The short version

Mark Edelman is listed as an executive officer and director on 11 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Jul 2015 and Mar 2019: Midstream Methanol LLC (Austin, TX — other energy — 2015–2019; $3M reported sold to 83 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 John Wooley (11 shared filings), Philip E. Lewis (11 shared filings), Ronald E. Oligney (11 shared filings), Ted Bauer (10 shared filings), Angela L. Sandford (7 shared filings) and 1 others.

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Zeep (2 issuers, $3.15M reported sold, 2009–2019).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Zeep has 2 companies on file and $3.15M 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, 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 11 public filings for Mark Edelman and found 6 differences: No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; Offering amount changed between filings; 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.

4. Differences between public sources

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

6 differences found between the filings for Mark Edelman (compared 11 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Feb 28, 2019 – Mar 11, 2019

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Midstream Methanol LLC (latest filing Mar 11, 2019)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 11, 2019 (first sale Feb 28, 2019). It reports $150,000 sold of $1,000,000 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.

Note · Jul 14, 2015 – Oct 12, 2017

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Midstream Methanol LLC (latest filing Oct 12, 2017)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Oct 12, 2017 (first sale Jul 14, 2015). It reports $3,000,000 sold of $5,000,000 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.

Form D/A · Oct 12, 2017 ↗Midstream Methanol LLC — PartnerFacts page ↗
Sources
Note · Oct 31, 2016 – Jan 11, 2017

Offering amount changed between filings — Midstream Methanol LLC

The Oct 31, 2016 filing says $3,000,000 offered; the Jan 11, 2017 Form D/A says $5,000,000.

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.

Note · Jul 28, 2015 – Mar 11, 2019

Industry group changed between filings — Midstream Methanol LLC

"Other" (Jul 28, 2015 to Oct 12, 2017); then "Other Energy" (Mar 11, 2019).

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.

Note · Jul 28, 2015 – Mar 11, 2019

Reported revenue range changed between filings — Midstream Methanol LLC

"No Revenues" (Jul 28, 2015); then "$1 - $1,000,000" (Mar 11, 2019).

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.

Note · Jul 12, 2013

Same name, different state: "Mark A Edelman" (IA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is TX. A separate record, "Mark A Edelman" with address state IA, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by American Green Gasoline, LLC (Jul 12, 2013). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jul 28, 2015 to Mar 11, 2019; the other has one filing dated Jul 12, 2013.

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.

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
