In the absence of Crown approving in writing a substitute invoice submitted by Seller, Seller shall be obligated to pay Crown for repurchase of an Uncollected Invoice an amount equal to the "Repurchase Obligation", calculated as the Purchase Price paid by Crown for the Uncollected Invoice, plus interest at the maximum lawful interest rate per annum from the Purchase Date less the amounts of any payments received by Crown on the Uncollected Invoice.

ii. the total amount actually collected by Crown from Seller's Customer less attorneys fees and expenses incurred by Crown in collecting from Seller's Customer, minus

iii. the Invoice Amount with respect to the Uncollected Invoice.

d. Crown may determine in its sole discretion to collect concurrently from Seller and Seller's Customer in separate actions.

Right to Settle Accounts.   Buyer may, in its good faith discretion, settle or compromise any Uncollected Invoice.
