The company said in a statement, "Common shares purchased by way of private agreements pursuant to off-exchange block purchases including the Order will not exceed, in aggregate, more than one-third of the maximum number of common shares that TELUS is permitted to purchase under the NCIB. The price that TELUS will pay for the common shares purchased under the private agreements will be negotiated by TELUS and the sellers and will be at a discount to the market price of TELUS' common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange at the time of purchase."

The stock traded 1.42 percent down on Monday.
