Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

(a) – (b)

On October 15, 2007, effective immediately, W. Chester Evans, III notified the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. (the "Company") of his decision to resign from the Board. Pursuant to Marketplace Rules 4350(c)(1) and 4350(d)(2)(A) of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ"), the Board must be comprised of a majority of independent directors and the Audit Committee must be comprised of at least three members who satisfy certain criteria. Immediately following Mr. Evans’ resignation, however, the Board consisted of four independent directors and four non-independent directors and the Audit Committee, on which Mr. Evans had served prior to his resignation, consisted of two members. Although NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 4350(c)(1) and 4350(d)(4)(B) provide the Company with a period to "cure" the non-compliance, the resignation of Mr. Evans caused the Company to currently be in non-compliance with the aforementioned NASDAQ listing standards. According ly, on October 16, 2007, the Company notified NASDAQ that it did not comply with the requirements of NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 4350(c)(1) and 4350(d)(2)(A) as a result of Mr. Evans’ resignation. On October 17, 2007, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ, dated October 17, 2007, that confirmed this non-compliance as well as the availability of the cure period. Although the cure period extends to (i) the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting or October 15, 2008, or (ii) if the next annual shareholders' meeting is held before April 14, 2008, no later than April 14, 2008, the Board intends to immediately begin a search process to replace Mr. Evans and regain compliance with the aforementioned NASDAQ listing standards.





Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(b)

On October 15, 2007, effective immediately, W. Chester Evans, III notified the Board of Directors of Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. of his decision to resign from the Board.
