Item 8.01 Other Events

Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 permits an individual who is not then in possession of material nonpublic information to establish a prearranged plan to buy or sell stock. The rule allows an individual to buy or sell shares of stock at a specific price in the future, regardless of any subsequent material nonpublic information.

Under the plan, Paul Arling, chairman and chief executive officer, intends to exercise up to 40,000 employee stock options, which are set to expire in January 2009, and to immediately sell the underlying shares of UEI common stock beginning immediately and continuing from time to time until the expiration date of the options, subject to the market price of our common stock. This process will facilitate the orderly exercise of employee stock options and the sale of common stock for personal financial planning purposes with the goal of minimizing any market impact and avoiding any concerns about the timing of the transactions.

In addition, outside of this plan, Arling intends to exercise up to 12,800 employee stock options which are also set to expire in January 2009 and hold the underlying shares of Universal Electronics Inc. common stock.
