None of the Company’s securities are registered for resale with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The outstanding shares of common stock may only be resold through registration under the Securities Act of 1933, or under an applicable exemption from registration.


From inception May 4, 2010, Accelerated Acquisitions XII, Inc., was organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. Our principal business objectives were to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company has not restricted our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

On May 4, 2010, the Registrant sold 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Accelerated Venture Partners, LLC for an aggregate investment of $2,000. The Registrant sold these shares of Common Stock under the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

On July 16, 2011, SSM Media Ventures, Inc. (“Purchaser”) agreed to acquire 22,350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock par value $0.0001 for a price of $0.0001 per share. At the same time, Accelerated Venture Partners, LLC agreed to tender 3,500,000 of their 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock par value $0.0001 for cancellation. Following these transactions, SSM Media Ventures owned approximately 94% of the Company’s 23,850,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock par value $0.0001 and the interest of Accelerated Venture Partners, LLC was reduced to approximately 6% of the total issued and outstanding shares. Simultaneously with the share purchase, Timothy Neher resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors and Atonn Muhammad was simultaneously appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors. Such action represents a change of control of the Company.

The Purchaser used its working capital to acquire the Shares. The Purchaser did not borrow any funds to acquire the Shares. Prior to the purchase of the shares, the Purchaser was not affiliated with the Company. However, the Purchaser will be deemed an affiliate of the Company after the share purchase as a result of their stock ownership interest in the Company. The purchase of the shares by the Purchaser was completed pursuant to written Subscription Agreements with the Company. The purchase was not subject to any other terms and conditions other than the sale of the shares in exchange for the cash payment. The Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware in order to change its name to “Real Hip-Hop Network, Inc.”

On July 18, 2011, the Company entered into a Consulting Services Agreement with Accelerated Venture Partners LLC (“AVP”), a company controlled by Timothy J. Neher. The agreement requires AVP to provide the Company with certain advisory services that include reviewing the Company’s business plan, identifying and introducing prospective financial and business partners, and providing general business advice regarding the Company’s operations and business strategy in consideration of (a) an option granted by the Company to AVP to purchase 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.0001 per share (the “AVP Option”) (which was immediately exercised by the holder) subject to a repurchase option granted to the Company to repurchase the shares at a price of $0.0001 per share in the event the Company fails to complete funding as detailed in the agreement subject to the following milestones:

 
 
 
3

 
 
 

Milestone 1 -
Company’s right of repurchase will lapse with respect to 60% of the shares upon securing $10 million in available cash from funding;
Milestone 2 -
Company’s right of repurchase will lapse with respect to 20% of the Shares upon securing $20 million in available cash (inclusive of any amounts attributable to Milestone 1);
Milestone 3 -
Company’s right of repurchase will lapse with respect to 20% of the Shares upon securing $30 million in available cash (inclusive of any amounts attributable to Milestone 2);
and (b) cash compensation at a rate of $66,667 per month. The payment of such compensation is subject to Company’s achievement of certain designated milestones, specifically, cash compensation of $800,000 is due consultant upon the achievement of Milestone 1, $800,000 upon the achievement of Milestone 2 and $800,000 upon the achievement of Milestone 3. Upon achieving each Milestone, the cash compensation is to be paid to consultant in the amount then due at the rate of $66,667 per month. The total cash compensation to be received by the consultant is not to exceed $2,400,000 unless the Company receives an amount of funding in excess of the amount specified in Milestone 3. If the Company receives equity or debt financing that is an amount less than Milestone 1, in between any of the above Milestones or greater than the above Milestones, the cash compensation earned by the Consultant under this Agreement will be prorated according to the above Milestones. The Company also has the option to make a lump sum payment to AVP in lieu of all amounts payable thereunder.

On August 15, 2011, Accelerated Acquisitions XII (the “Company”) entered into a Licensing Agreement (“Licensing Agreement”) with Real Hip-Hop Network Broadcast Corporation (“Licensor”) pursuant to which the Company was granted an exclusive, non-transferrable worldwide license for certain first run movies, live concerts, break-dance battles, rhyme competitions, documentaries, news, DJ competitions and interviews (“media content”), distribution platforms, patents, intellectual property, know-how, trade secret information to provide intelligent, family-appropriate Hip-Hop content to a multi-racial/multi-generational demographic.

The Company is an emerging growth company that has licensed media content and distribution platforms to entry into a unique business of providing intelligent, family-appropriate Hip-Hop content to a multi-racial/multi-generational demographic. We will continue to acquire media content as well as internally develop content with the goal of informing and enriching our young adult audience and encouraging their participation across platforms. The Company will operate a television network, The Real Hip-Hop Network (“RHN”), a website, RHN.TV, and RHN Mobile that will distribute media content to mobile devices.

OVERVIEW

The Company licensed all right to Real Hip-Hop Network Broadcast Corporation’s (RHNBC) media content and distribution platforms that include a cable channel that provides intelligent, family-appropriate (family-appropriate “meaning it is considered suitable for all members of the average family”) Hip-Hop content to a multi-racial/multi-generational 18-34 year-old audience demographic. RHN’s website RHN.TV is designed to be the Internet destination for the Company’s target audiences. RHN Mobile delivers music, gaming, and video content to the target audiences on wireless devices across wireless service providers. The Company also intends use its broadband and digital platforms to deliver video streaming content to gaming systems that include: X-BOX 360, NINTENDO Wii, and PLAYSTATION 3. RHN has beta tested the delivery of live streaming version of its video content online and on RHN.TV. RHN has also beta tested its content to over 164,000,000 households in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East through an informal available time brokerage agreement with Ethiopian Broadcast System (EBS). The Company intends to beta test in the United States (“US”) with an estimated audience of 3 million households until the Company can launch commercially through national subscription TV that is estimated to be the fall of 2013. The Company assigned a distribution term sheet with DirecTV, which could allow the Company to launch to a viewership of an estimated 18 million subscribers. The Company was also assigned a term sheet to launch on the DISH Network which could give access to another estimated 14 million subscribers. The Company is evaluating all of the licensors’ distribution agreements and will not take assignment of any agreements until the Company is ready to commercially launch and has accomplished is financing objectives outlined below.

The Company intends to motivate its audiences to make a difference in their lives and communities with a broad and impactful pro-social agenda. In addition to providing a mix of approximately 45% music video-based entertainment, approximately 55% of RHN’s lineup includes original programming revolving around the Hip-Hop lifestyle, culture and pro-social programs, such as first run movies, live concerts, break-dance battles, rhyme competitions, documentaries, news, DJ competitions, interviews and exciting original content. We are currently evaluating all our options to commercialize our licensed content and platforms. The Company’s concept and content has been beta tested and has not been deployed for commercial sale anywhere in the world. Each country has different requirements for deployment, so the commercialization process is likely to be lengthy and complex. The Company may employ different strategies in different areas of the world, such as sublicensing deployment and commercialization rights for some territories while retaining rights for other territories.

Our primary sources of revenue are intended to come from affiliate fees and advertising. Affiliate fees are derived from long-term distribution agreements with cable, satellite and telecommunications operators who pay us a monthly fee for each subscriber household that receives RHN content.

The Company will not be able to commercialize either its media content or distribution platforms without additional capital, if we do not raise additional funds of at least $2 million for the advancement of its content distribution over the next three years we will lose our rights to the media content and distribution platforms. The Company will require significant additional financing in order to meet the milestones and requirements of its Business Plan and avoid discontinuation of the License. Funding would be required for staffing, marketing, public relations and the necessary distribution to expanding the scope of its offering to include the global market. The Company intends to seek at an aggregate of $50,000,000 in 2013 and 2014 through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could dilute existing shareholders. The Company’s funding plans include selling additional capital stock and/or borrowing to fund the aforementioned expenses. The Company intends to approach Hedge Funds, Venture Capital Groups, Private Investment Groups and other Institutional Investment Groups in its efforts to achieve future funding. It is estimated that $7,626,649 will be used for management, sales and marketing, $25,860,155 will be used for the TV network fees, an estimated $5,717,918 will be spent on finance closing, legal, accounting, rent and other payables and $7,179,041 will be spent on production and programming leaving $3,616,237 in reserve for increased working capital.

It’s estimated that the minimum amount of capital the Company needs to raise over the next twelve months is $1 million to continue operations. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise this or any amount of additional capital and a failure to do so would have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s ability, or would cause significant delays in its ability to address the market for content delivery and achieve its Business Plan. Neither the Company nor any of its advisors or consultants has significant experience in raising funds similar to the $50,000,000 estimated to be required.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

The ways in which young adults consume media and engage with news, information and lifestyle content are undergoing profound changes. We believe the dynamic preferences and consumption patterns of young adults are not being adequately addressed by traditional media outlets. At the same time, technology is transforming the way media is created, expanding the universe of content creators, altering the cost structure of content production and distribution, and enabling delivery across multiple platforms. The packaging and programming of content is also evolving, enabling new means of distribution capable of rapidly adapting to changing consumer preferences. As the way young adults engage with news, information and lifestyle content changes, it presents new challenges to networks and advertisers who target the 18-34 year-old audience demographic. These challenges include:

·
Evolution in the media preferences and consumption patterns of young adults. Young adults want to engage with programming related to news, information and lifestyle, but their consumption patterns have evolved faster than traditional television programming, leaving their needs underserved.
 
·
Changes in media programming and production. Digital media tools enable scalable production with relatively low overhead, open systems and small teams, which has changed the way content can be processed, organized and delivered.

·
Evolution in content creation. Changes in the means and cost structure of content production and distribution have significantly expanded the universe of potential content creators. As a result, programming can be a conversation between viewers and a network, offering freedom from one-way communication and resulting in unprecedented engagement and participation.
 
·
Changes in advertising models that drive the media industry. Advertisers devote the largest portion of their media spending to television. However, the traditional TV advertising model is becoming less effective with young adults, who are changing their viewing patterns.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY

We believe there is a significant gap between what is being delivered by traditional sources of TV and what is demanded by young adults. Young adults need and want news and information about what is going on in their world; however, they have not had a news and information source on TV that speaks to them. Young adults increasingly are turning to other platforms, especially the Internet, for news and information.

As a result, there is a large market opportunity to develop an integrated media platform capable of cost-effectively engaging young adults around news, information and lifestyle entertainment, and to build a brand premised on communicating what is going on in the lives of this young-adult generation. There is demand from both young adults and the advertisers who target them for a media platform that engages 18-34 year-olds in their own voices and from their own perspectives, and whose content is defined by what is most important in their lives: from pop culture to politics, careers to relationships.

We believe our media platform will motivate its audiences to make a difference in their lives and communities with a broad and impactful pro-social agenda. In addition, providing a mix of approximately 45% music video-based entertainment, approximately 55% of RHN’s lineup includes original programming revolving around the Hip-Hop lifestyle, culture and pro-social programs, such as first run movies, live concerts, break-dance battles, rhyme competitions, documentaries, news, DJ competitions, interviews and exciting original content provides a compelling way to capture this opportunity.

HIP-HOP MARKET

Originating an estimated 30 years ago as an “underground” urban music genre popular in a few large U.S. cities, Hip-Hop has evolved and expanded into a broadly popular global entertainment and cultural medium. Business Week reported as early as 2005 that there were an estimated 100 million Hip-Hop fans worldwide, including 50 million in the U.S. alone. The following discussion highlights what the Company believes is distinctive appeal of the Hip-Hop market, focusing on the characteristics that make it ideally suited to support the Company’s dedicated programming network. Specifically:
 
 
 
 
6

 
 
 
·
While it has grown far beyond its music roots, Hip-Hop is fundamentally a media-based industry targeting a media-centric audience. It is estimated that Hip-Hop is the second largest selling music category, trailing only Country (for which, by comparison, there are already three dedicated cable networks). There are at least two Hip-Hop radio stations ranked among the top 10 (based on listenership) in nine of the ten largest U.S. markets.

·
Hip-Hop music and culture have broad appeal to a large cross-section of the U.S. teen and young adult population (i.e., individuals aged 12-34). While Hip-Hop retains its popularity and cultural draw in the urban market, the majority of Hip-Hop consumers are Caucasian suburbanites – reflecting the significant (and growing) urban influence on suburban culture. Hip-Hop’s broad appeal has made the genre extremely important and attractive to major advertisers seeking to connect with this difficult to reach young audience.

·
Leading Hip-Hop entertainers have emerged as “One Man Brands,” achieving enormous success in marketing apparel, footwear, video games, etc. – as well as endorsing products and “crossing over” into television and film acting careers.

·
Finally, entertainment and “reality” television programming with Hip-Hop themes is increasingly prevalent and popular, while Hip-Hop videos are estimated to be the most popular genre in the MTV Network’s music menu as well as the most popular programming category on the Black Entertainment Television (“BET”)

The entrepreneurial spirit and savvy of leading Hip-Hop artists initially transformed the marketing landscape by establishing the “One Man Brand.” More recently, Hip-Hop entrepreneurs have increasingly intertwined their own initiatives with the activities of major advertisers and Fortune 500 companies.

PROGRAMMING STRATEGY

Programming is anticipated to be the Company’s fundamental strength and the factor that most distinguishes the network from competitors. We will provide 2-5 times the number of hours devoted to Hip-Hop music videos than existing mainstream music channels. The Company will not only devote more time to current and past Hip-Hop “stars,” but will also devote much more time to emerging artists in the field. In addition, the number of hours of programming the Company will devote to news, magazine, lifestyle and reality shows about and/or featuring Hip-Hop artists will be extremely difficult to duplicate by other networks because our network will initially be built with essentially “no cost” music videos which will form the basis of much of its programming schedule, RHN’s programming strategy allows for greater ability to manage investment, as the business scales.

Programming Themes and Concepts
The Company intends to be flexible with its programming mix and content to respond to its target market. However, the network’s plan is to establish a programming schedule consisting of approximately 45% music video-based entertainment, and about 55% original programming revolving around the Hip-Hop lifestyle and culture. More than half of the original programming is expected to be studio-based shows, magazine shows and documentaries/reality shows produced by the Company (e.g., generally modest cost, hosted shows with interviews and some live performances), while the remaining half of original programming is expected to be acquired and/or bartered from independent producers.

A broad sampling of the specific programming themes and concepts that the network intends to feature include:
 
·
Music video-based programming. We intend to air a number of distinct one-hour blocks of Hip-Hop music videos – some of which will be hosted. Some of the programs will be purely music video playback, while others will include interviews, live performances and studio audiences. The legendary show, Video Juke Box, is anticipated to be aired, hosted by Ralph McDaniels, known as a pioneer who was the first to produce and host a video music show based around Hip-Hop culture and music. VR-20 (Video Request Top 20) will feature the top 20 Rap videos of the day. Hosted by VJs in front of a studio audience, this show will also feature live performances and interviews. The Real Gritty Top 20 will showcase the day’s top 20 underground Hip-Hop videos, selected by viewer request. Rap World will feature blocks of international Hip-Hop music videos. Beauty and the Beats will feature all female artists. In addition, there will be three other blocks of Hip-Hop videos daily on the network. In all, about 45% of the programming week will be devoted to blocks of exclusively Hip-Hop videos. This content will provide a springboard and a cross-promotional tool for other our original and acquired programming.
 
 
 
 
7

 
 
 
·
Live Concert Series. We intend to air up to six original Hip-Hop concerts per year, featuring artists ranging from the well-established to the up-and-coming and these concerts will be repeated throughout the calendar year.

·
News, Magazine Shows, and Daily Talk Show. The Company will produce and acquire a number of topical news and magazine shows that detail relevant news and information about the Hip-Hop community. For example, One Nation Hip-Hop will be an “Entertainment Tonight”-style program providing information about the latest TV shows, movies and sitcoms featuring the biggest and hottest Hip-Hop celebrities. It will also feature current album releases and concert tour information. Analyze This will feature celebrity guests from diverse backgrounds discussing the issues and controversies behind rap lyrics, and Hip-Hop Insider will be a news show featuring politics, news and sports, hosted by RHN VJs. Mogol is a Hip-Hop business show featuring segments on record industry economics, news on the latest deals of superstar Hip-Hop recording artists, and lifestyle segments with showcases of homes, cars and travel destinations of the Hip-Hop elite. Rap Sheet is a Hip-Hop news and commentary show featuring writers from Hip-Hop’s greatest magazines, including Source, Vibe and XXL. Finally, management has plans for a nightly talk show called Hip-Hop Late Nite featuring live guests.

·
Documentary and “Competition” Programming. We will seek to assemble a stable of documentaries and artist profiles/features programs. Legend will chronicle the greatest Hip-Hop legends, while Behind the Platinum will showcase the backstage, behind the scenes scandals, shady deals, violence and murder that exist in the dark corners of the music industry. Dollar and Dream will document the rise of Hip-Hop’s greatest artists. In addition, Unsigned Heat will profile the hottest unsigned MC’s in the business. Competition style programming will include Technics World, a DJ competition, and Rap Wars, a nationwide MC freestyle battle competition. Rap Superstar will be an American Idol-style Rap show with celebrity guest judges. In addition, the Company has acquired and will “re-version” extensive footage and pre-produced segments that have been developed by Pseudo Entertainment and others. Much of this content is of high quality and is readily adaptable for television using low cost post-production techniques. This approach mirrors that often used by The History Channel, Biography and others, to develop quality documentary and reality programming at a modest cost.

·
Entertainment Programming. The Company intends to round out its programming schedule with a number of entertaining shows designed to appeal to segments of its target audience. These shows include:

§  
Kissed or Dissed – a dating show chronicling the dates of Hip-Hop singles culminating in whether their partners will be kissed or dissed.
 
§  
Beneath the World Order – a Company original animated series.

§  
Flip Side – a reality show where two people from different worlds switch places.
 
§  
Chrome – a program dedicated to Hip-Hop’s love affair with cars.

§  
Street Skillz: Street Ball Tournament – hosted by popular former MTV hosts Ed Lover and Dr. Dre, this show offers the winner of a street basketball tournament a workout with NBA scouts.
 
§  
Couture with Toni – a fashion show based on Hip-Hop fashion hosted by the Company’s personalities.

§  
Every Woman has a Story – a show on women and their struggles.
 
§

In the event distribution and revenue proceed at a different pace than projected, the Company has the flexibility to adopt a different programming mix (e.g., exhibit more “no cost” music videos) and thereby contain costs.

Key elements of the Company’s programming model include:

·
Acquired entertainment programming/partnerships with existing niche producers. We believe that much of the acquired entertainment programming can be obtained at a modest cost. In addition, by partnering with existing niche producers for the development of certain ongoing original programming, The Company anticipates to be able to obtain distribution rights to a significant amount of content at no cash cost (i.e., on a barter basis). Our production staff will support the creation of an expanded number of programs by these partners and ensure an on-air look consistent with the network’s overall format.

·
Acquired and re-versioned documentary programming. By employing a combination of acquired documentary programming and utilization of post-production resources to enhance and package footage and segments obtained at little or no cost from sources we will be able to offer an appealing array of documentary-style content at a very feasible total cost.

·
Original studio production. A significant percentage of our original programming will be studio-based. Most shows (whether news, magazine, talk shows or hosted music video segments) will be hosted by staff VJs and will feature interviews and live performances from Hip-Hop artists looking to promote their latest work. Costs for this programming can be carefully managed. Hosted music video programs will feature wrap-around introductions and commentary produced efficiently in the studio as well.

