12.8.2. It is the purpose of this Agreement that there shall be no violation of any Applicable Law denying or restricting the right of financial institutions to transact business as agent or otherwise in any jurisdiction. It is recognized that, in case of litigation under any of the Loan Documents, or in case Agent deems that by reason of present or future laws of any jurisdiction Agent might be prohibited from exercising any of the powers, rights or remedies granted to Agent or Lenders hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents or from holding title to or a Lien upon any Collateral or from taking any other action which may be necessary hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, Agent may appoint an additional Person as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent which is not so prohibited from taking any of such actions or exercising any of such powers, rights or remedies. If Agent shall appoint an additional Person as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent as provided above, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand or cause of action intended by any of the Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to Agent with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vested in such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent, but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall run to and be enforceable by either of them. Should any instrument from Lenders be required by the separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent so appointed by Agent in order more fully and certainly to vest in and confirm to him or it such rights, powers, duties and obligations, any and all of such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by Lenders whether or not a Default or Event of Default then exists. In case any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent, or a successor to either, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and obligations of such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent, so far as permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Agent until the appointment of a new collateral agent or successor to such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent.
