BusinessUnifi, Inc., a New York corporation formed in 1969 (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Unifi”), is a publicly-traded, multi-nationalmanufacturing company. The Company’s net sales and net income for fiscal year 2011 were $712,812 and $25,089, respectively. The Company processesand sells high-volume commodity products, specialized yarns designed to meet certain customer specifications and premier value-added (“PVA”) yarns withenhanced performance characteristics and higher expected gross margin percentages. The Company sells its polyester and nylon products to other yarnmanufacturers, knitters and weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, hosiery, sock, home furnishings, automotive upholstery, industrial and other end-use markets. The Company’s polyester yarn products include recycled polyester polymer beads (“Chip”), partially oriented yarn (“POY”), textured, solutionand package dyed, twisted and beamed yarns. The Company’s nylon products include textured, solution dyed and covered spandex products. TheCompany maintains one of the industry’s most comprehensive product offerings and has ten manufacturing operations in four countries and participates injoint ventures in Israel and the United States (“U.S.”). In addition, the Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China (“China”)focused on the sale and promotion of the Company’s specialty and PVA products in the Asian textile market, primarily in China as well as into Europe. The Company’s operations are managed in three operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes:Polyester Segment. The polyester segment manufactures recycled Chip, POY, textured, dyed, twisted and beamed yarns with sales to other yarnmanufacturers, knitters and weavers that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, automotive upholstery, hosiery, home furnishings, industrial and otherend-use markets. The polyester segment consists of manufacturing operations in the U.S. and El Salvador. Nylon Segment. The nylon segment manufactures textured nylon and covered spandex products with sales to knitters and weavers that produce fabric for theapparel, hosiery, sock and other end-use markets. The nylon segment consists of manufacturing operations in the U.S. and Colombia. International Segment. The international segment’s products include textured polyester and resale yarns. The international segment sells its yarns to knittersand weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, automotive upholstery, home furnishings, industrial and other end-use markets primarily in the SouthAmerican and Asian regions. The segment includes manufacturing and sales offices in Brazil and a sales office in China. Other information regarding the Company’s reportable segments, including revenues, a measurement of profit or loss, and total assets by segment, is providedin “Footnote 28. Business Segment Information” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Recent Developments and Outlook:Deleveraging Strategy. During fiscal year 2011, the Company used excess operating cash and borrowings under its revolving credit facility to redeem$45,000 of its 11.5% 2014 notes due May 15, 2014 (“2014 notes”). The Company subsequently completed an additional $10,000 redemption of its 2014notes on August 5, 2011 at a redemption price of 102.875% which was financed through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. Interest expensedecreased from $21,889 in fiscal year 2010 to $19,190 in fiscal year 2011 primarily due to a lower average outstanding debt related to the Company’s 2014notes and a decline in the weighted average interest rate from 11.9% in fiscal year 2010 to 11.0% in fiscal year 2011. Going forward, the Company expects tocontinue to utilize its excess operating cash and borrowings under its revolving credit facility to redeem additional amounts of these 2014 notes (the"Deleveraging Strategy"). 3 Investment in Central America. In order to more effectively service the Central American market, the Company began dismantling and relocating idledpolyester texturing equipment from its Yadkinville, North Carolina facility to El Salvador during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 and completed thestartup of the Unifi Central America, Ltda. de C.V. (“UCA”) manufacturing facility in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011. This investment has resultedin a net increase of the Company’s texturing capacity of approximately 15%. The new manufacturing facility in El Salvador has allowed the Company tobecome a local supplier to the U.S.-Dominican Republic-Central American Free Trade Agreement (“CAFTA”) region as global sourcing continues to moveprograms from Asia as the region becomes a competitive alternative to Asian supply chains for certain apparel categories. The Company expects year-over-yearvolume growth from the CAFTA region and is in the process of adding additional texturing capacity to its plant in El Salvador to meet this future demand. Investment in a Recycling Center. On May 4, 2011, the Company officially opened its state-of-the-art REPREVE® (“Repreve”) recycling center inYadkinville, North Carolina increasing its investment in the commercialization of recycled PVA products. This facility is expected to improve the availabilityof recycled raw materials and significantly increase product capabilities and competitiveness in this growing market. The technology installed in thisoperation allows the Company to expand the Repreve brand by increasing the amount and types of recyclable material that can be processed through itsfacility. The Company expects this will also make it an even stronger partner in the development and commercialization of value-added products that meet thesustainability demands of today’s brands and retailers. These investments and activities are critical to achieving the Company’s target of doubling its PVAsales within three years. China Growth. The Company’s Chinese subsidiary increased its net sales by approximately 60% and its sales volumes by approximately 40% in fiscal year2011, as compared to fiscal year 2010, as the Company continued to improve its development, sourcing, resale and servicing of PVA products in the Asianregion. Operational Excellence. Over the past year, the Company expanded its efforts in LEAN manufacturing and statistical process control in all of its operationsaiming for measurable improvements in the cost of operations. These efforts have resulted in demonstrated savings over the last several years as well as greatlyimproved operational flexibility and are expected to result in continued improvement over the next several years. Inflation. For the most recently completed fiscal year and for the foreseeable future, the Company expects rising costs to continue for the consumables that ituses to produce and ship its products, as well as for its utilities and certain employee and medical costs. While the Company attempts to mitigate these risingcosts through its operational efficiencies and increased selling prices, inflation may become a factor that begins to negatively impact the Company’sprofitability. Raw Materials. The feedstock for the Company’s raw materials have seen significant cost increases during the past year which peaked in the fourth quarterof fiscal year 2011. In addition, purified terephthalic acid (“PTA”) pricing, which is a major component of polyester, declined by 10% in Asia in the June2011 quarter compared to the prior quarter, while it increased by 2% in the U.S. While the Company expects the price difference to return to normal whichwould reverse the competitive edge that Asia had in the June 2011 quarter, such dramatic increases and changes in raw material costs could negatively impactthe Company’s operating results if sales prices cannot be adjusted in tandem with such fast or unexpected rises in cost. Brazil. During fiscal year 2011, on a local currency basis, the Company’s Brazilian operation experienced approximately an 8% decline in its gross profitson a per unit basis. Sales volumes have been negatively impacted over the prior fiscal year as market conditions weakened. Gross profit was also negativelyimpacted by a higher average cost of raw materials. The Brazilian operation has also been negatively impacted by increasing levels of imports of yarn, fabricand garments from Asia due in part to the strengthening of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar. Organizational Changes.On February 10, 2011, the Company announced the appointment of Ms. Suzanne M. Present to its Board of Directors (“Board”). On February 25, 2011, theCompany announced that its Board appointed Mr. William L. Jasper as the Company’s Chairman of the Board. Mr. Jasper continues to serve as theCompany’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The announcement followed the death of Mr. Stephen Wener, the Company’s former Chairman of theBoard. Mr. Wener had served as a member of the Board since 2007, was a member of the Company’s Executive Committee and had been the President andCEO of Dillon Yarn Corporation (“Dillon”). The Company also appointed Mr. R. Roger Berrier, Jr. as its President and Chief Operating Officer. Prior to thisannouncement, Mr. Berrier, a member of the Board, served as Executive Vice President of Sales, Marketing, and Asian Operations. On March 9, 2011, theCompany appointed Mr. Mitchel Weinberger to its Board. Mr. Weinberger is the current President and Chief Operating Officer of Dillon. 4 Reverse Stock Split. On October 27, 2010, the shareholders of the Company approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock (the “reversestock split”) at a reverse stock split ratio of 1-for-3. The reverse stock split became effective November 3, 2010 pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to theCompany’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of New York. The Company had 20,060 shares of common stock issuedand outstanding immediately following the completion of the reverse stock split. The Company is authorized in its Restated Certificate of Incorporation to issueup to a total of 500,000 shares of common stock at a $0.10 par value per share which was unchanged by the amendment. Strategy. Although the Company has improved its overall performance there are many challenges still ahead related to competition, inflation, raw materialcosts and weakness of the U.S. and global economies. The Company believes the future success of its current business model will be based on the success ofthe regional free trade markets in which it trades and its ability to: increase its sales of PVA yarns including its Repreve recycled yarns; implement cost savingstrategies; pass on raw material price increases to its customers; and strategically penetrate growth markets, such as China, Central America, and Brazil. TheCompany will continue to focus on sustaining and continuously improving operations and profitability, and increasing its net sales and earnings in globalmarkets. The Company will strive to create additional value through mix enrichment, share gain, process improvement throughout the organization, andexpanding the number of customers and programs using its high value and PVA yarns. Industry Overview:The synthetic filament industry includes petrochemical and raw material producers, polyester and nylon fiber and yarn manufacturers, fabric and finishedproduct producers, consumer brands and retailers. Product pricing, innovation, quality, support, location and trade regulation compliance are competing anddifferentiating attributes among synthetic filament yarn producers within the industry. Both product innovation and product quality are particularlyimportant, as product innovation gives customers competitive advantages and product quality provides for improved manufacturing efficiencies. Since 1980, global demand for polyester has grown steadily, and in calendar year 2003, polyester replaced cotton as the fiber with the largest percentage ofsales worldwide. In calendar year 2010, global polyester consumption accounted for an estimated 48% of global fiber consumption and demand is projected toincrease by approximately 4% to 5% annually through 2015. In calendar year 2010, global nylon consumption accounted for an estimated 5% of global fiberconsumption and demand is projected to increase by approximately 2% annually through 2015. In the U.S., the polyester and nylon fiber sectors togetheraccounted for approximately 57% of the textile consumption during calendar year 2010. According to the National Council of Textile Organizations, the U.S. textile market’s total shipments were $51 billion for the calendar year 2010. The end-usemarkets in which the Company participates for synthetic yarns represent approximately 9% of the total U.S. textile market. The industrial and consumer,floor covering, apparel and hosiery, and furnishings markets account for 42%, 36%, 14% and 8% of total production, respectively. The industry hasincreased productivity by 45% over the last ten years, making textiles one of the top industries among all industrial sectors in productivity increases. During2001 to 2009, the U.S. textile and apparel industry spent approximately $15 billion in capital expenditures, making it one of the most modern and productivetextile sectors in the world. During calendar year 2010, the U.S. textile sector exported more than $15 billion of textile products and employed approximately396,000 people making it one of the largest manufacturing employers in the U.S. Rules of Origin:A significant number of the Company’s customers, particularly in the apparel market, produce finished goods that meet the eligibility requirements for duty-free treatment in the regions covered by the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”), CAFTA, the Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act(“CBTPA”) and the Andean Trade Promotion and Drug Eradication Act (“ATPDEA”). These regional trade preference acts and free trade agreements(“FTAs”) contain rules of origin requirements. In order to be eligible for duty-free treatment, the garment, fabric, yarn (such as POY) and fibers (extruded andspun) are generally required to be fully formed within the respective region. The Company is the largest filament yarn manufacturer and one of the fewproducers of such qualifying yarns for the NAFTA, CAFTA, CBTPA, and ATPDEA regions. Government legislation such as the Berry Amendment and the Kissell Amendment also stipulate rules of origin for certain purchases of U.S. governmentalagencies. The Berry Amendment generally requires the U.S. Department of Defense to purchase textile and apparel articles which are manufactured in theU.S. of yarns and fibers produced in the U.S. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act passed on February 13, 2009 contained a similar provision,referred to as the Kissell Amendment, that generally requires the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Transportation Security Administration and theU.S. Coast Guard to buy textile and apparel products made in the U.S. Further legislation will be required to maintain benefits under the Kissell Amendmentrequirements as the stimulus funds under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act have been exhausted. The Company is the largest and one of the fewproducers of such yarns for Berry and Kissell Amendment compliant programs. 5 Trade Regulation:Over the last decade, international imports of fabric and finished goods in the U.S. have significantly increased. The primary drivers for that growth werelower overseas operating costs, increased overseas sourcing by U.S. retailers, the entry of China into the World Trade Organization and the staged eliminationof all textile and apparel quotas. Although global apparel imports represent a significant percentage of the U.S. market, regional trade agreements, which allowduty free advantages for apparel made from regional fibers, yarns and fabrics, allow the Company opportunities to participate in the growing importmarket. Since the beginning of 2009, the share of trade from these regional trade areas has remained relatively stable and the Company is optimistic about theprospects of future stability and potential growth. NAFTA is a permanent FTA between the U.S., Canada and Mexico that became effective on January 1, 1994. The agreement contains safeguards sought bythe U.S. textile industry, including certain rules of origin for textile and apparel products that must be met for these products to receive duty-free benefits underNAFTA. In general, textile and apparel products must be produced from yarns and fabrics made in the NAFTA region, and all subsequent processing mustoccur in the NAFTA region to receive duty-free treatment. In 2000, the U.S. passed the CBTPA, amended by the Trade Act of 2002, which allows apparel products manufactured in the Caribbean region using yarnsand fabric fully formed in the region to be imported into the U.S. duty and quota free. Implementation of the CAFTA began in 2006, between seven signatory countries: the U.S., the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala,Honduras and Nicaragua. The CAFTA supersedes the CBTPA for the CAFTA signatory countries and provides permanent benefits not only for apparelproduced in the region, but for all textile products that meet the rules of origin. Qualifying textile and apparel products that are produced in any of the sevensignatory countries from fabric, yarn and fibers that are also produced in any of the seven signatory countries may be imported into the U.S. duty free. TwoCAFTA amendments were implemented in August 2008; one includes changes to require that pocketing yarn and fabric used in trousers would have to beproduced in the U.S. or a CAFTA signatory country and a second “cumulation” rule that permits a certain amount of woven apparel produced in a CAFTAsignatory country containing Mexican or Canadian yarns and fabrics to enter the U.S. duty free. An agreement was reached during a CAFTA Ministerial inFebruary, 2011, to fix a number of technical errors in the CAFTA, including one to require that single ply synthetic sewing thread must originate from one ofthe signatory countries. This measure requires further legislative action for full implementation but is expected to have a favorable impact on the Company’stwisted yarn business, as the Company will be the largest and one of a few suppliers of twisted yarns eligible to be used in these sewing thread applications. The ATPDEA passed on August 6, 2002, effectively granting participating Andean countries favorable trade terms similar to those of the other regional tradepreference programs. Under the ATPDEA, apparel manufactured in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru using yarns and fabric produced in the U.S., or inthese four Andean countries, could be imported into the U.S. duty and quota free through December 31, 2006. A temporary extension of the ATPDEA wasgranted to coincide with the ongoing FTA negotiations with several of these Andean nations. The U.S.-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement, signed on April 12,2006, and FTA’s with Colombia and Panama awaiting Congressional action also follow, for the most part, the same yarn forward rules of origin for textile andapparel products as NAFTA. The ATPDEA has expired, but efforts are underway to extend this program until July 2013. Bolivia is no longer eligible underthis agreement. Additionally, the Company operates under FTA’s with Australia, Bahrain, Chile, Israel, Jordan, Morocco, Oman and Singapore. Congressional action ispending on the U.S.-South Korean FTA (“Korea FTA”). The agreement fails to address the potential damage the lack of strict customs enforcement languageand exposure to transshipment could cause for U.S. textile producers. The Obama Administration has begun negotiations for the eight-nation TransPacificPartnership Agreement (“TPP”); however, the first few rounds have focused on the preliminary framework of the agreement and the rules of origin for textilesand apparel have yet to be presented. The Company believes the requirements of the rules of origin and the associated duty-free cost advantages in the regional free trade agreements, such asNAFTA and CAFTA, together with legislation such as the Berry and Kissell Amendments, and the growing need for quick response and inventory turns,ensures that a significant portion of the existing textile industry will remain based in the America regions. The Company expects that the CAFTA andATPDEA regions will continue to increase their percentage of the U.S. market. The Company is the largest of only a few significant producers of eligible yarnunder these trade agreements. As a result, one of the Company’s business strategies is to leverage its eligibility status to increase its share of business withregional fabric producers and domestic producers who ship their products into the region for further duty free processing. Approximately 59% of the Company’s sales are sold as compliant yarn under the terms of FTA’s or Kissell or Berry Amendments. 6 Markets:In calendar year 2000, 56% of the garments purchased in the U.S. were produced in the North and Central American regions. By calendar year 2009,approximately 18% of the garments purchased at U.S. retail were produced in these regions. In the last three years, the garment market share has stabilized inthese regions and began to grow on a unit basis. This recent trend supports the Company’s view that the remaining apparel production in the regions is morespecialized. The apparel market which includes hosiery represents approximately 65% of the Company’s sales. The Company has seen a steady increase ininventory days at both the apparel producer and apparel wholesaler levels, indicating a buildup of inventory in the supply chain. In fact, with the retailerspushing for their suppliers to carry more on hand inventory, inventory days at apparel producers and wholesalers are at the highest levels in the last fouryears, which indicates the potential for a reduction in the Company’s sales volumes for the Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2012. The home furnishing market represents approximately 15% of the Company’s sales. Retail sales of home furnishings have remained relatively flat. Newhome sales continue to be one of the weakest sectors of the economy, and existing home sales remain soft as potential buyers continue to face low appraisalsand tight credit. The Company’s industrial market represents approximately 12% of its sales. This market includes belting, tapes, filtration, ropes, protective fabrics,awnings, etc. Sales in the industrial market remained relatively flat in fiscal year 2011. The automotive upholstery market represents approximately 5% of the Company’s sales and has been less susceptible to import penetration because of theexacting specifications and quality requirements often imposed on manufacturers of automotive upholstery and the just-in-time deliveryrequirements. Effective customer service and prompt response to customer feedback are logistically more difficult for an importer to provide. After a 32%decline in North American automotive production during calendar year 2009 due to the U.S. economic downturn, production grew by 38% in calendar year2010 and an additional 9% during first half of calendar year 2011 compared to the prior year comparable periods. Sales in the automotive market wereslightly up in fiscal year 2011. Competition:The industry in which the Company currently operates is global and highly competitive. On a global basis, the Company competes not only as a yarnproducer but also as part of a regional supply chain. The Company competes with a number of other foreign and domestic producers of polyester and nylonyarns. While competitors have traditionally focused on commodity production, they are now increasingly focused on specialty and value-added productswhere the Company generates higher margins. The Company is also impacted by the importation of textile, apparel and hosiery products which adverselyimpact the demand for polyester and nylon yarns in the Company’s markets. Several foreign competitors in the Company’s supply chain have significantcompetitive advantages, including lower wages, raw material costs, capital costs, and favorable currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar which couldmake the Company’s products, or the related supply chains, less competitive which may cause the Company’s sales and operating results to decline. The major regional competitors for polyester yarns are O’Mara, Inc., and NanYa Plastics Corp. of America (“NanYa”) in the U.S., AKRA, S.A. de C.V. inthe NAFTA region, and C S Central America S.A. de C.V. (“CS Central America”) in the CAFTA region. The Company’s major competitors in Brazil areAvanti Industria Comercio Importacao e Exportacao Ltda., Polyenka Ltda., and other imported yarns and fibers. The major regional competitors for nylonyarns are Sapona Manufacturing Company, Inc., and McMichael Mills, Inc. in the U.S. and Worldtex, Inc in the ATPDEA region. Products:The Company manufactures polyester related products in the U.S., El Salvador and Brazil and nylon yarns in the U.S. and Colombia for a wide range ofend-uses. In addition, the Company purchases fully-drawn yarn and certain drawn textured yarns for resale to its customers. The Company processes andsells POY, as well as high-volume commodity, specialty and PVA yarns, domestically and internationally, with PVA yarns making up approximately 17%,15% and 13% of consolidated sales for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company works closely with its customers to develop yarns using a research and development staff that evaluates trends and uses the latest technology tocreate innovative specialty and PVA yarns reflecting current consumer preferences. The Company also adds value to the supply chain and enhancesconsumer demand for its products through the development and introduction of branded yarns that provide unique ecological, performance, comfort andaesthetic advantages. The Company’s branded portion of its yarn portfolio continues to provide product differentiation to brands, retailers and consumersand includes products such as: ● Repreve, a family of eco-friendly yarns made from recycled materials. Since introduced in August 2006, Repreve has been the Company’smost successful branded product and now includes more than twelve different recycled product options. The product options include filamentpolyester (available as 100% hybrid blend or 100% post-consumer), filament nylon, staple polyester and recycled performance fibers. TheCompany’s recycled performance fibers are manufactured to provide performance and/or functional properties to fabrics and end productssuch as flame retardation, moisture wicking, and performance stretch. Repreve can be found in well-known brands and retailers includingHaggar, Polartec, The North Face, Patagonia, REI, LL Bean, AllSteel, Hon, Steelcase, Perry Ellis, Home Depot, H&M, Sears, Macy’s,Kohl’s, Lee, Hunter Douglas Contract and Greg Norman. 7 ● aio® all-in-one performance yarns combine multiple performance properties into a single yarn. aio® is being used by brands MJ Soffe andNew Balance for several U.S. military apparel products. ● Sorbtek®, a permanent moisture management yarn primarily used in performance base layer applications, compression apparel, athletic bras,sports apparel, socks and other non-apparel related items. Sorbtek® can be found in many well-known apparel brands, including Adidasand Asics, and is also used by MJ Soffe and New Balance for the U.S. military. ● A.M.Y. ®, a yarn with permanent antimicrobial properties for odor control. A.M.Y.® is being used by MJ Soffe and New Balance for theU.S. military. ● Reflexx®, a family of stretch yarns that can be found in a wide array of end-use applications from home furnishings to performance wear andfrom hosiery and socks to work wear and denim. Reflexx® can be found in many products including those used by the U.S. military. For fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company incurred $4,145, $3,578 and $3,382 of expense, respectively, for its product development and researchand development activities. Customers:The Company’s polyester segment has approximately 450 customers, its nylon segment has approximately 200 customers, and its international segment hasapproximately 600 customers in a variety of geographic markets. Yarn is manufactured based upon product specifications and shipped based upon customerorder requirements. Customer payment terms are generally consistent across the segments and are based on prevailing industry practices for the sale of yarndomestically or internationally. The Company’s sales are not materially dependent on a single customer or a small group of customers with no single customer comprising greater than tenpercent of consolidated sales. The Company’s top ten customers accounted for approximately 30% of sales for fiscal year 2011 and 33% of receivables as ofJune 26, 2011. Sales and Marketing:The Company employs a sales force of approximately forty persons operating out of sales offices in the U.S., Brazil, China, El Salvador and Colombia. TheCompany relies on independent sales agents for sales in several other countries. The Company seeks to create strong customer relationships and continuallyseeks ways to build and strengthen those relationships throughout the supply chain. Through frequent communications with customers, partnering withcustomers in product development and engaging key downstream brands and retailers, the Company has created significant pull-through sales and brandrecognition for its products. For example, the Company works with brands and retailers to educate and create demand for its value-added products. TheCompany then works with key fabric mill partners to develop specific fabric for those brands and retailers utilizing its PVA products. Based on the results ofmany commercial and branded programs, this strategy has proven to be successful for the Company. Suppliers and Sourcing:The primary raw material suppliers for the polyester segment are NanYa for Chip and POY. For the international segment, Reliance Industries, Ltd(“Reliance”) is the main supplier for POY. The primary suppliers of nylon POY to the nylon segment are HN Fibers, Ltd., U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”),UNF America, LLC (“UNF America”), Invista S.a.r.l. (“INVISTA”), Universal Premier Fibers, LLC, and Nilit US (“Nilit”) (formerly Nylstar). UNFIndustries and UNF America are 50/50 joint ventures between the Company and Nilit. The Company produces its own and buys certain of its compliant rawmaterial fibers from both the U.S. and Israel. The Company produces a portion of its Chip requirements in its recycling center and purchases the remainderof its requirements from external suppliers for use in its spinning facility. Although the Company does not generally have difficulty in obtaining raw nylonPOY or raw polyester POY, the Company has in the past and may in the future experience interruptions or limitations in the supply of polyester Chip andother raw materials used to manufacture polyester POY, which could materially and adversely affect its operations. 8 The Company also purchases certain nylon and polyester products for resale in the U.S., Brazil, and China. The domestic resale product suppliers includeNanYa, Universal Premier Fibers, LLC, Qingdao Bangyuan Industries Company Ltd, and Nilit. The Company’s Brazilian operation purchases resaleproducts primarily from PT Asia Pacific Fibers TBK, Reliance, Alok Industries, Ltd., Indo-Thai Synthetics Co, Ltd., Jiangsu Shenghong Chemical FibreCo., Ltd, and Wujiang Canhua Import & Export C., Ltd. The Company’s China subsidiary primarily purchases its resale products from an affiliate ofSinopec Yizheng Chemical Fiber Co., Ltd, its former joint venture partner. Manufacturing Processes:The Company uses advanced production processes to manufacture its high-quality yarns cost-effectively. The Company believes that its flexibility andknow-how in producing specialty yarns provides important development and commercialization advantages. The Company produces polyester POY for itscommodity, specialty and PVA yarns in its polyester spinning facility located in Yadkinville, North Carolina. The POY yarns can be sold externally orfurther processed internally. Additional processing of polyester products includes texturing, package dyeing, twisting and beaming. The texturing process,which is common to both polyester and nylon, involves the use of high-speed machines to draw, heat and false-twist the POY to produce yarn having variousphysical characteristics, depending on its ultimate end-use. Texturing gives the yarn greater bulk, strength, stretch, consistent dye-ability and a softer feel,thereby making it suitable for use in knitting and weaving of fabric. Package dyeing allows for matching of customer specific color requirements for yarnssold into the automotive, home furnishings and apparel markets. Twisting incorporates real twist into the filament yarns which can be sold for such uses assewing thread, home furnishings and apparel. Beaming places both textured and covered yarns onto beams to be used by customers in warp knitting andweaving applications. Additional processing of nylon products primarily includes covering which involves the wrapping or air entangling of filament or spunyarn around a core yarn. This process enhances a fabric’s ability to stretch, recover its original shape and resist wrinkles while maintaining a softer feel. In 2011, the Company opened a new recycle Chip facility in Yadkinville, North Carolina increasing its investment in the commercialization of recycled PVAproducts. This facility allows the Company to improve the availability of recycled raw materials and significantly increase product capabilities andcompetitiveness in the growing market for Repreve. Employees:The Company employs approximately 2,700 employees. The number of employees in the polyester segment, nylon segment, international segment and itscorporate office are approximately 1,500, 600, 500 and 100, respectively. While employees of the Company’s foreign operations are generally unionized, noneof the domestic employees are currently covered by collective bargaining agreements. Backlog:The level of unfilled orders is affected by many factors including the timing of orders and the delivery time for the specific products, as well as the customer’sability or inability to cancel the related order. As such, the Company does not consider the amount of unfilled orders, or backlog, to be a meaningful indicatorof expected levels of future sales. Seasonality:Generally, the Company is not significantly impacted by seasonality. Excluding the effects of fiscal years with fifty three operating weeks, the mostsignificant effects on the Company’s results of operations are due to the periods in which either the Company or its customers take planned manufacturingshutdowns during traditional holiday and plant shutdown periods. Inflation:The Company expects rising costs to continue for the consumables that it uses to produce and ship its products, as well as for its utilities and certainemployee and medical costs. While the Company attempts to mitigate these rising costs through its operational efficiencies and/or increased selling prices,inflation may become a factor that begins to negatively impact the Company’s profitability. Intellectual Property:The Company licenses certain trademarks, including Dacron® and Softec™ from INVISTA. The Company has thirty two U.S. registered trademarks. Dueto its current recognition and potential growth opportunities, the Company believes that Repreve is its most significant trademark. Ownership rights intrademarks do not expire if the trademarks are continued in use and properly protected. Environmental Matters:The Company is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations limiting the use, storage, handling, release, discharge anddisposal of a variety of hazardous substances and wastes used in or resulting from its operations and potential remediation obligations thereunder, particularlythe Federal Water Pollution Control Act, the Clean Air Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (including provisions relating to underground storagetanks) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, commonly referred to as “Superfund” or “CERCLA” and variousstate counterparts. The Company believes that it has obtained, and is in compliance in all material respects with, all significant permits required to be issuedby federal, state or local law in connection with the operation of its business. 9 The Company’s operations are also governed by laws and regulations relating to workplace safety and worker health, principally the Occupational Safety andHealth Act and regulations thereunder which, among other things, establish exposure standards regarding hazardous materials and noise standards, andregulate the use of hazardous chemicals in the workplace. The Company believes that the operation of its production facilities and the disposal of waste materials are substantially in compliance with applicable federal,state and local laws and regulations and that there are no material ongoing or anticipated capital expenditures associated with environmental control facilitiesnecessary to remain in compliance with such provisions. The Company incurs normal operating costs associated with the discharge of materials into theenvironment but does not believe that these costs are material or inconsistent with other domestic competitors. On September 30, 2004, the Company completed its acquisition of the polyester filament manufacturing assets located at Kinston, North Carolina (“Kinston”)from INVISTA. The land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99 year ground lease (“Ground Lease”) with E.I. DuPont de Nemours(“DuPont”). Since 1993, DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up the Kinston site under the supervision of the United States Environmental ProtectionAgency (“EPA”) and North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (“DENR”) pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery ActCorrective Action program. The Corrective Action program requires DuPont to identify all potential areas of environmental concern (“AOCs”), assess theextent of containment at the identified AOCs and clean it up to comply with applicable regulatory standards. Effective March 20, 2008, the Company enteredinto a Lease Termination Agreement associated with the conveyance of certain assets at Kinston to DuPont. This agreement terminated the Ground Lease andrelieved the Company of any future responsibility for environmental remediation, other than participation with DuPont, if so called upon, with regard to theCompany’s period of operation of the Kinston site. However, the Company continues to own a satellite service facility acquired in the INVISTA transactionthat has contamination from DuPont’s operations and is monitored by DENR. This site has been remedied by DuPont and DuPont has received authorityfrom DENR to discontinue remediation, other than natural attenuation. DuPont’s duty to monitor and report to DENR with respect to this site will betransferred to the Company in the future, at which time DuPont must pay the Company for seven years of monitoring and reporting costs and the Companywill assume responsibility for any future remediation and monitoring of the site. At this time, the Company has no basis to determine if and when it will haveany responsibility or obligation with respect to the AOCs or the extent of any potential liability for the same. Net Sales and Long-Lived Assets by Geographic Area:Geographic information for net sales for the Company’s fiscal years is based on the operating locations from where the items were produced ordistributed. Geographic information for long-lived assets consists of investments in unconsolidated affiliates, other non-current assets, and property, plantand equipment, net, based on where the asset is located. 2011 2010 2009 Domestic operations: Net sales $502,255 $463,222 $438,429 Total long-lived assets 213,021 204,967 209,117 Brazilian operations: Net sales $144,669 $130,663 $113,761 Total long-lived assets 27,926 22,731 22,454 Other foreign operations: Net sales $65,888 $28,733 $6,225 Total long-lived assets 10,748 9,949 3,110 Export sales from the Company’s U.S. operations to external customers were approximately $82,944 in fiscal year 2011, $94,255 in fiscal year 2010, and$86,399 in fiscal year 2009. Joint Ventures:The Company participates in joint ventures in the U.S. and in Israel. Two of the joint ventures are suppliers to the Company’s nylon segment. One is an on-going investment in a domestic cotton and spun yarn manufacturer. The Company’s newest joint venture is a development stage enterprise that is focused oncultivating and selling bio-mass crops for the bio-fuel and bio-power industries. As of June 26, 2011, the Company had $91,258 invested in theseunconsolidated affiliates. For fiscal year 2011, $24,352 of the Company’s $32,422 income from continuing operations before income taxes was generatedfrom its investments in these four unconsolidated affiliates. Other information regarding the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates is provided withinManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 7 as well as in “Footnote 22. Investments in UnconsolidatedAffiliates and Variable Interest Entities” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 10 Available Information:The Company’s Internet address is: www.unifi.com.

