                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

         On March 25, 1998, Minnesota Logos, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Lamar Advertising Company ("LAC"), acquired the 5% interest in Minnesota Logos,
A Partnership (the "Minnesota Partnership") that it did not previously own.
Accordingly, the Minnesota Partnership is no longer subject to the period
reporting requirements of Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, because (i) LAC is a holding company with no operations
independent of its subsidiaries, (ii) the Minnesota Partnership and each of the
other guarantors of LAC's 9 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 and 8 5/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007 is a direct or indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of LAC, (iii) the guarantees by the Minnesota Partnership and each
of the other guarantors are full and unconditional, and (iv) the one indirect
subsidiary of LAC that is not a guarantor is inconsequential to the
consolidated group.
