TELUS forward looking statements This session and answers to questions contain forward-looking statements that require assumptions about expected future events including 2007 targets, competition, financing, financial and operating results, and regulation that are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties. There is significant risk that predictions and other forward looking statements will not prove to be accurate so do not place undue reliance on them. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include but are not limited to: competition; capital expenditure levels (including possible spectrum purchases); financing and debt requirements (including share repurchases, debt redemptions and refinancing plans); tax matters (including deferral of payment of significant cash taxes); regulatory developments (including local forbearance, local price cap regulation and wireless number portability); process risks (including conversion of legacy systems and billing system integrations); and other risk factors discussed herein and listed from time to time in TELUS’ reports. There are many factors that could cause actual results to differ materially. For a full listing and description of the potential risk factors and assumptions, please refer to the TELUS 2005 annual report and updates in the 2006 quarterly reports (see Section 10 Risks and Risk Management in Management’s discussion and analysis), 2007 targets news release issued on Dec. 14, 2006 and other filings with securities commissions in Canada (sedar.com) and the United States (sec.gov).
