The short version

Mark Sinatra is listed as an executive officer on 4 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Feb 2011 and Nov 2022: ETA Equity Fund I, LLC (Dallas, TX — pooled investment fund — 2020–2022; $10.5M reported sold to 44 investors) and GORDIAN CAPITAL LLC (Dallas, TX — pooled investment fund — 2011; $1.42M reported sold to 26 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, over about 11 years. Across those companies the filings report $12M sold in total.

Listed alongside ETA Equity Management, LLC (3 shared filings, management entity), Matthew Zucker (3 shared filings) and Robert Befidi, Jr. (1 shared filing).

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.

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Gordian (2 issuers, $12M reported sold, 2011–2022).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Gordian has 2 companies on file and $12M 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 (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 13 court cases matching the name, 3 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 16 records came back, including 6 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 4 public filings for Mark Sinatra and found 2 differences: No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; 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

2 differences found between the filings for Mark Sinatra (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Apr 10, 2020 – Nov 16, 2022

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ETA Equity Fund I, LLC (latest filing Nov 16, 2022)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Nov 16, 2022 (first sale Apr 10, 2020). It reports $10,529,354 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.

Note · Feb 9, 2011 – Feb 23, 2011

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — GORDIAN CAPITAL LLC (latest filing Feb 23, 2011)

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
