MEC shall not be liable for any damages, payments, losses, costs, expenses and liabilities which are due to a failure by Customer to comply with MEC’s instructions for storage or use of any product. In no event shall MEC be liable for any consequential, indirect or exemplary damages, including but not limited to loss of profit or turnover, downtime costs or claims from Buyer’s customers for such damages.
