NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO ANY PERSON LOCATED OR RESIDENT IN THE REPUBLIC OF ITALY

Bombardier Inc. today announced that, in connection with its previously announced cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) for Bombardier’s 6.75% Notes due 2012 (CUSIP/ISIN Nos. 097751AG6 / USC10602AG20) (the “6.75% Notes”), 6.30% Notes due 2014 (CUSIP/ISIN Nos. 097751AH4 / USC10602AH03) (the “6.30% Notes” and, collectively with the 6.75% Notes, the “U.S. Dollar Notes”) and Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2013 (Common Code/ISIN No. 027397891 / XS0273978592) (the “Floating Rate Notes” and, collectively with the U.S. Dollar Notes, the “Notes”), which expired at 9:00 a.m., New York City Time, on April 12, 2010 (such date and time, the “Expiration Date”), the depositary and information agent for the U.S. Dollar Notes under the Tender Offer has advised Bombardier that no 6.75% Notes were validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Tender Offer at or prior to the Expiration Date that had not been previously accepted on March 29, 2010 (the “Early Acceptance Date”), and US$337,996,000 aggregate principal amount of the 6.30% Notes has been validly tendered at or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn pursuant to the Tender Offer, and the tender and information agent for the Floating Rate Notes under the Tender Offer has advised Bombardier that €244,408,000 aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes has been validly tendered at or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn pursuant to the Tender Offer. Such amounts, together with the US$398,884,000 aggregate principal amount of Bombardier’s 6.75% Notes previously accepted and purchased by Bombardier as announced on March 30, 2010 (the “Early Payment Date”), represent approximately 73% of the aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Notes outstanding immediately prior to the Early Payment Date, 68% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of 6.30% Notes and 36% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of Floating Rate Notes.

In addition to Bombardier’s early acceptance and purchase of US$398,884,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Notes as announced on March 30, 2010, Bombardier today accepted for purchase (i) US$337,996,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.30% Notes, at a purchase price of US$1,040 for each US$1,000 principal amount of 6.30% Notes validly tendered at or prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City Time, on March 29, 2010 (the “Early Participation Date”), not withdrawn and accepted for purchase, and US$990 for each US$1,000 principal amount of 6.30% Notes validly tendered after the Early Participation Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn and accepted for purchase, and (ii) €196,517,000 aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes (resulting in a 80.44% proration factor, rounded down to the nearest thousand), at a purchase price of €1,000 for each €1,000 principal amount of Floating Rate Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Participation Date, not withdrawn and accepted for purchase, and €980 for each €1,000 principal amount of Floating Rate Notes validly tendered after the Early Participation Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn and accepted for purchase. In addition, all holders of Notes accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the payment date. Bombardier intends to settle payment for the Notes accepted for purchase on the date hereof.

Solely for the purposes of determining the aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes that could be purchased within the Tender Cap, the aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer was converted into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate published by the International Monetary Fund on April 9, 2010, which was €1.00 equals US$1.3384.

In accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer set forth in Bombardier’s Offer to Purchase dated March 15, 2010, as amended on March 15, 2010 and further amended on April 1, 2010 (the “Offer to Purchase”), all 6.75% Notes and 6.30% Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Expiration Date and not validly withdrawn have been accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer, whereas the amount of Floating Rate Notes that have been accepted for purchase as set forth above was determined in accordance with the Acceptance Priority Levels set forth in the Offer to Purchase, as well as proration as a result of the previously announced US$1.0 billion Tender Cap and the Acceptance Priority Levels.

All Floating Rate Notes tendered but not accepted for purchase will be returned promptly, without expense, to tendering holders (or, in the case of Floating Rate Notes tendered by book-entry transfer, such Floating Rate Notes will be promptly credited to the account maintained at the relevant Clearing System from which such Floating Rate Notes were delivered).

Approximately US$151,116,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Notes, US$162,004,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.30% Notes and €482,483,000 aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes will remain outstanding following consummation of the purchase of the Notes accepted under the Tender Offer.