·
Opportunity for multiple airings. Much of the Company’s programming can be aired on multiple occasions, providing viewers with additional opportunities for viewing the content, while also minimizing costs. Given the network’s reliance on music videos, most of our annual programming needs will be constantly refreshed at little or no cost, as music labels/record companies will provide new releases of music videos on a continual basis. This is expected to account for about 3,600 hours of the approximate 8,000 hours of annual programming needed by the Company. The remaining programming hours will be filled with modest-cost acquired programming and no-cost bartered programming, as well as original Company productions. Acquired programming is expected to be repeated as many as ten times and original Company productions are expected to be repeated on average as many as six times.

DISTRIBUTION and MARKETING STRATEGY

The strategy is to provide content to its audience across all available media outlets: Broadcast TV, Broadcast Radio, Cable/Satellite, Broadband Internet, Print, mobile video, and gaming systems. In order for a media company to be competitive, it must have a multi-platform distribution strategy. Advertisers who are seeking to reach the coveted 18-34 demographic must reach beyond traditional spots and dots and cover the spectrum of all the most popular media platforms. The trend in media is portability and access to content when and where you want it. The successful new media company will be everywhere there audience is.

The Company was assigned a distribution term sheet with DirecTV, which could allow the Company to launch to a viewership of an estimated 18 million subscribers. The Company was also assigned a term sheets to launch on the DISH Network which could give access to another estimated 14 million subscribers. The Company is evaluating all of the licensors distribution agreements and will not take assignment of any agreements until the Company is ready to commercially launch and has accomplished is financing objectives outlined in the “Plan of Operations” section below.

Management believes that the network’s programming will attract viewership and that the network’s concept will engender strong grass roots support from Hip-Hop fans. As such, the network’s overall distribution and consumer marketing strategy is focused on the following:

·
Exposure. Marketing our network with key strategic partners, such as Fortune 500 companies, which are now recognizing the enormous size of the Hip-Hop Community. We will appoint a sales team to utilize approach on large and multiple opportunity advertisers.

·
Grass roots support. RHN recently completed the production of a major Hip-Hop concert event, and will continue to pursue grass roots marketing campaigns and develop launch and other promotional events that will attract Hip-Hop fans. These activities will not only contribute to the buzz and success of market-specific launches, they will also create broadened awareness of and interest in the network among Hip-Hop fans throughout the country. These fans will then be actively encouraged to support the network’s distribution efforts through follow-up targeted marketing campaigns.

·
Sponsorship: Promoting our services at television media industry shows as well as Hip-Hop events across the country and early stage advertising, in areas of potential viewership.

·
Source magazine promotion. The Company will also consistently promote the Hip-Hop Network and encourage grass roots support through its widely read partners and influential Source and Vibe magazines. Source and Vibe reaches the core of the Hip-Hop fan base – and provides a very effective means for stimulating “word-of-mouth” about the Real Hip-Hop Network.

Radio

The Company intends to acquire Local Marketing Agreements with broadcasters in strategic markets in the United States. Broadcast affiliates have already been identified. This strategy will create a radio presence for the Real Hip-Hop Network Brand with cross promotion capability with its broadcast foot print starting in New York City, NY, Los Angeles, CA, Chicago, IL and Washington, DC.
Digital Content Delivery

The Company anticipates broad distribution through digital platforms to cross promote our brands and sell digital content subscriptions through our web and TV properties. Ringtones, Wallpaper, and Music Video Downloads may be made available for a monthly subscription fee. The Company also intends to leverage its television viewing audience to create a mobile text community. The network has a short code that will be used to get gain revenue through fee-based music video or contest voting like other television shows.

Smart Phone Media Distribution

According to CTIA-The Wireless Association® an international nonprofit membership organization that has represented the wireless communications industry since 1984 states that the cell phone universe has over 300 million mobile subscribers, and the number of smart phone users will exceed 70 million in the U.S. in 2011. The Company intends to have mobile applications platforms and use existing platforms to make available a mobile version of its channel to be streamed live to all smart phones.

Broadband

The web is the next frontier of the media world. RHN.TV intends to create a virtual audience build out from the channels national fan base. The network will stream its channel to the site live 24 hours a day and post popular shows on the site to be viewed on-demand. Free RHN.TV e-mail addresses will be made available to the public as well as social networking and video file sharing like youtube.com. Premium digital content will be bought and sold online. RHN.TV will use existing popular social networking platforms to create and maintain an active and growing network of RHN fans and supporters.

Web-Based Marketing

Critical to producing visibility and traffic is the use of the Web for advertising. We plan to have a campaign which will increase traffic and contribute to "brand recognition" and "brand loyalty" through a combination of search engine listings with meta-tags that produce search results in the top 10 on listings for Hip-Hop information. With the advent of WebTV, we believe that the prospect of entering more homes as a menu option delivered by a portal site like AOL or Google could enhance media exposure and visitation. The advent of broadband Internet services will be important but will not reduce our primary presence on “standard” television.

Marketing Schedule

Our final model, content, product brand and technology are all under development. We intend our initial launch will occur in the fall of 2013. We intend to place banner advertisements on our strategic partner sites which are yet to be determined. Also, we intend to have an aggressive marketing plan to solicit priority partner sponsorship from a host of providers currently serving the customers of this Hip-Hop Community. We are taking steps to a validated list of prospects for online advertising. We plan to negotiate with other Web sites to purchase our banner inventory.

AFFILIATE SALES STRATEGY

The Company understands that opportunities for new networks to secure analog and even digital basic distribution are extremely limited and often require significant launch incentive payments that substantially increase the investment associated with the network. Further, we are aware that its core audience is both highly coveted by advertisers and intensely interested in the network’s subject matter. For these reasons, the Company believes it can succeed as a service distributed via digital tiers and plans to seek inclusion in reasonably priced digital programming tiers that target a young adult audience. We may also be willing to explore ala carte distribution, if plans like those recently put in place by large networks become increasingly common.

In addition to positioning the network for tiered distribution, management intends to aggressively pursue early stage distribution by alternative video providers, most notably the major telephone companies. It is believed that securing distribution via these outlets will significantly enhance prospects for carriage among the more established cable and satellite distributors. Specifically, both Verizon and SBC have publicly announced plans to offer a range of programming choices that far exceeds anything currently available to consumers. Further, because these companies are collectively building their fiber-based distribution networks in nearly every major market in the country, widespread carriage of RHN may place pressure on cable and satellite distributors on essentially a nationwide basis with a particular emphasis on the markets where the Hip-Hop’s appeal is likely to be greatest.

The Company will focus its distribution and consumer marketing efforts on major urban markets with significant African-American population concentrations and where Hip-Hop-formatted radio stations are consistently among the leading local radio outlets.

ADVERTISING SALES STRATEGY

The Company’s advertising sales strategy centers on leveraging three primary strengths: (1) the appeal of its target audience; (2) unique cross-media packaging opportunities; and (3) the network’s expected major market concentration. The Company’s ability to capitalize on these key strengths is anticipated to be supported by strategic alliance within young adult marketing organizations.
 
