What this filing shows
·Every sentence is a value as filed on SEC Form D
Founders Fund VII, LP is a Delaware limited partnership that filed a Form D with the SEC on November 20, 2019, 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. Founders Fund VII, LP reported $1,496,368,333 sold from 203 investors of a $1,496,368,333 total offering as of the Form D filed November 20, 2019. 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 no recipient of sales compensation, which usually means the issuer or its affiliates are placing the securities directly. The issuer's address of record is One Letterman Drive, Building D, 5th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94129.
