(Wilmington, DE — pooled investment fund — 2018; $44.7M reported sold to 25 investors) and Bench Walk Legal Capital Partners I, L.P. (Wilmington, DE — pooled investment fund — 2019).

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

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Bench Walk (92 issuers, $933.1M reported sold, 2018–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Bench Walk has 92 companies on file and $933.1M 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 (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 3 court cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 3 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 2 public filings for Jay Eisenhofer and found 4 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Jay Eisenhofer is no longer listed on the Oct 26, 2018 amendment; 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

4 differences found between the filings for Jay Eisenhofer — 1 worth asking about (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Aug 28, 2018 – Oct 26, 2018

Jay Eisenhofer is no longer listed on the Oct 26, 2018 amendment — Bench Walk 18b, L.P.

Jay Eisenhofer appears on the Aug 28, 2018 Form D (executive officer) but not on the Oct 26, 2018 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Sources
Note · Aug 10, 2018 – Aug 28, 2018

Form D filed 18 days after the first sale — Bench Walk 18b, L.P.

The filing says the first sale was Aug 10, 2018. The Form D was filed Aug 28, 2018 — 18 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 3 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 · Aug 28, 2018 – Oct 26, 2018

Offering amount lowered between filings — Bench Walk 18b, L.P.

The Aug 28, 2018 filing says $45,000,000 offered; the Oct 26, 2018 Form D/A says $44,743,000.

What this means The target raise got smaller. That can mean the plan shrank or the sponsor stopped early. Ask what changed in the deal.

Note · Mar 29, 2018

Same name, different state: "Jay Eisenhofer" (NY) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is DE. A separate record, "Jay Eisenhofer" with address state NY, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Bench Walk 18a, L.P. (Mar 29, 2018). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Aug 28, 2018 to Nov 26, 2019; the other has one filing dated Mar 29, 2018.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

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).
