Ogilvy Renault LLP Represents Montréal Exchange in its Original Stock Exchange Listing

March 27, 2007

Montréal - Today, the common shares of Montréal Exchange (MX), Canada's financial derivatives exchange, began trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol MXX.  Ogilvy Renault LLP is proud to have advised Montréal Exchange in this major transaction. The original stock exchange listing, and MX's change of status from private company to a publicly traded one, was done without a primary or secondary offering and represented an intense three and a half month effort by two small teams from MX and Ogilvy Renault. 

After the first few hours of trading, MX market capitalization stood at approximately C$1.46 billion.

The Ogilvy Renault lawyers involved in this matter were:  Marc Lacourcière, Andrew Bleau, Christine Dubé and Peter Wiazowski, with assistance from Lise Bergeron, Jules Charette and Sophie Kilburn.
