The short version

Gordon Glade is listed as an executive officer, director, and promoter on 3 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Aug 2016 and Feb 2024: White River Creston LLC (Omaha, NE — agriculture — 2024; $14.5M reported sold to 6 investors), White River Soy Processing LLC (Omaha, NE — agriculture — 2024; $7.5M reported sold to 39 investors) and Green Plains Inc. (Omaha, NE — other energy — 2016).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, director, and promoter, over about 8 years. Across those companies the filings report $22M sold in total.

Listed alongside Walter Cronin (3 shared filings), Alain Treuer (1 shared filing), Brian D. Peterson (1 shared filing), Carl S. Bleyl (1 shared filing), Ejnar A. Knudsen III (1 shared filing) and 13 others.

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

2 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group White River (2 issuers, $22M reported sold, 2024).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. White River has 2 companies on file and $22M 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 SEC release 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 3 public filings for Gordon Glade and found 5 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Regulator action: Apple REIT Six, Inc.; Apple REIT Seven, Inc.; Apple REIT Eight, Inc.; Apple REIT Nine, Inc.; Apple Six Advisors, Inc.; Apple Seven Advisors, Inc.; Apple Eight Advisors, Inc.; Apple Nine Advisors, Inc.; Glade M. Knight; and Bryan F. Peery, CPA (Feb 12, 2014); 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.

Sources
Note · Aug 10, 2016

Gordon Glade appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target

Green Plains Inc. (last filing Aug 10, 2016; $0 sold of $170,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

Sources
Note · Feb 12, 2024 – Feb 15, 2024

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — White River Creston LLC (latest filing Feb 15, 2024)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 15, 2024 (first sale Feb 12, 2024). It reports $14,478,000 sold of $20,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

Gordon Glade is written 2 different ways on the filings

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.

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).
