treasury 2019s capital purchase program , we issued 20000 shares of our series b fixed-rate cumulative perpetual preferred stock , $ 100000 liquidation preference per share , and a warrant to purchase 5576208 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $ 53.80 per share , to treasury , and received aggregate proceeds of $ 2 billion .
the aggregate proceeds were allocated to the preferred stock and the warrant based on their relative fair values on the date of issuance .
as a result , approximately $ 1.88 billion and $ 121 million , respectively , were allocated to the preferred stock and the warrant .
the difference between the initial value of $ 1.88 billion allocated to the preferred stock and the liquidation amount of $ 2 billion was intended to be charged to retained earnings and credited to the preferred stock over the period that the preferred stock was outstanding , using the effective yield method .
for 2008 and 2009 , these charges to retained earnings reduced net income available to common shareholders by $ 4 million and $ 11 million , respectively , and reduced basic and diluted earnings per common share for those periods .
these calculations are presented in note 22 .
the preferred shares qualified as tier 1 regulatory capital , and paid cumulative quarterly dividends at a rate of 5% ( 5 % ) per year .
