NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(1) Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The Company’s results are subject to seasonal fluctuations therefore the results shown on an interim basis are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

(2) Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The guidance requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are that are not required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that provide additional detail about those amounts. The new guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of 2013 with no material impact on its financial statements.

(3) FCC Broadcasting Licenses

The change in the carrying amount of FCC broadcasting licenses for the three months ended March 31, 2013 is as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2012	$	183,251,728
Acquisition of translator licenses		30,000
Balance as of March 31, 2013	$	183,281,728

On January 11, 2013, the Company acquired two translator licenses from Reach Communications, Inc. for $30,000. The translator licenses allow the Company to rebroadcast the programming of one of its radio stations in Fort Myers-Naples, FL on the FM band over and expanded area of coverage. Translator licenses are generally granted for renewable terms of eight years and are tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired.

(4) Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt is comprised of the following:

	December 31,			March 31,
	2012			2013
First lien facility:
Term loan		86,750,000			85,750,000
Revolving credit facility		5,000,000			5,000,000
Second lien facility:
Term loan		25,000,000			25,000,000
		116,750,000			115,750,000
Less current installments		(3,500,000	)		(4,625,000	)
	$	113,250,000		$	111,125,000

As of March 31, 2013, the first lien facility consisted of a term loan with a remaining balance of $85.7 million and a revolving credit facility with a maximum commitment of $20.0 million. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had $15.0 million in remaining commitments available under its revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility includes a $5.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The first lien facility carried interest, based on the adjusted LIBOR rate, at 5.18% and 5.15% as of December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, respectively, and matures on August 9, 2017.

BEASLEY BROADCAST GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The first lien credit agreement requires mandatory prepayments equal to 50% of consolidated excess cash flow, as defined in the first lien credit agreement, when the Company’s consolidated total debt is equal to or greater than three times its consolidated operating cash flow, as defined in the first lien credit agreement. The mandatory prepayments decrease to 25% of excess cash flow when the Company’s consolidated total debt is less than three times its consolidated operating cash flow. Mandatory prepayments of consolidated excess cash flow are due 120 days after year end. The credit agreement also requires mandatory prepayments for defined amounts from net proceeds of asset sales, net insurance proceeds, and net proceeds of debt issuances.

The first lien facility requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants which are defined in the first lien credit agreement. These financial covenants include:

• Consolidated Total Debt Ratio. The Company’s consolidated total debt on the last day of each fiscal quarter through March 31, 2013 must not have exceeded 5.25 times its consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters then ended. The maximum ratio is 5.0 times for the period from April 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013. The maximum ratio is 4.5 times for 2014, 4.0 times for 2015, 3.5 times for 2016, and 3.0 times for 2017.

• Interest Coverage Ratio. The Company’s consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through maturity must not be less than 2.0 times its consolidated cash interest expense for the four quarters then ended.

As of March 31, 2013, the second lien facility consisted of a term loan of $25.0 million. The second lien facility carried interest, based on the adjusted LIBOR rate, at 11.25% as of December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013.

On April 3, 2013, the second lien facility was prepaid in full (see note 10).

Failure to comply with financial covenants, scheduled interest payments, scheduled principal repayments, or any other terms of its credit agreements could result in the acceleration of the maturity of its outstanding debt. The Company believes that it will have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to permit it to meet its financial obligations for at least the next twelve months. As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under its credit agreements.

(5) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is a party to two interest rate cap agreements which limit its cost of variable rate debt on a portion of its term loans. The interest rate cap agreements have an aggregate notional amount of $57.5 million and cap LIBOR at 1% on an equivalent amount of the Company’s term loans. The interest rate cap agreements terminate in September 2014. The interest rate caps were not designated as hedging instruments. As of March 31, 2013, the fair value of the interest rate caps, reported in other assets, was approximately $21,000. The fair values of the interest rate caps were determined using observable inputs (Level 2). The inputs were quotes from the counterparties to the interest rate cap agreements. The change in fair value, reported in interest expense, was approximately $2,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

(6) Stock-Based Compensation

The Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2007 Plan”) permits the Company to issue up to 4.0 million shares of Class A common stock. The 2007 Plan allows for eligible employees, directors and certain consultants of the Company to receive shares of restricted stock, stock options or other stock-based awards. The restricted stock awards that have been granted under the 2007 Plan generally vest over one to five years of service.

