<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Nasdaq Grants WVT&#146;s Request for Continued Listing</B>
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">(Warwick, New York, August&nbsp;11, 2005) Warwick Valley Telephone Company (Nasdaq: WWVYE; the
&#147;Company&#148;) announced today that a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel of The Nasdaq National
Market, Inc. has granted the Company&#146;s request for the continued listing of its Common Shares on
The Nasdaq National Market, provided that the Company files on or before September&nbsp;30, 2005 its
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December&nbsp;31, 2004. The Company anticipates that it
will be in a position to file this report by that date. If, contrary to the Company&#146;s expectations,
the Company is unable to file this report by that date, its Common Shares may be delisted from
The Nasdaq National Market.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As previously reported, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of
The Nasdaq National Market, Inc., dated April&nbsp;5, 2005, stating that the Company had failed to
comply with Nasdaq&#146;s Marketplace Rule&nbsp;4310(c)(14) because it had not yet filed its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004. Since the Company&#146;s late filing of the Form
10-K is due to the complex nature of the requirements of Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002, and the fact that the Company encountered unanticipated delays in connection with its
evaluation and testing in its assessment of its internal control over financial reporting, the
Company requested a hearing with Nasdaq which was held on May&nbsp;5, 2005. On May&nbsp;17, 2005, the Nasdaq
Listing Qualifications Panel notified the Company that the Company&#146;s Common Shares would continue
to be listed provided that the Company file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31,
2004 and its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2005 on or before July&nbsp;29, 2005. On July
27, 2005 the Company requested that this date be further extended.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is working diligently to complete its assessment of internal controls over financial
reporting and to meet the requirements of Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The
extensive review of the Company&#146;s internal controls has not uncovered any fraud or impropriety or
other circumstance which would require any restatement of its prior financials.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">This press release contains forward-looking statements. Please refer to the Company&#146;s Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 and the Company&#146;s past and future filings and
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a description of the business
environment in which the Company operates and the important factors that may affect its business.
The Company is not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any obligation to) update or
alter its forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
