Introductory Explanatory
Note
On
November 27, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Procaps Group, S.A. (the “Company”) approved
the issuance, through a private offering or offerings (the “Offering”) exempt from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of up to $100 million in securities in the form of ordinary
shares of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”) or securities convertible into Ordinary Shares. In connection with such approval,
on November 29, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a Secured Convertible Note Subscription Agreement
(the “NSA”) with Hoche Partners Pharma Holdings S.A., an entity controlled by Alejandro Weinstein (“Hoche”),
pursuant to which the Company may issue up to $40 million in Secured Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) to
Hoche pursuant to the terms and conditions therein, of which an aggregate of $20 million in Convertible Notes were issued on November
29, 2024. The NSA and Convertible Notes are described further below.
In
connection with the Company’s entry into the NSA, the Company entered into various ancillary agreements described below. The transactions
contemplated by the NSA and ancillary agreements described below (the “Transaction Documents”) are collectively referred
to herein as the “Transactions.”
The
sale and issuance of the initial Convertible Note pursuant to the NSA has not been, and any future sale and/or issuance of Convertible
Notes and/or Ordinary Shares in connection with the Transactions will not be, registered
under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration
or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. Neither this Report on Form 6-K, nor the exhibits attached hereto, is
an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein or therein.
Note Subscription
Agreement and Convertible Notes
As
disclosed above, on November 29, 2024, the Company and Hoche entered into the NSA. In connection therewith, the Company issued to Hoche
a Convertible Note in principal amount of $20 million (the “Initial Note”).
Pursuant
to the NSA, Hoche has the obligation to subscribe for and purchase an additional Convertible Note in principal amount of $20 million on
or prior to December 31, 2024 (the “Second Note”); provided that in the event that other third-party investors subscribe
for and purchase Ordinary Shares in an aggregate amount in excess of $35,000,000 (such amount in excess of $35,000,000, the “Excess
Amount”), and consummate such investments prior to December 27, 2024, Hoche shall have the option (but not the obligation) to
reduce the principal amount of the Second Note by an amount not to exceed the Excess Amount. There can be no assurances that any third-party
investors will subscribe for or purchase any Ordinary Shares in connection with the Offering.
The
Convertible Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 8.50%, payable in-kind, quarterly in arrears, and mature on June 30, 2025. All accrued
and unpaid interest due at the end of each such quarterly period shall be paid in kind by capitalizing such interest and adding it to
(and thereby increasing) the then-outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes. Other key terms of the Convertible Notes, including
those related to the conversion thereof, follow:
Conversion
Certain Definitions
related to Conversion
“Conversion
Amount” means, with respect to the Initial Note, the original principal amount of the Initial Note, and with respect to the
Second Note, the original principal amount of the Second Note (for the avoidance of doubt, the Conversion Amount shall not include any
capitalized or accrued and unpaid interest on the Convertible Notes).
“Conversion
Price” means (a) in the event no Triggering Event occurs, a conversion price per Ordinary Share of $0.75, or (b) in the event
any Triggering Event occurs, a conversion price per Ordinary Share of $0.50.
“Triggering
Event” means: (a) the Company is finally delisted from Nasdaq or (b) the trading of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq is suspended (even
if temporarily for any period of time and later reinstated), in each case of (a) and (b), exclusively as a result of either:
(i) the
Company’s failure to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023, as stated on the notice received
by the Company on November 13, 2024 from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq, within any extended time period granted by the
Nasdaq Hearings Panel; or
(ii) the
Company being in violation of any applicable Nasdaq Listing Rule and receiving any delinquency notice from Nasdaq prior to December 31,
2026, as a result of any actions taken by management or the board of directors of the Company prior to the Effective Date.
For
the avoidance of doubt, a Triggering Event shall not include or be deemed to occur in connection with any temporary trading halt that
may be imposed by Nasdaq as a result of a major news announcement or stock price fluctuations, imbalance of buy and sell orders, or any
stock price circuit breakers.
Optional Conversion
In
the event the Convertible Notes have not automatically converted as described below, at any time prior to maturity, the Convertible Notes
are convertible, at the option of Hoche, into (a) the Warrant (as defined below) and (b) a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing (i) the Conversion Amount by (ii) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share (collectively,
the “Conversion Consideration”).