A summary of restricted stock activity under the 2007 Plan is as follows:

	Shares			Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Unvested as of January 1, 2013		123,718		$	3.86
Granted		80,000			6.11
Vested		(89,517	)		3.77
Forfeited		350			3.15
Unvested as of March 31, 2013		114,551		$	5.78

BEASLEY BROADCAST GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

As of March 31, 2013, there was $0.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock granted under the 2007 Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years.

The 2000 Equity Plan of Beasley Broadcast Group. Inc. (the “2000 Plan”) was terminated upon adoption of the 2007 Plan, except with respect to outstanding awards. The remaining stock options expire ten years from the date of grant. No new awards will be granted under the 2000 Plan.

A summary of stock option activity under the 2000 Plan is as follows:

	Options			Weighted- Average Exercise Price
Outstanding as of January 1, 2013		178,084		$	13.92
Forfeited		(7,000	)		10.13
Outstanding and exercisable as of March 31, 2013		171,084		$	14.07

As of March 31, 2013, the weighted-average remaining contractual term was 0.7 years and the aggregate intrinsic value was zero for stock options granted under the 2000 Plan.

(7) Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 39% and 30% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2013, respectively, which differ from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to the effect of state income taxes, certain expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes, and changes in the valuation allowance for certain deferred tax assets which management has determined, more likely than not, that such losses will not be utilized. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013, also reflects a $0.3 million decrease from a change to the Company’s state tax effective rate.

(8) Related Party Transaction

On April 12, 2013, the Company contributed an additional $104,167 to Digital PowerRadio, LLC which maintained its ownership interest at approximately 20% of the outstanding units. Digital PowerRadio, LLC is managed by Fowler Radio Group, LLC which is partially-owned by Mark S. Fowler, an independent director of the Company.

(9) Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of notes receivable from related parties with a fixed rate of interest of 6.0% was $2.6 million as of March 31, 2013, compared with a fair value of $2.8 million based on current market interest rates. The carrying amount of notes receivable from related parties was $2.7 million as of December 31, 2012, compared with a fair value of $2.9 million.

The carrying amount of long term debt, including the current installments, was $115.7 million as of March 31, 2013 and approximated fair value based on current market rates. The carrying amount of long-term debt was $116.7 million as of December 31, 2012 and approximated fair value based on current market rates.

(10) Subsequent Event

On April 3, 2013, the Company amended its first lien credit agreement. The amendment waived certain restrictions to permit the prepayment of the $25.0 million second lien facility in full with $20.0 million of additional term loan borrowings and $2.0 million of additional revolving credit facility borrowings from the first lien facility and $3.0 million of cash on hand. The amendment also modified the interest rate margins on the term loan. In connection with the amended credit agreement, the Company expects to record a loss on extinguishment of long-term debt of $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2013.

8

BEASLEY BROADCAST GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The amended first lien facility consists of a term loan with a remaining balance of $105.7 million and a revolving credit facility with a maximum commitment of $20.0 million. As of April 3, 2013, the Company had $13.0 million in remaining commitments available under its revolving credit facility. At the Company’s election, the first lien facility may bear interest at either (i) the adjusted LIBOR rate, as defined in the first lien credit agreement, plus a margin ranging from 3.5% to 5.0% that is determined by the Company’s consolidated total debt ratio, as defined in the first lien credit agreement or (ii) the base rate, as defined in the first lien credit agreement, plus a margin ranging from 2.5% to 4.0% that is determined by the Company’s consolidated total debt ratio. Interest on adjusted LIBOR rate loans is payable at the end of each applicable interest period and, for those interest periods with a duration in excess of three months, the three month anniversary of the beginning of such interest period. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly in arrears.

