New York, New York

Dear Brad:

This Separation Agreement (together with any Exhibits referenced herein, the “Agreement”) sets forth the total payments and benefits that you are eligible to receive in connection with your separation of employment from Citibank, N.A. (together, as applicable, with its parent, subsidiaries and affiliates, and as further defined herein, “Citi”) provided that you sign this Agreement, do not revoke it during the Revocation Period (as defined in Paragraph 17 below), and materially comply with its terms.

1.Termination Date, Separation Pay, and Other Payments and Benefits.

(a)From the date of this Agreement through December 31, 2020 (“Transition Period”), you will continue to receive regular salary payments at your current annual base salary rate (less applicable taxes, withholdings, and deductions) and previously elected benefits. Salary payments will be made on the regular payroll dates established by Citi during this period. During the Transition Period, you agree to facilitate the transition of your regular responsibilities and be available for consultation as needed. As of close of business on the last day of the Transition Period, you will be relieved of all job responsibilities, and your signing authority will end, as will your service as an officer, director or member of Citigroup Inc., its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, and all other company-related entities, boards or committees. If requested, you will tender appropriate letter(s) of resignation.

(b)From January 1, 2021 through March 16, 2021 (“Notice Period”), you will continue to receive regular salary continuation payments at your current annual base salary rate (less applicable taxes, withholdings, and deductions) and previously elected benefits. Salary payments will be made on the regular payroll dates established by Citi during this period. The Notice Period and Transition Period satisfy any notice obligations you are owed under Citi policy or applicable law.

(c)Except as otherwise provided below, your employment will terminate at the close of business on March 16, 2021 (“Termination Date”).

(d)You will receive a lump sum payment in the amount of $230,769.23 (less applicable taxes, withholdings, and deductions), representing 24 weeks’ pay at your current annual base salary rate (the “Separation Pay”). This payment will be made in accordance with Paragraph 14 below.

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

a.If you sign this Agreement and Exhibit A and you do not revoke the Agreement during the applicable Revocation Period (as defined below), and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, you will receive a discretionary incentive and retention award (“DIRA”) for performance year 2020 with a pre-tax nominal value of $5,420,997.57. Assuming satisfaction of the preceding sentence, 40% of the DIRA will be paid in the form of a cash bonus (the “Initial Payment”), and the remaining 60% of the DIRA will be awarded in the form of a deferred cash award pursuant to Citi’s Deferred Cash Award Plan (“DCAP”) (the award, the “DCAP Award”). The DCAP Award will vest in four equal annual installments of

$813,149.636 on each January 20 of 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025, as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions of the DCAP award agreement. The grant of your DCAP Award is subject to your execution of the applicable award agreement, which is attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement. The DIRA will be delivered in accordance with Paragraph 14 below.

b.You will receive payment (less applicable taxes, withholdings, and deductions) for any unused planned time off that you earned through your Termination Date pursuant to applicable policy. This payment will be made as soon as administratively practical following your Termination Date.

c.Any outstanding award made to you pursuant to a discretionary incentive and retention plan or program, including Performance Share Units (“PSU”s), a stock award or stock option grant made to you pursuant to Citi’s Capital Accumulation Plan (“CAP”), a deferred cash award made to you pursuant to DCAP, and, if applicable, your participation interest in any limited partnership or other employee investment plan, shall be treated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable program or plan and the applicable award or other documentation relating thereto applicable to an Involuntary Termination Other than for Gross Misconduct, subject to the performance-based vesting conditions, clawback provisions, and other terms and conditions of the underlying award. Please consult the relevant prospectus, prospectus supplement, brochure, or other plan or award documents for the controlling terms. You may also contact Edith Ginsberg at ###-###-####, or ConnectOne at ###-###-#### and select option 5, or you may call the Citi Equity Compensation Customer Service Department at ###-###-#### or (877) 711-2433. If you participate in a limited partnership or other employee investment plan, you may call ###-###-#### or ###-###-#### and select option 2.

As defined above and for purposes of this Paragraph 1(g), your Termination Date shall be the last day of your Notice Period. Please note that to the extent you have any stock option awards, those awards have expiration dates that may vary based on the date of the award.

