Facebook: so who got the cash?

I've been looking everywhere for this: how much of the of the facebook IPO went to facebook itself? not to Mark, not to peter thiel, not to eduardo, etc. How much of the IPO went for the Facebook Inc. corporation?

about 6.8 billion give or take. For future reference you can get that info off of the prospectus that the company files (this is off the may 18th). The company sold 180 million shares and the other shareholders sold 241,233,615.

Edit: Thus you can see that Facebook will net out $6,764,760,000 once they back out commissions and fees.
