SECTION 4 -- MATTERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Item 4.01.        Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
---------         ---------------------------------------------

(b)      On February 25, 2005, the Audit Committee of Camco Financial
Corporation ("Camco") approved the engagement of Plante & Moran, PLLC
("Plante & Moran") as Camco's principal independent registered public accounting
firm.

         Prior to engaging Plante & Moran, Camco did not consult with Plante &
Moran regarding either:

               1. The application of accounting principles to a specified
         transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion
         that might be rendered on the Camco's financial statements, and either
         a written report was provided to the Camco or oral advice was provided
         that Plante & Moran concluded was an important factor considered by
         Camco in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or
         financial reporting issue; or

               2. Any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as
         defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related
         instructions to Item 304) or a reportable event (as described in Item
         304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
