Mr. Crittenden
Mr. Crittenden’s employment agreement dated February 23, 2007 has provisions that apply in the event of his termination of employment before March 12, 2009. If his termination of employment had occurred due to death or disability before his incentive award, if any, in respect of 2008 was paid, then (a) he would have received a cash payment equal to $9,500,000, multiplied by a fraction, which is the number of days worked in 2008 until his death or disability divided by 366, and (b) any nonvested make-whole equity awards will vest immediately. Mr. Crittenden agreed to waive all incentive or retention compensation for 2008, and accordingly, the amount shown above in the chart is $0.
 
In addition, if Mr. Crittenden resigns without good cause or is terminated for cause, any outstanding but nonvested equity award will be cancelled, he will not be eligible to receive any future incentive awards, and, if such resignation or termination occurs before March 12, 2009, all make-whole cash or equity awards will be forfeited or repaid by Mr. Crittenden. Good cause is defined as (a) a material reduction in
 
responsibility or position, (b) removal from the business heads committee, management committee, or operating committee (or their successors), (c) a significant reduction in compensation that is either not related to his performance or not applicable to senior executives at his level, (d) a change in reporting relationship that results in his reporting to someone other than the ceo of Citi, or (e) the material interference by Citi with his authority to perform his duties in a manner consistent with applicable regulatory requirements and sound business practices.
 
The agreement does not provide for payments in connection with a change in control, but does provide for nonsolicitation of employees and customers for one year after termination of employment as well as protection of confidential and proprietary information.
