What this filing shows
·Every sentence is a value as filed on SEC Form D
Top Tier Venture Capital VIII, L.P. is a Delaware limited partnership organized in 2017 that first filed a Form D on April 21, 2017 and most recently amended it on October 12, 2018, describing itself as a other investment fund. The offering claims Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(7) and covers pooled investment fund interests. Top Tier Venture Capital VIII, L.P. reported $379,494,950 sold from 15 investors of a $379,494,950 total offering as of the Form D filed October 12, 2018. 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. Because the fund also relies on Section 3(c)(7), each investor must be a qualified purchaser, generally an individual with at least $5 million in investments. The filing reports no non-accredited investors. The filing lists the minimum investment as $0, meaning no minimum was stated. The Form D names TopCap Partners, Inc. (CRD 166881), associated with None; Five 9 Securities, LLC (CRD 114853), associated with None as recipients of sales compensation soliciting in CA, CT, DC, FL, GA, IL, MA, NJ, NY, OR, PA, TX. Sales commissions are reported as $0 and finders' fees as $145,000. Form D allows these to be estimates. The issuer's address of record is C/O Top Tier Capital Partners, 600 Montgomery Street, Suite 480, San Francisco, CA 94111.
