On October 27, 2014, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Tucows Inc. (the “Company”) increased the size of the Board to seven members and, upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee of the Board, appointed Robin Chase to the Board as a director, with a term expiring at the Company’s 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. There were no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Chase and any other persons pursuant to which Ms. Chase was selected as a director of the Company. The Board has determined that Ms. Chase is an independent director in accordance with the NASDAQ listing standards.
