			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TORONTO, Jan. 14 &#8211; Tucows Inc. (AMEX:TCX, TSX:TC) a global provider of domain names, email and other Internet services, announced today the preliminary results of its modified &#8220;Dutch auction&#8221; tender offer, which expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 13, 2010. Tucows expects to purchase 6,341,607 shares of its Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.70 per share, for a total of $4,439,125. The 6,341,607 shares expected to be purchased are comprised of the 5,000,000 shares Tucows offered to purchase and 1,341,607 shares to be purchased pursuant to Tucows right to purchase up to an additional 2% of the shares outstanding immediately prior to the commencement of the tender offer.<br />
<span id="more-1760"></span><br />
Based on a preliminary count by StockTrans, Inc., 6,356,497 shares were properly tendered at prices at or below the purchase price, making the tender offer oversubscribed by 1,356,497 shares, or approximately 2%. Due to over-subscription, Tucows expects the final proration factor for shares tendered at or below $0.70 per share to be approximately 99.8%. For this purpose, shares tendered at or below $0.70 per share will include shares tendered by those persons who indicated, in their letter of transmittal, that they are willing to accept the price determined in the offer. All shares purchased in the tender offer will receive the same price.</p>
<p>The price per share is preliminary and subject to verification by StockTrans, Inc., the depositary for the tender offer. The actual price per share will be announced promptly following completion of the verification process. After the determination of the actual price per share, the depositary will issue payment for the shares accepted under the tender offer and return all shares not accepted.<br />
Tucows commenced the tender offer on December 14, 2009, when it offered to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price within the range of $0.61 to $0.70 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest.</p>
<p>As a result of the completion of the tender offer, Tucows expects to have approximately 60,739,000 shares issued and outstanding as of the time immediately following payment for the tendered shares.</p>

And we strongly believe that open source tools are central to the continued growth and health of the Internet.</p>
<p>You may have heard that <a href="http://www.sun.com/third-party/global/oracle/">Oracle has acquired Sun</a>, and along with it, MySQL, which is is a central building block in the suite of open source tools.</p>
<p>While MySQL holds that position in the world of open source software, it is <em>not</em> important to the Oracle acquisition of Sun. In fact, all of the most important reasons for Oracle doing the acquisition would still be in place if Sun had no role whatsoever with MySQL.</p>
<p>The &#8220;cost&#8221; to Oracle of freeing MySQL is very low. The benefit to the world is extremely high.</p>
<p>With that in mind, please consider lending your support to the campaign. We&#8217;ve added our support by signing <a href="http://helpmysql.org/en/petition">the petition</a>. The <a href="http://helpmysql.org/">Save MySQL</a> website has lots of information about why the community feels that MySQL is important, and what you can do to ensure it stays open and freely available to the entire Internet community.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TORONTO, Dec. 14 &#8211; Tucows Inc. (NYSE AMEX:TCX, TSX:TC) a global provider of domain names, email and other Internet services, announced today that it is commencing a modified &#8220;Dutch auction&#8221; tender offer to repurchase up to 5,000,000 shares of its common stock, representing approximately 7.5% of Tucows&#8217; outstanding shares. The closing price of Tucows common stock on the NYSE Amex on December 11, 2009 was $0.65.<br />
<span id="more-1750"></span></p>
<p>Under the tender offer, shareholders will have the opportunity to tender some or all of their shares at a price within the range of $0.61 to $0.70 per share. Based on the number of shares tendered and the prices specified by the tendering shareholders, Tucows will determine the lowest per share price within the range that will enable it to buy 5,000,000 shares, or such lesser number of shares that are properly tendered. If shareholders of more than 5,000,000 shares properly tender their shares at or below the determined price per share, Tucows will purchase shares tendered by such shareholders, at the determined price per share, on a pro rata basis. Additionally, if more than 5,000,000 shares are properly tendered, the number of shares to be repurchased by Tucows pursuant to the tender offer may, at the discretion of Tucows, be increased by up to 2% of Tucows&#8217; outstanding shares, or approximately 1,341,000 shares, without amending or extending the tender offer.</p>
