The short version

Eric Rothfus is listed as a director on 11 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Oct 2009 and Aug 2012: INTRANSA, INC (Cupertino, CA — other technology — 2009–2012; $7.66M reported sold to 17 investors) and EQUIPHON, INC. (Austin, TX — computers — 2009; $1.25M reported sold to 1 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 3 years. Across those companies the filings report $8.91M sold in total.

Listed alongside Amit Srivastava (10 shared filings), Paul Bartlett (10 shared filings), Paul Matteucci (10 shared filings), Rodgers C. Broomhead, Jr. (10 shared filings), Robert Mally (6 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 Eric. Each name links to their own page.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 2 court cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 2 records 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 11 public filings for Eric Rothfus and found 7 differences: Form D filed 34 days after the first sale; Offering amount changed 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.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

7 differences found between the filings for Eric Rothfus (compared 11 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jan 20, 2012 – Feb 23, 2012

Form D filed 34 days after the first sale — INTRANSA, INC

The filing says the first sale was Jan 20, 2012. The Form D was filed Feb 23, 2012 — 34 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 19 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Jul 11, 2012 – Aug 30, 2012

Offering amount changed between filings — INTRANSA, INC

The Jul 11, 2012 filing says $600,000 offered; the Aug 30, 2012 Form D/A says $1,000,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Feb 23, 2012 – Jun 15, 2012

Offering amount changed between filings — INTRANSA, INC

The Feb 23, 2012 filing says $6,792,825 offered; the Jun 15, 2012 Form D/A says $7,673,729.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Jun 3, 2010 – Aug 24, 2010

Offering amount changed between filings — INTRANSA, INC

The Jun 3, 2010 filing says $1,879,559 offered; the Aug 24, 2010 Form D/A says $6,357,726.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Note · Oct 28, 2009 – Jun 15, 2012

5 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — INTRANSA, INC (latest filing Jun 15, 2012) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — INTRANSA, INC (latest filing Sep 7, 2011) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — INTRANSA, INC (latest filing Apr 21, 2011) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — INTRANSA, INC (latest filing Nov 10, 2009) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — EQUIPHON, INC. (latest filing Oct 29, 2009)

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. Ask the sponsor which of these raises have closed.

Sources
Note · May 8, 2009 – Mar 21, 2012

Same name, different state: "Eric Rothfus" (PA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is TX. A separate record, "Eric Rothfus" with address state PA, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by Alara Capital Partners, LLC (Mar 21, 2012). Both records have filings in the same period (Oct 29, 2009 to Mar 21, 2012).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Sources
Note · Feb 23, 2012 – Jun 15, 2012

Address moved from Cupertino, CA to Santa Clara, CA — INTRANSA, INC

The people listed on the Feb 23, 2012 filing give Cupertino, CA; on the Jun 15, 2012 filing they give Santa Clara, CA.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

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.

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
