Negotiated Underwriting A process in which both the purchase price and the offering price for a new issue are negotiated between the issuer and a single underwriter. Investopedia Says: The underwriter pays the issuer a purchase price, and the public pays the offering price. The spread between the purchase price and the public offering price represents the proceeds to the underwriter.