<p>Shareholders whose shares are purchased in the offer will be paid the determined purchase price per share net in cash, without interest, after the expiration of the offer period. The offer is not contingent upon any minimum number of shares being tendered. The offer is subject to a number of other terms and conditions specified in the offer to purchase that is being distributed to shareholders. The offer will expire at 5:00 P.M., New York City Time, on Wednesday, January 13, 2010.</p>
<p>The information agent for the offer is StockTrans, Inc. None of Tucows, its board of directors or the information agent is making any recommendation to stockholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares into the tender offer. Shareholders must decide how many shares they will tender, if any, and the price within the stated range at which they will offer their shares for purchase by Tucows. Tucows&#8217; board of directors and its executive officers do not intend to participate in this tender offer.</p>
<p>This press release is for informational purposes only and is not an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell any shares of Tucows&#8217; common stock. The offer is being made solely by the offer to purchase and the related letter of transmittal. Stockholders and investors are urged to read Tucows&#8217; tender offer statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the tender offer, which includes exhibits, the offer to purchase and the related letter of transmittal, as well as any amendments or supplements to the statement when they become available, because they contain important information. Each of these documents has been or will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and investors may obtain them for free from the Securities and Exchange Commission at its website (www.sec.gov) or from StockTrans, Inc., the information agent for the tender offer, by directing such request to: StockTrans, Inc., Attn: Re-Organization Dept., 44 West Lancaster Avenue, Ardmore, PA 19003, telephone (800) 733-1121.</p>

Based on the number of shares tendered and the prices specified by the tendering shareholders, Tucows will determine the lowest per share price within the range that will enable it to buy 5,000,000 shares, or such lesser number of shares that are properly tendered. If shareholders of more than 5,000,000 shares properly tender their shares at or below the determined price per share, Tucows will purchase shares tendered by such shareholders, at the determined price per share, on a pro rata basis. Additionally, if more than 5,000,000 shares are properly tendered, the number of shares to be repurchased by Tucows pursuant to the tender offer may, at the discretion of Tucows, be increased by up to 2% of Tucows&#8217; outstanding shares, or approximately 1,341,000 shares, without amending or extending the tender offer.</p>
<p>Shareholders whose shares are purchased in the offer will be paid the determined purchase price per share net in cash, without interest, after the expiration of the offer period. The offer is not contingent upon any minimum number of shares being tendered. The offer is subject to a number of other terms and conditions specified in the offer to purchase that is being distributed to shareholders. The information agent for the offer will be StockTrans, Inc. None of Tucows, its board of directors or the information agent is or will be making any recommendation to stockholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares into the tender offer. Shareholders must decide how many shares they will tender, if any, and the price within the stated range at which they will offer their shares for purchase by Tucows. Tucows&#8217; board of directors and its executive officers do not intend to participate in this tender offer.</p>
<p>This press release is for informational purposes only and is not an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell any shares of Tucows&#8217; common stock. The offer will be made solely by the offer to purchase and the related letter of transmittal. Stockholders and investors are urged to read Tucows&#8217; tender offer statement on Schedule TO that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the tender offer, which includes exhibits, the offer to purchase and the related letter of transmittal, as available, because they contain important information. Each of these documents has been or will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and investors may obtain them for free from the Securities and Exchange Commission at its website (www.sec.gov) or from StockTrans, Inc., the information agent for the tender offer, by directing such request to: StockTrans, Inc., Attn: Re-Organization Dept., 44 West Lancaster Avenue, Ardmore, PA 19003, telephone (800) 733-1121.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Two things Tucows can always get behind are open source software initiatives, and computer science education.</p>
<p>Recently we’ve been able to put our  money where our mouths are by helping to sponsor the UCOSP (Undergraduate Capstone Open Source Projects), being run by Greg Wilson out of the University of Toronto.</p>
