Lets make it even simpler

Why in the _ell is the taxpayer being forced to provide a company with tax payer funds so they can play in the stock market at all?

That is the biggest question of all!

The US Treasury has not offered stock for sale. The offer was made by FNB United Corp. as a holding company.

The prospectus details the companies that are to sell their already owned FNB United shares of common stock. This includes Waterstone.

The number of shares related to a TARP warrant in the offering is 22,072 shares of stock at an exercise price of $16.00 per share.

History
In February 2009, the US Treasury was issued the warrant by FNB United as part of a Recapitalization plan. FNB issued preferred stock and a warrant, or the TARP Warrant, to the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) that infused $51.5 million into FNB. The TARP (CPP) warrant was to purchase 2,207,143 shares of FNB's common stock at an initial per share
exercise price of $3.50.

On October 21, 2011, Treasury completed the exchange of all FNB United Corp. preferred stock and warrants held by Treasury for 108,555,303 shares of FNB United common stock along with an amended and restated warrant. After a one-for-one hundred reverse stock split the common shares amount became 1,085,553.03 shares. The warrant shares amounted to 22,072 shares with an adjusted the exercise price of $16.00 per share.
