Explanatory Note:

This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D of Hoche Partners Pharma Holding S.A. (the “Reporting Person”) that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2021 (the “Schedule 13D”) and the Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D dated January 12, 2024 with respect to the ordinary shares, nominal value of $0.01 per share, of Procaps Group, S.A., (the “Issuer” or “Procaps”). This amendment to the Schedule 13D constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 2 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.

Procaps held a general meeting of its shareholders on January 22, 2024, at 3:00 p.m. (Luxembourg time), to revoke all members of the Board and appoint seven (7) new members to the Board. The votes against the resolution were cast almost exclusively by the Minski family. All other shareholders not affiliated with the Minksi family (including the Reporting Person) voted in favor of removing the Board, or otherwise abstained.

On February 12, 2024, the Reporting Person issued a letter to the Board outlining concerns associated with the Minski family’s continuing influence over the Company. The letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.10.

Item 7.Materials to be Filed as Exhibits.

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