For the purpose of any civil action which may be brought within the

Puerto Rico, by or against the Fund in accordance with the agreement,
the Fund shall be deemed to be an inhabitant of the Federal judicial
district in which its principal office or agency appointed for the
purpose of accepting service or notice of service is located, and any
such action to which the Fund shall be party shall be deemed to arise
under the laws of the United States, and the district courts of the

is defendant in any action in a State court, it may, at any time before

United States for the proper district by following the procedure for
removal of causes otherwise provided by law.
