ITEM 1. SUMMARY INFORMATION, RISK FACTORS, RISK MITIGATION FACTORS, DILUTION
AND MATERIAL DISPARITIES
A. Summary Information:
This Regulation A opportunity is for what is called the 'interconnector'
sector of the broadband infrastructure industry. This sector provides the
system whereby broadband Internet access service (BIAS) providers, as
currently defined by the FCC's new Open Internet rules, sell their retail
services to customers. These are companies like Netflix, Hulu, Crackle,
YouTube, Apple TV, as well as the traditional content providers, like
Comcast and Time Warner Cable.
This project is limited to unserved and underserved rural areas of the
United States, and provides such 'interconnector' infrastructure for
homes, businesses, and rural cities.
B. Risk Factors:
1. Statements of future forecasts, projections and expectations are
not statements of returns on investment;
2. Market penetration may not be immediate;
3. Zoning issues may delay the start of parts of the project;
4. Attracting broadband providers to a carrier-neutral environment
could result in initial limited user expansion;
l
5. Local government needs could accelerate adoption, at a short term
financial loss;
6. The Company has no operating history;
7. Sales of shares will be restricted in accordance with
Regulation A, as amended, effective June 19, 2015;
8. Technology choice: the primary technology choice for this project
is white space infrastructure technology. This technology was
authorized by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), in
2012, and thus, there is limited data on a national rollout of this
technology at the present time. This project would be among the first
for a consumer-ready rollout of the technology infrastructure;
9. There is an absence of profitable operations in recent periods;
10. There is no current, defined method for determining market price
for the service, as the service has, as of yet, not had a commercial
rollout;
2
11. the project has not yet been completed and, accordingly; has no
operating history. The company, therefore, has no operating history
of earnings and its operations will be subject to all of the risks
inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise.
Accordingly the success of the business is completely dependent upon
financial, business, competitive, regulatory and other general
factors affecting the rural broadband interconnector sector in
general as well as prevailing economic conditions;(8)
12. although, under Regulation A securities are unrestricted, there
is, for this offering, no opportunity to achieve control securities;(9)
C. Risk Mitigation Factors:
l. 3-day right of withdrawal;(10)
2. required pre-purchase in-person meeting in Washington, D.C. with
Issuer's representative, and, upon signing confidentiality statement,
additional proprietary project information provided;(11)
3.right of rescission maintained under new JOBS Act rules;(12)
Footnotes:
(8) See, In Re Donald J. Trump Casino Securities Litigation - Taj Mahal
Litigation, 7 F.3d 357 (3rd Cir. 1993)
(9) See, Section 3 (b) (2) (C ), SEC Rules, JOBS Act and Rule 405, SEC Rules
(10)See,Section 4A (a) (1) G) SEC Rules, JOBS Act
(11) All contracts to be concluded only in person with Issuer's representative
in Washington, D.C. No sales or solicitations, except consistent with JOBS
Act, conducted by any electronic means, or by the U.S. mail, or any other
delivery service.
(12) See, Section 4A (c) SEC Rules, JOBS Act
3
4. stock class: not restricted; (13)
5. distribution: shares to land in the hands of the investor as of
this offering.(14)
D. Dilution:
The dilution formula that is utilized is taken from the administrative
code of the State of Florida. After a survey of various dilution
calculations from industry, as well as research among different State
Blue Sky laws, we found that Florida's formula, as specifically codified,
offers the best transparency by which to calculate dilution.
E . Material disparities:
There is no material disparity between the public offering price and the
effective cash cost to officers, directors, promoters and affiliated
persons as of the time of this offering circular, and there has been none
in the past three years.
Further, the Issuer's representative, and its officers and directors,
which includes the Issuer's representative, do not anticipate any such
material disparity, or discount.
Footnotes:
(13) See, footnote 5
(14) Thus, no secondary sellers, including underwriters or brokers or dealers,
and therefore, no additional fees for this first offering. Subject to change
upon amendment of this offering circular upon any new distribution plan,
consistent with Regulation A rules governing this offering circular.
