Explanatory Note:

This Amendment No. 9 (“Amendment No. 9”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D of Hoche Partners Pharma Holding S.A. (the “Reporting Person” or “Hoche”) that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 29, 2021 (the “Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on January 12, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on February 20, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on July 22, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 4 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on July 29, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 5 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on August 8, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 6 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on August 12, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on August 23, 2024, and as further amended by Amendment No. 8 to the Schedule 13D, filed with the Commission on September 4, 2024, with respect to the ordinary shares, nominal value of $0.01 per share, of Procaps Group, S.A., (the “Issuer” or “Procaps”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 9 is being filed for the purpose of publicly disclosing certain important developments in connection with the Reporting Person’s investment in Procaps. Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented as follows:

On September 18, 2024, Procaps issued a press release that disclosed issuance of an unsecured subordinated promissory note in the principal amount of $5,000,000 bearing interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum (the “Olvi Note”) to Olvi Investment Limited, an entity controlled by the majority shareholders. Jose Minski and Ruben Minski, current members of the board of directors of Procaps (the “Board”) are part of the group that controls Olvi. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.18.

Considering Procaps’ dire financial situation and operational challenges (as described in a letter to shareholders dated September 3, 2024 from the chief executive officer of Procaps), simultaneously with the Olvi Note, the Company should have demanded that the majority shareholders reimburse Procaps for all expenses and fees associated with the related party investigation. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.19.

Hoche’s perspective is that any attempt to seek reimbursement of expenses by the Board is being constantly repressed by the presence of members of the Minski family on the Board. In this regard, legal counsel to Hoche has sent a letter to Procaps outlining Hoche’s concerns, and again, directing the Board to make a demand for reimbursement. A copy of the letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.20.

Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:

Exhibit 99.18 — Press release issued by Procaps Group, S.A., dated September 18, 2024 to the Form 6-K filed by Procaps Group, S.A. with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 18, 2024.

Exhibit 99.19 — Press release issued by Procaps Group, S.A., dated September 03, 2024 to the Form 6-K filed by Procaps Group, S.A. with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 03, 2024.

Exhibit 99.20 — Letter from Hoche Partners Pharma Holding S.A. to the Board of Directors of Procaps Group, S.A. dated September 18, 2024.
