        Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. is the sole provider of full liquidity facilities to the commercial paper programs of the Master and Omni Trusts. Both of these facilities, which represent contractual obligations on the part of Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. to provide liquidity for the issued commercial paper, are made available on market terms to each of the trusts. The liquidity facilities require Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. to purchase the commercial paper issued by each trust at maturity, if the commercial paper does not roll over, as long as there are available credit enhancements outstanding, typically in the form of subordinated notes. The liquidity commitment related to the Omni Trust commercial paper programs, amounted to $4.4 billion at September 30, 2009 and $8.5 billion at December 31, 2008. The liquidity commitment related to the Master Trust commercial paper program amounted to $12 billion at September 30, 2009 and $11 billion at December 31, 2008. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, none of the Master Trust or Omni Trust liquidity commitments were drawn.

        In addition, Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. provides liquidity to a third-party, non-consolidated multi-seller commercial paper conduit, which is not a VIE. The commercial paper conduit has acquired notes issued by the Omni Trust. Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. provides the liquidity facility on market terms. Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. will be required to act in its capacity as liquidity provider as long as there are available credit enhancements outstanding and if: (1) the conduit is unable to roll over its maturing commercial paper; or (2) Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. loses its A-1/P-1 credit rating. The liquidity commitment to the third-party conduit was $5.2 billion at September 30, 2009 and $4 billion at December 31, 2008. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, none of this liquidity commitment was drawn.

        All three of Citigroup's primary credit card securitization trusts have had bonds placed on ratings watch with negative implications by rating agencies during the first, second and third quarters of 2009. As a result of the ratings watch status, certain actions were taken with respect to each of the trusts. In general, the actions subordinated certain senior interests in the trust assets that were retained by Citigroup, which effectively placed these interests below investor interests in terms of priority of payment. With respect to the Master Trust, in the first quarter of 2009, Citigroup subordinated a portion of its "seller's interest", which represents a senior interest in Trust receivables, thus making those cash flows available to pay investor coupon each month. In addition, during the second quarter of 2009, a subordinated note with a $3 billion principal amount was issued by the Master Trust and retained by Citibank (South Dakota), N.A., in order to provide additional credit support for the senior note classes. The note is classified as held-to-maturity investment securities as Citigroup has the intent and ability to hold the security until its maturity. With respect to the Omni Trust, in the second quarter of 2009, subordinated notes with a principal amount of $2 billion were issued by the Trust and retained by Citibank (South Dakota), N.A., in order to provide additional credit support for the senior note classes. The notes are classified as Trading account assets. These notes are in addition to a $265 million subordinated note issued by Omni Trust and retained by Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. in the fourth quarter of 2008 for the purpose of providing additional credit support for senior noteholders. With respect to the Broadway Trust, subordinated notes with a principal amount of $82 million were issued by the Trust and retained by Citibank, N.A., in order to provide additional credit support for the senior note classes. The notes are classified as Trading account assets.
