How Kyleen Cane used a creditor / promissory-note position to acquire and hold majority control of public shells — without ever filing the beneficial-ownership disclosure the securities laws require.
This page reconstructs, from the SEC EDGAR full-text record, how Cane maintained undisclosed majority-control positions while circumventing the disclosure the securities laws require. The corpus is 44,424 filings across 661 associated entities. Within it, 116 filings that name Jan Wallace were prepared by Cane's own filing agents — the edgarizer fingerprint tying counsel to operator across a decade (1999–2009). Eleven of the controlled shells carry a Cane / Cane-Clark promissory-note or secured-creditor position (~$3.55M face), and in each the note is the instrument by which a creditor became an undisclosed controlling owner — never reported on the Schedule 13D or §16 forms that would have revealed it. Allegations, not adjudicated findings; Cane was acquitted at trial in 2018.
Every note in the ledger is engineered to do one thing — convert a creditor position into an undisclosed controlling equity position. A lender or counsel takes a secured, convertible note over the whole company, then converts it into a majority block of free-trading stock through a bankruptcy-plan conversion (MW Medical: $375K of the note → 74.1%), a fee-for-stock swap (Sedona: legal fees forgiven → 74% of the vote), or an offshore-nominee split (Davi Skin: a $200K note → 2,295,388 shares parceled to LOM Bermuda nominees at 3.97% each). The common design is concealment of control: the beneficial-ownership disclosure that would reveal it — Schedule 13D under §13(d), the §16 insider reports — is evaded by keeping each nominee under the 5% threshold, or by burying the conversion inside a reorganization. The creditor position is not incidental to the fraud; it is the instrument of the concealment.
In SEC EDGAR the accession-number prefix is the filing agent's CIK, so every filing Cane's own firms prepared carries her signature. 116 filings that name Jan Wallace were filed under Cane O'Neill Taylor (CIK 0001075793) or Cane Clark LLP (CIK 0001255294), across four entities over a decade — the structural connection between counsel and operator, corroborated by both principals' depositions. (This is separate from, and additional to, the bankruptcy-court coordination between them.) Click a count to list the accessions.
Each swimlane is a person; each bar is an entity involvement across time, colored by the role mechanism, not the person. Only the two edgarizer-verified cells appear — Cane (as agent, counsel and creditor) and Wallace (primary operator) — together with the nominees who signed inside their Cane-filed shells (Sim, Johal, Lakha, D. Clark, B. Clark). The union-find pass over the broader EDGAR data also returns hunter, doney and moll-anderson clusters, but none survives the edgarizer test — their entities show zero filings prepared by Cane's agent CIKs (Resonate Blends 411/0, Royal Mines 156/0, Bloomios 125/0…), so they are excluded.