<p>To paraphrase their <a title="http://ucosp.wordpress.com/about/" href="http://ucosp.wordpress.com/about/">own website</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Starting in September  2009, computer science students from several universities in Canada and the US are taking  part in a set of joint capstone projects in order to learn first-hand what  distributed development is like. Each team will have students from two or  three  schools, and will use a mix of agile and open source <a title="http://ucosp.wordpress.com/about/process" href="http://ucosp.wordpress.com/about/process">processes</a> under the  supervision of a faculty or industry lead.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>What it really means is that  students from schools all over Canada (and some from the US and Caribbean) get  to earn course credits by working in teams on an open-source project – for  example, ElmCity, Ingres, Thunderbird, Eclipse4Edu, etc. It’s a multi-layered challenge for them as they need to figure out how to work in a distributed team, plan their time vs. their other courses, learn how to participate in an  open-source project, and…oh yeah, code useful contributions!</p>

<p><em><a href="http://ucosp.wordpress.com/project-markus/">MarkUs</a>: Young coders that participated in the UCOSP Code Sprint</em></center></p>
<p>The kickoff was back at the  beginning of October, when all participants were brought together in Toronto for a weekend to meet each other, learn about their projects, and figure out how they would coordinate their efforts. From there the students have been working remotely using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development">Agile methodologies</a>, and <a href="http://ucosp.wordpress.com/">blogging their progress</a>.</p>
<p>For us at Tucows it’s great to get involved with some bright, budding talent and help them get a taste for delivering in ‘the real world’.</p>
<p>If you want to know more about the program, or get involved, go ahead and <a href="http://ucosp.wordpress.com/about/">visit the website</a>!</p>

<p>&#8220;Throughout 2009, we have consistently delivered solid financial results, driven by the strong performance of our OpenSRS wholesale business, the initiatives we have undertaken to improve other components of our business, and the success of our efforts to improve our cost structure,&#8221; said
<person>Elliot Noss</person>, President and CEO of Tucows. &#8220;Fundamentally, our business is strong and we are performing very well operationally. Amidst a weakening Internet services environment, our strong competitive position, supported by continuing improvements to our OpenSRS platform, has enabled us to grow new registrations in excess of industry performance. All of this continues to position us well for the remainder of 2009 and beyond.&#8221;</p>
<p>Net revenue for the third quarter of 2009 was $20.5 million compared with $20.1 million for the third quarter of 2008.</p>
<p>Net income for the third quarter of 2009 was $5.1 million, or $0.07 per share, compared with a net loss of $71,000, or less than $0.01 per share, for the third quarter of 2008. Net income for the third quarter of 2009 benefitted from other income of $1.9 million generated by receipt of the third and final payment related to the sale of the Company&#8217;s equity stake in Afilias, as well as a gain on foreign exchange of $1.9 million (inclusive of a mark-to-market gain of $1.9 million) compared to a loss on foreign exchange of $0.7 million (inclusive of a mark-to-market loss of $0.5 million) for the third quarter of 2008. In addition, because the Company is no longer subject to state taxes in certain jurisdictions, it has amended its tax rate payable in connection with its deferred tax liability resulting in an income tax recovery of $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2009.</p>
<p>Deferred revenue at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2009 was $56.5 million, an increase of 4% from $54.4 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and a slight decrease from $56.9 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2009.</p>
<p>Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2009 were $8.2 million compared with $2.7 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and $7.4 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2009. This increase in cash compared with the second quarter of 2009 is primarily the result of the receipt of the $2.0 million payment related to the sale of the Company&#8217;s equity stake in Afilias last year, which was partially offset by the repayment of $479,000 of the Company&#8217;s bank loan and the use of $570,000 for the repurchase of shares under the Company&#8217;s second modified &#8220;Dutch auction&#8221; tender offer, which concluded in July of this year. Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $82,000 and was impacted by a change in non-cash working capital related to the timing of payables and receivables of $1.5 million, the result of the receipt of $0.5 million in receivables shortly after quarter end and the payment of $1.0 million in certain payables to comply with changes in the Company&#8217;s relationships with certain suppliers.</p>
<p><strong>Conference Call</strong></p>
