The gross proceeds of the offering amounted to approximately USD 4.4 million (€ 4.6 million).
On October 31, 2022 the Company closed a sale and leaseback transaction (the “Sale-Leaseback”) regarding voxeljet AG’s properties located in Friedberg, Free State of Bavaria, Germany with IntReal International Real Estate Kapitalverwaltungsgesellschaft mbH, which was initiated on August 11, 2022.
