Introductory Note.

This Amendment No. 5 (as defined herein) is filed by BBAC, LLC (“ BBAC ”), Cherokee Advisors, LLC (“ Cherokee ”) and Reid M. Zeising (collectively, the “ Reporting Persons ”) to update the Amended Statement (as defined herein). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Amended Statement.

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

Item 1 of the Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

This Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D (“ Amendment No. 5 ”) relates to shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), of Back Yard Burgers, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Issuer ”). This Amendment No. 5 amends the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on June 5, 2006, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on August 24, 2006, Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on September 5, 2006, Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on December 7, 2006, and Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on June 12, 2007 (the “ Amended Statement ” and, collectively with this Amendment No. 5, the “ Statement ”). The address of the Issuer’s principal executive office is 1657 N. Shelby Oaks Drive, Suite 105, Memphis, Tennessee 38134.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Statement is hereby amended by adding the following at the end of Item 3:

Effective as of September 30, 2007, BBAC entered into amendments to the commitment letters with Regions Bank (“Regions”) and Harbert Mezzanine Partners II, L.P. (“Harbert”) that extend the expiration date of each commitment letter until October 31, 2007 and with respect to the Regions commitment letter modifies the commitment letter with respect to the matters described below.

On August 14, 2007, the Issuer reported that a putative class action complaint captioned Plank v. Back Yard Burgers, Inc., et al., Civil Action File No. 07-2499, had been served on the Issuer and other unnamed defendants that alleged violations of the federal Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act and the Tennessee Consumer Protection Act (the “Lawsuit”). The Lawsuit was settled by the Issuer with the plaintiff on an individual basis and dismissed on September 14, 2007. The parties did not request nor did the court make any ruling with respect to the certification of any putative class as alleged in the complaint.

The Reporting Persons requested Regions and Harbert to extend the expiration dates of their respective commitment letters so that the Reporting Persons, Regions and Harbert would have additional time to investigate and evaluate the facts surrounding the allegations made in the Lawsuit and their impact on the conditions in the commitment letters and the Merger Agreement. The Reporting Persons have requested and received certain information from the Issuer and the Issuer is in the process of producing additional information or obtaining it from third parties.


The amendments to the commitment letters are attached as Exhibit P and Exhibit Q and are incorporated by reference in their entirety into this Item 3.

 

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 of the Statement is hereby amended by deleting in its entirety the last paragraph of Item 6 and replacing it with the following:

The information set forth in Items 3, 4 and 5, as amended from time to time, is incorporated herein by reference. Other than as described elsewhere in this Statement and as previously reported, the Reporting Persons have no understandings, arrangements, relationships or contracts relating to the Issuer’s Common Stock which are required to be described hereunder.

 

Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

Item 7 of the Statement is hereby amended by adding the following exhibits:

 

Exhibit P: Amendment to Regions Bank Commitment Letter

 

Exhibit Q: Amendment to Harbert Mezzanine Partners II, L.P. Commitment Letter
