AirWatch Distributor Recognizes Good Technology Patents and Ceases Sales in Germany

SUNNYVALE, Calif. and FRANKFURT, Germany, March 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --  Good Technology, the leader in secure mobility, today announced that Envision Software GmbH, a German distributor of mobility management products for AirWatch, has voluntarily recognized and acknowledged Good's pending patent infringement claims, including Good's right to ask for an injunction and damages in Germany. AirWatch is a subsidiary of VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW).

Based on the statement filed by Envision with the court, the Dusseldorf District Court will issue a corresponding judgment against Envision, including a permanent injunction and obligation to pay reasonable damages to Good Technology for its earlier sale of AirWatch products. Envision is obligated to cease and desist from further distribution of the AirWatch offering and has removed all references to the AirWatch offering from its website. 

"At Good we believe innovation matters. We work hard to create a culture that both encourages and protects invention," said Christy Wyatt, chairman and CEO at Good Technology. "We are extremely pleased to see a distributor in Germany recognize and respect the value of Good's patents and see this as a great sign in supporting our case for injunction."

At the heart of this and Good's other lawsuits is Good's pioneering technology and patents, which are vital to the utility, function and safety of mobile data and devices. To defend its technology investments, in 2012 Good filed lawsuits against a number of vendors, including suits in California against MobileIron and AirWatch. Good has successfully resolved some of those suits and continues to enforce its intellectual property rights in several others. Since August 2014, Good has expanded the litigation against MobileIron and AirWatch to Delaware, the United Kingdom and Germany.
