</FONT>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt"><FONT style="font-size: 11pt">MONTR&#201;AL, June&nbsp;13, 2012 &#150; Bell Canada (Bell) today announced the reinstatement of its Cdn
$3-billion Medium Term Notes (MTN)&nbsp;program and the public offering of Cdn $1&nbsp;billion of MTN
debentures fully and unconditionally guaranteed by BCE Inc. (TSX, NYSE: BCE).
</FONT>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Bell filed with the securities regulatory authorities, in all the provinces of Canada as well as
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a prospectus supplement to a short form
base shelf prospectus dated August&nbsp;15, 2011. This filing was made to reinstate Bell&#146;s MTN program
and enables Bell to offer up to Cdn $3&nbsp;billion of MTN Debentures from time to time until September
2013, providing Bell with financial flexibility and efficient access to Canadian and U.S. capital
markets.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">Bell also entered into a dealer agreement with certain dealers, under which the dealers have agreed
to act as agents, principals or underwriters with respect to future offerings of MTN Debentures.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt"><B>Public offering of Cdn $1&nbsp;billion of MTN Debentures</B>
<BR>
Bell is proceeding with a public offering of Cdn $1&nbsp;billion of MTN Debentures pursuant to its MTN
program.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The Cdn $1&nbsp;billion 3.35% MTN Debentures, Series&nbsp;M-25, will mature on June&nbsp;18, 2019 and will be
issued at a price of Cdn $99.839 per $100 principal amount for a yield to the investor of 3.376%
per annum compounded semi-annually.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The net proceeds of the offering are intended to be used for general corporate purposes, including
the repayment of outstanding commercial paper, and funding a portion of the cost of BCE&#146;s
acquisition of Astral Media Inc. (Astral), which is expected to close in the second half of 2012.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">The Series&nbsp;M-25 MTN Debentures are being offered in all provinces of Canada and in the United
States to institutional investors that satisfy applicable state registration exemptions through a
syndicate of agents. Closing of the offering is expected to occur on June&nbsp;18, 2012. Bell will file
a pricing supplement relating to this issue with the securities regulatory authorities in all
provinces of Canada and with the SEC in the United States.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">There shall be no offer, solicitation or sale of securities of Bell in any state or jurisdiction in
which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt">A copy of the pricing supplement, the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus for the
offering may be obtained from the Investor Inquiries contact listed below.</FONT><FONT style="font-size: 12pt">&#091;Bell Canada