Automatic Conversion
In
the event the Convertible Notes have not converted at the option of Hoche as described above, the Convertible Notes shall automatically
convert into the Conversion Consideration in the event that other third-party investors subscribe for and purchase Ordinary Shares in
an aggregate amount of no less than $35,000,000 in connection with the Offering.
Post-Conversion Adjustment
If
a Triggering Event occurs following the conversion of the Convertible Notes, the Company shall issue to Hoche an additional number of
Ordinary Shares equal to the difference between (i) an amount equal to the quotient of the Conversion Amount divided by $0.50, and (ii)
an amount equal to the number of Ordinary Shares previously issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes.
Warrant
Upon
conversion of the Convertible Notes (whether at the election of Hoche or automatically), the Company shall issue a warrant (the “Warrant”)
to Hoche for a face amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Conversion Amount by (ii) by 0.25 (the “Warrant
Amount”). The Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part to purchase a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained
by dividing the Warrant Amount by the Exercise Price (as defined below). The exercise price per Ordinary Share issued pursuant to the
Warrant shall be $0.75; provided that in the event a Triggering Event occurs, the exercise price shall be $0.50 (the “Exercise
Price”). If a Triggering Event occurs after the date any Ordinary Shares have been purchased and issued under the Warrant, the
Company shall issue to the holder of the Warrant an additional number of Ordinary Shares equal to the difference between: (A) the aggregate
Exercise Price of all Ordinary Shares purchased and issued under the Warrant as of immediately prior to the occurrence of such Triggering
Event, divided by $0.50, and (B) the total number of Ordinary Shares purchased and issued under the Warrant as of immediately prior to
the occurrence of such Triggering Event.
Security
The
Company’s obligations under the Convertible Notes and other related agreements are secured by a first priority security interest
in favor of Hoche in all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Crynssen Pharma Group Ltd, a private limited liability company
registered and incorporated under the laws of Malta and direct subsidiary of the Company (“Crynssen,” and such equity
interests, the “Collateral”), granted pursuant to that certain Share Pledge Agreement, dated as of November 29, 2024
(the “Pledge Agreement”), by and among the Company, Hoche and Crynssen. The NSA contains a covenant that limits the
Company’s ability to place liens on the Collateral or on any other equity interests of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, subject
to customary exceptions.
Events of Default
The
Convertible Notes provide for customary events of default which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods),
among others: (i) nonpayment of principal or interest; (ii) breach of covenants or other agreements in the Convertible Notes, the NSA
or the Pledge Agreement; (iii) material breach by the Company of any representation or warranty contained in the NSA; (iv) any of the
Convertible Notes, the NSA or the Pledge Agreement is suspended, revoked or terminated or for any reason cease to be valid and binding
or in full force and effect, the performance by the Company of any of its obligations under such agreements shall become unlawful, or
the validity of any such agreements shall be contested by the Company; (v) any lien or pledge provided in the NSA, the Convertible Notes
or the Pledge Agreement shall cease to exist once perfected or shall cease to give Hoche a perfected security interest on the Collateral;
(vi) the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries is in default in the performance of or compliance with any term of any
evidence of any indebtedness in an aggregate outstanding principal amount of at least $7,500,000 or of any mortgage, indenture or other
agreement relating thereto or any other condition exists, and as a consequence of such default or condition such indebtedness has become,
or has been declared, due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment; and (iv) certain
events of bankruptcy or insolvency.

Certain
Nasdaq Considerations
On
November 21, 2024, the Company notified Nasdaq that it has elected to follow certain Luxembourg practices in lieu of the requirements
of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5600, with the exception of those rules which are required to be followed pursuant to the provisions of Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5615(a)(3).
Specifically,
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 requires shareholder approval in connection with, among other things, (A) the issuance of securities in connection
with an acquisition of the stock or assets of another company if (i) the issuance will result in the issuance of 20% or more of the voting
power or number of shares of common equity outstanding prior to the proposed issuance or (ii) certain affiliates have a 5% interest (or
10% interest on a collective basis) in the company or assets proposed to be acquired, (B) an issuance of securities results in a change
of control of the Company, (C) the issuance of securities in connection with a new or materially amended equity compensation plan and
(D) certain private offerings of 20% or more of the Company’s common equity outstanding prior to the offering at a price below the
Minimum Price (as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)). The Company has chosen to follow Luxembourg law applicable to it with respect
to shareholder approval in connection with issuance of securities in lieu of following Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635. Under Luxembourg law,
the Company is generally not required to seek shareholder approval in connection with the issuance of securities in the contexts described
above.
