<P align="center" style="font-size: 11pt"><FONT style="font-size: 14pt"><B>BCE announces schedule for Court of Appeal proceedings</B></FONT>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 14pt"><FONT style="font-size: 11pt"><B>MONTREAL, Quebec, March&nbsp;18, 2007 </B>&#150; BCE (TSX, NYSE: BCE) today announced the schedule
established by the Qu&#233;bec Court of Appeal for the legal proceedings related to the appeals
initiated by certain holders of Bell Canada debentures.
</FONT>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The schedule established by the Court of Appeal provides for three and a half days of hearings,
over a maximum period of five days, beginning on April&nbsp;28, 2008. The Court has indicated that it
expects to render a decision expeditiously.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">&#147;We are very pleased that the Court of Appeal has agreed to a schedule that will allow for the
expeditious resolution of these appeals,&#148; said Martine Turcotte, Chief Legal Officer of BCE and
Bell Canada. &#147;Our position from the start, which was supported on every point of contention by the
Qu&#233;bec Superior Court, is that the claims of these debentureholders are without merit. We believe
that the Superior Court&#146;s decisions will be upheld. As the Superior Court has concluded, BCE and
Bell Canada have respected all of the rights and reasonable expectations of the debentureholders,&#148;
added Ms.&nbsp;Turcotte.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">As a result of the Court of Appeal schedule ordered today, BCE now expects the transaction to close
before the end of the second quarter of 2008.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt"><B>Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">This news release contains forward-looking statements relating to the proposed privatization of
BCE, legal proceedings related thereto and other statements that are not historical facts. Such
forward-looking statements are subject to important risks, uncertainties and assumptions including,
in particular, the inherent uncertainty regarding the conduct, outcome and timing of any
litigation. The results or events predicted in these forward-looking statements may differ
materially from actual results or events. As a result, we cannot guarantee that any forward-looking
statement will materialize.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The completion of the proposed privatization transaction is subject to a number of terms and
conditions, including, without limitation: (i)&nbsp;approval of the CRTC and Industry Canada, (ii)
resolution of the appeals filed by the debentureholders with regard to the plan of arrangement, and
any related stay or injunction that would prevent closing pending resolution of such appeals,</FONT><FONT style="font-size: 10pt">
</FONT><FONT style="font-size: 11pt">and (iii)&nbsp;certain termination rights available to the parties under the definitive agreement
dated June&nbsp;29, 2007, as amended, governing the terms of the transaction. These approvals may not be
obtained, the other conditions to the transaction may not be satisfied in accordance with their
terms, and/or the parties to the definitive agreement may exercise their termination rights, in
which case the proposed privatization transaction could be modified, restructured or terminated, as
applicable. Failure to complete the proposed privatization transaction could have a material
adverse impact on the market price of BCE&#146;s shares.
</FONT>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The forward-looking statements contained in this news release are made as of the date of this
release and, accordingly, are subject to change after such date. Except as may be required by
Canadian securities laws, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements contained in this news release, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise. Additionally, we undertake no obligation to comment on expectations of,
or statements made by, third parties in respect of the proposed privatization transaction. For
additional information with respect to certain of these and other assumptions and risks, please
refer to BCE&#146;s 2007 annual MD&#038;A dated March&nbsp;5, 2008 included in the Bell Canada Enterprises 2007
Annual Report, as well as to the definitive agreement dated June&nbsp;29, 2007, as amended, and BCE&#146;s
management proxy circular dated August&nbsp;7, 2007, all filed by BCE with the Canadian securities
commissions (available at <U>www.sedar.com</U>) and with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (available at <U>www.sec.gov</U>). These documents are also available on BCE&#146;s website
at <U>www.bce.ca</U>.