4
With respect to promoters and affiliated persons, because this Regulation A
offering is based upon new rules, made effective on June 19, 2015, the
Issuer's representative was unable to locate any such persons as of the
effective offering date of this offering circular, which is also
June 19, 2015. This being said, in the event such persons do begin to
hold themselves out as promoters or affiliates, and are so qualified,
the Issuer intends to utilize the services of such promoters and
affiliates and will amend this Offering Circular, as required by the
Regulation A rules, as amended, in a timely manner, or with withdraw
same and file a new one, consistent with said rules.
ITEM 2. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION - ALL SALES TO LAND IN THE HANDS OF THE INVESTOR
A . Underwriters:
For this initial filing, there is only a primary distribution, with all
shares to land in the hands of the investor directly from the Issuer.
There are no underwriters on this offering as of the potential date of
first public sale, June 19, 2015. In the event, however, that
underwriters do begin to take business under this new, amended
Regulation A offering opportunity, the Issuer intends to seek out and
retain such for this offering.
In that event, and at that time, the Issuer intends to utilize the
services of such underwriters and will amend this Offering Circular(15),
as required by the Regulation A rules, as amended, in a timely manner,
consistent with said rules.
Footnotes:
(15) Or, if required to, withdraw this one and re-file it with a secondary
plan of distribution.
5
B . Discounts and commissions:
There are no agreements for discounts and commissions as of the potential
date of the first public sale, June 19, 2015, because there have been no
promoters, underwriters or affiliates yet retained.
In the event, however, that such persons are retained under this new,
amended Regulation A offering opportunity, the Issuer intends to allow
for such discounts and to pay to such persons such amounts as may be
reasonable and allowed by the new rules for Regulation A, as well as by
any such voluntary or required groups, organizations or agencies that
may provide for regulation and licensing of said persons.
In that event, and at that time, the Issuer will amend this Offering
Circular, as required by the Regulation A rules, as amended, in a
timely manner, or withdraw this one and file a new one, consistent with
said rules.(16)
C. Plan of distribution:
As of the date of the filing of this first Regulation A offering circular
for this project, such is limited to primary distribution only, with all
shares landing in the hands of the investor directly from the Issuer and
the Issuer's representative.
As of the potential first offering sale date, and only upon successful
upload to the SEC for registration, and if those two are not the same,
upon the completion of the latter, there will be no secondary offering
agreements, contracts, or any other relations with any persons or
companies for other than primary sales.
Footnotes:
(16) Or, if required to, withdraw this one and re-file it with a secondary
plan of distribution.
6
D. No shares offered or sold on account of securities holders:
Consistent with Item 2. C, above, all shares will be sold upon issuance
only from the Issuer and to land in the hands of the investor.
E. No restrictions on amount of funds raised up to Regulation A limit, and
therefore, no return of funds issue, no underwriters:
1. no restrictions: all sales are primary in nature, and will land in
the hands of the investor directly from the Issuer.
There are no arrangements with any persons, by the Issuer, or the
Issuer's representative for any return of funds(17), other than those
as stated herein with respect to the 3-day right of withdrawal,(18)
and except as to the Tier 1 funding cap of $20 million.(19)
The existence of the Tier 1 funding cap, however, is not a
restriction as to the return of any funds for this offering,(20) as
any funds raised,(21) up to and including the funding cap limit, will
be used for project implementation;
Footnotes:
(17) See, Rules 10b-9 [17 CFR 240.10b-9] and 15c2-4 [17 CFR 240.15c2-4] under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as made applicable by Form 1-A.
(18) See, footnote 8
(19)See, Section II. A. Final Rules, Regulation A, as amended:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxfFvX3PZFjzY3M0YjBSRGFRREk/view?usp=sharing
(20) See, Section III. 3. a., Id.
(21) But see, Section III. 4. for any potential funding restrictions by any
individual investors. Id.
7
2. No underwriters: as there are no underwriters, there will be no
delay in payments.
ITEM 3. USE OF PROCEEDS TO ISSUER
A. Intended use of net proceeds:
All proceeds will be utilized to effectuate the
implementation/install/operational activation of large scale rural
broadband inter-connector infrastructure, utilizing, primarily, white
space technology, with co-location for backhaul, as well as the
integration of streaming video capability.
