<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><I>Purchase of Mobilicity brings continuity of service and certainty to over 150,000 wireless customers </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><I>Will exercise option to acquire Shaw&#146;s unused AWS-1 spectrum to meet growing mobile video needs </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Toronto, ON (June 24, 2015) &#151; Rogers Communications will immediately boost speed and quality for wireless customers in BC, Alberta and Southern Ontario
as part of a series of transactions announced today. The transactions mean Rogers is completing the previously announced acquisition of Shaw&#146;s AWS-1 spectrum and acquiring 100% ownership of Mobilicity. The company is also divesting, post
transaction, certain AWS-1 spectrum to WIND Mobile that is contiguous to their spectrum holdings. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;We&#146;re basically adding multiple lanes on our
wireless highway in three key markets overnight,&#148; said Guy Laurence, President and CEO of Rogers Communications. &#147;This means faster speeds and better quality for our customers as they use more and more mobile video.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;The transaction with Rogers provides the best possible outcome for Mobilicity&#146;s customers, dealers and employees,&#148; said Anthony Booth,
President of Mobilicity. &#147;Rogers ensures certainty of service for Mobilicity customers, provides a great network, national coverage and high quality products and services. At the same time, Mobilicity employees will have the opportunity to work
at a great Canadian company in Rogers.&#148;</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The transactions mean Rogers gains significant, previously unused spectrum capacity that works with all LTE
devices today. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;This agreement is great news for our customers and for Canadians. We&#146;re pleased to have worked with the government to put this
unused valuable resource to work,&#148; said Laurence. &#147;We got the spectrum we needed where we needed it for our customers and this keeps Rogers in the leading competitive position across the country.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The purchase of Mobilicity is subject to approval by the Competition Bureau and the Court. The transactions have been approved by Industry Canada. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As per the previously announced terms to complete the Shaw spectrum acquisition, Rogers will pay $100 million in addition to the down payments made when the
agreement was originally announced in January 2013. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The transaction with Mobilicity is supported and was facilitated by The Catalyst Capital Group Inc.,
on behalf of investment funds managed by it, working closely with Rogers on the structuring of the transaction. The $440 million purchase price is offset by tax losses valued at approximately $175 million which Rogers will acquire. The transaction
is subject to working capital adjustments. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the acquisition of spectrum from Shaw and Mobilicity respectively, Rogers and WIND will undertake an
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">AWS-1</FONT> spectrum swap in Southern Ontario to create contiguous spectrum for Rogers. Rogers will also divest certain non-contiguous <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">AWS-1</FONT> spectrum to WIND Mobile in BC,
Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Northern Ontario and Eastern Ontario. </P>
