Section 536(2) was construed as making post-petition dispositions voidable rather than automatically void, so the court could validate a bona fide transaction if it benefited the company or creditors.

Alleged statutory dues did not defeat validation on the material before the court. The second transaction, being a private inter se transfer, was held outside the scope of the application and was not adjudicated.
