condition of the <strong>Offer</strong>s specified under ‘‘Conditions of the <strong>Offer</strong>s’’ in Section 4 of the <strong>Offer</strong>s <strong>to</strong> Purchase, is not<br />

satisfied or waived but subject <strong>to</strong> the provisions as set forth in Section 4 of the <strong>Offer</strong>s <strong>to</strong> Purchase, by giving<br />

written notice thereof (or other communication confirmed in writing) <strong>to</strong> the Depositary at its office in Calgary,<br />

Alberta. The <strong>Offer</strong>ors also reserve the right, in their sole discretion and notwithstanding any other condition of<br />

the <strong>Offer</strong>s, <strong>to</strong> delay taking up and paying for Clearnet Shares in order <strong>to</strong> comply, in whole or in part, with any<br />

applicable Law, including, without limitation, such period of time as may be necessary <strong>to</strong> obtain any necessary<br />

regula<strong>to</strong>ry approval. The <strong>Offer</strong>ors will not, however, take up and pay for any Clearnet Shares deposited under an<br />

<strong>Offer</strong> unless they simultaneously or immediately thereafter take up and pay for all Clearnet Shares then validly<br />

deposited under such <strong>Offer</strong>. Any Clearnet Shares deposited under an <strong>Offer</strong> after the first date on which<br />

Clearnet Shares have been taken up and paid for by the <strong>Offer</strong>ors will be taken up and paid for promptly and in<br />

any event, not later than 10 days after such deposit. The <strong>Offer</strong>ors confirm that their reservation of the right <strong>to</strong><br />

delay payment for Clearnet Shares which they have accepted for payment is limited by the applicable securities<br />

laws which require that an offeror pay the consideration offered or return the tendered securities promptly after<br />

termination or withdrawal of an offer. Subject <strong>to</strong> applicable Law, the <strong>Offer</strong>ors may, in their discretion, during<br />

any subsequent offering period, take up and pay for all such Clearnet Shares then deposited under an <strong>Offer</strong>,<br />

provided that the <strong>Offer</strong>ors agree <strong>to</strong> take up and pay for all additional Clearnet Shares validly<br />

deposited thereafter.<br />

The <strong>Offer</strong>ors will pay for Clearnet Shares validly deposited under an <strong>Offer</strong> and not withdrawn by providing<br />

the Depositary with sufficient funds (by bank transfer or other means satisfac<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>to</strong> the Depositary) and<br />

certificates for <strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Shares for transmittal <strong>to</strong> depositing Shareholders. The Depositary will act as<br />

the agent of persons who have deposited Clearnet Shares in acceptance of the <strong>Offer</strong>s for the purposes of<br />

receiving payment and share certificates from the <strong>Offer</strong>ors and transmitting such payment and share certificates<br />

<strong>to</strong> such persons. Receipt of payment by the Depositary will be deemed <strong>to</strong> constitute receipt of payment by<br />

persons depositing Clearnet Shares. No fractional <strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Shares will be issued pursuant <strong>to</strong> the<br />

<strong>Offer</strong>s. In lieu of a fractional <strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Share, a Shareholder accepting an <strong>Offer</strong> will receive a cash<br />

payment determined on the basis of an amount equal <strong>to</strong> the Average Price multiplied by the fractional share<br />

amount. Under no circumstances will interest accrue or be paid by the <strong>Offer</strong>ors or the Depositary on the<br />

<strong>purchase</strong> price of the Clearnet Shares <strong>purchase</strong>d by the <strong>Offer</strong>ors, regardless of any delay in making<br />

such payment.<br />

Settlement with each Shareholder who shall have validly deposited and not withdrawn Clearnet Shares<br />

under an <strong>Offer</strong> will be effected by the Depositary by forwarding a cheque, payable in Canadian funds,<br />

representing the cash payment for such securities (including any fractional share amount) and with a certificate<br />

representing the <strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Shares <strong>to</strong> which such Shareholder is entitled provided that, in the case of<br />

the <strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Shares, the person is a resident of a province of Canada or another jurisdiction in which<br />

the <strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Shares may be lawfully delivered without further action by the <strong>Offer</strong>ors. Unless<br />

otherwise directed in the Letter of Transmittal, any such cheque and any such share certificate will be issued in<br />

the name of the registered holder of Clearnet Shares so deposited. Unless the person who deposits Clearnet<br />

Shares instructs the Depositary <strong>to</strong> hold such cheque and such share certificate for pick-up by checking the<br />

appropriate box in the Letter of Transmittal, such cheque and such share certificate will be forwarded by first<br />

class mail <strong>to</strong> such person at the address specified in the Letter of Transmittal. If no address is specified therein,<br />

such cheque and such share certificate will be forwarded <strong>to</strong> the address of the holder as shown on the share<br />

register maintained by Clearnet. Cheques and share certificates mailed in accordance with this paragraph will be<br />

deemed <strong>to</strong> have been delivered at the time of mailing.<br />

Depositing Shareholders will not be obligated <strong>to</strong> pay brokerage commissions if they accept an <strong>Offer</strong> by<br />

depositing their Clearnet Shares directly with the Depositary or the U.S. Forwarding Agent or if they use the<br />

services of the Dealer Managers or of a member of the soliciting dealer group <strong>to</strong> accept the <strong>Offer</strong>. See ‘‘Other<br />

Matters Relating <strong>to</strong> the <strong>Offer</strong>s — Depositary and U.S. Forwarding Agent’’ and ‘‘— Financial Advisors, Dealer<br />

Managers and Soliciting Dealer Group’’ in the Circular. If, however, the <strong>TELUS</strong> Non-Voting Shares <strong>to</strong> be<br />

received pursuant <strong>to</strong> the <strong>Offer</strong>s are <strong>to</strong> be issued <strong>to</strong>, or if the certificates for Clearnet Shares not deposited or<br />

<strong>purchase</strong>d are <strong>to</strong> be registered in the name of, any person other than the registered owner, or if certificates for<br />

Clearnet Shares are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the Letter of<br />

Transmittal, the amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered owner or such other person)<br />
