SCHEDULE 13D

CUSIP NO. 812139301 Page 3 of 6
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, par
value of $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") of Sealy Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), which has its principal executive office
at Sealy Drive, One Office Parkway, Trinity, North Carolina 27370. This
Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements, as set forth below, the initial
Schedule 13D, filed January 9, 2012, and the Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D,
filed February 14, 2012, on behalf of BART Partners, LLC, and the Amendment
No. 2 to Schedule 13D, filed March 29, 2012, jointly on behalf of FPR Partners,
LLC and BART Partners, LLC, relating to the Common Stock (collectively, the
"Schedule 13D").

Item 2. Identity and Background
 -----------------------

 This Schedule 13D is being filed on behalf of FPR Partners, LLC, a
limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware
("FPR Partners" or "Reporting Person"). FPR Partners' principal business is
that of investment management. The address of its principal office is 199
Fremont Street, Suite 2500, San Francisco, CA 94105-2261.

 During the last five years, FPR Partners has not (i) been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or
similar misdemeanors) or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial
or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to
such laws.

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

 The source of funds used to purchase the securities of the Issuer
reported herein was the working capital of certain advisory clients of the
Reporting Person. No borrowed funds were used to purchase the Common Stock,
other than any borrowed funds used for working capital purposes in the
ordinary course of business.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
 ----------------------

 The securities of the Issuer as to which this schedule is filed were
acquired for investment purposes, and such purchases have been made in the
ordinary course of business.

 In pursuing such investment purposes, the Reporting Person may further
purchase, hold, vote, trade, dispose or otherwise deal in the Common Stock at
times, and in such manner, as they deem advisable to benefit from changes in
market prices of such Common Stock, changes in the Issuer's operations,
business strategy or prospects, or from sale or merger of the Issuer. To
evaluate such alternatives, the Reporting Person will routinely monitor the
Issuer's operations, prospects, business development, management, competitive
and strategic matters, capital structure, and prevailing market conditions,
as well as alternative investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of
the Reporting Person and other investment considerations. Consistent with
its investment research methods and evaluation criteria, the Reporting Person
may discuss such matters with management or directors of the Issuer,
other shareholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategic
partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of
credit and other investors. Such factors and discussions may materially
affect, and result in, the Reporting Person's modifying their ownership of
Common Stock, exchanging information with the Issuer pursuant to appropriate
confidentiality or similar agreements, proposing changes in the Issuer's
operations, governance or capitalization, or in proposing one or more of the
other actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule
13D.

 The Reporting Person reserves the right to formulate other plans and/or
make other proposals, and take such actions with respect to their investment
in the Issuer, including any or all of the actions set forth in paragraphs
(a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, or acquire additional Common Stock
or dispose of all the Common Stock owned by them, in the public market or
privately negotiated transactions. The Reporting Person may at any time
reconsider and change their plans or proposals relating to the foregoing.

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

 The Reporting Person holds 974,193 of Issuer's 8% Senior Secured Third
Lien Convertible Notes due 2016 (the "Notes"). The Notes are convertible into
29,631,369 shares of Issuer's Common Stock. However, based on the
Prospectus Supplement of Sealy Corporation dated April 9, 2009 (the
"Prospectus"), the Reporting Person is required to provide 61 days' notice
to the Issuer in order to receive shares of Issuer's Common Stock upon
conversion of the Notes. According to the Prospectus, no holder of the Notes
(other than Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P., its affiliates and certain
members of management) will be permitted to receive shares upon conversion of
the Notes to the extent such conversion will result in such holder becoming a
"beneficial owner" under the securities laws by owning 5% or more of the
shares of Issuer's Common Stock. In addition, no holder of more than 5% of
Issuer's Common Stock at May 27, 2009 (other than Kohlberg Kravis Roberts
& Co. L.P., its affiliates and certain members of management) may receive
shares upon conversion of the Notes to the extent such conversion will
result in such holder becoming a "beneficial owner," directly or indirectly,
of more than an additional 1% of the shares of Common Stock upon conversion
of the Notes. These limitations on beneficial ownership shall be terminated
(i) upon 61 days' notice to the Issuer by any holder of Notes, solely with
respect to the Notes beneficially owned by such holder, (ii) immediately upon
delivery by the Issuer of notice of its election to terminate conversion
rights to the extent permitted by the indenture governing the Notes,
(iii) immediately upon delivery by the Issuer of notice of a fundamental
change or (iv) on June 15, 2016.

 Except as described above, there are no contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the Reporting
Person or between such persons and any other person with respect to any
securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to the transfer or
voting of any securities of the Issuer, finder's fees, joint ventures,
loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, divisions
of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

Item 7. Material to Be Filed as Exhibits

 Not Applicable.
