The short version

Jeff Frank is listed as an executive officer and director on 3 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Jul 2012 and Apr 2013: Advanced Resource Technology Development LLC (Louisville, KY — industry reported as "Other" — 2013; $995K reported sold to 13 investors) and Advanced Resource Technologies (ART) LLC (Louisville, KY — industry reported as "Other" — 2012–2013; $242K reported sold to 14 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director. Across those companies the filings report $1.24M sold in total.

Listed alongside Gregory P. Murdock (3 shared filings), Robert Saunders (3 shared filings), John Gaensbauer (1 shared filing) and Mark Leonard (1 shared filing).

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

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Advanced (2 issuers, $1.24M reported sold, 2012–2013).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Advanced has 2 companies on file and $1.24M 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) — 4 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 4 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 3 public filings for Jeff Frank and found 6 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 201 days after the first sale; 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

6 differences found between the filings for Jeff Frank — 1 worth asking about (compared 3 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Apr 29, 2013 – Apr 30, 2013

Jeff Frank appears on 2 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target

Advanced Resource Technology Development LLC (last filing Apr 30, 2013; $995,000 sold of $2,000,000); Advanced Resource Technologies (ART) LLC (last filing Apr 29, 2013; $242,002 sold of $800,000). 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
Worth asking · Oct 10, 2012 – Apr 29, 2013

Form D filed 201 days after the first sale — Advanced Resource Technologies (ART) LLC

The filing says the first sale was Oct 10, 2012. The Form D was filed Apr 29, 2013 — 201 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 186 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Mar 27, 2013 – Apr 30, 2013

Form D filed 34 days after the first sale — Advanced Resource Technology Development LLC

The filing says the first sale was Mar 27, 2013. The Form D was filed Apr 30, 2013 — 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 · Mar 27, 2013 – Apr 30, 2013

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Advanced Resource Technology Development LLC (latest filing Apr 30, 2013)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 30, 2013 (first sale Mar 27, 2013). It reports $995,000 sold of $2,000,000 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.

Note · Mar 6, 2018 – Apr 12, 2018

Same name, different state: "Jeff Frank" (CA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is KY. A separate record, "Jeff Frank" with address state CA, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by ERP Power Holdings, LLC (Apr 12, 2018). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jul 31, 2012 to Apr 30, 2013; the other runs Mar 6, 2018 to Apr 12, 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.

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.

5. Money to insiders

"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.
