<P ALIGN="CENTER">JDS Uniphase Revises Outlook</P>
<I><FONT SIZE=3><P ALIGN="CENTER"></P>
</B></I><P>&nbsp;</P>
<B><P>Ottawa, Canada and San Jose, California - June 14, 2001</B> <B>- </B>JDS
Uniphase Corporation (Nasdaq: JDSU and TSE: JDU) today revised its outlook for
the current and forthcoming quarter.</P>
<P>The Company anticipates sales for its fourth quarter ending June 30, 2001
will be approximately $600 million as compared to earlier guidance of $700
million.  This revised outlook reflects continued weakness in telecommunications
carrier spending and inventory reductions by the Company's system provider
customers. </P>
<P>JDS Uniphase anticipates sales of $450 million for its first quarter of
fiscal 2002 ending September 29, 2001.  The Company is carefully reviewing its
expense structure in connection with the preparation of its fiscal 2002
operating plan to determine the changes, including additional charges under the
Company's previously announced Global Realignment Plan, required to respond to
this revised sales forecast.  The Company is not providing guidance for later
periods at this time.</P>
<P>The lowered sales forecast will cause the Company to record inventory write-
downs in its fourth quarter ending June 30, 2001.  The Company reserves
inventory amounts for specific components and modules with on hand balances in
excess of six months' supply, and the lowered forecast will require an increase
in excess inventory reserves of $225 to $250 million.  The inventory write-downs
are expected to result in a fourth quarter pro forma loss of $0.06 to $0.08 per
share after exclusion of merger &amp; acquisition related charges and charges
resulting from the Company's Global Realignment Program.  Absent the inventory
write-downs, the Company anticipates such pro forma results would be
profitable.</P>
<P>&quot;The business downturn has been rapid, steep and unprecedented, and the
continuing lack of visibility from our customers suggests to us that a cautious
outlook continues to be warranted for the short term," stated Jozef Straus, Co-
chairman, President and CEO.  &quot;At present, order levels clearly reflect
lower carrier capital spending and the resulting desire of our customers to
reduce inventories sharply.  However, new product design activity with our
customers remains vigorous, and we are committed to providing them with leading-
edge, next-generation solutions.  We believe that, with our new product programs
and our Global Realignment Program, we will emerge as an even stronger leader in
our industry as the business climate improves. We remain confident in the
longer-term health of our industry and the continued rapid growth in the demand
for bandwidth.&quot;  </P>
<P>The Company's balance sheet remains sound with over $1.4 billion in cash and
money market instruments.  The Company has not raised funds recently with debt
or equity financing.</P>
<P>JDS Uniphase is a high-technology company that designs, develops,
manufactures and distributes a comprehensive range of products for the growing
fiberoptic communications market. These products are deployed by system
manufacturers worldwide to develop advanced optical networks for the
telecommunications and cable television industries. JDS Uniphase Corporation is

shares of JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd. are traded on The Toronto Stock Exchange
under the symbol JDU. More information on JDS Uniphase is available at

<P>The statements contained in this press release that are not purely historical
are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Act of 1934.  Such
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to any statement or
implication as to (1) anticipated sales for the current quarter and the first
quarter of fiscal 2002, anticipated expense levels, and anticipated inventory
levels and reserves for excess inventory (including, without limitation, the
sufficiency of such reserves), (2) the amount of the expected fourth quarter pro
forma loss and the anticipation as to profitability in the absence of inventory
write-downs, (3) the Company's ability to respond to the business downturn
through the new product programs and Global Realignment Program, (4) the cost of
the Global Realignment Program, as well as the ability of the Company to
implement this program and to realize any benefits anticipated therefrom, (5)
the status of the industry downturn, the extent and timing of any future upturn
or growth and the belief that the demand for bandwidth will continue to grow in
the future, and (6) the Company's ability to support and supply its customers
with leading edge products and to remain competitive and a leader in its
industry. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including,
without limitation, the following: (1) the Company's ongoing integration
efforts, including, among other things, the Global Realignment Program, may not
be successful in achieving their expected benefits, may be insufficient to align
the Company's operations with customer demand and the changes affecting our
industry, or may be more costly than currently anticipated; (2) due to the
current economic slowdown, in general, and setbacks in our customers'
businesses, in particular, our ability to predict the Company's financial
performance for future periods is far more difficult than in previous periods;
and (3) our ongoing efforts to reduce product costs to our customers, through
automation and other improved manufacturing processes may be unsuccessful.  For
more information on these and other risks affecting our business, please refer
to the &quot;Risk Factors'' Section in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2001.  The forward-looking statements
contained in this news release are made as of the date hereof and we do not
assume any obligation to update the reasons why actual results could differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.</P>
