The Sequence CAG notes are what are known as "Sustainability-Linked Bonds," and they were issued in accordance with TELUS' Sustainability-Linked Bond Framework, which was presented on June 14, 2021.

The Science-Based Targets initiative (abbreviated as "SBTi") gave its stamp of approval to the objective that was outlined within the Framework. This further demonstrates TELUS' commitment to global sustainability management and its assistance in the global fight against climate change. The Sustainability Efficiency Objective is aligned with the reductions required to prevent warming to beneath 1.5 levels Celsius, which on the day of the release of the Framework was considered to be the most difficult designation obtainable via the SBTi course of.