B. Statement as to use of actual proceeds:
All proceeds will be utilized to effectuate the
implementation/install/operational activation of large scale rural
broadband inter-connector infrastructure, utilizing, primarily, white
space technology, with co-location for backhaul, as well as the
integration of streaming video capability.
All funds will be sufficient, consistent with budget scaling of the
amount of investments, so as to accomplish project goals. For example,
if X amount of funding is achieved, then Y amount, or sections, of a
given project area can be fully built out and made operational.
C. No other funds to be used:
As of the effective date for new Regulation A, June 19, 2015, a JOBS Act
sales contract under the Company's Form Reg. D notice filing was in
effect, but funds had not yet been received. There are no other funds
that would be used in conjunction with any proceeds.(22)
Footnotes:
(22) Where possible, however, proceeds may be used as collateral for project
components, like hardware purchases, and also as security for project lines
of credit for such hardware. Among the company goals is the establishment of
a good business credit rating, and as such, such funds can, and will,
contribute to the achievement of that goal.
8
D. No proceeds to be used to discharge indebtedness:
The project carries no debt, and therefore, no proceeds would be used to
discharge any indebtedness.
E. No proceeds to be used to acquire non-project assets:
With the exception of assets acquired in the ordinary course of business
for the project, there will be no other use of the proceeds.
F. Reservation of right to change use of proceeds:
The issuer reserves the right to change the use of proceeds provided that
such reservation is due to certain contingencies which are adequately
disclosed.
For example, the project may require the purchase of small and
insignificant tracts of real estate for the purposes of positioning
hardware, or structures upon which to mount such hardware. Or, for
co-location purposes, the project may require the long-term leasing of
space on certain rooftops, again for the purposes of providing relay
connector hardware to the project area.
In all instances, however, the project plan is to avoid either the
purchase of any real estate or the necessity of establishing such rooftop
links. In other words, one of the primary project goals is to have access
to broadband Internet service utility connections that are a part of the
location of the sending radios, or in very close proximity to such. In
this manner, significant costs of such real estate and other co-location
items may be avoided, and thus, budget kept more efficient.
9
G. Compliance with 17 CFR 230.251(23), as amended:
The Issuing company/applicant has no plans and no business plan, or
intentions to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified
company, companies, entity or person.
ITEM 4 . DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
A. Business done and intended to be done:
The project has consisted of the origination, organization, design and
development of a large-scale rural interconnector infrastructure that
will bring Internet service to unserved areas of rural America.
Such business has been conducted over a period in excess of five years.
The business to be done consists of utilizing the proceeds to implement,
fulfill, and make operational, such infrastructure in a defined project
area.
B. The principal products produced and services rendered and the principal
market for and method of distribution of such products and services:
The principal 'product' produced consists of a consumer-ready 'kit' that
brings full Internet service to the unserved areas of rural America. The
Federal Communications Commission (FCC), for example, has identified
84,000 unserved census blocks in rural America.(24)
Footnotes:
(23) As amended, effective June 19, 2015.
(24) See, www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/rural-broadband-experiments
10
The 'kit' concept was originated by the parent company(25) in order to
create a defined, consumer-ready project plan that can be scaled from a
small, to a massive project size, depending on funding.
The principal 'service' that would be provided consists of the permanent
operation of the 'kit' over the entire rural American landscape.(26)
C. The status of a product or service, if the issuer has made public
information about a new product or service which would require the
investment of a material amount of the assets of the issuer or is
otherwise material:
The issuer has made 'public' the 'product' by making JOBS Act, Rule
506 notifications on the Internet. The principal 'service' is
identified on the main project website, at www.urbroadband.com.
Thus, there are no investment proceeds which would require such new
information, and saving, therefore, the proceeds for use in project
implementation.
D. The estimated amount spent during each of the last two fiscal years
on company-sponsored research and development activities determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles:
The company has spent all of its time during the past six fiscal years
on research and development activities.
Footnotes:
(25) Rural Broadband Company, Inc.
(26) A useful analogy is with the earlier implementation of rural
electrification in the United States.
11
E. The estimated dollar amount spent during each of such years on
material customer-sponsored research activities relating to the
development of new products, services or techniques or the improvement
of existing products, services or techniques:
For largely proprietary reasons, the company has avoided such spending,
and will continue to avoid such, for those same reasons. Further, both
the FCC and th United States Department of Agriculture, among other
Federal and State agencies, have extensive public information available
on this issue.
