BELL CANADA RENEWS MEDIUM TERM NOTES (MTN) PROGRAM

BCE Inc.'s Bell Canada today filed a prospectus supplement to a short form base shelf prospectus dated April 2, 2026, with the various securities regulatory authorities in all provinces of Canada to renew Bell's MTN program.

The MTN program will enable Bell to offer MTN debentures from time to time until May 2, 2029. The MTN debentures will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by BCE. Consistent with past practice, the MTN program was renewed to continue to provide Bell with financial flexibility and efficient access to the Canadian capital markets.

Bell also entered into a dealer agreement under which certain dealers have agreed to act as agents with respect to future offerings of the MTN debentures.
