What is an SEC 
Model Accredited Investor Exemption ( MAIE )
common stock offering ?


An MAIE offering is a special SEC format for small business, adopted by many states, that within very rigorous parameters, permits the presentation of a Reg. D, Section 504, type offering on the Internet.

In most adopting states, paperwork must be filed regarding the offering.  The offering can only be made by its Offering Memorandum. The maximum funds that can be raised are $1 million dollars, less any funds already raised in the previous 12 months.

The key criteria is that the Offering Memorandum can only be viewed by individuals who meet the SEC definition of an "accredited investor".

The SEC has specified exactly what the "tombstone" can contain, what declarations must precede it, and what must be asked on the Accredited Investor Questionnaire.

The purpose of the Accredited Investor Questionnaire is so that the offering company will have enough information to be sure that it is not revealing an offering to an individual who is not an accredited investor.

The SEC says that an individual who meets the guidelines for being "accredited" can be given a UserID and a Password to access the secure server containing the Offering Memorandum and the Subscription Agreement, for their evaluation.

The above is exactly the process that we adhere to on the following web pages.
