(i) Conversion Privilege: Any holder of Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares may at any time and from time to time, convert, subject to (i) the terms and provisions hereof, (ii) the constrained share provisions applicable to voting shares of the Corporation, and (iii) the result of such conversion not causing the Corporation to cease to be a "qualified corporation" within the meaning of the Canadian Telecommunication Common Carrier Ownership and Control Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Telecommunications Act (Canada), all or some of the Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares held by such holder into fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares, Voting Participating Preferred Shares, Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares or Redeemable Common Shares at the election of such holder, on the basis of one Common Share, Voting Participating Preferred Share, Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares or Redeemable Common Shares for each Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Share so converted.

A holder of Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares upon the Automatic Conversion Date shall not be required to surrender certificates representing Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares, and all certificates representing Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares shall thereafter represent an equal number of Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares and the Corporation shall thereafter treat such certificates as representing Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares for all purposes. However, the registered holder of certificates representing Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares shall be entitled to request the Corporation to replace such certificates for certificates representing Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares, and as promptly as practicable after such request and surrender of such Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Share certificates at the head office of the Corporation, the Corporation shall, without charge, issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, to the holder of the certificates for Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares so surrendered, certificates issued in the name of such holder representing the identical number of Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares as were represented by the certificates for Redeemable Non-Voting Participating Preferred Shares so surrendered.

The Directors shall declare and the Corporation shall pay all dividends on the Senior Preferred Shares to the full extent that they are legally entitled to do so, and the Corporation shall not take any action solely to prevent it from being legally entitled to do so. If the Directors determine that any Annual Dividend Amount may not legally be declared, such Annual Dividend. Amount, or the portion thereof which may not legally be declared, shall cumulate from the date on which such annual dividend should have been paid until such dividend is paid in full and at the same rate as is then otherwise payable on the Senior Preferred Shares, and shall be compounded annually.

If the Directors determine to pay any portion or all of any dividend in cash, all such cash dividends shall be paid in the manner provided in By-law Number 1 of the Corporation.

Each holder of Senior Preferred Shares to whom an offer of redemption is made may accept such offer of redemption by delivering to the Corporation a redemption acceptance notice, in the form provided by the Corporation with its offer of redemption, within 45 days of the date of the Corporation’s offer of redemption, in which case all Senior Preferred Shares in respect of which an accepted offer of redemption has been received by the Corporation within 45 days of the date of the Corporation’s offer of redemption shall be called for redemption by the Corporation with effect from October 31, 2012 (and such date shall be the redemption date referred to in clause (g) below).

The certificate(s) for such Senior Preferred Shares shall thereupon be cancelled and the Senior Preferred Shares represented thereby shall thereupon be redeemed and cancelled. Such payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the holders of Senior Preferred Shares, or if no such account has been designated, then by delivery to such holder of a cheque payable at any branch of the Corporations bankers for the time being in Canada. From and after the redemption date, holders of Senior Preferred Shares called for redemption shall not be entitled to exercise any of their rights as holders of Senior Preferred Shares unless payment of the said redemption price is not made on the redemption date, in which case the rights of the holders of the said Senior Preferred Shares shall remain unaffected.

The Corporation shall have the right, at any time on or after the date for redemption of Senior Preferred Shares or the mailing or delivery of notice of its intention to redeem Senior Preferred Shares, to deposit the redemption price of the Senior Preferred Shares so called for redemption, or of such of the Senior Preferred Shares which are represented by certificates which have not at the date of such deposit been surrendered by the holders thereof in connection with such redemption, to a special account maintained by the Corporation with a branch of a Canadian chartered bank or trust company designated by the Corporation in the notice of redemption (the "Trustee") which has offices in the City of Ottawa, to be paid without interest to or to the order of the respective holders of Senior Preferred Shares whose shares have been called for redemption, upon presentation and surrender to the Trustee of the certificates representing such shares. Upon such deposit being made or upon the date specified for redemption, whichever is later, the Senior Preferred Shares in respect of which such deposit shall have been made shall be demeed to have been redeemed and the rights of the holders thereof after such deposit or such redemption date, as the case may be, shall be limited to receiving their proportion of the amount so deposited without interest, upon presentation and surrender to the Trustee of the certificate or certificates representing the Senior Preferred Shares being redeemed. Any interest allowed on any such deposit shall belong to the Corporation. Redemption moneys that are represented by a cheque that has not been presented for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed (including moneys held on deposit in a special account as provided for above) for a period of six years from the date specified for redemption shall be forfeited to the Corporation. If less than all Senior Preferred Shares represented by a certificate are redeemed, the holder shall be entitled to receive, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate representing Senior Preferred Shares of such holder which have not been redeemed.

- 25 -

No Senior Preferred Shares acquired by the Corporation shall be reissued, and all such shares shall be cancelled, retired and eliminated from the Senior Preferred Shares which the Corporation shall be authorized to issue.

(The foregoing prohibition is referred to in this Schedule B as the "non-Canadian share constraint".)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a registered holder of suspended voting shares shall have the right to transfer such voting shares on any securities register of the Corporation on a basis that does not result in contravention of the non-Canadian share constraint or may convert such voting shares into non-voting shares.

(b) whether or not any shareholder's declaration has been requested or received by the Corporation, only if the directors of the Corporation believe and have reasonable grounds for believing that they have sufficient information to make the directors' determination, that the consequences of the directors' determination would not be inequitable to those affected by it and that it would be impractical, under all the circumstances, to request or to await the receipt of any shareholder's declaration.

7.3 In administering the provisions of this Schedule B, including, without limitation, in making any directors' determination in accordance with subsection 7.2 or otherwise, the directors of the Corporation may rely on any information on which the directors consider it reasonable to rely in the circumstances.

The directors of the Corporation shall determine from time to time written guidelines with respect to the nature of the shareholder's declaration to be requested, the times at which shareholder's declarations are to be requested and any other relevant matters relating to shareholder's declarations.

 - 5 -

8.2 A shareholder's declaration shall be in the form from time to time determined by the directors of the Corporation pursuant to subsection 8.1 and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, may be required to be in the form of a simple declaration in writing or a statutory declaration under the Canada Evidence Act. Without limiting the generality of its contents, any shareholder's declaration may be required to contain information with respect to:

(a) whether the person is the beneficial owner of or controls particular voting securities or whether any other person is the beneficial owner of or controls those voting securities; and

(b) whether the person or any other beneficial owner of the voting securities is a Canadian or non-Canadian.