Your awards that continue to vest following your Termination Date may become subject to income or payroll taxes in one or more jurisdictions after your Termination Date. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for paying any tax amounts due as a condition to receiving distributions or payments of your

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

outstanding stock or deferred cash awards. If any payroll taxes become due prior to the distribution or payment of any portion of your outstanding awards, you will receive an invoice from Citi for the amount of the taxes you owe in respect of such awards. If this amount is not paid in full by the due date specified in the invoice, all or a portion of your outstanding awards may be canceled.

a.If you are currently enrolled in the Citigroup Health Benefit Plan, the Citigroup Dental Benefit Plan, and/or the Citigroup Vision Benefit Plan, you may elect, under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), to temporarily continue your benefits beginning the day after your Termination Date. You will receive notification from Citi’s COBRA Administrator further advising you of the continuation of benefits available and the rates and premium payment procedure. If eligible, you may elect to enroll in retiree medical and dental coverage (“Retiree Insurance”) under the Citigroup Medical and Dental Plans. Your eligibility, the date on which you must first commence Retiree Insurance, your cost and the other terms and conditions of Retiree Insurance will be determined in accordance with the plan document and applicable policies as administered and interpreted by the Retiree Insurance administrators.

b.Through your Termination Date, you must continue to comply with all stock ownership commitments (“SOC”) and all personal trading policies that applied to you during your employment. Further, for the one year period following the date you cease to be a Section 16 officer, you will be required to retain a number of Citi shares equal to 50% of the shares previously subject to the SOC. The personal trading restrictions imposed by Citi’s personal trading policies apply to all personal trading accounts (“Personal Accounts”) held by you as well as the personal accounts of immediate family members if they are subject to those polices (“Related Accounts”). Failure to abide by the applicable trading restrictions for both Personal Accounts and Related Accounts may result in trade cancellation with all associated costs being borne by the account holders. To pre-clear transactions or if you have questions regarding personal trading, please contact the Employee Trading Hotline at ###-###-####.

c.During your Notice Period, there may be regulatory responsibilities on your behalf; therefore, please keep us informed of any event that would require a regulatory filing.

d.You are reminded that you are Covered Employee under Citi’s Employment Termination Notice and Nonsolicitation Policy. Therefore, except as otherwise provided by law, you may not commence employment with a new employer during the Transition Period or the Notice Period, and are subject to nonsolicitation obligations as set forth below. Further, during the Transition and Notice Periods, you must not conduct yourself in a manner that damages Citi’s existing and ongoing relationships with its clients, suppliers, and employees, or Citi’s other business interests.

1.Eligibility and Sufficiency.

Citi agrees that prior to taking any action outlined in this Paragraph 2(a), Citi shall provide you with written notice describing in reasonable detail the circumstance giving rise to such alleged breach (which notice shall be delivered to you within thirty (30) days of such circumstances) and you shall have thirty (30) days from receiving such notice to cure such circumstances, to the extent such circumstances are reasonably susceptible to cure.

b.You acknowledge and agree that the total payments and benefits set forth in Paragraphs 1(a), (b), (d) and (e) of this Agreement (the “Separation Benefits”) (i) exceed the payments and benefits you would otherwise be entitled to receive under the terms of any contract or your offer letter, and (ii) constitute valuable consideration for your obligations under this Agreement.

1.Non-Disparagement.

Except as otherwise provided by law or in Paragraphs 3(g) and/or 11 of this Agreement, you agree: (i) not to disparage or denigrate Citi or the Releasees orally or in writing; and

(ii) that neither you nor anyone acting on your behalf will publish, post, or otherwise release any material in written or electronic format, make speeches, give interviews, or make public appearances that disparage Citi, its operations, clients, employees, products, or services without the prior written consent of the General Counsel of Citigroup Inc. For the sole purpose of your job duties in any future employment that requires you to comment publicly on Citi, the non-disparagement obligations set forth in this Paragraph 8 are limited to your use of any information that you learned during or as a result of your employment with Citi. Subject to Paragraph 11 herein, Citi agrees to instruct Michael Corbat and Jane Fraser as of the date hereof that, for so long as they are a Citi employee, they must not defame or disparage you in any medium to any person or entity.

2.Non-Solicitation.

During your Transition and Notice Periods and for the one-year period following your Termination Date, to the extent permitted by law, you agree that you will not (a) engage in any conduct, either individually or in concert with a third party, which, directly or indirectly, causes or attempts to cause any Citi employee to leave the employment of Citi for the purposes of employment outside of Citi regardless of whether the solicitation for employment originates from the Citi employee, or (b) directly or indirectly, induce or otherwise counsel, advise, encourage or solicit, including through the use of social media, any client of Citi whom you serviced or had substantial contact during your employment to terminate its relationship with Citi or to transfer assets away from or otherwise reduce its business with Citi.

Citi hereby agrees and confirms that you are not subject to any non-compete.

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

3.Duty to Provide Information.

a.Except as otherwise provided by law or in Paragraph 3(g), this Paragraph 10, and/or Paragraph 11 of this Agreement, you agree, at Citi’s reasonable request, to provide information to Citi and its attorneys as may be required in connection with the defense, investigation or prosecution of any third party claim that has been, or in the future may be, made against Citi, or in connection with any ongoing or future investigation or claim of any kind involving Citi, including any formal or informal proceeding before any Relevant Authority (including responding to any formal or informal requests for documents or testimony), with the understanding that any meetings you are requested to attend are scheduled during normal business hours at mutually agreeable times, with regard for your personal and business commitments.

For purposes of this Agreement, a “Relevant Authority” is any domestic or international court of law, governmental or regulatory agency or self-regulatory organization having supervisory authority over the business of Citi or any domestic or international arbitral, administrative, judicial or legislative body (including a committee thereof), including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) or the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”).

b.You further agree, unless otherwise provided by law or in this Paragraph 10, to execute and deliver any documents that may reasonably be necessary for, and customarily associated with, carrying out the provisions of this Paragraph 10. Further, you agree that you will advise Citi of any contact made by attorneys or other agents on behalf of, or with respect to, private parties (other than Citi) with legal claims involving Citi. Should you agree to speak with such private party (or any representative thereof) regarding information you learned through and during your employment with Citi, you will permit a Citi representative to attend such meeting, where permitted by law, to prevent disclosure of privileged information or Confidential Information.

c.Nothing in this Paragraph 10 shall require you to take any action prejudicial to your legal interests or be construed to limit in any way the provisions of Paragraph 11 of this Agreement, and the requirements of this Paragraph 10 shall not apply in any circumstances in which such requirements would have the effect of prohibiting or restricting you from providing evidence or other information to any government, regulatory, or self-regulatory agency.

d.Citi shall reimburse you for any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by you in connection with your cooperation hereunder (including, but not limited to: travel; accommodations; and subject to the applicable indemnification provisions (including, without limitation, those regarding recoupment if you do not meet the relevant standard of conduct), reasonable attorney’s fees in the event it is necessary for you to retain separate counsel in connection with your cooperation under this Paragraph 10)).

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

1.Disclosure of Information to Government, Regulatory or Self-Regulatory Agency and Other Permitted Disclosures.

(“NYSE”), or the EEOC, or from responding to any court order or subpoena, or from participating in any reward program offered by any government, regulatory, or self-regulatory agency. You may also disclose confidential information, including trade secrets, to (a) any government, regulatory, or self- regulatory agency, including under Section 21F of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, Section 23 of the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, or Section 7 of the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (“Defend Trade Secrets Act”), and the rules thereunder, or (b) an attorney in connection with the reporting or investigation of a suspected violation of law or to an attorney or in a court filing under seal in connection with a retaliation or other lawsuit or proceeding, as permitted under the Defend Trade Secrets Act.

You do not need the prior authorization of Citi to make these disclosures or provide evidence or other information to any government, regulatory, or self-regulatory agency, and you are not required to notify Citi that you have done so.

The disclosures permitted under this Paragraph 11(a) are intended for regulatory and/or law enforcement purposes. It does not permit disclosure for commercial or competitive purposes of any confidential information, including trade secrets, to government owned, related or sponsored agencies, entities or enterprises that compete directly or indirectly with Citi and its businesses.

b.Further, you and Citi may disclose the terms of this Agreement if necessary in any action to enforce this Agreement. Except with regard to an inquiry by or other disclosure to any government, regulatory, or self-regulatory agency as provided in Paragraph 11(a) above, you will promptly give notice of any attempt to compel disclosure of the terms of this Agreement to the Global Employment Law Group, Citigroup Inc., at the address specified in Paragraph 6(a) above, as soon as possible and at least five days before compliance is required.

c.For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement (including but not limited to the provisions set forth in Paragraphs 7 and 8 above) shall prohibit, prevent or otherwise restrict you or Citi from (i) initiating, testifying, assisting, complying with a subpoena from, or participating in any manner with an investigation conducted by the appropriate local, state or federal agency; (ii) filing or disclosing facts necessary to receive unemployment insurance, Medicaid, or other public benefits to which you are entitled; or (iii) making any other disclosures which are otherwise permitted by applicable federal, state or local law, or under the terms of the Agreement.

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

1.Enforceability.

a.This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (regardless of conflict of laws principles) as to all matters including, without limitation, validity, construction, effect, performance, and remedies except where otherwise provided by law, in which case, it shall be governed by the laws of the state in which you currently work.

b.The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall have no effect upon, and shall not impair the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, or of this Agreement in its entirety in any other jurisdiction. You and Citi agree that if any provision herein is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, you and Citi will request that the court revise the provision to come closest to the meaning intended and the provision will be enforced as rewritten without affecting any other provision of this Agreement. To the extent it may be necessary, you agree to cooperate with Citi and its attorneys in seeking any regulatory, governmental or court approval of the terms of this Agreement in order to ensure that it is fully enforceable as written.

2.Arbitration.

In the event of any disputes arising out of or relating in any way to the validity, interpretation, or enforcement of this Agreement, other than injunctive relief and disputes which by law or statute are not arbitrable, the parties agree first to engage in prompt and serious good faith discussions to resolve the dispute. If such discussions fail to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days, the parties shall try to resolve the dispute through mediation using the services of JAMS. If such mediation fails to resolve the dispute, the parties shall submit the dispute to arbitration pursuant to Citi’s Employment Arbitration Policy in effect as of your Termination Date. The decision of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each party will bear its own attorneys’ fees and expenses in mediation and arbitration except, and only to the extent permitted by applicable statute, as may be awarded in arbitration. Nothing contained herein shall limit your or Citi’s right to obtain injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration.

3.Payment/Modification by Citi.

a.You acknowledge and agree that you and Citi intend for this Agreement to be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury pronouncements relating thereto. You further agree that this Agreement may be amended by Citi to the extent necessary in Citi’s judgment to comply with the Code, and any rules, regulations and Treasury pronouncements relating thereto in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided herein without additional cost to Citi. In no event shall Citi be liable for any Section 409A additional tax, penalties or interest, or for any damages, as a result of any amendment of or failure to amend this Agreement.

a.Provided you timely sign this Agreement, the Separation Pay to be paid to you pursuant to Paragraph 1(d) above and the Initial Payment to be paid to you pursuant to Paragraph 1(e) above will be paid as soon as practical following the later of your Termination Date or the Effective Date of this Agreement but in no event later than March 15, 2022.

1.Breach of this Agreement.

a.You agree that in the event of any material misrepresentation or material breach by you of any part of this Agreement, Citi may recover any amounts paid to you herein, cancel your unpaid CAP and DCAP awards, and seek any other remedies available to it.

b.You further acknowledge and agree that Citi’s remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of the above Paragraphs 3, 6, 7(a), 8, 9 or 10 would be inadequate and, therefore, in addition to any remedies at law or under the terms of the applicable benefit or equity plans, Citi shall be entitled to seek equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction, or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

2.Knowing and Voluntary Agreement.

You acknowledge that (a) you have read and understand each of the provisions of this Agreement; (b) you are hereby advised to consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement; (c) you have 21 days from your receipt of this Agreement to review it and to consider your decision to sign it (the “Review Period”), although you may return it to the undersigned prior to that time if you desire, provided you have ceased performing your current job duties; (d) you are entering into this Agreement of your own free will; and (e) this Agreement is not intended to be a waiver of Claims arising after the date you sign this Agreement.

3.Revocation and Expiration of this Agreement.

