Dear Sir, 

We act for Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corporation of 175 Wyman Street, Waltham, Massachusetts 02451 USA ("our client"). 

Our client is the owner of copyrights in the Software, a copy of which is available for inspection at our client’s offices. The Software is original and the related intellectual property rights vest absolutely with our client. 

Our client has discovered that your company has been using SOLIDWORKS, without the necessary licenses, that is to say your usage has occurred without the consent of our client or any of its authorised resellers.  

According to the applicable national legislation, this is an infringement of our client’s copyrights in the Software. As a result of infringement of its copyright, our client is entitled to, inter alia, the following remedies:  an inquiry as to damages for infringement of copyright including an inquiry as to additional damages pursuant to s97(2) of the Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 and damages pursuant to the Intellectual Property (Enforcement, etc.) Regulations 2006 and Directive 2004/48/EC or, at our client’s option an account of profits; Publication of any Judgment obtained; and Costs. 

If you are in any doubt as to your legal rights or if you have any queries or concerns, then we suggest you seek independent legal advice.   

We look forward to hearing from you before 21/07/2023. 

Next steps 

In the meantime, our client may contact you through its Compliance Team Mediators in order to resolve this matter. Please note that any purchase of the Software that has not been agreed either with our client’s Compliance Mediator or with us on behalf of our client, shall not be considered as a regularization of the unauthorized usage. 

Yours faithfully,
