investors may not be able to resell the Offered Notes purchased under this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the Offered Notes in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading

Prospectus Directive from the requirement to produce or publish a prospectus for offers of Offered Notes. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make an offer within a Member State of the Offered Notes which are the subject of an offering
contemplated in this prospectus supplement may only do so to legal entities which are qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive, provided that no such offer of Offered Notes shall require the Company or any underwriter to produce or
publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Offered Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or
otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i)&nbsp;a retail client as defined in point
(11)&nbsp;of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, &#147;<B>MiFID II</B>&#148;); or (ii)&nbsp;a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as&nbsp;amended, the &#147;<B>IDD</B>&#148;), where that customer would not qualify as
a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii)&nbsp;not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive, and the expression &#147;offer&#148; includes the communication in any form and by any means
of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Offered Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Offered Notes. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU)
No&nbsp;1286/2014 (as amended, the &#147;<B>PRIIPs Regulation</B>&#148;) for offering or selling the Offered Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Offered

with the offering of the Offered Notes, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Offered Notes. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. See
&#147;Underwriting&#148;. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The underwriters are affiliates of banks which are members of a syndicate of financial institutions that has

incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any related free writing prospectus we file with the SEC is accurate as of any date other than the date hereof, thereof or the date of such incorporated

is expected that delivery of the Offered Notes will be made against payment therefor on or about May&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;, 2019, which will be three business days following the date of this prospectus supplement (this settlement
cycle being referred to as &#147;<B>T+3</B>&#148;). Under Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">15c6-1</FONT> of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;<B>Exchange Act</B>&#148;), trades in the secondary market generally are
required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade their Offered Notes on the date of this prospectus supplement will be required, by virtue of the fact
that the Offered Notes will settle in T+3, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Offered Notes who wish to trade their Offered Notes on the date of this prospectus
supplement should consult their own advisors. </P>

movement of securities certificates. DTC&#146;s participants include securities brokers and dealers (including the underwriters), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations, some of whom (and/or their

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, holders of the Offered Notes will have the right, subject to certain
conditions, to require Bell Canada to repurchase the Offered Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Offered Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. See &#147;Description
of Offered Notes &#151; Repurchase upon Change of Control Triggering Event&#148;. Such right may implicate the provisions of the Treasury Regulations relating to contingent payment debt instruments. Under those regulations, however, a contingency
will not cause a debt instrument to be treated as a contingent payment debt instrument if, as of the issue date, such contingency is remote. Bell Canada intends to treat the possibility that a Change of Control Triggering Event will occur as a
remote contingency, and therefore Bell Canada believes that any additional interest that is payable upon the repurchase of the Offered Notes following a Change of Control Triggering Event will be taxable to you only at the time the interest accrues
or is received in accordance with your method of accounting. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the Offered Notes will not be treated as contingent payment debt instruments. </P>

generally not required to include de minimis OID in income prior to the sale or maturity of the Offered Notes, United States holders that maintain certain types of financial statements and that are subject to the accrual method of tax accounting may

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following is a summary of certain considerations associated with the purchase of the Offered Notes by any Plan.&nbsp;For this purpose, a
&#147;Plan&#148; is (i)&nbsp;any &#147;employee benefit plan&#148; subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (&#147;<B>ERISA</B>&#148;), (ii) individual retirement accounts (&#147;<B>IRAs</B>&#148; and
each, an &#147;<B>IRA</B>&#148;) and other arrangements subject to Section&nbsp;4975 the Code, and (iii)&nbsp;an entity whose underlying assets include &#147;plan assets&#148; within the meaning of ERISA by reason of the investments by such plans or
accounts or arrangements therein. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">ERISA and the Code impose certain duties on persons who are fiduciaries of a Plan subject to Title I of
ERISA or Section&nbsp;4975 of the Code and prohibit certain transactions involving the assets of a Plan and its fiduciaries or other interested parties. Under ERISA and the Code, any person who exercises any discretionary authority or control over
the administration of such a Plan or the management or disposition of the assets of such a Plan, or who renders investment advice for a fee or other compensation to such a Plan, is generally considered to be a fiduciary of the Plan. Persons who may
exercise such authority and control or are associated with investment decisions are advised to consult counsel with respect to their fiduciary status. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In considering an investment in the Offered Notes of a portion of the assets of any Plan, a Plan fiduciary should determine whether the
investment is in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the Plan and the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code or any similar law relating to a fiduciary&#146;s duties to the Plan including, without limitation, the prudence,
diversification, delegation of control and prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA, the Code and any other applicable similar law. A Plan fiduciary should consider the Plan&#146;s particular circumstances and all of the facts and circumstances of
the investment including, in determining whether an investment in the Offered Notes satisfies these requirements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;406 of
ERISA and Section&nbsp;4975 of the Code prohibit ERISA Plans from engaging in specified transactions involving Plan assets with persons or entities who are &#147;parties in interest,&#148; within the meaning of ERISA, or &#147;disqualified
persons,&#148; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;4975 of the Code, unless an exemption is available. A party in interest or disqualified person who engages in a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-exempt</FONT> prohibited transaction may be
subject to excise taxes and other penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. In addition, the fiduciary of a Plan that is subject to ERISA and that engages in such a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-exempt</FONT> prohibited transaction
may be subject to penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In this regard, the U.S. Department of Labor has issued prohibited
transaction exemptions (&#147;<B>PTCEs</B>&#148;) that may apply to the acquisition and holding of the Offered Notes. These class exemptions include, without limitation, PTCE <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">84-14</FONT> respecting transactions
determined by independent qualified professional asset managers, PTCE <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">90-1</FONT> respecting insurance company pooled separate accounts, PTCE <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">91-38</FONT> respecting bank collective
investment funds, PTCE <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">95-60</FONT> respecting life insurance company general accounts and PTCE <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">96-23</FONT> respecting transactions determined by
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-house</FONT> asset managers. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions of any such exemptions will be satisfied. In addition to the foregoing, the Pension Protection Act of 2006 provides a statutory
exemption (Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section&nbsp;4975(d)(20) of the Code) for transactions between a Plan and a person that is a party in interest and/or a disqualified person (not including a fiduciary or an affiliate that, directly or
indirectly, has or exercises discretionary authority or control or renders investment advice with respect to the assets of any Plan involved in the transaction) solely by reason of providing services to the Plan or by relationship to a service
provider, provided that the Plan pays no more than adequate consideration in connection with the transaction. Because of the foregoing, the Offered Notes should not be purchased or held by any person investing &#147;plan assets&#148; of any Plan,
unless such purchase and holding will not constitute a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-exempt</FONT> prohibited transaction under ERISA and the Code or similar violation of any applicable similar laws. </P>

