The short version

Joseph Zednik is listed as an executive officer and promoter on 6 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Apr 2009 and Aug 2013: Prescient Ridge Fund, LLC (Chicago, IL — pooled investment fund — 2009–2013; $67.9M reported sold to 139 investors).

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 Christopher August Olson (6 shared filings), David Shorr (6 shared filings), Prescient Ridge Management, LLC (6 shared filings, management entity), Alan Swimmer (1 shared filing) and Jeff Olson (1 shared filing).

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Joseph. 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) — 1 court case matching the name, 1 bankruptcy case matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 2 records came back, including 1 court case 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 6 public filings for Joseph Zednik and found 4 differences: No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; Address moved from Highland Park, IL to Chicago, IL; 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.

Washington (dw.courts.wa.gov; bulk index reports under a JISC data-dissemination agreement), Delaware (CourtConnect; Court of Chancery not included) and Arizona (apps.azcourts.gov/publicaccess, which has an official channel to request high-volume access) are the candidates; PartnerFacts will request written permission before any automated search.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

4 differences found between the filings for Joseph Zednik (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Mar 1, 2006 – Aug 30, 2013

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Prescient Ridge Fund, LLC (latest filing Aug 30, 2013)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Aug 30, 2013 (first sale Mar 1, 2006). It reports $67,863,796 sold of an indefinite amount 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.

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

None reported on 1 offering — no sales commissions, finder's fees or proceeds 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.