The amended first lien facility is secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of substantially all of its subsidiaries and is guaranteed jointly and severally by the Company and substantially all of its subsidiaries. The guarantees were issued to the Company’s lenders for repayment of the outstanding balance of the first lien facility. If the Company defaults under the terms of the first lien credit agreement, the Company and its applicable subsidiaries may be required to perform under their guarantees. As of April 3, 2013, the maximum amount of undiscounted payments the Company and its applicable subsidiaries would have had to make in the event of default was $112.7 million. The guarantees for the first lien facility expire on August 9, 2017.

The aggregate scheduled principal repayments of the amended credit facility for the remainder of 2013 and the next four years are as follows:

	Term loan		Revolving credit facility		Total
2013	$	3,250,000	$	—	$	3,250,000

The amendment waived certain restrictions to permit the prepayment of the $25.0 million second lien facility in full with $20.0 million of additional term loan borrowings, $2.0 million of additional revolving credit facility borrowings from the first lien facility and $3.0 million of cash on hand. The amendment also modified the interest rate margins on the term loan. In connection with the amended credit agreement, we expect to record a loss on extinguishment of long-term debt of $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2013.

On January 11, 2013, we acquired two FM translator licenses from Reach Communications, Inc. for $30,000. The translator licenses allow us to rebroadcast the programming of one of our radio stations in Fort Myers-Naples, FL on the FM band over an expanded area of coverage.

Financial Statement Presentation

The following discussion provides a brief description of certain key items that appear in our financial statements and general factors that impact these items.

Net Revenue.Our net revenue is primarily derived from the sale of advertising airtime to local and national advertisers. Net revenue is gross revenue less agency commissions, generally 15% of gross revenue. Local revenue generally consists of advertising airtime and digital sales to advertisers in a radio station’s local market either directly to the advertiser or through the advertiser’s agency. National revenue generally consists of advertising airtime sales to agencies purchasing advertising for multiple markets. National sales are generally facilitated by our national representation firm, which serves as our agent in these transactions.

10

Our net revenue is generally determined by the advertising rates that we are able to charge and the number of advertisements that we can broadcast without jeopardizing listener levels. Advertising rates are primarily based on the following factors:

• a radio station’s audience share in the demographic groups targeted by advertisers as measured principally by quarterly reports issued by the Arbitron Ratings Company;

• the number of radio stations, as well as other forms of media, in the market competing for the attention of the same demographic groups;

• the supply of, and demand for, radio advertising time; and

• the size of the market.

Our net revenue is affected by general economic conditions, competition and our ability to improve operations at our market clusters. Seasonal revenue fluctuations are also common in the radio broadcasting industry and are primarily due to variations in advertising expenditures by local and national advertisers. Our revenues are typically lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year.

We use trade sales agreements to reduce cash paid for operating costs and expenses by exchanging advertising airtime for goods or services; however, we endeavor to minimize trade revenue in order to maximize cash revenue from our available airtime.

We also continue to invest in digital support services to develop and promote our radio station websites. We derive revenue from our websites through the sale of advertiser promotions and advertising on our websites and the sale of advertising airtime during audio streaming of our radio stations over the internet.

Operating Expenses.Our operating expenses consist primarily of (1) programming, engineering, sales, advertising and promotion, and general and administrative expenses incurred at our radio stations, (2) general and administrative expenses, including compensation and other expenses, incurred at our corporate offices, and (3) depreciation and amortization. We strive to control our operating expenses by centralizing certain functions at our corporate offices and consolidating certain functions in each of our market clusters.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if:

• it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made; and

• changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

Our critical accounting estimates are described in Item 7 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the first quarter of 2013.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements are described in Note 2 to the accompanying financial statements.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012

The following summary table presents a comparison of our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 with respect to certain of our key financial measures. These changes illustrated in the table are discussed in greater detail below. This section should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to financial statements included in Item 1 of this report.

	Three months ended March 31,				Change
	2012		2013		$			%

11

Net Revenue.Net revenue increased $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Significant factors affecting net revenue included a $1.0 million increase in advertising revenue from our Philadelphia market cluster, a $0.3 million increase from our Fort Myers market cluster, and $0.7 million of additional net revenue from KOAS-FM in Las Vegas, NV which was acquired in the third quarter of 2012. Net revenue was comparable to the same period in 2012 at our remaining market clusters.

