It is understood and agreed by the Parties that (A) Supplier shall be damaged by such termination, (B) it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting therefrom, (C) any sums which would be payable under this paragraph are in the nature of liquidated damages, and not a penalty, and are fair and reasonable, and (D) each such payment represents a reasonable estimate of fair compensation for the losses that may reasonably be anticipated from such termination.
