Accordingly, the notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities (including trade payables and debt) of such subsidiaries and, upon any release of its guarantee, of RCCI. As a holding company, our ability to meet our
financial obligations, including servicing our debt under the notes, depends upon our receipt of funds from our subsidiaries. None of our subsidiaries has an obligation to make funds available to us to pay our obligations under the notes or to pay
those obligations except, in the case of RCCI, to the extent it is guaranteeing the notes at the time. In the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or similar proceeding in respect of any of our subsidiaries that are not,
at the time, guaranteeing the notes, holders of the notes will have no right to proceed against the assets of such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-guarantor</FONT> subsidiaries. Creditors of such
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-guarantor</FONT> subsidiaries would generally be entitled to payment in full from such assets before any assets are made available for distribution to Rogers Communications Inc. or, if applicable, RCCI, to pay
their respective debts and other obligations. Pursuant to the terms of our existing debt obligations, including those of the notes, our subsidiaries are permitted to incur additional debt subject to certain limitations. For certain summary financial
information in respect of RCI, RCCI and RCI&#146;s other subsidiaries, see &#147;Summary of Financial Results of Long-Term Debt Guarantor&#148; in our 2018 Annual MD&amp;A and &#147;Summary of financial information of long-term debt guarantor&#148;

or of RCCI, as applicable, that serve as collateral under any such secured debt would be made available to satisfy the obligations under the secured debt before any payments are made on the notes or the guarantee. As at March&nbsp;31, 2019, neither
Rogers Communications Inc. nor RCCI had any outstanding secured debt other than $650&nbsp;million of funding outstanding under RCI&#146;s accounts receivable securitization program. However, pursuant to the terms of our existing debt obligations,

supplement for the public offering. Pursuant to Rule&nbsp;5121(a)(1)(c), the appointment of a &#147;qualified independent underwriter&#148; is not necessary in connection with this offering because the notes offered hereby are &#147;investment grade
rated&#148; as defined in such rule. In accordance with Rule&nbsp;5121(c), no sales of the notes will be made to any discretionary account over which any underwriter with a conflict of interest exercises discretion without the prior specific written
approval of the account holder. </P>

certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The debt securities of a series may be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global securities that will be
deposited with, or on behalf of, a depositary (the &#147;depositary&#148;) identified in the prospectus supplement. Global securities will be issued in registered form and in either temporary or definitive form. Unless and until it is exchanged in
whole or in part for the individual debt securities, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary for such global security to a nominee of such depositary or by a nominee of such depositary to such depositary or
another nominee of such depositary or by such depositary or any such nominee to a successor of such depositary or a nominee of such successor. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">The specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any debt securities of a series and the rights of and
limitations upon owners of beneficial interests in a global security will be described in the prospectus supplement. We expect that the following provisions will generally apply to depositary arrangements. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Upon the issuance of a global security, the depositary for such global security or its nominee will credit, on its book-entry
registration and transfer system, the respective principal amounts of the individual debt securities represented by such global security to the accounts of persons that have accounts with such depositary. Such accounts shall be designated by the
dealers, underwriters or agents with respect to the debt securities or by us if such debt securities are offered and sold directly by us. Ownership of beneficial interests in a global security will be limited to persons that have accounts with the
applicable depositary (&#147;participants&#148;) or persons that may hold interests through participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in such global security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through,
records maintained by the applicable depositary or its nominee with respect to interests of participants and the records of participants with respect to interests of persons other than participants. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">So long as the depositary for a global security, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a global security, except as
required by law, such depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the debt securities represented by that global security for all purposes under the indenture governing those debt securities. Except
as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to have any of the individual debt securities of the series represented by that global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to
receive physical delivery of any debt securities of such series in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the indenture governing such debt securities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on individual debt securities represented by a global security
registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the global security representing the debt securities. None of RCI, the trustee for the debt
securities or any paying agent or registrar for the debt securities will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made by the depositary or any participants on account of beneficial ownership
interests in the global security for the debt securities or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">We expect that the depositary for a series of debt securities or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal,
premium or interest in respect of a global security representing the debt securities, immediately will credit participants&#146; accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such
global security for the debt securities as shown on the records of the depositary or its nominee. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a global security held through such participants will be governed by
standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in street name. Such payments will be the responsibility of such participants. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">If the depositary for a series of debt securities is at any time unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue as depositary and
a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days, we will issue definitive debt securities of that series in exchange for the global security or securities representing that series of debt securities. In addition, we may at any time and
in our sole discretion, subject to any limitations described in the prospectus supplement relating to the debt securities, determine not to have any debt securities of a series represented by one or more global securities, and, in such event, will
issue definitive debt securities of that series in exchange for the global security or securities representing that series of debt securities. A global security for a series of debt securities will also be exchangeable for definitive debt securities
in the event that an Event of Default in respect of such series shall occur and be continuing. If definitive debt securities are issued, an owner of a beneficial interest in a global security will be entitled to physical delivery of definitive debt
securities of the series represented by that global security equal in principal amount to that beneficial interest and to have the debt securities registered in its name. </P>

consider carefully the risks described in the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus (including subsequent documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus) and, if applicable, those described in a prospectus supplement
relating to a specific offering of debt securities. Discussions of certain risks and uncertainties affecting our business are provided in our annual information form and our management&#146;s discussion and analysis for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2017 and our management&#146;s discussion and analysis for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2018 (or, as applicable, our annual information form and our management&#146;s discussion and analysis for subsequent periods), each
of which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. These are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also materially and adversely affect us.
If any of the events identified in these risks and uncertainties were to actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially harmed. </P>

liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. In addition, we have been advised by Davies Ward Phillips&nbsp;&amp; Vineberg LLP, our Canadian counsel, that there may be some doubt whether a judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon
civil liability provisions of United States federal securities laws would be enforceable in Ontario. We have also been advised by such counsel that there is substantial doubt whether an action could be brought in Ontario in the first instance on the
