| Description of the Plan | Description of the Plan The following brief description of the Citi Retirement Savings Plan for Puerto Rico (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan's Summary Plan Description and legal Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan. (a) General The Plan was established in 2001 and is a defined contribution plan designed to encourage savings on the part of eligible employees. The Plan covers eligible employees of Citibank, N.A., a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. (the Company), and its affiliates who primarily reside and work in Puerto Rico. Citibank, N.A. is the Plan Sponsor. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), and the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code of 2011, as amended (PRIRC). The Plan is designed to comply with Section 404(c) of ERISA and the related regulations. The Plan provides for participant-directed accounts, which permits a participant or beneficiary to exercise control over the assets in the account and make investment decisions. As a result, the Plan's fiduciaries may be released from liability for any losses that result from the participant's or beneficiary's individual investment decisions. Banco Popular de Puerto Rico (Banco Popular) is the trustee of the Plan. Bank of New York Mellon is the custodian of the Plan. The Plan is administered by Alight Solutions Inc., a third‑party administrator. (b) Eligibility Eligible employees generally include employees performing services for the Company and employees of participating subsidiaries, who are considered bona fide residents of Puerto Rico or who perform services primarily in Puerto Rico, as defined in the Plan document. Full-time and part-time employees are eligible to participate on the first day of the first pay period after the participant becomes an employee of the Company. (c) Employee Contributions Eligible employees may defer on a before-tax basis through payroll deductions up to 50% (in 1% increments) of their eligible pay subject to certain legal limitations. Eligible pay generally includes base salary, overtime, commissions, shift differential pay, and periodic incentive bonuses. The maximum annual eligible pay does not exceed the applicable limits permitted by the PRIRC. Newly hired and rehired eligible employees are automatically enrolled in the Plan at a 6% before-tax contribution rate unless they otherwise enroll themselves or opt out of the Plan. Participants who are automatically enrolled in the Plan, but do not make an investment election, are invested in the Plan’s default investment, which is the Plan’s “target retirement date” fund consistent with the participant’s projected year of retirement. Further, unless the participant elects a different rate, for employees who are automatically enrolled, their contribution rate is automatically increased by 1% annually until they reach a before-tax contribution rate of 15% or reach the maximum statutory dollar contribution limit. Participants who are age 50 or over by the end of the Plan year are permitted to make additional contributions up to 49% of their eligible pay, known as "catch-up" contributions, up to the applicable statutory limit. There is no automatic enrollment for catch‑up contributions. (d) Employer Contributions During 2025 and 2024, employer contributions consisted of three components: the Company matching contribution, fixed contribution, and transition contribution. The Company matching contribution was equal to 100% of the participant’s before-tax contributions up to 6% of the participant’s eligible compensation (up to the annual compensation maximum set by the PRIRC) for eligible employees at all compensation levels. For Plan year ended December 31, 2024, Company matching contributions did not exceed the lesser of the participant’s contribution or 6% of the participant’s eligible compensation up to the statutory limit. Effective January 1, 2025, Company matching contributions did not exceed the lesser of the participant's contribution or 6% of the participant's eligible compensation up to $200,000. Catch‑up contributions are not subject to matching contributions. Participants must contribute to the Plan to receive Company matching contributions. A fixed contribution of up to 2% of eligible pay is credited to the Plan accounts of eligible employees whose qualifying annual compensation, as defined in the Plan, is $100,000 or less. An annual transition contribution is credited to the Plan accounts of certain employees who were eligible to receive benefits under the Plan, the Citigroup Pension Plan, and the Citigroup Ownership Program in 2007, prior to the Plans’ redesign. If an employee’s total benefit opportunity under the three programs was greater than his or her benefit opportunity under the Plan, an additional transition contribution is credited. Participants receiving this transition contribution generally have long service and must be continuously employed by the Company since December 31, 2006. Matching, fixed, and transition contributions are invested in the same manner as a participant's contributions, or in the Plan's qualified default investment alternative in the absence of such an election. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the employer contribution receivable was $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Company contributions relating to 2025 and 2024 were received and credited to participant accounts during the first quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively. (e) Participant Accounts The Plan maintains a separate account for each participant, to which contributions, expenses, and investment gains and losses are allocated. Participants may elect to invest their account balance among the investment fund options offered under the Plan in whole increments of 1%. A participant may elect to suspend or resume his or her contributions, subject to the Plan’s notice requirements. In addition, a participant may change the rate of his or her contributions, subject to the Plan’s notice requirements, and may elect to change the allocation of future contributions among the funds daily. A participant may also elect to transfer the value of his or her contributions in whole increments of 1% to other Plan investment funds, subject to certain restrictions. Changes requested by participants are implemented as soon as administratively practicable, in accordance with the Plan document. (f) Rollover and Transfer Contributions The Plan accepts qualifying rollover contributions made by participants in cash from other Puerto Rico qualified plans. However, rollovers from an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) are not permitted under Puerto Rico law. Transfers or rollovers to the Plan may only be made with the approval of the Plan’s management and do not affect any other contributions made by or on behalf of a participant. Rollover contributions