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. (the “Company”) included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. 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) FCC Broadcasting Licenses

The change in the carrying amount of FCC broadcasting licenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 is as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2011	$	178,913,816
Acquisition of translator license		45,000
Balance as of March 31, 2012	$	178,958,816

On January 17, 2012, the Company began using a translator to rebroadcast the programming of one of its radio stations in Augusta, GA. The Company acquired the translator license from Edgewater Broadcasting, Inc. for $45,000. Translator licenses are generally granted for renewable terms of eight years. The licenses are not amortized but are tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired.

(3) Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt is comprised of the following:

	December 31, 2011			March 31, 2012
Credit facility:
Revolving credit loan	$	54,826,716		$	54,826,716
Term loan		71,906,903			68,554,725
		126,733,619			123,381,441
Less current installments		(6,848,276	)		(6,688,264	)
	$	119,885,343		$	116,693,177

As of March 31, 2012, the credit facility consists of a revolving credit loan with a maximum commitment of $65.0 million and a term loan with a remaining balance of $68.6 million. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $7.9 million in remaining commitments available under the revolving credit loan of its credit facility. The revolving credit loan includes a $5.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit which may not be increased. At the Company’s election, the revolving credit loan and term loan may bear interest at either the base rate or LIBOR plus a margin that is determined by the Company’s debt to operating cash flow ratio. The base rate is equal to the higher of the prime rate, the federal funds effective rate, or the one month LIBOR quoted rate plus 1.0%. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly through maturity. Interest on LIBOR loans is payable on the last day of the selected LIBOR period and, if the selected period is longer than three months, every three months after the beginning of the LIBOR period. The revolving credit loan and term loan carried interest, based on LIBOR, at 3.8125% and 3.75% as of December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, respectively, and mature on June 30, 2015. The scheduled reductions in the amount available under the revolving credit loan may require principal repayments if the outstanding balance at that time exceeds the maximum amount available under the revolving credit loan.

BEASLEY BROADCAST GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

As of March 31, 2012, the scheduled repayments of the credit facility for the remainder of 2012 and the next three years are as follows:

	Revolving credit loan		Term loan		Total credit facility
2012	$	—	$	5,016,199	$	5,016,199
2013		5,146,508		7,942,316		13,088,824
2014		20,426,389		8,360,332		28,786,721
2015		29,253,819		47,235,878		76,489,697
Total	$	54,826,716	$	68,554,725	$	123,381,441

The credit agreement requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants which are defined in the credit agreement. As of March 31, 2012, these financial covenants included:

• Consolidated Total Debt Ratio. The Company’s consolidated total debt for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not exceed 4.75 times its consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters then ended.

• Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio. The Company’s consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not be less than 2.0 times its consolidated cash interest expense for the four quarters then ended.

• Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Company’s consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not be less than 1.1 times its consolidated fixed charges for the four quarters then ended. Consolidated fixed charges include cash paid for interest, income taxes, capital expenditures, scheduled principal repayments, and agency and commitment fees.

Failure to comply with these financial covenants, scheduled interest payments, scheduled principal repayments, or any other terms of its credit agreement 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, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under its credit agreement.

The credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets and is guaranteed jointly and severally by all of the Company’s subsidiaries. The guarantees were issued to the Company’s lenders for repayment of the outstanding balance of the credit facility. If the Company defaults under the terms of the credit agreement, the subsidiaries may be required to perform under their guarantees. As of March 31, 2012, the maximum amount of undiscounted payments the subsidiaries would have had to make in the event of default was $123.4 million. The guarantees for the revolving credit loan and term loan expire on June 30, 2015.

(4) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company’s interest rate swap agreements expired in 2011 therefore it is no longer a party to any derivative financial instruments. Prior to these expirations, the Company used interest rate swap agreements as part of its interest rate risk management strategy to fix its cost of variable rate debt and designated those swap agreements as cash flow hedges of its variable rate debt. The fair values of the expired interest rate swap agreements were determined using observable inputs. The inputs were quotes from the counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements.

A summary of activity relating to the expired interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges is as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2011			2012
Loss recognized in other comprehensive income	$	(18,395	)	$	—
Loss reclassified from other comprehensive income to interest expense		781,972			—

(5) 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.

(6) Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 40% and 39% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively, which differ from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to the effect of state income taxes and certain of the Company’s expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes.

(7) Non-Cash Operating and Investing Activities

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company finalized the terms of a long-term lease agreement for a radio tower in Boston, MA. The terms of the agreement resulted in a $1.3 million reclassification of leasehold improvements previously reported in property and equipment to long-term prepaid rent in other assets.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion together with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. The results discussed below are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future periods. This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements may include the words “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect” or “anticipate” and other similar words. Such forward-looking statements may be contained in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” among other places. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in any of our forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in any of our forward-looking statements. Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to change and to inherent risks and uncertainties, such as unforeseen events that would cause us to broadcast commercial-free for any period of time and changes in the radio broadcasting industry generally. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any forward-looking statement. Key risks to our company are described in our annual report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2012.

General

We are a radio broadcasting company whose primary business is operating radio stations throughout the United States. We own and operate 42 radio stations in the following markets: Atlanta, GA, Augusta, GA, Boston, MA, Fayetteville, NC, Fort Myers-Naples, FL, Greenville-New Bern-Jacksonville, NC, Las Vegas, NV, Miami-Fort Lauderdale, FL, Philadelphia, PA, West Palm Beach-Boca Raton, FL, and Wilmington, DE. We also operate one radio station in the expanded AM band in Augusta, GA. In addition, we provide management services to two radio stations in Las Vegas, NV. We refer to each group of radio stations in each radio market as a market cluster.

Recent Developments

On February 14, 2012, we contributed an additional $62,500 to Digital PowerRadio, LLC which maintained our 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 Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc.

On January 17, 2012, we began using a translator to rebroadcast the programming of one of our radio stations in Augusta, GA. We acquired the translator license from Edgewater Broadcasting, Inc. for $45,000.

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.

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;

10

• 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 interactive 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, 2011. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the first quarter of 2012.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011

The following summary table presents a comparison of our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 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
	2011		2012		$			%
Net revenue	$	23,052,102	$	23,298,608	$	246,506			1.1	%
Station operating expenses		15,431,981		15,505,304		73,323			0.5
Corporate general and administrative expenses		2,056,856		2,040,345		(16,511	)		(0.8	)
Interest expense		2,366,839		1,346,171		(1,020,668	)		(43.1	)
Income tax expense		1,028,633		1,559,049		530,416			51.6
Net income		1,549,396		2,407,996		858,600			55.4

Net Revenue. The $0.2 million increase in net revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in advertising revenue at our Fayetteville market cluster.

11

Station Operating Expenses. Station operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 were comparable to the same period in 2011.

Corporate General and Administrative Expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 were comparable to the same period in 2011.

Interest Expense. The $1.0 million decrease in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2012 was due to repayments of borrowings under our credit facility and the expiration of interest rate swap agreements during the first and third quarters of 2011.

Income Tax Expense. Our effective tax rate was approximately 40% and 39% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively, which differ from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to the effect of state income taxes and certain of our expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes.

Net Income. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased $0.9 million as a result of the factors described above.

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 prohibits us from repurchasing additional shares of our common stock until our consolidated total debt is less than five times our consolidated operating cash flow at which time we are permitted to repurchase up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of our common stock. Our credit agreement does permit us to repurchase up to $0.5 million of our common stock per year in connection with the vesting of restricted stock. We repurchased 30,754 shares of our Class A common stock for an aggregate $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Our credit agreement prohibits us from paying cash dividends on our common stock until our consolidated total debt is less than five times our consolidated operating cash flow at which time we are permitted to pay cash dividends in an amount up to an aggregate of $5.0 million per year. We did not pay any cash dividends during the three months ended March 31, 2012.

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 facility;

• additional borrowings, other than under our existing credit facility, 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, unanticipated acquisition opportunities or unanticipated expenses could give rise to defaults under our credit facility, 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 total debt ratio, as defined by our credit agreement, by increasing operating cash flow and/or decreasing long-term debt will determine how much, if any, of the remaining commitments under the revolving portion of our 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 total leverage ratio and we may not be permitted to make any additional borrowings under the revolving portion of our credit facility.

The following summary table presents a comparison of our capital resources for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 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,
	2011			2012
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	4,379,900		$	5,605,488
Net cash used in investing activities		(1,029,428	)		(362,531	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(3,289,763	)		(3,536,000	)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	60,709		$	1,706,957

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to a $1.0 million decrease in cash paid for interest and a $0.3 million decrease in cash paid for income taxes. These increases in net cash provided by operating activities were partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in cash paid for station operating expenses.

Net Cash Used In Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily due to cash payments for capital expenditures of $0.4 million. Net cash used in investing activities for the same period in 2011 was primarily due to cash payments of $0.8 million for investments and cash payments for capital expenditures of $0.2 million.

Net Cash Used In Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily due to repayments of $3.4 million under our credit facility and $0.1 million for repurchases of our Class A common stock. Net cash used in financing activities for the same period in 2011 was primarily due to repayments of $3.2 million under our credit facility and payments of $0.2 million for repurchases of our Class A common stock.

Credit Facility. As of April 27, 2012, the outstanding balance of our credit facility was $123.4 million. As of March 31, 2012, the credit facility consists of a revolving credit loan with a maximum commitment of $65.0 million and a term loan with a remaining balance of $68.6 million. As of March 31, 2012, we had $7.9 million in remaining commitments available under the revolving credit loan of our credit facility. The revolving credit loan includes a $5.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit which may not be increased. At our election, the revolving credit loan and term loan may bear interest at either the base rate or LIBOR plus a margin that is determined by our debt to operating cash flow ratio. The base rate is equal to the higher of the prime rate, the federal funds effective rate, or the one month LIBOR quoted rate plus 1.0%. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly through maturity. Interest on LIBOR loans is payable on the last day of the selected LIBOR period and, if the selected period is longer than three months, every three months after the beginning of the LIBOR period. The revolving credit loan and term loan carried interest, based on LIBOR, at 3.8125% and 3.75% as of December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, respectively, and mature on June 30, 2015. The scheduled reductions in the amount available under the revolving credit loan may require principal repayments if the outstanding balance at that time exceeds the maximum amount available under the revolving credit loan.

As of March 31, 2012, the scheduled repayments of the credit facility for the remainder of 2012 and the next three years are as follows:

	Revolving credit loan		Term loan		Total credit facility
2012	$	—	$	5,016,199	$	5,016,199
2013		5,146,508		7,942,316		13,088,824
2014		20,426,389		8,360,332		28,786,721
2015		29,253,819		47,235,878		76,489,697
Total	$	54,826,716	$	68,554,725	$	123,381,441

The credit agreement requires us to comply with certain financial covenants which are defined in the credit agreement. As of March 31, 2012, these financial covenants included:

• Consolidated Total Debt Ratio. Our consolidated total debt for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not exceed 4.75 times our consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters then ended.

• Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio. Our consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not be less than 2.0 times our consolidated cash interest expense for the four quarters then ended.

• Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Our consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not be less than 1.1 times our consolidated fixed charges for the four quarters then ended. Consolidated fixed charges include cash paid for interest, income taxes, capital expenditures, scheduled principal repayments, and agency and commitment fees.

Failure to comply with these financial covenants, scheduled interest payments, scheduled principal repayments, or any other terms of our credit agreement 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, 2012, we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under our credit agreement; our consolidated total debt ratio was 4.46 times, our consolidated interest coverage ratio was 4.62 times, and our consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.78 times.

