This Amendment No.1 to the joint statement on Schedule 13D with respect to the common stock, par value $0.05 per share, of J. Alexander’s Corporation, a Tennessee corporation, filed by the undersigned on March 23, 2009 (the “Schedule 13D”) amends the Schedule 13D as follows:
1. Item 5(a) of the Schedule 13D shall hereby be amended and restated in full as follows:
“(a) In the aggregate, the Reporting Persons beneficially own, as of May 27, 2009, 500,000 shares of the Common Stock, representing approximately 8.4% of such class of securities. The Fund, the GP, as the sole general partner of the Fund, and each Manager, as a management committee director of the GP, each beneficially owns, as of May 27, 2009, 500,000 shares of the Common Stock, representing approximately 8.4% of such class of securities. These percentages of beneficial ownership are based on a total of 5,946,860 shares of the Common Stock outstanding as of May 22, 2009, which total was calculated by reducing the 6,754,860 shares of Common Stock reported outstanding as of May 12, 2009, in the most recent quarterly report of the Issuer on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2009, by the 808,000 shares of Common Stock repurchased by the Issuer on May 22, 2009, as reported in a current report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer on May 27, 2009.”
2. Item 5(c) of the Schedule 13D shall hereby be amended and restated in full as follows:
“(c) No Reporting Person effected any transaction in shares of the Common Stock from March 23, 2009 (the date of the most recent filing on Schedule 13D by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Common Stock) to May 27, 2009. The Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership percentage of the Common Stock increased on May 22, 2009, solely due to the Issuer’s repurchase on that date of 808,000 shares of Common Stock from persons other than the Reporting Persons, as reported in a current report on Form 8-K filed by the Issuer on May 27, 2009.”
3. Except as expressly modified hereby, all provisions of the Schedule 13D shall continue in full force and effect.
