Caution regarding forward-looking statements

This material change report contains forward-looking statements about expected events.
Forward-looking statements include any statements that do not refer to historical facts. They include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the implementation of the Share Split and the increase in the maximum number of common shares TELUS is authorized to issue. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words assumption, goal, guidance, objective, outlook, strategy, target and other similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as aim, anticipate, believe, could, expect, intend, may, plan, predict, seek, should, strive and will.
By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties and are based on assumptions, including assumptions about the receipt of requisite regulatory approvals, future economic conditions and courses of action. These assumptions may ultimately prove to have been inaccurate and, as a result, TELUS’ actual results or events may differ materially from TELUS’ expectations expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements made herein include, but are not limited to, the completion and approval of regulatory filings with the TSX and NYSE.  Many of these factors are beyond TELUS’ control or TELUS’ current expectations or knowledge.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this document describe TELUS’ expectations and are based on TELUS’ assumptions as at the date of this document and are subject to change after this date. Except as required by law, TELUS disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.
This cautionary statement qualifies all of the forward-looking statements in this document.
