source=file1 NOT [search source=file2 | fields + suplierID contractID]

The subsearch gets executed first and returns the key/value pairs for the the two fields in question and then the outer search gets executed like so;

source=file1 NOT (( suplierID=X AND contractID=Y ) OR ( suplierID=X AND contractID=Z ) OR ... )
