Citigroup Announces the Acceleration of Two Series of ETNs

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc. (“CGMHI”) announced today that it will accelerate at its option, and in full, the two series of exchange-traded notes listed in the table below (the “ETNs”).

ETN Name	Exchange	ETN Ticker	CUSIP	Underlying Index
VelocityShares^TM 3x Long Crude Oil ETNs	NYSE Arca	UWT	17325E291	S&P GSCI® Crude Oil Index ER
VelocityShares^TM 3x Inverse Crude Oil ETNs	NYSE Arca	DWT	17325E309

Holders of the ETNs will receive a cash payment per ETN in an amount (the “Optional Acceleration Redemption Amount”) equal to the closing indicative value of the respective series of ETNs on the final valuation date of the Optional Acceleration Valuation Period. The Optional Acceleration Valuation Period will be the period of five consecutive index business days beginning on March 25, 2020 and expected to end on March 31, 2020. The payment upon optional acceleration is based upon a declining exposure to the ETNs’ underlying index over the Optional Acceleration Valuation Period. The closing indicative value of the ETNs will be calculated on each day during the Optional Acceleration Valuation Period so that the applicable leverage of the ETNs does not reset after the period begins. The Optional Acceleration Redemption Amount is expected to be paid to investors on April 3, 2020. More information on the manner in which the Optional Acceleration Redemption Amount will be calculated, including the circumstances in which the dates specified herein may be postponed, is available in the pricing supplement for the ETNs, which is available at the following hyperlink:

As described in more detail in the pricing supplement for the ETNs, if a trigger event occurs prior to the end of the Optional Acceleration Valuation Period, holders of the ETNs will not receive the Optional Acceleration Redemption Amount described above, but rather an amount determined as set forth in the pricing supplement for the ETNs.

The last day of trading for the ETNs is expected to be April 2, 2020.

None of the other ETNs issued by CGMHI are affected by this announcement.
