</DIV>


<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No.
33-67198), pertaining to the registration by Back Yard Burgers, Inc. (the &#147;Registrant&#148;) of 46,257
shares of common stock issuable under the Registrant&#146;s Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On November&nbsp;5, 2007, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the &#147;Merger Agreement&#148;)
among the Registrant, BBAC, LLC (&#147;Parent&#148;) and BBAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (&#147;Acquisition Co&#148;), Acquisition Co merged with and into the
Registrant, with the Registrant continuing as the surviving corporation (the &#147;Merger&#148;). As a result
of the Merger, the Registrant became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. As provided in the Merger
Agreement, each outstanding share of common stock and preferred stock of the Registrant (other than
shares owned by Parent or Acquisition Co, held in treasury of the Registrant, or shares held by a
holder who has validly demanded appraisal rights under Delaware law) was automatically converted
into the right to receive $6.50 in cash, without interest.
</DIV>

<DIV align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to
remove by means of a post-effective amendment any securities of the Registrant&#146;s which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby de-registers from registration all
of its securities registered pursuant to this Registration Statement which remained unissued at the
effective time of the Merger.

certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for
filing on Form&nbsp;S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement or amendment thereto to be
signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Memphis, State
