  • 1.  compliance upon converting convertible notes

    Posted 05-17-2023 09:03

    Hello everyone, 
    Our company (startup c-corp) recently converted the convertible notes into common shares of the company. Is there any form that we should file with SEC? 
    Thank you,

    Hi Vahid!  Since Carta serves as your SEC-registered Transfer Agent (I've linked here a support article on what being an SEC-registered transfer agent entails), we cannot legally advise as to whether your company should or shouldn't file an SEC form.If you have additional outside legal counsel, we typically recommend you confer with them on best next steps. Thank you!

    Hi Crystal, 

    Thank you for your reply! I thought that this community was a platform for sharing these kinds of questions. If not, that's alright! Regarding SEC compliance, we have already submitted Form D and are fulfilling the SEC requirements.


    Best,

    I'm glad to hear your team identified best next steps for SEC requirements. As your Customer Success Manager, Crystal was just ensuring she gave you context on what advice Carta is legally allowed to share about this topic.
