5/5/2020 Treasury Department Announces Pricing of Public Offering of Sterling Financial Corporation Common Stock U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Press Center Treasury Department Announces Pricing of Public Offering of Sterling Financial Corporation Common Stock 8/14/2012 WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced that it priced a secondary public offering of the 5,738,637 shares of common stock of Sterling Financial Corporation (the “Company”) it holds at $20.00 per share. The aggregate net proceeds to Treasury from the offering are expected to be $113.3 million. After this offering, Treasury will no longer hold any shares of the Company’s common stock. Treasury will continue to hold warrants to purchase 97,541 shares of the Company’s common stock – the disposition of which will provide additional proceeds to taxpayers. Treasury’s initial preferred stock investment in the Company, made as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program’s (TARP) Capital Purchase Program, was exchanged for common stock on August 26, 2010 as part of a larger recapitalization of the Company. TARP’s bank programs have already earned a significant profit for taxpayers. Including the expected proceeds from today’s transaction, Treasury has recovered $265 billion from TARP’s bank programs through repayments, dividends, interest, and other income – compared to the $245 billion initially invested. Each additional dollar recovered from TARP’s bank programs is an additional dollar of profit for taxpayers. The closing is expected to occur on or about August 20, 2012, subject to customary closing conditions. FBR Capital Markets & Co. and Sandler O’Neill + Partners, L.P. are the joint bookrunning managers for the offering. A registration statement relating to the shares in this offering and shares held by certain other selling shareholders was previously filed by the Company and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). A preliminary prospectus relating to the offering was filed by Sterling on August 14, 2012, and a final prospectus, when available, will be filed by Sterling with the SEC. These filings are (or will be) available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus supplement and the prospectus in the registration statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and this offering.
