The short version

Paul Bennett is listed as an executive officer on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Nov 2025: AAA Storage Growth Fund II, LLC (Davidson, NC — pooled investment fund — 2025; $13.1M reported sold to 27 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Nov 2025. 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 AAA Storage Investments Manager II, LLC (1 shared filing, management entity), JMA Eagles Nest LLC (1 shared filing, management entity) and John Muhich (1 shared filing).

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Aaa Storage (4 issuers, $34.3M reported sold, 2013–2025).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Aaa Storage has 4 companies on file and $34.3M 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) — 1 bankruptcy case matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 1 record 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 1 public filing for Paul Bennett and found 5 differences: Same name, different state: "Paul Bennett" (FL) is a separate record; Same name, different state: "Paul Bennett" (C3) is a separate record; 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.

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.
