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

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) — 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 5 public filings for JOHN C BOTDORF and found 10 differences, 3 worth asking the sponsor about: 4 filings report more than 10% of the money raised going to insiders; Form D filed 616 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.

JOHN C BOTDORF appears on 2 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target

ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC (last filing Mar 4, 2019; $3,486,110 sold of $10,000,000); ZenVault Medical Corp (last filing Jun 10, 2015; $678,100 sold of $3,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

Worth asking · Oct 2, 2013 – Jun 10, 2015

Form D filed 616 days after the first sale — ZenVault Medical Corp

The filing says the first sale was Oct 2, 2013. The Form D was filed Jun 10, 2015 — 616 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 601 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
Worth asking · Mar 17, 2008 – Mar 16, 2011

Form D filed 1,094 days after the first sale — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC

The filing says the first sale was Mar 17, 2008. The Form D was filed Mar 16, 2011 — 1,094 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 1,079 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 10, 2015 – Apr 6, 2015

Form D filed 27 days after the first sale — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC

The filing says the first sale was Mar 10, 2015. The Form D was filed Apr 6, 2015 — 27 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 12 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.

Note · Mar 17, 2008 – Jun 10, 2015

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 — ZenVault Medical Corp (latest filing Jun 10, 2015) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC (latest filing Apr 6, 2015) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC (latest filing Oct 10, 2013) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC (latest filing Mar 16, 2011) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC (latest filing Apr 16, 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 · Mar 16, 2011 – Oct 10, 2013

JOHN C BOTDORF's role changed at ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC: director → executive officer, director

The Mar 16, 2011 filing lists JOHN C BOTDORF as director; the Oct 10, 2013 Form D lists executive officer, director.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Sources
Note · Apr 16, 2009 – Oct 10, 2013

JOHN C BOTDORF is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "John C Botdorf" on 3 filings (from Apr 16, 2009), and "John Botdorf" on 2 filings (from Oct 10, 2013).

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

Sources
Note · Apr 16, 2009 – Oct 10, 2013

Industry group changed between filings — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC

"Computers" (Apr 16, 2009 to Mar 16, 2011); then "Other Technology" (Oct 10, 2013 to Apr 6, 2015).

What this means The issuer described its business differently on different forms. Often it is just a different box ticked; sometimes the deal itself changed. Ask which business your money is in.

Sources
Note · Apr 16, 2009 – Oct 10, 2013

Reported revenue range changed between filings — ZERONINES TECHNOLOGY INC

"$1 - $1,000,000" (Apr 16, 2009); then "Decline to Disclose" (Oct 10, 2013).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

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).
