Subsequent to the transaction.
5. Credit Agreement
In July, 1998, the Company entered into a new Bank Credit Agreement (the "New
Bank Credit Agreement") which consists of a committed $250,000 revolving credit
facility (the "New Revolving Credit Facility"), a $150,000 term facility (the
"Term Facility") and a $100,000 incremental facility funded at the discretion of
the lenders. As of September 30, 1998, the Company had borrowings under the New
Bank Credit Agreement of $88 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. The
New Bank Credit Agreement replaced the Company's previous Bank Credit Facility.
The revolving credit loans and term loans begin amortizing in March 2000 and

requested under the Term Facility at any time prior to June 30, 1999, and
revolving credit loans may be requested under the New Revolving Credit Facility
at any time prior to maturity. The loans bear interest, at the Company's option,
at the LIBOR Rate or Chase Prime Rate plus applicable margins, such margins

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has historically satisfied its working capital requirements with
cash from operations and revolving credit borrowings. Its acquisitions have been
financed primarily with borrowed funds.
In June, 1998,During the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company completed a public offeringfinanced its
acquisition activity of 6,375,000 shares of
Class A Common Stock at $29.00 per share. Netapproximately $75.6 million with remaining proceeds tofrom
the December, 1998 equity offering. At March 31, 1999, following these
acquisitions, the Company after
underwriting discounts from the equity offering were $177.5 million. These
proceeds were used to pay down outstanding bank debt of approximately $173.0had $250 million with the remainder used for operations.
In July, 1998, the Company entered into a new Bank Credit Agreement (the "New
Bank Credit Agreement") in replacement of its previous Agreement. The New Bank
Credit Agreement consists of a committed $250,000 revolving credit facility (the
"New Revolving Credit Facility"), a $150,000 term facility (the "Term Facility")
and a $100,000 incremental facility funded at the discretion of the lenders. The
revolving credit loans and term loans begin amortizing in March 2000 and

The Company's net cash provided by operating activities increaseddecreased to $55.3$9.4
million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 1998March 31, 1999 due primarily to an increase
in noncash items of $24.3$13.6 million, which is primarilyincludes an increase in depreciation
and amortization of $25.3 million offset by a change in deferred
taxes of $1.3$14.0 million. The increase in noncash items was offset by a
decrease in net earnings of $7.9$6.1 million, a decrease in accrued expenses of $8.6$5.3

Regulation15
Elimination of Tobacco Advertising
POTENTIAL ELIMINATION OR REDUCTION OF TOBACCO ADVERTISING
ManufacturersBy the end of tobacco products, mainly cigarettes, were historically major
usersApril 1999, the Company had removed all of outdoor advertising displays. Beginning in 1992, the leading tobacco
companies substantially reduced their domestic advertising expenditures in
response to societal and governmental pressures and other factors. The Company's
revenues from the tobacco products industry are depicted in the following table.
PERIOD ENDED OUTDOOR ADVERTISING
NET REVENUES
September 30, 1998 8%
December 31, 1997 9%
October 31, 1996 10%
October 31, 1995 9%
October 31, 1994 7%
October 31, 1993 7%
October 31, 1992 12%
As you can see from the table, the percentage of the Company's advertising
revenues that come from the tobacco products industry has decreased over the
last several years. The tobacco industry could further decrease its outdoor
advertising expenditures voluntarily or as a result of governmental regulation.
The Company is not certain what affect any such reduction would have on our
operations.
In June 1997 several of the major tobacco companies in the United States that
had been sued by numerous state attorneys general reached agreement on a
proposed settlement. The terms of this proposed settlement included a ban on all outdoor advertising
of tobacco products commencing nine months after
finalizationin connection with settlements the states had reached with
the U.S. tobacco companies. Because of the settlement. The settlement, however, was subject to numerous
conditions, most importantly the enactment of legislation by the federal
government. The settlement collapsed in June 1998 after Congress failed to enact
the required legislation. The bill was resubmitted to the Senate Commerce
Committee, but further action is uncertain.
In October 1998, the tobacco companies and attorneys general of 38 states began
discussing a new national tobacco settlement. Under the terms of the proposed
plan, tobacco companies would discontinue all advertising on billboards. At this
time the timing and terms of any definitive settlement are uncertain. If the
tobacco industry eliminates or reduces billboard advertising,these settlements, the Company's outdoor advertisingtobacco
revenues could decrease immediately andas a percentage of consolidated net revenue have declined from 7% for
the Company's12 months ended December 31, 1998 to 5% for the three months ended March 31,
1999. When displays formerly occupied by tobacco advertisers have become
available inventory could increase. An increase in available inventory could
causethe recent past, the Company to reduce our rates or limit the Company's ability to raise
rates for some period. If a new tobacco settlement were finalized according to
the proposed terms and if the Company was unable to replace revenues from
tobacco advertising, the proposed settlement would have an adverse effect on the
-14-

Company's results of operations. While the Company believes that it would behas been able to replace a substantial portionattract substitute
advertising for the unoccupied space on comparable or more favorable terms.
While both of the tobacco advertising revenues that
would be eliminated,these trends are positive, the Company cannot guarantee that it
will be able to do soattract substitute advertising to occupy the displays which will
become unoccupied, or do so at comparable advertising rates.
The states of Florida, Mississippi, Texas and Minnesota have reached separate
settlements of litigation with the tobacco industry. These settlements were not
conditioned on federal government approval. The Florida and Mississippi
settlements provided for the elimination of all outdoor advertising of tobacco
products by February 1998 and the Texas settlement requires removal by June
1998. The Company removed all of its tobacco billboards and advertising in
Florida, Mississippi and Texas in compliance with those settlement deadlines.
The Minnesota settlement requires the elimination of all outdoor advertising of
tobacco products by November 1998. The following table sets forth information
about the Company's advertising markets in Florida, Mississippi and Texas at
December 31, 1997.

