii) and (iii) hereof, if Participant (1) meets the Rule of 60 (as defined below), and (2) is not, at any time up to Scheduled Vesting Date (or until such earlier date on which Subsection 4(d) hereof applies), employed, directly or indirectly, by a Significant Competitor of the Company (as defined in Subsection 4(j) hereof), the outstanding portion of the Award will continue to be settled on schedule subject to all other provisions of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, Participant will meet the Rule of 60 if Participant is (A) at least age 50 and has completed at least five full years of service with the Company and Participant’s age plus the number of full years of service with the Company equals at least 60, or (B) under age 50, but has completed at least 20 full years of service with the Company and Participant’s age plus the number of full years of service with the Company equals at least 60 (the “Rule of 60”). Participant’s age and years of service will each be rounded down to the nearest whole number when determining whether the Rule of 60 has been attained.

(ii)    If at the time of Participant’s voluntary termination with the Company, Participant satisfies the requirements of Subsection 4(i)(i)(1)hereof and (1) Participant’s work location is in Massachusetts or (2) Participant is a Massachusetts resident, Participant will be required to sign a separation agreement, in connection with Participant’s termination of employment that contains the Significant Competitor provision described in Subsection 4(j) hereof.

(iii)    If at the time of Participant’s voluntary termination with the Company, Participant satisfies the requirements of Subsection 4(j)(i)(1) hereof and (1) Participant’s work location is in California or (2) Participant is a California resident, Subsection 4(j)(i)(2) shall not apply and the outstanding portion of Participant’s Award will continue to be settled on schedule subject to all other provisions of this Agreement notwithstanding any employment referred to therein.

    (j)    Definition of “Significant Competitor;” Certification of Compliance.

(i)    For purposes of this Agreement, a “Significant Competitor” of the Company means any company or other entity designated by the Committee as such and included on a list of Significant Competitors that will be made available to Participant and that may be updated by the Company from time to time in its discretion. Employment by a Significant Competitor includes service on a board of directors or similar governing body of any Significant Competitor (including subsidiaries or affiliates) that is also listed in the full “Compensation Peer Group” in Citigroup’s most recent annual Proxy Statement. For purposes of this Subsection 4(j), “Company" means Citigroup and any of its subsidiaries.

(ii)    Whenever the Award continues to be settled pursuant to Subsection 4(i) hereof following a termination of employment, the settlement of the Award will be conditioned upon Participant’s providing by the Scheduled Vesting Date, if requested by the Company, a written certification that Participant has complied with the terms and conditions of Subsection 4(i) hereof in a form satisfactory to the Company. The list of Significant Competitors in effect at the time Participant terminates employment with the Company and the companies listed in the full “Compensation Peer Group” in Citigroup’s most recent annual Proxy Statement at the time Participant terminates employment with the Company will apply to such certification. If an acceptable certification is not provided by the Scheduled Vesting Date, settlement of the Award will cease as of the date that is immediately prior to such Scheduled Vesting Date, the Award will be canceled, and Participant will have no further rights of any kind with respect to such Award.

5.Post-Employment Covenants.
(a)Solicitation of Employees and Clients. If Participant is subject to the Employment Termination Notice and Nonsolicitation Policy for U.S. Employees (“Notice Policy”), to the extent permitted by law, Participant agrees to the nonsolicitation obligation described in the Notice Policy. If Participant is not subject to the Notice Policy then for the one-year period following the date Participant’s employment with the Company terminates, to the extent permitted by law, Participant agrees that he or she will not (1) engage in any conduct, either individually or in concert with a third party, which, directly or indirectly, causes or attempts to cause any employee to leave the employment of the Company regardless of whether the solicitation for employment originates from the Company employee, or hire, or participate directly or indirectly in the hiring of, on his or her own behalf or on behalf of another person, any person who is or, during the preceding six months was, an employee of the Company, or (2) directly or indirectly, induce or otherwise counsel, advise, encourage or solicit, including through the use of social media, any client of the Company whom Participant serviced or had substantial contact with during his or her employment to terminate its relationship with the Company or to transfer assets away from or otherwise reduce its business with the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5(a), shall not apply if Participant’s work location is in California
11

(b)Cooperation. Upon reasonable request, the Participant shall make himself or herself available to the Company to furnish full and truthful information concerning any event which took place during Participant’s employment. Upon reasonable request, as deemed necessary by the Company, the Participant shall make himself or herself available to the Company to furnish full and truthful consultations concerning any potential or actual litigation. Participant shall furnish the information as soon as is practical after a request from the Company is received. The Company shall reimburse Participant for the reasonable cost of all Participant’s travel, lodging, meals and any loss of compensation suffered by Participant from his current employer as a result of time spent furnishing information.

