be in breach of the Trading Agreement and shall pay to the

damages shall be in lieu of all liability for any and all extra
costs, losses or expenses, claims, penalties and any other damages
whether special or consequential and of whatsoever nature incurred
by the Ordering Entity which are occasioned by such delay in
delivery. These liquidated damages do not constitute a penalty and
the parties, having bargained in good faith for such specific
damages, are estopped from contesting the validity or
enforceability of such damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

parties agree on another method to resolve the failure.
16. TERMINATION

Agreement or an Order placed by BT and in the case of such a
breach which is capable of remedy, fails to remedy the breach

or.
16.2.6 The management, ownership or control of Commerce One is
materially changed to the detriment of BT as may
determine upon the exercise of its reasonable judgment.
16.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 16.4 if either Commerce
One or an Ordering Entity commits a material or persistent breach
of an Order and in the case of such a breach which is capable of
remedy, fails to remedy the breach within thirty (30) working days
(or such longer period as the Ordering Entity or Commerce One may
agree in writing) of written notice from the Ordering Entity or
Commerce One, as applicable, then, without prejudice to any other
rights or remedies Commerce One or the Ordering Entity may have,
the non-breaching party shall have the right at any time after

and to claim for all resulting losses and expenses (including,
without limitation, the cost of completing the Work, or having the
Work completed by another Contractor, to a similar standard).
16.4 Without prejudice to other rights or remedies it may have, either
Commerce One or an Ordering Entity shall have the right to cancel

other rights and remedies it may have, terminate Orders forthwith
on forty five (45) days written notice. Where the Ordering Entity
terminates Orders under this Condition and does not have any other
right to terminate as set forth above, the Ordering Entity shall
pay Commerce One such amounts as may be necessary to cover its
reasonable costs and outstanding and unavoidable commitments
necessarily incurred solely in performing the Orders in relation
to the Work ordered by the Ordering Entity before the date of
termination and for which payment has not at that date become due
from the Ordering Entity ("the Applicable Work"). However, the
Ordering Entity shall not pay for any such costs or commitments
that the Commerce One is able to mitigate and shall only pay costs
and commitments that the Ordering Entity has validated to its
satisfaction. For the avoidance of doubt, resource commitments
made by Commerce One to fulfill Orders shall count as compensable
expenses provided that Commerce One can document to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Ordering Entity such resource commitment
expenses.
Notwithstanding the above, the Ordering Entity's total liability
under this Section 16.5 shall not in any circumstances exceed the
price that would have been payable by the Ordering Entity for the

above). Apart from any payments to be made as set out in this
Section 16.5, and subject to Section 16.6, the Ordering Entity
shall have no liability to make any payments to Commerce One in
relation to the Order following its termination by the Ordering
Entity in accordance with its rights referred to above.

including all support obligations as if the Agreement had not been
terminated.

to any provision intended to operate thereafter.
