Treasury said that completion of the offering would depend on whether it receives an acceptable price for the shares. Treasury received approximately 7.7 billion shares of Citigroup common stock from the exchange offers in July 2009 for the $25 billion in preferred stock received in connection with Citigroup’s participation in the Capital Purchase Program. The exchange was part of exchange offers conducted by Citigroup to strengthen its capital base. Treasury has disposed of approximately 5.3 billion shares to date in at-the-market sales. This proposed offering would dispose of Treasury's remaining shares of Citigroup common stock. If the offering is completed, Treasury would continue to hold warrants for Citigroup’s common stock that were also issued as part of Citigroup’s participation in Treasury programs.
