| Item 1. Security and Issuer. |
| --- |
| This first amended statement on Schedule 13D (the “Amendment”) amends the
statement on Schedule 13D filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2006 (the “Statement”) on behalf of
Draupnir, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Draupnir”), Draupnir
Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary
of Draupnir (“DCL”), The Lifeboat Foundation, an Illinois not-for-profit
corporation (“Lifeboat”), Allen D. Petersen (“Mr. Petersen”), the 2003 Allen D.
Petersen Irrevocable Trust (the “Petersen Trust”), Jeremy W. Hobbs (“Mr.
Hobbs”), William F. Wright (“Mr. Wright”) and Christopher H. Atayan (“Mr.
Atayan”) (each a “Reporting Person” and collectively, the “Reporting
Persons”). The Reporting Persons filed the Statement in order to
form a group, within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) with respect to the securities of
AMCON Distributing Company, a Delaware corporation (“AMCON”) owned by each
Reporting Person. The Statement is incorporated by reference herein. |
| Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. |
| This Amendment is being filed to give notice of the dissolution of a “group” for
the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. As disclosed by the
Statement, as a result of certain provisions set forth in the Stock Purchase
Agreement dated as of March 3, 2006, by and between DCL and AMCON (the
“Agreement”) each of Draupnir, DCL, Lifeboat, Mr. Petersen and the Petersen
Trust (collectively, the “Agreement Reporting Persons”) agreed to cooperate with
one another regarding certain decisions (investment, management or otherwise) in
connection with AMCON. The Agreement Reporting Persons filed a Schedule 13D to
that effect on March 10, 2006. Subsequently, the Agreement Reporting Persons
and Mr. Wright, Mr. Hobbs and Mr. Atayan entered into an informal agreement
whereby they agreed to cooperate with one another regarding certain decisions
relating to the affairs of AMCON. As a result of the informal agreement, they
formed a group within the meaning of 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and filed the
Statement. |
| Subsequent to the filing of the Statement, the Agreement Reporting Persons, Mr.
Wright, Mr. Hobbs and Mr. Atayan determined that they were no longer a group
within the meaning of 13(d) of the Exchange Act. This determination was made
after internal discussions, which resulted in the Agreement Reporting Persons,
Mr. Wright, Mr. Hobbs and Mr. Atayan terminating any and all informal agreements
that existed between them which contemplated that they act together for the
purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of AMCON’s securities. In
light of the dissolution of the group, no further amendments will be filed with
respect to the Statement and the Group formed pursuant to the Statement shall be
deemed terminated. Any further filings relating to the Agreement Reporting
Persons, Mr. Wright, Mr. Hobbs and Mr. Atayan’s ownership of AMCON’s securities
will be filed, if required, on the appropriate schedule, by the appropriate
Reporting Person, in such person’s individual capacity. Nothing herein will be
deemed to prohibit any or all of the Reporting Persons from (i) cooperating in
the future with respect to individual decisions affecting the management of the
Company, provided, that, such |

Page 10 of 13

PAGEBREAK

decisions are based on the individual views and considerations of such Reporting Persons, or (ii) making a subsequent determination to form a “group” at a later time.

Simultaneous with the filing of this Amendment, (i) the Agreement Reporting Persons will file an amendment to the Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on March 10, 2006 and (ii) Mr. Wright will file an amendment to the Schedule 13D he filed with the SEC on July 1, 2004. Mr. Hobbs and Mr. Atayan are the beneficial owners of less than 5% of any class of AMCON’s securities and will no longer be subject to filing obligations pursuant to the Exchange Act effective upon the filing of this Amendment.
