Xxxxxxxx to Act 379 of the Public Acts of 1965, the Board hereby agrees that every employee of the Board shall have the right freely to organize, join and support the Association for the purpose of engaging in collective bargaining or negotiation and other concerted activities for mutual aid and protection. As a duly elected body exercising governmental power under the color of the law of the State of Michigan, the Board undertakes, and agrees that it will not directly or indirectly discourage or deprive or coerce any teacher in the enjoyment of any rights conferred by Act 379 or other laws of Michigan or the Constitutions of Michigan and the United States; that it will not discriminate against any teacher with respect to hours, wages or any term or condition of employment by reason of his/her membership in the Association, his/her participation in any activities of the Association or collective professional negotiations with the Board, or his/her institution of any grievance, complaint or proceeding under this or otherwise with respect to terms or conditions of employment.
B. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to deny or restrict to any teacher, rights he/she may have under the Michigan General School Laws, or applicable civil service laws and regulations. The rights granted to teachers hereunder shall be deemed to be in addition to those provided elsewhere.

Observer Rights (a) For so long as each of the BCP Entities and the CPPIB Entities individually own four percent (4%) or more of the issued and outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares (without regard to the voting power of such Class B Shares) and there is no Director who is a designee of such Sponsor Entity on the Board, such Sponsor Entity shall have the right to designate one (1) non-voting observer to the Board (each, an “Observer”). The appointment and removal of any Observer shall be by written notice to the Board. Each Observer shall be a natural person. Each Observer shall be entitled to be present at all meetings of the Board and any committee thereof and shall be notified of any such meeting by reasonable prior notice, including such meeting’s time and place, in the same manner as the directors of the Board (the “Directors”) and shall receive copies of all written materials distributed to the Directors for purposes of such meetings at the same time as the Directors (except to the extent an Observer has been excluded therefrom pursuant to Section 3.01(b)); provided, however, that the Observer shall have executed a non-disclosure and confidentiality agreement and such other acknowledgments and agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Board and the Sponsor Entity that designated such Observer, which for the avoidance of doubt, shall permit the Observer to share information as provided in Section 5.04; provided, further, that such Observer (x) shall not have voting rights with respect to actions taken or elected not to be taken by the Board or be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a sufficient quorum for the Board to conduct its business and (y) shall be subject to all rules governing the Board and nothing herein shall prevent the Board from acting by written instrument to the extent permitted by applicable law; provided, further, that if at any time (upon written notice to the Company), a Sponsor Entity elects to suspend the receipt of the information provided by the Company under Section 5.04(b), such Sponsor Entity may also elect to suspend the right to appoint an Observer in accordance with this Section 3.01.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may exclude an Observer from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if:
(i) the Board concludes in good faith, upon advice of the Company’s outside legal counsel, (A) that such exclusion is reasonably necessary to preserve the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counselor or (B) that an Observer has a potential conflict of interest; provided, however, that any such exclusion shall apply only to such portion of the material or such portion of the meeting which would be required to preserve such privilege and not to any other portion thereof; or
(ii) such portion of a meeting is an executive session limited solely to independent director members of the Board, independent auditors and/or legal counsel, as the Board may designate, and an Observer (assuming such Observer were a member of the Board) would not meet the then-applicable standards for independence adopted by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), or such other exchange on which the Company’s securities are then traded.
