<U>Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm</U>. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Deloitte&nbsp;&amp; Touche LLP (&#147;Deloitte&#148;) was dismissed as the independent
registered public accounting firm of II-VI Incorporated (&#147;II-VI&#148;), effective January&nbsp;3, 2008. The decision to dismiss Deloitte was made by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of II-VI (the &#147;Audit Committee&#148;)
following a process it undertook to consider the selection of II-VI&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm for II-VI&#146;s fiscal year ending June&nbsp;30, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Deloitte&#146;s reports on II-VI&#146;s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended June&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified
or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except as follows: Deloitte&#146;s report on the consolidated financial statements of II-VI for the fiscal year ended June&nbsp;30, 2006 contained a separate paragraph stating that
&#147;As discussed in Note A to the Consolidated Financial Statements, effective July&nbsp;1, 2005, the Company changed its method of accounting for share-based compensation.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During the fiscal years ended June&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006, and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, there were no: (a)&nbsp;disagreements between II-VI and Deloitte on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Deloitte&#146;s satisfaction, would have caused Deloitte to make reference to the subject matter thereof in connection
with its reports on the consolidated financial statements of II-VI for such years; or (b)&nbsp;reportable events, as described under Item&nbsp;304(a)(1)(v) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K (&#147;Regulation S-K&#148;).
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As previously reported in II-VI&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June&nbsp;30, 2006, II-VI concluded that, as of June&nbsp;30,
2006, a material weakness existed relating to II-VI&#146;s lack of internal expertise and resulting failure to properly execute control procedures designed to evaluate the annual testing for impairment of goodwill for II-VI&#146;s Military Infrared
Optics business unit as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;142 &#147;Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets&#148; and that, as a result of such material weakness, II-VI did not maintain effective internal control over
financial reporting. Because of the material weakness at June&nbsp;30, 2006, Deloitte expressed an unqualified opinion on management&#146;s assessment of the effectiveness of II-VI&#146;s internal control over financial reporting, but an adverse
opinion on the effectiveness of II-VI&#146;s internal control over financial reporting in its report for the year ended June&nbsp;30, 2006. However, as previously reported in II-VI&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June&nbsp;30,
2007, II-VI concluded that, as of June&nbsp;30, 2007, it had effectively remediated the material weakness related to controls over the annual testing for impairment of goodwill due to certain personnel completing additional training related to
evaluating impairment of goodwill, II-VI&#146;s enhanced review procedures for the annual testing for impairment of goodwill and the successful testing results of operating effectiveness of these remediation steps. Deloitte expressed an unqualified
opinion on management&#146;s assessment of the effectiveness of II-VI&#146;s internal control over financial reporting and an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of II-VI&#146;s internal control over financial reporting in its report for the
year ended June&nbsp;30, 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>
