Task 0.1 Project Management Plan Our team will develop a Project Management Plan (PMP) that establishes the team leads, communication protocols, material production standards, and quality control standards. It will contain the draft project schedule that will be reviewed and validated, and adjusted as needed with City Staff. Task 0.2 Project Kickoff Meeting and Site Visit In a three-day team visit to Denton, our team will review the project management plan with the City Staff, conduct a vision setting exercise with the City Staff and the Mend Collaborative (Mend) team, take part in staff-led tours, brainstorm public engagement participation goals and Advisory Group composition, and conduct up to six (6) initial stakeholder interviews with key project partners and elected officials, with up to six (6) additional interviews to be conducted virtually. Stakeholder participants will be identified in consultation with City Staff and the consultant team. Stakeholder interviews will be conducted in groups of no more than three (3) participants. We will also initiate a door-to-door business owner survey in order to establish contact with these key stakeholders. The Mend Team will participate in two (2) hours of door- to door business owner survey, with City Staff conducting follow up to businesses that are not reached in the initial canvas. Following the kickoff meeting and site visit, we will produce a summary that includes an updated project schedule of deliverables and the results of the vision setting exercise. Task 0.3 Biweekly Project Management Calls The Mend team will establish a schedule for biweekly (once every two weeks) virtual project management calls between the Mend team and the City Staff throughout the length of the project. Task 0.4 Monthly Project Team Calls The Mend team will establish a schedule for monthly check-in calls for the project team throughout the length of the project. DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A Exhibit B 2 Task 0.5 Data Request Building on the results of the project kickoff meeting and site visit, the Mend team will develop and submit an initial data request to the City Staff in an excel spreadsheet format. Task 0.6 Public Engagement Plan Within two weeks of the kickoff meeting, the Mend team will submit a draft Public Engagement Plan (PEP) that aligns with goals and milestones discussed during the kickoff meeting. The document will explain in detail the target audiences, methods of engagement, timeline for activities, Advisory Group composition, and performance goals - such as number of individuals participating and levels of public input. The PEP will help to organize the Mend team and City Staff who will be focused on engagement and process with engagement events and tasks happening throughout the duration of the Downtown Plan process. It will also confirm the final composition of the 16-20 members of the Advisory Group, which must also be formally accepted by the City Council through a resolution. Task 0.7 Project Branding Upon initiation of the process, and with the input of the City Staff, the Mend team will work to engage a local artist to assist in the development of the project brand. The Mend team intends to utilize the UNT CoLab to facilitate an introduction to a local artist. This will include selection of a project name and associated graphics. The artist’s design will then be adapted into a series of graphic standards, including document and map templates, as well as materials for engagement, as called for by the Public Engagement Plan, to ensure the key information and findings will be consistently formatted throughout the course of the project and between the multiple teams. Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task. While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement Plan, City Staff will be expected to: ● Provide for meeting logistics, including locations and food ● Plan kickoff tour(s), including designing route(s), preparing maps, and securing transportation. ● Utilize their communications channels ● Provide local knowledge and insight into stakeholders, outreach and the local community ● Participate in distributing posters, signs and other promotional materials ● Review and comment upon deliverables in an agreed upon format and timeframe ● Compiling and providing access to existing planning documents and data ● Provide additional outreach information gathered through staff lead public engagement ● The Mend team will design surveys and pop ups in ways that City Staff will be able to expand upon the engagement conducted by the Mend team if desired DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 3 Phase 0 Deliverables ● A Project Management Plan that contains who are the team leads, communication protocols, material production standards, and quality control standards ● Conduct six (6) stakeholder interviews in person with project partners and elected officials, and up to additional six (6) stakeholder interviews virtually ● Door-to-door business owners survey ● The Mend team’s Data Request ● Engagement Materials that includes multiple print materials for the Kickoff Meeting and Site Visit ● Engagement Summary (a graphic document to be distributed externally) of the Kickoff Meeting and Site Visit ● Public Engagement Plan that explains in detail the target audiences, methods of engagement, timeline for activities, Advisory Group composition, and performance goals ● Project Brand Standards that includes document and map templates, as well as materials for in- person and online engagement (logo, colors, taglines, and fonts) Phase 1: Understand Timeline: Months 1-3 In this phase, the Mend team will work to understand relevant data, opportunities, and limitations, national best practices, emerging trends, and previous planning processes that affect Downtown Denton. Our goal within this phase is to merge quantitative data and qualitative observation, including engagement results, to understand the needs of the study area and build a “Case