ITEM 5.03.

AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.

 

On July 23, 2014, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Unifi, Inc. (the “Registrant”), upon consideration of and pursuant to the recommendation by the Board’s Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, and in accordance with Section 7.09 of the Registrant’s Restated By-Laws (the “Bylaws”), adopted the following amendments (the “Amendments”) to the Bylaws:

 

 

Section 1.11 of the Bylaws was amended to change the voting standard for the election of directors from plurality voting to a majority of votes cast standard in uncontested director elections. Directors will continue to be elected by a plurality vote standard in contested elections where the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected. Section 2.03 of the Bylaws was amended to provide that an existing director nominee who is not reelected shall be deemed to have tendered to the Board his or her resignation as a director, with the Board having authority to determine the timing of accepting the resignation in light of potential governance considerations pending the election of his or her successor.

 

 

A new Section 1.13 was added to the Bylaws to implement advanced notice requirements for shareholder proposals in connection with the Registrant’s annual meetings of shareholders. The advance notice provision requires written notification to the Secretary of the Registrant of any such proposal no earlier than 120 days, and no later than 90 days, prior to the first anniversary of the Registrant’s immediately preceding annual meeting of shareholders (with adjustments if no such prior meeting was held, or if the date for the upcoming meeting is significantly different from such prior meeting) and certain representations and information regarding the shareholder making the proposal and, if applicable, information regarding any director nominee included in a proposal.

 

 

Refining or clarifying revisions or additions to other Bylaw provisions in connection with the above Amendments (Sections 2.03 and 2.04) or to make certain technical corrections to the Bylaws (Sections 1.14, 2.05(a), 3.01 and 3.04).

 

The foregoing description of the Amendments does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amendments, which are included as Exhibit 3.1 to this report. In addition, the complete Bylaws, as amended and in effect on the date hereof, are included as Exhibit 3.2 to this report.
