Re: SEC Forms
That is correct, the Consultant will need to file a 13D, and the issuance of shares will need to be registered, or issued pursuant to an exemption to the registration requirements. If the shares are not issued pursuant to a registrations, you may not be able to freely transfer or sell these share. With respect to this, you will want to consider asking for registration rights, and to be sure that the shares will not be subject to any other transfer restrictions, other than applicable securities laws.