6.Settlement and Transferability.
(a)If all applicable conditions to settlement of any portion of the Award have been satisfied as of the Scheduled Vesting Date, the Award will be settled through payment or distribution of cash as soon thereafter as is administratively practicable, except as may be provided elsewhere in this Agreement, including without limitation clause (y) in the first sentence of Section 3 hereof (a “Delayed Settlement”). In all circumstances, settlement is subject to receipt by the Company of the information necessary to make required tax payments and submission of appropriate documentation of compliance.
(b)No portion of 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 will be subject to the debts, contracts or engagements of Participant or his or her successors in interest or will 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 will be null and void, of no effect, and not binding on the Company in any way. Participant agrees that any purported transfer will be null and void, and will constitute a breach of this Agreement causing damage to the Company for which the remedy will be cancelation of the Award. During Participant’s lifetime, all rights with respect to the Award will be exercisable only by Participant, and any and all payments in respect of the Award will be to Participant only. The Company will be under no obligation to entertain, investigate, respect, preserve, protect or enforce any actual or purported rights or interests asserted by any creditor of Participant or any other third party in the Award, and Participant agrees to take all reasonable measures to protect the Company against any such claims being asserted in respect of the Award and to reimburse the Company for any and all reasonable expenses it incurs defending against or complying with any such third-party claims if Participant could have reasonably acted to prevent such claims from being asserted against the Company.
(c)Citigroup may assign the legal obligation to pay Participant’s vested Earned Award to Participant’s employer without the consent of Participant.

settlement of such portion was, in fact, not satisfied (whether by reason of events occurring prior to, on or after any such Scheduled Vesting Date), Participant is obligated upon demand, to pay to Citigroup (i) any amount paid to Participant in connection with such settlement and (ii) the gross amount paid to any other person in connection with such settlement, in each case, without reduction for any cash withheld to satisfy withholding tax or other obligations in connection with such settlement. No portion of the Award shall be deemed to have been fully earned for any purpose unless and until the rights of Citigroup to claw back such portion under this Subsection 7(a) have lapsed.

(b)Right of Set-Off. Participant agrees that the Company may, to the extent determined by the Committee to be permitted by applicable law and consistent with the requirements to avoid tax under Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (x) retain for itself funds or securities otherwise payable to Participant pursuant to the Award or any award under any award program administered by the Company to offset (i) 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; or (ii) any outstanding amounts (including, without limitation, travel and entertainment or advance account balances, loans, clawback or other repayment obligations under this Agreement or any award agreement, or any obligations pursuant to a tax-equalization or housing allowance policy or other expatriate benefit) that Participant owes the Company or its affiliates and (y) if Participant recovers any amount in the nature of severance pay or compensation for hypothetical or potential future services in connection with any legal claim or action alleging violation of law relating to Participant’s employment or termination thereof, whether by reason of a decision or settlement of such claim, reduce the amount to be paid in connection with the settlement of the Award following the termination of Participant’s employment, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the pre-tax amount required to be paid for the Participant’s account (including legal fees) in connection with such claim or action. The Company may not retain any funds or securities described in Clause 7(b)(x) hereof, or set-off obligations or liabilities described in such Clause, as described above, until such time as they would otherwise be distributable or payable to Participant in accordance with the applicable award terms. Only after-tax amounts will be applied to set-off any such obligations and liabilities and Participant will remain liable to pay any amounts that are not thereby satisfied in full.

(c)Dodd-Frank Clawback Provisions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Participant is a “Covered Individual,” as defined in the Citigroup Inc. Dodd-Frank Clawback Provisions (the “Clawback Provisions”), Participant’s Award and any other compensation paid or payable to Participant pursuant to this Agreement may be subject to recovery by the Company if the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that Participant received “Erroneously Awarded Compensation,” as defined by the Clawback Provisions. Furthermore, if Participant is a Covered Individual on the Award Date, or becomes a Covered Individual at any time while this Award is outstanding, then in exchange for the benefits provided by this Award, Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Clawback Provisions shall be applicable to any component of the Participant’s DIRAP awards that would otherwise be subject to recovery pursuant to the Clawback Provisions.

8.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 all documents that Citigroup may be required to deliver (including, but not limited to, the Agreement and all other forms or communications) in connection with the Award and any other
13
                


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 (x) a Company service provider such as DocuSign, or (y) a Company e-mail system or by reference to a location on a Company intranet or secure internet site to which Participant has access.

9.Plan Administration, Determinations and Interpretations. The Committee has sole, final and binding exclusive discretionary authority to (x) make findings of fact, interpretations, calculations, conclusions and other determinations under or with respect to the Agreement or any other communication, relating in any way to the Award and (y) establish and operationalize administrative procedures to implement the terms of the Award.

