Quebecor Inc. (TSX:QBR.A)(TSX:QBR.B) announced today that it has
completed its previously announced two-for-one stock split of the
Corporation's Class A Multiple Voting Shares and Class B
Subordinate Voting Shares. Each Quebecor shareholder of record on
August 14, 2013, received today one additional share for each share
owned. The Class A and Class B shares will stop trading on the
Toronto Stock Exchange on a due bill basis at the close of business
today. Consequently, the Class A and Class B shares will commence
trading on a two-for-one split basis on the Toronto Stock Exchange
at the opening of business on Friday, August 16, 2013.
Quebecor shareholders do not need to take any action as the
Corporation has recently moved to a simple Direct Registration
System. Quebecor's transfer agent, Canadian Stock Transfer Company
Inc. (CST), will send to Class A and Class B registered
shareholders residing in Canada a statement of Direct Registration
System indicating the number of additional shares that they receive
as a result of the stock split. This will allow shareholders
residing in Canada to hold their additional shares in the book
entry form with CST without having a physical share certificate
issued.