purchaser or transferee will not constitute or result in a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-exempt</FONT> prohibited transaction under Section&nbsp;406 of ERISA, Section&nbsp;4975 of the Code or a similar violation under any applicable similar

business outlook, objectives, strategies, plans, strategic priorities and results of operations as well as other statements that are not historical facts. A statement we make is forward-looking when it uses what we know and expect today to make a
statement about the future. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words <I>assumption, goal, guidance, objective, outlook, project, strategy, target</I> and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as
<I>aim, anticipate, believe, could, expect, intend, may, plan, seek, should, strive </I>and <I>will</I>. All such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the &#147;safe harbour&#148; provisions of applicable Canadian securities laws and of
the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unless otherwise indicated by us, forward-looking statements
contained in this Prospectus describe Bell Canada&#146;s and BCE&#146;s expectations, as applicable, as at the date of this Prospectus and forward-looking statements contained in the documents incorporated herein by reference describe Bell
Canada&#146;s and BCE&#146;s expectations, as applicable, as of the date of such documents, unless otherwise indicated in such documents. Except as may be required by Canadian securities laws, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise
any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Forward-looking statements, by their
very nature, are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties and are based on several assumptions, both general and specific, which give rise to the possibility that actual results or events could differ materially from our expectations expressed in
or implied by such forward-looking statements and that Bell Canada&#146;s and BCE&#146;s business outlook, objectives, strategies, plans, strategic priorities, results of operations and other statements that are not historical facts may not be
achieved. As a result, we cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will materialize and we caution prospective investors against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are provided in this
Prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference for the purpose of assisting investors and others in understanding our business outlook, objectives, strategies, plans and strategic priorities as well as our anticipated operating
environment. Readers are cautioned, however, that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Forward-looking statements

operational assumptions that BCE or Bell Canada have made in preparing forward-looking statements, as such disclosure shall be updated from time to time in BCE&#146;s and Bell Canada&#146;s continuous disclosure documents incorporated by reference
herein. If our assumptions turn out to be inaccurate, our actual results could be materially different from what we expect. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Important
factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus or the documents incorporated by reference are disclosed in Section&nbsp;9 of
the BCE 2017 Annual MD&amp;A included in the BCE 2017 Annual Report on pages 97 to 102, under the heading &#147;Business risks&#148;, as well as in the other sections of the BCE 2017 Annual MD&amp;A referred to therein, as such disclosure shall be

Debt Securities to one or more purchasers directly or through agents. Debt Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices, or at <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-fixed</FONT> prices. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If offered on a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-fixed</FONT> price basis, the Debt Securities may be offered at prevailing market prices
at the time of sale or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers. The prices at which the Debt Securities may be offered may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution. Consequently, any dealer&#146;s overall compensation will
increase or decrease by the amount by which the aggregate price paid for the Debt Securities by the purchasers exceeds or is less than the gross proceeds paid by the dealers, acting as principals, to Bell Canada. </P>

sell all of the Debt Securities at the initial offering price fixed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the public offering price may be decreased and thereafter further changed, from time to time, to an amount not greater than the initial
public offering price fixed in such Prospectus Supplement, in which case the compensation realized by the underwriters will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by purchasers for the Debt Securities is less than the gross
proceeds paid by the underwriters to Bell Canada. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A Prospectus Supplement will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent engaged by Bell

if offered on a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-fixed</FONT> price basis), the proceeds to Bell Canada and any compensation payable to the underwriters, dealers or agents. </P>

