Explanatory Note:
This Amendment No. 11 (“Amendment No. 11”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D of Hoche Partners Pharma Holding S.A.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 11 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. | Purpose of the Transaction |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented as follows:
On October 20, 2024, Hoche had made a fair and reasonable offer to re-capitalize Procaps, which included $20 million in cash and a commitment to secure another $20 million in third party financing by the end of 2024.
The majority shareholders continue to make meritless counter-offers designed to benefit them alone. Hoche has made it clear that the majority shareholders are not in a position to negotiate, and has accordingly withdrawn its offer and ceased negotiations. In this regard, Hoche has sent a letter, which, amongst other thing, outlines Hoche’s offer, its reasonableness, proposed benefits to Procaps, and the reasons for its withdrawal. A copy of the letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.23.
Item 7. | Materials to be Filed as Exhibits. |
Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:
