The short version

John Santoleri is listed as an executive officer, director, and promoter on 28 SEC Form D filings by 8 issuers between Mar 2009 and Sep 2023. Largest by amount reported sold: BERENS CAPITAL ASIA (EX-JAPAN) LLC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2009–2015; $168.6M reported sold to 140 investors), BERENS CAPITAL ASIA (EX-JAPAN) OFFSHORE LTD. (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2009–2010; $66.2M reported sold to 48 investors), STONEWATER CAPITAL 2004 L P (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2009; $60.8M reported sold to 47 investors), STONEWORK PARTNERS LP (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2013–2016; $38.2M reported sold to 23 investors), BERENS CAPITAL GREATER CHINA LLC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2009–2015; $22.5M reported sold to 14 investors) and 3 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 8 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, director, and promoter, over about 14 years. Across those companies the filings report $413.8M sold in total.

Listed alongside Frank Brochin (23 shared filings), Ernest H. Pomerantz (21 shared filings), James P. Canales (15 shared filings), Judy Halaby (4 shared filings), Peter Cassidy (2 shared filings) and 6 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.

All 8 issuers belong to the sponsor group Berens (18 issuers, $2.48B reported sold, 2009–2023).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Berens has 18 companies on file and $2.48B 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, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, 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 28 public filings for John Santoleri and found 11 differences, 6 worth asking the sponsor about: 4 bankruptcy cases name the subject or team members; John Santoleri appears on 3 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target; 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 Santoleri appears on 3 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target

BERENS CAPITAL GREATER CHINA LLC (last filing Nov 1, 2016; $22,450,211 sold of $100,000,000); StoneWater Capital Opportunities Fund, LP (last filing Mar 19, 2014; $21,060,000 sold of $100,000,000); StoneWater Capital India LLC (last filing Mar 13, 2009; $16,826,271 sold of $100,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

Form D filed 2,077 days after the first sale — STONEWORK PARTNERS LP

The filing says the first sale was May 1, 2008. The Form D was filed Jan 7, 2014 — 2,077 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 2,062 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.

listed as "John Santoleri" on 24 filings (from Mar 13, 2009), and "John D. Santoleri" on 4 filings (from Jan 8, 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.

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.

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.

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).

Deals 8

Every issuer that named John Santoleri on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.

One team, 18 deal companies. John Santoleri is listed on 8 of them.

Sources

Issuers are grouped when their Form D filings share related persons, a management entity or a business address (automatic match from the filings). "Listed" marks the issuers that name John Santoleri.

Same business address

51 other issuers file from the same address (first 50 shown)

A shared address can mean the same team, a shared office building or a registered agent. It is a lead, not a conclusion.

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); KY (Kentucky Secretary of State — Business Entity Search (sosbes.sos.ky.gov), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 8 issuers this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.

Other offering types (Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding)

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to John Santoleri by design. Searched property records in Hillsborough County FL (Clerk recorded-document index Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026 + FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Miami-Dade County FL (FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Harris County TX (HCAD 2026 ownership roll), Dallas County TX (DCAD 2026 ownership roll), New York City ACRIS documents and PLUTO ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers, Cook County IL sale and ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers (814,874 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:59 PM ET) for the 8 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.

Public profiles and social

Websites and social links of the issuers John Santoleri is listed on: none on file. No website or social profile named in BERENS CAPITAL ASIA (EX-JAPAN) LLC's SEC filings (Form C, Reg A, Form ADV; checked Oct 24, 2026).
