Introductory Note.

This Final Amendment (as defined herein) is filed by BBAC, LLC (“ BBAC ”), Cherokee Advisors, LLC (“ Cherokee ”) and Reid M.

This Final Amendment to Schedule 13D (“ Final Amendment ”) 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 ”).

Also on November 5, 2007, the Issuer requested that the Common Stock no longer be quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market and a Form 15 will be filed with the Commission on behalf of the Issuer to terminate the registration of the Common Stock and the Issuer’s reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of Issuer

Item 5 the Statement is hereby amended by the adding the following at the end of Item 5:

On November 5, 2007, the Issuer filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of Delaware.
