ARTICLE 3
TERM AND MINIMUM TERM

3.1 Term and Minimum Term

(a) This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier as provided in this Agreement, shall continue in effect until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial Term” and, together with any Renewal Term, the “Term”).  The Initial Term shall automatically be extended for successive one (1) year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either Party gives written notice of non-extension to the other Party at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term.

(b) The Minimum Term for each Service at a Service Address is specified in the Service Schedule or Service Order that applies to the Service. Unless otherwise specified in the Service Schedule or Service Order, the Minimum Term for all Services at a Service Address begins on the date all units of all Services at the Service Address have been installed by TELUS.

(c) Unless otherwise specified in the Service Schedule each Service being provided by TELUS to TI at a Service Address as of the Effective Date is being contracted as of the Effective Date on a month to month basis. Unless otherwise specified in the Service Schedule or Service Order any other Service provided at a Service Address after the Effective Date will be contracted for the Minimum Term indicated in the Service Schedule or Service Order and automatically continue after the Minimum Term on a month-to-month basis on the same terms and conditions.  Where a Service is being provided on a month to month basis:

(i) TELUS may terminate that Service at the Service Address by giving ninety (90) days’ advance notice to TI, and

(ii) TELUS may change the charges applicable to that Service at the Service Address, by giving one hundred and twenty (120) days’ advance notice to TI.

(d) Expiration or termination of a particular Service will not, in and of itself, result in the termination of any other Service or of this Agreement.  If any Minimum Term for any Service extends beyond the expiration of the Term of this Agreement, it is the intention of the Parties that, notwithstanding any such expiration of this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect but only as to the Service so affected and only until the

10

expiration of the Minimum Term specified in the applicable Service Schedule or Service Order.

To the extent TELUS fails to meet any TIDS Performance Standard set out in this Agreement, and where such failure results in TI paying out a service credit or other form of service penalty to a Transferred TIDS Customer (a “Service Level Payment Obligation”), TELUS shall reimburse TI for the applicable Service Level Payment Obligation in proportion to TELUS’ relative responsibility with respect to the Performance Standard failure; provided however that the total of all such reimbursements, if any, during the Term will not exceed an amount equal to twelve (12) months’ worth of Fees for the Service(s) for which such failures relate even where as a result of the failures TI pays out service credits or other forms of service penalty to one or more Transferred TIDS Customers which is in excess of such amount.

4.4 Non-Exclusive

This Agreement is non-exclusive and does not in any way (i) limit TI’s right to contract with any other Person for the provision of services similar or identical to the Services, or for the provision of other products or services to TI, or (ii) limit TELUS’ ability to provide services similar or identical to the Services, or to provide any other products or services, to other customers of TELUS, in each case except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement.

4.5 New Services

If TI elects to procure New Services from TELUS, TI shall make such request using the Change Management Procedures and the New Services shall be contracted using the Change Management Procedures. Such New Services (including without limitation the description and Fees) will be described in a draft service schedule prepared by TELUS.  When the draft service schedule has been agreed to by the Parties, it will become a Service Schedule forming part of this Agreement under Schedule A.

ARTICLE 5
CHANGE IN SERVICES

5.1 Change in Services

At any time, either Party may request a Change.  All Changes must be initiated through the change management procedures set forth in this Article 5 (the “Change Management Procedures”), unless otherwise specified herein, by submitting to the other Party a written notice including all relevant information reasonably required for the proper consideration of such Change (each, a “Change Request”).

Where TI is requesting the addition of Services, under a Service Schedule, such Services may be described in a Solution Details document which will be added to the Agreement to the applicable Service Schedule using the Change Order process set out below.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any changes where the applicable Service Schedule expressly excludes the Change Order process set forth below or provides for an alternative Change Order process or means to document an applicable change (i.e. Solution Details document, Service Order or amendment) are not subject to the change management procedures set forth in this Article 5.

5.2 Change Request

Following the delivery of a Change Request, the following provisions will apply:

(a) upon receipt of a Change Request from TI, TELUS will prepare a proposal (the “Change Proposal”) within the earlier of: (i) fifteen (15) Business Days (or such longer or shorter period of time as agreed to by the Parties), or (ii)  where the Change Request relates to a service being provided by TI under a contract with a Transferred TIDS Customer a number of Business Days which allows TI to comply with any mandated timeframe in the applicable contract with the Transferred TIDS Customer for providing a proposal to the Transferred TIDS Customer, which timeframe TI will communicate to TELUS as part of the Change Request.

The Change Proposal will include a description of the impact of the proposed Change on the following (to the extent applicable having regard to the nature of the proposed Change):

(i) the cost to implement the Change;

(ii) the time required to implement the Change;

(iii) any revisions to the rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement relating to the Services affected by the Change;

(iv) a description of the Services to be provided, assuming implementation of the Change;

(v) any changes to the Performance Standards;

13

(vi) any increase or decrease to the Fees; and

(vii) any other relevant matter related to this Agreement that will be materially impacted.

(b) If TELUS initiates the Change Request, then TELUS will prepare and include a Change Proposal with the Change Request.

(c) Any Change Proposal with respect to New Services will include a detailed description of any transitional or preparatory activities (including the acquisition or upgrading by TELUS of assets for use in Canada or the United States and the hiring or re-deployment by TELUS of employees or consultants) required in order to implement the New Services, and the incremental costs associated with such activities. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in no circumstance will TELUS be required to acquire or hold assets outside of Canada or the United States for purposes of this Agreement. To the extent that such costs would not have been incurred by TELUS were it not for the implementation of the New Services, and to the extent that they are not otherwise factored into the Fees payable for the New Services, then, if and to the extent that the Change Proposal is approved by TI and the New Services are implemented, TELUS may require that they be reimbursed by TI, in whole or in part, on a cost-recovery basis, without markup.

