Exhibit 99.4
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the six months ended June 30, 2006 are based on historical financial statements of Tucows Inc. and Mailbank.com, Inc. (“Mailbank”) after giving effect to Tucows’s acquisition of Mailbank using the purchase method of accounting and applying the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations as if such acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2005 for pro forma statement of operations purposes.
The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “ Business Combinations”. Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price, calculated as described in Note 1 to these unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisition, based on their fair values. Management used independent third-party sources to assist in calculating the value of identifiable intangible assets. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations has been prepared by management for illustrative purposes only and does not include the realization of cost savings from operating efficiencies, revenue synergies or other costs expected to result from the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are therefore not necessarily indicative of the condensed consolidated results of operation in future periods that would actually have been realized had Tucows and Mailbank been a combined company during the specified period.
The pro forma adjustments are based on preliminary information available at the time of this document. Final purchase price adjustments may vary materially from the pro forma adjustments presented herein. Certain reclassification adjustments have been made in the presentation of Mailbank’s historical amounts to conform Mailbank’s financial statement basis of presentation to that followed by Tucows. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, including the notes thereto, should be read in conjunction with Tucows’s historical consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the three months ended June 30, 2006, Mailbank’s historical consolidated Financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 and for the three months ended March 31, 2006, which are included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K/A.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. Transaction and Basis of Presentation . On June 19, 2006 Tucows Inc. (“Tucows”) completed its previously announced acquisition of Mailbank.com, Inc. (“Mailbank”), a privately held Nevada corporation, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated June 15, 2006. Mailbank, which does business as NetIdentity, owns a portfolio of surname-based domain names that provide consumers with personalized email and web hosting services as well as a portfolio of premium names which it uses to generate direct navigation revenue. The aggregate amount paid by Tucows for acquiring all of the outstanding capital stock of Mailbank was approximately $17.9 million.
The preliminary purchase price was determined as follows:

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and other Intangible Assets, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives will not be amortized but will instead be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite life will be reviewed annually to determine whether indefinite life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite will be made on a prospective basis.
A pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2006 is not presented since our June 30, 2006 condensed consolidated balance sheet as previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on our quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, reflects the acquisition of Mailbank.
NOTE 2. Pro Forma Adjustments
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared as if the acquisition of Mailbank had occurred as of January 1, 2005 for pro forma statement of operations purposes, and reflect the following adjustments:
(a) To include the results of operations of Mailbank from January 1, 2006 to June 19, 2006, the date that
Mailbank was acquired by Tucows. Tucows has included the results of operations of Mailbank for the period from June 20, 2006 to June 30, 2006 in the Tucows historical consolidated financial statements from June 20, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
(b) To record the reclassification of certain expenses in the presentation of Mailbank’s historical amounts to conform Mailbank’s financial statement basis of presentation to that followed by Tucows.
(c) To record the amortization of identifiable intangible assets acquired.
(d) As of the acquisition date, deferred revenues were reduced from $1.9 million to $169,000 in order to adjust deferred revenue to an amount equivalent to the estimated cost plus an appropriate profit margin to perform the services related to the legal performance obligations under Mailbank existing contracts. This adjustment is to record the amortization of the deferred revenue of $169,000.
(e) To record the decrease in interest income for the period due to the cash payment of $6.7 million related to the acquisition of Mailbank, computed at the average rate of interest earned by Tucows over the same period, and interest expense incurred on the 2 promissory notes payable to Rawleigh H. Ralls IV as the Stockholders’ Representative at rates of 7% and 9% respectively.
