By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Aug. 31 - Citigroup Funding Inc. priced $1.1 million of 17% autocallable equity-linked securities due Sept. 3, 2013 linked to the common stock of Facebook, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable quarterly.

If Facebook shares close at or above the initial share price on any of three observation dates, the securities will be automatically called at par. The observation dates are Nov. 28, Feb. 28 and May 28, 2013.

If the notes are not called and the final share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price - 65% of the initial price - the payout at maturity will be par in cash. Otherwise, the payout will be a number of shares of Facebook stock equal to $1,000 divided by the initial share price, or at the holder's election, the cash equivalent.