Our advertising sales attributes are outlined in additional detail below:

Attractive audience demographics and strong appeal to major advertisers. The Hip-Hop audience is concentrated in the hard-to-reach 12-34 demographic. Major advertisers are already aligning with Hip-Hop personalities as a means for reaching this demographic with extraordinary results. As examples, sales of products including Reebok footwear, Courvoisier and Cadillac are all reported to have increased dramatically as a result of Hip-Hop marketing relationships or in some instances the mere mention of the product in a Hip-Hop song.

Niche appeal to selected key brands/product categories. In addition to Hip-Hop’s appeal to major advertisers, the culture/lifestyle is closely aligned with certain brands and product categories, including clothing and footwear lines designed by or for Hip-Hop artists, as well as selected other products in the automotive, beverage and retail category. The Company intends to provide a natural vehicle for these advertisers to reach a loyal and lucrative customer base. Just a few examples of industries with leading brands endorsed by Hip-Hop personalities include: Automotive, Soft Drinks, Malt Beverages, Footwear, Beauty/Hygiene and others.

Magazine partnership. We intend to partner with Hip-Hop magazines that will enable the Company to advertise in proven print media outlets that hold strong appeal and have an established market position in the Hip-Hop segment. In addition to differentiating us from competing networks, packaging may allow the Company to generate significant advertising revenues at an earlier stage than is typically possible for standalone program networks.

Concentration in major markets. It is anticipated that the Company’s initial distribution will be concentrated in the country’s largest television markets. These markets are the highest priority for major advertisers, suggesting that the Company may be able to interest larger advertisers even in its early stages of development.

COMPETITIVE ENVIROMENT

Competitors to what the Company is offering include:

·
MTV Networks. Following its launch as the first video music network in 1981, Viacom subsidiary Music Television (MTV) changed the television landscape and ultimately the music industry. In 2009, MTV was among the most widely distributed cable networks, available to over 98 million homes. While still effectively targeting the 12-34 demographic, MTV has substantially changed its programming format in recent years to feature reality programming such as The Real World and other series’ such as the popular Pimp My Ride.

·
BET Networks. Black Entertainment Television (BET) launched in 1980. In 2009, BET was available to 90 million homes worldwide. BET provides a range of programming intended to reflect African-American culture, including educational programs, sports, public affairs and music content. Further, the popularity of BET’s music programming led the organization to develop BET Jazz – which is available to approximately over 11 million homes and features jazz videos, films and documentaries.

 
11

 


·
TV One. TV One targets African American adults (i.e., the 25-54 demographic) with a mix of lifestyle programming, classic series, movies, fashion and music content. With ownership including Radio One, Comcast and DIRECTV, TV One is estimated to have attained distribution to 18 million homes in its first year of operation, and is current available to 48 million households. This network reflects the subscription TV industry’s growing interest in enhancing its appeal to the African American market.

·
VH1 Networks. Also owned by Viacom, the VH1 family of networks provides a range of music video and music-centered programming – geared primarily to the 25-54 demographic. In 2009, VH1 was available to 97 million households.

·
FUSE. Owned by Rainbow Media, FUSE promoted itself as the “only all-music, viewer-influenced television network.” FUSE programming includes music videos, artist interviews, live concerts and specials that emphasize “alternative” rock. In certain respects, FUSE is suggestive of the potential for RHN – as a truly music-centered alternative to the MTV family, with a concentrated emphasis on the 12-34 demographic and a particular, popular music-based lifestyle.
 
The Company intends to differentiate itself through a full-time focus on Hip-Hop content, the range of its coverage of the Hip-Hop culture, its unique understanding of the Hip-Hop lifestyle that emanates from direct involvement in the industry, and its focus on delivering higher-quality, family-appropriate Hip-Hop content to a multi-generational demographic.

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

The scope of communications regulations to which we or our distributors are subject varies from country to country. Typically, video programming regulation in each of the countries in which we or our distributors operate or plan to operate requires that domestic broadcasters and platform providers secure certain licenses from the domestic communications authority. Additionally, most nations have communications legislation and regulations that set standards regarding program content and the content and scheduling of television advertisements. Most nations also have legislation and regulations that provide that a certain portion of programming carried by broadcasters or multi-channel video programming distributors be produced domestically and to some degree be sourced from domestic production companies that are independent of the distributor. Some jurisdictions in which we plan to operate have strict censorship of content, and prohibited content may vary substantially over time.

In most countries, communications regulations are generally subject to periodic and ongoing governmental review and legislative initiatives that may affect the nature of programming we are able to offer and the means by which it is distributed. For example, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission, or FCC, is considering expansion of the exclusivity ban on programmers affiliated with cable operators to programmers affiliated with satellite networks. Any such restrictions, if adopted, could adversely affect our ability to negotiate with satellite programming distributors should we become subject to any such rules. In addition, some policymakers maintain that cable and satellite operators should be required to offer programming to subscribers on a network-by-network, or б la carte, basis or to provide "family friendly" program tiers. The unbundling or tiering of program services could result in reduced subscriber households and advertising revenues and increased marketing expenses. The timing, scope or outcome of these reviews and initiatives could be unfavorable to us, and any changes to current communications legislation or regulations could require adjustments to our operations.

The laws relating to the liability of providers of online services are currently unsettled both within the U.S. and abroad. Claims against other companies with online businesses similar to ours have been threatened and filed under both U.S. and foreign law for defamation, libel, invasion of privacy and other data protection, tort, unlawful activity, copyright or trademark infringement or other theories based on ads posted on a website and content generated by a website's users. Compliance with these laws is complex and may impose significant additional costs on us and restrictions on our business. Any failure to comply with these laws could subject us to significant liability.

Plan of Operation

The Company licensed all rights to Real Hip-Hop Network Broadcast Corporations (RHNBC) media content and distribution platforms that include a cable channel that provides intelligent, family-appropriate (family-appropriate “meaning it is considered suitable for all members of the average family”) Hip-Hop content to a multi-racial/multi-generational 18-34 year-old audience demographic. RHN’s website RHN.TV is designed to be the Internet destination for the Company’s target audiences. RHN Mobile delivers music, gaming, and video content to the target audiences on wireless devices across wireless service providers. The Company also intends use its broadband and digital platforms to deliver video streaming content to gaming systems that include: X-BOX 360, NINTENDO Wii, and PLAYSTATION 3. RHN has beta tested the delivery of live streaming version of its video content online and on RHN.TV. RHN has also beta tested its content to over 164,000,000 households in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East through an informal available time brokerage agreement with Ethiopian Broadcast System (EBS). The Company intends to beta test in the United States (“US”) with an estimated audience of 3 million households until the Company can launch commercially through national subscription TV that is estimated to be the fall of 2013. The Company assigned a distribution term sheet with DirecTV, which could allow the Company to launch to a viewership of an estimated 18 million subscribers. The Company was also assigned a term sheet to launch on the DISH Network which could give access to another estimated 14 million subscribers. The Company is evaluating all of the licensors distribution agreements and will not take assignment of any agreements until the Company is ready to commercially launch and has accomplished its financing objectives outlined below.

