The short version

Ted Cohen is listed as a director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Feb 2009 and Nov 2010: GENAUDIO INC (Centennial, CO — other technology — 2009–2010; $3.68M reported sold to 101 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 James Devine (4 shared filings), Jerry Mahabub (4 shared filings), Mark Bobak (4 shared filings), Paul Powers (4 shared filings), Elliot Mazer (3 shared filings) and 2 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 2 court cases matching the name, 3 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below. Not yet searched: SEC enforcement releases.

What this means 5 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.

What was searched

Sources searched: CourtListener bulk data (RECAP dockets as of 2026-09-30; recall-first rule 10-24) — federal district + bankruptcy courts; live RECAP re-check pending. State courts: not yet searched. PACER: not searched. · Last checked Oct 24, 2026, 2:17 AM ET.

Court records show docket facts only; we never restate allegations as facts. Outcome wording comes from the docket feed; where it does not state a disposition we say so.

State courts: not yet searched. No state offers a lawful automated statewide source PartnerFacts can use today. Texas (re:SearchTX) terms prohibit storing results in a database open to third parties; New York (WebCivil) and Massachusetts (MassCourts) require a browser check that blocks scripted queries; California has no statewide index (58 county portals; Rule of Court 2.503 grants name-based access case by case); Florida, Utah and Illinois offer paid or partial access whose terms for automated use are unverified. Washington (dw.courts.wa.gov; bulk index reports under a JISC data-dissemination agreement), Delaware (CourtConnect; Court of Chancery not included) and Arizona (apps.azcourts.gov/publicaccess, which has an official channel to request high-volume access) are the candidates; PartnerFacts will request written permission before any automated search. Federal courts are searched through CourtListener / RECAP.

Not made for individual people — comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups

5. Money to insiders

0 of 2 offerings report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 2 report proceeds to related persons totalling $830,000. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

Offering (latest filing)	Sales commissions	Finder's fees	To insiders	Paid to sell it	Source

How this is counted

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.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
