Ohio Code § 1333.33

§ 1333.33.

(A)(1) A moldbuilder has a lien on all molds produced by it and on all proceeds from the

assignment, sale, transfer, exchange, or other disposition of the molds produced by

it until the moldbuilder is paid in full all amounts due the moldbuilder for the production

of the mold or these proceeds.  The lien described in this division attaches when the mold is delivered from the

moldbuilder to the customer. (2) The amount of the lien described in division (A)(1) of this section is the amount

that a customer or molder owes the moldbuilder for the fabrication, repair, or modification

of the mold. (3) The moldbuilder retains the lien described in division (A)(1) of this section even

if the moldbuilder is not in possession of the mold for which the lien is claimed. (B) A moldbuilder perfects a lien described in division (A) of this section by filing

a financing statement in accordance with the requirements of section 1309.502 of the Revised Code , which filing constitutes constructive notice of the lien described in division (A)

of this section. (C) The perfected lien described in division (B) of this section remains valid until

all of the following occur: (1) The moldbuilder receives the full amount due it for the mold. (2) The customer receives a verified statement from the molder that the molder has paid

the amount for which the lien is claimed. (3) The financing statement is terminated. (D) The priority of a perfected lien described in division (B) of this section on the

same mold shall be determined based on the time that the lien attaches.  The first lien that attaches pursuant to division (A)(1) of this section has priority

over liens that attach subsequent to the first lien. (E)(1) Any provision of a contract that waives a moldbuilder's right or an obligation of

a person established by sections 1333.32 to 1333.34 of the Revised Code is void and unenforceable as against public policy.  Division (E)(1) of this section does not affect the validity of other provisions

of the contract or of a related document, policy, or agreement that can be given effect

without the voided provision. (2) Any provision of a contract requiring the application of the law of another state

rather than sections 1333.32 to 1333.34 of the Revised Code is void and unenforceable as against public policy.
