+This doesn't look like a bug rather a check provided by mbas compiler.
+
+NotOveridable will work if implemented it in following fashion
+
+Class B
+    Public Overridable Sub F1()
+    End Sub
+End Class
+
+Class D
+    Inherits B
+
+    Public NotOverridable Overrides Sub F1()
+    End Sub
+End Class
+
+If a class is derived from another which contains a Overridable sub 
+or function then that particular sub/function can be declared 
+NotOverridable to prevent Overriding in the next level.
+
+By default every public function/sub is NotOverridable hence the 
+compiler doesn’t entertain specifying the same modifier explicitly 
+and returns the exception what you are getting.
