Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, Washington State Department of Commerce (we, us or Company) may be
required by law to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the
terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the
DocuSign system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can
access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and
Signature Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check-box next to
‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the
DocuSign system.
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. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send
to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you
elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents 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
$0.15 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. Further, you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to
receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents
from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure created on: 8/11/2020 4:44:12 PM
Parties agreed to: Dana Ralph
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through the DocuSign system all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or made
available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of you
inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.

address. We do not require any other information from you to change your email address.
If you created a DocuSign account, you may update it with your new email address through your
account preferences.
To request paper copies from Washington State Department of Commerce
To request delivery from us of paper copies of the notices and disclosures previously provided
by us to you electronically, you must send us an email to docusign@commerce.wa.gov and in
the body of such request you must state your email address, full name, mailing address, and
telephone number. We will bill you for any fees at that time, if any.
To withdraw your consent with Washington State Department of Commerce
To inform us that you no longer wish to receive future notices and disclosures in electronic
format you may:
i. decline to sign a document from within your signing session, and on the subsequent page,
select the check-box indicating you wish to withdraw your consent, or you may;
ii. send us an email to docusign@commerce.wa.gov and in the body of such request you must
state your email, full name, mailing address, and telephone number. We do not need any other
information from you to withdraw consent.. The consequences of your withdrawing consent for

herein, then select the check-box next to ‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’ before
