Mobile Video Remix Platform Launches in Partnership With T-Pain's Nappy
                            Boy Entertainment

New App Allows Users to Create, Remix and Share Music Videos on YouTube,
                          Twitter and Facebook

NEW YORK, Jan. 18, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vringo, Inc. (NYSE Amex:VRNG), a provider of video ringtones and personalization solutions for mobile devices, today announced that Vringo has launched its new mobile, music video remix platform with T-Pain's label, Nappy Boy Entertainment. T-Pain had previously been responsible for one of the best-selling music apps of all time on iPhone. Vringo is currently launching the Android version of the app and expects to release an iPhone version shortly.

GetJar, the world's second largest app store, is exclusively distributing the free, ad-supported Android app. A $2.99 premium version of the app is available on the Android Market.

The new platform allows artists and brands to take their existing audio-visual content and transform it into a customizable app experience. By breaking down a piece of content's audio and video into controllable parts, the app empowers users to create their own customized mixes by tapping different visual and audio elements on an interactive soundboard. Finished mixes can be played, shared and posted across social media and the web on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. Nappy Boy is the first to partner with Vringo on this platform, but it is expected that other major artists will release additional versions soon.

Andrew Perlman, President of Vringo, said, "This application launch is a key milestone for us as it widens the portfolio of mobile products that Vringo offers. This new app platform leverages Vringo's core capability -- developing unique video entertainment for advanced mobile phones."

"Music videos are one of those areas that just traditionally has not seen a whole lot of innovation. We believe this new platform is a first step in really changing that," said Sakinah LeStage, co-producer of the app, from Nappy Boy Entertainment.

Vringo's fully-hosted carrier platform is currently deployed for international partners in five markets with new launches anticipated soon. Vringo's scalable, cloud-based, distributed application architecture enables a carrier's subscribers to browse and download mobile videos, set them as video ringtones and instantly share them with friends. In addition to carrier partners, Vringo has content partnerships with major artists, celebrities and content providers including T-Pain, Muhammad Ali, Turner, Marvel, Hungama Mobile, RTL and Ingrooves.