Risk FactorsIn the course of conducting operations, the Company is exposed to a variety of risks that are inherent to its business. The following discusses some of the keyinherent risk factors that could affect the Company’s business and operations, as well as other risk factors which are particularly relevant to theCompany. Other factors besides those discussed below or elsewhere in this report could also adversely affect the Company’s business and operations, andthese risk factors should not be considered a complete list of potential risks that may affect the Company. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it isnot possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on the Company’s business or the extent towhich any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. See “Item7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in thisAnnual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of forward-looking statements about the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company will require a significant amount of cash to service its indebtedness, fund capital expenditures and retire portions of its 2014 notes,and its ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond its control.The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from operations and borrowings under the First Amendment to the Amended andRestated Credit Agreement dated September 9, 2010 (the “First Amended Credit Agreement”). The Company’s ability to make payments on and to refinanceits indebtedness, to fund planned capital expenditures and to redeem portions of the 2014 notes under its Deleveraging Strategy will depend on its ability togenerate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that arebeyond its control. The business may not generate cash flows from operations, and future borrowings may not be available to the Company in an amount sufficient to enable theCompany to pay its indebtedness and to fund its other liquidity needs. If the Company is not able to generate sufficient cash flow or borrowings, theCompany may need to refinance or restructure all or a portion of its indebtedness on or before maturity, reduce or delay capital investments or redemptions ofthe 2014 notes under the Deleveraging Strategy or seek to raise additional capital. The Company may not be able to implement one or more of these alternativeson terms that are acceptable or at all. The terms of its existing or future debt agreements may restrict the Company from adopting any of thesealternatives. The failure to generate sufficient cash flows or to achieve any of these alternatives could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition. In addition, without such refinancing, the Company could be forced to sell assets to make up for any shortfall in its payment obligations under unfavorablecircumstances. The Company’s First Amended Credit Agreement and the indenture with respect to the 2014 notes dated May 26, 2006 between the Companyand its subsidiary guarantors and U.S. Bank, National Association, as Trustee (the “Indenture”) limit its ability to sell assets and also restrict the use ofproceeds from any such sale. Furthermore, the 2014 notes and the First Amended Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of its assets. Therefore,the Company may not be able to sell its assets quickly enough or for sufficient amounts to enable the Company to meet its debt service obligations. The Company’s future operating results, deteriorating conditions in the credit markets, declining credit ratings or abnormally high interest ratesor other adverse debt instrument terms could make it difficult for the Company to refinance its indebtedness on favorable terms or at all when itcomes due.The Company’s ability to refinance its indebtedness on favorable terms or at all will depend on its ability to generate adequate operating results in the future,the prevailing conditions of the credit markets, the Company’s credit agency debt ratings, and interest rate and other debt instrument terms available in thecredit markets at the time the Company refinances its indebtedness. The 2014 notes are due and payable in May 2014. Outstanding amounts under the FirstAmended Credit Agreement are due and payable in September 2015; however, if the 2014 notes have not been paid in full on or before February 15, 2014, thematurity date of the Company’s revolving credit facility will be automatically adjusted to February 15, 2014. If the Company were unable to refinance itsindebtedness on a timely basis, it could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 11 The Company relies on accurate financial reporting information from equity method investees that it does not control. Errors in financialreporting by these equity method investees could be material to the Company and cause it to have to restate past financial statements.The Company has ownership interests in equity method investees that it does not control. The Company relies on accurate financial reporting informationfrom these entities for preparation of its quarterly and annual financial statements. Errors in the financial reporting information received by the Companyfrom any of these equity method investees could be material to the Company and require it to have to restate past financial statements filed with the Securitiesand Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Such restatements, if they occur could have a material adverse effect on the Company or the market price of itssecurities. The Company faces intense competition from a number of domestic and foreign yarn producers and importers of textile and apparel products.The Company’s industry is highly competitive. The Company competes not only against domestic and foreign yarn producers, but also against importers offoreign sourced fabric and apparel into the U.S. and other countries in which the Company does business. The Company anticipates that competitorexpansions or new competition within these regions may lead to reduced industry utilization rates that could result in reduced gross profit margins for theCompany’s products, which may materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, Petrobras Petroleo Brasileiro S.A. (“Petrobras”), a public oil company controlled by the Brazilian government, announced the construction of apolyester manufacturing complex located in the northeast sector of the country. This new investment in polyester capacity is made by Petrobras through itswholly-owned subsidiary, Petrosuape-Companhia Petroquimica de Pernambuco (“Petrosuape”). Petrosuape will produce PTA, polyethylene terephthalate(“PET”) resin, polyester Chip, POY and textured polyester. Construction on various phases of the project has commenced. Once operational, the texturedpolyester operations of Petrosuape will most likely be a significant competitor. The textured polyester operations of Petrosuape are expected to haveapproximately twice the capacity of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary, Unifi do Brasil. Petrosuape’s textured polyester operation started limited productionin July 2010 and is expected to be in full commercial production by mid 2012. Such significant capacity expansion may negatively affect the utilization rate ofthe synthetic textile filament market in Brazil, thereby potentially impacting the operating results of Unifi do Brasil. In addition, Unifi do Brasil may transfermuch of its current POY purchases from imports to Petrosuape POY. Such a shift will make Unifi do Brasil a significant customer of Petrosuape’soperations; however, it would likely result in Unifi do Brasil losing certain economic assistance benefits provided by local economic incentives. Competitivepricing from Petrosuape and/or efficiency gains in Unifi do Brasil’s operations may not make up for the loss of these incentives. A failure to make up thesebenefits could have a material adverse effect on Unifi do Brasil’s and/or the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The primary competitive factors in the textile industry include price, quality, product styling and differentiation, flexibility of production and finishing,delivery time and customer service. The needs of particular customers and the characteristics of particular products determine the relative importance of thesevarious factors. Because the Company, and the supply chains in which the Company operates, do not typically operate on the basis of long-term contractswith textile and apparel customers, these competitive factors could cause the Company’s customers to rapidly shift to other producers. A large number of theCompany’s foreign competitors have significant competitive advantages, including lower labor costs, lower raw materials and favorable currency exchangerates against the U.S. dollar. If any of these advantages increase, the Company’s products could become less competitive, and its sales and profits maydecrease as a result. In addition, while traditionally these foreign competitors have focused on commodity production, they are now increasingly focused onvalue-added products, where the Company continues to generate higher margins. The Company, and the supply chains in which the Company operates, maynot be able to continue to compete effectively with imported foreign-made textile and apparel products, which would materially adversely affect its business,financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. An increase of illegal transshipments of textile and apparel goods into the U.S. could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. According to industry experts and trade associations, there has been a significant amount of illegal transshipments of apparel products into the U.S. and suchillegal transshipments continue to negatively impact the U.S. textile market. Illegal transshipment involves circumventing quotas by falsely claiming thattextiles and apparel are a product of a particular country of origin or include yarn of a particular country of origin to avoid paying higher duties or to receivebenefits from regional FTAs, such as NAFTA and CAFTA. If illegal transshipment is not monitored and enforcement is not effective, these shipments couldhave a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 12 As product demand flow shifts within a region the Company could lose its cost competitiveness due to the location of its assets.The Company’s polyester segment primarily manufactures its products in the U.S. and El Salvador. The Company’s nylon segment primarily manufacturesits products in Colombia and the U.S. The Company’s international segment primarily manufactures its products in Brazil and has a sales office inChina. As product demand flow shifts within the regions in which the Company does business, it could lose its cost competitiveness due to the location of itsassets. The Company’s operations may incur higher manufacturing, transportation and/or raw material costs in its present operating locations than it couldachieve should its operations be located in these new product demand centers. This could adversely affect the competitiveness of the Company’s operationsand have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. A decline in general economic or political conditions and changes in consumer spending could cause the Company’s sales and profits to decline.The Company’s products are used in the production of fabric primarily for the apparel, hosiery, home furnishing, automotive, industrial and other similarend-use markets. Demand for furniture and durable goods, such as automobiles, is often affected significantly by economic conditions. Demand for anumber of categories of apparel also tends to be tied to economic cycles and customer preference. Domestic demand for textile products therefore tends to varywith the business cycles of the U.S. economy as well as changes in global trade flows, and economic and political conditions. Future armed conflicts,terrorist activities, economic and political conditions or natural disasters in the U.S. or abroad and any consequential actions on the part of the U.S.government and others may cause general economic conditions in the U.S. to deteriorate or otherwise reduce U.S. consumer spending. The global economy is currently undergoing a period of unprecedented volatility. The Company cannot predict when economic conditions will improve orstabilize. A prolonged period of economic volatility or continued decline could adversely affect demand for the Company’s products and have a materialadverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. A decline in general economic conditions or consumer confidence mayalso lead to significant changes to inventory levels and, in turn, replenishment orders placed with suppliers. These changing demands ultimately work theirway through the supply chain and could adversely affect demand for the Company’s products and have a material adverse effect on its business, financialcondition, results of operations or cash flows. Also, as one of the many participants in the U.S. and regional textile and apparel supply chains, the Company’s business and competitive position aredirectly impacted by the business and financial condition of the other participants across the supply chains in which it operates, including other regional yarnmanufacturers, knitters and weavers. If other supply chain participants are unable to access capital, fund their operations and make required technologicaland other investments in their businesses or experience diminished demand for their products, there could be a material adverse effect on the Company’sbusiness, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Failure to implement future technological advances in the textile industry or fund capital expenditure requirements could have a material adverseeffect on the Company’s competitive position and net sales.The Company’s operating results depend to a significant extent on its ability to continue to introduce innovative products and applications and to continue todevelop its production processes to be a competitive producer. Accordingly, to maintain its competitive position and its revenue base, the Company mustcontinually modernize its manufacturing processes, plants and equipment. To this end, the Company has historically made significant investments in itsmanufacturing infrastructure. Future technological advances in the textile industry may result in an increase in the efficiency of existing manufacturing anddistribution systems or the innovation of new products and the Company may not be able to adapt to such technological changes or offer such products on atimely basis if it does not incur significant capital expenditures. Existing, proposed or yet undeveloped technologies may render its technology less profitableor less viable, and the Company may not have available the financial and other resources to compete effectively against companies possessing suchtechnologies. To the extent sources of funds are insufficient to meet its ongoing capital improvement requirements, the Company would need to seek alternativesources of financing or curtail or delay capital spending plans. The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary financing when needed or on termsacceptable to the Company. The Company is unable to predict which of the many possible future products and services will meet the evolving industrystandards and consumer demands. If the Company fails to make future capital improvements necessary to continue the modernization of its manufacturingoperations and reduction of its costs, its competitive position may suffer, and its net sales may decline. 13 The significant price volatility of many of the Company’s raw materials and rising energy costs may result in increased production costs, whichthe Company may not be able to pass on to its customers, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results ofoperations or cash flows.A significant portion of the Company’s raw materials and energy costs are derived from petroleum-based chemicals. The prices for petroleum and petroleum-related products and energy costs are volatile and dependent on global supply and demand dynamics, including geo-political risks. While the Company entersinto raw material supply agreements from time to time, these agreements typically provide index pricing based on quoted feedstock market prices. Therefore,its supply agreements provide only limited protection against price volatility. While the Company has at times in the past matched cost increases withcorresponding product price increases, the Company was not always able to immediately raise product prices, and, ultimately, pass on underlying costincreases to its customers. The Company has in the past lost and expects that it may continue to lose, customers to its competitors as a result of priceincreases. In addition, its competitors may be able to obtain raw materials at a lower cost due to market regulations that favor local producers, and certainother market regulations that favor the Company over other producers may be amended or repealed. Additional raw material and energy cost increases that theCompany is not able to fully pass on to customers or the loss of a large number of customers to competitors as a result of price increases could have a materialadverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company depends upon limited sources for raw materials, and interruptions in supply could increase its costs of production and cause itsoperations to suffer.The Company depends on a limited number of third parties for certain raw material supplies, such as POY and Chip. Although alternative sources of rawmaterials exist, the Company may not continue to be able to obtain adequate supplies of such materials on acceptable terms, or at all, from other sources. TheCompany is dependent on NAFTA and CAFTA qualified suppliers of POY which in the future may experience interruptions or limitations in the supply of itsraw materials, which would increase its product costs and could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations orcash flows. These POY suppliers are also at risk with their raw material supply chains. Any disruption or curtailment in the supply of any of its rawmaterials could cause the Company to reduce or cease its production in general or require the Company to increase its pricing, which could have a materialadverse effect on its business, financial condition, and results of operations or cash flows. Changes in the trade regulatory environment could weaken the Company’s competitive position dramatically and have a material adverse effect onits business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.A number of sectors of the textile industry in which the Company sells its products, particularly apparel, hosiery and home furnishings, are subject to intenseforeign competition. Other sectors of the textile industry in which the Company sells its products may in the future become subject to more intense foreigncompetition. There are currently a number of trade regulations and duties in place to protect the U.S. textile industry against competition from low-pricedforeign producers, such as China. Changes in such trade regulations and duties may make its products less attractive from a price standpoint than the goodsof its competitors or the finished apparel products of a competitor in the supply chain, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, increased foreign capacity and imports that compete directly with its products could havea similar effect. Furthermore, one of the Company’s key business strategies is to expand its business within countries that are parties to FTAs with theU.S. Any relaxation of duties or other trade protections with respect to countries that are not parties to those FTAs could therefore decrease the importance ofthe trade agreements and have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The proposed Korea FTA is potentially problematic for various sectors of the U.S. textile industry. In contrast to FTA’s in recent years, the Korea FTA is thefirst FTA since the NAFTA agreement where the country in question has a large, vertically integrated and developed textile sector. Duty-free treatment underthe proposed agreement could adversely affect the U.S. textile and apparel industries due to concerns with transshipments and the fact that this FTA wouldgive Korea a greater competitive advantage by further reducing the cost of Korean products in the U.S. The Korea FTA was negotiated under “Fast Track”during the Bush Administration, and changes to the treatment of automobiles under the FTA were negotiated by the Obama Administration to reduceopposition in the U.S. Congress. The Obama Administration has indicated it would like to introduce the bill in Congress in the fall of 2011. The U.S. textileindustry continues to work with the U.S. Trade Office and the Administration to address its concerns with the Korea FTA. The Company has significant foreign operations and its results of operations may be adversely affected by the risks associated with doingbusiness in foreign locations.The Company has operations in Brazil, China, Colombia, El Salvador and a joint venture in Israel. The Company serves customers in Canada, Mexico,Israel and various countries in Europe, Central America, South America, Africa, and Asia. The Company’s foreign operations are subject to certain political,economic and other uncertainties not encountered by its domestic operations that can materially impact the Company’s supply chains, or other aspects of itsforeign operations. The risks of international operations include trade barriers, duties, exchange controls, national and regional labor strikes, social andpolitical unrest, general economic risks, required compliance with a variety of foreign laws, including tax laws, the difficulty of enforcing agreements andcollecting receivables through foreign legal systems, taxes on distributions or deemed distributions to the Company or any of its U.S. subsidiaries,maintenance of minimum capital requirements and import and export controls. 14 Through its subsidiaries, the Company is subject to the tax laws of many jurisdictions. Changes in tax laws or the interpretation of tax laws can affect theCompany’s earnings, as can the resolution of various pending and contested tax issues. In most jurisdictions, the Company regularly has audits andexaminations by the designated tax authorities, and additional tax assessments are common. Through its foreign operations, the Company is also exposed to currency fluctuations and exchange rate risks. Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates willimpact period-to-period comparisons of its reported results. Additionally, the Company operates in countries with foreign exchange controls. These controlsmay limit its ability to repatriate funds from its international operations and joint ventures or otherwise convert local currencies into U.S. dollars. Theselimitations could adversely affect the Company’s ability to access cash from these operations. Unifi do Brasil receives certain regulatory benefits through the sales of its product in Brazil. If these benefits are significantly reduced or repealed, it wouldhave a material adverse effect on the Company’s profitability and cash flows. The Company’s Deleveraging Strategy could result in the Company maintaining larger balances outstanding under its First Amended CreditAgreement and decrease the Company’s excess borrowing availability, which could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and preventit from fulfilling its obligations under its debt agreements.On an ongoing basis, the Company anticipates utilizing its liquidity to continue to redeem portions of its 2014 notes incrementally through a combination ofinternally generated cash and borrowings under the First Amended Credit Agreement. The Company expects to maintain a continuous balance outstandingunder the First Amended Credit Agreement and to hedge a substantial amount of the interest rate risk in order to ensure its interest savings as it executes theDeleveraging Strategy. The Company’s First Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to meet a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio test if borrowing capacity is less than15% of the total credit facility. The consummation of the redemption of the 2014 notes and implementation of the Deleveraging Strategy may result in theCompany maintaining reduced levels of excess availability under the First Amended Credit Agreement, but not to the extent that the fixed charge coverage ratiotest applies. If the Company’s availability under the First Amended Credit Agreement falls below 15% of the total credit facility, it may not be able to maintainthe required fixed charge coverage ratio. Additionally, the First Amended Credit Agreement restricts the Company’s ability to make certain distributions andinvestments should its borrowing capacity decrease to below 27.5% of the total credit facility. These restrictions could limit the Company’s ability to plan foror react to market conditions or meet its capital needs. The Company may not be granted waivers or amendments to its First Amended Credit Agreement if forany reason the Company is unable to meet its requirements, or the Company may not be able to refinance its debt on terms acceptable to it, or at all. The success of the Company depends on the ability of its senior management team, as well as the Company’s ability to attract and retain keypersonnel.The Company’s success is highly dependent on the abilities of its management team. The management team must be able to effectively work together tosuccessfully conduct the Company’s current operations, as well as implement the Company’s strategies. If it is unable to do so, the results of operations andfinancial condition of the Company may suffer. The failure to retain current key managers or key members of the design, product development,manufacturing, merchandising or marketing staff, or to hire additional qualified personnel for its operations could be detrimental to the Company’sbusiness. The Company currently does not have any employment agreements with its corporate officers and cannot assure investors that any of theseindividuals will remain with the Company. The Company currently does not have life insurance policies on any of the members of the senior managementteam. Unforeseen or recurring operational problems at any of the Company’s facilities may cause significant lost production, which could have amaterial adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.The Company’s manufacturing processes could be affected by operational problems that could impair its production capability. Each of its facilities containscomplex and sophisticated machines that are used in its manufacturing processes. Disruptions at any of its facilities could be caused by maintenance outages;prolonged power failures or reductions; a breakdown, failure or substandard performance of any of its machines; the effect of noncompliance with materialenvironmental requirements or permits; disruptions in the transportation infrastructure, including railroad tracks, bridges, tunnels or roads; fires, floods,earthquakes or other catastrophic disasters; labor difficulties; or other operational problems. Any prolonged disruption in operations at any of its facilitiescould cause significant lost production, which would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 15 The Company’s future success will depend in part on its ability to protect its intellectual property rights, and the Company’s inability to enforcethese rights could cause it to lose sales and any competitive advantage it has.The Company’s success depends in part upon its ability to protect and preserve its rights in its trademarks and other intellectual property it owns orlicenses. The Company relies on the trademark, copyright and trade secret laws of the U.S. and other countries, as well as nondisclosure and confidentialityagreements, to protect its intellectual property rights. However, the Company may be unable to prevent third parties, employees or contractors from using itsintellectual property without authorization, breaching any nondisclosure or confidentiality agreements with it, or independently developing technology that issimilar to the Company’s property. The use of the Company’s intellectual property by others without authorization may reduce any competitive advantage thatit has developed, cause it to lose sales or otherwise harm its business. The Company has obtained U.S. and foreign trademark registrations, and will continueto evaluate the registration of additional trademarks, as appropriate. The Company cannot guarantee that its applications will be approved by the applicablegovernmental authorities or that third parties may not seek to oppose or otherwise challenge its registrations or applications. A failure to obtain or maintaintrademark registrations in the U.S. and other countries could limit the Company’s ability to protect its trademarks and impede its marketing efforts in thosejurisdictions. The Company cannot be certain that the conduct of its business does not and will not infringe the intellectual property rights of others, or that third parties donot and will not infringe on or misappropriate its intellectual property. The Company may be subject to, or initiate, legal proceedings and claims in theordinary course of its business, which could result in costly litigation and divert the efforts of its personnel. Depending on the success of these proceedings,the Company may be required to enter into licensing or consent agreements (if available on acceptable terms or at all), or to pay damages or cease using certaintrademarks or other intellectual property. Although its intellectual property plays an important role in maintaining its competitive position, no singletrademark, patent, copyright or license is, in the Company’s view, of such value to it that the Company’s business would be materially affected by theexpiration, termination or infringement thereof. Failure to successfully reduce the Company’s production costs may adversely affect its financial results.A significant portion of the Company’s strategy relies upon its ability to successfully rationalize and improve the efficiency of its operations. In particular, theCompany’s strategy relies on its ability to reduce its production costs in order to remain competitive. The Company has consolidated multiple unprofitablebusinesses and made significant capital expenditures to more completely automate its production facilities to lessen its dependence on labor and decreasewaste. If the Company is not able to continue to successfully implement cost reduction measures, or if these efforts do not generate the level of cost savingsthat it expects going forward or result in higher than expected costs, there could be a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results ofoperations or cash flows. The Company is currently implementing various strategic business initiatives, and the success of the Company’s business will depend on its abilityto effectively develop and implement these initiatives.The Company is currently implementing various strategic business initiatives, including a new recycling center that improves its capability and flexibility inthe production of PVA yarns and vertically integrating into recycled polyester Chip production for use in its Repreve product offering. The development andimplementation of these initiatives requires financial and management commitments outside of day-to-day operations. These commitments could have asignificant impact on the Company’s operations and profitability, particularly if the initiatives prove to be unsuccessful. Moreover, if the Company is unableto implement an initiative in a timely manner, or if those initiatives turn out to be ineffective or are executed improperly, the Company’s business, financialcondition, results of operations or cash flows could be adversely affected. The Company’s substantial level of indebtedness could adversely affect its financial condition.The Company’s outstanding indebtedness could have important consequences, including the following: ● its high level of indebtedness could make it more difficult for the Company to satisfy its obligations with respect to the 2014 notes, includingits repurchase obligations; ● the restrictions imposed on the operation of its business may hinder its ability to take advantage of strategic opportunities to grow its business; ● its ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate purposes may be impaired; ● the Company must use a substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to pay interest on its indebtedness, which will reduce the fundsavailable to the Company for operations and other purposes; ● its high level of indebtedness could place the Company at a competitive disadvantage compared to its competitors that may haveproportionately less debt; ● it may be exposed to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of its borrowings, including borrowings under its First Amended CreditAgreement, are at variable rates of interest; 16 ● its cost of borrowing may increase; ● its flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and the industry in which it operates may be limited; and ● its high level of indebtedness makes the Company more vulnerable to economic downturns and adverse developments in its business. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and ability tosatisfy its obligations under its indebtedness. Despite its current indebtedness levels, the Company may still be able to incur substantially more debt. This could further exacerbate the risksassociated with its substantial leverage.The Company and its subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness, including additional secured indebtedness, in the future. Theterms of its current debt restrict, but do not completely prohibit, the Company from doing so. The Company’s First Amended Credit Agreement permits up to$100,000 of borrowings, which the Company can request be increased to $150,000 under certain circumstances, with a borrowing base specified in the creditfacility as equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. In addition, the Indenture allows the Company to issue additional notesunder certain circumstances and to incur certain other additional secured debt, and allows its foreign subsidiaries to incur additional debt. The Indenture doesnot prevent the Company from incurring other liabilities that do not constitute indebtedness. If new debt or other liabilities are added to its current debt levels,the related risks that the Company now faces could intensify. The terms of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness impose significant operating and financial restrictions, which may prevent the Companyfrom pursuing certain business opportunities and taking certain actions.The terms of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness impose significant operating and financial restrictions on the Company. These restrictions will limit orprohibit, among other things, its ability to: ● incur and guarantee indebtedness or issue preferred stock; ● repay subordinated indebtedness prior to its stated maturity; ● pay dividends or make other distributions on or redeem or repurchase the Company’s stock; ● issue capital stock; ● make certain investments or acquisitions; ● create liens; ● sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies; ● enter into certain transactions with stockholders and affiliates; and ● restrict dividends, distributions or other payments from its subsidiaries. These restrictions could limit its ability to plan for or react to market conditions or meet its capital needs. The Company may not be granted waivers oramendments to its First Amended Credit Agreement if for any reason the Company is unable to meet its requirements or the Company may not be able torefinance its indebtedness on terms that are acceptable to it, or at all. The breach of any of these covenants or restrictions could result in a default under theIndenture or its First Amended Credit Agreement. An event of default under its debt agreements would permit some of its lenders to declare all amountsborrowed from them to be due and payable. Such default may allow the creditors to accelerate the related debt and may result in the acceleration of any otherdebt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies. In addition, an event of default under its First Amended Credit Agreement would permitthe lenders under the First Amended Credit Agreement to terminate all commitments to extend further credit under that agreement. Furthermore, if the Companywas unable to repay the amounts due and payable under its First Amended Credit Agreement, those lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to themto secure that indebtedness and force the Company into bankruptcy or liquidation. In the event its lenders or note holders accelerate the repayment of itsborrowings, the Company and its guarantor subsidiaries may not have sufficient assets to repay that indebtedness. As a result of these restrictions, theCompany may be:● limited in how it conducts its business; ● unable to raise additional debt or equity financing to operate during general economic or business downturns; or ● unable to compete effectively or to take advantage of new business opportunities. These restrictions may affect the Company’s ability to grow in accordance with its plans. 17 The Company has made and may continue to make investments in entities that it does not control.The Company has established joint ventures and made minority interest investments designed, among other things, to increase its vertical integration, increaseefficiencies in its procurement, manufacturing processes, marketing and distribution in the U.S. and other markets. The Company’s inability to controlentities in which it invests may affect its ability to receive distributions from those entities or to fully implement its business plan. The incurrence of debt orentry into other agreements by an entity not under its control may result in restrictions or prohibitions on that entity’s ability to pay dividends or make otherdistributions. Even where these entities are not restricted by contract or by law from making distributions, the Company may not be able to influence theoccurrence or timing of such distributions. In addition, if any of the other investors in these entities fails to observe its commitments, that entity may not beable to operate according to its business plan or the Company may be required to increase its level of commitment. If any of these events were to occur, itsbusiness, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could be adversely affected. Because the Company does not own a majority or maintainvoting control of these entities, the Company does not have the ability to control their policies, management or affairs. The interests of persons who controlthese entities or partners may differ from the Company’s, and they may cause such entities to take actions which are not in the Company’s best interest. If theCompany is unable to maintain its relationships with its partners in these entities, the Company could lose its ability to operate in these areas which couldhave a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Parkdale America, LLC joint venture may lose Economic Adjustment Assistance to Users of Upland Cotton which could adversely affect theCompany’s investment income and cash flows.One of the Company’s joint ventures, Parkdale America, LLC (“PAL”), receives economic adjustment payments (“EAP”) from the Commodity CreditCorporation under the Economic Assistance program to Users of Upland Cotton, Subpart C of the 2008 Farm Bill. The program provides textile mills asubsidy of four cents per pound on eligible upland cotton consumed during the first four years and three cents per pound for the last six years of theprogram. The economic assistance received under this program must be used to acquire, construct, install, modernize, develop, convert or expand land,plant, buildings, equipment, or machinery. Capital expenditures must be directly attributable to the purpose of manufacturing upland cotton into eligiblecotton products in the U.S. Since August 1, 2008, PAL has received $65,164 of economic assistance under the program. Should PAL no longer meet thecriteria to receive economic assistance under the program or should the program be discontinued, PAL’s business could be significantly impacted. Compliance with environmental and other regulations could require significant expenditures.The Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations that govern its activities, operations and products that may haveadverse environmental, health and safety effects, including laws and regulations relating to generating emissions, water discharges, waste, product andpackaging content and workplace safety. Noncompliance with these laws and regulations may result in substantial monetary penalties and criminal sanctions.Future events that could give rise to manufacturing interruptions or environmental remediation include changes in existing laws and regulations, the enactmentof new laws and regulations, a release of hazardous substances on or from its properties or any associated offsite disposal location, or the discovery ofcontamination from current or prior activities at any of its properties. While the Company is not aware of any proposed regulations or remedial obligations thatcould trigger significant costs or capital expenditures in order to comply, any such regulations or obligations could adversely affect its business, results ofoperations, financial condition and cash flows.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Forward-Looking StatementsThe following discussion contains certain forward-looking statements about the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Forward-looking statements are those that do not relate solely to historical fact. They include, but are not limited to, any statement that may predict, forecast,indicate or imply future results, performance, achievements or events. They may contain words such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,”“intend,” “project,” “plan,” “will,” or words or phrases of similar meaning. They may relate to, among other things, the risks described under the caption“Item 1A—Risk Factors” above and: ● the competitive nature of the textile industry and the impact of worldwide competition; ● changes in the trade regulatory environment and governmental policies and legislation; ● the availability, sourcing and pricing of raw materials; ● general domestic and international economic and industry conditions in markets where the Company competes, such as recession and othereconomic and political factors over which the Company has no control; ● changes in consumer spending, customer preferences, fashion trends and end-uses; ● its ability to reduce production costs; ● changes in currency exchange rates, interest and inflation rates; ● the financial condition of its customers; ● its ability to sell excess assets; ● technological advancements and the continued availability of financial resources to fund capital expenditures; ● the operating performance of joint ventures, alliances and other equity investments; ● the accurate financial reporting of information from equity method investees; ● the impact of environmental, health and safety regulations; ● the loss of a material customer; ● the ability to protect its intellectual property; ● employee relations; ● volatility of financial and credit markets; ● the continuity of the Company’s leadership; ● availability of and access to credit on reasonable terms; and ● the success of the Company’s strategic business initiatives. These forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risks anduncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from trends, plans or expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements. These risks anduncertainties may include those discussed above or in “Item 1A—Risk Factors.” New risks can emerge from time to time. It is not possible for the Companyto predict all of these risks, nor can it assess the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ from those containedin forward-looking statements. The Company will not update these forward-looking statements, even if its situation changes in the future, except as requiredby federal securities laws. 24 Business OverviewThe Company processes and sells both high-volume commodity products, specialized yarns designed to meet certain customer specifications, and PVA yarnswith enhanced performance characteristics and higher expected gross margin percentages.

