ITEM 8.01.		OTHER EVENTS

On August 26, 2010, the Board of Directors of Unifi, Inc. (the “Registrant”) approved a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of the Registrant’s common stock, subject to shareholder approval. In addition, the Registrant issued a press release announcing that it will seek shareholder approval of the reverse stock split transaction, which press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Although the Registrant plans to seek shareholder approval of the reverse stock split, there can be no assurances that it will be consummated or that it will achieve its intended effects. Also, the Registrant reserves the right, in its discretion, to abandon the reverse stock split at any time prior to filing with the New York Secretary of State of the applicable amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

Important Information

In connection with the reverse stock split, the Registrant will file a proxy statement and other materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Before making any voting or investment decision, investors are urged to read the proxy statement and these materials when they become available because they will contain important information. The Registrant and its officers and directors may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies with respect to the proposed reverse stock split. Information regarding such individuals is included in the Registrant’s proxy statements and Annual Reports on Form 10-K previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and will be included in the proxy statement relating to the proposed reversed stock split when it becomes available. Investors may obtain the Registrant’s proxy statement, when it becomes available, any amendments or supplements to the proxy statement and other relevant documents free of charge at www.sec.gov. Investors may also obtain a free copy of the Registrant’s proxy statement, when it becomes available, any amendments and supplements to the proxy statement and other relevant documents by writing to Unifi, Inc. at 7201 West Friendly Avenue, Greensboro, NC 27410, Attn: Charles F.