Station Operating Expenses.Station operating expenses increased $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Significant factors affecting station operating expenses included a $0.4 million increase at our Philadelphia market cluster and $0.4 million of additional station operating expenses from KOAS-FM in Las Vegas, NV. Station operating expenses were comparable to the same period in 2012 at our remaining market clusters.

Corporate General and Administrative Expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2013 were comparable to the same period in 2012.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $0.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Significant factors affecting interest expense included an increase in borrowing costs under the credit agreements we entered into in the third quarter of 2012 and a decrease in long-term debt outstanding.

Income Tax Expense.Our effective tax rate was approximately 39% and 30% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2013, respectively, which differ from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to the effect of state income taxes, certain expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes, and changes in the valuation allowance for certain deferred tax assets which management has determined, more likely than not, that such losses will not be utilized. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013, also reflects a $0.3 million decrease from a change to our state tax effective rate.

Net Income. Net income during the three months ended March 31, 2013 was comparable to the same period in 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview. Our primary sources of liquidity are internally generated cash flow and our revolving credit loan. Our primary liquidity needs have been, and for the next twelve months and thereafter are expected to continue to be, for working capital, debt service, and other general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures and radio station acquisitions. Historically, our capital expenditures have not been significant. In addition to property and equipment associated with radio station acquisitions, our capital expenditures have generally been, and are expected to continue to be, related to the maintenance of our studio and office space and the technological improvement, including upgrades necessary to broadcast HD Radio, and maintenance of our broadcasting towers and equipment. We have also purchased or constructed office and studio space in some of our markets to facilitate the consolidation of our operations.

Our credit agreement permits us to repurchase additional shares of our common stock, subject to compliance with financial covenants, up to an aggregate amount of $0.5 million per year. We paid $0.2 million to repurchase 34,380 shares during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Our credit agreement permits us to pay cash dividends, subject to compliance with financial covenants, up to an aggregate amount of $4.0 million for 2013, $5.0 million for each of 2014 and 2015, and $6.0 million for each year thereafter. We did not pay any cash dividends during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

We expect to provide for future liquidity needs through one or a combination of the following sources of liquidity:

• internally generated cash flow;

• our credit facilities;

12

• additional borrowings, other than under our existing credit facilities, to the extent permitted thereunder; and

• additional equity offerings.

We believe that we will have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to permit us to provide for our liquidity requirements and meet our financial obligations for the next twelve months. However, poor financial results or unanticipated expenses could give rise to defaults under our credit facilities, additional debt servicing requirements or other additional financing or liquidity requirements sooner than we expect and we may not secure financing when needed or on acceptable terms.

Our ability to reduce our consolidated total debt ratio, as defined by our credit agreements, by increasing operating cash flow and/or decreasing long-term debt will determine how much, if any, of the remaining commitments under our revolving credit facility will be available to us in the future. Poor financial results or unanticipated expenses could result in our failure to maintain or lower our consolidated total debt ratio and we may not be permitted to make any additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

The following summary table presents a comparison of our capital resources for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 with respect to certain of our key measures affecting our liquidity. The changes set forth in the table are discussed in greater detail below. This section should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to financial statements included in Item 1 of this report.

	Three months ended March 31,
	2012			2013
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	5,605,488		$	3,934,476
Net cash used in investing activities		(362,531	)		(243,285	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(3,536,000	)		(1,128,387	)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	1,706,957		$	2,562,804

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $1.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Significant factors affecting net cash provided by operating activities included a $1.2 million increase in station operating expenses, a $0.6 million increase in interest payments, and a $0.4 million increase in cash receipts from the sale of advertising airtime.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2013 included payments of $0.3 million for capital expenditures. Net cash used in investing activities for the same period in 2012 included payments of $0.4 million for capital expenditures.

Net Cash Used In Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2013 included repayments of $1.0 million under our credit facilities and payments of $0.2 million for repurchases of our Class A common stock. Net cash used in financing activities for the same period in 2012 included repayments of $3.4 million under our credit facility and payments of $0.1 million for repurchases of our Class A common stock.

