No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any event of default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such event of default or acquiescence therein; and every such right, power or remedy may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient. All moneys received pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of this Section or under the provisions of Article VI of the Agreement (after payments of the costs and expenses of the proceedings result- ing in the collection of such moneys and of the expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Issuer, or the Bank) and all moneys in the Construction Fund at the time of the occurrence of an event of default shall be deposited in the Bond Fund and all such moneys in the Bond Fund shall be applied to the payment of the principal installments, premium, if any, and interest then due and unpaid upon the Bond to the person entitled thereto. Whenever moneys are to be applied pursuant to the provisions of this Section, such moneys shall be applied at such times, and from time to time , as the Bank shall determine, but in any event within one (1 ) business day after deposit of such moneys in the Bond Fund. The Bank shall give such notice as it may deem appropriate of the deposit with it of any such moneys and of the fixing of any such date, and shall not be required to make payment to the owner of any participation interest in the Bond until such certificate of participation shall be presented to the Bank for appropriate endorsement or for cancellation if fully paid. Whenever all principal installments, premium, if any, and interest on the Bond have been paid under the provisions of this Section and all expenses of the Bank and the Issuer have been paid, any balance remaining in the Bond Fund shall be repaid to the Company. With regard to any default concerning which notice is given to the Company under the provisions of this Section, the Issuer hereby grants the Company full authority for account of the Issuer to perform or observe any covenant or obligation alleged in said notice not to have been performed or observed, in the name and stead of the Issuer with full power to do any and all things and acts to the same extent that the Issuer could do in order to remedy such default. -8- SALE OF THE BOND: EXECUTION OF DOCUMENTS SECTION 11 .
