The parties agree that such amounts are reasonable pre-estimates of the damages that DCL will suffer as a result of delay based on circumstances existing at the time the order was issued and are to be assessed as liquidated damages and not as a penalty. If Supplier does not comply with DCL’s delivery schedule, DCL may require delivery by fastest method at Supplier’s cost.
