Guidance on Close Personal Friend and Close Business Associate Determination
A "close personal friend" of a director, executive officer, founder or control person of an issuer is an individual who knows the director, executive officer, founder or control person well enough and has known them for a sufficient period of time to be in a position to assess their capabilities and trustworthiness and to obtain information from them with respect to the investment.
The following factors are relevant to this determination:
(a) the length of time the individual has known the director, executive officer, founder or control person,
- (b) the nature of the relationship between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person including such matters as the frequency of contacts between them and the level of trust and reliance in the other circumstances, and
- (c) the number of "close personal friends" of the director, executive officer, founder or control person to whom securities have been distributed in reliance on the private issuer exemption or the family, friends and business associates exemption.
An individual is not a close personal friend solely because the individual is:
- (a) a relative,
- (b) a member of the same club, organization, association or religious group,
- (c) a co-worker, colleague or associate at the same workplace,
- (d) a client, customer, former client or former customer,
- (e) a mere acquaintance, or
- (f) connected through some form of social media, such as Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn.
The relationship between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person must be direct. For example, the exemption is not available to a close personal friend of a close personal friend of a director of the Company. Further, a relationship that is primarily founded on participation in an internet forum is not considered to be that of a close personal friend.
A "close business associate" is an individual who has had sufficient prior business dealings with a director, executive officer, founder or control person of the Company to be in a position to assess their capabilities and trustworthiness and to obtain information from them with respect to the investment.
The following factors are relevant to this determination:
- (a) the length of time the individual has known the director, executive officer, founder or control person,
- (b) the nature of any specific business relationships between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person, including, for each relationship, when it began, the frequency of contact between them and when it terminated if it is not ongoing, and the level of trust and reliance in the other circumstances,
- (c) the nature and number of any business dealings between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person, the length of the period during which they occurred, and the nature and date of the most recent business dealing, and
- (d) the number of "close business associates" of the director, executive officer, founder or control person to whom securities have been distributed in reliance on the private issuer exemption or the family, friends and business associates exemption.
An individual is not a close business associate solely because the individual is:
-
(a) a member of the same club, organization, association or religious group,
-
(b) a co-worker, colleague or associate at the same workplace,
-
(c) a client, customer, former client or former customer,
-
(d) a mere acquaintance, or
-
(e) connected through some form of social media, such as Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn.
The relationship between the individual and the director, executive officer, founder or control person must be direct. For example, the exemptions are not available for a close business associate of a close business associate of a director of the Company. Further, a relationship that is primarily founded on participation in an internet forum is not considered to be that of a close business associate.
