ROMANIAN COURT UPHOLDS INJUNCTION AGAINST ZTE ROMANIA
9th Time That Preliminary Injunction Has Been Challenged and Upheld
NEW YORK -September 2, 2015- Vringo, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNG), a company engaged in the innovation, development and monetization of intellectual property, today announced that, on August 31, 2015, the Bucharest Tribunal denied ZTE Romania's latest attempt to overturn Vringo's preliminary injunction against ZTE Romania.
Since June 30, 2014, Vringo's preliminary injunction has restrained ZTE Romania from commercializing any 4G LTE mobile phone or infrastructure equipment manufactured by ZTE Corporation which incorporates 4G LTE technology.
On August 6, 2015, ZTE Romania filed a new motion, asking the court to revoke the preliminary injunction, and, as a subsequent request, to replace the preliminary injunction with a bond to be paid by ZTE Romania. ZTE Romania argued that (1) the preliminary injunction prevents ZTE Romania from honoring its binding contractual obligations, thereby triggering substantial damages, and (2) Vringo has not complied with the requirements set forth by the European Court of Justice in its Huawei v. ZTE decision, which was rendered on July 16, 2015.
On August 31, 2015, the Bucharest Tribunal rejected all of ZTE Romania's arguments and denied ZTE Romania's request as ungrounded. This was ZTE Romania's ninth attempt to overturn and/or suspend the enforcement of the preliminary injunction since the preliminary injunction was granted on June 30, 2014.
Following this latest rejection of ZTE Romania's attempt to overturn the preliminary injunction, ZTE Romania remains enjoined from commercializing any 4G LTE mobile phone or infrastructure equipment manufactured by ZTE Corporation which incorporates 4G LTE technology.