Before the Company's acquisition of Outdoor Communications, Inc. on October 1,
1998,that substitute advertisers will pay rates as favorable to
the Company did not have any outdoor advertising displays foras those paid by tobacco products in Minnesota. By acquiring Outdoor Communications, Inc. the Company
acquired 1,329 outdoor advertising displays, some of which were used for
advertising tobacco products. However, we removed all of our outdoor advertising
displays for tobacco products in Minnesota before the settlement deadline of
November 1998.
Although the Company has removed all of our tobacco advertising in states where
settlements are in place, the size and scope of the Minnesota settlement, which
includes the ban on all outdoor tobacco advertising, may foreshadow similar
settlements of tobacco-related litigation in other states, which may adversely
affect the Company's outdoor advertising revenues.
New Accounting Pronouncements
The FASB has issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise
and Related Information", which established a new accounting principle for
reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements
and interim financial reports. It also established standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers.
SFAS No. 131 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
The Company is currently evaluating the applicability of this standard. However,
the Company does not expect a material impact on disclosures in the Company's
financial statements.
-15-

The AICPA has issued SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities",
which requires costs of start-up activities and organization costs to be
expensed as incurred. The statement is effective for financial statements for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. At September 30, 1998, the
Company estimates that $1.24 million of capitalized costs are included in
intangible assets on the Company's balance sheet.advertisers.
Impact of Year 2000
The year 2000 issue is the result of the development of computer programs and
systems using two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year.
Computer programs and equipment with time-sensitive software may recognize the
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in
a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions to business operations.
The Company has conducted an assessment of its software and related systems and
believes they are year 2000 compliant. The Company's year 2000 effort also
included communication with all significant third party vendors and customers to
determine the extent to which the Company's systems are vulnerable to those
parties' failure to reach year 2000 compliance. There can be no guarantee that
the Company's third party vendors or customers will be year 2000 compliant on a
timely basis and that failure to achieve compliance would not have a material
adverse impact on the Company's business operations.
The Company believes that it is difficult to fully assess the risks of the year
2000 problem due to numerous uncertainties surrounding the issue. Management
believes that primary risks are external to the Company and relate to the year
2000 readiness of its third party business partners.
Accordingly, the Company plans to devoteis devoting the resources it concludes are appropriate
to address all significant year 2000 issues in a timely manner.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
NotThe Company is exposed to interest rate risk in connection with variable rate
debt instruments issued by the Company. The Company does not enter into market
risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes. The information below
summarizes the Company's interest rate risk associated with its principal
variable rate debt instruments outstanding at March 31, 1999.
Loans under the Company's New Bank Credit Agreement bear interest at variable
rates equal to the Chase Prime Rate or LIBOR plus the applicable margin. Because
the Chase Prime Rate or LIBOR may increase or decrease at any time, the Company
is exposed to market risk as a result of the impact that changes in these base
rates may have on the interest rate applicable to borrowings under the New Bank
Credit Agreement. Increases in the interest rates applicable to borrowings under
the New Bank Credit Agreement would result in increased interest expense and a
reduction in the Company's net income and after tax cash flow.
At March 31, 1999, there was approximately $250 million of aggregate
indebtedness outstanding under the New Bank Credit Agreement, or approximately
30.2% of the Company's outstanding long-term debt on that date, bearing interest
at variable rates. The aggregate interest expense for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 with respect to borrowings under the Bank Credit Agreement was
$4.5 million, and the weighted average interest rate applicable to borrowings
under these credit facilities during the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
7.1%. Assuming that the weighted average interest rate was 200-basis points
higher (that is 9.1% rather than 7.1%), then the Company's 1999 interest expense
would have been approximately $1.2 million higher resulting in a $.7 million
decrease in the Company's three months ended March 31, 1999 net income and after
tax cash flow.
The Company attempts to mitigate the interest rate risk resulting from its
variable interest rate long-term debt instruments by also issuing fixed rate
long-term debt instruments and maintaining a balance over time between the
amount of the Company's variable rate and fixed rate indebtedness. In addition,
the Company has the capability under the New Bank Credit Agreement to fix the
interest rates applicable to its borrowings at an amount equal to LIBOR plus the
applicable margin for periods of up to twelve months, which would allow the
Company to mitigate the impact of short-term fluctuations in market interest
rates. In the event of an increase in interest rates, the Company may take
further actions to mitigate its exposure. The Company cannot guarantee, however,
that the actions that it may take to mitigate this risk will be feasible or
that, if these actions are taken, that they will be effective.
