BRAZIL'S HIGHEST COURT FOR NON-CONSTITUTION MATTERS UPHOLDS PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION AGAINST ZTE

Twelfth Instance In Which A Brazilian Court Has Upheld Preliminary Injunction Against ZTE

NEW YORK -November 18, 2015- Vringo, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNG), a company engaged in the innovation, development and monetization of intellectual property as well as the commercialization and distribution of wire-free charging and rugged computing devices, today announced that for the twelfth time, a Brazilian Court has denied ZTE's request to overturn the preliminary injunction which was granted on April 15, 2014.  

On April 15, 2014, the 5th Business Trial Court of the State of Rio de Janeiro granted Vringo's request for an ex-parte preliminary injunction against ZTE, ordering ZTE to cease commercializing 3G and 4G infrastructure technology in Brazil.

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

In this instance, ZTE, for the first time, had petitioned the Superior Court of Justice, Brazil's highest court for non-constitutional matters, to overturn an earlier ruling by the Rio de Janeiro State Court of Appeals, which rejected a previous ZTE attempt to overturn the preliminary injunction.

In its ruling, the Superior Court of Justice affirmed the decision of the Rio de Janeiro State Court of Appeals, which held that to delay relief to Vringo would present "effective irreparable harm" to Vringo's legal rights, and that ZTE, in seeking to overturn the preliminary injunction, had not adequately presented an argument that it does not infringe Vringo's patent-in-suit.

Following this latest rejection of ZTE's attempt to overturn the preliminary injunction, ZTE remains enjoined from commercializing 3G and 4G infrastructure technology in Brazil and Vringo remains able to enforce the preliminary injunction.

In addition, according to a report prepared by court-appointed experts following a December 1, 2014 raid of ZTE's warehouse in Hortolândia, São Paulo, Brazil, ZTE has sold at least 360 components in violation of the preliminary injunction and failed to produce several accounting and tax documents that ZTE had been specifically ordered to produce during the raid.