(d) TI will provide TELUS with a written response to the Change Proposal within (i) ten (10) Business Days (or such longer or shorter period of time as agreed to by the Parties) of receipt of the Change Proposal from TELUS, or (ii) where the Change was initiated by TI and relates to a service being provided by TI under a contract with a Transferred TIDS Customer, a number of Business Days which allows the parties to comply with any mandated timeframe in the contract with the Transferred TIDS Customer for implementation, which timeframe TI will communicate to TELUS as part of its written response, indicating TI’s approval of the Change Proposal, its rejection of the Change Proposal (indicating its reasons), the terms of a counter proposal acceptable to TI or notice of additional time required by TI to consider the Change Proposal.

(e) Any Change Proposal approved by TI without modification, or any counter-proposal made by TI and accepted by TELUS, will constitute a Change Order, and TELUS will implement the Change in accordance with the particulars of the Change Order.

(f) If the Parties disagree on any matter relating to a Change Request the matter will be treated as a Dispute, to be resolved pursuant to the Dispute Resolution Process, up to but not including arbitration. If the Parties are unable to settle the Dispute through the Dispute Resolution Process, the Change Request will be deemed to have been rejected.

5.3 Change Orders

(a) A Change Request will become a “Change Order” when the requirements of the procedures to consider such Change Request set out in this Article 5 have been satisfied, and the Change Request is approved by the Parties, where such approval is required pursuant to this Article 5.

14

(b) If the Parties proceed with a Change Order (whether as the result of a Change Request ), then the Change Order will constitute an amendment to this Agreement and/or the applicable Schedule.  From and after the effective date of a Change Order, this Agreement including any applicable Schedule will be interpreted as having been amended by the Change Order.

(c) Any Dispute with respect to a Change, including but not limited to any Fee adjustment required as a result of a Change, shall be treated as a Dispute and dealt with in accordance with the Dispute Resolution Process, up to but not including arbitration.

ARTICLE 6
FEES

6.1 Guiding Principles in Establishing the Fees

The Fees payable by TI to TELUS pursuant to this Agreement have been and shall be established on an arm’s length/fair market value basis, in line with competitive prices for similar services under similar conditions between unrelated parties, taking into account any normalizing adjustments that may be appropriate to take account of the particular deal terms contained herein.  To the extent that comparable third party pricing information was or is not available, the Fees for the applicable Services have been and shall be established on a full cost-plus recovery basis (including direct costs and indirect overhead costs).

If TELUS and TI subsequently mutually determine, or if a Governmental Authority issues, or proposes to issue, assessments or reassessments of additional liability for Taxes or in respect of any other matter by reason of asserting that any Fee paid hereunder is less than or greater than the price that would have been agreed to between persons dealing at arm’s length (a “proposed adjustment”), then the relevant Fee shall be increased or decreased as necessary but only to the extent that the Fee so revised is (a) acceptable to the Parties hereto, or (b) established by the Governmental Authority or a court of competent jurisdiction (after all relevant objection or appeal rights have been exhausted or all time periods for appeal have expired without appeals having been taken) to be the price that would have been agreed to between persons dealing at arm’s length (a “final resolution”). Where any Fee paid hereunder relates to a Service that is resupplied by a Party to a non-resident, any proposed adjustment or final resolution in respect of the Service that is resupplied to a non-resident shall be taken into account in determining the amount of any proposed adjustment or final resolution with respect to that Service under this paragraph. Each Party agrees to promptly notify the other Party of the details of (i) any proposed adjustment issued by the Governmental Authority, and (ii) any final resolution of any such proposed adjustment (including in each case in respect of a resupply of a Service by a Party to a non-resident).

If a particular Fee is varied in the circumstances described in the preceding paragraph, then the Parties shall take such steps as may be necessary to reflect properly an appropriate adjustment to the Fee as varied.

15

6.2 Fees

(a) In consideration of TELUS providing the Services, TI shall pay to TELUS the Fees set forth in Schedule A, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 6.1, Section 6.3 and Section 6.4, and all applicable Taxes and Regulatory Fees. Except as otherwise specified in any Service Schedule under or addendum to Schedule A that is agreed to pursuant to the Change Management Procedures describing New Services, the first invoice for any New Service will include the one-time charges, if any, set forth in the applicable Change Order, as described in Section 5.2(c).

(b) TI shall reimburse TELUS for actual out-of-pocket expenses which are reasonable and necessary for TELUS to incur in order to perform the Services in question, provided that such payments shall not exceed the limits, if any, set forth in the applicable portion of Schedule A, and provided that TELUS submits reasonable supporting documentation with respect to such pass-through expenses.

(c) Except for the Fees and other charges expressly provided for in this Agreement, and except as otherwise set forth in Schedule A, TI shall not be responsible for any fees, charges or expenses incurred by TELUS.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party will be responsible for its cost of providing all facilities, personnel, training, supplies and other resources as are necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

6.3 Invoicing and Payment

(a) TELUS and TI agree that:

(i) where the Services are delivered in Canada or elsewhere (excluding the United States), all applicable invoices will be denominated and delivered by TELUS in Canadian dollars and invoiced amounts will be paid by TI in Canadian dollars; and

(ii) where the Services are delivered in the United States, all applicable invoices will be denominated and delivered by TELUS in Canadian dollars and invoiced amounts will be paid by TI in Canadian or United States dollars,

in accordance with Section 6.3(b) below.