10.Adjustments to Awards.
(a)    Capital Structure. In the event of any change in the capitalization of Citigroup on account of (i) an extraordinary dividend, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar equity restructuring; or (ii) a combination or exchange of equity securities, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reorganization, divestiture, acquisition or distribution (other than ordinary cash dividends) of assets to stockholders, or other similar event affecting the capitalization of Citigroup, to the extent necessary to prevent the enlargement or diminution of the rights of Participant, the Committee will make appropriate equitable adjustments to the Award (including the determination of Weighted Average RoTCE, RoTCE, and Cumulative TBVPS), which adjustments will not require the consent of Participant.

    (b)    Equitable Adjustments. If an event, or series of similar or related events, occurs with respect to the Company that renders, in the determination of the Committee, either or both of the performance measures set forth in Section 2(b) to no longer be appropriate, then the Committee will make appropriate equitable adjustments to the Award (including the determination of Weighted Average RoTCE, RoTCE and Cumulative TBVPS) to the extent necessary to prevent the enlargement or diminution of the rights of Participant. In the event of an unusual or non-recurring event affecting Weighted Average RoTCE, RoTCE, or Cumulative TBVPS or a change in applicable tax laws or accounting principles, the Committee will make appropriate equitable adjustments to the Award (including the determination of Weighted Average RoTCE, RoTCE and Cumulative TBVPS), to the extent necessary to prevent the enlargement or diminution of the rights of Participant, which adjustments will not require the consent of Participant.

(c)    Compliance Modifications. The Committee retains the right to modify the Award if required to comply with applicable law, regulation, or regulatory guidance (including applicable tax law) without the consent of Participant. Citigroup will furnish or make available to Participant a written notice of any modification through a brochure supplement or otherwise, which notice will specify the effective date of such modification. Any other adverse modification not elsewhere described in this Agreement will not be effective without Participant’s written consent.

(d)    Comparison Group. If, during the Performance Period, one or more companies in the Comparison Group merges, engages in a spin-off or otherwise experiences a material change in its business activities or it or one of its primary businesses shall terminate or cease due to receivership, bankruptcy, sale, or otherwise, then the Committee shall eliminate such
14
                


company from the Comparison Group or make other adjustments to the Comparison Group, such as adding an acquirer or a new company to the Comparison Group, to the extent necessary to prevent the enlargement or diminution of the rights of Participants, with any such changes having effect for purposes of all calculations hereunder. In any of these events, the approach to determining percentiles shall also be equitably adjusted by the Committee, to the extent necessary to prevent the enlargement or diminution of the rights of Participants.

(e)    Adverse Consequences. Neither the Committee nor Citigroup will be liable to Participant for any additional personal tax or other adverse consequences of any adjustments that are made to the Award.

11.Taxes and Tax Residency Status.
(a)    Compliance. By accepting the Award, Participant agrees to pay all applicable taxes (or hypothetical tax if Participant is subject to tax equalization or tax protection pursuant to a Citigroup Expatriate policy) and to file all required tax returns in all jurisdictions where Participant is subject to tax and/or an income tax filing requirement, without regard to the amount withheld or reported. 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 travel and workdays outside of his or her country of income tax residency from the date of the Award until the settlement of the Award. Participant also agrees to provide, upon request, complete and accurate information about his or her tax residency status to Citigroup during such periods, and confirmation of his or her status as a (i) U.S. citizen, (ii) holder of a U.S. green card, or (iii) citizen or legal resident of a country other than the U.S. Participant will be responsible for any tax due, including penalties and interest, arising from any misstatement by Participant regarding such information. The Award will be subject to cancelation if Participant fails to make any such required payment.

(b)    Withholding. To the extent the Company is required to withhold tax in any jurisdiction upon the settlement of the Award or at such times as otherwise may be required in connection with the Award, Participant acknowledges that the Company may (but is not required to) provide Participant alternative methods of paying the Company the amount due to the appropriate tax authorities (or to the Company, in the case of hypothetical tax), as determined by the Committee. If no method of tax withholding is specified at or prior to the time any tax (or hypothetical tax) is due on the Award, or if Participant does not make a timely election, the Company will withhold the applicable amount from the payment made to Participant to fund any or any portion of tax that is required by law to be withheld. If Participant is a current or former Citigroup Expatriate subject to tax equalization, Participant agrees to promptly pay to the Company, in cash (or by any other means acceptable to the Committee), the excess of the amount of hypothetical tax due over the tax withheld with respect to the Award. Participant agrees that the Committee may require that some or all of the tax (or hypothetical tax) withholding obligations in connection with the Award must be satisfied in cash only, that timely payment of such amounts when due will be considered a condition to settlement of the Award, and that if the required amounts are not timely remitted to the Company, the Award may be canceled.

