Here is a link to to some FAQ`s about Reg D = http://www.sec.gov/answers/regd.htm</A>
Do you have a specific question?
thank you for responding. Yes, how does this work when selling membership units and how should the percentage work? How long is this process? Is there an easier agreement when someone is interested in an equity buy in?
Thank you for the help.

1. Re: membership units. Membership units in an LLC are a security, so the offer and sale is subject to the SEC regulations - just like for a corporation. There is some difference in the preparation of documents but basically it works the same.
2. Percentage. Here again the basics are the same for an LLC as a Corporation. Ultimately the price per unit is tied to a "valuation" of the company.
3. How long is the process: Depending upon the stage of the company and assuming there is a reasonably complete business plan in existence - the documents can be completed in a couple of weeks.
4 Is there an easier agreement? I`m not sure exactly what you mean by easier. As a general answer - it depends, on several factors.
There are disclosure documents and transaction documents. Disclosure requirements are defined according to the specific exemption used. For example: Reg D-506 requires "full" disclosure - which is accomplished via a Private Placement Memorandum (PPM).
The transaction document (often a subscription agreement) should be designed to properly protect all parties by clearly conveying the terms of the transaction.
If you`d like to discuss your specific situation - send me a PM

I`ve seen you name many times in this forum. I`ve also noticed that your posting are quited informative and educational.
I have grown quite curious about you.
Are you in the business of making businesses better, or are just speaking from years of varied experience?
Thanks for the complement.
I guess the answer to your question is -both. I have "been around" and gathered a lot of experience in different situations. For these past few years, my business has been geared toward and focused on helping early stage businesses by enabling/facilitating their access to capital.
All the best

Actually, just reading your posts in various threads, like this one, has taught me a great deal.
You are certainly an asset to this forum.
I glad I joined.

My partner and I are now about 2 years into our business (6 months actually open) and we find ourselves in need of an unsecured line of credit to consolidate the debt we have built up.
How would you suggest we go about it?
THanks