(b) Within fifteen (15) Business Days after the end of each month, or at such other time as may be agreed in the applicable Service Schedule, TELUS shall deliver an invoice to TI by email or any other method agreed to by the Parties, for the Services covered in a Service Schedule and delivered by TELUS in the immediately preceding month. TI shall, subject to Section 6.4, pay the amount due in full, without deduction or set-off, within sixty (60) days following receipt of the invoice, by electronic funds transfer or any other means mutually acceptable to the Parties. TI shall pay a late payment charge of 2% per month (compounded to 26.82% per year), calculated from the billing date, on any amounts not received by TELUS by the due date.

16

6.4 Fee Disputes

(a) If TI wishes to dispute an invoice, it shall do so through the Dispute Resolution Process. TI shall promptly advise TELUS of the amount of the invoice that TI considers to be in Dispute, together with a reasonably detailed description of the Dispute, and will promptly pay any undisputed portion.

(b) Payment by TI shall not preclude TI from contesting any Fees TI believes to be improper or incorrect; and acceptance by TELUS of any partial payment will not constitute a waiver by TELUS of any claim that it may have to receive full payment of the applicable amount.  Any such claims, whether by TI or by TELUS, shall be dealt with pursuant to Section 6.4(a) or the Dispute Resolution Process.

6.5 Taxes and Regulatory Fees

(a) The Fees do not include any Taxes or Regulatory Fees payable by TI under this Agreement.

(b) TELUS will separately itemize for TI, in writing, all Taxes and Regulatory Fees (if any) payable by TI, unless otherwise specified or required by applicable Laws. TI shall pay Taxes and Regulatory Fees at the same time as the Fees.

(c) Unless TI provides TELUS with a valid tax or regulatory exemption certificate that is received by TELUS in a timely manner prior to issuance of the invoice, TI will pay or reimburse TELUS for Taxes or Regulatory Fees which are payable by TI to any Governmental Authority under applicable Laws arising from the Services, when invoiced by TELUS. TI’s obligations pursuant to this clause shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(d) TELUS will specify in writing to TI any applicable tax registration numbers and any other information required under applicable Laws.

(e) TELUS shall not be required to honor or comply with any Tax or Regulatory Fee exemption unless TELUS has first received a valid and acceptable Tax or Regulatory Fee exemption certificate or other appropriate documentation issued by the applicable Governmental Authority.

(f) If TI claims a Tax or Regulatory Fee exemption and TELUS relies on such exemption and does not collect the Tax or Regulatory Fee, and such certificate or other reliance by TELUS is subsequently found to be invalid by a Governmental Authority, then TI shall compensate TELUS for any assessments for such Tax or Regulatory Fee levied on TELUS, and TI shall be liable for any such uncollected Tax or Regulatory Fee, as well as any and all late charges, penalties or interest assessed thereon by any Governmental Authority.

(g) The Parties agree to cooperate with each other in good faith to enable each Party to determine its Tax liabilities accurately and to reduce such liabilities to the extent permitted by applicable Law, including without limitation by way of such Tax elections as may reasonably be requested by the other Party, provided that neither Party shall be required

17

to agree to any Tax election or to any Change in the structuring of the Fees (or any other Change) requested by the other Party if and to the extent that such Party reasonably believes that such Tax election or Change could have material adverse Tax consequences for it.

6.6 Foreign Exchange Conversion

If TI pays any invoiced amount to TELUS in United States dollars, in accordance with Section 6.3(a)(ii), TELUS will convert the payment from TI from United States currency to Canadian currency to determine whether the invoiced amount has been paid in full. For such calculation TELUS will use the Bloomberg United States to Canadian currency exchange rate posted at the close of business on the applicable due date.  At TELUS’ discretion, or where the Bloomberg rate is not available, TELUS may use the applicable Bank of Canada exchange rate, or if not available, the equivalent rate from a commonly used online converter selected by TELUS which is available through the Internet, such as xxx.Xxxxx.xxx.

In connection with determining MSC Eligible Spend for the purposes of Sections 7.1(d) and (h), TELUS will convert any MSC Eligible Spend received from TIHUS in United States dollars from United States currency to Canadian currency in order to create a consolidated MSC Eligible Spend amount expressed in Canadian dollars. For such calculation TELUS will use the Bloomberg United States to Canadian currency exchange rate posted at the close of business on the last day of the Initial Contract Period or Contract Year for which the MSC Eligible Spend relates, as applicable.  At TELUS’ discretion, or where the Bloomberg rate is not available, TELUS may use the applicable Bank of Canada exchange rate, or if not available, the equivalent rate from a commonly used online converter selected by TELUS which is available through the Internet, such as xxx.Xxxxx.xxx.

6.7 Set-Off

TI may, upon written notice to TELUS, set off and deduct, from any amounts payable to TELUS under this Agreement, any undisputed amounts payable to TI by TELUS. The failure by TI to set off or deduct any amount under an invoiced payment will not constitute a waiver of TI’s right of set off, deduct or collect such amount.

6.8 Maintenance of Records

In order to be able to provide TI with detailed information concerning the Services, TELUS will keep all operational Data of TELUS relevant to the provision of the Services and the calculation of the Fees for a period of eighteen (18) months following the date they are rendered, or such longer period as may be required by applicable Law or by TELUS document retention policies. In the case of any pass-through charges and expenses or payments made by TELUS on TI’s behalf, TELUS will preserve copies of all supporting vouchers, invoices and other documentation showing all expenditures, charges, taxes and related calculations.  At the end of the Term, or otherwise prior to destruction, TELUS shall provide to TI copies, at TI’s expense (based on actual cost without xxxx-up), of all such records.