As
required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3), Procaps will also disclose in its next Annual Report on Form 20-F, each requirement of Listing
Rule 5600 that it does not follow and describe the Luxembourg practice followed in lieu of such requirements.
In
accordance with the foregoing, the Transactions and entry into the Transaction Documents did not require the approval of the Company’s
shareholders.

which have, in the view of either the Pledgee or the Pledgor, an impact on the valuation; |
| (ii) | it is agreed that the value of the Pledged Shares shall be
established on the basis of commonly used methods (as at the time of the establishment of the value); |
| (iii) | in the event that the previous year’s audited accounts have not been maintained
according to law, the Pledgor agrees that the Expert is authorised to base himself on the most recent drafts and management accounts available; |
| (iv) | in the event that such drafts and management accounts are not available, the Pledgor
agrees that the Expert shall not be obliged to create accounts and audit them according to law but shall be entitled to receive evidence
from the Pledgor or the Pledgee, or such other person as he deems necessary on the value of assets in the Company and to reach a reasonable
conclusion as to the value of the Pledged Shares; and |
| (v) | the non-co-operation of the Pledgor shall not hinder the Expert from making his
report. |
| 6.4 | The Pledgor and the Company undertake and agree to give, produce, make available and deliver (and to procure
that, and instruct, their respective officers and employees to give, produce, make available and deliver) all such documents and information
which may be requested by such Expert for the purposes of the determination. |
| 6.5 | Notwithstanding anything stated above and notwithstanding any action taken by the Pledgee, to exercise
its rights to sell or appropriate the Pledged Shares privately, the Pledgee shall be entitled at any time to apply to the Court for the
judicial sale of the Pledged Shares and the Pledgee shall be entitled (and, insofar as it is necessary to do so, each of the Pledgor and
the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorises the Pledgee by way of security, who accepts) to present as evidence to the
said Expert any documents and information in its possession relating to the Company and its assets and all workings carried out in connection
with the valuation of the Pledged Shares. |
| 6.6 | The Parties agree that voting rights in the Pledged Shares shall be exercised at all times to ensure that
the Company observes all formalities and other time limits set by the Companies Act in relation to the accounts of the Company in order
that the Pledgee’s rights hereunder shall in no way be impaired, hindered or delayed. |
| 6.7 | If and to the extent that the Pledgee, opts to sell or appropriate the Pledged Shares in accordance with
the remedies set out in Article 122 of the Companies Act, or in accordance with the provisions of the Regulations (to the extent applicable),
the Pledgor hereby agrees that in the event that the sale or appropriation of the Pledged Shares in terms of paragraphs (iv) and (v) of
clause 6.1 only makes commercial sense (in the reasonable opinion of the Pledgee) if so sold or appropriated in its entirety, then the
Pledged Shares will be so sold and appropriated, notwithstanding the fact that the proceeds or value thereof will exceed the value of
the Note Obligations, provided that any excess proceeds over the value of the Note Obligations recovered by the Pledgee in the case of
a sale or any excess value appropriated by the Pledgee shall be released or reimbursed in favour of the Pledgor. In the event of such
sale, the Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Pledgee, who declares to have an interest in this mandate and accepts the same as part
of its security, as its attorney (with full power of substitution) in relation to the sale of the Pledged Shares, and the Pledgor ratifies
and confirms and agrees to ratify and confirm any agreement, instrument, act or thing which such attorney or substitute may execute or
do in pursuance hereof. |
| 6.8 | Upon any disposal by the Pledgee of the Pledged Shares, the purchaser shall not be bound to see or enquire
whether the power of sale of the Pledgee has arisen, the sale shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be within the power of the Pledgee
and the receipt of the Pledgee for the purchase money shall effectively discharge the purchaser who shall not be concerned with the manner
of application of the proceeds of sale or be in any way answerable therefor. |
| 6.9 | The Pledgee shall be entitled, at any time and as often as the Pledgee may deem appropriate, to delegate
all or any of the rights, powers, remedies and discretions vested in it under and pursuant to this Agreement in such manner, upon such
terms, and to such person or persons as the Pledgee may deem appropriate. |
| 6.10 | The remedies set out in this Clause 6 are in addition to the remedies granted to the Pledgee under Maltese
law and in so far as it is necessary to do so the Pledgor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorises the Pledgee by way of security,
who accepts, to avail itself of all and any of the said remedies in protection of its rights. |
7. Costs,
Charges and Expenses
| 7.1 | The Pledgor shall be bound from time to time forthwith on demand to pay to or reimburse the Pledgee for: |
| 7.1.1 | all reasonable costs, charges and expenses (including legal and other fees on a full indemnity basis and