Once you sign this Agreement, you have 7 days to revoke it (“Revocation Period”). You may do so by delivering to the undersigned written notice of your revocation within the Revocation Period. Your signed Agreement will become effective as of the date that you sign and return it, provided that (i) you have signed and returned it within the Review Period, (ii) you have not revoked it during the Revocation Period, and (iii) this Agreement is signed on behalf of Citi (“Effective Date”).

plans or programs and limited partnerships or other employee investment plans. In entering into this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that you are not relying on any representations by Citi or any other Releasees other than those expressly contained in this Agreement.

a.Except as provided in Paragraph 14 above, no amendment or modification to this Agreement shall be valid unless made in a separate writing and signed by you and a duly authorized representative of Citi. Any handwritten comments, inserts or interlineations of this Agreement will not be accepted under any circumstances and shall render this Agreement null and void.

AWARD AGREEMENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The Terms and Conditions below constitute part of this Agreement and relate to the Deferred Cash Award described on the preceding Summary page. All references to the Deferred Cash Award in this Agreement will include any notional interest accrued thereon. Except as otherwise provided herein, the “Company” means Citigroup and its consolidated subsidiaries. The “Committee” means the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Citigroup Board of Directors and any person with authority directly or indirectly delegated from the Committee.

1.Participant Acknowledgements. By accepting the Deferred Cash Award, Participant acknowledges that:

(a)He has read and understands these Terms and Conditions.

(b)The Deferred Cash Award will be canceled or reduced if a clawback provision is applied.

(c)The Deferred Cash Award is in satisfaction of the obligation to pay the deferred cash award described in paragraph 1(e) of the Letter Agreement.

(d)A Deferred Cash Award is an unsecured general obligation of any employer that employed Participant during the deferral period applicable to the Deferred Cash Award and, until paid in accordance with its terms, is subject to the claims of such employer’s creditors. The currency in which Participant’s Deferred Cash Award is denominated and/or paid and any required tax withholding and reporting will be in accordance with Citigroup’s policies, as in effect from time to time, relating to the administration of Citigroup’s incentive compensation programs.

2.Vesting Conditions. Your Deferred Cash Award shall vest on the scheduled vesting dates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement notwithstanding your status as a former employee. If the conditions to vesting are not satisfied as of the applicable vesting date(s), the unvested portion of the Deferred Cash Award will be subject to cancelation as set forth in this Agreement.

(a)Performance-Based Vesting Condition and General Clawback.

(i)Participant’s Deferred Cash Award is subject to the following condition (a “Performance Vesting Condition”). The Committee may cancel all or a portion of an unvested Deferred Cash Award if it determines, in its sole discretion, that Participant has had significant responsibility for a material adverse outcome for Citigroup or any of its businesses or functions. The Committee has the exclusive discretionary authority to determine and define “significant responsibility” and “material adverse outcome” and all other undefined terms in this Agreement. As of the date hereof, Citi is not aware of any determination that you have “significant responsibility” for a “material adverse outcome for Citigroup or any of its businesses or functions” as defined in this paragraph.

(ii)Participant’s Deferred Cash Award is subject to the following clawback condition (the “General Clawback”). The Committee may cancel all or a portion of an unvested Deferred Cash Award if it determines, in its judgment, 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 supervise or monitor individuals engaging in, or Participant failed 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.

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

i.The Performance Vesting Condition and General Clawback described in this Section 2(a) and other terms of the Award do not change during the deferral period of the Award. The Performance Vesting Condition and General Clawback are not modified solely because Participant terminates employment with the Company.

a.Citi Clawback. Any unvested portion of the Deferred Cash Award will be canceled or forfeited if the Committee, in its judgment, determines that (i) Participant received the Award based on materially inaccurate publicly reported financial statements, (ii) Participant knowingly engaged in providing materially inaccurate information relating to publicly reported financial statements, (iii) Participant materially violated any risk limits established or revised by senior management and/or risk management, or (iv) Participant has engaged in “gross misconduct” (the “Citi Clawback”). For purposes of this Agreement, “gross misconduct” means any conduct that is determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, (1) to be in competition during employment by the Company with the Company’s business operations, (2) to be in breach of any obligation that Participant owes to the Company or Participant’s

duty of loyalty to the Company, (3) to be materially injurious to the Company, or (4) to otherwise constitute gross misconduct under the Company’s guidelines.

