The short version

Peter W Farner is listed as an executive officer on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Jun 2009: TGap Venture Capital Fund II, L.P. (Kalamazoo, MI — pooled investment fund — 2009; $16M reported sold to 29 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Jun 2009. 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 Jack K Ahrens (1 shared filing).

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Peter. 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) — 12 court cases matching the name, 6 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 18 records came back, including 3 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 1 public filing for Peter W Farner and found 2 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 199 days after the first sale; 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 Peter W Farner — 1 worth asking about (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Nov 25, 2008 – Jun 12, 2009

Form D filed 199 days after the first sale — TGap Venture Capital Fund II, L.P.

The filing says the first sale was Nov 25, 2008. The Form D was filed Jun 12, 2009 — 199 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 184 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources

Form D · Jun 12, 2009 ↗ (Jun 12, 2009)
TGap Venture Capital Fund II, L.P. — PartnerFacts page ↗ (Jun 12, 2009)

Note · Nov 25, 2008 – Jun 12, 2009

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — TGap Venture Capital Fund II, L.P. (latest filing Jun 12, 2009)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jun 12, 2009 (first sale Nov 25, 2008). It reports $15,955,000 sold of $30,000,000 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.

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

Per-offering detail

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
