Senior Credit Facility

On March 16, 2018, Lamar Media Corp. entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 15, 2017, 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 the existing senior credit facility to establish a new $600,000 Term B Loan Facility (the “Term B loan”), which will mature on March 16, 2025. The Term B loan began amortizing on June 30, 2018 in equal quarterly installments of $1,500 with the remainder payable at maturity. Lamar borrowed the full amount of the Term B loan on March 16, 2018. The proceeds from the Term B loan, together with available cash on hand were used to redeem in full Lamar Media’s 5 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2022 (the “5 7/8% Notes”).

Lamar Media’s Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 15, 2017 (as amended by Amendment No. 1, the “senior credit facility”) consists of (i) a $450,000 senior secured revolving credit facility which will mature on May 15, 2022, (ii) a $450,000 Term A loan facility (the “Term A loans” and together with the Term B loans, the “Term loans”) which will mature on May 15, 2022, (iii) the Term B loans and (iv) an incremental facility pursuant to which Lamar Media may incur additional term loan tranches or increase its revolving credit facility subject to pro forma compliance with the secured debt ratio financial maintenance covenant.

Under the senior credit facility Lamar Media borrowed all $450,000 in Term A loans on May 15, 2017. The net proceeds, together with borrowing under the revolving portion of senior credit facility and cash on hand, were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the existing senior credit facility, and all revolving commitments under that facility were terminated.

The Term A loans mature on May 15, 2022 and the Term B loans mature on March 16, 2025. The remaining quarterly installments are scheduled to be paid on each December 31, March 31, June 30 and September 30 as follows:

Principal Payment Date	Term A		Term B
December 31, 2018-June 30, 2019	$	5,625	$	1,500
September 30, 2019-June 30, 2020	$	8,438	$	1,500
September 30, 2020-March 31, 2022	$	16,875	$	1,500
Term A Loan Maturity May 15, 2022	$	253,125	$	—
June 30, 2022-December 31, 2024	$	—	$	1,500
Term B Loan Maturity March 16, 2025	$	—	$	559,500

The Term loans bear interest at rates based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate (“Eurodollar term loans”) or the Adjusted Base Rate (“Base Rate term loans”), at Lamar Media’s option. Eurodollar term loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.75%; (or the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.50% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.25 to 1 for Term A loans only). Base Rate term loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus 0.75% (or the Adjusted Base Rate plus 0.50% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 3.25 to 1 for Term A loans only). The revolving credit facility bears interest at rates based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate (“Eurodollar revolving loans”) or the Adjusted Base Rate (“Base Rate revolving loans”), at Lamar Media’s option. Eurodollar revolving loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 2.25% (or the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 2.00% at any time the Total Debt Ratio is less than or equal to 4.25 to 1; 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 revolving Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus 1.25% (or the Adjusted Base Rate plus 1.0% at any time the total debt ratio is less than or equal to 4.25 to 1, 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 senior credit facility apply to the Term A and B loans and revolving credit facility.

As of September 30, 2018, there was $105,000 outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Availability under the revolving facility is reduced by the amount of any letters of credit outstanding. Lamar Media had $12,953 in letters of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2018 resulting in $332,047 of availability under its revolving facility. Revolving credit loans may be requested under the revolving credit facility at any time prior to its maturity on May 15, 2022.

The terms of Lamar Media’s senior credit facility and the indentures relating to Lamar Media’s outstanding notes restrict, among other things, the ability of Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media to:

•

dispose of assets;

•

incur or repay debt;

•

create liens;

•

make investments; and

•

pay dividends.

The senior credit facility contains provisions that allow Lamar Media to conduct its affairs in a manner that allows Lamar Advertising to qualify and remain qualified as a REIT, including by allowing Lamar Media to make distributions to Lamar Advertising required for the Company to qualify and remain qualified for taxation as a REIT, subject to certain restrictions.

Lamar Media’s ability to make distributions to Lamar Advertising is also restricted under the terms of these agreements. Under Lamar Media’s senior credit facility the Company must maintain a specified senior debt ratio at all times and in addition, must satisfy a total debt ratio in order to incur debt, make distributions or make certain investments.

Lamar Advertising and Lamar Media were in compliance with all of the terms of their indentures and the senior credit facility provisions during the periods presented.
