This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to The Pantry, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), on December 20, 1999 (the “Initial Filing”), Amendment No. 1 with respect thereto, as filed with the Commission on April 7, 2000, Amendment No. 2 with respect thereto, as filed with the Commission on December 4, 2002 and Amendment No. 3 with respect thereto, as filed with the Commission on December 10, 2003 (the Initial Filing, as so amended, the “Schedule 13D”). All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Only those items that are amended or supplemented are reported herein. Except as amended and supplemented herein, the Schedule 13D, including the definitions of terms not otherwise defined herein, remains in full force and effect.

Item 2. Identity and Background

No material change has occurred in the facts set forth in the response to this item of the Schedule 13D.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

N/A

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented by adding the following paragraphs:

On January 22, 2004, a Purchase Agreement (“Underwriting Agreement”) was entered into among the Issuer, Merrill Lynch & Co., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, each of the other underwriters named on Schedule A thereto (together, the “Underwriters”) and FSEP III, FSEP IV, FS International and the other selling stockholders listed on Schedule B thereto (the “Selling Stockholders”), pursuant to which the Underwriters agreed to purchase from the Selling Stockholders 5,000,000 shares of Issuer Common Stock (the “Offered Securities”) in an underwritten public offering pursuant to the Registration Statement (the “Initial Sale”). Included in the Offered Securities are 3,241,784 shares of Issuer Common Stock to be sold by FSEP III, 1,595,770 shares of Issuer Common Stock to be sold by FSEP IV and 130,470 shares of Issuer Common Stock to be sold by FSEP International to the Underwriters at a per share price of $19.00. The Underwriters resold the Offered Securities to the public at a per share price of $20.00. The transaction is anticipated to close on January 28, 2004.

Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement the Selling Stockholders also granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase, in whole or in part, an additional 750,000 shares of Issuer Common Stock (the “Over-Allotment Option”) for the purpose of covering any over-allotments, which the Underwriters exercised as to all 750,000 shares of Issuer Common Stock (the “Over-Allotment Securities”) on January 23, 2004 (collectively with the Initial Sale, the “Securities Sale”). Included in the Over-Allotment Securities are 470,474

shares of Issuer Common Stock to be sold by FSEP III, 231,591 shares of Issuer Common Stock to be sold by FSEP IV and 18,935 shares of Issuer Common Stock to be sold by FSEP International to the Underwriters at a per share price of $19.00.

Immediately following the consummation of the Securities Sale (giving effect to the exercise of the entire Over-Allotment Option by the Underwriters), the Filing Persons may, in the aggregate, be deemed to beneficially own 7,734,369 shares of Issuer Common Stock which includes 5,046,906 shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP III, 2,484,343 shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP IV and 203,120 shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP International, which in the aggregate represent approximately 39.2% of the outstanding Issuer Common Stock as of January 22, 2004.

In addition, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement FSEP III, FSEP IV and FS International have entered into customary lock-up agreements pursuant to which FSEP III, FSEP IV and FS International have agreed that for a period of 90 days from January 22, 2004 they will not directly or indirectly, offer, pledge, sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Issuer Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for Issuer Common Stock.

The Securities Sale is more particularly described in, and the foregoing description is subject to, the actual terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement which is filed in its entirety as an exhibit to this Amendment.

Item 5. Interest in the Securities of Issuer

Items 5(a)-(b) are hereby amended in their entirety as follows:

(a)-(b) The percentages of outstanding Issuer Common Stock reported in this Item 5(a) are based on the assumption that there are 19,743,615 shares of Issuer Common Stock outstanding, as reported by the Issuer in the prospectus of the Issuer dated January 22, 2004 and filed with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 of the Securities Act of 1933.

Assuming the closing of the Securities Sale on January 28, 2004, as of such date, the Filing Persons may, in the aggregate, be deemed to beneficially own 7,734,369 shares of Issuer Common Stock, which includes 5,046,906 shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP III, 2,484,343 shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP IV and 203,120 shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP International, which in the aggregate represent approximately 39.2% of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock. FSEP III, Capital Partners and Holdings disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP International and FSEP IV. FSEP International, FS&Co. International and International Holdings disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP III and FSEP IV. FSEP IV and Capital Partners LLC disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of Issuer Common Stock held by FSEP International and FSEP III.

The responses of the Filing Persons to Items (7) through (11) of the portions of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D which relate to the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned are herein incorporated by reference.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Other than as previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D or in Item 4 of this Amendment, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between the Filing Persons with respect to the securities of the Issuer.

Item 7. Material to Be Filed as Exhibits

Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented by adding the following paragraphs:

Exhibit 6. Form of Purchase Agreement by and among the Issuer, Merrill Lynch & Co., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, each of the other underwriters named on Schedule A thereto, and FSEP III, FSEP IV, FS International and the other selling stockholders listed on Schedule B thereto, the form of which is incorporated by reference from Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement of the Issuer on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-111035) filed with the Commission on January 7, 2004.
