Who
is PPMPro?

our position as the premiere PPM provider

What is
a Private Placement Memorandum (Reg
D Offering)?
A private
placement memorandum (PPM) is the
document that discloses everything
the investor needs to know to make
an informed investment decision. This
includes: the offering structure,
the share structure of the company,
SEC disclosures about the shares being
purchased, company information, information
on company operations, risks involved
with the investment, management information,
use of proceeds, information on certain
transactions that could affect the
investor, and investor suitability
data. The PPM also includes the subscription
agreement which is the actual "sales
contract" for the shares of stock.
This is the document that the investor
will sign and send in with their investment
funds.
Why do
I need a PPM?
A PPM
is crucial for the acquisition of
capital. It shows you are a credible
organization following the rules and
regulations required to make an equity
investment in your firm. The PPM discloses
key points to the potential investor
in order for them to make an informed
investment decision. Every firm which
is attempting to raise an equity investment
is required to have a PPM to assist
the investor in their due diligence
process.
Why can't
I write my own PPM?
You can,
however very few entrepreneurs do.
The SEC estimates that it takes an
experienced professional 148 hours
(SEC form SB-2) to cover all of the
points required in an offering prospectus
and most business owners prefer to
expend their time and energy in the
formation and operation of their own
business enterprise rather than to
learn an entirely new skill set. The
SEC also estimates it takes 16 hours
to complete and submit Form D. That
is almost an entire month of your
valuable time which could be spent
on building your business.
What do
most securities attorney's charge
to prepare a PPM?
They
typically start at approximately $10,000-$15,000
with changes and consultations at
$325/hr.
Are your
PPMs developed for my specific purpose?
Yes.
As no two businesses are alike, each
PPM is designed specifically for your
application. While we are required
to follow a standard SEC format your
PPM will be one-of-a-kind developed
just for your firm.
Can
I buy-back the stock at a predetermined
return on the investment?
Yes.
This option is available in the PPM
if you select same.
Can I sell my securities myself?
Yes.
The officers and directors of the
company can sell the securities however
cannot receive a commission. Only
a licensed securities dealer/broker
can receive a commission on security
sales.
Do I have
to file anything with the SEC?
Yes.
We can complete your SEC Form D for
your signature and submittal to the
SEC. Form D is an "information
only" filing - not a filing that
is subject to approvals or reviews.
There are no SEC filing fees for this
registration. This is included with
your order.
If I use a dealer/broker what do they
charge?
Most
licensed dealer/brokers charge a 10-12%
commission on all the securities they
place. For a listing of dealer/brokers
go to www.sec.gov.
