Starting December 1, 2007 and until November 31, 2012, holders of Series 3 Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive quarterly fixed dividends at an annual rate of 6.13% subject to being declared by the Board of Directors of Quebecor World and as permitted by applicable law.

It would seem that the market emphatically agrees with my assessment that the fixed-rate was the way to go for the next five years!
