shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

reduce any or all of the Repurchase Obligations and the Seller-Related Obligations in such order as Buyer shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. 
 All investment income received with respect to the amount in the Collection Account shall be held by Buyer for the account of Seller, subject to Buyer’s liens on such amounts created under the Repurchase
Documents, and shall be paid to the Operating Account in the priority stated above, provided all amounts due and payable to Buyer or its Affiliates under the terms of the Repurchase Documents have been timely paid.
