New Issue: Citigroup prices $1.13 million autocallable contingent coupon notes on General Electric

By Toni Weeks

San Diego, June 27 - Citigroup Funding Inc. priced $1.13 million of autocallable contingent coupon equity-linked securities due June 28, 2013 linked to General Electric Co. shares, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay an annualized coupon of 8% each quarter if the closing price of GE shares is equal to or greater than the downside threshold price, 80% of the initial share price. Otherwise, holders will not receive the contingent interest payment for that quarter.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus the contingent coupon if the closing price of the underlying shares on any of the first three quarterly valuation dates is greater than or equal to the initial share price.

If the notes are not automatically called, the payout at maturity will be par if the final share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price. If the final share price is less than the downside threshold price, investors will receive a number of shares equal to the principal amount of notes divided by the initial share price or the cash value of those shares.

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is the underwriter.
