_Court finds AEKE’s fitness equipment infringes Speediance’s registered EU design
and bars advertising, offering, or selling of the infringing equipment in Germany_

SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Shenzhen Speediance Life Tech Limited("
Speediance"), creator of the Gym Monster smart strength training system, today announced
that the Cologne Regional Court (_Landgericht Köln_, Case No. 31 O 132/26) has upheld
an interim injunction against Shenzhen Qudong Future Technology Co., Ltd. ("AEKE")
for infringing Speediance’s registered design in Germany.

Following the identification of AEKE’s disputed product at the FIBO trade fair, 
Speediance took prompt legal action and issued a warning letter to AEKE on April
16, 2026. On April 17, 2026, the Cologne Regional Court granted an interim injunction
prohibiting AEKE from advertising, offering, or selling the disputed fitness equipment
in Germany.

AEKE subsequently challenged the injunction, resulting in a hearing before the Cologne
Regional Court on June 25, 2026. Following the hearing, the court upheld the interim
injunction in its entirety, confirming that the original order granted on April 
17, 2026 remains effective. The ruling further requires the removal of the disputed
products and related marketing materials from the German market.
