Forward- looking information may relate to COGECO’s future outlook and anticipated events, business, operations, financial performance, financial condition or results and, in some cases, can be identified by terminology such as "may"; "will"; "should"; "expect"; "plan"; "anticipate"; "believe"; "intend"; "estimate"; "predict"; "potential"; "continue"; "foresee", "ensure" or other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In particular, statements regarding the Company’s future operating results and economic performance and its objectives and strategies are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain factors and assumptions including expected growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities, which COGECO believes are reasonable as of the current date. While management considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to the Company, they may prove to be incorrect. The Company cautions the reader that the current adverse economic conditions make forward-looking information and the underlying assumptions subject to greater uncertainty and that, consequently, they may not materialize, or the results may significantly differ from the Company’s expectations. It is impossible for COGECO to predict with certainty the impact that the current economic downturn may have on future results. Forward-looking information is also subject to certain factors, including those described in the “Uncertainties and Main Risk Factors” section starting on page 17 of the management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) that could cause actual results to differ materially from what COGECO currently expects. These factors include technological changes, changes in market and competition, governmental or regulatory developments, general economic conditions, the development of new products and services, the enhancement of existing products and services, and the introduction of competing products having technological or other advantages, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Therefore, future events and results may vary significantly from what management currently foresees. The reader should not place undue importance on forward-looking information and should not rely upon this information as of any other date. While management may elect to do so, the Company is under no obligation (and expressly disclaims any such obligation), and does not undertake to update or alter this information before the next quarter, except as required by law. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s management’s discussion and analysis, consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Throughout this discussion, all amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

That said, the cable distribution and Québec radio broadcasting industries showed resiliency amid these difficult circumstances. On a consolidated basis, operating income before amortization (1) grew by 18.5% and the operating margin (1) increased to 42.5% from 40.5%. Free cash flow (1) increased by 0.6% despite a significant increase in capital expenditures in order to support RGU growth in the cable sector. The dividend payout for the fiscal year rose 14.3% to $0.32 per share from $0.28 per share in 2008. In Canada and in Portugal, the economic crisis was particularly hard on the automobile industry, which is a player in several markets served by our cable distribution subsidiary, Cogeco Cable Inc. Many other industries were also affected, leading to job losses, a decline in confidence and a heightened

    President s Message Change, evolution, ability to adapt - these are all key to the survival of the content production industry today. The new regulations of the Canada Media Fund have impacted the basic principles of television program financing, by requiring, among other things, a second platform for the exhibition of content. Advances in new technologies and new patterns of audience viewing habits require that we rethink our own practices and revise our procedures in order to operate effectively in this evolving environment. In these conditions, the ability to adapt becomes a fundamental condition for success. The Cogeco Fund has shown, year after year, that it can indeed adapt to change and has not hesitated to modify its guidelines in order to respond to the growing needs of the industry. The pre-development program, created in 2008, is an example. The Fund has received 123 applications for funding in this pre-development program in the past two years, while receiving an average of thirty requests per year for development of series and MOW’s. The innovative Corporate Theatrical Feature Film Development Program has also been widely appreciated with nearly 200 requests for funding from feature film production companies across the country since its inception in 1999. Last year, the Cogeco Fund expanded its mandate to include drama series funding in order to collaborate with the Independent Production Fund to meet the demand for drama series financing. The Cogeco Fund approved a total of $2,750,000 for the production of 14 drama series and MOW’s destined for both private and public broadcasters.

    Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2005-89 Ottawa, 9 September 2005 Tools to promote and improve the visibility of services whose national distribution is required pursuant to section 9(1)(h) of the Broadcasting Act In this public notice, the Commission sets out its determinations regarding appropriate mechanisms, including the use of local availabilities, for the promotion of services whose national distribution is required pursuant to section 9(1)(h) of the Broadcasting Act. “Local availabilities,” in the context of this notice, refers to the approximately two minutes per hour of air time set aside in the programming of certain U.S. satellite programming services for use by distributors in the United States. The licensees of most broadcasting distribution undertakings in Canada are authorized, by condition of licence, to use these local availabilities for the distribution of promotional material. Background 1. Pursuant to section 9(1)(h) of the Broadcasting Act (the Act), the Commission “may require any licensee who is authorized to carry on a distribution undertaking to carry, on such terms and conditions as the Commission deems appropriate, programming services specified by the Commission.” The Commission has used this authority to require the distribution of four services as part of the basic service offered by broadcasting distribution undertakings (BDUs). The four services are: TVA, the French-language television network service operated by TVA Groupe Inc.; the satellite-to-cable programming services APTN and CPAC operated by Aboriginal Peoples Television Network Incorporated and Cable Public Affairs Channel Inc., respectively; and the audio programming service “VoicePrint” operated by The National Broadcast Reading Service Inc.

    Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2005-117 Ottawa, 5 December 2005 Ownership applications granted approval In this notice, the Commission publishes a list of transfers of ownership and changes to the effective control of broadcasting undertakings that it has authorized during the period 1 September 2005 to 31 October 2005 pursuant to its streamlined procedure, and the details regarding these transactions. 1. The Commission has a streamlined procedure for its consideration of applications involving transfers of ownership and changes in the effective control of broadcasting undertakings. Under this procedure, and on a case-by-case basis, the Commission may approve such an ownership application without first having issued a public notice provided that: a) its examination of the application reveals the presence of no significant policy concern; and b) the Commission is convinced that approval would be consistent with its approvals of previous applications. 2. Where these two conditions are met, the Commission is generally satisfied that a process initiated by a public notice is not required in the public interest, and would unnecessarily delay implementation of the transaction contemplated by the applicant. 3. In the appendix to this public notice, the Commission publishes a list of transfers of ownership and changes to the effective control of broadcasting undertakings that it has authorized during the period 1 September 2005 to 31 October 2005 pursuant to its streamlined procedure, and the details regarding these transactions.
