ROMANIAN COURT UPHOLDS INJUNCTION AGAINST ZTE ROMANIA FOR ELEVENTH TIME

NEW YORK -September 22, 2015- Vringo, Inc. (VRNG), a company engaged in the innovation, development and monetization of intellectual property, today announced that, for the eleventh time, a Romanian court has denied ZTE Romania`s attempt to overturn the preliminary injunction which, since June 30, 2014, has restrained it from commercializing any 4G LTE mobile phone or infrastructure equipment manufactured by ZTE Corporation which incorporates 4G LTE technology.

On June 30, 2014, the Bucharest Tribunal granted Vringo`s request for an ex-parte preliminary injunction against ZTE Romania, ordering ZTE Romania to cease any importation, exportation, introduction on the market, offer for sale, storage, sale, trade, distribution, promotion, or any other business activity regarding allegedly infringing equipment.

Since that date, ZTE Romania has attempted, unsuccessfully, to have the preliminary injunction overturned eleven separate times. ZTE Romania has done so by petitioning four separate courts, utilizing a wide variety of procedural mechanisms, and re-litigating the same issues.

In each instance, the relevant court has summarily rejected ZTE Romania`s attempt.

In the latest instance, on March 3, 2015, ZTE Romania filed a motion to cancel the enforcement of the preliminary injunction, and also asked for the Court to suspend the enforcement of the preliminary injunction pending the Court`s decision on ZTE Romania`s motion. On September 15, 2015, the Court rejected ZTE Romania`s request to suspend the enforcement of the preliminary injunction as ungrounded.

Following this latest rejection of ZTE Romania`s attempt to overturn the preliminary injunction, ZTE Romania remains enjoined from commercializing any 4G LTE mobile phones or infrastructure equipment manufactured by ZTE Corporation which incorporates 4G LTE technology, and Vringo continues to be able to enforce the preliminary injunction.
