compensar (ver explicação)
Explanation:
A minha sugestão é você inverter a ordem do trecho "XXX may offset such amounts against any sum of money XXX owes to Seller", para que fique assim: "XXX poderá utilizar tais quantias para compensar eventuais montantes em dinheiro que XXX deva ao Vendedor."

Se XXX tiver direito a receber do Vendedor, XXX terá o direito de utilizar esse montante para compensar o que quer que XXX deva ao Vendedor.
