The short version

William Lyons is listed as an executive officer and director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Nov 2008 and Jan 2014: VIRTUAL PIGGY, INC. (Palm Beach, FL — other technology — 2013–2014; $10.9M reported sold to 72 investors) and AXS ONE INC (Rutherford, NJ — other technology — 2008–2009; $1.1M reported sold to 8 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 6 years. Across those companies the filings report $12M sold in total.

Listed alongside Harold Copperman (4 shared filings), Joseph Dwyer (4 shared filings), Anthony H. Bloom (2 shared filings), Darr Aley (2 shared filings), ERNEST CIMADAMORE (2 shared filings) and 10 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 3 SEC releases, 22 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 25 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.

We compared 4 public filings for William Lyons and found 11 differences, 3 worth asking the sponsor about: Amount sold went down between filings; Investor count went down between filings; 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

11 differences found between the filings for William Lyons — 3 worth asking about (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Feb 13, 2002 – Sep 13, 2002

Bankruptcy case: First USA Bank, A Bank One Company v. Bacci — filed Feb 13, 2002

United States Bankruptcy Court, D. New Jersey docket "First USA Bank, A Bank One Company v. Bacci" filed Feb 13, 2002, closed Sep 13, 2002. Timothy P. Bacci (listed on the same filings) is listed as Defendant ("Bacci"). Our match estimate: 68%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Sources
Worth asking · Nov 6, 2008 – Jun 30, 2009

Amount sold went down between filings — AXS ONE INC

The Nov 6, 2008 filing says $1,100,000 sold; the Jun 30, 2009 Form D says $250,000 sold — $850,000 less.

What this means Amounts sold normally only go up as a raise continues. A drop can mean investors were refunded, a figure was corrected, or an earlier number was wrong. Ask the sponsor which it was.

Sources
Worth asking · Nov 6, 2008 – Jun 30, 2009

Investor count went down between filings — AXS ONE INC

The Nov 6, 2008 filing reports 8 investors; the Jun 30, 2009 Form D reports 4 investors.

What this means Investor counts normally only grow. A smaller number can mean investors left or were refunded, or a count was corrected. Ask the sponsor what happened.

Sources
Note · May 28, 2013 – Jun 5, 2013

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — VIRTUAL PIGGY, INC. (latest filing Jun 5, 2013)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jun 5, 2013 (first sale May 28, 2013). It reports $5,170,595 sold of $6,000,001 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.

Sources
Worth asking · Jan 31, 2014 – May 9, 2014

William Lyons is no longer listed on the May 9, 2014 amendment — VIRTUAL PIGGY, INC.

William Lyons appears on the Jan 31, 2014 Form D (director) but not on the May 9, 2014 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Sources
Note · Nov 6, 2008 – Jun 30, 2009

Offering amount lowered between filings — AXS ONE INC

The Nov 6, 2008 filing says $1,100,000 offered; the Jun 30, 2009 Form D says $250,000.

What this means The target raise got smaller. That can mean the plan shrank or the sponsor stopped early. Ask what changed in the deal.

Sources
Note · Nov 6, 2008 – Jun 30, 2009

William Lyons is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "William P Lyons" on the Nov 6, 2008 filing, and "William Lyons" on 3 filings (from Jun 30, 2009).

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

Sources
Note · Apr 17, 2018

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

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.

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).

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

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); KY (Kentucky Secretary of State — Business Entity Search (sosbes.sos.ky.gov), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 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. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). 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).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 2 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.

Other offering types (Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding)

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to William Lyons by design. Searched property records in Hillsborough County FL (Clerk recorded-document index Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026 + FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Miami-Dade County FL (FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Harris County TX (HCAD 2026 ownership roll), Dallas County TX (DCAD 2026 ownership roll), New York City ACRIS documents and PLUTO ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers, Cook County IL sale and ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers (814,874 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:59 PM ET) for the 2 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.
