Rule 504 : Offerings allow a business to raise a maximum of $1 million, less the total dollar amount of securities sold during the preceding 12 month period, under Rule 504, Rule 505 or Section 3 of the act. However, a business can raise only $500,000 by the sale of securities to persons residing in the states of Montana and Alaska, which have no disclosure laws applicable to the offering. For the states that do have disclosure laws, which are 48 out of the 50 states, a business can raise up to $1,000,000. Rule 504 has no prescribed disclosure requirements, no limit on the number of purchasers, and no investor sophistication standards.
Rule 504 is the most commonly used Regulation D exemption. Offerings that are exempt under Rule 504 are relatively simple to prepare, which reduces cost and delay and can generally be underwritten by the offering company (the securities being sold by the company's own officers, directors and employees).
