Bombardier Inc. (TSX: BBD.A) (TSX: BBD.B) today announced that it had
successfully priced its offering of EUR780 million aggregate principal amount of

None of Bombardier or its board of directors, the dealer managers, the tender
agent, depositary or information agents in respect of the Tender Offers
mentioned herein, or the trustees for the respective series of notes subject of
the Tender Offers makes any recommendation that holders tender or refrain from
tendering all or any portion of the principal amount of their notes in the
Tender Offers, and no one has been authorized by us or any of them to make such
a recommendation. Holders must make their own decision as to whether to tender
their notes, and, if so, the principal amount of notes to tender.

Tender Offers to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Tender Offers will