18

ARTICLE 7
MINIMUM SPEND COMMITMENT

7.1 Minimum Spend Commitment

(a) TI hereby commits to an aggregate minimum spend during the first five (5) Contract Years (the “Initial MSC Period”) equal to the Initial MSC, subject to adjustment as provided in this Agreement (such amount, as adjusted from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, the “Minimum Spend Commitment” or “MSC”). The MSC represents an aggregate spend amount for all Services provided to TI by TELUS, and is not allocated or broken down by country, region or Service. Where the Agreement is terminated by TI for cause pursuant to Section 17.2 or Section 17.4, prior to the end of the fifth (5th) Contract Year, the MSC will be pro-rated based on the actual number of days the Agreement was in effect prior to such event.

(b) All Fees properly allocable (from an accounting perspective) as revenue to TELUS from TI (which for clarity includes revenue from both TI CDA and TIHUS) in respect of the Initial MSC Period, irrespective of the timing of the delivery, receipt or payment of the invoice (including, for purposes of this Section 7.1, amounts, if any, paid directly by TI to authorized subcontractors of TELUS) constitute eligible amounts for the satisfaction of the MSC for such period (collectively, the “MSC Eligible Spend”), subject to the following:

(i) Fees for increased volumes of contracted Services during the Initial MSC Period qualify as MSC Eligible Spend for such period but will not trigger an increase in the MSC;

(ii) Taxes and Regulatory Fees paid by TI do not qualify as MSC Eligible Spend;

(iii) service level credits, if any, issued in the Initial MSC Period will not be taken into account for the purposes of calculating MSC Eligible Spend (i.e. when calculating MSC Eligible Spend, the Fees paid by TI for a Service will not be adjusted by the amount of any service level credits issued in respect of such Service); and

(iv) for clarity, termination charges paid by TI to TELUS under this Agreement during the Initial MSC Period will qualify as MSC Eligible Spend.

(c) The Initial MSC and Initial MSC Floor represents approximately 60% and 45% respectively of TI’s Services spend with TELUS as of the Effective Date.

(d) Within [***] following the end of the Initial MSC Period, TELUS will calculate the MSC Eligible Spend for such period and if the MSC Eligible Spend is less than the MSC (unless and solely to the extent that such deficiency is a result of a Termination for Default or a Termination for Force Majeure), TI will pay to TELUS an amount equal to [***] of the difference between the MSC Eligible Spend and the MSC. Subject to Section 7.1(e), the obligation to pay such invoiced amount will be TI’s sole liability for any such failure to meet the MSC and upon payment of the invoiced amount TI will be deemed to have satisfied the MSC for the Initial MSC Period.

19

TELUS shall adjust the MSC on a dollar-for-dollar basis for any Termination for Default, Termination for Force Majeure or Termination for Major Business or Technology Change, in each case where such termination relates to a Baseline Service, which has occurred during the Initial MSC Period.

In addition, TELUS shall adjust the MSC on a dollar-for-dollar basis where: (i) TI ceases to subscribe for a Service as a result of TELUS discontinuing the Service to its customers generally; and (ii) TI does not subscribe for a Service to replace the discontinued Service with comparable Fees to the discontinued Service.

Any MSC adjustment required pursuant to this paragraph (d) will be calculated as follows: TELUS shall adjust the MSC by decreasing the MSC by an amount equal to the reasonably projected reduction in Fees related to such Baseline Service for the remainder of the Initial MSC Period resulting from the termination of such Baseline Service.  The reasonably projected reduction shall be calculated based on the average volume for the terminated Baseline Service up to the time of calculating the adjustment, , irrespective of actual volume in the Contract Year of termination or the projected volume for such Service during the remainder of the Initial MSC Period.

(e) The Parties hereby establish an MSC Floor.

(f) Any adjustments to the MSC for Termination for Major Business or Technology Change can never result in the MSC being lower than the MSC Floor; if the result of the adjustments for Termination for Major Business or Technology Change would result in the MSC being lower than the MSC Floor, then the MSC will be deemed to be equal to the MSC Floor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where Services are terminated pursuant to a Termination for Default or a Termination for Force Majeure, and as a result of such termination, the Fees constituting MSC Eligible Spend were below the MSC Floor, TELUS will adjust the MSC Floor, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, based on the amount by which such termination caused the MSC Eligible Spend to fall below the MSC Floor.

(g) The adjustments to the MSC described in Section 7.1(d) shall be calculated in the following order:

(i) adjustments for Termination for Default, Termination for Force Majeure or TELUS discontinuing Services; and

(ii) adjustments for Termination for Major Business or Technology Change.

For clarity, where the MSC has been adjusted, TELUS will conduct the next annual MSC review using the new MSC, with such new MSC being subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 7.1.

(h) TELUS will track the status of the MSC Eligible Spend on an annual basis and report the amount to TI within [***] of the end of the Contract Year. TELUS will calculate all applicable MSC and MSC Floor adjustments in accordance with this Article 7 within [***] following the event giving rise to the adjustment. Upon calculating such adjustments,

20

TELUS will provide written notice of the adjustments to TI for review and approval, together with the underlying calculations used to determine the adjustments.

(i) [***] prior to [***] of the Effective Date, provided that TI CDA is still an Affiliate of TCI, the Executive Committee will meet and discuss in good faith the applicability and terms of the MSC and MSC Floor for the remaining [***] term of this Agreement. If the Executive Committee is unable to reach agreement within [***] of the [***] of the Effective Date the matter will be escalated to an applicable Senior Vice-President of each of TELUS and TI for determination.

ARTICLE 8
RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT AND METHODS OF OPERATION

8.1 Governance Process

(a) In order to effectively implement and manage the services relationship to enable the Parties to realize their mutual objectives set out in Section 2.1, the Parties have agreed to institute and maintain a structured governance process, the details of which are set out in Schedule 8.1.

