EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Schedule 13D/A is being filed as an amendment (“Amendment No. 1”) to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on behalf of Hennessy Capital Partners I LLC (“HCPI”), Hennessy Capital LLC (“HCP”) and Daniel J. Hennessy (together with HCPI and HCP, the “Reporting Persons”), with respect to the common stock of Blue Bird Corporation (the “Issuer”) on March 20, 2015 (the “Schedule 13D”), pursuant to Rule 13d-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to amend and supplement certain information set forth below in the items indicated. Only those items that are amended or supplemented are reported herein. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.  

 

The Reporting Persons are filing this Amendment No. 1 to report (i) the distribution of shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock by HCPI on a pro rata basis to its members, including to Mr. Hennessy, and (ii) that the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own more than five percent of the class of Common Stock.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is supplemented and amended to add the following:

 

On April 22, 2015, HCPI made a pro rata distribution (for no consideration) to its members of all of the 1,615,703 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 1,345,231 shares of Common Stock that it owned (the “Distribution”). As a result of the Distribution, Mr. Hennessy received (i) 133,911 shares of Common Stock and (ii) warrants to purchase 47,152 shares of Common Stock.

  

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(a)-(b) The Reporting Persons’ current beneficial ownership in the Issuer and the Common Stock arising from such ownership is set forth on the cover pages to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated by reference herein. The ownership percentages appearing on such cover pages have been calculated based on a total of 20,692,794 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 20, 2015, as disclosed in the Registration Statement on Form S-3, as amended, filed by the Issuer with the SEC on April 23, 2015.

 

(c) Except as set forth herein, there have been no other transactions in the class of securities reported on that were effected within the past sixty days.

 

(d) Not applicable.

 

(e) As a result of the Distribution, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent (5%) of the class of Common Stock on April 22, 2015.
