Explanatory Note
Introduction
This Final Amendment to Schedule 13D (Final Amendment to Schedule 13D) amends and restates
Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed on July 26, 2007 (the Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D)
by Millenco LLC, Millennium Management LLC and Israel A. Englander, relating to their beneficial
ownership of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the Common Stock) of American
Community Newspapers Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Issuer).
This Final Amendment to Schedule 13D is being filed to (i) reflect the transfer of 60,400
shares of the Issuers Common Stock, 2,618,800 warrants to purchase the Issuers Common Stock
(Warrants) and 4,000 units (Units) held by Millenco LLC to Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC,
which is wholly-owned by the same entity; and (ii) to reflect that the Warrants included in the
previous beneficial ownership calculations are not currently exercisable under the terms of the
Warrants. As a result of this transfer, Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC is now the beneficial
owner of the above described shares of the Issuers Common Stock.
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
The name of the Issuer is American Community Newspapers Inc. The address of the Issuers
offices is 14875 Landmark Boulevard, Suite 110, Addison, TX 75254. This Final Amendment to
Schedule 13D relates to shares of the Issuers Common Stock. As described in the Introduction,
Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC also holds Warrants to purchase the Issuers Common Stock. Each
Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Issuers Common Stock at a price of $5.00
per share. Although the Issuer completed its acquisition of
American Community Newspapers, LLC on July 2, 2007 (the Acquisition), pursuant to their terms,
the Warrants will become exercisable upon the effective date of a registration statement filed by
the Issuer for the Common Stock underlying the Warrants (the Registration Statement). As of the
date hereof, the Issuer does not have an effective Registration Statement and consequently the
Warrants are not exercisable. Also as described above, Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC holds
Units. Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock and two Warrants.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
(a)-(c), (f) This statement is being filed by Millenco LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (Millenco). Millenco is a broker-dealer and a member of the American Stock Exchange and
the NASDAQ.
Millennium Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Millennium Management), is
the manager of Millenco and consequently may be deemed to have voting control and investment
discretion over securities owned by Millenco. Israel A. Englander (Mr. Englander) is the
managing member of Millennium Management. As a result, Mr. Englander may be deemed to be the
beneficial owner of any shares deemed to be beneficially owned by Millennium Management. The
foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by Millennium Management or Mr.
Englander as to beneficial ownership of the shares owned by Millenco. Millenco, Millennium
Management and Mr. Englander will be collectively referred to as the reporting persons (Reporting
Persons) in this Final Amendment to Schedule 13D.
The business address for Millenco, Millennium Management and Mr. Englander is c/o Millennium
Management LLC, 666 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10103. Mr. Englander is a United States
citizen.
(d) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).
(e) On December 1, 2005, Millennium Management and Mr. Englander, together with Millennium
Partners, L.P. (Millennium Partners) and certain related persons and entities, entered into
settlements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Attorney General of the
State of New York (the NYAG) relating to allegations that Millennium Partners had engaged in a
pattern of deceptive market timing of mutual fund shares in years prior to 2004 and, in the case
of the settlement with the NYAG only, had failed to take adequate steps to prevent a trader from
engaging in mutual fund late trading in violation of firm policy. The parties neither admitted
nor denied the allegations or findings (except as to jurisdiction) but consented to the entry of
findings. The SEC proceedings are In the Matter of Millennium Partners, L.P., et al. Securities Act
Release No. 8639 (December 1, 2005), available at www.sec.gov. Contemporaneously, the NYAG issued
an Assurance of Discontinuance relating to the claims and findings of that office.
Neither the Reporting Persons nor any other party admitted or denied any of the allegations or
findings in these matters. The remedies included disgorgement by the entities of approximately $148
million of mutual fund trading profits, civil penalties aggregating approximately $32.15 million
(with approximately $30 million being paid by Mr. Englander), an administrative order to cease and
desist from violations of the antifraud provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities
Exchange Act of
1934 (the Exchange Act), and prophylactic relief.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
The amount of funds used to
purchase the beneficially owned shares of Common Stock now held by
Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC was approximately $363,757, calculated on an average cost basis (excluding brokerage commissions), by
account. Millenco effects purchases of securities primarily through margin
accounts maintained for it with prime brokers, which may extend margin credit to Millenco as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to
applicable margin regulations, stock exchange rules and the prime brokers credit policies.
In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for
the repayment of debit balances in the accounts.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