12.Entire Agreement; No Right to Employment. The Legal Documents set forth the entire understanding between the Company and Participant regarding the Award and supersede
15
                


all other 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 or in any incentive plan or program documents will 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.

13.Compliance with Regulatory Requirements. The Award may be subject to the applicable law (including tax laws) and regulatory guidance in multiple jurisdictions, and will be administered and interpreted consistently with such law and regulatory guidance, including but not limited to Section 409A and Section 457A of the Code.

14.Section 409A and Section 457A Compliance.
(a)    Tax Liability. Participant understands that as a result of Section 409A and/or Section 457A of the Code, if Participant is a U.S. taxpayer he or she could be subject to adverse tax consequences if the Award or the plans and program documents are not administered in accordance with the requirements to avoid tax under Section 409A or Section 457A. Participant further understands that if Participant is a U.S. taxpayer, and the Award is considered to be a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” and Participant’s employer is considered to be a “nonqualified entity” (as such terms are defined in Section 409A and/or Section 457A of the Code), Participant could be subject to accelerated income recognition or other adverse tax consequences with respect to all or a portion of the Award if Citigroup fails to modify the Award. Participant acknowledges that there is no guarantee that the Award, or any amendment or modification thereto, will successfully avoid unintended tax consequences to Participant and that the Company does not accept any liability therefor.

(b)    Specified Employees. If the Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, this Agreement may not be amended, nor may the Award be administered, to provide for any payment of the Award to occur upon any event that would constitute a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) if Participant is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i)(1)) at the time of such Participant’s “separation from service,” unless it is provided that the distribution or payment will not be made until the date which is six months from such “separation from service,” or, if earlier, the date of Participant’s death and that during such six-month deferral period, Participant will not be entitled to interest, notional interest, dividends, dividend equivalents, or any compensation for any loss in market value or otherwise which occurs with respect to the Award during such deferral period.

(c)    Delayed Settlement. If the Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code and there is a Delayed Settlement that extends beyond December 31 of the year in which the Award Payment Date occurs, unless Participant timely complies with the notification and enforcement provisions of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(g), the Company has full and sole discretionary authority to modify the Award in order to avoid a violation of Section 409A of the Code.

15.Arbitration; Conflict; Governing Law; Severability.
(a)    Arbitration. Any and all disputes, claims or controversies related to or arising out of the Award or the Legal Documents, including, without limitation, any claim that an Award, in whole or in part, should have been, but was not made, or that this Agreement or any of the
16
                


Legal Documents is void, voidable, invalid, unlawful or unenforceable (each a “Dispute”), will be finally and conclusively resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Company’s arbitration policies, as in effect from time to time. In the absence of a Company arbitration policy that is applicable to you or your Award and your work location is outside of the United States at the time of the commencement of a Dispute, you irrevocably agree that (1) any such Dispute will be finally and conclusively resolved on an individual basis by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its International Dispute Resolution Procedures in effect at the time of commencement of any such arbitration (collectively, the “Rules”), except as such Rules are otherwise modified or expanded as set forth in Citi’s Arbitration Policy, which is available on Citi For You, (2) the place of such arbitration shall be New York, New York, United States of America, and (3) any claim or dispute concerning the interpretation, application or validity of this provision shall be heard and decided exclusively by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Southern District”), and by any court having appellate jurisdiction over the Southern District, and in the event that the Southern District lacks jurisdiction over the subject matter of any such action or proceeding, the sole alternative forum for any such action or proceeding shall be the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York

(b)    Conflict. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the DIRAP plan document, this Agreement will control.

(c)    Governing Law. This Agreement will 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 Company’s incentive award programs.

(d)    Severability. Except as otherwise provided below, Participant understands and acknowledges that the terms and conditions set forth herein, including without limitation Sections 3 through 7 hereof, are included herein for the purpose of ensuring sound incentive compensation practices. Therefore, the terms of this Agreement are intended not to be severable, so that if any provision of this Agreement, including without limitation any provision of Sections 3 through 7 hereof, is held void, unlawful, or unenforceable under any applicable statute or other controlling law (1) the remainder of this Agreement, including in particular but without limitation the obligations of the Company in respect of settlement of the Award, will be invalidated and deemed to be unenforceable and (2) any amount previously paid or distributed in settlement of the Award shall be considered to have been distributed in error and Participant shall repay or return such payment or distribution in accordance with Section 7 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the arbitration agreement set out in Subsection 15(a) hereof is a separate and severable contract between them and that any dispute as to the enforceability or validity of this arbitration agreement, or as to the arbitrability of arbitral jurisdiction over any claim, shall be heard and decided by the arbitrators, and not by any court, and that this arbitration agreement shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement, (b) if only the arbitration provision set forth in Subsection 15(a) is held to be unenforceable, then Subsection 15(a) shall be severable from the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
