COGECO'S BREEZELINE TO LAUNCH MOBILE SERVICE IN THE UNITED STATES

Cogeco Communications Inc.'s United States business unit, Breezeline, will be adding mobile phone services to its product offering. Breezeline offers broadband services in 13 states.

Breezeline mobile will enable Cogeco to offer its Breezeline customers additional bundling opportunities, bolstering the company's already robust value proposition and further enhancing its competitive position in the United States. Breezeline mobile will be available to Breezeline's broadband customers starting this spring through a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) agreement with an industry-leading mobile network.

"We are thrilled to announce the launch of mobile services within our Breezeline operating regions," said Frederic Perron, president and chief executive officer of Cogeco. "This important new service will not only help us expand our product offering, but will also allow us to better meet the growing needs of our customers who wish to bundle a flexible and reliable mobility offering with their broadband service."

"Our customers have told us they find value in bundled services and prefer doing business with Breezeline because of the exceptional customer experience," said Frank van der Post, president of Breezeline. "Breezeline mobile will provide choice, reliable network coverage, flexible plans and bundled savings for Breezeline customers."
