Citigroup (C)

Broker/Dealer Subsidiaries

        The Company's broker/dealer subsidiaries—including Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (CGMI), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. (CGMHI)—are subject to various securities and commodities regulations and capital adequacy requirements of the regulatory and exchange authorities of the countries in which they operate. The Company's U.S. registered broker/dealer subsidiaries are subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's Net Capital Rule, Rule 15c3-1 (the Net Capital Rule) under the Exchange Act. In August 2006, CGMI was approved by the SEC to use the alternative method of computing net capital contained in Appendix E of Rule 15c3-1. This methodology allows CGMI to compute market risk capital charges using internal value-at-risk models. The Net Capital Rule requires the maintenance of a defined amount of minimum net capital. The Net Capital Rule also limits the ability of broker/dealers to transfer large amounts of capital to parent companies and other affiliates. Compliance with the Net Capital Rule could limit operations of the Company that require the intensive use of capital, such as underwriting and trading activities and the financing of customer account balances. It could also restrict CGMHI's ability to withdraw capital from its broker/dealer subsidiaries, which could limit CGMHI's ability to pay dividends and make payments on its debt. CGMHI monitors its leverage and capital ratios on a daily basis.

        In addition, certain of the Company's broker/dealer subsidiaries are subject to regulation in the other countries in which they do business, including requirements to maintain specified levels of net capital or its equivalent. The Company's broker/dealer subsidiaries were in compliance with their capital requirements at September 30, 2006.
