New Issue: $14.6 million First National TARP preferreds price at Treasury auction

By Stephanie N. Rotondo

Phoenix, Aug. 24 - The U.S. Department of the Treasury sold $14.6 million series A and B fixed-rate cumulative perpetual preferreds originally issued by First National Corp., the agency said in a press release on Friday.

The Strasberg, Va.-based bank previously registered 13,900 shares of the series A $1,000-par preferreds and 695 of the series B $1,000-par preferreds.

The series A preferreds were priced at $882.50, and the series Bs were priced at $921.50. Total proceeds came to $12.7 million.

Dividends on the $1,000-par preferreds are payable on the 15th of February, May, August and November. The dividend is fixed at 5% thought May 14, 2014, at which time it will convert to a 9% coupon, presuming the preferred shares are not redeemed by that point.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Sandler O'Neill + Partners, LP are the joint bookrunning managers and auction agents.

Houlihan Lokey Capital Inc. acted as financial advisor to the Treasury.

First National will not receive any proceeds from the sale.