F. The number of persons employed by the issuer:
For purposes of cost control, the Issuer maintains no staff of employees.
All persons who are employed on the project are consultants and others
with specialized knowledge, who work for themselves, or for outside
companies.
Further, the project anticipates little employment because most of the
work to be performed, in terms of install and the like, must be done
by the original equipment manufacturers (OEM), or by contractors
employed by them for that purpose.
This being said, a staff of customer support personnel, to relay messages
for customer issues, will be retained upon funding.
Further, a staff of computer-related personnel, for the purposes of
media, social media, community outreach and the like will be maintained
for the project.
12
G. The material effects that compliance with Federal, State and local
provisions which have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge
of materials into the environment, may have upon the capital
expenditures, earnings and competitive position of the issuer and its
subsidiaries:
None.
H. Distinctive or special characteristics of the issuer's operation or
industry which may have a material impact upon the issuer's future
financial performance:
1. dependence on one or a few major customers or suppliers
(including suppliers of raw materials or financing):
none;
2. existence of probable governmental regulation:
the interconnector sector for broadband is not a part of the FCC's
recent Open Internet rules. This said, to the extent that
broadband Internet access service (BIAS) provider retailers will
sell their services on our system, those providers will be
regulated by the FCC;
3. material terms of and/or expiration of material labor contracts
or patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions or
royalty agreements:
none;
13
4. unusual competitive conditions in the industry, cyclicality of the
industry and anticipated raw material or energy shortages to the
extent management may not be able to secure a continuing source
of supply:
none.
I. The issuer's plan of operation for the twelve months following the
commencement of the proposed offering:
Proceeds will be utilized, immediately, to achieve full implementation
of the projects. All planning is in place, and there is, thus, nothing
else to do other than proceed to installation and activation;
J. Proceeds from the offering to project cash requirements and whether,
in the next six months, it will be necessary to raise additional funds:
Proceeds will be utilized in strict accordance with budget calculations
and for install and activation.
Accordingly, as the budget may be measured by the amount of any proceeds
at any one given time, and then the project sector may be scaled
accordingly, there would be no need to raise additional funds for that
sector.
For example, if the project raises an initial $600,000.00, then that
amount would go towards the installation of one of the big sending
radios, and 80 receiving radios in homes or offices. The only reason
that the full 80 may not be installed at the outset would be the result
of needing a higher capacity hardware install at the peering point. As
these costs are generally known, and may be calculated, in fact, whether
such additional capacity will be needed at any given sector would not be
known until the install begins.
14
For example, a base station location that otherwise qualifies for the
sending radio, on that has height and electricity and is not in an
FCC-prohibited flight path, among other factors, may not have an
Internet connection, or may have one, but the hardware is not sufficient
to be able to handle the bandwidth that is needed. In this scenario, we
would look for such a co-location, which would be nearby, and would make
contract arrangements to put a sending radio onto that co-location area,
to send the signal to the base station, where the 80-account radio will
be mounted.
All such calculations and variations of this theme have long been worked
out, and are overcome at a price/budget point that would allow for the
80 customer accounts to be placed on the big radio.
In terms of scaling, thus, if $6,000,000.00 were achieved, for example,
the number of pieces of hardware would simply be multiplied to
accommodate that funding award, and so forth.
K. Any engineering, management or similar reports which have been
prepared or provided for external use by the issuer or by a principal
underwriter:
None.
L. Segment Data:
None required.
15
ITEM 5. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The location and general character of the principal plants, and other
materially important physical properties of the issuer and its
subsidiaries. If any such property is not held in fee or is held subject
to any major encumbrance, so state and briefly describe how held:
To the greatest extent possible, the Issuer seeks to avoid owning any
property in fee simple. Such expenses, often promoted by vendors of such
components as cell. towers, have resulted, historically, in both
unnecessary and unsustainable, and therefore, unprofitable results.
By contrast, the projects specifically seek a 'light footprint,'
wherever possible, to utilize existing assets of others, in order to
create the 'kit' system that is the successful business plan.
