ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On June 17, 2014, Beasley Mezzanine Holdings, LLC (the “Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement dated as of August 9, 2012 by and among the Borrower, General Electric Capital Corporation, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”).

The Amendment (i) amends the credit agreement so that upon achieving a total leverage ratio of 3.00:1.00 (A) the amount of dividends the Company may pay per year is increased, (B) the requirement to prepay the term loans using excess cash flow is removed, and (C) the amount of cash equivalents that the Borrower may maintain outside of an account with one of the Lenders is increased, (ii) extends the maturity date of the Borrower’s term loans for an additional 2 years to August 2019, (iii) decreases the interest rate on all loans by 0.25% and adds an additional step-down in the interest rate upon achieving a total debt leverage ratio of 2.75:1.00, and (iv) increases the total leverage ratio required to be maintained under the financial covenant for the first six month of 2015 by 0.25%. In connection with the Amendment, the Borrower is also exercising its option to incur an additional $5.75 million of incremental term loan debt, the proceeds of which will be used with cash on the balance sheet to repay outstanding principal on the Borrower’s revolving loans.