The credit agreement also contains other customary restrictive covenants. These covenants limit our ability to: incur additional indebtedness and liens; repurchase our common stock; pay cash dividends; enter into certain investments or joint ventures; consolidate, merge or effect asset sales; enter into sale and lease-back transactions; sell or discount accounts receivable; enter into transactions with affiliates or stockholders; or change the nature of our business.

The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets and is guaranteed jointly and severally by all of our subsidiaries. The guarantees were issued to our lenders for repayment of the outstanding balance of the credit facility. If we default under the terms of the credit agreement, our subsidiaries may be required to perform under their guarantees. As of March 31, 2012, the maximum amount of undiscounted payments our subsidiaries would have had to make in the event of default was $123.4 million. The guarantees for the revolving credit loan and term loan expire on June 30, 2015.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Long-Term Debt

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2012

Long-Term Debt [Abstract]

Long-Term Debt

(3) Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt is comprised of the following:

	December 31, 2011			March 31, 2012
Credit facility:
Revolving credit loan	$	54,826,716		$	54,826,716
Term loan		71,906,903			68,554,725
		126,733,619			123,381,441
Less current installments		(6,848,276	)		(6,688,264	)
	$	119,885,343		$	116,693,177

As of March 31, 2012, the credit facility consists of a revolving credit loan with a maximum commitment of $65.0 million and a term loan with a remaining balance of $68.6 million. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $7.9 million in remaining commitments available under the revolving credit loan of its credit facility. The revolving credit loan includes a $5.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit which may not be increased. At the Company's election, the revolving credit loan and term loan may bear interest at either the base rate or LIBOR plus a margin that is determined by the Company's debt to operating cash flow ratio. The base rate is equal to the higher of the prime rate, the federal funds effective rate, or the one month LIBOR quoted rate plus 1.0%. Interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly through maturity. Interest on LIBOR loans is payable on the last day of the selected LIBOR period and, if the selected period is longer than three months, every three months after the beginning of the LIBOR period. The revolving credit loan and term loan carried interest, based on LIBOR, at 3.8125% and 3.75% as of December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012, respectively, and mature on June 30, 2015. The scheduled reductions in the amount available under the revolving credit loan may require principal repayments if the outstanding balance at that time exceeds the maximum amount available under the revolving credit loan.

As of March 31, 2012, the scheduled repayments of the credit facility for the remainder of 2012 and the next three years are as follows:

	Revolving credit loan		Term loan		Total credit facility
2012	$	—	$	5,016,199	$	5,016,199
2013		5,146,508		7,942,316		13,088,824
2014		20,426,389		8,360,332		28,786,721
2015		29,253,819		47,235,878		76,489,697
Total	$	54,826,716	$	68,554,725	$	123,381,441

The credit agreement requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants which are defined in the credit agreement. As of March 31, 2012, these financial covenants included:

• Consolidated Total Debt Ratio. The Company's consolidated total debt for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not exceed 4.75 times its consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters then ended.

• Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio. The Company's consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not be less than 2.0 times its consolidated cash interest expense for the four quarters then ended.

• Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Company's consolidated operating cash flow for the four quarters ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2015 must not be less than 1.1 times its consolidated fixed charges for the four quarters then ended. Consolidated fixed charges include cash paid for interest, income taxes, capital expenditures, scheduled principal repayments, and agency and commitment fees.

Failure to comply with these financial covenants, scheduled interest payments, scheduled principal repayments, or any other terms of its credit agreement 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.

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 presented below:

Vested		(88,683	)		6.16
Unvested as of March 31, 2012		139,901		$	4.00

As of March 31, 2012, 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 1.4 years.

(4) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company's interest rate swap agreements expired in 2011 therefore it is no longer a party to any derivative financial instruments. Prior to these expirations, the Company used interest rate swap agreements as part of its interest rate risk management strategy to fix its cost of variable rate debt and designated those swap agreements as cash flow hedges of its variable rate debt. The fair values of the expired interest rate swap agreements were determined using observable inputs. The inputs were quotes from the counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements.

A summary of activity relating to the expired interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges is as follows:
