Answer:
The amount paid to the issuer is $2,971,080.
Explanation:

Though only 122,400 shares are sold to the public.
The initial selling price is $24.
The spread percentage is given at 8.3%.
The amount paid to the issuer will be
=Total number of shares*Initial selling price (1-spread)
=135,000*24*(1-0.083)
=135,000*24*0.917
=2,971,080
So, the amount paid to the issuer is $2,971,080.
