The short version

Ebrahim Simhaee is listed as an executive officer and director on 10 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Feb 2012 and Aug 2017: CarbonLite Industries LLC (Los Angeles, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2012–2013; $20M reported sold to 23 investors), CarbonLite Holdings LLC (Los Angeles, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2014–2016; $14.4M reported sold to 36 investors), CarbonLite Holdings LLC - Series H (Los Angeles, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2016; $14M reported sold to 37 investors) and CarbonLite Holdings LLC - Series T (Los Angeles, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2016–2017; $7M reported sold to 35 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 5 years. Across those companies the filings report $55.3M sold in total.

Listed alongside Benjamin Shapiro (10 shared filings), Kamran Neman (10 shared filings), Leon Farahnik (10 shared filings), Matthew Shapiro (10 shared filings), Richard Zirkler (10 shared filings) and 6 others.

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

All 4 issuers belong to the sponsor group Carbonlite (4 issuers, $35.7M reported sold, 2010–2017).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Carbonlite has 4 companies on file and $35.7M 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) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 10 public filings for Ebrahim Simhaee and found 12 differences, 7 worth asking the sponsor about: Amount sold went down between filings; Investor count went down between filings; 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.

The Dec 6, 2016 filing reports 35 investors; the Aug 31, 2017 Form D/A reports 28 investors.

4 Form Ds were filed more than 15 days after the first sale

Form D filed 70 days after the first sale — CarbonLite Holdings LLC - Series H · Form D filed 66 days after the first sale — CarbonLite Holdings LLC · Form D filed 44 days after the first sale — CarbonLite Holdings LLC - Series T · Form D filed 45 days after the first sale — CarbonLite Industries LLC

Sources
Note · Sep 30, 2011 – Aug 22, 2013

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — CarbonLite Industries LLC (latest filing Aug 22, 2013)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Aug 22, 2013 (first sale Sep 30, 2011). It reports $2,600,000 sold of $5,600,000 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.

Sources
Note · Jun 5, 2012 – Nov 16, 2012

Ebrahim Simhaee's role changed at CarbonLite Industries LLC: executive officer → director

The Jun 5, 2012 filing lists Ebrahim Simhaee as executive officer; the Nov 16, 2012 Form D/A lists director.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Sources

5 offerings changed their target amount between filings

Offering amount lowered between filings — CarbonLite Holdings LLC - Series T · Offering amount changed between filings — CarbonLite Holdings LLC · Offering amount lowered between filings — CarbonLite Industries LLC · Offering amount lowered between filings — CarbonLite Industries LLC · Offering amount changed between filings — CarbonLite Industries LLC

Minimum investment changed between filings — CarbonLite Holdings LLC

The Jan 6, 2014 filing lists a minimum of $0; the Apr 6, 2016 Form D/A lists $25,000.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

Sources
Note · Oct 12, 2011 – Jun 5, 2012

Reported revenue range changed between filings — CarbonLite Industries LLC

"Decline to Disclose" (Oct 12, 2011); then "Not Applicable" (Feb 17, 2012); then "Decline to Disclose" (Jun 5, 2012).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

Sources
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.