During fiscal year 2011, the Company used excess operating cash and borrowings under its revolving credit facility to redeem$45,000 of its 2014 notes. The Company subsequently completed an additional $10,000 redemption of its 2014 notes on August 5, 2011 at a redemptionprice of 102.875% which was financed through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. Interest expense decreased from $21,889 in fiscal year 2010 to$19,190 in fiscal year 2011 primarily due to a lower average outstanding debt related to the Company’s 2014 notes and a decline in the weighted averageinterest rate from 11.9% in fiscal year 2010 to 11.0% in fiscal year 2011. Going forward, the Company expects to continue to utilize its excess operating cashand borrowings under its revolving credit facility to redeem additional amounts of these 2014 notes.

In order to more effectively service the Central American market, the Company began dismantling and relocating idledpolyester texturing equipment from its Yadkinville, North Carolina facility to El Salvador during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 and completed thestartup of the UCA manufacturing facility in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011. This investment has resulted in a net increase of the Company’stexturing capacity of approximately 15%. The new manufacturing facility in El Salvador has allowed the Company to become a local supplier to the CAFTAregion as global sourcing continues to move programs from Asia as the region becomes a competitive alternative to Asian supply chains for certain apparelcategories. The Company expects year-over-year volume growth from the CAFTA region and is in the process of adding additional texturing capacity to itsplant in El Salvador to meet this future demand. Investment in a Recycling Center. On May 4, 2011, the Company officially opened its state-of-the-art Repreve recycling center in Yadkinville, NorthCarolina increasing its investment in the commercialization of recycled PVA products. This facility is expected to improve the availability of recycled rawmaterials and significantly increase product capabilities and competitiveness in this growing market. The technology installed in this operation allows theCompany to expand the Repreve brand by increasing the amount and types of recyclable material that can be processed through its facility. The Companyexpects this will also make it an even stronger partner in the development and commercialization of value-added products that meet the sustainability demandsof today’s brands and retailers. These investments and activities are critical to achieving the Company’s target of doubling its PVA sales within three years. China Growth. The Company’s Chinese subsidiary increased its net sales by approximately 60% and its sales volumes by approximately 40% in fiscal year2011, as compared to fiscal year 2010, as the Company continued to improve its development, sourcing, resale and servicing of PVA products in the Asianregion. 25 Operational Excellence. Over the past year, the Company expanded its efforts in LEAN manufacturing and statistical process control in all of its operationsaiming for measurable improvements in the cost of operations. These efforts have resulted in demonstrated savings over the last several years as well as greatlyimproved operational flexibility and are expected to result in continued improvement over the next several years. Inflation. For the most recently completed fiscal year and for the foreseeable future, the Company expects rising costs to continue for the consumables that ituses to produce and ship its products, as well as for its utilities and certain employee and medical costs. While the Company attempts to mitigate these risingcosts through its operational efficiencies and increased selling prices, inflation may become a factor that begins to negatively impact the Company’sprofitability. Raw Materials. The feedstock for the Company’s raw materials have seen significant cost increases during the past year which peaked in the fourth quarterof fiscal year 2011. In addition, PTA pricing, which is a major component of polyester, declined by 10% in Asia in the June 2011 quarter compared to theprior quarter, while it increased by 2% in the U.S. While the Company expects the price difference to return to normal which would reverse the competitiveedge that Asia had in the June 2011 quarter, such dramatic increases and changes in raw material costs could negatively impact the Company’s operatingresults if sales prices cannot be adjusted in tandem with such fast or unexpected rises in cost. Brazil. During fiscal year 2011, on a local currency basis, the Company’s Brazilian operation experienced approximately an 8% decline in its gross profitson a per unit basis. Sales volumes have been negatively impacted over the prior fiscal year as market conditions weakened. Gross profit was also negativelyimpacted by a higher average cost of raw materials. The Brazilian operation has also been negatively impacted by increasing levels of imports of yarn, fabricand garments from Asia due in part to the strengthening of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar. Strategy. Although the Company has improved its overall performance there are many challenges still ahead related to competition, inflation, raw materialcosts and weakness of the U.S. and global economies. The Company believes the future success of its current business model will be based on the success ofthe regional free trade markets in which it trades and its ability to: increase its sales of PVA yarns including its Repreve recycled yarns; implement cost savingstrategies; pass on raw material price increases to its customers; and strategically penetrate growth markets, such as China, Central America, and Brazil. TheCompany will continue to focus on sustaining and continuously improving operations and profitability, and increasing its net sales and earnings in globalmarkets. The Company will strive to create additional value through mix enrichment, share gain, process improvement throughout the organization, andexpanding the number of customers and programs using its high value and PVA yarns. Key Performance IndicatorsThe Company continuously reviews performance indicators to measure its success. The following are the indicators management uses to assess performanceof the Company’s business:● sales volume for the Company and for each of its reportable segments; ● gross profits and gross margin for the Company and for each of its reportable segments; ● Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”) represents net income or loss before net interest expense, incometax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense; ● Consolidated EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. ● Adjusted EBITDA represents Consolidated EBITDA adjusted to exclude restructuring charges, startup costs, non-cash compensation expensenet of distributions, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill impairment, and otheradjustments. Other adjustments include gains or losses on sales or disposals of property, plant, or equipment (“PP&E”), currency andderivative gains or losses, other non-operating expenses, and the gain from sale of nitrogen credits. The Company may, from time to time,change the items included within Adjusted EBITDA; ● Segment Adjusted Profit equals segment gross profit, less segment SG&A expenses, plus segment depreciation and amortization; ● Adjusted working capital dollars (accounts receivable plus inventory less accounts payable and accruals) and Adjusted working capital as apercentage of sales are indicators of the Company’s production efficiency and ability to manage its inventory and receivables. EBITDA, Consolidated EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted Profit are financial measurements that management uses to facilitate its analysisand understanding of the Company’s business operations. Management believes they are useful to investors because they provide a supplemental way tounderstand the underlying operating performance and debt service capacity of the Company. The calculation of EBITDA, Consolidated EBITDA, AdjustedEBITDA, Segment Adjusted Profit, and Adjusted working capital are subjective measures based on management’s belief as to which items should be includedor excluded, in order to provide the most reasonable view of the underlying operating performance of the business. EBITDA, Consolidated EBITDA,Adjusted EBITDA, Segment Adjusted Profit and Adjusted working capital are not considered to be in accordance with generally accepted accountingprinciples (“non-GAAP measurements”) and should not be considered a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. 26 Results of OperationsThe following table presents a summary of net income (loss) for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Net sales $712,812 $622,618 $558,415 Cost of sales 638,160 549,367 528,722 Gross profit 74,652 73,251 29,693 Selling, general and administrative expenses and other operating expenses, net 45,960 47,863 56,253 Operating income (loss) 28,692 25,388 (26,560)Non-operating (income) expense, net (3,730) 7,017 18,200 Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes 32,422 18,371 (44,760)Provision for income taxes 7,333 7,686 4,301 Income (loss) from continuing operations 25,089 10,685 (49,061)Income from discontinued operations, net oftax — — 65 Net income (loss) $25,089 $10,685 $(48,996) The following table presents the reconciliations of net income (loss) to Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Net income (loss) $25,089 $10,685 $(48,996)Provision for income taxes 7,333 7,686 4,301 Interest expense, net 16,679 18,764 20,219 Depreciation and amortization expense 25,562 26,312 31,326 EBITDA $74,663 $63,447 $6,850 Equity in earnings of unconsolidatedaffiliates (24,352) (11,693) (3,251) Consolidated EBITDA $50,311 $51,754 $3,599 Restructuring charges 1,484 739 91 Impairment of long-lived assets andgoodwill — 100 18,930 Startup costs (1) 3,065 1,027 — Non-cash compensation, net ofdistributions 1,361 2,555 1,500 Loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt 3,337 (54) (251)Impairment of investment in unconsolidated affiliates — — 1,483 Other 902 (865) (2,067)Adjusted EBITDA $60,460 $55,256 $23,285 The following table presents the reconciliation of Segment Adjusted Profit to Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Net sales $712,812 $622,618 $558,415 Cost of sales 638,160 549,367 528,722 Gross profit 74,652 73,251 29,693 Selling, general and administrative expenses 44,659 47,934 40,309 Operating profit (loss)before other operating (income) expense, net 29,993 25,317 (10,616)Depreciation and amortization of specific reportable segment assets 25,543 26,201 31,183 Segment Adjusted Profit $55,536 $51,518 $20,567 Startup costs (1) 3,065 1,027 — Asset consolidation and optimizationexpense — — 3,508 Non-cash compensation, net ofdistributions 1,361 2,555 1,500 Benefit (provision) for bad debts 304 (123) (2,414)Other 194 279 124 Adjusted EBITDA $60,460 $55,256 $23,285 (1) During fiscal year 2011, startup costs related to costs associated with UCA operating expenses as well as the cost to install machinery in Yadkinville,North Carolina. During fiscal year 2010, initial UCA operating expenses incurred related to pre-operating expenses including the hiring and training of newemployees and the costs of operating personnel to initiate the new operations. Start-up expenses also include losses incurred in the period subsequent to whenUCA assets became available for use but prior to the achievement of a reasonable level of production.  27 The following table presents the reconciliation of Segment Net Sales to Consolidated Net Sales for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Polyester segment net sales $375,605 $308,691 $289,864 Nylon segment net sales 163,354 165,098 151,736 International segment net sales 173,853 148,829 116,815 Subtotal segment net sales $712,812 $622,618 $558,415 Consolidated net sales $712,812 $622,618 $558,415 The following table presents the reconciliation of Segment Gross Profit to Consolidated Gross Profit for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Polyester segment gross profit $24,730 $21,622 $2,504 Nylon segment gross profit 19,771 20,778 11,883 International segment gross profit 30,151 30,851 15,306 Subtotal segment gross profit $74,652 $73,251 $29,693 Consolidated gross profit $74,652 $73,251 $29,693 The following table presents the reconciliation of Segment SG&A to Consolidated SG&A for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Polyester segment SG&A $25,687 $28,732 $25,376 Nylon segment SG&A 8,874 9,939 8,450 International segment SG&A 10,098 9,263 6,483 Subtotal segment SG&A $44,659 $47,934 $40,309 Consolidated SG&A $44,659 $47,934 $40,309 The following table presents the reconciliation of Segment Depreciation and Amortization to Consolidated Depreciation and Amortization for fiscal years 2011,2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Polyester segment depreciation andamortization $17,924 $19,679 $20,236 Nylon segment depreciation andamortization 3,287 3,477 6,859 International segment depreciation and amortization 4,332 3,045 4,088 Subtotal segment depreciation andamortization $25,543 $26,201 $31,183 Depreciation included in other operating (income) expense 19 111 143 Amortization included in interest expense 415 1,104 1,147 Consolidated depreciation and amortization $25,977 $27,416 $32,473 28 The following table presents Segment Adjusted Profit for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Polyester Segment Adjusted Profit $16,967 $12,569 $(2,636)Nylon Segment Adjusted Profit 14,184 14,316 10,292 International Segment Adjusted Profit 24,385 24,633 12,911 Subtotal Segment Adjusted Profit $55,536 $51,518 $20,567 Review of Fiscal Year 2011 Results of Operations Compared to Fiscal Year 2010 Consolidated OverviewThe following table presents the net income components for fiscal year 2011 and fiscal year 2010.

On a consolidated basis, the weighted-average selling price per poundincreased by 8.6% compared to the prior fiscal year driven by mix enrichment and the Company’s ability to pass along increasing raw material pricesexperienced throughout most of the year which peaked in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011. Consolidated Gross ProfitConsolidated gross profit increased by $1,401 to $74,652 for fiscal year 2011 as compared to fiscal year 2010. This increase in gross profit was primarilyattributable to higher sales volumes and improved conversions (net sales less raw material cost), partially offset by increased manufacturing cost. Conversionon a per unit basis improved 0.4% as the Company improved its mix through increased PVA sales. Total manufacturing costs increased $13,029 as a resultof the higher volumes and, on a unit basis, increased 1.5% which primarily reflects lower capacity utilization rates within the nylon segment and certaininflationary costs. 29 Polyester Segment Gross ProfitThe following table presents the segment gross profit components for the polyester segment for fiscal years 2011 and 2010. The table also presents the percentto net sales and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior year: 2011 2010 % to Net Sales % to Net Sales % Inc.(Dec.)Net sales $375,605 100.0 $308,691 100.0 21.8Cost of sales 350,875 93.4 287,069 93.0 22.2Gross profit 24,730 6.6 21,622 7.0 14.4 In fiscal year 2011, polyester net sales increased by 21.8% compared to fiscal year 2010. The Company’s polyester segment sales volumes increased 11.8%and the weighted-average selling price increased 10%. Increased volumes are primarily a result of increased demand for the segment’s products due toimprovements in retail sales of apparel and increased production levels from the CAFTA region at the expense of Asian supply chains. The polyestersegment’s new manufacturing facility in El Salvador has allowed the Company to participate in additional volume opportunities as global sourcing continuesto move to the CAFTA region from Asia. The increase in weighted-average selling price primarily reflects increases to recover lost conversion as raw materialprices increased throughout most of the current fiscal year.Gross profit for the polyester segment increased 14.4% over fiscal year 2010. On a unit basis, gross profit improved 2.3% as compared to the prior year. Theincrease in gross profit is mainly attributable to increased volumes and mix enrichment from higher PVA sales. Polyester conversion on a per unit basisremained flat against the prior year despite higher levels of PVA sales as increases in sales prices lagged increases in raw material costs.Total manufacturing costs increased 11.0% for fiscal year 2011 as compared to the prior year and decreased 0.7% on a per unit basis. Manufacturing costswere primarily unfavorably impacted by higher wage and fringe benefit costs of $3,149, packaging supplies of $2,596, utilities of $1,859, depreciationexpenses of $1,228 and other fixed costs of $1,854. The increases for employee related costs are driven primarily by both the total cost per employee (due towage increases and rising medical costs) and the number of employees at the new locations in El Salvador and the Company’s recycling center. The increasesin packaging and utilities are due to increased consumption from higher capacity utilization, as well as inflation negatively impacting these input costs. Theother fixed costs primarily relate to certain UCA start-up costs and losses incurred during the period in which UCA assets became available for use but priorto the achievement of a reasonable level of production. The segment’s variable manufacturing costs decreased by approximately 2.7% on a per unit basis dueto a higher capacity utilization offsetting the spending increases. The segment’s fixed manufacturing costs per unit increased approximately 7% due to thenegative effects of the start-up costs and higher depreciation expenses.The polyester segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 52.7% and 33.1% for fiscal year 2011 compared to 49.6%and 29.5% for fiscal year 2010, respectively. Outlook for 2012:The Company expects to see improvements from its new recycling center and plant operations in El Salvador, however, these improvements will be mitigatedby the negative effects of inflation for certain consumables and utilities as well as increasing employee costs. For the polyester segment, volumes are expectedto be flat and selling prices are expected to move in tandem with the changes in raw material costs. The emphasis on and success of PVA products greatlyimpacts the operating results of this segment. Nylon Segment Gross ProfitThe following table presents the segment gross profit components for the nylon segment for fiscal years 2011 and 2010. The table also presents the percent tonet sales and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior year: 2011 2010 % toNet Sales % toNet Sales % Inc.(Dec.)Net sales $163,354 100.0 $165,098 100.0 (1.1)Cost of sales 143,583 87.9 144,320 87.4 (0.5)Gross profit 19,771 12.1 20,778 12.6 (4.8) Fiscal year 2011 nylon segment net sales decreased 1.1% compared to fiscal year 2010. Nylon segment sales volumes decreased by 2.2% while the weighted-average selling price increased by 1.1%. The decline in nylon sales volume was due to softening demand primarily in the hosiery and sock end-use marketsduring the second half of fiscal year 2011. The increase in the average selling price was primarily a result of increases in raw material pricing partially offsetby a shift in the mix of products sold. 30 Gross profit for the nylon segment decreased 4.8% in fiscal year 2011 as compared to fiscal year 2010. Total conversion dollars decreased $553 or 0.8%primarily as a result of lower sales volumes and the shift in mix. Manufacturing costs increased 3.7% on a per unit basis. During 2011, the segmentexperienced a slightly lower capacity utilization rate. The lower utilization rate coupled with higher packaging, warehousing and certain allocatedmanufacturing costs have caused the increase in per unit cost. Efforts to decrease spending for utilities and wages were unable to offset these increases.The nylon segment net sales and gross profit, as a percentage of total consolidated amounts, were 22.9% and 26.5% for fiscal year 2011 compared to 26.5%and 28.4% for fiscal year 2010, respectively. Outlook for 2012:For the nylon segment, volumes are expected to be flat and selling prices will move in tandem with the changes in raw material costs. This segment is verysusceptible to changes in product mix and the fixed nature of the majority of its spending makes production volume a key metric. The Company continues topredict inflationary costs, which if not offset by manufacturing efficiencies, could negatively impact the segment’s profitability. International Segment Gross ProfitThe following table presents the segment gross profit components for the international segment for fiscal years 2011 and 2010. The table also presents thepercent to net sales and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior year: 2011 2010 % to Net Sales % toNet Sales % Inc.(Dec.)Net sales $173,853 100.0 $148,829 100.0 16.8Cost of sales 143,702 82.7 117,978 79.3 21.8Gross profit 30,151 17.3 30,851 20.7 (2.3) International segment net sales for fiscal year 2011 increased 16.8% as compared to fiscal year 2010. International segment sales volumes decreased 2.7% andthe weighted-average selling price increased 19.5% as compared to the prior year. Gross profit for the international segment decreased compared to the prioryear which is comprised of a decline in gross profit in Brazil which was partially offset by an increase in gross profit in Unifi Textiles Suzhou Co., Ltd.(“UTSC”). During fiscal year 2011, on a local currency basis, the Company’s Brazilian operation experienced 7.8% decline in its gross profits on a per unit basis. Salesvolumes have decreased 9.6% over the prior fiscal year due to increased competition from imported yarn, fabric and garments from Asia. This increasedmarket penetration is due to the recent strengthening of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar and dramatic changes in Asian polyester prices over the lasthalf of the fiscal year. Variable manufacturing costs increased by 18.6% on a per unit basis, primarily as a result of increases in packing materials andutilities. Fixed manufacturing costs increased 19.0% on a per unit basis, mainly due to higher depreciation expense and increased salaries and fringe benefitcosts. The increases in per unit manufacturing costs also reflect a lower capacity utilization rate resulting from lower volumes. On a U.S. dollar basis, netsales increased 10.7% in fiscal year 2011 compared to the prior year which includes a $9,863 positive currency exchange impact. Gross profit on a U.S.dollar basis decreased 10.3%.The Company’s Chinese subsidiary increased its polyester net sales by approximately 60% and its sales volumes by approximately 40% in fiscal year 2011as compared to 2010 as the Company continued to improve its development, sourcing, resale and servicing of PVA products in the Asian region.The international segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 24.4% and 40.4% for fiscal year 2011 compared to23.9% and 42.1% for fiscal year 2010, respectively. Outlook for 2012:The Company expects to see continued improvements in its Chinese subsidiary as volumes and PVA sales increase. The Company expects volumes andprofitability for its Brazilian operations to temporarily decline during the first half of fiscal year 2012 due to the increasing levels of imports and higheraverage raw material costs. During the second half of fiscal year 2012, the Company expects its Brazilian operation to return to more normalized levels, with aslight weakening of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar and its raw material prices returning to more normal levels. 31 Consolidated Selling General & Administrative ExpensesConsolidated selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased in total and as a percentage of net sales for fiscal year 2011 as compared to theprior year. The 7% decrease in SG&A costs of $3,275 for fiscal year 2011 was primarily a result of a decrease of $1,213 in fringe benefit costs, a decreaseof $1,160 in non-cash deferred compensation costs, and a reduction in depreciation and amortization expenses of $1,264. The reduction in fringe benefitcosts is mainly related to reductions in certain variable compensation programs. Consolidated Restructuring and ImpairmentsThe Company incurred $948 and $770 related to the relocation of idled polyester equipment from Yadkinville, North Carolina to El Salvador during fiscalyears 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, the Company incurred $628 for costs of reinstalling idle texturing equipment to replace the manufacturingcapacity in its Yadkinville, North Carolina facility in fiscal year 2011. These costs were charged to restructuring expense as incurred. Consolidated (Benefit) Provision for Bad DebtsDue to improved economic conditions, the overall health of the Company’s accounts receivable and certain risk accounts continued to improve. As a result,the Company recorded a $304 benefit as compared to an expense of $123 recorded in the prior fiscal year. Consolidated Other Operating (Income) Expense, NetThe following table presents the components of other operating (income) expense, net for fiscal years 2011 and 2010: 2011 2010 Net loss on sale or disposal of PP&E $368 $680 Currency gains (19) (145)Gain from sale of nitrogen credits ― (1,400)Other, net (228) (168)Other operating (income) expense, net $121 $(1,033) Consolidated Interest Expense, NetInterest expense decreased from $21,889 in fiscal year 2010 to $19,190 in fiscal year 2011 primarily due to lower average outstanding debt related to theCompany’s 2014 notes. During the current fiscal year, the Company used excess operating cash and lower rate borrowings under its revolving credit facilityto redeem $45,000 of its 2014 notes. The weighted average interest rate of Company debt for fiscal year 2011 and 2010 was 11.0% and 11.9%,respectively. Interest income was $2,511 in fiscal year 2011 and $3,125 in fiscal year 2010. Outlook for 2012:As a result of the above redemptions, the Company expects to incur approximately $2.3 million less net interest expense in fiscal year 2012. As the Companyexecutes on its Deleveraging Strategy, the trend for declining interest expense is expected to continue. Consolidated Non-Operating (Income) Expenses, netNon-operating (income) expense consists of losses from extinguishment of debt of $3,337 in fiscal year 2011 and gains on extinguishments of debt of $54 infiscal year 2010. In addition, the Company incurred charges of $606 in fiscal year 2011 primarily for fees associated with an unsuccessful debt refinancing. Consolidated Income Taxes 2011 2010 Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes: United States $14,737 $(4,399)Foreign 17,685 22,770 $32,422 $18,371 The provision for (benefit from) income taxes, net for fiscal years 2011 and 2010 consists of the following: 2011 2010 Federal $3 $(48)Foreign 7,330 7,734 Income tax provision $7,333 $7,686 32 The Company recognized income tax expense at an effective tax rate of 22.6% and 41.8% for fiscal years 2011 and 2010, respectively. The lower effective taxrate for 2011 compared to the statutory rate of 35% is due to the reduction in the Company’s valuation allowance in 2011, partially offset by taxes onrepatriated foreign earnings. During 2011, the Company changed its indefinite reinvestment assertion related to the future repatriation of Unifi do Brasil,Ltda. (“UDB”) earnings and profits by $26,630. The Company currently has a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets in the U.S. and certain foreign subsidiaries due to negative evidenceconcerning the realization of those deferred tax assets in recent years. The Company had a valuation allowance of $30,164 and $39,988 as of June 26, 2011and June 27, 2010, respectively. The $9,824 net decrease in fiscal year 2011 resulted primarily from a decrease in temporary differences, the effects of thechange in the indefinite reinvestment assertion, and a utilization of state and federal net operating loss carryforwards. The Company continually evaluates both positive and negative evidence to determine whether and when the valuation allowance, or a portion thereof, shouldbe released. A release of the valuation allowance could have a material effect on earnings in the period of release. Consolidated Equity in (Earnings) Losses of Unconsolidated AffiliatesThe Company participates in joint ventures in the U.S. and in Israel. As of June 26, 2011, the Company has $91,258 invested in these unconsolidatedaffiliates. For fiscal year 2011, $24,352 of the Company’s $32,422 of income from continuing operations before income taxes was generated from itsinvestments in these four unconsolidated affiliates. See “Footnote 22. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates and Variable Interest Entities” to theConsolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a detailed discussion of the Company’s investments in thesejoint ventures. Earnings from the Company’s unconsolidated equity affiliates was $24,352 in fiscal year 2011 compared to $11,693 in fiscal year 2010. The Company’s34% share of PAL’s earnings increased from $11,605 in fiscal year 2010 to $22,655 in fiscal year 2011 primarily due to improved economic conditions,increased sales volumes, and the timing of the recognition of income related to the economic assistance benefits. The remaining increase relates to the improvedperformance of UNF and UNF America which was primarily driven by increased volumes and capacity utilization. Outlook for 2012:For fiscal year 2012, the Company expects no significant changes in the earnings from unconsolidated affiliates. Consolidated Net IncomeNet income for fiscal year 2011 was $25,089, or $1.25 per basic share, compared to net income of $10,685, or $0.53 per basic share, for the prior fiscalyear. The Company’s increased profitability was due primarily to higher sales volumes over the prior fiscal year, improved operational efficiencies, decreasedSG&A expenses, and increased earnings from the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAAdjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2011 increased $5,203 versus fiscal year 2010. As discussed above, consolidated gross profit increased $1,401 whileSG&A decreased $3,275. The primary differences between the aforementioned changes in gross profit and SG&A expenses and the Company’s keyperformance Adjusted EBITDA metric are primarily start-up costs, non-cash compensation charges, provision (benefit) for bad debt, other operating (income)expense items and depreciation. 33 Review of Fiscal Year 2010 Results of Operations Compared to Fiscal Year 2009The following table presents the net income components for fiscal year 2010 and fiscal year 2009. The table also presents each of the net income componentsas a percent to total net sales and the percentage increase or decrease of such components over the prior year: 2010 2009 % to Total % to Total % Inc.