(b) On a semi-annual basis during the Term, the Agreement Coordinators will review the overall Governance Process, so as to potentially enhance the effectiveness of the structure and processes in order to enable the Parties to:

(i) clearly understand their responsibilities under the Agreement;

(ii) work co-operatively together over the Term; and

(iii) have a governance structure that is practical, timely and effective.

The Agreement Coordinators will submit their written recommendations for improvements, if any, to the Governance Process to the Executive Committee for approval. Once approved, TELUS will prepare within thirty (30) days a Change Order which documents the approved improvements.

8.2 Methods of Operation

Operating procedures, if any, for the Services will be mutually agreed in writing upon by the Parties.  Details of such operating procedures will be set forth in the applicable Service Schedule or a joint operating agreement.  It is understood that the joint operating agreement may change from time to time by written agreement of the Parties.

ARTICLE 9
POLICIES, REGULATIONS AND CODES

9.1 TELUS Policies and Codes

TELUS shall, in delivering the Services to TI, comply with applicable TELUS written policies and codes listed in Schedule 9.1 and any other written policies and codes made available to TELUS

21

from time to time by TI that may affect the delivery of the Services to TI.  New, additional or amended policies and codes applicable to the delivery of the Services will be subject to the Change Management Procedures.

9.2 Security Policies and Regulations

(a) Without limiting the generality of Section 9.1, each Party and its Representatives and subcontractors will at all times comply with all security policies and regulations applicable to the other Party’s premises, facilities, systems and data, of which such Party is made aware. In the event that any Representative or subcontractor of a Party fails to comply with such policies and regulations, the other Party may prohibit such Representative or subcontractor from using or accessing the applicable premises, facilities, systems or data and, in the case of TELUS Representative or subcontractor, TELUS will immediately remove such individual from the provision of Services pursuant to this Agreement. Further, if in the sole opinion of a Party, any of the Representatives or subcontractors of the other Party are deemed to present a security risk to such Party, such Party may immediately terminate such individual’s access to its premises, facilities, systems and/or data and/or the premises, facilities, systems and/or data of its customers. Notice of such action will be provided to the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable. Any TELUS Representatives removed from the provision of the Services or whose access to TI’s premises, facilities, systems or data or the premises, facilities, systems or data of TI’s customers (including TI’s TIDS customers) is terminated pursuant to this Section will be replaced by TELUS with regard to the provision of the Services within three (3) Business Days of such removal or termination.

(b) Subject to applicable Law and except as otherwise set forth in Schedule A, TELUS will conduct, at its own expense, background and security checks for all of TELUS’ Representatives who will be engaged in providing Services under this Agreement and will cause each subcontractor to conduct such checks on those of its employees who will be engaged in providing subcontracted services. The Parties may agree to supplement or modify the requirements of such policies in Schedule A or any other schedule. Prior to allowing a TELUS Representative to commence providing Services, or a subcontractor representative to commence providing subcontracted services, TELUS must have received a confirmed clear background and security check (meaning no criminal convictions and no criminal charges pending) in accordance with this Section for such individual.

ARTICLE 10
OTHER OBLIGATIONS

10.1 Disaster Recovery / Business Continuity

In addition to any additional disaster recovery, crisis management and business continuity plans and procedures that may be set forth in Schedule A with respect to the Services, TELUS shall, for all Services,  maintain and comply with reasonable disaster recovery, crisis management and business continuity plans and procedures designed to help ensure that it can continue to provide the Services in accordance with this Agreement in the event of a disaster or other significant event that might otherwise impact its operations.

22

ARTICLE 11
DISPUTE RESOLUTION

11.1 Dispute Resolution Process

(a) The Parties agree to use good faith efforts to resolve any dispute, controversy or claim relating to or arising from or related to this Agreement including any provision of the Schedules (in each case, a “Dispute”), in accordance with the Dispute Resolution Process set forth in this Article 11. In the case of a Dispute in respect of a particular Service, TELUS and TI will first attempt in good faith to resolve such Dispute informally through their Service Coordinators, as set forth in Schedule A.  If the Service Coordinators are not able to resolve such Dispute within ten (10) Business Days or such other time period as may be set forth in Schedule A, either Party may commence the formal Dispute Resolution Process under this Article 11.

(b) Either Party may commence the Dispute Resolution Process by informing the Agreement Coordinator of the other Party in writing of the nature of the Dispute with all relevant information (a “Dispute Notice”).  The Agreement Coordinators will meet within five (5) Business Days of the receipt of the Dispute Notice to review the information with the objective of resolving the Dispute.

(c) If the Agreement Coordinators are unable to resolve the Dispute within ten (10) Business Days of the meeting referred to in Section 11.1(b) above, either TELUS or TI may refer the matter to the Executive Committee by written notice to the Executive Committee in accordance with Schedule 8.1.  The Executive Committee will meet as often as reasonably required and each Party will provide any information reasonably required by the Executive Committee related to the Dispute, with the objective of resolving the Dispute. If the Executive Committee is unable to resolve the Dispute within ten (10) Business Days of the referral of the Dispute, or within any other delay as may be agreed between the Parties, either Party may, by written notice to the other Party, refer the Dispute to binding arbitration as set out below.

(d) Any Dispute which cannot be settled in accordance with Sections 11.1(a) to 11.1(c) above, shall be exclusively settled in accordance with this Section 11.1(d) to the exclusion of the courts, subject to the exceptions contained at Section 11.1(e).