The Company intends to motivate its audiences to make a difference in their lives and communities with a broad and impactful pro-social agenda. In addition to providing a mix of approximately 45% music video-based entertainment, approximately 55% of RHN’s lineup includes original programming revolving around the Hip-Hop lifestyle, culture and pro-social programs, such as first run movies, live concerts, break-dance battles, rhyme competitions, documentaries, news, DJ competitions, interviews and exciting original content. We are currently evaluating all our options to commercialize our licensed content and platforms. The Company’s concept and content has been beta tested and has not been deployed for commercial sale anywhere in the world. Each country has different requirements for deployment, so the commercialization process is likely to be lengthy and complex. The Company may employ different strategies in different areas of the world, such as sublicensing deployment and commercialization rights for some territories while retaining rights for other territories.

Our primary sources of revenue are intended to come from affiliate fees and advertising. Affiliate fees are derived from long-term distribution agreements with cable, satellite and telecommunications operators who pay us a monthly fee for each subscriber household that receives RHN content.

On August 3, 2011, The Real Hip-Hop Network, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Licensing Agreement (“Licensing Agreement”) with Real Hip-Hop Network Broadcast Corporation (“Licensor”) pursuant to which the Company was granted an exclusive, non-transferrable worldwide license for certain first run movies, live concerts, break-dance battles, rhyme competitions, documentaries, news, DJ competitions and interviews (“media content”), distribution platforms, patents, intellectual property, know-how, trade secret information to provide intelligent, family-appropriate Hip-Hop content to a multi-racial/multi-generational demographic.

Except for the rights granted under the License Agreement, Licensor retains all rights, title and interest to the content and any additions thereto—although the License includes the Company’s right to utilize such additions. The term of the License commences on the date of the Licensing Agreement and continues for thirty (30) years, provided that the Licensee is not in breach or default of any of the terms or conditions contained in this Agreement. In addition to other requirements, the continuation of the License is conditioned on the Company generating net revenues in the normal course of operations or the funding by the Company of specified amounts for qualifying distribution and commercialization expenses related to the media content. In addition, the Company is required to fund certain specified expenses related to the distribution of the media content as specified in the License Agreement. The license is terminated upon the occurrence of events of default specified in the License Agreement and outlined as followed: If any of the Parties are in breach or default of the terms or conditions contained in this Agreement and do not rectify or remedy that breach or default within 90 days from the date of receipt of notice by the other party requiring that default or breach to be remedied, then the other party may give to the party in default a notice in writing terminating this Agreement.

The Company is an emerging growth company that has licensed media content and distribution platforms to entry into a unique business of providing intelligent, family-appropriate Hip-Hop content to a multi-racial/multi-generational demographic. We will continue to acquire media content as well as internally develop content with the goal of informing and enriching our young adult audience and encouraging their participation across platforms. The Company will operate a television network, The Real Hip-Hop Network (“RHN”), a website, RHN.TV, and RHN Mobile that will distribute media content to mobile devices.

It’s estimated that the minimum amount of capital the Company needs to raise over the next twelve months is $1 million to continue operations. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise this or any amount of additional capital and a failure to do so would have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s ability, or would cause significant delays in its ability to address the market for content delivery and achieve its Business Plan. Neither the Company nor any of its advisors or consultants has significant experience in raising funds similar to the $50,000,000 estimated to be required.

The Company will not be able to commercialize either its media content or distribution platforms without additional capital, if we do not raise additional funds of at least $2 million for the advancement of its content distribution over the next three years it will lose its rights to the media content and distribution platforms. The Company will require significant additional financing in order to meet the milestones and requirements of its Business Plan and avoid discontinuation of the License. Funding would be required for staffing, marketing, public relations and the necessary distribution to expanding the scope of its offering to include the global market. The Company intends to seek an aggregate of $50,000,000 in 2013 and 2014 through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could dilute existing shareholders. The Company’s funding plans include selling additional capital stock and/or borrowing to fund the aforementioned expenses. The Company intends to approach Hedge Funds, Venture Capital Groups, Private Investment Groups and other Institutional Investment Groups in its efforts to achieve future funding. The Company therefore intends to raise an aggregate of $50 million in 2013 and 2014, the proceeds of which would be utilized as follows:

Going Concern

We have incurred net losses of $114,391 since inception through March 31, 2013. At March 31, 2013 we had no cash and no other assets and our total liabilities were $109,626. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements from inception through March 31, 2013 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon recurring operating losses and our need to obtain additional financing to sustain operations. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities when they become due and to generate sufficient revenues from our operations to pay our operating expenses. There are no assurances that we will continue as a going concern.

Results of Operations

For the period from inception (May 4, 2010) through March 31, 2013, the Company had no activities that produced revenues from operations and had a net loss of $(114,391), consisting of $380 for the estimated fair value of stock-based compensation and $114,011 for legal, accounting, audits and other professional service fees incurred in relation to the formation of the Company and the filing of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 filed in August 2008, and other SEC-related compliance matters that have been incurred by and funded by AVP.
 
During the year ended March 31, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement under which it agreed to grant stock-based compensation to Accelerated Venture Partners (AVP) for extending consulting services to the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to grant AVP 3,800,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.0001 per share.
 
The Company has estimated the value of common stock into which the stock was granted to AVP at $.0001 per share for financial reporting purposes. This amount was determined based management’s estimate of fair value of stock options granted in the current and prior year as approximating par value. The stock based compensation expense is an estimate and significant judgment was involved in attempting to determine the value of common stock.
 