b.Letter Agreement. Any unvested portion of the Deferred Cash Award may be canceled or forfeited if Participant has breached any covenant contained in paragraphs 1(i), 1(j), 3, 5(a), 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 of the Letter Agreement.

c.Notional Interest. Participant acknowledges that the Deferred Cash Award does not provide for actual interest payments but, if and when paid, includes an additional amount calculated with reference to an interest rate. This notional interest on the Deferred Cash Award will be calculated at the rate indicated in the Deferred Cash Award Summary on page 1 of this Agreement. The payment of a vested installment of the Deferred Cash Award will include the accrued notional interest on the value of the installment that vests after the Performance Vesting Condition described in Section 2(a) is applied and all other conditions to vesting are satisfied.

d.Additional Conditions.

(i)Once all applicable conditions to vesting have been satisfied, Participant’s vested Deferred Cash Award will be distributed as soon as administratively practicable, except as may be provided elsewhere in this Agreement. Vesting and payment in each case are subject to receipt of the information necessary to make required tax payments and confirmation by Citigroup that all applicable conditions to vesting and distribution or payment have been satisfied. All payments pursuant to the Deferred Cash Award are net of any amounts withheld for taxes.

(ii)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Committee may suspend the vesting and payment of Participant’s Deferred Cash Award pending an investigation into whether there are circumstances that would prevent Participant’s Deferred Cash Award from vesting under the general vesting conditions or Performance Vesting Condition, or subject the Deferred Cash Award to

forfeiture pursuant to a clawback provision that is applicable to Participant’s Deferred Cash Award.

(iii)If it is subsequently determined (whether following an investigation or otherwise) that vesting conditions are, in fact, not satisfied with respect to the Deferred Cash Award, such Deferred Cash Award may be reduced or canceled. If it is subsequently determined (whether following an investigation or otherwise) that vesting conditions were, in fact, not satisfied with respect to the Deferred Cash Award that should not have been paid or vested, Participant will be obligated, pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement, to return or repay to the Company any improperly vested amounts.

1.Transferability. The unvested portion of the Deferred Cash Award may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, margined or otherwise transferred, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and no Deferred Cash Award or interest or right therein shall be subject to the debts, contracts or engagements of Participant or his successors in interest or will be subject to disposition by

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

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 Deferred Cash Award. During Participant’s lifetime, all rights with respect to the Deferred Cash Award will be exercisable only by Participant, and any and all payments in respect of the Deferred Cash 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 Deferred Cash Award, and Participant agrees to take all reasonable measures to protect the Company against any such claims being asserted in respect of Participant’s Deferred Cash 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.

1.Repayment Obligations and Right of Set-Off.

i.Repayment Obligations. If the Committee determines that all conditions to vesting and payment of the Deferred Cash Award (or any portion thereof) were not satisfied in full, the Committee will cancel such vesting and immediately terminate Participant’s rights with respect to such Deferred Cash Award (or improperly vested portion thereof). If any such Deferred Cash Award (or improperly vested portion thereof) has already been paid, Participant agrees, upon demand, to pay the Company the amount of any cash paid in settlement of the vesting of such Deferred Cash Award (or improperly vested portion thereof), without reduction for any amounts withheld to satisfy withholding tax or other obligations due at the time such payment that is subsequently determined to have been improperly made.

ii.Right of Set-Off. Participant agrees that the Company may, to the extent determined by the Company to be permitted by applicable law and consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of

the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), retain for itself funds otherwise payable to Participant pursuant to the Deferred Cash Award or any award under any award program administered by Citigroup 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, repayment obligations under 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. The Company may not retain such funds and set-off such obligations or liabilities, as described above, until such time as they would otherwise be payable to Participant in accordance with the award terms. Only after-tax amounts will be applied to set-off Participant’s obligations and liabilities and Participant will remain liable to pay any amounts that are not thereby satisfied in full.

2.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, brochures, grant or award notifications and agreements, account statements, annual and quarterly reports, and all other forms or communications) in connection with the Deferred Cash Award and any other prior 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 secure internet site to which Participant has access.

