What this filing shows
·Every sentence is a value as filed on SEC Form D
ABS Capital Partners VIII, L.P. is a Delaware limited partnership organized in 2015 that first filed a Form D on July 23, 2015 and most recently amended it on July 25, 2016, describing itself as a venture capital fund. The offering claims Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1), Section 3(c)(7) and covers pooled investment fund interests. ABS Capital Partners VIII, L.P. reported $149,800,000 sold from 35 investors of a $400,000,000 total offering as of the Form D filed July 25, 2016. The filing states that the figure is combined across related vehicles, so it is not this entity's figure alone. The offering relies on Rule 506(b), which permits sales to accredited investors and to no more than 35 non-accredited investors who meet a sophistication standard, and prohibits general solicitation. The filing checks both Section 3(c)(1), which caps the fund at 100 beneficial owners, and Section 3(c)(7), which requires every investor to be a qualified purchaser, generally an individual with at least $5 million in investments. A fund normally relies on one or the other. The filing reports no non-accredited investors. The filing lists the minimum investment as $0, meaning no minimum was stated. The Form D names Shannon Advisors, LLC (CRD 150305), associated with None; Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (CRD 816), associated with None as recipients of sales compensation soliciting in AL, FL, GA, IL, NJ, NY, OH, TX. Sales commissions are reported as $0 and finders' fees as $0. Form D allows these to be estimates. The issuer's address of record is 400 East Pratt Street, Suite 910, Baltimore, MD 21202.
