bibtex export of entries with URL causes errors when running pdflatex

When exporting journal entries with url values using the BibTeX exporter, pdflatex fails to run due to certain URLS not being escaped properly by the BibTeX exporter.

The faulty URLs are like this one (containing a number of % symbols) : http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/abs/10.1175/1520-0493(1969)097<0739:CATOC>2.3.CO;2

If I manually edit the files to escape the % symbols, (replacing them with \%) bibtex runs fine.

Here are the contents of .bib and .rdf files that have this problem:
