On January 26, 2012, Lamar Advertising Company issued a press release announcing that its wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media Corp., has agreed to sell $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2022 through an institutional private placement (the “Notes Offering”). The Company had previously announced a proposed notes offering of $400 million in aggregate principal amount, and the size of the Notes Offering was increased to $500 million in aggregate principal amount. Subject to customary closing conditions, the closing of the Notes Offering is expected on or about February 9, 2012. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein in accordance with Rule 135c of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Also on January 26, 2012, Lamar Advertising Company issued a press release announcing that Lamar Media Corp. has amended its previously announced tender offer to purchase a portion of its outstanding 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015, 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series B and 6 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015—Series C (collectively, the “6 5/8% Notes”). The amendment increased the aggregate principal amount of 6 5/8% Notes that will be purchased in the tender offer from $500 million to $600 million, but all other terms and conditions remained the same. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated by reference herein.
