<P align="left" style="font-size: 20pt"><FONT style="font-size: 11pt">For immediate release

<P align="center" style="font-size: 11pt"><FONT style="font-size: 14pt"><B>Bell Mobility acquires full ownership of Virgin Mobile Canada</B></FONT><BR>
<FONT style="font-size: 11pt"><I>Acquisition supports Bell&#146;s strategic imperative to Accelerate Wireless</I></FONT>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt"><B>MONTR&#201;AL, May&nbsp;7, 2009 </B>&#150; Bell today announced the $142-million acquisition by Bell Mobility of the
50% stake in Virgin Mobile Canada not already owned by Bell, along with an exclusive, long-term
licensing agreement with the Virgin Group for continued use of the Virgin Mobile brand in Canada.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">&#147;Bell Mobility&#146;s acquisition of Virgin Mobile Canada supports our strategic imperative to
Accelerate Wireless, a core component in Bell&#146;s overall strategy to achieve our goal: To be
recognized by customers as Canada&#146;s leading communications company,&#148; said George Cope, President
and CEO of Bell and BCE. &#147;This initiative will allow Bell Mobility to be uniquely flexible in the
competitive wireless marketplace, maximizing network, handset, distribution and global roaming
efficiencies, and enhancing the growth of the No.&nbsp;1 youth brand in Canadian wireless.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Sir Richard Branson, Chairman of The Virgin Group, said: &#147;Bell has been an ideal partner for Virgin
since 2004. I believe the acquisition of Virgin Mobile Canada and continuing licence of the Virgin
Mobile brand to Bell will help to expand the Mobile business more quickly and allow even more
Canadians to enjoy the unique wireless service and product experience Virgin created. We look
forward to supporting Bell&#146;s expansion through our ongoing efforts to build the Virgin brand in
Canada with entertainment businesses such as Virgin Festival and Virgin Radio.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">While Virgin Mobile Canada will continue to operate independently with distinct branding and its
own distribution channels, both Virgin Mobile Canada and Bell Mobility will realize enhanced
operational efficiencies from shared network infrastructure, handset acquisition and common
distribution in high-traffic retail locations such as The Source.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">&#147;Today&#146;s announcement is an excellent complement to Bell&#146;s pending acquisition of national consumer
electronics retailer The Source and the rollout of our new third-generation (3G) HSPA wireless
network, which will be completed by early 2010 and offer new handset options and extensive global
roaming for Bell Mobility clients and Virgin Mobile customers here and around the world,&#148; said Wade
Oosterman, President of Bell Mobility and Chief Brand Officer for Bell.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">On a per subscriber basis, the all-cash $142&nbsp;million purchase price represents a lower cost of
acquisition (COA)&nbsp;per subscriber than Bell Mobility&#146;s current COA average. The acquisition will
have limited impact on Bell Wireless financials in 2009.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Under the terms of the licensing agreement, Bell Mobility retains long-term rights to the Virgin
Mobile brand and the benefits associated with such a relationship with the Virgin Group. Virgin
Mobile Canada was formed in 2004 as a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO)&nbsp;jointly owned by Bell
Mobility and the Virgin Group. As the No.&nbsp;1 mobile youth network, Virgin Mobile Canada offers both
prepaid and postpaid wireless service options and has been awarded the highest customer
satisfaction ratings by J.D. Power and Associates for four years in a row. For more information on
Virgin Mobile Canada, please visit virginmobile.ca


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Bell is Canada&#146;s largest communications company, providing consumers with solutions to all their
communications needs including Bell Mobility and Solo Mobile wireless, high-speed Bell Internet,
Bell TV direct-to-home satellite and VDSL television, Home Phone local and long distance, and
IP-broadband and information and communications technology (ICT)&nbsp;services. Bell is proud to be a
Premier National Partner and the exclusive Telecommunications Partner to the Vancouver 2010 Olympic
and Paralympic Winter Games. Bell is wholly owned by BCE Inc. For information on Bell&#146;s products
