(the "Common Stock"), of Lamar Advertising Company (the "Company"). Items 1 and
3 remain unchanged. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Initial 13D. The Initial 13D is amended and
supplemented as follows:

executive officers of Clear Channel Communications, Inc. ("Clear Channel") which

state securities laws or finding any violations with respect to such laws.
Each director and officer of Clear Channel identified on Schedule I is a
United States citizen.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 is to be amended as follows:
On August 30, 2000, Clear Channel and AMFM Inc. ("AMFM") consummated the
merger (the "Merger") of CCU Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Clear Channel ("Merger Sub"), with and into AMFM, as
provided by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 2, 1999, by
and among Clear Channel, AMFM and Merger Sub.
In connection with the Merger, Clear Channel and AMFM entered into a
Consent Decree with the United States Department of Justice (the "Consent
Decree"), pursuant to which AMFM agreed to dispose of all of its 26,227,273
shares of Common Stock currently held of record by AMFM Operating Inc. ("AMFM
Operating") by December 31, 2002 (the "Sell Down"). The description of the
Consent Decree contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
Consent Decree, which was filed as Exhibit 99(a) to the Second Amended 13D and
is incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 4.
On October 22, 2001, in connection with the Sell Down, AMFM Operating sold
5,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a price to AMFM Operating of $30.00 per
share. The sales were made pursuant to an underwriting agreement (the
"Underwriting Agreement") and a registration statement on Form S-3 (the
"Registration Statement") filed by the Company in accordance with the Amended
and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in Item 6 below) on
September 8, 2000, and which was declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission on September 21, 2000. The terms of the Underwriting
Agreement are described in greater detail in Item 6 below.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the terms and conditions of
the Consent Decree, the Filing Parties reserve the right to acquire, or cause to
be acquired, additional securities of the Company, to dispose of, or cause to be
disposed, such securities at any time or to formulate other purposes, plans or
proposals regarding the Company or any of its securities, to the extent deemed
advisable in light of general investment and trading policies of the Filing
Parties, market conditions or other factors.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer
Item 5 is to be amended as follows:
(a) and (b) Each of the Filing Parties may be deemed to have beneficially
owned in the aggregate 5,365,073 shares of the Common Stock of the Company by
virtue of AMFM Operating's ownership of such shares. The aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock covered by this Schedule 13D represents approximately
6.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of August 8, 2001 (the most
recent date for which the Company's outstanding share information has been made
available to the Filing Parties).
Based upon the terms of the Company's certificate of incorporation, the
shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding and entitled
to vote on matters submitted to stockholders as a single class (except as
otherwise required by Delaware law), with each share of Class A Common Stock
entitled to one vote and each share of Class B Common Stock entitled to ten
votes. Therefore, each of the Filing Parties may be deemed to have shared voting
power representing approximately 2.16% of the outstanding voting power of the
Company as of August 8, 2001.
Each of the Filing Parties disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares of
Common Stock covered by this Schedule 13D not owned of record by it.
(c) Except as set forth herein, to the knowledge of the Filing Parties with
respect to the other persons named in response to paragraph (a), none of the
persons named in response to paragraph (a) has effected any transactions in
shares of the Common Stock during the past 60 days.
(d) None.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect
to the Securities of the Issuer
Item 6 is to be amended as follows:

Re: Lamar Advertising Company - Public Offering
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned understands that you (the "Underwriter") propose to enter
into an Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Lamar
Advertising Company, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and a selling
shareholder to be named therein (the "Selling Shareholder") providing for the
public offering (the "Public Offering") of Class A Common Stock, par value $.001
per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company. Capitalized terms set forth
herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the
Underwriting Agreement.
In consideration of the Underwriter's agreement to purchase and make the
Public Offering of the Common Stock, and for other good and valuable
consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby
agrees that, without the prior written consent of Goldman, Sachs & Co., the
undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date of the prospectus
relating to the Public Offering (the "Prospectus") and ending 45 days
thereafter, (1) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to
sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract
to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer
or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock of the
Company, or any securities of the Company which are substantially similar to the
Common Stock, including, but not limited to, (x) any securities convertible into
or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or (y) any shares of Common
Stock which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or (2) enter into any swap, option, future, forward or other
agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences
of ownership of the Common Stock or any securities of the Company which are
substantially similar to the Common Stock, including, but not limited to, any
securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock,
whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be
settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or
otherwise. In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written
consent of Goldman, Sachs & Co. it will not, during the aforementioned 45-day
period, make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the
registration of any shares of Common Stock or any securities of the Company
which are substantially similar to the Common Stock, including, but not limited
to, any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common
Stock.
The restrictions in this letter shall not prohibit (a) transactions
relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in open market
transactions after the completion of the Public Offering, (b) bona fide gifts or
distributions (including if the stockholder is a partnership, to its partners)
without consideration to individuals who (i) concurrently deliver to you a
letter substantially in the form of this letter and (ii) as a result of such
transfer or distribution, will not be required to make, or shall not voluntarily
make, a filing under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (other than a filing on Form 5 made after the expiration of the 45-day
period referenced to above), (c) transfers which occur by operation of law, such
as the rules of intestate succession or statutes governing the effects of a
merger, provided the transferee shall be bound by the terms of this letter, or
(d) the exercise of options (including a cashless exercise) or conversion of
convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof, provided that the
shares received upon such conversion or exercise shall be subject to the terms
of this letter.
In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and any duly appointed
transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described
herein are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if
such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Agreement.
The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has
full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Agreement. All authority
