The short version

John Tough is listed as an executive officer and director on 41 SEC Form D filings by 26 issuers between May 2017 and Jul 2026. Largest by amount reported sold: Energize Ventures Fund II LP (Chicago, IL — pooled investment fund — 2020–2021; $327.7M reported sold to 87 investors), Energize Ventures Fund III LP (Chicago, IL — pooled investment fund — 2023–2025; $311.8M reported sold to 82 investors), Energize Ventures Fund LP (Chicago, IL — pooled investment fund — 2017–2018; $150M reported sold to 50 investors), Nozomi Networks, Inc.

(Montclair, NJ — other technology — 2019–2022; $66.5M reported sold to 9 investors) and 21 more (all listed below).

What this means That is a lot of deals — 26 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 9 years. Across those companies the filings report $1.13B sold in total.

Listed alongside Michael Polsky (26 shared filings), Juan Muldoon (23 shared filings), James Murphy (20 shared filings), Katie McClain (19 shared filings), Energize Ventures LLC (14 shared filings, management entity) and 55 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.

24 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Energize (33 issuers, $1.35B reported sold, 2012–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Energize has 33 companies on file and $1.35B 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) — 18 court cases matching the name, 7 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 25 records came back, including 4 court cases still open — open cases can take years and cost money. 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 41 public filings for John Tough and found 9 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: 4 court cases name John Tough; 7 Form Ds were filed more than 15 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.

Minimum investment changed between filings — Energize Ventures Fund LP

The May 31, 2017 filing lists a minimum of $0; the Mar 21, 2018 Form D/A lists $1,000,000.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

Industry group changed between filings — Sitetracker, Inc.

"Other" (Jun 6, 2019 to Jan 6, 2021); then "Other Technology" (Oct 19, 2022).

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.

Address moved from Palo Alto, CA to Montclair, NJ — Sitetracker, Inc.

The people listed on the Jan 6, 2021 filing give Palo Alto, CA; on the Oct 19, 2022 filing they give Montclair, NJ.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

Note · May 31, 2017 – Jul 30, 2026

John Tough is listed with 3 different address states: IL, CA, NJ

IL on 32 filings (May 31, 2017 to Jul 30, 2026); CA on 8 filings (Dec 19, 2017 to Dec 3, 2021); NJ on 1 filing (Oct 19, 2022).

What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.

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

2 of 34 offerings report sales commissions totalling $3,022,665; 1 reports finder's fees totalling $195,000; 0 report proceeds to related persons. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

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 26

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

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); 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)

A person is never an adviser firm. 6 of the 26 issuers this person is listed on match a Form ADV adviser (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026): Energize EMR LLC, EVIII Climate SPV A LLC, Energize Ventures Fund III LP, Energize 5 SPV I LLC, Energize Nira SPV I LLC, EV FS SPV LLC.

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 Tough 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 26 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.