all other out-of-pocket expenses) incurred by the Pledgee in connection with the registration of this Agreement, any other documents required
in connection herewith and any amendment to or extension of, or the giving of any consent or waiver in connection with, this Agreement;
and |
| 7.1.2 | all reasonable costs, charges and expenses (including legal and other fees on a full indemnity basis and
all other out-of-pocket expenses) incurred by the Pledgee in exercising any of its rights or powers hereunder or in suing for or seeking
to recover any sums due hereunder or otherwise preserving or enforcing its rights hereunder or in defending any claims brought against
it in respect of this Agreement or in terminating and releasing this pledge upon performance, satisfaction and discharge of all Note Obligations
and payment of all monies hereby secured, |
and, until payment
of the same in full, all such costs, charges and expenses as aforesaid shall be secured by this Agreement and shall be deemed to form
part of the Note Obligations for all intents and purposes of this Agreement.
8. Indemnity
| 8.1 | The Pledgor shall at all times indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee against and from all losses, liabilities,
damages, costs and expenses incurred by it at any time in the execution or performance of the terms and conditions hereof and against
all actions, proceedings, claims, demands, costs, charges and expenses which may be incurred, sustained or arise at any time in respect
of the non-performance or non-observance of any of the undertakings and agreements on the part of any of the Pledgor contained herein
or in any Finance Documents or in respect of any matter or thing done or omitted relating in any way whatsoever to the Pledged Shares. |
9. Continuing
Security
| 9.1 | It is declared and agreed that: |
| 9.1.1 | the Pledge created by this Agreement shall to the extent allowed by Maltese law: |
| a) | be a continuing security for the payment, satisfaction, performance
and discharge of the Note Obligations and accordingly the Pledge so created shall not be satisfied by any intermediate payment or satisfaction
of any part of the Note Obligations; |
| b) | be in addition to and shall not in any way prejudice or affect any other security or other encumbrance
now or hereafter held by the Pledgee or any right or remedy of the Pledgee thereunder, and shall not be in any way prejudiced or affected
thereby, or by the invalidity or unenforceability thereof, or by the Pledgee releasing, modifying or refraining from perfecting or enforcing
any of the same or granting time or indulgence or compounding with any person liable; |
| c) | not be discharged, impaired, prejudiced or otherwise affected by any amendment, modification, variation,
supplement, novation, restatement or replacement of all or any part of the Finance Documents; |
| d) | not be discharged, impaired, prejudiced or otherwise affected by any other act, fact, matter, event, circumstance,
omission or thing (including, without limitation, the invalidity, unenforceability or illegality of any of the Note Obligations or the
bankruptcy, liquidation, winding-up, insolvency, dissolution, administration, reorganization or amalgamation of, or other analogous event
of or with respect to the Pledgor (or any other person)) which, but for this provision, might operate to discharge, impair, prejudice
or otherwise affect the rights of the Pledgee under this Agreement or under the Finance Documents or which, but for this provision, might
constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the security hereby created; and |
| 9.1.2 | all the rights and powers vested in the Pledgee by this Agreement may be exercised from time to time and
as often as the Pledgee may deem expedient, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. |
| 9.2 | No failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee to exercise any right, power or remedy under this Agreement,
or the Finance Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Pledgee of any right, power
or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy, nor shall the giving by
the Pledgee of any consent to any act which by the terms of this Agreement or any Finance Document requires such consent prejudice the
right of the Pledgee to withhold or give consent to the doing of any other similar act. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the
Finance Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. |
| 9.3 | Any settlement or discharge between the Pledgee and the Pledgor and/or any other person shall be conditional
upon no security or payment to the Pledgee being avoided or set aside or ordered to be refunded or reduced by virtue of any provision
or enactment relating to bankruptcy, liquidation, winding-up, insolvency, dissolution, administration, reorganization, amalgamation or
other analogous event or proceedings for the time being in force. |

or otherwise) the Pledgee may now or at any time hold in respect of all or any of the Note Obligations. The Pledgor hereby agrees to promptly
indemnify the Pledgee against any cost, loss or liability incurred by it as a result of: |

Event” means: (a) the Company is finally delisted from Nasdaq or (b) the trading of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq is suspended
(even if temporarily for any period of time and later reinstated), in each case of (a) and (b), exclusively as a result of either:

Amount” means, at any date of determination, $[Ÿ] minus the aggregate