for Action” that allows us to fully develop project goals and strategies in the next phase. Task 1.1 Existing and Ongoing Plan, Data, and Recommendation Review A review of previous planning efforts and conceptual plans as well as data provided by the City. This will include identifying key opportunities to advance strategies in existing plans while identifying areas to leverage and complement efforts being made by the City. This baseline will help guide and facilitate conversations throughout the engagement process and establish a foundation for our understanding of the city’s park and recreation system. These plans, studies, and data will be provided by the City Staff for the Mend team to review. The Mend team will also coordinate with the Southeast Denton Area Plan consultant to ensure continuity in planning. Task 1.2 Demographic, Regulatory and Trend Analysis The Mend team will review community demographics and future demographic trends as it applies to the City of Denton and its Downtown, using Census data, American Community Survey data, and State Projections data as available. The Mend team will analyze these demographics to understand demand and DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 4 future demographic trends for demand related to Downtown. The Mend team will also review existing regulations, including zoning, development codes, and other regulatory tools within the City to assess their impact on Downtown. Task 1.3 Land use and Market Analysis The Mend team will review City and Appraisal District data to develop a robust understanding of land use and development opportunities within Downtown. Task 1.4 Mobility Analysis The Mend team will review data relating to mobility, including coordination with the City’s Downtown Parking Study consultant in order to develop a robust understanding of transportation modes and patterns and opportunities in Downtown. The Mend team will coordinate with the Downtown Parking Study consultant to ensure schedules and recommended strategies are consistent. Task 1.5 Open Space and Public Realm Analysis The Mend team will review data relating to parks, recreation, open space, streetscapes, and environmental systems, which, along with observation from our site visit, will be utilized to develop a robust understanding of parks and public realm opportunities within the Downtown. Special attention will be paid to Quakertown Park and a possible outdoor performance venue. Task 1.6 Historic Resource Analysis The Mend team will review data relating to historic resources in order to determine opportunities and constraints within and for the historic core of Downtown. Task 1.7 Advisory Group Meeting (1) The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify stakeholders to serve on the Advisory Group. In their first meeting, the Mend team will facilitate activities to introduce the project, and to develop the project vision and guiding principles. These stakeholders will provide in-depth community and/or Downtown knowledge to help in shaping the engagement approach and process. Stakeholders will be required to provide project information to communities they represent and to participate in other elements of the public engagement. The first meeting will take place in person and will be scheduled to coincide with Task 1.8. Task 1.8 Pop-Ups and Speak Outs (2) The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify two (2) opportunities for pop-up (on site engagement at parks or other existing events, such as farmers markets or other community events) engagements or speak out events (formal presentations to existing organizations) to further information gathering (approximately 90 minutes each). The Mend team will host a total of two (2) pop-up DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 5 engagements and speak out events. These will be identified through the public engagement plan and will consider geographic spread and sizes of audiences. These events will be in-person during task 1.8, unless a virtual meeting is requested by a specific targeted group. Task 1.9 Online Community Surveys and Interactive Mapping (2) The Mend team will work with the Advisory Group and the City Staff to develop two (2) community surveys to be distributed electronically, one for Downtown as a whole and one specific to Quakertown Park. These community surveys and interactive mapping will be built by the Mend team using the Social Pinpoint tool, and the content will be developed with support from the City Staff and Advisory Group. The Mend team will collaborate with the City Staff on a strategy to advertise the surveys, and will create attractive, concise and user-friendly materials to advertise the surveys, as well as for pop-ups and other events (for example, lawn signs, mailers, coaster, posters or other materials), according to the public engagement plan. Each survey will inform the needs assessment and the preliminary recommendations, one for Downtown as a whole and one for Quakertown Park. The Mend Team will also develop in person survey materials that “mirror” the online survey and maps that can be utilized by City Staff to conduct additional in person surveys. Task 1.10 Case for Action The information obtained in the “Understand” phase will be analyzed and compiled into a Case for Action to be presented to the City Staff and released to the community. The results of the Case for Action will take the form of story maps and recorded videos (script to be provided to City Staff for review in advance) and will include maps, analysis graphics, charts, and other graphics-intensive elements and will include a written summary. Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task. While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement Plan, City Staff will be expected to: ● Provide for meeting logistics, including locations and food ● Utilize their communications channels ● Provide local knowledge and insight into stakeholders, outreach and the local community ● Participate in distributing posters, signs and other promotional materials ● Review and comment upon deliverables in an agreed upon format and timeframe ● Compiling and providing access to existing planning documents and data ● Provide additional outreach information gathered through staff lead public engagement ● The Mend team will design surveys and pop ups in ways that City Staff will be able to expand upon the engagement conducted by the Mend team if desired Phase 1 Deliverables ● Summary of Analyses performed in Phase 1 DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 6 ● Engagement Materials that includes multiple print and online materials for the Advisory Group Meeting and two (2) Pop-Ups and Speak Out events ● Engagement Summary (a graphic document to be distributed externally) of the Advisory Group Meeting and Pop-Ups and Speak Outs performed in Phase 1 ● Online Community Surveys and Interactive Mapping that includes the use of Social Pinpoint ● Case for Action (a PDF slide deck or an online GIS story map, accompanied by a video presentation of the materials for an external audience; video script provided to City Staff for review and approval; maps, analysis graphics, charts, and other graphics-intensive elements; and a written summary) Phase 2: Envision Timeline: Months 4-6 In this phase, the Mend team will study, refine, and develop draft strategies using a conceptual planning format based on the “three p’s”: Projects, Programs, and Policies. Projects are physical and usually require greater amounts of time and funding. Programs can be relatively easy to implement, but require staffing capacity to maintain. Policies, such as regulatory changes, often have almost no cost but can be politically challenging. A mix of strategies that will work together to achieve the project’s goals, with each recommendation catalyzing others will be prepared by the Mend team and provided to City Staff. The recommended strategies identified will cite findings from the Case for Action in support of those strategies and the project’s goals, providing a clear understanding of how they came about. If implemented, these strategies— projects, programs and policies—will support quality of life improvements and catalyze support of ongoing investment in Denton’s Downtown. Task 2.1 Finalize Vision and Community Priorities Summary Based on the results of the Understand phase, the Mend team will prepare a Community Priorities Summary document that contains digestible results of all engagement efforts thus far. The summary’s structure will be organized into key themes that set a foundation for the Plan vision and guiding principles. Task 2.2 Draft Development and Land Use Strategies Based on the analysis and Case for Action developed in Tasks 1.1 through 1.10, the Mend team will develop strategies for development and land use. This will include the development of a composite analysis to identify opportunity/catalyst sites within Downtown and will include, but not be limited to: ● total appraisal value ● ownership ● historic resources ● utility easements/runs on each block of properties DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 7 Based on this analysis, the Mend team will then prepare a 10-year programming analysis for residential, retail, and employment uses with specific building areas by type identified to further validate proposed strategies related to development and land use. Task 2.3 Draft Mobility Strategies Based on the analysis and the Case for Action developed in Tasks 1.1 through 1.10, and in cooperation with the City’s Downtown Parking Study consultant, the Mend team will develop strategies for mobility to and through Downtown, with a focus on multimodal opportunities and improvements and policy changes that will support the developed vision and economic opportunities within Downtown. Task 2.4 Draft Open Space and Public Realm Strategies Based on the analysis and the Case for Action developed in Tasks 1.1 through 1.10, the Mend team will develop strategies for catalyst parks, open space, performance venues, and public realm improvements. This will include a full conceptual plan for Quakertown Park and a possible outdoor performance venue where applicable. Task 2.5 Advisory Group Meeting (1) During the week of the in-person Community Visioning Workshops, we propose to facilitate a separate meeting with the Advisory Group. We will present the Case for Action and Strategies in greater detail, and facilitate break-out group discussions based on areas of interest. Attendees will have the opportunity to identify any gaps in challenges and opportunities presented. Task 2.6 Community Visioning Workshops (2) The Mend team will design fun and interactive in-person Community Visioning Workshops where residents, property owners, business owners, workers, and visitors can learn more about the planning process and articulate their vision and preferences for the future of Downtown. We propose to run two (2) separate events on subsequent nights, one focused on Quakertown Park and the other on the full Downtown, although we will disseminate information about both elements at both meetings. These workshops will provide for public input on decisions to be made or direction to the Mend and City Staff team regarding the proposed strategies. Hands-on activities may include a presentation of key Case for Action findings, mapping exercises, facilitated round-table discussions, and a team-led walking tour of Downtown and Quakertown Park before or after the event. We will use simple, tactile materials that encourage people of all backgrounds and ages to participate and express their priorities. To maximize participation, the community meeting may be held in conjunction with popular event(s). Task 2.7 Focus Groups (2) The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify focus groups that represent key stakeholders, hard-to-reach populations, and/or other focused groups to meet with in two (2) scheduled meetings DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 8 (approximately 1 hour each) to be hosted in-person during the days of the public workshops or virtually at other times depending on the audience preference in order to receive specific and actionable feedback on proposed strategies that impact them. These focus groups will be identified based on the initial results of the study to date, but may include residents, business owners, members of the development community, implementation partners (such as TXDOT or NCTCOG) and descendants of Quakertown residents. Task 2.8 Pop-Ups and Speak Outs (2) The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify two (2) opportunities for pop-up (on site engagement at parks or other existing events, such as farmers markets or other community events) engagement or speak out events (formal presentations to existing organizations) to further the development of the Downtown Plan and Quakertown Park Concept Plan. The Mend team will host a total of two (2) pop-up engagements and speak out events (approximately 90 minutes each). These will be identified through the public engagement plan, but will consider geographic spread and sizes of audiences. The Mend team will provide pop up materials that the City Staff may utilize if they elect to staff additional pop-ups or speak outs. Task 2.9 Joint Workshop #1 The Mend team will facilitate a Joint Workshop with the Parks Board, Economic Development Partnership Board, Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council to present and receive input on the Final Draft Strategies Document, including preparing the PowerPoint presentation slides for the meeting discussion. Results received from this Joint Workshop will be used to refine the recommended strategies. This meeting will be scheduled to coincide with Tasks 2.5 through 2.8. Task 2.10 Final Draft Strategies Utilizing the results of the public engagement, the Mend team will revise and incorporate the topical strategies into a Final Draft Strategy Document. This Final Draft Strategy Document will be provided to the City Staff for review and comment prior to release to the community. The Mend team will record a supporting video summary (script to be provided to City Staff for review and approval) of the Strategies to accompany the Final Draft Strategy Document. Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task. While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement Plan, City Staff will be expected to: ● Provide for meeting logistics, including locations and food ● Utilize their communications channels ● Provide local knowledge and insight into stakeholders, outreach and the local community ● Participate in distributing posters, signs and other promotional materials ● Review and comment upon deliverables in an agreed upon format and timeframe DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 9 ● Compiling and providing access to existing planning documents and data ● Provide additional outreach information gathered through staff lead public engagement ● The Mend team will design surveys and pop ups in ways that City Staff will be able to expand upon the engagement conducted by the Mend team if desired Phase 2 Deliverables ● Community Priorities Summary that includes the Project Vision and Guiding Principles (a graphic document to be distributed externally, PDF format) ● Engagement Materials that includes multiple print and online materials for the Advisory Group Meeting, two (2) Community Workshops for Downtown and Quakertown Park, two (2) Focus Group Meetings, and two (2) Pop-Ups and Speak Out events ● Engagement Summary (a graphic document to be distributed externally) of the Advisory Group Meeting, Community Visioning Workshops for Downtown and Quakertown Park, Focus Group Meetings, Pop-Ups and Speak Outs, and Joint Workshop #1 conducted in Phase 2 ● Final Draft Strategies (a graphic document to be distributed externally in PDF format, with accompanying video summaries). The Final Draft Strategies will incorporate the following: ○ Draft Development and Land Use Strategies ○ Draft Mobility Strategies ○ Draft Open Space and Public Realm Strategies ● 10-year Programming Analysis for residential, retail and employment uses ● A Full Conceptual Plan for Quakertown Park (drawing, PDF format) Phase 3: Act Timeline: Months 7-9 Task 3.1 Action Items Once consensus on the strategies developed in the Envision Phase have been achieved, the Act Phase focuses on developing the recommendations to a level of detail necessary for next steps in a path toward implementation. This phase includes the refinement of action items, development of inspiring illustrations, and diving into details that will be helpful for plan adoption. We will develop action items for all of the strategies proposed, including policy and programmatic recommendations. As recommended actions are developed, the department or agency with responsibility for implementation will be identified. Task 3.2 Conceptual Design Development and Costs The Mend team will identify no more than four (4) catalyst projects that will be developed in greater detail. This task also develops the implementation timeline and priorities, as well as a range of costs, potential funding opportunities, and funding related requirements for the four (4) catalyst projects DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 10 (concept designs and high-level cost estimating, and gap analysis will be developed for this phase of the project). Task 3.3 Quakertown Park Concept Plan The Mend team will finalize the Quakertown Park Concept Plan and develop an implementation timeline and priorities, as well as a range of costs, potential funding opportunities, and funding related requirements (concept designs and high-level cost estimating, and gap analysis will be developed for this phase of the project). Task 3.4 Funding and Revenue Strategies The Mend team, in collaboration with the City Staff, will assess the city’s economic development tools and funding levels and make recommendations for funding opportunities and