EXPLANATORY NOTE

Anadigics, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statements on Forms S-8 listed below (collectively, the “Registration Statements”):

• Registration Statement No. 333-205145, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 22, 2015, registering 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Shares”) under the 2016 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the 2015 Long Term Incentive and Share Award Plan;

• Registration Statement No. 333-172129, filed with the Commission on February 9, 2011, registering 7,000,000 Shares under the Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the Amended and Restated 2005 Long-Term Incentive and Share Award Plan;

• Registration Statement No. 333-157711, filed with the Commission on March 5, 2009, registering 700,000 Shares under the Share Option Agreement between the Company and Mario Rivas;

• Registration Statement No. 333-151293, filed with the Commission on May 30, 2008, registering 7,600,000 Shares under the Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the Amended and Restated 2005 Long-Term Incentive and Share Award Plan;

• Registration Statement No. 333-136280, filed with the Commission on August 3, 2006, registering 2,750,000 Shares under the Amended and Restated 2005 Long-Term Incentive and Share Award Plan; and

• Registration Statement No. 333-125971, filed with the Commission on June 20, 2005, registering 3,700,000 Shares under the 2005 Long-Term Incentive and Share Award Plan and the Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of January 15, 2016 and amended February 1, 2016 and February 29, 2016, by and among the Company, II-VI Incorporated (“II-VI”) and Regulus Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), on March 14, 2016, Merger Sub completed its tender offer for all of the outstanding common stock of the Company by accepting for payment, and paying for, all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the tender offer, resulting in Merger Sub owning no less than 47,782,407 shares, or approximately 52.92%, of the Company’s common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, II-VI and Merger Sub intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), whereby each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than Shares held by any stockholders who properly perfected a demand for appraisal in connection with the Merger) will be converted into the right to receive $0.85 in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, except for Shares then owned by the Company, II-VI, Merger Sub or any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries, which Shares will be cancelled for no consideration. As a result of the Merger, the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of II-VI.

As a result of the completion of the tender offer and the anticipated completion of the Merger, the Company has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. Accordingly, pursuant to the undertaking contained in the Registration Statements to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statements to deregister all Shares registered under the Registration Statements that remain unsold as of March 14, 2016.
