It seems to be LOI for 20 orders and 20 options.

From the above quoted Flightglobal story :
"While Al Baker acknowledges that the airline has been negatively impacted by the ongoing blockade against Qatar, he says that the diplomatic rift 'has quite the opposite impact' on the airline's cargo business, with cargo volumes more than doubling.
'We were the bridge during the blockade', says Al Baker. 'These two additional 747 freighters is witness to our perseverance'."
Unlike some other posters, I never thought QR - or, more broadly, the state of Qatar - would suffer much from the diplomatic situation.
