below, exceeds the Maximum Take-up Date Cash Consideration, then the amount of the <strong>purchase</strong><br />

consideration paid in cash <strong>to</strong> each Shareholder who has elected the Cash Alternative or the<br />

Combination Alternative shall be prorated so that, in the aggregate, the <strong>purchase</strong> consideration paid in<br />

cash <strong>to</strong> all such holders shall be equal <strong>to</strong> the Maximum Take-up Date Cash Consideration less the cash<br />

<strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Shares <strong>to</strong> all such holders shall be equal <strong>to</strong> the Maximum Take-up Date Share<br />

Consideration, and each such holder shall be deemed, for all purposes, <strong>to</strong> have elected the Cash<br />

Alternative in respect of any shares <strong>to</strong> which the Share Alternative or the share component of the<br />

Combination Alternative is deemed not <strong>to</strong> apply and shall receive from the <strong>Offer</strong>ors the balance of<br />

the <strong>purchase</strong> consideration payable under the <strong>Offer</strong>s in cash on the same basis as holders who elect the<br />

Cash Alternative for their Clearnet Shares <strong>to</strong> be taken up on such Take-up Date.<br />
