AMENDMENT NO. 5 TO SCHEDULE 13D

This Amendment No. 5, dated October 22, 2009, to Schedule 13D is filed by the Reporting Persons and amends Schedule 13D as previously filed by the Reporting Persons with the Securities and Exchange Commission, relating to the common stock, $.01 par value (the “Shares”) of Western Sizzlin Corporation, a Delaware corporation, as specifically set forth below.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On October 22, 2009, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with The Steak n Shake Company, an Indiana corporation (“SNS”), and Grill Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of SNS (“Merger Sub”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement and subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer being the surviving corporation in the merger (the “Merger”).

The Merger Agreement and related transactions are subject to the approval of the Issuer’s stockholders and certain other customary closing conditions, which are expected to be completed by the end of the fourth quarter of 2009 or the first quarter of 2010.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Lion Fund entered into a voting agreement with SNS (the “Voting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Lion Fund agreed to, among other things, vote all 934,215 shares of the Issuer’s common stock that it beneficially owns or exercises control and voting discretion over (i) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement approval of the Merger or such other alternative structure as may be agreed upon by SNS to effect the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement that is no less favorable to the Lion Fund than the terms of the transactions presently contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (ii) against the consummation of any Superior Proposal (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) or any action, proposal, agreement or transaction that would result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation or warranty of Issuer’s contained in the Merger Agreement, which would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions of the Issuer’s obligations thereunder not being fulfilled or would impede or interfere with the Merger. The Lion Fund also agreed to certain transfer restrictions with respect to the Shares subject to the Voting Agreement and agreed to hold such Shares free and clear of any liens.

The Voting Agreement will terminate and have no further force or effect upon the date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.

This description of the Voting Agreement and the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting Agreement and the Merger Agreement, copies of which have been filed or incorporated by reference.

Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

The Reporting Persons specifically disclaim beneficial ownership in the Shares reported herein except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.