strategies to forward the plan’s recommendations. Task 3.5 Renderings and Graphic Illustrations The Mend team will develop five (5) Renderings or other graphic illustrations for the proposed four (4) catalyst projects and Quakertown Park. Task 3.6 Implementation Workshop (1) The Mend team will hold a public Implementation Workshop. Whereas the first Community Visioning Workshops were dedicated to “what” the Vision for Downtown plan should accomplish, this workshop will concentrate on prioritizing concepts, and “how” to advance them. The Implementation Workshop will involve engaging stakeholders in prioritizing the plan’s strategies, and validating implementation tools, which may include local capital and operating funding sources, public/ private partnerships, and local policy and regulatory changes. Task 3.7 Advisory Group (1) Similar to the “Envision” phase, the Mend team will hold a separate meeting with the Advisory Group. This meeting will focus on relaying the results of Tasks 3.1-3.6 and to gain support for final plan adoption. Task 3.8 Joint Workshop #2 The Mend team will facilitate a Joint Workshop with the Parks Board, Economic Development Partnership Board, Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council to present and receive input on the Downtown Plan. The purpose of this Joint Workshop will be to present the proposed Downtown Plan and identify/discuss any key issues in need of direction and refinement prior to initiating the public hearing and adoption phase of the proposed Downtown Plan. The Mend Team will prepare the DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 11 PowerPoint presentation slides for the meeting discussion. This meeting will be scheduled to coincide with Tasks 3.6 and 3.7. Task 3.9 Implementation Partner Meetings (2) The Mend team will hold up to two (2) meetings (approximately 1-hour each) with key implementation partners identified through the process (in-person if scheduled in coordination with Task 3.6, virtual if that scheduling is impossible). This could include organizations such as TXDOT, development partners or other stakeholders identified through the process. The purpose of the meetings will be to establish implementation partnerships. Task 3. 10 Final Downtown Plan The Mend team will develop the final Downtown Plan. The final Plan will be in a reader-friendly document with sufficient text for communicating the Plan’s goals, strategies and related implementation actions with an emphasis on maps, charts, photos, graphics and tables to convey information rather than using lengthy text. Depending on the preference of the City Staff, a final concept plan for Quakertown Park will either be included as a portion of the Downtown Plan, as a stand-alone document or both. The document will be reviewed by staff prior to its release to the public. This final document will be the final document delivered to the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council for approval and adoption. Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task. While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement Plan, City Staff will be expected to: ● Provide for meeting logistics, including locations and food ● Utilize their communications channels ● Provide local knowledge and insight into stakeholders, outreach and the local community ● Participate in distributing posters, signs and other promotional materials ● Review and comment upon deliverables in an agreed upon format and timeframe ● Compiling and providing access to existing planning documents and data ● Provide additional outreach information gathered through staff lead public engagement Phase 3 Deliverables ● Conceptual Design Development and Costs for four (4) catalyst projects that will later be incorporated into the Final Downtown Plan ● Quakertown Park Concept Plan to stand alone as an external document and incorporated into the Final Downtown Plan (drawing, PDF format) ● Five (5) Renderings or Graphic Illustrations (PDFs, JPG, and Source Files) for the four (4) catalyst projects and Quakertown Park ● Engagement Materials that includes multiple print and online materials for the Implementation Workshop, Advisory Group Meeting, and two (2) Implementation Partners Meetings DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A 12 ● Engagement Summary (a graphic document to be distributed externally) of the Implementation Workshop, Advisory Group Meeting, Implementation Partner Meetings, and Joint Workshop #2 conducted in Phase 3 ● Final Downtown Plan (PDF Document) Phase 4: Adopt Timeline: Months 10-12 Task 4.1 Adoption Support The Mend team also understands that after the completion of the Downtown Plan, the plan must be approved or adopted by the relevant bodies. In this final phase, the Mend team will present to and assist with discussions at the Parks Board, Economic Development Partnership Board, Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council meetings with City Staff providing a supportive role where needed. The Mend team will prepare PowerPoint presentation slides for these meetings. The Mend team will also make necessary minor revisions to the plan documents following each of the four (4) meetings (if needed). The Mend team and City Staff will collaborate to mutually determine if the requested revisions are deemed minor or substantial/significant revisions are needed thereby affecting the project contract. Task 4.2 Project Tracker Spreadsheet The Mend team will develop a final Project Tracker Spreadsheet for the use of staff in tracking the results of the Plan’s action items and subsequent implementation results to assist in the reporting of successes to the community.

Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of this document. Getting paper copies At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below. Withdrawing your consent If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below. Consequences of changing your mind If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures.
