Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 18, 2014, Lamar Media Corp. (“Lamar Media”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Lamar Advertising Company (“Lamar Advertising” or the “Company”), entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Lamar Advertising, certain of Lamar Media’s subsidiaries as Guarantors, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent and the Lenders named therein under which the parties agreed to amend Lamar Media’s existing senior credit facility on the terms set forth in the Amendment. The Amendment creates a new $300 million Term A Loan facility (the “Term A Loans”) and certain other amendments to the senior credit agreement. The Term A Loans are not incremental loans and do not reduce the existing $500 million Incremental Loan facility. Lamar Media borrowed all $300 million in Term A Loans on April 18, 2014. The net loan proceeds, together with borrowings under the revolving portion of the senior credit facility and cash on hand, were used to fund the redemption of all $400 million in aggregate principal amount of Lamar Media’s 7 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 on April 21, 2014.

The Term A Loans mature on February 2, 2019 and will begin amortizing on June 30, 2014 in quarterly installments paid on such date and on each September 30, December 31, March 31 and June 30 thereafter, as follows:

 

Principal Payment Date		Principal Amount
June 30, 2014- March 31, 2016		$	3,750,000
June 30, 2016- March 31, 2017		$	5,625,000
June 30, 2017- December 31, 2018		$	11,250,000
Term A Loan Maturity Date		$	168,750,000

The Term A Loans shall bear interest at rates based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate (“Eurodollar Term A Loans”) or the Adjusted Base Rate (“Base Rate Term A Loans”), at Lamar Media’s option. Eurodollar Term A Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 2.00% (or the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.75% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1). Base Rate Term A Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus 1.00% (or the Adjusted Base Rate plus 0.75% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1). The guarantees, covenants, events of default and other terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement apply to the Term A Loans.

The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

Please refer to the discussion under Item 1.01 above, which is incorporated under this Item 2.03 by reference.