The Parties shall attempt within ten (10) days of the date of referral to arbitration to agree on a single arbitrator who shall be called to the British Columbia bar and be familiar with commercial law and the IT industry.  If the Parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator, then either Party may apply to the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre for the appointment of the arbitrator, in accordance with its rules of procedure.  The arbitrator shall proceed with the hearing within fifteen (15) days of his/her appointment and shall render a decision within fifteen (15) days after the completion of the hearing.  The Parties will apply the procedure rules determined by the arbitrator.  The arbitration and the arbitral award shall be held confidential.  The seat of arbitration shall be Vancouver, British Columbia and the arbitration shall be conducted in English.  The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding.  All the expenses related to the

23

arbitration shall be shared equally by the Parties, unless otherwise decided by the arbitrator.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree that the Dispute Resolution Process set forth in this Article 11 shall not apply in circumstances where:

(i) the claimant is seeking a temporary restraining order or other immediate injunctive relief;

(ii) a Third Party has brought a claim in court against one Party, who wishes to implead the other Party in such proceeding, except with the consent of such Third Party; or

(iii) the dispute relates to Claims in respect of Intellectual Property, whether initiated by Third Parties or by a Party.

The Parties further agree that Section 11.1(d) shall not apply in circumstances where this Agreement specifically references arbitration as not being applicable.

11.2 Reliability - Performance Notwithstanding Dispute

The Parties agree that, in light of the paramount importance of the reliability of the Services, in order to fulfil the Customer First obligations of the Parties, except where clearly and unambiguously prevented by the nature of the matter that is the subject of the Dispute and without limiting either Party’s rights of termination under Article 17, each of the Parties shall continue performing their respective obligations under this Agreement (including payment of Fees in the case of TI and the performance of Services in the case of TELUS) while the Dispute is being resolved, unless and until such obligations are terminated or expire in accordance with the provisions of the body of this Agreement or Schedule A, as applicable.  For greater certainty, each of the Parties agrees that only the specific item that is the subject of the Dispute shall be subject to the Dispute Resolution Process under this Article 11 (for example, if a portion of an invoice is disputed by TI, only the disputed amount will be subject to the Dispute Resolution Process and TI will be required to pay the non-disputed amount).

ARTICLE 12
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

12.1 Ownership of Intellectual Property

All right, title and interest in any and all Intellectual Property Rights resulting or based on any Services provided by TELUS to TI hereunder shall be owned exclusively by TELUS. All right, title and interest, and all Intellectual Property Rights, in any Service Components used to provide the Services shall be, and remain, with TELUS, or its suppliers or licensors.

12.2 Residual Knowledge

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall restrict either Party from the use of any know-how, concepts, or modifications of concepts, methodologies, processes, technologies, algorithms or

24

techniques relating to the Services which either Party, individually or jointly, develops or discloses under this Agreement, provided that in doing so such Party does not breach its confidentiality obligations specified in this Agreement or infringe the Intellectual Property Rights of the other Party.

ARTICLE 13
AUDIT

13.1 Audits

(a) During the Term and for a period of twelve (12) months after the end of the Term, (but not more than once in any calendar year) TELUS will provide TI and any internal or external auditor appointed by TI, upon seven (7) days prior written notice from TI, with reasonable access to all relevant books and records in order to conduct audits in order to verify:

(i) TELUS’ calculation of the Fees and other charges payable by TI (including providing access to all raw Data from which such reports are compiled);

(ii) any pass-through expenses charged by TELUS to TI under this Agreement and the Schedules;  and

(iii) TELUS’ compliance with privacy and protection of Personal Information obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Subject to applicable confidentiality requirements, TELUS shall, as part of the Services, provide to TI and its auditors any assistance that they may reasonably require in connection with an audit.  TELUS shall use all reasonable efforts to arrange its affairs, relationships and agreements in such a way that TI and its auditors can conduct their activities as permitted by this Section.

(c) Audits will be conducted at TI’s expense (except for TELUS’ internal time, which shall be at its own cost and expense) unless such audit reveals a net discrepancy in favour of TI of greater than 5% in respect of amounts that were charged under this Agreement in respect of the time period examined, in which case TELUS shall reimburse TI for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in connection with such audit, subject to the provision by TI of reasonable supporting documentation.

(d) If the proposed auditor is a Third Party, the auditor shall be required to enter into a non-disclosure agreement in a form to be agreed between the Parties, which shall include at least the same level of non-disclosure obligations as those contained in this Agreement.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) the form of non-disclosure agreement shall provide that all information obtained through the audit will be considered to be confidential information which cannot be disclosed or used by the auditor for any purpose other than the audit; and (ii) if the proposed auditor is a direct competitor of TELUS, it shall be a requirement that the staff members of the auditor establish a confidentiality screen to the satisfaction of TELUS, acting reasonably, to prevent the internal disclosure by the audit staff of the auditor to the staff which are carrying on the competitive activity.

25

(e) No audit shall relieve TELUS from its obligations to comply with the provisions of this Agreement.

13.2 Compliance

(a) TI will provide TELUS with a copy, which at TI’s option may be a redacted copy, of any report produced in connection with an audit conducted by TI under this Agreement. TELUS shall respond in writing to any deficiencies noted in the report within thirty (30) days of receipt of the report.  If any audit reveals that TELUS is not in compliance with this Agreement or any applicable generally accepted accounting principle, TELUS shall promptly bring itself into compliance, and shall complete and communicate in writing to TI for TI’s approval a plan for timely resolution of the deficiencies identified.

