TELUS announces pricing of US debt offering

US$750 million notes with 4.60 per cent interest rate maturing in 2048

Vancouver, B.C. — TELUS announced today an offering of US$750 million senior unsecured notes with a 30-year maturity (the “notes”). The notes are being offered through a syndicate of underwriters led by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, RBC Capital Markets, LLC, TD Securities (USA) LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC. Closing of the offering is expected to occur on or about June 12, 2018, subject to customary closing conditions.

The notes were priced at US$98.760 per US $100 principal amount for an effective yield of 4.677 per cent per annum and will mature on November 16, 2048.

The net proceeds will be used to repay outstanding indebtedness, including outstanding commercial paper, and for general corporate purposes.

The offering is being made in the United States pursuant to a prospectus supplement and accompanying short form base shelf prospectus dated May 17, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of an effective shelf registration statement on Form F-10. The notes are not being offered in Canada or to any resident of Canada.

This media release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities in any jurisdiction. The securities being offered have not been approved or disapproved by any Canadian or United States securities regulatory authority, nor has any authority passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of the short form base shelf prospectus or the prospectus supplement.

Copies of the short form base shelf prospectus and the prospectus supplement relating to the offering of the notes filed with securities regulatory authorities in British Columbia, Canada and the United States may be obtained from the Chief Legal Officer of TELUS at 510 W. Georgia St., 23rd Floor, Vancouver, British Columbia V6B 0M3 (telephone 604-695-6420).