Put another way, the era of 'cable is coming to my farm any time now,'
has largely ended. Further, the era of cell. towers for rural areas, has
also largely ended. Those two self-limiting sectors never adjusted their
business models to suit the needs of rural America, and have,
accordingly, and for good and sound business reasons limited to their
narrow function, abandoned the rural sector.
This being said, the projects absolutely will rely on both fiber and cell
towers as crucial location, or co-location peering points and thus, among
the best starting points for any project is the location where the last
fiber strand ends, or where the last cell. tower stands.
In this regard, the projects will make every effort to avoid the
ownership of property, because, those sectors already own their own
assets. Where the base stations are needed, long term rental contracts
with building owners, or silo owners, or others, will be made.

persons had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest, naming
such person and stating his relationship to the issuer, the nature of
his interest in the transaction and, where practicable, the amount of
such interest:
A. Any director or officer of the issuer:
with the exception of ownership of shares, and serving as officers
and directors, none;
B. Any nominee for election as a director:
none;
C. Any principal securityholder named in answer to Item 8 A., above:
none;
D. If the issuer was incorporated or organized within the past three

is a director or officer of any parent or subsidiary of the issuer:
none;
F. Material transactions involving bank depositary of funds, transfer
agent, registrar, trustee under a trust indenture, or similar
services:
Material transactions involving banks include security steps taken by
the company with respect to co-signors on the accounts, as well as
such steps taken to comply with rights of succession upon the death,
disability or illness of one of the signers of the accounts. To this
end, the company originated its 'Office of Financial Management,'
with the sole purpose of appointing a trusted board member, and
person of personal wealth, Marc J. Hagemeier, M.A., as having login,
signing, and disbursement authority for the accounts upon such
contingency as to any signers.
Further, the board passed a resolution as to such transactions, to
be implemented by November, 2015, that requires the board to replace
the president and the office of the president as a signer on any
accounts. This measure was also taken for security purposes, in
order to avoid the president being placed in any coercive
situations with respect to said accounts.
Thus, the only 'transfer agent' would be Mr. Hagemeier.
With the exception of the Issuer's representative, Mr. Ramos, there
is no 'registrar' for any such material transactions.
27
There is no trustee under a trust indenture, or any other material
transactions.
There are no further 'similar services.'

ownership of securities of the issuer and the specified person
receives no extra or special benefit not shared on a pro-rata basis
by all of the holders of securities of the class:
none other than as to ownership of the shares and voting rights equal
to all shareholders;
I. Material indirect relationships:
1. from such person's position as a director of another corporation
or organization (other than a partnership) which is a party to the
transaction:
none;
2. from the direct or indirect ownership by such person and all other
persons specified in subparagraphs (1) through (5) above, in the
aggregate, of less than a 10 percent equity interest in another
person (other than a partnership) which is a party to the
transaction:
none;
28
3. where the interest of such person arises solely from the holding of
an equity interest (including a limited partnership interest but
excluding a general partnership interest) or a creditor interest in
another person which is a party to the transaction with the issuer or
any of its subsidiaries and the transaction is not material to such
other person:
none;
4. material underwriting discounts and commissions upon the sale of
securities by the issuer where any of the specified persons was or is
to be a principal underwriter or is a controlling person, or member,
of a firm which was or is to be a principal underwriter:
none, however, as amended Regulation A is a new industry, the Issuer
has yet been able to locate any such persons or companies who are
taking such business.
This said, the Issuer fully intends to engage such persons, once
they begin to enter into this sector, and will, therefore, amend
this subsection accordingly, or, if required by the rules, withdraw
this Regulation A filing and file a new one;
5. as to any transaction involving the purchase or sale of assets by
or to any issuer or any subsidiary, otherwise than in the ordinary
course of business, state the cost of the assets to the purchaser and,
if acquired by the seller within two years prior to the transaction,

none;
29
6. material transactions which involve remuneration from the issuer or
its subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to any of the specified
persons for services in any capacity unless the interest of such
persons arises solely from the ownership individually and in the
aggregate of less than 10 percent of any class of equity securities
of another corporation furnishing the services to the issuer or its
subsidiaries:
none.