(b) If, as a result of any such audit, it is determined that there have been reporting errors, including both undercharges and overcharges, and the net result of such errors is an amount owing by one Party to the other, then TELUS shall promptly pay to TI, or TI shall promptly pay to TELUS, as applicable, the amount owing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party shall not be obligated to make an adjustment payment to the other Party under this Section unless the net discrepancy is greater than 5% (in which case it will be obligated to make a payment for the entire amount of the discrepancy, not only the excess over such 5% threshold).

(c) Upon request, TELUS will provide evidence of stated compliance and accreditation, certificates, attestations, or reports resulting from accredited independent third party audits conducted by TELUS such as ISO 27001, CSAE 3416, SOC 2. Where applicable, the accredited independent third-party audits will occur, at the frequency required by the relevant standard to maintain applicable Services stated compliance and accreditation.

(f) All insurance required to be obtained by TELUS under this Article 14 shall be placed with insurers having an AM Best rating of “A-” or better, or the equivalent, and which are licensed to provide insurance coverage in the jurisdictions in which the Services will be conducted.

(g) TELUS, unless otherwise agreed in writing by TI, will cause any subcontractors or sub-consultants of TELUS to obtain and maintain reasonable levels and types of insurance that a prudent subcontractor or sub-consultant would maintain given the nature of services they may provide in connection with this Agreement and including coverage for their respective officers, directors and employees.

(h) Neither the providing of insurance by TELUS in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement nor the insolvency, bankruptcy or failure of any insurance company to pay any claim accruing shall be held to waive any of the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the liability of TELUS or otherwise. The presence or absence of such insurance coverage as contemplated by this Agreement does not in any way decrease TELUS’ liability owed to TI.

(b) Claims made against the Indemnitee by reason of physical injury or death to any Person or physical damage to or loss of tangible property caused by the negligent acts or omissions of the Indemnitor or otherwise due to the Indemnitor’s fault, including breach of the Agreement; and

(c) any wilful misconduct or gross negligence of the Indemnitor.

20.2 Additional Indemnification by TI

Subject to Article 21, TI agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the TELUS Indemnified Parties from any and all Losses suffered by TELUS as a result of, arising out of, under, or in connection with any claim, demand, charge, action, cause of action or other proceeding by Third Parties against TELUS relating to the delivery or provision of Services by TELUS to TI, unless caused by TELUS’ gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct, or breach of this Agreement.

20.3 Indemnification Procedures

The Indemnitor’s obligation to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitee, as applicable, pursuant to this Article 20 will be subject to Indemnitee having given the Indemnitor prompt written notice of the claim or of the commencement of the related action, as the case may be, and information and reasonable assistance, at the Indemnitor’s expense, for the defence or settlement thereof, provided however that failure to give prompt notice will not compromise the Indemnitor’s obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Indemnitor’s ability to defend or settle the claim.  The Indemnitor will have sole control of the defence and settlement of such claim or related action, provided that the Indemnitor will not settle such claim or related action in a manner which imposes any obligation on the Indemnitee, or involves a remedy other than the payment of money, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).  The Indemnitee will be entitled to engage counsel at its sole expense to consult with the Indemnitor with respect to the defence of the claim and related action.

ARTICLE 21
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

21.1 Exclusion of Liability

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 21.1, but subject to the limitation of liability set forth in Section 21.2, a Party and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives will have no liability to the other Party and its Indemnitees for consequential, indirect (provided that the foregoing shall not exclude damages resulting from Third Party Claims), incidental, special, punitive damages, losses or expenses regardless of whether such liability is based on breach of contract, tort, strict liability, breach of warranties, failure of essential purpose or otherwise in connection with any matter relating to, or arising under, the Services, this Agreement or any Schedule, even if it has been advised of their possible existence.  The exclusion contained in the immediate preceding sentence of this Section 21.1 shall not apply in the case of Losses resulting from: (i) claims under Section 20.1; or (ii) any breach of the confidentiality provisions set forth in Section 15.2; or (iii) any breach of the privacy provisions set forth in Article 16 or in the Schedules.

21.2 Limitation of Liability

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any Service Schedule:

(a) TELUS shall have no liability to TI (subject to TI’s termination rights pursuant to Section 17.2, if and to the extent applicable) for any failure to meet the Performance Standards, except in the case of Losses resulting from (i) bad faith, willful misconduct or

40

gross negligence by TELUS, (ii) tangible or real property loss or damage; (iii) personal injury, including death; or (iv) any breach of the confidentiality provisions set forth in Section 15.2; (v) claims under Section 20.1; or (vi) any breach of the privacy provisions set forth in Article 16 or in the Schedules;

(b) TELUS’ liability to TI for any failure to meet the Performance Standards due to bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence by TELUS in the performance of the Services shall not exceed the total amount paid or payable in respect of [***]for the Services in respect of which TELUS failed to meet the Performance Standards; and

(c) TELUS’ liability to TI for a breach of the privacy provisions set forth in Article 16 or in the Schedules, or any Failure to meet the Performance Standards due to a breach of the privacy provisions set forth in Article 16 or in the Schedules, shall not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount paid or payable in respect of [***] for the Services in respect of which TELUS failed to meet the Performance Standards, or (b) [***].

