Explanation

Contingency reserves are funds set aside for unforeseen, unplanned events. An impromptu meeting is unscheduled and unexpected-it arises from sudden issues, emergencies, or ad-hoc decisions that were not planned in the communication plan. This is exactly the type of communication a contingency reserve would cover. Closure conferences, kickoff meetings, and distributed printed media are all planned, scheduled activities that would already be budgeted in the standard project plan. Because an impromptu meeting is by definition unplanned and unpredictable, it is the event most likely to draw from a contingency reserve.
