The short version

Darol Lain is listed as an executive officer and director on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Feb 2010 and Aug 2010: LAST MILE INC (Lebanon, PA — telecommunications — 2010; $2.75M reported sold to 21 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Aug 2010. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Brian Danzis (2 shared filings), Carl Schleicher (2 shared filings), Frederick Bittenbender (2 shared filings), Kevin Beebe (2 shared filings), Randy Eckles (2 shared filings) and 2 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Darol. Each name links to their own page.

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Last (3 issuers, $2.85M reported sold, 2010–2012).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Last has 3 companies on file and $2.85M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 1 bankruptcy case matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 1 record came back. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 2 public filings for Darol Lain and found 3 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: 7 bankruptcy cases name the subject or team members; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

Note · Jul 21, 2010 – Aug 5, 2010

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — LAST MILE INC (latest filing Aug 5, 2010)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Aug 5, 2010 (first sale Jul 21, 2010). It reports $2,750,000 sold of $3,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

5. Money to insiders
