b'11. Prepare Your Offering Package & Raise Moneyprovisions you have included in your offering packageboth while rais-ing money and while operating your company. If you dont know whats in the documents because you failed to read them, you wont be able to do this, which is a primary source of litigation involving securities offerings.For the period of time you have your offering open to investors, you have certain obligations to your investors that you, as the issuer of the securi-ties, are solely responsible to maintain. Your attorney can assist with this, but you must enlist them to do so.KEEP INVESTORS INFORMED OF MATERIAL FACTSYou must promptly inform all prospective investors and your attorney of any change in material facts concerning the offering, any property or company that is the subject of the offering, or any changes in the issuer or persons associated with the issuer or manager of the company. You must relay information to your attorney regarding any proposed or required amendments or modifications to the offering materials. You shouldnt make amendments or alterations to the offering materials on your own; get help from your attorney. A change made in one place could have effects on other parts of your documents. Inconsistencies are both a source of confusion for investors and a source of possible claims of fraud or misrepresentation later on. Any substantive changes or amendments to your offering materials after accepting money from investors could re-quire you to offer a complete refund of investors money. If the deal isnt the same thing they bargained for, you have to give them an opportunity to opt out.You must not make, or allow to anyone else on your team to make, any promises, representations, or side deals with prospective investors that are not included within the offering materials, a written amendment, or a supplement. Any side deals you make with investors must not affect any other investor. Consider this example: If you want to share management earnings with one investor, that may be OK,, but you cannot offer them a better deal than to any other investor directly from your company, unless its allowed in the company agreement to which all of your investors have subscribed.133'