21.3 Force Majeure

(a) Each Party will be excused from default or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement (other than any payment obligation and disaster recovery/business continuity obligations) if and to the extent that such default or delay is caused by an act of God or any other cause beyond its reasonable control, including fires, epidemics, riots, acts of war, strikes, acts or orders of government, acts of terrorism, accident, explosion, flood, storm and acts of Third Party providers which are not subcontractors, provided such default or delay could not have been prevented by reasonable precautions and cannot reasonably be circumvented by the non-performing Party through the use of commercially reasonable efforts, including obtaining at its cost, reasonable alternative sources for performing the Services, work around plans or other means (an “Event of Force Majeure”). For greater certainty, the Parties acknowledge and agree that COVID-19 and its consequences or effects shall not be excluded as an epidemic or event beyond TELUS’ reasonable control by reason of the fact that it exists or is foreseeable at the time of the execution of this Agreement. In the event either Party anticipates an Event of Force Majeure arising, it will promptly notify the other Party.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Force Majeure, the non-performing Party will be excused from performance for as long as such circumstances prevail and will, as soon as practicable, notify the other by telephone (to be confirmed promptly in writing) of any actual or anticipated delay and describe in reasonable detail the circumstances causing the delay, the expected duration and the steps being taken to circumvent or recover from such Event of Force Majeure. The non-performing Party shall provide frequent updates and otherwise use reasonable efforts to keep the other Party fully informed.  In the event of any partial performance of Services, or performance of Services where the Performance Standards are not met as a result of the Event of Force Majeure, the Fees otherwise payable for the affected Service(s) will be adjusted, for the duration of the Event of Force Majeure, on an equitable basis taking into account, among other things, the portion or duration of the Services performed.

41

(c) If any Event of Force Majeure affecting TELUS substantially prevents, hinders, or delays performance of any Service for more than [***], then, without limiting a Party’s obligations under Sections 10.1 and 21.3(a) and (b), the Parties shall immediately meet to consider options for restoring the Services, which may include implementing applicable elements of the disaster recovery, crisis management and business continuity plans and procedures referenced in Section 10.1 which have not already been implemented.  If notwithstanding efforts taken by TELUS the Event of Force Majeure substantially prevents, hinders, or delays performance of any Service for [***]  then TI may terminate the affected Service by written notice to TELUS.  Where TI has terminated a Service under this Section, once the Event of Force Majeure has ended, any re-instatement of the terminated Service shall be dealt with pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.5 and treated as a New Service.

ARTICLE 22
GENERAL

22.1 Assignment

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the rights and obligations of each Party under this Agreement are personal and may not be assigned, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) TCI or TI may assign its right, title or interest in or to this Agreement, and all benefits derived therefrom, to a Canadian Affiliate, and TC U.S. or TIHUS may assign its right, title or interest in or to this Agreement, and all benefits derived therefrom, to a United States Affiliate, without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and (ii) TELUS may assign its rights to accounts receivable under this Agreement to a bona fide lender by way of security without the prior written consent of TI..  Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 22.1 shall be null and void.

22.2 Subcontracting

(a) TELUS shall be entitled to subcontract any portion of the Services without the prior written consent of TI.

(b) TELUS shall be responsible for, and shall ensure compliance by, its subcontractors with all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement including the Schedules. TELUS shall not be relieved or released in any manner from its duties, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement and shall be and remain liable under this Agreement to the same extent as if TELUS had performed the applicable Services itself.

(c) Each subcontractor agreement shall be executed in TELUS’ name, as an independent contractor and not as agent for TI.  All such subcontractor agreements must: (i) be subject to termination by TELUS for convenience upon notice to the subcontractor; and (ii) where feasible, require the subcontractor to comply with all TELUS obligations set out in this Agreement, including with respect to confidentiality, privacy, security and safety.

42

22.3 Relationship of Parties

Except where this Agreement expressly provides to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to create the relationship of partnership or joint venture or any other relationship between the Parties other than the relationship of independent parties contracting for services. TELUS shall have sole responsibility for the supervision, daily direction and control, payment of salary (including withholding of income taxes and source deductions), workers’ compensation, disability benefits and the like of its employees with respect to the performance of the Services rendered pursuant to this Agreement. This Agreement is entered into solely by and between, and may be enforced only by, TELUS and TI, and this Agreement will not be deemed to create any rights in Third Parties, including employees, suppliers, clients or Affiliates of a Party, or to create obligations of a Party directly to any such Third Parties.

22.4 No Advertising

Except as otherwise provided in any intellectual property license between the Parties or their Affiliates, no Party shall use the name of any other Party in any advertising, promotional materials or publicity releases without securing the prior written approval of the Party whose name is to be used, provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit internal announcements by a Party within its own organization and that of its Affiliates. However, either Party may include the other Party’s name and a factual description of the work performed under this Agreement whenever required for legal, accounting or regulatory purposes.

22.5 Governing Law

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein and, subject to the provisions of Section 11.1(d), the Parties consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia, in the city of Vancouver with respect to any litigation arising in connection with this Agreement.

22.7 Waiver

The failure of any Party at any time to require performance by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect in any way the full right to require such performance at any subsequent time; nor shall a waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement be taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself.

44

22.8 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and the Parties shall substitute for the invalid provision a valid provision which most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid provision.

22.9 Cumulative Remedies

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement to the contrary, the exercise or obtaining of any right, remedy or relief by a Party in connection with this Agreement including the exercise of a right of termination shall be without prejudice to any other right, remedy or relief vested in or to which such Party may be entitled at Law, in equity or under this Agreement.

22.10 Survival

The applicable provisions of Article 12, Article 15, Article 16 and Article 20, and Sections 21.1, 21.2, and 22.10 shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement together with such other provisions of this Agreement which expressly or by their nature survive termination or expiration.

22.11 Entire Agreement

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersedes all prior agreement, negotiations and representations, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter.  No amendment, modification, waiver or discharge of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by an authorized signatory of the Party to be bound thereby.

22.12 Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in separate counterparts, including counterparts by electronic transmission, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

22.13 Further Assurances

The Parties agree to co-operate with and assist each other and take such action as may be reasonably necessary to implement and carry into effect this Agreement to its full intent.
