TigerTel Communications Inc. ("TigerTel") (TSX VENTURE: TTL) has confirmed that, effective at 12:01 a.m. today, it amalgamated with 7212747 Canada Inc. ("Swiftco") to form a company also to be known as "TigerTel Communications Inc." ("Amalco"). The amalgamation was completed pursuant to the terms of a business combination agreement between TigerTel and Swiftco made September 8, 2009 ("BCA") and was approved by the shareholders of TigerTel at its Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders held on October 20, 2009.

Effective upon the amalgamation, all of the common shares of TigerTel, other than those held by Swiftco, were converted into an equal number of Amalco Redeemable Preferred Shares, which shares were immediately redeemed for $0.25 cash per share.

Amalco has applied to have its shares delisted from trading on the TSX Venture Exchange, which is expected to occur as early as close of business on October 23, 2009. It is also applying to cease to be a reporting issuer in each of British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario, and consequently become a private company.

As required under the terms of the BCA, prior to the completion of the amalgamation, Swiftco deposited with Equity Transfer & Trust Company, as depositary, the aggregate redemption price of all of the Amalco Redeemable Preferred Shares that were issuable upon the amalgamation. Registered holders of such shares may obtain the redemption amount for their shares by following the instructions set out in the TigerTel Management Information Circular relating to the Annual and Special Meeting and the Letter of Transmittal that accompanied same, copies of which are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
