The short version

Gary Branse is listed as an executive officer and director on 7 SEC Form D filings by 7 issuers between May 2010 and May 2020. Largest by amount reported sold: Sunshine State Certificates II, LLLP (Miami Lakes, FL — pooled investment fund — 2010; $26.4M reported sold to 38 investors), Sunshine State Certificates IV, LLLP (Miami Lakes, FL — pooled investment fund — 2012; $19.3M reported sold to 32 investors), Sunshine State Certificates III, LLLP (Miami Lakes, FL — pooled investment fund — 2011; $13.1M reported sold to 19 investors), Sunshine State Certificates V, LLLP (Miami Lakes, FL — pooled investment fund — 2014; $10.9M reported sold to 18 investors), Sunshine State Certificates VII, LLLP (Miami Lakes, FL — pooled investment fund — 2018; $7.2M reported sold to 7 investors) and 2 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 7 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 10 years. Across those companies the filings report $90.6M sold in total.

Listed alongside Thomas Bartelmo (7 shared filings), Cheryl Lubow (5 shared filings), Jay Kislak (5 shared filings), Stephen Braun (5 shared filings), J. I. Kislak, Inc. (4 shared filings, management entity) and 10 others.

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

All 7 issuers belong to the sponsor group Sunshine State Certificates (8 issuers, $94.7M reported sold, 2009–2020).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Sunshine State Certificates has 8 companies on file and $94.7M 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, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, 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 7 public filings for Gary Branse and found 3 differences: Gary Branse appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target; 4 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open; 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.

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.

How this is counted

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).

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); KY (Kentucky Secretary of State — Business Entity Search (sosbes.sos.ky.gov), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 7 issuers this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to Gary Branse by design.
