Reg. D 506(b) Advertising
The following is from the SEC's website re: 506(b):
“General solicitation” includes advertisements published in newspapers and magazines, public websites, communications broadcasted over television and radio, and seminars where attendees have been invited by general solicitation or general advertising. In addition, the use of an unrestricted, and therefore publicly available, website constitutes general solicitation. The solicitation must be an “offer” of securities, but solicitations that condition the market for an offering of securities may be considered to be offers.
I understand speaking with a securities attorney is the best idea but was wondering if anyone could shed light on what can and can not be on your website if you intend to use the 506(b) exemption?