Securities may be entitled to indemnification by Bell Canada against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising out of any misrepresentation in this Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein, other than liabilities
arising out of any misrepresentation made by underwriters, dealers or agents who participate in the offering of the Debt Securities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Each
series or issue of Debt Securities will be a new issue of securities with no established trading market. In accordance with rules and policy statements of certain Canadian securities regulators, the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may
be, may not, throughout the period of distribution of a series of Debt Securities, bid for or purchase such series of Debt Securities. The foregoing restriction is subject to exceptions, on the condition that the bid or purchase is not engaged in
for the purpose of creating actual or apparent active trading in, or raising prices of, such series of Debt Securities. These exceptions include a bid or purchase permitted under the Universal Market Integrity Rules of the Investment Industry
Regulatory Organization of Canada relating to market stabilization and passive market-making activities and a bid or purchase made for and on behalf of a customer where the order was not solicited during the period of distribution. Subject to the
foregoing and applicable laws, in connection with the offering, and subject to the first exception mentioned above, the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, may engage in over-allotment and stabilizing transactions and purchases to
cover short positions created by the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, in connection with the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the
market price of a particular series of Debt Securities and short positions created by the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, involving the sale by the under writers, dealers or agents, as the case may be, of a greater number of
Debt Securities of such series than may be offered by Bell Canada in the offering. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Debt Securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail
in the open market; these activities, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. These transactions may be effected in the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">over-the-counter</FONT></FONT> market or otherwise. </P>

contained in, or incorporated by reference in, this Prospectus, including, without limitation, the risk factors disclosed in Section&nbsp;9 of the BCE 2017 Annual MD&amp;A included in the BCE 2017 Annual Report on pages 97 to 102 under the heading
&#147;Business risks&#148;, as well as in the other sections of the BCE 2017 Annual MD&amp;A referred to therein, as such disclosure shall be updated from time to time in BCE&#146;s and Bell Canada&#146;s continuous disclosure documents incorporated

</I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Debt Securities denominated or payable in foreign currencies may entail significant risks, and the extent and nature of such risks
change continuously. These risks include, without limitation, the possibility of significant fluctuations in the foreign currency market, the imposition or modification of foreign exchange controls and potential illiquidity in the secondary market.
These risks will vary depending upon the currency or currencies involved. Prospective purchasers should consult their own financial and legal advisors as to the risks entailed in an investment in Debt Securities denominated in currencies other than
Canadian dollars. Such Debt Securities are not an appropriate investment for investors who are unsophisticated with respect to foreign currency transactions. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>There is currently no market through which the Debt Securities may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell the Debt Securities
issued hereunder. This may affect the pricing of the Debt Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the securities, and the extent of issuer regulation. Also, it cannot be assured that
a secondary market for trading in the Debt Securities will develop or that any secondary market which does develop will continue. </B></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Although the Debt Securities and the Guarantee may not necessarily be subordinated to any other indebtedness, they are not secured.
Furthermore, although Bell Canada&#146;s and BCE&#146;s various debt instruments restrict the incurrence of secured indebtedness, such indebtedness may, subject to certain conditions, be incurred. In addition, Bell Canada&#146;s and BCE&#146;s
subsidiaries may incur indebtedness. Although BCE is the Guarantor of the Debt Securities that may be issued from time to time hereunder, it is not subject to the limitation on liens and other covenants under the Indentures. Consequently, BCE may,
subject to the limitations and covenants under its own debt instruments, incur substantial additional indebtedness, which could make it more difficult for BCE to fulfill its Guarantee obligations with respect to the Debt Securities. The Debt
Securities will be effectively subordinated to the creditors of Bell Canada&#146;s subsidiaries and the Guarantee will be effectively subordinated to the creditors of BCE&#146;s subsidiaries, in that the right of Bell Canada or BCE, as the case may
be, to participate as a shareholder in the distribution of the assets of any subsidiary upon any such distribution would be subject to the prior claims of the creditors of such subsidiary. </P>

of time or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by the relevant rating agency in the future if in its judgment circumstances so warrant. A revision or withdrawal of such rating may have an adverse effect on the market value of
the Debt Securities. </P>

liability of BCE or Bell Canada and such directors, officers or experts under the United States federal securities laws. BCE and Bell Canada have been advised by external counsel that there is doubt as to the enforceability in a Canadian court in
original actions, or in actions to enforce judgments of United States courts, of civil liabilities predicated upon United States federal securities laws. </P>
