ARTICLE 20 AGREEMENT

Providence School District

The Commissioner may assign her rights under this Agreement, her right to execute the same, or her right, title or interest in all or any part of this Agreement whatsoever, whether legally or equitably, by power of attorney or otherwise, to the City of Providence and/or the Providence School Board (“City”) without the consent or approval of the Union. Such assignment shall require the City to assume the performance of and observe all obligations of the Commissioner under this Agreement. Such approval by the City shall release the Commissioner from any and all obligations under this Agreement. Such approval by the City releases the Commissioner from any and all obligations under this Agreement arising after the date of said assignment but shall not operate to release the Commissioner in any way from any of her obligations under this Agreement which shall arise prior to the date of the assignment. No purported assignment of this Agreement shall be valid absent the City’s approval.
