     This Amendment No. 27 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) relates to shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of AutoZone, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). This Amendment No. 27 amends the Schedule 13D, as previously amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by ESL Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Partners”), ESL Institutional Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Institutional”), ESL Investors, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Investors”), Acres Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Acres”), RBS Investment Management, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“RBSIM”), RBS Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“RBS”), ESL Investments, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Investments”) and Edward S. Lampert, a United States citizen, by furnishing the information set forth below. Partners, Institutional, Investors, Acres, RBSIM, RBS, Investments and Mr. Lampert are collectively defined in this Amendment as the “Filing Persons.” Except as otherwise specified in this Amendment, all previous Items are unchanged. Capitalized terms used herein which are not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D, as previously amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
     The Filing Persons purchased the Shares reported herein as part of their ordinary course investment activities and intend to review on a continuing basis their investment in the Issuer. Depending on their review and evaluation of the business and prospects of the Issuer and the price level of the Shares, or such other factors as they may deem relevant, the Filing Persons may acquire additional Shares; may sell all or any part of their Shares pursuant to Rule 144, in privately negotiated transactions or in sales registered or exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); may distribute Shares to various of their partners or may engage in any combination of the foregoing. Subject to applicable law, the Filing Persons may enter into derivative transactions, hedging transactions or alternative structures with respect to the Shares. Any open market or privately negotiated purchases, sales, distributions or other transactions may be made at any time without additional prior notice. Any alternative that the Filing Persons may pursue will depend upon a variety of factors, including without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices of the Shares, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer and general economic, financial market and industry conditions, other investment and business opportunities available to the Filing Persons, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors.
     From June 19, 2009 through June 23, 2009, the Filing Persons sold an aggregate of 454,153 Shares into the open market pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. In addition, on June 23, 2009, Acres distributed an aggregate of 2,578,742 Shares to its partners. Following these transactions, the Filing Persons continue to hold an aggregate of 20,956,103 Shares, which is approximately 39.0% of the Shares outstanding as of June 15, 2009, as disclosed in the Issuer’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 18, 2009.
     William C. Crowley, who is the President and Chief Operating Officer of Investments, is a Director of the Issuer. The Filing Persons currently intend to remain as significant shareholders of the Issuer.
     As a result of the Filing Persons’ ongoing review and evaluation of the business, the Filing Persons may continue to communicate with the Board of Directors, members of management and/or other stockholders from time to time with respect to operational, strategic, financial or governance matters or otherwise work with management and the Board of Directors to create stockholder value and may from time to time suggest potential directors who may or may not be employees of the Filing Persons.

     Other than as described in this Item 4, none of the Filing Persons, nor, to the knowledge of each Filing Person, any individuals listed in response to Item 2 hereof, has any current plans or proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the transactions or other matters specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D; provided that the Filing Persons may, at any time, review or reconsider their position with respect to the Issuer and reserve the right to develop such plans or proposals.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
     (a)-(b) The Filing Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 20,956,103 Shares (approximately 39.0% of the 53,733,813 Shares outstanding as of June 15, 2009, as disclosed in the Issuer’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 18, 2009).