For the fiscal year 2010,unit sales volumes increased by 15.9% reflecting improvements for all segments. The increase in sales volumes predominantly for the Company’scommodity products was attributable to the recovery from the recent global economic downturn which had impacted all textile supply chains andmarkets. The weighted-average selling price per unit for the Company’s products on a consolidated basis decreased 4.4% as compared to the prior fiscal year. Consolidated Gross ProfitConsolidated gross profit from continuing operations increased $43,558 to $73,251 for fiscal year 2010. This increase in gross profit was primarilyattributable to higher sales volumes, improved conversions (net sales less raw material cost) and improved per unit manufacturing costs for all reportablesegments which resulted in a gross margin increase from 5.3% to 11.8%. Consolidated conversion per unit improved 5.2% as the Company recoveredpreviously lost margins resulting from significantly higher raw material cost in the prior year. However, this recovery was mitigated by the impact of risingaverage raw material prices which began during the second quarter of fiscal year 2010. Gross profit was also positively impacted by improvements inmanufacturing costs which declined 16.8% on a per unit basis. The improvements in manufacturing costs were attributable to increased capacity utilizationand to the Company’s continued focus on process improvements. Polyester Segment Gross ProfitThe following table presents the segment gross profit components for the polyester segment for fiscal years 2010 and 2009. The table also presents the percentto net sales and the percentage changes versus the prior year: 2010 2009 % to Net Sales % to Net Sales % Inc.(Dec.) Net sales $308,691 100.0 $289,864 100.0 6.5Cost of sales 287,069 93.0 287,360 99.1 (0.1)Gross profit 21,622 7.0 2,504 0.9 763.5 34 In fiscal year 2010, net sales for the polyester segment increased by $18,827, or 6.5% compared to fiscal year 2009. The Company’s polyester segment salesvolumes increased approximately 14.2% and the weighted-average selling price decreased approximately 7.7%. The improvement in polyester sales volume infiscal year 2010 related to increases in retail sales which favorably impacted the Company’s core markets when compared to fiscal year 2009. The decrease inweighted-average selling price reflected changes in the Company’s sales product mix to a higher percentage of commodity products following the market shiftsand to fully utilize the Company’s manufacturing capacity. Sales of PVA yarns were not significantly impacted by the recession. Conversion profits on a unitbasis remained flat. Gross profit was also favorably impacted by significant reductions in per unit manufacturing costs of approximately 17% due to highercapacity utilization levels and various operational improvements implemented during the 2010 fiscal year as well as declines in certain employee, depreciation,project and property tax expenses.UCA began its resale operations during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 and operated at a slightly negative gross profit as a result of inefficiencies duringthe startup of the facility.The polyester segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 49.6% and 29.5% for fiscal year 2010 compared to 51.9%and 8.4% for fiscal year 2009, respectively. Nylon Segment Gross ProfitThe following table presents the segment gross profit components for the nylon segment for fiscal years 2010 and 2009. The table also presents the percent tonet sales and the percentage changes versus the prior year: 2010 2009 % to Net Sales % toNet Sales % Inc.(Dec.) Net sales $165,098 100.0 $151,736 100.0 8.8Cost of sales 144,320 87.4 139,853 92.2 3.2Gross profit 20,778 12.6 11,883 7.8 74.9 After being negatively impacted by the economic downturn during fiscal year 2009, the nylon segment sales improved considerably during fiscal year 2010due to the recovery of volumes in the legwear and apparel markets and strength in regional sourcing. Fiscal year 2010 nylon net sales increased by $13,362,or 8.8% compared to fiscal year 2009. The Company’s nylon segment sales volumes increased by 11.3% while the weighted-average selling price decreasedby 2.5%. The reduction in the average selling price was primarily due to a shift in the mix of products sold. Gross profit for the nylon segment also increaseddue to improvements in conversion and manufacturing costs. Declines in raw material costs from 2009 levels led to higher conversions on a per unitbasis. Higher utilization rates led to favorable changes in the manufacturing costs per unit despite inflationary pressures for certain employee, utility andpackaging costs.The nylon segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 26.5% and 28.4% for fiscal year 2010 compared to 27.2%and 40.0% for fiscal year 2009, respectively. International Segment Gross ProfitThe following table presents the segment gross profit components for the international segment for fiscal years 2010 and 2009. The table also presents thepercent to net sales and the percentage change versus the prior year: 2010 2009 % to Net Sales % toNet Sales % Inc.(Dec.)Net sales $148,829 100.0 $116,815 100.0 27.4Cost of sales 117,978 79.3 101,509 86.9 16.2Gross profit 30,851 20.7 15,306 13.1 101.6 In fiscal year 2010, international segment net sales increased by $32,014, or 27.4% compared to fiscal year 2009. The Company’s international segment salesvolumes increased 21.4% and the weighted-average selling price increased approximately 6.0%. Gross profit for the international segment increased $15,545compared to the prior year. Total conversion increased $18,824 or 30.9% on a per unit basis as result of increased volumes and improved conversion marginin Brazil. Manufacturing costs increased by $3,279 but decreased 11.2% on a per unit basis which reflects higher volumes and a higher capacity utilizationrate in Brazil. 35 The Company’s operation in Brazil increased its net sales and volumes versus fiscal year 2009 but experienced declines in selling prices that were offset bygreater corresponding declines in raw materials which led to a higher conversion per unit. The increase in sales volumes was primarily due to the recoveryfrom the recent global economic downturn which had impacted all textile supply chains and markets. Higher utilization rates led to lower manufacturing costsper unit. Changes in currency also contributed to the improvement versus fiscal year 2009. The Company’s Chinese subsidiary, UTSC, increased its net sales in fiscal year 2010 compared to 2009 as the Company strategically improved itsdevelopment, sourcing, and servicing of PVA products in the Asian region. UTSC began selling products to its customers in February 2009. The international segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 23.9% and 42.1% for fiscal year 2010 compared to20.9% and 51.5% for fiscal year 2009, respectively.Consolidated SG&A ExpensesConsolidated SG&A expenses increased by $7,625 or 18.9% for fiscal year 2010. The increase in SG&A for fiscal year 2010 was primarily a result of a$5,172 increase in fringe benefit costs which was primarily related to higher variable compensation expenses. The remaining SG&A expenses increased dueto $965 in non-cash deferred compensation costs related to stock option grants, $564 for credit issuance and in sales commissions, and $924 of sales andmarketing expenses, employee relations and other miscellaneous expenses. Consolidated Restructuring and ImpairmentsOn January 11, 2010, the Company announced the creation of UCA. With a base of operations established in El Salvador, UCA serves customers primarilyin the Central American region. The Company began dismantling and relocating idled polyester equipment from its Yadkinville, North Carolina facility to ElSalvador during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 and completed the startup of the UCA manufacturing facility in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011.The Company incurred $770 in polyester equipment relocation costs during fiscal year 2010. During fiscal year 2009, the Company determined that a review of the remaining assets held for sale located in Kinston, North Carolina was necessary as aresult of sales negotiations. As a result of this review, the Company determined that the carrying value of the assets exceeded the fair value and recorded $350in non-cash impairment charges related to these assets. During fiscal year 2010, the Company completed the disposal of the assets held for sale in Kinston,North Carolina and, based on the contract price the Company recorded an additional $100 non-cash impairment charge. Based on a decline in its market capitalization during fiscal year 2009 and difficult market conditions, the Company determined that it was appropriate to re-evaluate the carrying value of its goodwill. As a result of the findings, the Company determined that the goodwill was impaired and recorded an impairmentcharge of $18,580 in fiscal year 2009. Consolidated Provision for Bad DebtsFor fiscal year 2010, the Company recorded a $123 provision for uncollectible accounts. This compares to a provision of $2,414 recorded in the prior fiscalyear. In fiscal year 2009, the Company experienced unfavorable adjustments as a result of the global decline in economic conditions and the negative effectson both the Company’s accounts receivable aging and its customers; however, in fiscal year 2010, the improved health of the economy and the Company’saccounts receivable aging reversed this trend. Consolidated Other Operating (Income) Expense, NetThe following table presents the components of other operating (income) expense for fiscal years 2010 and 2009: 2010 2009 Net (gain) loss on sale or disposal of PP&E $680 $(5,856)Gain from sale of nitrogen credits (1,400) ― Currency (gains) losses (145) 354 Other, net (168) 11 $(1,033) $(5,491) As part of the Company’s acquisition of certain manufacturing assets and inventory located in Kinston, North Carolina from INVISTA, the Companyobtained waste water discharge permits (“nitrogen credits”) that were previously issued to INVISTA by the North Carolina Department of Environmental andNatural Resources (“DENR”). In accordance with the rights afforded the Company as part of this acquisition, the Company sold and received cash proceedsof $1,400 from the sale of the excess nitrogen credits during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. 36 On September 29, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to sell certain real property and related assets located in Yadkinville, North Carolina for$7,000. On December 19, 2008, the Company completed the sale which resulted in net proceeds of $6,646 and a net pre-tax gain of $5,238 in the secondquarter of fiscal year 2009. Consolidated Interest Expense, netInterest expense decreased from $23,152 in fiscal year 2009 to $21,889 in fiscal year 2010 primarily due to lower average outstanding debt related to theCompany’s 2014 notes. The weighted average interest rate of debt outstanding at June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009 was 11.9% and 11.5%,respectively. Interest income was $3,125 in fiscal year 2010 and $2,933 in fiscal year 2009. Consolidated Non-Operating (Income) Expenses, netOther non-operating (income) expense consists of gains from extinguishment of debt of $54 and $251 in fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively. During2009, the Company renegotiated a proposed agreement to sell its interest in YUFI and recorded an impairment charge of $1,483 related to a change in the fairvalue of its investment and certain disputed accounts receivable. Consolidated Income TaxesIncome (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes consists of the following: 2010 2009 Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes: United States $(4,399) $(54,310)Foreign 22,770 9,550 $18,371 $(44,760) The provision for (benefit from) income taxes, net applicable to continuing operations for fiscal years 2010 and 2009 consists of the following: 2010 2009 Federal $(48) $― Foreign 7,734 4,301 Income tax provision $7,686 $4,301 The Company recognized income tax expense at an effective tax rate of 41.8% and 9.6% for fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively. Income tax expense inany period is typically different than such expense determined at the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to losses in certain jurisdictions for which noincome tax benefits are anticipated, income in foreign jurisdictions where taxes are calculated at statutory rates different than the U.S. federal statutory rate,foreign withholding taxes for which credits are not anticipated, and U.S. state income taxes. The key difference between the Company’s effective tax rate for2010 and the statutory tax rate of 35% is due to the mix of tax jurisdictions in which profits or losses exist and the effects of the repatriation of foreignearnings. The key difference between the Company’s 2010 effective tax rate and the Company’s 2009 effective tax rate relates to the results of the U.S.operations and the assumptions related to the Company’s valuation allowances. The Company had a valuation allowance of $39,988 and $40,118 as of June27, 2010 and June 28, 2009, respectively. Consolidated Equity in (Earnings) Losses of Unconsolidated AffiliatesEarnings from the Company’s unconsolidated equity affiliates was $11,693 in fiscal year 2010 compared to $3,251 in fiscal year 2009. The Company’s34% share of PAL’s earnings increased from $4,724 of income in fiscal year 2009 to $11,605 of income in fiscal year 2010 primarily due to improvedeconomic conditions, increased sales volumes and the timing of the recognition of income related to cotton subsidies. Consolidated Net Income (Loss)For fiscal year 2010, the Company recognized $18,371 of income from continuing operations before income taxes which was an increase of $63,131 over theprior year. The increase in income from continuing operations was primarily attributable to improved gross profit in all reportable segments as a result ofimprovements in year-over-year retail demand in the Company’s core markets and a reduction in goodwill impairment charges recorded in fiscal year 2009. 37 Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAAdjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2010 increased $31,971 versus fiscal year 2009. As discussed above, gross profit increased $43,558 while SG&Aexpense increased $7,625. The primary differences between the aforementioned changes in gross profit and SG&A expenses and the Company’s keyperformance Adjusted EBITDA metric are primarily start-up costs, non-cash compensation charges, provision (benefit) for bad debt, other operating (income)expense items, asset consolidation and optimization expense and depreciation. Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity AssessmentThe Company’s primary capital requirements are for working capital, capital expenditures, debt repayment and service of indebtedness. The Company’sprimary sources of capital are cash generated from operations and amounts available under its revolving credit facility. Cash generated from operations was$11,880, $20,581 and $16,960 for the fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Working capital increased from $174,464 as of June 27, 2010 to$212,969 as of June 26, 2011 primarily due to an increase in inventory and a decrease in current portion of long-term debt. Adjusted working capitalincreased $34,872 primarily due to the increase in inventory values caused by rising raw material prices and increased receivables related to higher sellingprices. Historically, the Company has met its working capital, capital expenditures and service of indebtedness requirements from its cash flows fromoperations. For fiscal year 2011, cash generated from operations did not cover the Company’s working capital needs, capital expenditures and service ofindebtedness. The Company used borrowings from its revolving credit facility to supplement cash flows from operations. Availability under the revolvingcredit facility was $51,734 as of June 26, 2011. For each of the previous three years, before considering the earnings from the Company's unconsolidated equity affiliates, the Company has reported losses inthe U.S. from continuing operations while reporting income from continuing operations for its foreign operations. On a consolidated basis, the Company hasreported income from continuing operations in each of the last two years before considering earnings from its equity affiliates. The following table presents asummary of the Company’s cash, working capital and debt obligations for its U.S. and foreign operations as of June 26, 2011: U.S. Brazil All Others Total Cash and cash equivalents $1,979 $18,325 $7,186 $27,490 Working capital 111,115 78,604 23,250 212,969 Long-term debt, including current portion 168,664 — — 168,664 During 2011, the Company changed its indefinite reinvestment assertion related to $26,630 of the earnings and profits held by UDB. The Company hasestablished a deferred tax liability, net of estimated foreign tax credit, of approximately $3,854 related to the additional income tax that would be due as a resultof the current plan to repatriate earnings in future periods. All other remaining undistributed earnings are deemed to be indefinitely reinvested. As of June 26, 2011, the Company has $47,970 of federal and $44,325 of state net operating loss carryforwards that may be used to offset future taxableincome. If these loss carryforwards either expire or become utilized, the Company’s cash requirements for federal and state income taxes may increase. TheCompany currently has a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets in the U.S. and certain foreign subsidiaries due to negative evidenceconcerning the realization of those deferred tax assets in recent years. The Company continually evaluates both positive and negative evidence to determinewhether and when the valuation allowance, or a portion thereof, should be released. A release of the valuation allowance could have a material effect onearnings in the period of release. The following table presents the amounts of the Company’s various tax carryforwards as of June 26, 2011. These carryforwards, if unused, will expire asfollows:Federal net operating loss carryforwards $47,970 2024 through 2030State net operating loss carryforwards 44,325 2012 through 2031Federal tax credit carryforwards 1,542 2012 through 2031North Carolina investment tax creditcarryforwards 511 2012 through 2015 The Company currently believes that its existing cash balances, cash generated by operations, together with its available credit capacity, will enable theCompany to comply with the terms of its indebtedness and meet the foreseeable liquidity requirements. Domestically, the Company's cash balances, cashgenerated by operations and borrowings available under the revolving credit facility continue to be sufficient to fund its domestic operating activities and cashcommitments for its investing and financing activities. For its Foreign operations, the Company's existing cash balances and cash generated by operationsshould provide the needed liquidity to fund its foreign operating activities and any foreign investing activities, such as future capital expenditures. 