Item 8.01  Other Events

As reported in its Form 8-K dated December 2, 2008, Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Membership Interests Purchase Agreement, made as of November 28, 2008 (the “Agreement”) with Tampa Farm Service, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Seller”), TFS Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation, and Michael H. Bynum, Blair M. Bynum and Samuel G. Bynum (collectively, the “Shareholders”).  The Seller has for many years been engaged directly, and through Okeechobee Egg Company Inc., an affiliated Florida corporation, and through Seller’s other “Affiliates,” as defined in the Agreement, in the production, grading, packaging and distribution of shell eggs and related activities, including the production and milling of feed for laying hens and pullets (the “Seller’s Business”).  The Seller is based in Dover, Florida, and conducts business in the southeastern United States.
 
To facilitate the sale of the Seller’s Business, under the terms of the Agreement, the Seller conveyed all of its assets, but none of its liabilities, to Tampa Farms, LLC (“Tampa Farms”), a Florida limited liability company.  On December 11, 2008, the transaction was completed and the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Tampa Farms, which now is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
