Collections, etc Until such time during the existence of a ---------------- Default as Abbott shall notify the Company of the revocation of such power and authority, the Company may, in the ordinary course of its business, at its own expense, sell, lease or furnish under contracts of service any of the Inventory normally held by the Company for such purpose, use and consume, in the ordinary course of its business, any raw materials, work in process or materials normally held by the Company for such purpose, and use, in the ordinary course of its business (but subject to the terms of any agreement with Abbott), the cash proceeds of Collateral and other money which constitutes Collateral. Abbott, however, may, at any time that a Default exists, whether before or after any revocation of such power and authority or the maturity of any of the Liabilities, make payments directly to Abbott of any amounts due or to become due in respect of the Collateral. Upon request by Abbott during the existence of a Default, the Company will forthwith, upon receipt, transmit and deliver to Abbott, in the form received, all cash, checks, drafts and other instruments or writings for the payment of money (properly endorsed, where required, so that such items may be collected by Abbott) which may be received by the Company at any time in full or partial payment or otherwise as proceeds of any of the Collateral. Except as Abbott may otherwise consent in writing, any such items which may be so received by the Company will not be commingled with any other of its funds or property, but will be held separate and apart from its own funds or property and upon express trust for Abbott until delivery is made to Abbott. The Company will comply with the terms and conditions of any consent given by Abbott pursuant to the foregoing sentence. During the existence of a Default, all items or amounts which are delivered by the Company to Abbott on account of partial or full payment or otherwise as proceeds of any of the Collateral shall be deposited to the credit of a deposit account (the "Assignee Deposit Account") of the Company with a ------------------------ financial institution selected by Abbott over which Abbott has sole dominion and control, as security for payment of the Liabilities. The Company shall not have any right to withdraw any funds deposited in the Assignee Deposit Account. Abbott may, from time to time, in its discretion, and shall upon request of the Company made not more than once in any week, apply all or any of the then balance, representing collected funds, in the Assignee Deposit Account toward payment of the Liabilities, whether or not then due, in such order of application as Abbott may determine, and Abbott may, from time to time, in its discretion, release all or any of such balance to the Company. Abbott (or any designee thereof) is authorized to endorse, in the name of the Company, any item, howsoever received by Abbott, representing any payment on or other proceeds of any of the Collateral.
Payment Permitted in Certain Situations Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time except during the pendency of any case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company referred to in Section 1502 or under the conditions described in Section 1503 or Section 1504, from making payments at any time of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities, or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Securities, or (b) the application by the Trustee of any money deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities or the retention of such payment by the Holders, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee, it did not have knowledge that such payment would have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article.
