waived) have been satisfied or waived. We will pay for Clearnet Shares taken up under the <strong>Offer</strong>s in accordance<br />

Conditions of the <strong>Offer</strong>s<br />

We will have the right <strong>to</strong> withdraw the <strong>Offer</strong>s and will not be required <strong>to</strong> take up and pay for any Clearnet<br />

Shares deposited under the <strong>Offer</strong>s unless all of the conditions of the <strong>Offer</strong>s contained in Section 4 of the <strong>Offer</strong>s<br />

<strong>to</strong> Purchase are satisfied. These conditions include there being validly deposited under the <strong>Offer</strong>s and not<br />

withdrawn prior <strong>to</strong> the expiration of the <strong>Offer</strong>s that number of Clearnet Shares which represents at least 662 ⁄3%<br />

of each class of the Clearnet Shares outstanding on a fully-diluted basis, that all required regula<strong>to</strong>ry approvals be<br />

received on terms which will not have a material adverse effect on <strong>TELUS</strong> or Clearnet or all waiting periods<br />

with respect there<strong>to</strong> shall have expired; that <strong>TELUS</strong> shall have determined, acting reasonably, that no action or<br />

proceeding or law or regulation shall have been taken or proposed that prevents or would prevent us from<br />

completing the <strong>Offer</strong>s or any Compulsory Acquisition or Subsequent Acquisition Transaction or would have a<br />

material adverse effect on Clearnet; that <strong>TELUS</strong> shall have determined, acting reasonably, that neither Clearnet<br />

nor any of its subsidiaries, associates or other entities in which it has a material interest have taken any action or<br />

disclosed any previously undisclosed actions which would have a material adverse effect on Clearnet; that all<br />

third party consents necessary on a change of control the failure of which <strong>to</strong> obtain would have a material<br />

adverse effect on Clearnet shall have been obtained on terms satisfac<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>to</strong> <strong>TELUS</strong>; that the representations<br />

and warranties of the Clearnet Shareholders in the Shareholders Agreements shall be true and the covenants<br />

and all obligations thereunder shall have been complied with unless any non-performance would not give rise <strong>to</strong><br />

a material adverse change or a material adverse effect on the <strong>Offer</strong>s; that the board of direc<strong>to</strong>rs of Clearnet shall<br />

not have changed or withdrawn their recommendation <strong>to</strong> the Shareholders; the representations and warranties<br />

of Clearnet in the Support Agreement shall be correct and Clearnet shall have complied with its covenants<br />

under the Support Agreement, unless the failure or breach of which would not have a material effect on<br />

Clearnet or materially impair our ability <strong>to</strong> acquire the Clearnet Shares; there not having been any change in the<br />

business, operations, assets, financial condition, rights or permits of Clearnet and its Subsidiaries which in the<br />

opinion of <strong>TELUS</strong> or the Banks would have a material adverse effect on Clearnet; and neither <strong>TELUS</strong> nor the<br />

Banks becoming aware of any untrue statement of a material fact or omission <strong>to</strong> state a material fact that would<br />

make any document filed by Clearnet with any regula<strong>to</strong>ry body misleading. See ‘‘Conditions of the <strong>Offer</strong>s’’ in<br />

Section 4 of the <strong>Offer</strong>s <strong>to</strong> Purchase.<br />

Acquisition of Shares not Deposited <strong>to</strong> the <strong>Offer</strong>s<br />

If an <strong>Offer</strong> is accepted by the holders of not less than 90% of a particular class of Clearnet Shares (other<br />

than those owned by us on the date of the <strong>Offer</strong>s), we currently intend, <strong>to</strong> the extent possible, <strong>to</strong> acquire the<br />

remaining Clearnet Shares of that class pursuant <strong>to</strong> the compulsory acquisition provisions of the CBCA. If we<br />

take up and pay for Clearnet Shares validly tendered under an <strong>Offer</strong> and acquire less than such percentage of a<br />

particular class thereof or the compulsory acquisition provisions of the CBCA are otherwise unavailable, we<br />

currently intend <strong>to</strong> consider other means of acquiring, directly or indirectly, all of the Clearnet Shares of the<br />

particular class available in accordance with applicable law, including a Subsequent Acquisition Transaction. See<br />

‘‘Acquisition of Clearnet Shares Not Deposited Under the <strong>Offer</strong>s’’ in the Circular.<br />
