Item 8.01.   Other Events
     On November 4, 2010, Hanesbrands Inc. (“Hanesbrands”) issued a press release announcing that it is planning to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $750 million of senior notes due 2020.
     Hanesbrands intends to use the net proceeds from the notes offering to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under its existing senior secured credit facility, as well as to pay fees and expenses related to these transactions.
     The notes will be offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
     A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
     This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the notes, nor shall there be any sale of the notes in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale is unlawful. Any offers of the notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum.
     Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including those regarding the proposed offering of securities and the anticipated use of proceeds therefrom. These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this report and are based on Hanesbrands’ current intent, beliefs, plans and expectations. They involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual future results, performance or developments to differ materially from those described in or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include the risks identified from time to time in Hanesbrands’ most recent Securities and Exchange Commission reports, including the 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, registration statements, press releases and other communications. Hanesbrands undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, other than as required by law.