CUSIP No. 02520T103

SCHEDULE 13D/A
|

Page 7 of 11 |
The Reporting Persons are engaged in the investment business. In pursuing this business, the
Reporting Persons analyze the operations, capital structure and markets of companies, including the
Issuer, on a continuous basis through analysis of documentation and discussions with knowledgeable
industry and market observers and with representatives of such companies (often at the invitation
of management). From time to time, one or more of the Reporting Persons may hold discussions with
third parties or with management of such companies in which the Reporting Persons may suggest or
take a position with respect to potential changes in the operations, management or capital
structure of such companies as a means of enhancing shareholder value. Such suggestions or
positions may relate to one or more of the transactions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of
Item 4 of Schedule 13D of the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, such matters as
disposing of or selling all or a portion of the company or acquiring another company or business,
changing operating or marketing strategies, adopting or not adopting certain types of anti-takeover
measures and restructuring the Issuers capitalization or dividend policy.
The Reporting Persons employ the services of a number of portfolio managers, each of whom
independently employs a separate and distinct trading strategy. A portion of the securities of the
Issuer held by the Reporting Persons are held in accounts of the Reporting Persons managed by
portfolio managers who engage in event-, risk- or merger-arbitrage or fundamental strategies.
Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals
that relate to or would result in any of the actions required to be described in Item 4 of Schedule
13D. Each of the Reporting Persons may, at any time, review or reconsider its position with respect
to the Issuer and formulate plans or proposals with respect to any of such matters, but has no
present intention of doing so.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) As of the
date hereof, Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC was the beneficial owner of
64,400 shares of Common Stock.
Millennium Management LLC is the general partner of Integrated Holdings Group LP, a Delaware
limited partnership (Integrated Holding Group), which is the managing member and 100% shareholder
of Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC, and consequently may be deemed to have shared voting
control and investment discretion over securities owned by Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC.
Mr. Englander, as the managing member of Millennium Management, may also be deemed to
beneficially own the above-described shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Integrated Core
Strategies (US) LLC.
The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by Millennium
Management or Mr. Englander as to beneficial ownership of the shares held by Integrated Core
Strategies (US) LLC.
As described in the Introduction, Integrated Core Strategies (US) LLC holds 64,400 shares of
Common Stock (consisting of (i) 60,400 shares of the Issuers Common Stock and (ii) 4,000 Units).
Accordingly, as of the date of this filing, Mr. Englander and Millennium Management may be deemed
to be beneficial owners of 64,400 shares of Common Stock which represents approximately 0.4% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock. The calculation of the foregoing percentage is on the basis of
14,623,445 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 30, 2008, as per the Issuers Form 10-Q,
dated April 30, 2008.
(b) Integrated
Core Strategies (US) LLC may be deemed to hold shared power to vote
and to dispose of the 64,400 shares of
Common Stock described in (a) above. Mr. Englander and Millennium Management may be deemed to hold
shared power to vote and to dispose of the 64,400 shares of Common Stock described in (a) above.
The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by Mr. Englander or
Millennium Management as to beneficial ownership of the shares held by Millenco and Integrated Core
Strategies (US) LLC.
(c) Transactions in the Issuers Common Stock and Warrants by the Reporting Persons during the
past 60 days: No transactions in the Issuers Common Stock and Warrants by the Reporting Persons
were effected in the past 60 days.
(d) No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive, or the
power to direct the receipt of, dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common
Stock reported in this Statement.

(e) The Reporting Persons have never been the beneficial owners of five percent of the
Issuers Common Stock. Following the Acquisition, the Reporting Persons erroneously reported the
Warrants as exercisable, although no Registration Statement had been filed, as required to exercise
the Warrants pursuant to their terms. Since the Warrants are not currently exercisable until an
effective Registration Statement covering the securities underlying the Warrants is filed with the
SEC, and no such Registration Statement has yet been filed, the Reporting Persons are not, and
never have been, the beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Issuers Common Stock.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
In connection with
arrangements with Millencos prime brokers, such prime
brokers are permitted to lend securities in Millencos accounts to the extent
permitted by debit balances in such account. Millenco generally will not have any
knowledge of the specific loans made by such prime brokers. In addition, in the ordinary course of
business, Millenco (or its prime brokers), may borrow securities to satisfy
delivery obligations arising from short sales and may lend securities to third parties and such
loans generally may be recalled upon demand.
There are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships among the
Reporting Persons, or between the Reporting Persons and any other person, with respect to the
securities of the Issuer.