38 Cash Provided by Continuing OperationsThe following table presents the net cash provided by continuing operations for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009 Cash receipts: Receipts from customers $701,487 $605,143 $573,068 Dividends from unconsolidated affiliates 5,900 3,265 3,688 Other receipts 3,939 4,591 355 Cash payments: Payments to suppliers and other operatingcost 556,519 460,131 428,683 Payments for salaries, wages, and benefits 114,364 101,218 103,610 Payments for restructuring and severance 1,785 1,823 2,055 Payments for interest 19,292 20,696 22,639 Payments for taxes 7,486 8,550 3,164 $11,880 $20,581 $16,960 Fiscal Year 2011 compared to Fiscal Year 2010Cash received from customers increased 15.9% as a result of increased volumes and selling prices. Consolidated volumes increased 5.9% while weightedaverage selling prices increased 8.6%. Payments to suppliers increased 20.9% also as a result of increased volumes and rising raw material costs. Salary,wage and benefit payments increased 13.0% due to increased fringe benefit costs related to the timing of bonus payments and retirement plan matchingfunds. In addition, the Company had 200 additional wage level employees versus the prior year, primarily related to the completion of UCA and the Repreverecycling center. Interest payments decreased $1,404 as a result of a $45,000 principal reduction of the Company’s 2014 notes of which $30,000 was financedat a lower rate through the Company’s revolving credit facility. Restructuring and severance payments decreased 2.1% as the Company completed itsreorganization of machinery involving certain of its polyester facilities and made its final payments on its previously accrued severance commitment. Taxespaid by the Company decreased from $8,550 to $7,486 primarily as a result of a decrease in tax liabilities related to the Company’s Braziliansubsidiary. The Company received increased cash dividends as a result of the improved earnings of PAL, UNF and UNF America. Other cash receiptsdecreased in fiscal year 2011 primarily due to the one time sale of $1,400 of nitrogen credits during fiscal year 2010 and currency exchange gains. Otherreceipts include miscellaneous items, currency exchange and interest income. Fiscal Year 2010 compared to Fiscal Year 2009Cash received from customers increased 5.6% primarily due to the increase in sales volumes. Payments to suppliers increased 7.3% as a result of highervolumes partially offset by lower raw material costs. Salary, wage and benefit payments decreased 2.3% as a result of decreased salaries and wages offset byincreased fringe benefit costs. Interest payments decreased due to the reduction of outstanding 2014 notes and lower revolver fees. Restructuring and severancepayments were reduced due to final payments made on certain prior year severance reserves, the completion of the Company’s consolidation of its Dillon,South Carolina facility, and the closure of its Kinston, North Carolina facility. Taxes paid by the Company increased primarily as a result of an increase intax expenses related to the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary. The Company received cash dividends from PAL which were down slightly from the previousyear. Other receipts increased due to the sale of $1,400 of nitrogen credits and a recovery of prior year currency exchange losses. Other receipts includemiscellaneous other items, currency exchange and interest income. Cash Used in Investing Activities and Financing ActivitiesCapital ExpendituresIn addition to its normal working capital requirements, the Company requires cash to fund capital expenditures. During fiscal year 2011, the Company spent$20,539 on capital expenditures compared to $13,112 in the prior year. One investment included a capital project related to the backward supply chainintegration of the Company’s 100% recycled Repreve product. The Company estimates its fiscal year 2012 capital expenditures will be approximately $12,000to $14,000, which is inclusive of approximately $8,000 of maintenance capital expenditures, with the remainder representing capital expenditures focusedprimarily on improving the Company’s flexibility and capabilities to produce PVA products. As of June 26, 2011, the Company had no restricted cash fundsthat are required to be used for domestic capital expenditures. The Company may incur additional capital expenditures as it pursues new opportunities toexpand its production capabilities or to further streamline its manufacturing processes. 39 Note RepurchasesThe Company may, from time to time, seek to retire or purchase its outstanding debt in open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions or bycalling a portion of the notes under the terms of the Indenture. Such retirement or purchase of debt may come from the operating cash flows of the business orother sources and will depend upon the Company’s strategy, prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors,and the amounts involved may be material. During fiscal year 2011, the Company continued to execute its plan to utilize a combination of internally generatedcash and borrowings on its revolving credit facility to repurchase and retire portions of its 2014 notes. The Company expects to maintain a continuousbalance outstanding under its revolving credit facility and hedge a substantial amount of the interest rate risk in order to ensure its interest savings. As a resultof the utilization of cash on hand to reduce outstanding debt and the lower rate under the revolving credit facility, the Company expects a significant reductionof its annual fixed carrying cost between the commencement of this debt reduction strategy and the final repayment of the 2014 notes. Investing and Financing ActivitiesThe Company utilized $17,396 for net investing activities and utilized $14,029 in net financing activities during fiscal year 2011. In addition to the $20,539cash spent to fund capital expenditures the Company reduced its total long-term debt by $10,726 at a premium cost of $2,587. The Company alsorefinanced its revolving credit facility at a cost of $825. The primary offset to these expenditures was proceeds of $3,241 from the return of split dollar lifeinsurance premiums. The Company utilized $8,925 for net investing activities and utilized $13,306 in net financing activities during fiscal year 2010. The primary cashexpenditures during fiscal year 2010 included $13,112 for capital expenditures, $7,943 net for payments of long-term debt, $4,800 of investments inunconsolidated affiliates and $4,995 for the purchase and retirement of Company stock offset by transfers of $7,508 in restricted cash, $1,717 of proceedsfrom the sale of capital assets and other immaterial sources and uses of cash. Long-Term DebtLong-term debt consists of the following as of June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010: 2011 2010 Notes payable $133,722 $178,722 Revolving credit facility 34,600 — Capital lease obligation 342 668 Total debt 168,664 179,390 Current portion of long-term debt (342) (15,327)Total long-term debt $168,322 $164,063 Notes PayableOn May 26, 2006, the Company issued $190,000 of its 2014 notes with interest payable on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The Company cancurrently elect to redeem some or all of the 2014 notes at redemption prices equal to or in excess of par depending on the year the optional redemptionoccurs. The Company may also purchase its 2014 notes in open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions and then retire them or it mayrefinance all or a portion of the 2014 notes with a new debt offering. On June 30, 2010, the Company redeemed $15,000 of its 2014 notes at a redemption price of 105.75% of the principal amount. This redemption wasfinanced through a combination of internally generated cash and borrowings under the Company’s senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility. On February 16, 2011, the Company completed the redemption of an aggregate principal amount of $30,000 of its 2014 notes at a redemption price of105.75%. The Company financed this redemption through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The Company reduced its ongoing exposure tofluctuations in interest rates by entering into a twenty seven-month, $25,000 interest rate swap to provide a hedge against the variability of cash flows. Theinterest rate swap allows the Company to fix the LIBOR rate at 1.39%. On August 5, 2011, the Company completed the redemption of an aggregate principal amount of $10,000 of its 2014 notes at 102.875%. The Companyfinanced the redemption through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. In connection with the redemption, the Company entered into a twenty-onemonth, $10,000 interest rate swap to provide a hedge against the variability of cash flows. This interest rate swap allows the Company to fix the LIBOR rateat 0.75%. Revolving Credit FacilityThe Company’s First Amended Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $100,000 (with the ability of the Company to request that theborrowing capacity be increased up to $150,000) and matures on September 9, 2015. However, if the 2014 notes have not been paid in full on or beforeFebruary 15, 2014, the maturity date of the Company’s revolving credit facility will be automatically adjusted to February 15, 2014. 40 For a detailed discussion of guarantees, liens, affirmative and negative covenants related to the 2014 notes and the First Amended Credit Agreement see“Footnote 12. Long-term Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Contractual ObligationsThe Company’s significant long-term obligations as of June 26, 2011 consist of the following: Cash Payments Due By Period Description of Commitment Total Less Than1 Year 1-3 years 3-5 years More than5 years Long-term debt $168,322 $— $133,722 $34,600 $— Capital lease obligation 342 342 — — — Other long-term obligations (1) 3,866 267 1,167 259 2,173 Subtotal 172,530 609 134,889 34,859 2,173 Letters of credit 2,695 2,695 — — — Interest on long-term debt and other obligations 47,506 15,725 29,980 1,801 — Operating leases 6,961 1,591 2,547 2,030 793 Purchase obligations (2) 39,861 17,560 21,529 772 — Total cash payments by period $269,553 $38,180 $188,945 $39,462 $2,966 (1)Other long-term obligations include other noncurrent liabilities for certain retirement and tax obligations.(2)Purchase obligations primarily consist of utility, software, and other service agreements. For the purposes of this table, purchase obligations are defined as agreements that are enforceable and legally binding and that specify all significant terms,including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. TheCompany’s purchase obligations are in the ordinary course of business for the procurement of (i) selected finished goods for resale sourced from third-partysuppliers, (ii) raw materials used in production, and (iii) certain consumables and outsourced services used in the Company’s manufacturing processes. Asof June 26, 2011, the Company’s open purchase orders totaled approximately $88,040 and are expected to be settled in 2012. ContingenciesEnvironmental LiabilitiesThe land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99 year Ground Lease with DuPont. Since 1993, DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up theKinston site under the supervision of the EPA and DENR pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Corrective Action program. The CorrectiveAction program requires DuPont to identify all potential AOC, assess the extent of contamination at the identified AOCs and clean them up to comply withapplicable regulatory standards. Effective March 20, 2008, the Company entered into a Lease Termination Agreement associated with conveyance of certain ofthe assets at Kinston to DuPont. This agreement terminated the Ground Lease and relieved the Company of any future responsibility for environmentalremediation, other than participation with DuPont, if so called upon, with regard to the Company’s period of operation of the Kinston site. However, theCompany continues to own a satellite service facility acquired in the INVISTA transaction that has contamination from DuPont's operations and is monitoredby DENR. This site has been remediated by DuPont and DuPont has received authority from DENR to discontinue remediation, other than naturalattenuation. DuPont's duty to monitor and report to DENR with respect to this site will be transferred to the Company in the future, at which time DuPontmust pay the Company seven years of monitoring and reporting costs and the Company will assume responsibility for any future remediation and monitoringof this site. At this time, the Company has no basis to determine if and when it will have any responsibility or obligation with respect to the AOCs or theextent of any potential liability for the same. LitigationThe Company is aware of certain claims against it for the alleged use of non-compliant Berry Amendment nylon POY in yarns that the Company sold whichmay have ultimately been used to manufacture certain U.S. military garments (the “Military Claims”). Although the Company believes it has certain potentialdefenses to the claims, the estimate of possible losses, before considering any potential salvage values for the garments, ranges from $200 to $2,100. TheCompany has appropriately accrued for this contingency. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate may differ from the actual claim amount;however, the Company believes any change would not be material to the financial statements. 41 Recent Accounting PronouncementsIn December 2009, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-17, “Consolidations (Topic810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities”. The standard requires reporting entities to evaluate legalentities for consolidation, changes the approach to determining a variable interest entity’s primary beneficiary from a quantitative assessment to a qualitativeassessment designed to identify a controlling financial interest, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine whether an entity is theprimary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The ASU also clarifies, but does not change, the characteristics that identify a VIE and enhancesdisclosures about a company’s involvement in VIEs. The adoption of this standard during fiscal year 2011 did not have a material impact on the Company’sfinancial position or results of operations. In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” which improves the overallpresentation comparability and prominence of items reported in Other Comprehensive Income. The Company has elected to adopt this ASU early and changedthe presentation of the financial statements for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009 accordingly. Off Balance Sheet ArrangementsThe Company is not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on theCompany’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures. Critical Accounting PoliciesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported inthe financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company’s most critical accounting policies as those involving accountingestimates that require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time and where different reasonable estimates or changesin the accounting estimate from quarter to quarter could materially impact the presentation of the financial statements. The following discussion providesfurther information about accounting policies critical to the Company and should be read in conjunction with “Footnote 2. Summary of SignificantAccounting Policies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. An allowance for losses is provided for known and potential losses arising from yarn quality claims and for amountsowed by customers. Reserves for yarn quality claims are based on historical claim experience and known pending claims. The collectibility of accountsreceivable is based on a combination of factors including the aging of accounts receivable, historical write off experience, present economic conditions such ascustomer bankruptcy filings within the industry and the financial health of specific customers and market sectors. Since losses depend to a large degree onfuture economic conditions, and the health of the textile industry, a significant level of judgment is required to arrive at the allowance for doubtfulaccounts. The reserve for bad debts is established based on certain percentages applied to accounts receivable aged for certain periods of time and aresupplemented by specific reserves for certain customer accounts where collection is no longer certain. Establishing reserves for yarn claims and uncollectibleaccounts requires management judgment and estimates. The Company does not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change inthe estimates and assumptions it uses to assess allowance for losses. Certain unforeseen events such as a customer bankruptcy filing, could have a materialimpact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has not made any material changes to the methodology used in establishing its accountsreceivable loss reserves during the past three fiscal years. A plus or minus 10% change in its aged accounts receivable reserve percentages would not have beenmaterial to the Company’s financial statements for the past three years. Inventory Reserves. Inventory reserves are established based on percentage markdowns applied to inventories aged for certain time periods. Specific reservesare established based on a determination of the obsolescence of the inventory and whether the inventory value exceeds amounts to be recovered through expectedsales prices, less selling costs. Estimating sales prices, establishing markdown percentages and evaluating the condition of the inventories require judgmentsand estimates, which may impact the ending inventory valuation and gross margins. The Company uses current and historical knowledge to recordreasonable estimates of its markdown percentages and expected sales prices. The Company believes it is unlikely that differences in actual demand or sellingprices from those projected by management would have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. The Company hasnot made any material changes to the methodology used in establishing its inventory loss reserves during the past three fiscal years. A plus or minus 10%change in its aged inventory markdown percentages would not have been material to the Company’s financial statements for the past three years. 42 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carryingamount may not be recoverable. For assets held for sale, an impairment charge is recognized if the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value less coststo sell. Estimates are required to determine the fair value, the disposal costs and the time period to dispose of the assets. Such estimates are critical indetermining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary. For assetsheld and used, an impairment may occur if projected undiscounted cash flows are not adequate to cover the carrying value of the assets. In such cases,additional analysis is conducted to determine the amount of loss to be recognized. The impairment loss is determined by the difference that the carryingamount of the asset or asset group exceeds the estimated fair value measured by future discounted cash flows. The analysis requires estimates of the amountand timing of projected cash flows and, where applicable, judgments associated with, among other factors, the appropriate discount rate. Such estimates arecritical in determining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to benecessary. The Company’s judgment regarding the existence of circumstances that indicate the potential impairment of an asset’s carrying value is based onseveral factors including, but not limited to, changes in business environment, a decline in operating cash flows or a decision to close a manufacturingfacility. The variability of these factors depends on a number of conditions, including uncertainty about future events and general economic conditions. TheCompany reviewed its long-lived assets for recoverability during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 and determined that the projected undiscounted cashflows were adequate to cover the carrying value of the assets. A 25% decline in the Company’s forecasted cash flows would not have resulted in a failure ofthe undiscounted cash flow test. Impairment of Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates. The Company evaluates its investments in unconsolidated affiliates whenever events or changes incircumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates the ability of an affiliate to sustain sufficient earnings andcash flows to justify its carrying value. Reductions in an affiliate’s cash flows that are other than temporary and indicative of a loss of investment value areassessed for impairment purposes. For the fiscal year ended June 26, 2011, the Company determined there were no “other-than-temporary” impairmentsrelated to the carrying value of its investments. Valuation Allowance for Deferred Tax Assets. The Company currently has a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets in the U.S. andcertain foreign subsidiaries due to negative evidence concerning the realization of those deferred tax assets in recent years. In assessing the realization ofdeferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimaterealization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences reverse.Management considers the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback periods, projected future taxable income and taxplanning strategies in making this assessment. The Company reviews its estimates of future taxable income on a quarterly basis to assess if the need for avaluation allowance exists. The Company continually evaluates both positive and negative evidence to determine whether and when the valuation allowance, ora portion thereof, should be released. A release of the valuation allowance could have a material effect on earnings in the period of release. The valuationallowance as of June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010 was $30,164 and $39,988, respectively. Management and the Board’s Audit Committee discussed the development, selection and disclosure of all of the critical accounting estimates described above. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market RiskThe Company is exposed to market risks associated with changes in interest rates, currency fluctuation rates and raw material and commodity risks whichmay adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for tradingpurposes nor is it a party to any leveraged financial instruments. Interest Rate Risk: The Company is exposed to interest rate risk through its borrowing activities. The majority of the Company’s borrowings are its 2014notes which have a fixed rate of interest. The Company also has borrowings on its revolving credit facility which has a variable rate of interest. The Companymay hedge its interest rate variability on its revolving credit facility using an interest rate swap. The following table presents information about the Company’sprincipal cash flows and weighted average interest rates expected to be incurred through the debt maturity dates.

Each of the Company’soperations may enter into transactions (sales, purchases, or fixed purchase commitments, etc.) that are denominated in currencies other than the operation’sfunctional currency and subject the Company to foreign currency exchange risk. At times, the Company may enter into forward currency contracts to hedgethis exposure. For sales transactions such as these, the Company typically hedges 60% to 75% of the sales value of these orders by using forward currencycontracts. The maturity dates of the forward contracts are intended to match the anticipated collection dates of the receivables. The Company may also enterinto forward currency contracts to hedge its exposure for certain equipment or inventory purchase commitments. As of June 26, 2011, the Company does nothave a significant amount of exposure related to forward currency contracts. As of June 26, 2011, the Company’s subsidiaries outside the U.S., whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, held 23.5% of consolidated totalassets. The Company does not enter into foreign currency derivatives to hedge its net investment in its foreign operations. More information regarding the Company’s derivative financial instruments as of year-end is provided in Footnote 19 “Derivative Instruments and HedgingActivities” to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Raw Material and Commodity Risks: A significant portion of the Company’s raw materials are derived from petroleum-based chemicals. The costs of theCompany’s raw materials can be volatile and availability can depend on global supply and demand dynamics, including certain geo-political risks. TheCompany does not use financial instruments to hedge its exposure to changes in raw materials costs. The costs of the primary raw materials that theCompany uses throughout all of its operations are generally traded based on U.S. dollar pricing. Other Risks: The Company is also exposed to political risk, including changing laws and regulations governing international trade such as quotas, tariffsand tax laws. The degree of impact and the frequency of these events cannot be predicted. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary DataThe Company’s financial statements required by this item are included on pages F-1 through F-47 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Item 15(a) (1) fora listing of financial statements provided. Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial DisclosuresNone. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of June 26, 2011, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls andprocedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) wasperformed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls andprocedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act isrecorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and thatinformation required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicatedto the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding requireddisclosure. (b) Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting. Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintainingadequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act). The Company's internalcontrol over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation offinancial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reportingincludes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions anddispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financialstatements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordancewith authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection ofunauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 44 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation ofeffectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliancewith the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of theCompany's internal control over financial reporting as of June 26, 2011, based on the framework set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations ofthe Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on that assessment, management concluded that, as of June 26,2011, the Company's internal control over financial reporting is effective based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. (c) Attestation report of the registered public accounting firm. The effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 26,2011 has been audited by KPMG, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm. Their report, which appears in “Item 8. Financial Statements andSupplementary Data” included herein, expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as ofJune 26, 2011. (d) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. During the Company's fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, there has been no change in theCompany's internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controlsover financial reporting.

These consolidated financialstatements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements basedon our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require thatwe plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includesexamining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accountingprinciples used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

Unifi Inc.’s management is responsiblefor maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting,included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on theCompany’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require thatwe plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all materialrespects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, andtesting and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such otherprocedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting andthe preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control overfinancial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflectthe transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permitpreparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are beingmade only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention ortimely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation ofeffectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliancewith the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, Unifi Inc. and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 26, 2011, basedon criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheetsof Unifi Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 26, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended June 26, 2011, and our report dated September 9, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on thoseconsolidated financial statements. /s/ KPMG LLP Greensboro, North CarolinaSeptember 9, 2011 F-3 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Unifi, Inc.

Unifi, Inc., (the “Company”) is a publicly-traded, multi-national manufacturing company. The Company processes and sells high-volumecommodity products, specialized yarns designed to meet certain customer specifications, and premier value-added (“PVA”) yarns with enhanced performancecharacteristics and higher expected gross margin percentages. The Company sells its polyester and nylon products to other yarn manufacturers, knitters andweavers that produce fabric for the apparel, hosiery, sock, home furnishings, automotive upholstery, industrial and other end-use markets. The Company’spolyester yarn products include recycled polyester polymer beads (“Chip”), partially oriented yarn (“POY”), textured, solution and package dyed, twisted andbeamed yarns. The Company’s nylon products include textured, solution dyed and covered spandex products. The Company maintains one of the industry’smost comprehensive product offerings and has ten manufacturing operations in four countries and participates in joint ventures in Israel and the United States(“U.S.”). In addition, the Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China (“China”) focused on the sale and promotion of theCompany’s specialty and PVA products in the Asian textile market, primarily in China as well as into Europe. Fiscal Year. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Sunday in June. However, the Company’s Brazilian, Colombian, and Chinese subsidiaries’ fiscalyears end on June 30th. There are no significant transactions or events that have occurred between these dates and the date of the Company’s financialstatements. All references to “2011”, “2010”, and “2009” relate to the 52 week fiscal years ended on June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010, and June 28, 2009,respectively. All amounts and share amounts, except per share amounts, are presented in thousands, except as otherwise noted. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesThe Company follows generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). The significant accounting policies described below,together with the other notes that follow, are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements. Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries in which it maintains acontrolling financial interest. All account balances and transactions between the Company and the subsidiaries which it controls have been eliminated.Investments in companies where the Company is able to exercise significant influence, but not control, are accounted for by the equity method. Fortransactions with entities accounted for under the equity method, any intercompany profits on amounts still remaining are eliminated. Amounts originatingfrom any deferral of intercompany profits are recorded within either the Company’s investment account or the account balance to which the transactionspecifically relates (e.g., inventory). Only upon settlement of the intercompany transaction with a third party is the deferral of the intercompany profitrecognized by the Company. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make use of estimates and assumptionsthat affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, certain financial statement disclosures at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amountsof revenues and expenses during the period. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include amounts that are based on management’s best estimatesand judgments. Actual results may vary from these estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically to determine if a change is required. Reclassification. The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior year information to conform to the current year presentation. The Companyhas also revised revenue for fiscal years 2010 and 2009 to exclude freight and other selling costs to conform to the current policy regarding the classification ofshipping and handling costs. This resulted in an increase to revenue, cost of sales, and selling, general and administrative expenses of $5,865, $4,114, and$1,751, respectively in fiscal year 2010 and $4,752, $3,565 and $1,187 in fiscal year 2009. There was no impact to operating or net income (loss). Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid, short-term investments having an original maturity of three months or less. Bankoverdrafts for which the bank has not advanced cash, if any, are reclassified to current liabilities. The Company’s U.S. non-interest bearing accounts arefully insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation through calendar year 2012. The Brazilian government insures cash deposits up to sixty thousandBrazilian Real per depositor (or approximately $37). As of June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010, uninsured Brazilian deposits were $18,171 and $24,186,respectively. F-10 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) Restricted Cash. Cash deposits held for a specific purpose or held as security for contractual obligations are classified as restricted cash. In accordance withthe Company’s debt obligations, proceeds from the sale of domestic property, plant and equipment are deposited into an escrow account and the Companymay use the restricted funds to purchase additional qualifying assets. The Company had no restricted cash as of June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010. Receivables. Receivables are stated at their net realizable value. Allowances are provided for known and potential losses arising from yarn quality claims andfor amounts owed by customers. Reserves for yarn quality claims are based on historical experience and known pending claims and are recorded as areduction of net sales. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is shown as a reduction of operating income and reflects the Company’s best estimate ofprobable losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio determined on the basis of historical experience, aging of trade receivables, specific allowances forknown troubled accounts and other currently available information. Accounts are written off against the allowance when they are no longer deemed to becollectible. The Company does not have any single customer or affiliated group of customers that comprise more than ten percent of annual consolidated netsales or ending receivables. Inventories. The Company’s inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market with the cost for the majority of its inventory determined using the first-in,first-out (“FIFO”) method. Certain foreign inventories and limited categories of domestic supplies inventories are valued using the average cost method. TheCompany’s estimates for inventory reserves for any obsolete, slow-moving or excess inventories are based upon many factors including historical recoveryrates, the aging of inventories on-hand, the inventory movement and expected net realizable value of specific products, and current economic conditions. Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation iscalculated primarily utilizing the straight-line method over the following useful lives: Asset categoriesDepreciable livesLand improvementsTwenty yearsBuildings and improvementsFifteen to forty yearsMachinery and equipmentSeven to fifteen yearsComputer and office equipmentThree to seven yearsSoftwareThree yearsOther assetsThree to seven years Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the lease. Assets under capital leases areamortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or the lease term. The Company capitalizes its costs of developing internal software when the software is used as an integral part of its manufacturing or business processes andthe technological feasibility has been established. Internal software costs are amortized over a period of three years and charged to cost of sales and selling,general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in accordance with the project type. Fully depreciated assets are retained in property and accumulated depreciation accounts until they are removed from service. In the case of disposals, assetsand related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the net amounts, less proceeds from disposal, are included in the determination ofnet income and shown in other operating (income) expense, net. Repair and maintenance costs related to PP&E which do not significantly increase the useful life of an existing asset or do not significantly alter, modify orchange the capabilities or production capacity of an existing asset are expensed as incurred. Costs for dismantling, moving, and reinstalling existing equipmentare generally charged as restructuring expenses as incurred. F-11 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) Interest is capitalized when a capital project exceeds certain thresholds and requires a long-term construction period in which to carry out the activitiesnecessary to bring it to the condition and location for its intended use. PP&E is tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such events includechanges in business environment, periods of actual or forecasted losses, or expectations that an asset or asset group will be disposed before the end of itsestimated useful life. Recoverability of PP&E is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset or asset group to the future net undiscountedcash flows expected to be generated. If these comparisons indicate that an asset’s value is not recoverable, the impairment loss recognized is the amount bywhich the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value. When an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount is depreciated over itsremaining useful life. Restoration of a previously recognized impairment loss is not permitted. Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are classified as heldfor sale and are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Depreciation ceases for all assets classified as held for sale. Long-livedassets to be disposed of other than by sale are classified as held for use until they are disposed of. These assets are reported at the lower of carrying amount ortheir estimated fair value. Intangible Assets. Finite-lived intangible assets, such as a customer list and non-compete agreements are amortized over their estimated useful lives. TheCompany periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. Once these assets are fully amortized, they are removed from theaccounts. These assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not berecoverable. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. Debt Financing Fees. The Company capitalizes costs associated with the financing of its debt obligations. These costs are amortized as additional interestexpense following either the effective interest method or the straight-line method. Upon any prepayment of certain of its debt obligations, the Companyaccelerates the recognition of a pro-rata amount of issuance costs and records an extinguishment of debt. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates. The Company evaluates its investments in unconsolidated affiliates whenever events or changes in circumstancesindicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates whether or not the affiliate is able to generate and sustain sufficient earningsand cash flows to justify its carrying value. Derivative Instruments. All derivatives are carried on the balance sheet at fair value and are classified according to their derivative position and the expectedtiming of settlement. On the date the derivative contract is entered into, the Company may designate the derivative into one of the following categories:● Fair value hedge – a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset, liability or a firm commitment. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designatedand qualifying as a fair-value hedge, as well as the offsetting gains and losses on the hedged items, are reported in income in the same period.● Cash flow hedge – a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability.The effective portion of gains and losses on cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), until the underlyingtransactions are recognized in income. When the hedged item is realized, gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensiveincome (loss) to current period earnings on the same line item as the underlying transaction.● Net investment hedge – if a derivative is used as a foreign currency hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, its changes in fair value, to theextent effective as a hedge, are recorded in foreign currency translation adjustments in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Any ineffective portion of designated hedges is immediately recognized in current period earnings. Derivatives that are not designated for hedge accounting aremarked to market at the end of each period with the changes in fair value recognized in current period earnings. Settlements of any fair value or cash flowderivative contracts are classified as cash flows from operating activities; all other settlements are classified as cash flows from financing activities. F-12 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) Fair Value Measurements. The accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputsto valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in anorderly transaction between market participants in the principal market, or if none exists, the most advantageous market, for the specific asset or liability atthe measurement date (the exit price). Fair value is based on assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The hierarchygives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The Company uses the following tomeasure fair value for its assets and liabilities:● Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets● Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either indirectly or directly● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.The classification of assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair valuemeasurement in its entirety. Income Taxes. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. The Company accounts for income taxes using theasset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differencesbetween the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the tax rate expected to be in effect when taxes are settled or realized. A valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Provision is made for taxes onundistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries and related companies to the extent that such earnings are not deemed to be permanently invested. The Company recognizes the financial statement effects of an uncertain income tax position when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, thatthe position will be sustained upon examination by a competent taxing authority. The Company accrues for other tax contingencies when it is probable that aliability to a taxing authority has been incurred and the amount of the contingency can be reasonably estimated. Income tax expense related to penalties andinterest, if incurred, are included in the provision for income taxes. Stock-Based Compensation. Compensation expense for stock awards is based on the grant date fair value and expensed over the applicable vesting period.The Company has a policy of issuing new shares to satisfy share option exercises. For awards with a service condition and a graded vesting schedule, theCompany has elected an accounting policy of recognizing compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separate vestingportion of the award as if the award was, in-substance, multiple awards. Foreign Currency Translation. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar are translated at period-end exchange rates, while income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Translation gains and losses are not included indetermining net income, but are presented in a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and losses areincluded in determining net income and are presented within other operating (income) expense, net. Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when (a) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, (b) the sales price is fixed or determinable,(c) title and the risks of ownership have been transferred to the customer, and (d) collection of the receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue recognition occursprimarily upon shipment. Revenue includes amounts for certain taxes, interest billed to customers, and shipping and handling costs billed to customers.Revenue excludes value-added taxes or other sales taxes and includes any applicable deductions for returns and allowances, yarn claims, and discounts. Cost of Sales. The major components of cost of sales are (a) materials and supplies, (b) labor, utility and overhead costs associated with the manufacturedproducts, (c) cost of products purchased for resale, (d) charges or credits associated with inventory reserves, (e) shipping, handling and warehousing costs,(f) product and research and development costs, and (g) all other costs required to be classified as cost of sales. F-13 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) Shipping, Handling and Warehousing Costs. Shipping, handling and warehousing costs include costs to store goods prior to shipment, prepare goods forshipment and physically move goods from the Company to its customers. These costs are included in cost of sales. Research and Development. Research and development costs include hourly wages and fringe benefit costs, production costs of samples for customers,operating supplies and other miscellaneous costs. The cost of research and development is charged to expense as incurred and is included in cost of sales. TheCompany incurred $2,987, $2,289 and $2,445 of research and development costs during fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. The major components of SG&A expenses are (a) cost of the Company’s sales force and marketing efforts,as well as commissions and credit insurance, (b) costs of maintaining the Company’s general and administrative support functions including, executivemanagement, information technology, human resources, legal, and finance, (c) amortization of intangible assets, and (d) all other costs required to beclassified as SG&A expenses. Severance and Restructuring Charges. The Company records severance related expenses once they are both probable and estimable for severance that is to beprovided under an ongoing benefit arrangement. Other restructuring charges for the relocation of equipment, disposal costs, and other exit costs are generallyexpensed as incurred. Self Insurance. The Company self-insures certain risks such as employee healthcare claims. Reserves for incurred but not recorded healthcare claims areestimated using historical data, the timeliness of claims processing, medical trends, inflation and any changes in the nature or type of the plan. Contingencies. Accruals for estimated losses are recorded at the time information becomes available indicating that losses are probable and that the amountsare reasonably estimable. Any amounts accrued are not discounted. 3. Recent Accounting PronouncementsIn December 2009, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-17, “Consolidations (Topic810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities”. The standard requires reporting entities to evaluate legalentities for consolidation, changes the approach to determining a variable interest entity’s primary beneficiary from a quantitative assessment to a qualitativeassessment designed to identify a controlling financial interest, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine whether an entity is theprimary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The ASU also clarifies, but does not change, the characteristics that identify a VIE and enhancesdisclosures about a company’s involvement in VIEs. The adoption of this standard during fiscal year 2011 did not have a material impact on the Company’sfinancial position or results of operations. In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” which improves the overallpresentation comparability and prominence of items reported in Other Comprehensive Income. The Company has elected to adopt this ASU early and changedthe presentation of the financial statements for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009 accordingly. 4.

Revolving Credit FacilityConcurrent with the issuance of the 2014 notes, the Company amended its senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (“Amended Credit Agreement”)which, along with revising certain terms and covenants, extended its maturity date to May 15, 2011. On September 9, 2010, the Company and theSubsidiary Guarantors (as co-borrowers) entered into the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("First Amended Credit Agreement”)with Bank of America, N.A. (as both Administrative Agent and Lender). The First Amended Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of$100,000 (with the ability of the Company to request that the borrowing capacity be increased up to $150,000) that matures on September 9, 2015. However,if the 2014 notes have not been paid in full on or before February 15, 2014, the maturity date of the Company’s revolving credit facility will be automaticallyadjusted to February 15, 2014. F-18 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) The First Amended Credit Agreement is secured by first-priority liens on the Company’s and its subsidiary guarantors’ inventory, accounts receivable, generalintangibles, investment property and certain other property. The Company’s ability to borrow under the First Amended Credit Agreement is limited to aborrowing base equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory and is subject to other conditions and limitations. Borrowings underthe First Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at rates of LIBOR plus 2.00% to 2.75% and/or prime plus 0.75% to 1.50% depending on the Company’slevel of excess availability. The unused line fee under the First Amended Credit Agreement is 0.375% to 0.50% of the unused line amount. The weightedaverage interest rate for the revolving credit facility borrowings for fiscal year 2011 was 3.8%. The Company has $2,695 of standby letters of credit at June26, 2011, none of which have been drawn on. As of June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010, the Company had $51,734 and $73,879 of borrowing availabilityunder the revolving credit facility. The First Amended Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for asset-based loans that restrict future borrowings and certaintransactions. Such covenants include restrictions and limitations on (i) sales of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution and the issuance of the Company’scapital stock, (ii) permitted encumbrances on the Company’s property, (iii) the incurrence of indebtedness by the Company, (iv) the making of loans orinvestments by the Company, (v) the declaration of dividends and redemptions by the Company and (vi) transactions with affiliates by the Company. So longas pro forma excess availability is at least 27.5% of the total credit facility or, if applicable, other specific conditions are met, the Company can make certaindistributions and investments including (i) the payment or making of any dividend, (ii) the redemption or other acquisition of any of the Company’s capitalstock, (iii) cash investments in joint ventures, (iv) acquisition of the property and assets or capital stock or a business unit of another entity and (v) loans orother investments to a non-borrower subsidiary. The First Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a trailing twelve month fixed chargecoverage ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0 should borrowing availability decrease below 15% of the total credit facility. There are no capital expenditure limitationsunder the First Amended Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at June 26, 2011.

(“UDB”). During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company changed the assertion related to the future repatriation ofUDB earnings and profits by an additional $10,630. The Company has established a deferred tax liability, net of estimated foreign tax credit, ofapproximately $3,854 related to the additional income tax that would be due as a result of the current plan to repatriate earnings in future periods. TheCompany repatriated current foreign earnings of $5,909 and $5,159 during fiscal years 2011 and 2010, respectively, for which the Company recorded anaccrual of the related federal income taxes. All remaining undistributed earnings are deemed to be indefinitely reinvested and accordingly, no provision for U.S.federal and state income taxes is required to be provided thereon. As of June 26, 2011, there was $75,635 of accumulated and undistributed foreign earnings. Deferred income taxes have been provided for the temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets andliabilities. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred taxassets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in whichthose temporary differences reverse. Management considers the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback periods,projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The Company currently has a full valuation allowance against its netdeferred tax assets in the U.S. and certain foreign subsidiaries due to negative evidence concerning the realization of those deferred tax assets in recent years. Asresults of operations improve, the Company continues to evaluate both positive and negative evidence to determine whether and when the valuation allowance,or a portion thereof, should be released. A release of the valuation allowance could have a material effect on earnings in the period of release.

In fiscal year 2010, the valuation allowance decreased $130primarily as a result of a decrease in temporary differences and the expiration of state income tax credit carryforwards which were offset by an increase infederal net operating loss carryforwards. In fiscal year 2009, the valuation allowance increased $20,293 primarily as a result of the increase in federal netoperating loss carryforwards and the impairment of goodwill. As of June 26, 2011, the Company has $47,970 of federal net operating loss carryforwards and $44,325 of state net operating loss carryforwards that maybe used to offset future taxable income. The Company has approximately $1,542 of assorted Federal credit carryforwards, and $511 of North Carolinainvestment tax credit carryforwards, the deferred income tax effects of which, are fully offset by valuation allowances.

Recognition of $869 of previously unrecognized tax benefits in foreign tax jurisdictions would impact theCompany’s effective tax rate. The gross amount of penalty and interest accrued during fiscal year ended June 26, 2011 was $538. The Company did not accrue interest or penalties relatedto uncertain tax positions during fiscal years 2010 or 2009. The Company is subject to income tax examinations for U.S. federal income taxes for fiscal years 2005 through 2011, for non-U.S. income taxes for tax years2001 through 2011, and for state and local income taxes for fiscal years 2001 through 2011. During fiscal year 2009, the Internal Revenue Service completedtheir examination of the Company's return for fiscal year 2006. The examination resulted in a $349 reduction in the net operating loss carryforward, but didnot impact the amount of tax the Company reported on its return. 15. Shareholders’ EquityOn October 27, 2010, the shareholders of the Company approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock (the “reverse stock split”) at a ratio of1-for-3. The reverse stock split became effective November 3, 2010. The Company had 20,060 shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediatelyfollowing the completion of the reverse stock split. The Company is authorized in its Restated Certificate of Incorporation to issue up to a total of 500,000shares of common stock at a $0.10 par value per share which was unchanged by the amendment. All share and per share amounts have been retroactivelyadjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. No dividends were paid in the last three fiscal years. The Indenture governing the 2014 notes and the Company’s First Amended Credit Agreement restricts itsability to pay dividends or make distributions on its common stock. Effective July 26, 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to 3,333 shares of its common stock of whichapproximately 1,044 shares were subsequently repurchased. The repurchase program was suspended in November 2003 and the Company has no immediateplans to reinstitute the program. There is remaining authority for the Company to repurchase approximately 2,289 shares of its common stock under therepurchase plan. The repurchase plan has no stated expiration or termination date. On November 25, 2009, the Company agreed to purchase 628 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $7.95 per share from Invemed CatalystFund, L.P. (based on an approximate 10% discount to the closing price of the common stock on November 24, 2009). The purchase of the shares was notpursuant to the Company’s stock repurchase plan. The transaction closed on November 30, 2009 at a total purchase price of $4,995. 16. Stock Options and Stock AwardsOn October 29, 2008, the shareholders of the Company approved the 2008 Unifi, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan”). The2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan authorized the issuance of up to 2,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the grant or exercise of stock options, includingincentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock, but not more than 1,000 shares may be issued as restricted stock. Option awards aregranted with an exercise price not less than the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. The 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan replaced the1999 Unifi, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (“1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan”). The 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan is the Company’s sole share-basedcompensation plan, except that prior grants under the 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan remain subject to that plan’s provisions.

The fair value and related compensation expense were calculated as of the issuance date using the Black-Scholes model for awards granted in fiscalyear 2010, which contain graded vesting provisions based on a continuous service condition. A Monte Carlo model was used for awards granted in fiscal year2009, which contain vesting provisions subject to market conditions. The stock option valuation models used the following assumptions for fiscal years2011, 2010 and 2009: 2011 2010 2009Expected term (years) — 5.5 7.9Interest rate — 2.8% 3.7%Volatility — 63.6% 63.6%Dividend yield — — — The Company uses historical data to estimate the expected life, volatility, and estimated forfeitures of an option. The risk-free interest rate for the expected termof the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Monte Carlo model simulates future stock movements in order todetermine the fair value of the option grant and derived service period. During fiscal year 2010, the Compensation Committee (“Committee”) of the Board authorized the issuance of 567 stock options from the 2008 Long-TermIncentive Plan to certain key employees and certain members of the Board. The stock options have a service condition, vest ratably over a three year period,and have ten year contractual terms. The Company used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the weighted-average grant date fair value of $3.34 per share. During fiscal year 2009, the Committee authorized the issuance of 93 stock options from the 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan to certain key employees. Thestock options are subject to a market condition which vests the options on the date that the closing price of the Company’s common stock shall have been atleast $18 per share for thirty consecutive trading days. The exercise price is $12.48 per share which was equal to the market price of the Company’s stock onthe grant date. The Company used a Monte Carlo stock option model to estimate the grant date fair value of $7.47 per share and the derived vesting period of1.2 years. These options have ten year contractual terms. At June 26, 2011, the Company has 636 and 1,056 shares reserved for the options that remain outstanding under grants from the 2008 Long-Term IncentivePlan and the 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan, respectively.

The calculation of diluted earnings per common share presents the effect of all potential dilutive common shares that were outstanding during therespective period, unless the effect of doing so is anti-dilutive. 19. Derivative Instruments and Hedging ActivitiesFollowing its established procedures and controls, the Company may use derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts orinterest rate swaps primarily for purposes of reducing its ongoing business exposures to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates. TheCompany does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes. Interest rate swaps:On February 15, 2011, the Company entered into a twenty-seven month, $25,000 interest rate swap with Bank of America, N.A. to provide a hedge againstthe variability of cash flows (monthly interest expense payments) on the first $25,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate borrowings under the Company’srevolving credit facility. The interest rate swap allows the Company to fix the LIBOR rate at 1.39%. The Company has designated the swap as a cash flowhedge and determined that the hedge has been and still is highly effective. The amount of loss recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) forthe Company’s cash flow hedge derivative instrument was $408 for fiscal year 2011. There were no cash flow hedges for fiscal years 2010 and 2009. For thefiscal year ended June 26, 2011, the Company did not reclassify any gains (losses) from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income and does notexpect to do so during the next twelve months. Foreign currency forward contracts:The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges for exposures related to certain sales, inventory purchases and equipmentpurchases denominated in currencies that are not the functional currency of certain entities. As of June 26, 2011, the latest maturity date for all outstandingforeign currency forward contracts is during September 2011. These items are not designated as hedges by the Company and are marked to market eachperiod and offset by the foreign exchange gains (losses) resulting from the underlying exposures of the foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

The Company attempts to minimize this risk byselecting counterparties with investment grade credit ratings, limiting its exposure to any single counterparty and regularly monitoring its market position witheach counter party. The Company’s derivative instruments do not contain any credit-risk related contingent features. 20. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Non-Financial Assets and LiabilitiesAs of June 26, 2011, the Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Thefollowing tables present the level within the fair value hierarchy used to measure certain financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurringbasis:As of June 26, 2011: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Liabilities at fair value: Derivatives related to foreign exchange contracts $— $(2) $— Derivatives related to interest rate swaps — (408) — Total liabilities at fair value $— $(410) $— There were no financial instruments measured at fair value that were in an asset position at June 26, 2011.As of June 27, 2010: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets at fair value: Derivatives related to foreign exchange contracts $— $14 $— Total assets at fair value $— $14 $— Liabilities at fair value: Derivatives related to foreign exchange contracts $— $(47) $— Total liabilities at fair value $— $(47) $— The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value as of June 26, 2011 andJune 27, 2010 because of their short-term nature. The carrying amount of the revolving credit facility approximated fair value as of June 26, 2011 and June27, 2010 because the facility has a floating interest rate. The fair value of the Company’s 2014 notes is based on their most recent traded prices and isconsidered a Level 2 measurement. The estimated fair values and carrying amounts outstanding, including any current portions, as of June 26, 2011 andJune 27, 2010 are presented as follows: F-28 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) 2011 2010 2014 notes – estimated fair value $138,402 $184,084 2014 notes – carrying amount 133,722 178,722 21.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates and Variable Interest EntitiesParkdale America, LLCIn June 1997, the Company and Parkdale Mills, Inc. (“Mills”) entered into a Contribution Agreement that set forth the terms and conditions by which the twocompanies contributed all of the assets of their spun cotton yarn operations utilizing open-end and air-jet spinning technologies to create Parkdale America,LLC (“PAL”). In exchange for its contribution, the Company received a 34% ownership interest in PAL which is accounted for using the equity method ofaccounting. PAL’s fiscal year end is the Saturday nearest to December 31 and is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for income tax reportingpurposes. PAL is a producer of cotton and synthetic yarns for sale to the textile and apparel markets located throughout North and South America. PAL has 14manufacturing facilities located primarily in North Carolina. For its most recently completed fiscal year, PAL’s five largest customers accounted forapproximately 80% of total gross sales and 75% of total gross accounts receivable outstanding. In August 2008, a ten year federal government program commenced providing economic adjustment assistance to domestic users of upland cotton. The cottonsubsidy is for cotton consumed in domestic production and the subsidy is paid the month after the eligible cotton is consumed. The subsidy must be usedwithin eighteen months after the marketing year earned to purchase qualifying capital expenditures in the U.S. for production of goods from upland cotton.The marketing year is from August 1 to July 31. The program provides a subsidy of four cents per pound during the first four years and three cents perpound for the next six years. The Company recognizes its share of PAL’s income for the cotton subsidy when the cotton has been consumed and the qualifyingassets have been acquired with an appropriate allocation methodology considering the dual criteria of the subsidy. During the Company’s fiscal years 2011,2010 and 2009, PAL received $28,795, $22,342 and $14,027 of subsidy payments under the program, respectively. In accordance with the program’sprovisions and criteria, the Company has recorded its 34% share of PAL’s earnings under the program, amounting to $13,252, $5,777 and $2,109,respectively. On October 28, 2009, PAL acquired certain real property and machinery and equipment, as well as entered into lease agreements for real property andmachinery and equipment, that constitute most of the yarn manufacturing operations of Hanesbrands Inc. (“HBI”) for a purchase price of approximatelytwenty three million dollars. PAL also entered into a yarn supply agreement with HBI to supply at least 95% of the yarn used in the manufacturing of itsapparel products at any of its locations in North America, Central America, or the Caribbean Basin for a six-year period with an option for HBI to extend fortwo additional three-year periods. On March 30, 2011, PAL amended its revolving credit facility to increase the maximum borrowing capacity from one hundred million to two hundred milliondollars and extend the maturity date from October 28, 2012 to July 31, 2014. PAL’s revolving credit facility charges a variable interest rate based on either theprime rate or LIBOR rate plus an applicable percentage. PAL’s revolving credit facility also has covenants in place such as the annual limit on capitalexpenditures, a minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio and a minimum leverage ratio. As of June 2011, PAL’s outstanding borrowings on the revolving creditfacility were one hundred forty five million dollars and PAL was in compliance with all debt covenants. F-29 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) PAL is subject to price risk related to fixed-price yarn sales. To protect the gross margin of these sales, PAL enters into cotton futures to manage changes in rawmaterial costs. PAL’s derivative instruments are listed and traded on an exchange and are thus valued using quoted prices classified within Level 1 of the fairvalue hierarchy. PAL designates certain futures contracts as cash flow hedges with the effective portion of gains and losses recorded in accumulated othercomprehensive income until the underlying transactions are recognized in income. As of June 2011, PAL’s accumulated other comprehensive income wascomprised of losses related to futures contracts totaling $1,900. All of PAL’s other derivatives not designated as hedges or the ineffective portion of anydesignated hedges are marked to market each period with the changes in fair value recognized in current period earnings. In addition, PAL may enter intoforward contracts for certain cotton purchases, which qualify as derivative instruments. However, these contracts meet the applicable criteria to qualify for the“normal purchases or normal sales” exemption. As of June 26, 2011, the Company’s investment in PAL was $82,955 and shown within investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the ConsolidatedBalance Sheets. The reconciliation between the Company’s share of the underlying equity of PAL and its investment consist of the following: Underlying equity as of June 2011 $101,832 Initial excess capital contributions 53,363 Impairment charge recorded in 2007 (74,106)Anti-trust lawsuit against PAL in which the Company did not participate 2,652 EAP adjustments (786)Investment as of June 2011 $82,955 For the 2011, 2010 and 2009 fiscal years, dividends received by the Company from PAL were $4,500, $3,265, and $3,688, respectively. U.N.F. Industries, Ltd.In September 2000, the Company and Nilit Ltd. (“Nilit”) formed a 50/50 joint venture, U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”), for the purpose of operating nylonextrusion assets to manufacture nylon POY. UNF’s three manufacturing lines are located at Nilit’s production facilities in Migdal Ha-Emek, Israel. All rawmaterial and production services for UNF are provided by Nilit under a separate services agreement. All first quality production units are sold to theCompany. UNF’s fiscal year end is December 31st and is a registered Israeli private company. UNF America, LLCIn October 2009, the Company and Nilit America Inc. formed a 50/50 joint venture, UNF America LLC (“UNF America”), for the purpose of operating anylon extrusion facility which manufactures nylon POY. UNF America’s production facilities are located in Ridgeway, Virginia and are operated by NilitAmerica. All raw material and production services for UNF America are provided by Nilit America under a separate services agreement. All first qualityproduction units are sold to the Company. UNF America’s fiscal year end is December 31st and is a limited liability company treated as a partnership forincome tax reporting purposes. In conjunction with the formation of UNF America, the Company entered into a supply agreement with UNF and UNF America whereby the Company agreedto purchase all of its first quality nylon POY requirements for texturing (subject to certain exceptions) from either UNF or UNF America. However, theagreement has no stated minimum purchase quantities. Pricing under this supply agreement is negotiated every six months, based on market rates. As of June26, 2011 the Company’s open purchase orders related to this agreement were $21,699. F-30 Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsFiscal Years ended June 26, 2011, June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts) The Company’s raw material purchases under this supply agreement for fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009 consist of the following: 2011 2010 2009 UNF $18,698 $14,848 $17,400 UNF America 17,570 9,314 — Total $36,268 $24,162 $17,400 As of June 2011, the Company’s combined investments in UNF and UNF America were $3,789 and shown within investments in unconsolidated affiliatesin the consolidated balance sheets. For 2011, combined dividends received by the Company from UNF and UNF America were $1,400. In addition, theCompany received a $500 return of capital from UNF America during 2011. There were no dividends received during fiscal years 2010 or 2009. The financial results of UNF and UNF America are included in the Company’s financial statements with a one month lag, using the equity method ofaccounting and with intercompany profits eliminated in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy. As of June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010, theCompany had combined outstanding accounts payable due to UNF and UNF America of $4,124 and $4,554, respectively. Upon the adoption of ASU No.2009-17, the Company determined UNF and UNF America are VIEs, the Company is the primary beneficiary and, under U.S. GAAP, the Company shouldconsolidate the two entities. As the Company purchases substantially all the output from the two entities, and, as the two entities’ balance sheets constitute lessthan 2.0% of the Company’s current assets, total assets and total liabilities, the Company has not included the accounts of UNF and UNF America in itsconsolidated financial statements. Other than the supply agreement discussed above, the Company does not provide any other commitments or guaranteesrelated to either UNF or UNF America. Repreve Renewables, LLCIn April 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with two other unaffiliated entities to form Repreve Renewables, LLC (“Renewables”) and received a40% ownership interest for its four million dollar contribution. Renewables is a development stage enterprise formed to cultivate, grow and sell biomass crops,including crop feedstock intended for use as a fuel in the production of energy as well as to provide value added processes for cultivating, harvesting or usingbiomass crops. Renewables has the exclusive license to commercialize FREEDOM™ Giant Miscanthus (“FGM”). FGM is a miscanthus grass strain used toconvert sunlight to biomass energy. Renewables’ success will depend in part on its ability to license individual growers to produce FGM and sell feedstock tothose growers. Renewables has generated net losses since inception and its members have agreed to make ongoing capital contributions to the extent required to continueRenewables’ business. Through June 2011, the Company has made $1,117 of additional capital contributions since inception for its share of working capitaland on-going operating costs. The Company has determined Renewables is a VIE but the Company is not the primary beneficiary and therefore it does not need to be consolidated. As ofJune 26, 2011, the Company’s investment in Renewables was $4,514, is shown within investment in unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated balancesheets, and represents the Company’s maximum exposure to loss. Condensed balance sheet information as of June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010 and condensed income statement information for fiscal years ended 2011, 2010and 2009 for the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates are presented in the tables that follow.

Restructuring and SeveranceRestructuringOn January 11, 2010, the Company announced the creation of Unifi Central America, Ltda. de C.V. (“UCA”). With a base of operations established in ElSalvador, UCA serves customers primarily in the Central American region. The Company began dismantling and relocating polyester equipment from itsYadkinville, North Carolina facility to the region during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 and completed the startup of the UCA manufacturing facility inthe second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The Company incurred $948 and $770 in polyester equipment relocation costs during fiscal years 2011 and 2010,respectively. In addition, the Company incurred $628 for costs of reinstalling idle texturing equipment to replace the manufacturing capacity in itsYadkinville, North Carolina facility in fiscal year 2011. These costs were charged to restructuring expense as incurred. SeveranceDuring fiscal year 2008, the Company recorded severance for its former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and former Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”).

Impairment ChargesImpairment of long-lived assetsDuring fiscal year 2009, the Company determined that a review of the remaining assets held for sale located in Kinston, North Carolina was necessary as aresult of sales negotiations. The cash flow projections related to these assets were based on the expected sales proceeds, which were estimated based on thecurrent status of negotiations with a potential buyer. As a result of this review, the Company determined that the carrying value of the assets exceeded the fairvalue and recorded $350 in non-cash impairment charges related to these assets. During fiscal year 2010, the Company completed the disposal of the assetsheld for sale in Kinston, North Carolina and based on the contract price; the Company recorded an additional $100 non-cash impairment charge. Goodwill ImpairmentBased on a decline in its market capitalization during fiscal year 2009 and difficult market conditions, the Company determined that it was appropriate to re-evaluate the carrying value of its goodwill. Projected cash flows were based on the Company’s forecasts of volume, with consideration of relevant industry andrecent macroeconomic trends. The fair value of the domestic polyester reporting unit was determined based upon a combination of a discounted cash flowanalysis and a market approach utilizing market multiples of “guideline” publicly traded companies. As a result of the findings, the Company determined thatthe goodwill was impaired and recorded an impairment charge of $18,580 in fiscal year 2009.

(“INVISTA”). The land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99 year ground lease (“Ground Lease”) with DuPont. Since 1993,DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up the Kinston site under the supervision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the NorthCarolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (“DENR”) pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Corrective Action program.The Corrective Action program requires DuPont to identify all potential areas of environmental concern (“AOCs”), assess the extent of containment at theidentified AOCs and clean it up to comply with applicable regulatory standards. Effective March 20, 2008, the Company entered into a Lease TerminationAgreement associated with conveyance of certain assets at Kinston to DuPont. This agreement terminated the Ground Lease and relieved the Company of anyfuture responsibility for environmental remediation, other than participation with DuPont, if so called upon, with regard to the Company’s period of operationof the Kinston site. However, the Company continues to own a satellite service facility acquired in the INVISTA transaction that has contamination fromDuPont’s operations and is monitored by DENR. This site has been remediated by DuPont and DuPont has received authority from DENR to discontinueremediation, other than natural attenuation. DuPont’s duty to monitor and report to DENR will be transferred to the Company in the future, at which timeDuPont must pay the Company for seven years of monitoring and reporting costs and the Company will assume responsibility for any future remediation andmonitoring of the site. At this time, the Company has no basis to determine if and when it will have any responsibility or obligation with respect to the AOCsor the extent of any potential liability for the same. Purchase ObligationsThe table below presents the Company’s future purchase obligations entered into in the ordinary course of business that are covered under an agreement (thatspecifies all significant terms, price provisions, and timing) to purchase goods or services that is enforceable and legally binding.2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Thereafter Total $17,560 $14,181 $7,348 $545 $227 $— $39,861 The purchase obligations primarily consist of utility, software, and other service agreements. Unconditional Purchase ObligationsCertain of the Company’s manufacturing operations are a party to unconditional purchase obligations for commitments for certain defined levels of utilityresources. The Company expects to take delivery of and to use these resources within the defined time periods and in the normal course of business. Thesecommitments qualify as normal purchases. The payments to be made as part of these commitments are included within the purchase obligation table aboveand are separately shown below:2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Thereafter Total $16,288 $14,098 $7,265 $545 $227 $— $38,423 For fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009, utility costs incurred under these commitments consisted of the following: 2011 2010 2009 Utility costs for unconditional purchase obligations $34,677 $33,070 $28,794 LitigationThe Company is aware of certain claims against it for the alleged use of non-compliant “Berry Amendment” nylon POY in yarns that the Company soldwhich may have ultimately been used to manufacture certain U.S. military garments (the “Military Claims”). Although the Company believes it has certainpotential defenses to the claims, the estimate of possible losses, before considering any potential salvage values for the garments, ranges from $200 to $2,100.The Company has appropriately accrued for this contingency. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate may differ from the actual claim amount;however, the Company believes any change would not be material to the financial statements.

Business Segment InformationThe Company processes and sells multi-filament polyester and nylon yarns for a wide range of end-uses. The Company operates ten manufacturing sites, haslocations in five countries and has over one thousand customers. Periodically, the Company evaluates the factors used to identify its operating and reportablesegments. The following recent developments and other factors were considered:● The Company’s expansion efforts in El Salvador;● The recent and expected growth for the Company’s Asian operation;● The on-going emphasis and evolution of the Company’s premium value-added product portfolio;● The various strategic capital investments such as the Company’s new recycling center;● The information reviewed by and the frequency of review by its chief operating decision maker;● The Company’s current views for the markets in which it participates as well as the expected and potential impacts of various regional tradeagreements on these markets and the Company’s customers therein; and● The Company’s current organizational and operating structure. Based on this analysis, the Company now has three operating segments which are also its reportable segments. The Company’s segments are Polyester, Nylonand International. The Company has separated its previously reportable Polyester segment into the new reportable Polyester and International segments. Thisseparation had no effect on the Company’s previously reported consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company hasreclassified historical amounts to conform to the current segment presentation. Each reportable segment derives its revenues as follows:● The polyester segment manufactures recycled Chip, POY, textured, dyed, twisted and beamed yarns with sales to other yarn manufacturers,knitters and weavers that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, automotive upholstery, hosiery, home furnishings, industrial and other end-use markets. The polyester segment consists of manufacturing operations in the U.S. and El Salvador.● The nylon segment manufactures textured nylon and covered spandex products with sales to knitters and weavers that produce fabric for theapparel, hosiery, sock and other end-use markets. The nylon segment consists of manufacturing operations in the U.S. and Colombia.● The international segment’s products include textured polyester and resale yarns. The international segment sells its yarns to knitters and weaversthat produce fabric for the apparel, automotive upholstery, home furnishings, industrial and other end-use markets primarily in the SouthAmerican and Asian regions. The segment includes manufacturing and sales offices in Brazil and a sales office in China. The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based upon Segment Adjusted Profit which is defined as segment gross profit plus segmentdepreciation and amortization less segment SG&A. Segment operating profit represents segment net sales less cost of sales, restructuring and impairmentcharges and selling, general and administrative expenses. The accounting policies for the segments are consistent with the Company’s accountingpolicies. Intersegment sales are accounted for at current market prices.