The Company’s common stock has never traded publicly, and no stock has traded in private markets either, except for privately negotiated sales to investors, the founder of the Company and the founder of the technology from which the Company subsequently licensed rights. No common stock has been sold in any transactions since the Company emerged from its shell-company status. The Company does not have any offers for purchase of its common stock in any stage, and no stock is registered for resale with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
The Company believes the only material estimate used in estimating the fair value stock options was the estimated fair value of the common stock, and that assumed volatility, term, interest rate and dividend of yield changes would be not result in material differences in stock option valuations. Based on the assumed value of common stock, the grant-date fair value of stock granted during the year ended March 31, 2013 was $380. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $380 during the three months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, which was all included in general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were lower for the year ended in March 31, 2013 compared to the year ended March 31, 2012 due to lower professional fees. We expect that, if we are successful in securing additional capital, future general and administrative expenses will increase significantly as compared to the year ended March 31, 2013. In addition, we expect to incur development expenses as we seek to advance our products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2013, we had a cash balance of only $0. There were no other assets, and accrued expenses were $109,626, all due to AVP, a related party. We had a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $109,626 and no means to pay the liabilities in excess of our assets. AVP has agreed to fund certain administrative operating expenses of RHN until the Company succeeds in raising additional funds, at which point the administrative operating expenses will be due. However, AVP may seek to force earlier payment of the amounts which we owe, or AVP may decide in the future not to continue funding costs on behalf of RHN, although we are not aware of any plans for them to do so. If we are not successful in raising additional capital, we may not be able to pay our liabilities and may have to cease operations.

Funding would be required for staffing, marketing, public relations and the necessary distribution to expanding the scope of its offering to include the global market. The Company intends to seek an aggregate of $50,000,000 in 2013 and 2014 through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could dilute existing shareholders. The Company’s funding plans include selling additional capital stock and/or borrowing to fund the aforementioned expenses. The Company intends to approach Hedge Funds, Venture Capital Groups, Private Investment Groups and other Institutional Investment Groups in its efforts to achieve future funding. It estimated the minimum amount of capital the Company needs to raise over the next twelve months is $2 million to continue operations. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise this or any amount of additional capital and a failure to do so would have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s ability, or would cause significant delays in its ability to address the market and achieve its Business Plan. Neither the Company nor any of its advisors or consultants has significant experience in raising funds similar to the $50,000,000 estimated to be required.

We have a consulting agreement with AVP under which AVP has agreed to provide us with certain advisory services that include reviewing our business plan, identifying and introducing prospective financial and business partners, and providing general business advice regarding our operations and business strategy. Under the consulting agreement, cash compensation of $800,000 is due to AVP upon our securing $10 million in available cash from funding, and an additional $800,000 is due upon our securing $20 million in available cash from funding (inclusive of the first $10 million). The cash compensation is to be paid to AVP at the rate of $66,667 per month. The total cash compensation to be received by AVP under the consulting agreement is not to exceed $2,400,000 unless we receive an amount of funding in excess of $30 million. If we receive equity or debt financing that is an amount less than $10 million, in between $10 million and $30 million, or greater than $30 million, the cash compensation earned by the AVP under its consulting services agreement will be prorated. We have the option to make a lump sum payment to AVP in lieu of the monthly cash payments.

We plan to measure our future liquidity primarily by the cash and working capital available to fund our operations, if do not have enough capital available to fund our operations, as stated above. We will not be able to commercialize our products without additional capital. We are evaluating various means of raising our initial capital, including through the sale of equity securities, licensing agreements or other means. We expect to incur losses for at least several years into the future as we develop our products and we are unable to estimate when, if ever, we will receive revenue or have a positive cash flow.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors. 

Seasonality
 
Our operating results are not affected by seasonality.

Inflation

Our business and operating results are not affected in any material way by inflation.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Securities and Exchange Commission issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60, "Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies" suggesting that companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies.  In Financial Reporting Release No. 60, the Securities and Exchange Commission has defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and operating results, and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.  The nature of our business generally does not call for the preparation or use of estimates.  Due to the fact that the Company does not have any operating business, we do not believe that we do not have any such critical accounting policies.

Stock-Based Compensation

We plan to account for stock awards granted to recipients using an estimate of the fair value of the stock award on the date that the award is granted. This estimated fair value will be recognized as an expense in the statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the underlying stock option, generally four years for employees. There is a high degree of subjectivity involved in estimating the input values needed to estimate the fair value of stock options and other awards. For the Company in particular, our stock has never traded and therefore it will be difficult to determine the underlying fair value of our common stock on each date a stock award is made. Changes in any of the assumptions required to estimate the fair value, particularly the estimated value of the underlying stock and the estimated volatility, as well as the estimated term of the options, can materially affect the resulting estimates of the fair values of the awards that are granted. Also, the expenses recorded for stock-based compensation in our financial statements may differ significantly from the actual value realized by the recipients of the stock options, and these expenses are not adjusted to the actual amounts, if any, realized by the stock option recipients. Users of the financial statements should also understand that the expenses we recognize for stock-based compensation do not result in payments of cash by us.

Revenue Recognition

The Company plans to recognize revenues, if any are earned, when the Company’s performance requirements have been fulfilled, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue from license fees with non-cancelable, non-refundable terms and no future performance obligations would be recognized when collection is assured. Milestone payments would be recognized when the Company or a third-party fulfills the development milestone requirements and collection is assured. The Company expects that future royalty revenue, if any, would be recorded when payments are received, since the Company does not expect that it will be able to reasonably estimate the sales upon which the royalties are based.

If the Company enters into revenue arrangements with multiple components, the Company expects to divide the components into separate units of accounting if specified criteria are met, including whether the delivered component has stand-alone value to the customer, and whether there is objective reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered items. Consideration received would be allocated among the separate units of accounting based on their relative fair values, and the applicable revenue recognition criteria identified and applied to each of the units.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We recently commenced our operations and do not believe that there are any recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have not adopted which are likely to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or other disclosures.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
The Real Hip-Hop Network, Inc.
(Formally known as Accelerated Acquisition XII, Inc.)
 (A Development Stage Company)

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of The Real Hip-Hop Network, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2013, and the related statements of operations, stockholder's deficit and cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from inception (May 4, 2010) to March 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2012, were audited by other auditor, whose report, dated June 27, 2012, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and also included an explanatory paragraph that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as, evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended and for the period from inception (May 4, 2010) to March 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company is a development stage enterprise, had an accumulated deficit of $114,391 as of March 31, 2013 and continues to experience losses. These considerations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2 which contemplates equity financing through a reverse merger transaction and/ or related party advances. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2013
 
1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
(a)    Company Description
The Real Hip-Hop Network, Inc. (formally known as Accelerated Acquisitions XII, Inc. the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on May 4, 2010. The Company was initially formed as a shell company with no operations while it sought new business opportunities. On August 15, 2011, the Company licensed all right to RHN media content and distribution platforms that include a cable channel that provides intelligent, family-appropriate Hip-Hop content to a multi-racial/multi-generational 18-34 year-old audience demographic. RHN’s website RHN.TV is designed to be the Internet destination for the Company’s target audiences. RHN Mobile delivers music, gaming, and video content to the target audiences on wireless devices across wireless service providers.

