FORTUNE — Facebook (FB) has priced its highly-anticipated IPO at $38 per share, with a large number of shares coming from company insiders.

So here’s a quick list of who made what, based on the assumption that underwriters exercise their entire over-allotment, plus the value of their remaining position (based on $38 price):

  • Dustin Moskovitz: $285 million ($4.8 billion remaining)
  • Peter Thiel: $848 million ($852m remaining)
  • Mark Pincus: $4.1 million ($158 million remaining)
  • Sean Parker: $38 million ($2.27 billion remaining)
  • Reid Hoffman: $412 million ($138 million remaining)
  • Jim Breyer: $125 million ($320 million remaining)

INSTUTUTIONS

  • Accel Partners: $2 billion ($4.72 billion remaining)
  • DST Global: $2 billion ($3 billion remaining)
  • Goldman Sachs (GS): $1.25 billion ($1.25 billion remaining)
  • Greylock Partners: $332 million ($1.06 billion remaining)
  • Elevation Partners: $202 million ($1.32 billion remaining)
  • Mail.ru Group: $857 million ($1.28 billion remaining)

  • Microsoft Corp. (MSFT): $287 million ($959 million remaining)
  • Tiger Global Management: $1.03 billion ($1.02 billion remaining)

The only two listed institutional investors that opted not to sell any shares in the offering were T. Rowe Price and Andreessen Horowitz, whose stakes are valued at $251 million and $691 million, respectively. Facebook executives who aren’t selling include Sheryl Sandberg ($72 million already vested) and David Ebersman ($912 million already vested).
