What this means Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves. A pattern of late paperwork is worth asking the sponsor about.
No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Healthcare Navigation Solutions, LLC (latest filing Apr 23, 2024) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — BFILTER INC. (latest filing May 2, 2023) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — OnShift, Inc. (latest filing Jul 19, 2018) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — OnShift, Inc. (latest filing Jul 19, 2018)

The Jan 31, 2012 filing lists Mark Woodka as executive officer, director; the Jul 19, 2018 Form D lists director.
What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.
"Other Technology" (May 2, 2023); then "Investing" (Sep 10, 2026).
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.
"Other Health Care" (Jan 31, 2012); then "Other Technology" (Jul 19, 2018 to Jul 19, 2018).
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.

The people listed on the May 2, 2023 filing give Chicago, IL; on the Sep 10, 2026 filing they give Cleveland, OH.
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.
OH on 7 filings (Jan 31, 2012 to Sep 10, 2026); IL on 1 filing (May 2, 2023).
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: 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.

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

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).
None of the 4 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.