Credit Facilities. As of April 26, 2013, the aggregate outstanding balance of our credit facilities was $112.7 million. As of March 31, 2013, the first lien facility consisted of a term loan with a remaining balance of $85.7 million and a revolving credit facility with a maximum commitment of $20.0 million. As of March 31, 2013, we had $15.0 million in remaining commitments under our revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility includes a $5.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The first lien facility carried interest, based on the adjusted LIBOR rate, at 5.15% as of March 31, 2013 and matures on August 9, 2017.

The first lien credit agreement requires mandatory prepayments equal to 50% of consolidated excess cash flow, as defined in the first lien credit agreement, when our consolidated total debt is equal to or greater than three times our consolidated operating cash flow as defined in the first lien credit agreement. The mandatory prepayments decrease to 25% of excess cash flow when our consolidated total debt is less than three times our consolidated operating cash flow. Mandatory prepayments of consolidated excess cash flow are due 120 days after year end. The credit agreement also requires mandatory prepayments for defined amounts from net proceeds of asset sales, net insurance proceeds, and net proceeds of debt issuances.

13

The first lien facility requires us to comply with certain financial covenants which are defined in the first lien credit agreement. These financial covenants include:

• Consolidated Total Debt Ratio. Our consolidated total debt on the last day of each fiscal quarter through March 31, 2013 must not have exceeded 5.25 times our consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters then ended. The maximum ratio is 5.0 times for the period from April 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013. The maximum ratio is 4.5 times for 2014, 4.0 times for 2015, 3.5 times for 2016, and 3.0 times for 2017.

• Interest Coverage Ratio. Our consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through maturity must not be less than 2.0 times our consolidated cash interest expense for the four quarters then ended.

As of March 31, 2013, the second lien facility consisted of a term loan of $25.0 million. The second lien facility carried interest, based on the adjusted LIBOR rate, at 11.25% as of March 31, 2013.

Failure to comply with financial covenants, scheduled interest payments, scheduled principal repayments, or any other terms of our credit agreements could result in the acceleration of the maturity of our outstanding debt, which could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. As of March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under our credit agreements; our consolidated total debt ratio was 3.46 times, and our interest coverage ratio was 4.62 times.

On April 3, 2013, we amended our first lien credit agreement. The amendment waived certain restrictions to permit the prepayment of the $25.0 million second lien facility in full with $20.0 million of additional term loan borrowings and $2.0 million of additional revolving credit facility borrowings from the first lien facility and $3.0 million of cash on hand. The amendment also modified the interest rate margins on the term loan. In connection with the amended credit agreement, we expect to record a loss on extinguishment of long-term debt of $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2013.

The amended first lien facility consists of a term loan with a remaining balance of $105.7 million and a revolving credit facility with a maximum commitment of $20.0 million. As of April 3, 2013, we had $13.0 million in remaining commitments available under our revolving credit facility. At our election, the first lien facility may bear interest at either (i) the adjusted LIBOR rate, as defined in the first lien credit agreement, plus a margin ranging from 3.5% to 5.0% that is determined by our consolidated total debt ratio, as defined in the first lien credit agreement or (ii) the base rate, as defined in the first lien credit agreement, plus a margin ranging from 2.5% to 4.0% that is determined by our consolidated total debt ratio. Interest on adjusted LIBOR rate loans is payable at the end of each applicable interest period and, for those interest periods with a duration in excess of three months, the three month anniversary of the beginning of such interest period. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly in arrears.

The amended first lien facility is secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of substantially all of its subsidiaries and is guaranteed jointly and severally by the Company and substantially all of its subsidiaries. The guarantees were issued to our lenders for repayment of the outstanding balance of the first lien facility. If we default under the terms of the first lien credit agreement, the Company and its applicable subsidiaries may be required to perform under their guarantees. As of April 3, 2013, the maximum amount of undiscounted payments the Company and its applicable subsidiaries would have had to make in the event of default was $112.7 million. The guarantees for the first lien facility expire on August 9, 2017.

The aggregate scheduled principal repayments of the amended credit facility for the remainder of 2013 and the next four years are as follows:

	Term loan		Revolving credit facility		Total
2013	$	3,250,000	$	—	$	3,250,000
2014		6,875,000		—		6,875,000
2015		8,250,000		—		8,250,000
