Offering Memorandum

New York

Asked on Nov 24, 2024

Can a company be exempt from filing SEC reports if it meets certain criteria?

I am currently researching the requirements for SEC reporting and I came across the concept of exemptions. I understand that certain companies, such as small businesses, may be exempt from filing SEC reports if they meet certain criteria. However, I am unsure about the specifics of these exemptions and the criteria that need to be met. I would like to know if a company can be exempt from filing SEC reports and what these criteria might be.

Danny J.

Answered Dec 14, 2024

So to answer your question, yes, certain companies can be exempt from filing SEC reports if they meet specific criteria. This area of securities law is nuanced and can significantly impact a company's regulatory obligations and costs. Let me outline some key points for you: 1. **Small Reporting Company (SRC) Status:** - Companies with public float less than $250 million or annual revenues less than $100 million may qualify for scaled disclosure requirements. 2. **Emerging Growth Company (EGC) Status:** - Available for companies with less than $1.07 billion in annual gross revenues. - Provides certain disclosure and regulatory relief for up to five years after IPO. 3. **Private Company Exemptions:** - Companies with fewer than 2,000 shareholders of record (or 500 non-accredited investors) may be exempt from registration. 4. **Foreign Private Issuer Exemptions:** - Non-U.S. companies may have different reporting requirements. 5. **Rule 12h-3 Suspension:** - Allows suspension of reporting under certain conditions, like having fewer than 300 shareholders of record. While these exemptions can provide relief from full SEC reporting requirements, determining eligibility and maintaining compliance can be complex. Factors such as company size, structure, shareholder composition, and future growth plans all play crucial roles in this determination. It's important to note that even if exempt from full reporting, companies may still have obligations under state securities laws or to their shareholders. Additionally, the benefits of exemption should be weighed against potential drawbacks, such as reduced access to capital markets or decreased investor confidence. Given the complexities and potential consequences of misapplying these exemptions, it would be prudent to conduct a thorough analysis of your specific situation. Would you like to discuss your company's particulars to determine which exemptions, if any, might apply and how to strategically approach your SEC reporting obligations?

Can an LLC buy stocks for a fee?

I'm forming an LLC in order to manage some money investing in the stock market, (Friends and family only) I will be charging a percentage fee on the profits. Can an LLC be formed to invest in stocks and charge a performance fee? Thank you.

Forest H.

Answered Aug 25, 2021

Generally, if you are "advising others regarding investment decisions for compensation" you are regulated by the SEC as an investment advisor and subject to oversight and registration with the SEC. There are exemptions, for example, a "Family Office" is not required to register. However, all investors and owners in a Family Office must be actual family and friends would be excluded.

Fundraising Contract

New York

Asked on May 25, 2025

Can I legally raise funds through cryptocurrency for my startup?

I am an entrepreneur looking to raise funds for my startup through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO), a form of cryptocurrency crowdfunding. However, I am unsure about the legal implications and regulations surrounding this method of fundraising. I want to ensure that I am in compliance with relevant laws and regulations to avoid any legal issues in the future.

John B.

Answered Jun 3, 2025

Raising funds through an ICO is legally possible —but only if you navigate securities laws, money‐transmission rules and (often) state “blue‐sky” requirements. Below is a roadmap to the U.S. legal framework you must consider; I’ve included statute citations and SEC guidance where relevant. 1. Determine Whether Your Token Is a “Security” Key Point: If your token meets the definition of an “investment contract” under U.S. law, it’s a security. Selling a security to U.S. investors without registration (or a valid exemption) violates the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Conduct a “Howey analysis” for your token. Retain counsel to document why—factually and legally—you believe it’s not a security (if that’s your position). But be prepared that the SEC will likely view it as a security offering. 2. If It’s a Security, Register or Find an Exemption Choose the exemption that best fits (e.g., 506(c) if you have only accredited investors and want to market openly). File Form D for Reg D, or engage an SEC-registered crowdfunding portal for Reg CF, or go through Form 1-A for Reg A+. Each has different reporting burdens and limitations. 3. State (“Blue‐Sky”) Securities Laws Even if you rely on a federal exemption like Reg D Rule 506, most states impose their own registration or notice filings. For each state where you permit a sale, either file the required Form U-2 (for 506 offerings) or register/claim exemption. Most startups rely on the uniform notice procedure under 506 to simplify compliance. 4. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) / Know-Your-Customer (KYC) Rules Even if you structure your ICO as a non-security (which is rare), you must still comply with anti-money-laundering laws if your token is considered a “virtual currency” under FinCEN’s rules. If you accept USD (or other fiat) in exchange for tokens, register as an MSB with FinCEN, build out an AML compliance program, obtain state money-transmitter licenses where required (e.g., New York BitLicense), and integrate a robust KYC/AML vendor at token sale. I have been heavily involved in this space since 2017 - feel free to reach out John@BenemeritoLaw.com

Stock Option Agreement

California

Asked on Jul 8, 2023

Stock option agreement and stock splits?

I am an employee of a company that is planning to offer stock options as part of my compensation package. I am trying to understand what would happen if my company does a stock split. Would my stock options be affected by the split, and if so, how? I want to make sure I understand the implications of a stock split before I accept the stock options as part of my compensation.

Thaddeus W.

Answered Aug 11, 2023

Good question! Typically, a stock split will result in an appropriate adjustment to an option award so that, after the adjustment, the option holder (you, in this case) is "made whole" -- that is, you are effectively in the same place economically (as far as this option is concerned) after the split with the option as you were before. If you look at your company's Stock Plan (the plan under which your options were authorized and granted to you), you will probably find a section called "Changes in Capitalization." (Or, you can search to document for the word "split" and may be able to find the governing provision that way.) The provision might be included in your Stock Option Agreement, but typically it is covered in the Plan. Anyway, the provision (wherever it is located in your documents) would normally say something along the lines of the following: "In the event of a stock split (and other events), the following will occur: (i) the numbers and class of shares covered by your option award, (ii) the exercise price per share of each outstanding option, and (iii) any applicable repurchase price per share issued under any option award, will be automatically proportionately adjusted in the event of a stock split (or other event)." (Usually the language is even more "legalesey" but that's pretty much the jist of it.) Of course, its impossible to say for sure in your situation (or in any other specific situation) without seeing the relevant documents and knowing all other relevant details, but that would be the typical approach.
