ITEM 2.06.  MATERIAL IMPAIRMENTS

          Unifi, Inc. (the "Company") previously announced an initiative to improve the efficiency of its nylon business unit.  In connection with this initiative, the Company determined to offer for sale a plant, a warehouse and a central distribution center, all of which are located in Mayodan, North Carolina.  Pursuant to this determination, the Company received certified appraisals relating to the three properties and performed an impairment review in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144").  The Company completed the impairment review on October 11, 2005.  The Company evaluated the recoverability of these long-lived assets and determined that the carrying amount of one of the properties exceeded its fair value. Accordingly, the Company has determined that an impairment charge of approximately $1,500,000, which includes $200,000 of estimated selling costs that will be paid from the proceeds of the sale of such impaired property, will be required in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The Company does not expect this charge to result in any future cash expenditures.
