</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">(Warwick, New York, September&nbsp;7, 2005) Warwick Valley Telephone Company (Nasdaq: WWVYE; the
&#147;Company&#148;) announced today that on September&nbsp;6, 2005 the Listing Qualifications Panel of The Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc. granted the Company an extension until October&nbsp;15, 2005 to file its Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March&nbsp;31, 2005 (the &#147;First Quarter 10-Q&#148;) and June&nbsp;30,
2005 (the &#147;Second Quarter 10-Q&#148;). The Company previously reported that the Listing Qualifications
Panel had granted the Company&#146;s request for 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 &#147;Annual Report&#148;). The Company anticipates
that it will be in a position to file these reports by the dates indicated. If, contrary to the
Company&#146;s expectations, the Company is unable to file these reports in a timely manner, its Common
Shares may be delisted from The Nasdaq National Market.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s late filing of the Annual Report 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 the evaluation and testing that are part of preparing its
assessment of its internal control over financial reporting. The First Quarter 10-Q and the Second
Quarter 10-Q cannot be filed until after the Annual Report has been filed. The Company is
continuing to devote intense effort to that assessment and all other matters that are necessary so
that the Annual Report and both the First Quarter and Second Quarter 10-Q can be filed. The delays
have not resulted from the discovery of circumstances 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: 12pt">This press release contains forward-looking statements. Please refer to the Company&#146;s Quarterly
Report on Form&nbsp;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.
