Thomas McNeill, Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer, said “We are pleased to announce the closing of the sale of the 555 Building on July 26, 2021. Simultaneous with the sale, we satisfied our outstanding mortgage debt, including interest and fees, on the 555 Building in the amount of $9,352,719, as well as costs related to the closing of the transaction, which resulted in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $14.0 million.

Emmanuel Lakios, President and Chief Executive Officer said, “In January 2021 we determined that the 555 Building was not required for present and any foreseen business operations.

The business operations previously located in the 555 Building have been consolidated into the 355 Building and for the Tantaline group into our Denmark facility during the first half of 2021.”
