credit instruments are applied to a specific invoice, Crestmark
will credit the Loan Account with the net amount actually received.
On the date a collection is applied to a specific invoice, Borrower
will receive immediate credit on such funds in determining
availability for Advances.

Crestmark receives a payment from an Account Debtor, it will
attempt to apply it against the appropriate Account Debtor and
invoice according to the Account Debtor's remittance advice. If it
is not clear which Account Debtor or invoice the payment is to be
applied against, Crestmark may contact Borrower or the payor for
assistance. Unless there is clear error, the application of
payments by Crestmark is final."