into the Plan in 2025 amounted to $113,039. There were no rollover contributions into the Plan in 2024. (g) Investment Options Plan assets are held in a trust fund and are invested in the investment options offered under the Plan at the direction of Plan participants, in accordance with the Plan document. Subject to certain restrictions, Plan participants may move a portion or all of their account balances among the Plan’s investment options through a fund transfer, reallocation, or rebalance, generally not more frequently than once every seven calendar days. Restrictions are subject to change at any time depending on generally applicable Plan rules or the requirements of the funds. To the extent required by the compliance procedures of a mutual fund to ensure the fund’s adherence to the market timing rules mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and upon request by a mutual fund, the Plan may provide reports to the fund detailing Plan participants’ trading activity in that particular fund. The Company also may restrict the ability of certain Plan participants to invest in or divest from the Citigroup Common Stock Fund. In general, no investment-related transaction costs are associated with the Plan, though the funds have the right to impose redemption fees, should they decide to do so. The Plan does not directly participate in securities lending programs; however, there are investment funds that engage in securities lending which are available to Plan participants. The investment manager for an investment option determines the terms of, and the extent to which, securities lending is used. Engaging in securities lending is intended to benefit Plan participants investing in such investment offering. (h) Vesting The rights of a participant to his or her own contributions, matching contributions, and any earnings thereon are at all times fully vested and non-forfeitable. Company fixed and transition contributions, as described in note 1(d), vest according to the following schedule: •Upon completion of three years of service, any fixed and/or transition contributions made on a participant’s behalf will be immediately vested; • If a participant reaches age 55, dies, or becomes disabled while in service; • In the case of a full or partial termination of the Plan or complete discontinuance of contributions under the Plan. Once a participant is vested in his or her Company contributions, those contributions are available for distribution or rollover once he or she leaves the Company or is otherwise eligible to take a distribution, as more fully described in notes 1(k) and 1(l). (i) Forfeited Accounts Forfeitures may be used to offset expenses of the Plan. During 2025 and 2024, $1,309 and $1,612, respectively, of forfeitures were used to offset Plan expenses. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, unallocated forfeitures were $152 and $399, respectively. (j) Loans Receivable from Participants Subject to the Plan’s provisions and the requirements contained within ERISA and PRIRC, participants may apply for up to two loans from the Plan at a fixed annual interest rate equal to the prime rate, as published in The Wall Street Journal for the fifteenth business day of the month in which the loan application is initiated, plus 1%. Loans may be made for a minimum amount of $1,000, the maximum of which would be the lesser of 50% of the participant’s vested account balance or $50,000, less the highest outstanding loan balance in the previous twelve months. The interest rates for loans receivable from participants as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 ranged from 4.25% to 9.50% in both years. Loan terms range from 1 to 5 years for general purpose loans or up to 20 years for the purchase of a primary residence. Loans receivable from participants are valued at unpaid principal plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Each loan is secured through the vested balance in the participant’s Plan account. If a participant defaults on his or her loan by failing to make timely repayments, the outstanding principal and interest due on the loan is treated as a deemed distribution and reported as a taxable distribution to the participant as soon as administratively practicable in the year of default. If the participant has an outstanding loan and takes a distribution of his or her Plan benefit, the outstanding principal and interest due on the loan is deducted from the account balance before an amount is distributed to the participant. A participant applying for a loan through the Plan will be charged a $50 loan application fee. The loan application fee is nonrefundable and will be used to offset the administrative expenses associated with the loan. The fee will be deducted from the participant’s Plan account at the time his or her loan request is processed. (k) Withdrawals Prior to termination of employment, a participant may withdraw, subject to the Plan’s notice requirements, all or a portion of the vested value of his or her participant account if the participant has attained age 59½ or becomes totally and permanently disabled, or a certain portion of the value of his or her participant account in the event of demonstrated financial hardship, subject to the Plan’s provisions. Withdrawals to which a participant is entitled are the amounts that can be provided by the contributions and income thereon (including net realized and unrealized investment gains and losses) allocated to each participant’s account, less allocated expenses. Withdrawals from the Citigroup Common Stock Fund may be paid in either shares of common stock or cash at the discretion of the participant, with the exception of a hardship withdrawal, which must be paid in cash. Fractional shares and withdrawals from other funds are paid in cash. (l) Distributions A participant, after leaving the Company, can have the total of his or her vested account distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. If the value of a participant’s account equals or exceeds $7,000, the participant may elect to defer the commencement of his or her distribution until his or her normal retirement age, age 65, or may request a distribution at any time in the form of a lump‑sum payment or installments. The value of this distribution will be based on the value of the participant’s vested account at the valuation date that coincides with the distribution, to the extent administratively practicable. If the value of a participant’s account is less than $7,000, the Plan will distribute the participant’s account upon termination of employment. Distributions to which a participant is entitled are the vested amounts that can be provided by the contributions and income thereon (including net realized and unrealized investment gains and losses) allocated to each participant’s account, less allocated expenses. Fractional shares and distributions from other funds are paid in cash.
