Software licensing occupies a unique position at the intersection of contracts, intellectual property, and commercial law doctrines. The difficulty in analyzing software licensing issues directly results from the sui generis nature of software that leads to the construct of what the author refers to as the "software licensing dilemma" -- if software is sold and not licensed, the licensor's ability to control unauthorized uses of its product is significantly curtailed; on the other hand, if software is licensed and not sold, the licensee's rights under the agreement are unduly restricted.

The forum-selection clause in the parties contract provides that the Court of Venice, Italy, is competent to settle any disputes. The choice-of-law provision in the contract provides that the contract is to be interpreted in accordance with Italian law. In Italian law, the forum-selection clause is exclusive. The trial court did not err by dismissing Appellants R.C. 1335.11 statutory manufacturers representative exemplary-damages claim. Although the statute voids the choice-of-law provision, Ohios choice-of-law rules determine which law applies. Ohio law does not apply to the issue of exemplary damages because Ohio does not have the most significant relationship to the occurrence an...
