Item 8.01. Other Events.
On February 6, 2012, Lamar Advertising Company issued a press release announcing that its wholly owned subsidiary, Lamar Media Corp. (“Lamar Media”), 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 may be purchased in the tender offer from up to $600 million to up to $700 million. The tender offer was also amended to include the closing of a $100 million term loan A facility under Lamar Media’s existing senior credit facility as a condition to Lamar Media’s obligation to complete the tender offer. All other terms and conditions remained the same. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
******
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements regarding Lamar Media’s contemplated term loan A facility. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those results indicated in the forward-looking statements include Lamar Media’s ability to close the term loan A facility and a decline in advertising spending. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not an offer to buy, or the solicitation of an offer to sell, securities, nor a solicitation for acceptance of the tender offer for the 6 5/8% Notes.
