Explanation of pro forma adjustments:
(1) The  pro  forma  adjustments  to the Statements  of  Income  for  the
  contribution  of Unifi's spun cotton yarn operations to the LLC  include  only
  those  revenues  and direct operating expenses associated with such  business.
  In  addition  to  the  direct manufacturing and direct  selling,  general  and
  administrative  expenses eliminated in (2) below, Unifi on a historical  basis
  had  allocated $7.8 million and $11.3 million of such corporate costs  to  the
  spun  yarn operations for the nine months ended March 30, 1997 and fiscal year
  ended  June 30, 1996, respectively.  These corporate allocated costs have  not
  been included in the pro forma adjustments, however Management of Unifi is  in
  the  process  of implementing a formal plan that should eliminate  certain  of
  these  costs.  A reasonable estimate of these cost reductions is not currently
  available.
(2) To  record the elimination of revenues and direct manufacturing costs
  and  direct selling, general and administrative expenses associated  with  the
  contribution of Unifi's spun yarn operations to the LLC.
(3) To  reduce  the interest expense at the rate of 5.85%  for  the  nine
  months ended March 30, 1997 and 5.63% for the fiscal year ended June 30,  1996
  related  to  the  $23.5  million of Unifi debt assumed  by  the  LLC,  net  of
  additional required borrowings of $9.95 million.
(4) To reflect Unifi's 34.0% ownership equity in the pro forma earnings of
  the  LLC.   The pro forma earnings of the LLC for the nine months ended  March
  30,  1997  and  the  fiscal year ended June 30, 1996  combine  the  historical
  operating results of the Unifi spun yarn business for the respective nine  and
  twelve  month  periods with the historical operating results of  the  open-end
  and  air jet spinning business of Parkdale for the nine months ended June  30,
  1997  and  the  year  ended  September 30,  1996,  respectively,  net  of  the
  amortization  of  the  excess  of  Unifi's investment  in  the  LLC  over  the
  underlying net assets.
(5) For purposes of the pro forma adjustments, the statutory rate of 39.5% is used in the provision for income
 tax calculations.
