The short version

What this means One deal on file with the SEC. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Benjamin Allen (7 shared filings), Bjorn Reynolds (7 shared filings), Bradford Oberwager (7 shared filings), Daniel Gill (7 shared filings), Eyal Goldstein (7 shared filings) and 3 others.

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 (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 13 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 13 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 7 public filings for John Pence and found 2 differences: Offering amount changed between filings; Same name, different state: "John Pence" (OR) is a separate record.

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

2 differences found between the filings for John Pence (compared 7 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Aug 15, 2025 – Feb 13, 2026

Offering amount changed between filings — ASURE SOFTWARE INC

The Aug 15, 2025 filing says $2,837,000 offered; the Feb 13, 2026 Form D/A says $4,000,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Aug 6, 2012

Same name, different state: "John Pence" (OR) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is TX. A separate record, "John Pence" with address state OR, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by C & J Foods, LLC (Aug 6, 2012). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Mar 8, 2024 to Oct 16, 2026; the other has one filing dated Aug 6, 2012.

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

"Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
