QBR.A Quebecor Inc

Quebecor Media and the Montreal Impact today announced a 5-year agreement; among other things, the wide-ranging partnership between the two Quebec-based organizations covers sponsorship, media, technology and positioning.

"Quebecor Media is extremely pleased to announce one of its most important sports partnerships to date," said Pierre Karl Peladeau, President and CEO of Quebecor and Quebecor Media. Mr. Peladeau also took the opportunity to pay tribute to Impact President Joey Saputo. "He and his group are responsible for the rebirth of soccer in Montreal, for the magnificent new stadium in which the team plays, and for the fact that the Impact will be joining a first-rate league next year."

"The entire Impact organization is very excited about the partnership we have formed with Quebecor Media and its subsidiaries," said Joey Saputo, President of the Impact. "With this announcement, we can confirm today that all Impact games will be broadcast on television in high definition starting 2012. The relationship with TVA Sports is a logical fit with our drive to expand our presence in the marketplace. This is definitely the most important broadcasting partnership in the Impact's history."

TVA Sports becomes official broadcaster

As of 2012, TVA Sports will be the Impact's official broadcaster and will carry the bulk of the team's regular-season games in Major League Soccer (MLS). And, as Pierre Dion, President and CEO of TVA Group noted, TVA Sports will do more than broadcast the games: "We want to offer rich, varied coverage that gives viewers full information about the Impact and the game of soccer through interviews with players, behind-the-scenes reports, and interviews with the team's owners and with experts."

Technological innovation at the service of soccer and of Quebecers

Videotron will also be a founding partner in the Impact's exciting move into MLS. Videotron will help provide a more hi-tech experience at Saputo Stadium and will apply its creativity by expanding the contacts between the club and the public. "We have two goals in mind: giving fans in the stands the best possible experience during Impact games and helping the team reach its supporters across Quebec by virtual means," said Robert Depatie, President and CEO of Videotron. "Just imagine the opportunities that our multi-platform presence will create on both counts."
