(BCE) and 3787877 Canada Inc.

This Amendment No. 3 is filed by BCE, the Bell Canada Pension Plan (the Plan) and Bimcor Inc.

principal place of business of Bell Canada, the Plans sponsor and administrator, is 1000, rue de la Gauchetière Ouest, Bureau 3700, Montréal, Québec, Canada H3B 4Y7.

The principal business activity of BCE is communications.

The principal business of Bimcor is the management of investments of the Plan and of investments of the pension plans of other BCE group companies. BCE is Canadas largest communications company. Through its 28 million customer connections, BCE provides the most comprehensive and innovative suite of communication services to residential and business customers in Canada. Under the Bell brand, BCEs services include local, long distance and wireless phone services, high-speed and wireless Internet access, IP-broadband services, information and communications technology services (or value-added services) and direct-to-home satellite and VDSL television services.

During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons and, to the best of the knowledge of BCE and Bimcor, none of the persons named on Schedules A-1 and A-2 hereto, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
