voxeljet AG Reports Financial Results for the Second Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

11. Commitments, contingent assets and liabilities

In March 2018, ExOne GmbH, a subsidiary of ExOne, notified voxeljet of its intent not to pay its annual license fees under an existing intellectual property-related agreement and asserted its rights to claim damages pursuant to an alleged material breach of the agreement. At this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate a contingency, if any, related to this matter.

In connection with the enforcement of voxeljet’s intellectual property rights, the acquisition of third‑party intellectual property rights, or disputes related to the validity or alleged infringement of the Company’s or a third‑party’s intellectual property rights, including patent rights, voxeljet has been and may in the future be subject or party to claims, negotiations or complex, protracted litigation.

13. Subsequent events

ADS to Ordinary Share Ratio Change

On Friday, July 31, 2020, the Company announced that it will change the ratio of its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) to ordinary shares from each ADS representing one-fifth (1/5) of one ordinary share (5:1) to each ADS representing one ordinary share (1:1). For ADS holders, the ratio change will have the same effect as a 1 for 5 reverse ADS split. The ratio change is expected to be effective on or about August 14, 2020 (the “Effective Date”). On the Effective Date, each ADS holder will be required to exchange every five (5) ADSs then held for one (1) new ADS (e.g., if a holder of ADSs previously held 50 ADSs, following the ratio change on the Effective Date, such holder will hold 10 ADSs). Citibank, N.A., as depositary bank, will arrange for the exchange of the current ADSs for the new ones. There is no change to voxeljet’s underlying ordinary shares, and the ADSs will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VJET”. It should be noted that, as of the Effective Date, the CUSIP Number for the ADSs will be updated. No fractional new ADSs will be issued in connection with the change in the ADS ratio. Instead, fractional entitlements to new ADSs will be aggregated and sold by the depositary bank and the net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional ADS entitlements (after deduction of fees, taxes and expenses) will be distributed to the applicable ADS holders by the depositary bank.
