Market Disruption Events and Disruption Fallbacks:
If a Market Disruption Event relating to or one or more of the commodities contracts underlying the Index or any Successor Index (each an index contract ) is in effect on the scheduled Final Valuation Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate the closing Index value in good faith in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Index last in effect prior to commencement of the Market Disruption Event, using:
for each index contract that did not suffer a Market Disruption Event on the scheduled Final Valuation Date, the settlement price on the applicable Relevant Exchange of such index contract on the scheduled Final Valuation Date, and
for each index contract that did suffer a Market Disruption Event on the scheduled Final Valuation Date, the settlement price of such index contract on the applicable Relevant Exchange on the immediately succeeding trading day on which no Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing with respect to such index contract (which trading day shall be deemed the Final Valuation Date for such index contract);
provided however that if a Market Disruption Event has occurred or is continuing with respect to such index contract on each of the five scheduled trading days following the scheduled Final Valuation Date, then (a) the fifth scheduled trading day shall be deemed the Final Valuation Date for such index contract and (b) the Calculation Agent will determine the price for such index contract on such fifth scheduled trading day acting in good faith and commercially reasonable matter, taking into account the latest available quotation for the settlement price of such index contract and any other information that in good faith it deems relevant.
A Market Disruption Event means any of the following events, as determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent:
(A) the termination or suspension of, or material limitation or disruption in the trading on a Relevant Exchange of an index contract;
(B) the settlement price on a Relevant Exchange of an index contract has increased or decreased by an amount equal to the maximum permitted price change from the previous days settlement price; or
(C) the settlement price of an index contract is not published by the Relevant Exchange.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following events will not constitute Market Disruption Events:
(1) a limitation on the hours in a trading day and/or number of days of trading, if it results from an announced change in the regular business hours of the Relevant Exchange; or
(2) a decision to permanently discontinue trading in an index contract or options or futures contracts relating to the Index or any commodity underlying the Index.
For purposes of the above, (a) Relevant Exchange means any organized exchange or market of trading for any futures contract (or any combination thereof) then included in the Index or any Successor Index; and (b) trading day means a day, as determined in good faith by the Calculation Agent, on which trading is generally conducted on the Relevant Exchange applicable to the affected

index contract.
Discontinuance of the Index
If Dow Jones discontinues publication of the Dow Jones-UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index, and if Dow Jones or another entity publishes a successor or substitute index that the Calculation Agent determines, good faith, to be comparable to the relevant index, then the value of the relevant index will be determined by reference to the value of that index, which we refer to as a successor index.
Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a successor index, the Calculation Agent will cause notice to be furnished to the registered holders of the Notes. If Dow Jones discontinues the publication of the Dow Jones-UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index and a successor index is not selected by the Calculation Agent or is no longer published on any date of determination of the value of the Dow Jones-UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index, the value to be substituted for the Dow Jones-UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index for that date will be a value computed by the Calculation Agent for that date in accordance with the procedures last used to calculate the relevant index prior to any such discontinuance. If Dow Jones discontinues publication of the Dow Jones-UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index prior to the determination of the Supplemental Return Amount and the Calculation Agent determines that no successor index is available at that time, then on each Business Day until the earlier to occur of (a) the determination of the Supplemental Return Amount and (b) a determination by the Calculation Agent that a successor index is available, the Calculation Agent will determine the value that is to be used in computing the value of the Dow Jones-UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or the relevant index as described in the preceding paragraph. If a successor index is selected or the Calculation Agent calculates a substitute for the relevant index as described above, the successor index or value will be substituted for the relevant index for all purposes, including for purposes of determining whether a Business Day or Market Disruption Event occurs. Notwithstanding these alternative arrangements, discontinuance of the publication of the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Total Return Index may adversely affect the market value of the Notes. All determinations made by the Calculation Agent will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on us, Citigroup Inc. and the beneficial owners of the Notes, absent manifest error.
Alteration of Method of Calculation
If at any time the method of calculating the Dow Jones - UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or a successor index is changed in any material respect, or if the Dow Jones - UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or a successor index is in any other way modified so that the value of the Dow Jones - UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or a successor index does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the value of that index had the changes or modifications not been made, then, from and after that time, the Calculation Agent will, at the close of business in New York, New York, make those adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a calculation of a value of a index comparable to the Dow Jones - UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or the successor index as if the changes or modifications had not been made, and calculate the value of the index with reference to the Dow Jones - UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or the successor index. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the Dow Jones - UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or the successor index is so modified that the value of the Dow Jones - UBS Precious Metals Total Return Index or the successor index is a fraction or a multiple of what it would have been if it had not been modified, then the Calculation Agent will adjust that index in order to arrive at a value of the index as if it had not been modified.
