· any suspension of, or limitation imposed on, trading by the relevant exchange or quotation system during the one-hour period prior to the close of trading for the regular trading session on the exchange or quotation system (or for purposes of determining VWAP any period or periods aggregating one half-hour or longer) and whether by reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by the relevant exchange or quotation system or otherwise relating to Citigroup common stock or in futures or option contracts relating to Citigroup common stock on the relevant exchange or quotation system;

Except as stated above, the conversion rate will not be adjusted for the issuance of Citigroup common stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Citigroup common stock or carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing or for the repurchase of Citigroup common stock. An adjustment to the conversion rate also need not be made for a transaction referred to in clauses (1) through (5) above if holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock may participate in the transaction on a basis and with notice that the Citigroup board of directors determines to be fair and appropriate in light of the basis and notice on which holders of Citigroup common stock participate in the transaction. In addition, no adjustment to the conversion rate need be made for a change in the par value or no par value of the Citigroup common stock.
Citigroup may, but shall not be required to, make such increases in the conversion rate, in addition to those that are required, as the board of directors of Citigroup considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Citigroup common stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or
16
warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reason.
To the extent that Citigroup has a rights plan in effect on any conversion date, you will receive, in addition to Citigroup common stock, the rights under the rights plan, unless, prior to the conversion date, the rights have separated from the common stock, in which case the conversion rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if Citigroup made a distribution to all holders of Citigroup common stock of Citigroup capital stock, evidences of Citigroup indebtedness or Citigroup assets, as described in clause (3) above.
No adjustment in the conversion rate will be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent; provided, however, that any such minor adjustments that are not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and provided further that any such adjustment of less than one percent that has not been made will be made upon (x) the end of each fiscal year of Citigroup, (y) the date of any notice of a redemption or a make-whole acquisition and (z) any conversion date.
Adjustments to the conversion rate will be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share.
Whenever the conversion rate is adjusted, Citigroup must deliver to the conversion agent a certificate setting forth the conversion rate, detailing the calculation of the conversion rate and describing the facts upon which the adjustment is based. In addition, Citigroup must notify the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock of the adjustment within ten Business Days of any event requiring such adjustment and describe in reasonable detail the method by which the conversion rate was adjusted.