3.Plan Administration. The Deferred Cash Award described in this Agreement has been granted subject to the terms of the DCAP plan document. The Committee, and its delegates, including the Plan Administrator (as defined in the DCAP plan document), has the exclusive discretionary authority to make findings of fact, conclusions, and determinations regarding the interpretation of this Agreement or the DCAP provisions or the administration of the Deferred Cash Award, and will have the exclusive and final authority to determine all calculations of Deferred Cash Award amounts, including notional interest. The

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

Committee, and its delegates, including the Plan Administrator, has the exclusive authority to establish administrative procedures to implement the terms of the Deferred Cash Award. Any such procedure will be conclusive and binding on Participant. The Committee and Plan Administrator must exercise their discretion reasonably and in good faith.

1.Taxes and Tax Residency Status.

i.Compliance. By accepting the Deferred Cash 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. 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 income tax residency status and the number and location of workdays outside his country of income tax residency from the date of the Deferred Cash Award until the vesting of the Deferred Cash Award. Participant also agrees to provide, upon request, complete and accurate information about his tax residency status to Citigroup during such periods, and confirmation of his 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.

ii.Deferred Cash Award. To the extent the Company is required to withhold tax in any jurisdiction upon the vesting of the Deferred Cash Award or at such times as otherwise may be required in connection with the Deferred Cash Award, the Company will withhold from the vested portion of the Award to the extent permitted by applicable law, or withhold hypothetical tax pursuant to a Citigroup Expatriate policy, and Participant will be paid the after-tax or after-hypothetical tax amount. If a tax or hypothetical tax the Company is required to withhold is due prior to vesting and withholding is prohibited by applicable law or regulatory guidance, Participant will be required to pay the amount of the applicable tax due to the Company. The Award will be subject to cancelation if Participant fails to make any such required tax payment.

2.Entire Agreement. The plan and program documents, the Letter Agreement, and this Agreement constitute the entire understanding between the Company and Participant regarding the Deferred Cash 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.

3.Adjustments to the Deferred Cash Award.

iii.Modifications. The Committee retains the right to modify Participant’s Deferred Cash Award if required to comply with applicable law (including applicable tax law) without Participant’s prior consent. Citigroup will furnish or make available to Participant a written notice of any modification, 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.

iv.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 Deferred Cash Award.

4.Section 409A and Section 457A Compliance. Participant understands that as a result of Section 409A and/or Section 457A of the Code, if Participant is a U.S. taxpayer he could be subject to adverse tax consequences if the Deferred Cash Award or the DCAP plan document is not administered in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A or Section 457A. Participant further understands that if Participant is a U.S. taxpayer, and the Deferred Cash 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 Deferred Cash Award. In such circumstances, Citigroup may, but will not be required to, modify or amend

Wei-Chung Hu March 12, 2021

the Deferred Cash Award, as provided by the DCAP plan document. However, Participant acknowledges that there is no guarantee that the Deferred Cash 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.

1.Compliance with Regulatory Requirements. The Deferred Cash Award is 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.

2.Arbitration; Conflict; Governing Law; Severability.

i.Arbitration. Any disputes related to the Deferred Cash Award will be resolved by arbitration in accordance with paragraph 12 of the Letter Agreement. In the absence of an effective arbitration policy, Participant understands and agrees that any dispute related to the Deferred Cash Award will be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. To the maximum extent permitted by law, and except where expressly prohibited by law, arbitration on an individual basis will be the exclusive remedy for any claims that might otherwise be brought on a class, representative or collective basis. Accordingly, Participant may not participate as a class or collective action representative, or as a member of any class, representative or collective action, and will not be entitled to a recovery in a class, representative or collective action in any forum. Any disputes concerning the validity of this class, representative or collective action waiver will be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction, not by an arbitrator.

ii.Conflict. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Letter Agreement, the Letter Agreement will control. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the DCAP plan document, this Agreement will control.

iii.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.

iv.Severability. The terms of this Agreement will be deemed severable so that if any of its provisions will be held void, unlawful, or unenforceable under any applicable statute or other controlling law, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect, and will be construed and enforced in accordance with the purposes of the DCAP plan document as if the illegal or invalid provision did not exist.

Such action will always be undertaken only in accordance with applicable law.