The Company also intends to use its broadband and digital platforms to deliver video streaming content to gaming systems that include: X-BOX 360, NINTENDO Wii, and PLAYSTATION 3. RHN has beta tested the delivery of live streaming version of its video content online and on RHN.TV. RHN has also beta tested its content to over 164,000,000 households in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East through an informal available time brokerage agreement with Ethiopian Broadcast System (EBS). RHN will continue to beta test in the United States (“US”) with an estimated audience of 3 million households until the Company can launch commercially through national subscription TV that is estimated to be the fall of 2013. RHN assigned the Company a distribution term sheet with DirecTV, which could allow the Company to launch to a viewership of an estimated 18 million subscribers. RHN has also assigned a term sheets to the Company to launch on the DISH Network which could give access to another estimated 14 million subscribers. In addition, The Company is evaluating all of the licensors distribution agreements and will not take assignment of any agreements until the Company is ready to commercially launch and has accomplished is financing objectives outlined below.

Our primary sources of revenue are affiliate fees and advertising. Affiliate fees are derived from long-term distribution agreements with cable, satellite and telecommunications operators who pay us a monthly fee for each subscriber household that receives RHN content.

(b)
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP").
 
 (c)
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 (d)
Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden
parachute payments not previously approved.

Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, “emerging growth companies” can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected not to avail ourselves to this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, we will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.”

(e)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company did not have cash equivalents as of March 31, 2013.

THE REAL HIP-HOP NETWORK, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2013

 
(f)
Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period.  The Company has incurred a loss during the current period, therefore any potentially dilutive shares are excluded, as they would be anti-dilutive. The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments for this reporting period.
 
(g)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally, the Company adopted guidance for fair value measurement related to nonfinancial items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
•  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
 
•  Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
 
•  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
 
The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Adopted
 
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210):  Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11).  The amendments in ASU 2011-11 require the disclosure of information on offsetting and related arrangements for financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position.  Amendments under ASU 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013.  The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
 
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02).  This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI).  The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income.  However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto.  Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail.  This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.  The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

Not Adopted
 
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date. The amendments in ASU 2013-04 provide guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this Update is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in U.S. GAAP. The guidance requires an entity to measure those obligations as the  sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The guidance in this Update also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about those obligations. The amendments in this standard are effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-04 will have on our financial statements.
 
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity. The amendments in ASU No. 2013-05 resolve the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation—Overall, or Subtopic 830-30, Foreign Currency Matters—Translation of Financial Statements, applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) within a foreign entity. In addition, the amendments in this Update resolve the diversity in practice for the treatment of business combinations achieved in stages (sometimes also referred to as step acquisitions) involving a foreign entity. The amendments in this standard are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning December 15, 2013. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-05 will have on our financial statements.
 
In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Top 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The objective of ASU No. 2013-07 is to clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting and to provide principles for the measurement of assets and liabilities under the liquidation basis of accounting, as well as any required disclosures. The amendments in this standard is effective prospectively for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-07 will have on our financial statements.
 
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.
 
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statement, the Company has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $114,391, due to shareholder of $109,626 and had $0 cash as of March 31, 2013. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing necessary for it to meet its obligations, develop the products that it has licensed, and ultimately generate revenues from the sale of these products. The Company’s founder has agreed to fund certain administrative operating expenses of the Company until the Company succeeds in raising additional funds. Management’s plans include raising additional funds through an equity financing or licensing transaction in order to meet the Company’s obligations and develop its product candidates, but funding may not be available and the Company may be unsuccessful in raising additional capital of any type. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise as a result of this uncertainty.

On July 16, 2011, SSM Media Ventures, Inc. (“Purchaser”) agreed to acquire 22,350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock par value $0.0001 for a price of $0.0001 per share. At the same time, Accelerated Venture Partners, LLC agreed to tender 3,500,000 of their 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock par value $0.0001 for cancellation. Following these transactions, SSM Media Ventures owned approximately 94% of the Company’s 23,850,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock par value $0.0001 and the interest of Accelerated Venture Partners, LLC was reduced to approximately 6% of the total issued and outstanding shares. Simultaneously with the share purchase, Timothy Neher resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors and Atonn Muhammad was simultaneously appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors. Such action represents a change of control of the Company.

The Purchaser used its working capital to acquire the Shares. The Purchaser did not borrow any funds to acquire the Shares. Prior to the purchase of the shares, the Purchaser was not affiliated with the Company. However, the Purchaser will be deemed an affiliate of the Company after the share purchase as a result of its stock ownership interest in the Company. The purchase of the shares by the Purchaser was completed pursuant to written Subscription Agreements with the Company. The purchase was not subject to any other terms and conditions other than the sale of the shares in exchange for the cash payment. The Company intends to file a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware in order to change its name to “Real Hip-Hop Network, Inc.”.

On July 18, 2011, the Company entered into a Consulting Services Agreement with Accelerated Venture Partners LLC (“AVP”), a company controlled by Timothy J. Neher.

NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES
 
The Company has incurred net operating losses since inception. The Company has not reflected any benefit of such net operating loss carry forward in the financial statements.  

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income.

Based on the level of historical taxable losses and projections of future taxable income (losses) over the periods in which the deferred tax assets can be realized, management currently believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of these deductible differences. Accordingly, the Company has provided a valuation allowance against the gross deferred tax assets as follows:
   
March 31, 2013
   
March 31, 2012
 
Gross deferred tax assets 
  $ 109,626     $ 74,711  
Valuation allowance 
    (109,626 )     (74,711 )
Net deferred tax asset 
  $     $  

As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $109,626 and $74,711, which will begin to expire in the tax year 2028.

Federal tax laws impose significant restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credits in the event of a change in ownership of the Company, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credits may be subject to the above limitations.
The relevant FASB standard resulted in no adjustments to the Company’s liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of the date of adoption and as of March 31, 2013, there were no unrecognizable tax benefits. Accordingly, a tabular reconciliation from beginning to ending periods is not provided. The Company will classify any future interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense if incurred. To date, there have been no interest or penalties charged or accrued in relation to unrecognized tax benefits.  The Company is subject to federal and state examinations for the year 2008 forward. There are no tax examinations currently in progress.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2013


As permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with its Bylaws, the Company indemnifies its officers and directors for certain expenses incurred from legal or other proceedings that arise as a result of the director or officer’s service to the Company. There is no limitation on the term of the indemnification and the maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited. The Company currently does not have a directors and officers insurance policy that could limit its exposure and enable it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company believes the fair value of these officer and director indemnification agreements is minimal, and, accordingly, has not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of March 31, 2012.

From time to time, the Company may be involved in claims and other legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Management is not currently aware of any matters that it believes are likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations.