2. Exercise.
2.1 Exercise
of Warrant. Exercise of the subscription rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times
on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed Notice of Exercise
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within five (5) Business Days following
delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable
Notice of Exercise by wire transfer of immediately available funds or good certified check in lawful money of the United States. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder
has subscribed for and purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case,
the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Business Days following the date on which the
final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in subscriptions and purchases of a
portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of reducing from the original Warrant Amount,
an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of all Warrant Shares subscribed for and issued pursuant to all partial exercises under
this Warrant. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares subscribed for and purchased, the
aggregate Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares and the date of such subscriptions and purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection
to any Notice of Exercise within three (3) Business Days of receipt of a Notice of Exercise. In the event any Triggering Event occurs
following delivery of a Notice of Exercise but prior to the consummation of the subscription and issuance of the Warrant Shares specified
in such Notice of Exercise, such Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be rescinded, and of no further force and effect, and the Holder
shall be deemed to not have exercised its subscription rights with respect to the Warrant Shares specified in such Notice of Exercise.
The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph,
following the subscription and purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for subscription
and purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
2.2 Exercise
Price. The exercise price per Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be $0.75; provided, that, in the event that a Triggering Event
occurs, the exercise price per Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be $0.50 (the “Exercise Price”).
2.3 Mechanics
of Exercise.
(a)
Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall issue the number of Warrant Shares subscribed for and purchased hereunder
to the Holder, and shall deliver, or caused to be delivered, to the Holder a copy of the records of the Transfer Agent, showing the Purchaser
as the owner of the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address or email address
specified in such Notice of Exercise by the date that is two (2) Business Days after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company
(such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant
in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable (the “Transfer Agent”).
(b) Adjustment
to Warrant Shares Upon Triggering Event. If a Triggering Event occurs after the date any Warrant Shares have been subscribed for and
issued to the Holder, the Company shall issue to the Holder an additional number of Warrant Shares equal to the difference between: (A)
the aggregate Exercise Price of all Warrant Shares subscribed for and issued to the Holder as of immediately prior to the occurrence of
such Triggering Event, divided by $0.50, and (B) the total number of Warrant Shares subscribed for by the Holder and issued by the Company
under this Warrant as of immediately prior to the occurrence of such Triggering Event.
(c) No
Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional Warrant Shares shall be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of
a Warrant Share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall round down to the number
of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder to the next whole share and the aggregate Exercise Price for all such Warrant Shares shall
be reduced by an amount equal to such fraction of a Warrant Share, multiplied by the Exercise Price.
(d) Charges,
Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental
expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant
Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however,
that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for
exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form duly executed by the Holder, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto,
the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees
required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing
corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
(e) Closing
of Books. The Company will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
3. Certain
Adjustments.
3.1 Share
Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a share dividend or otherwise makes
a distribution or distributions on Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Ordinary Shares (which,
for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Ordinary Shares issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding
Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse share split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into
a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Ordinary Shares into any shares of capital stock of the
Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary
Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to
this Section 3.1 shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive
such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination
or re-classification.
3.2 Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions
effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person (excluding a merger effected solely to change the Company’s
name or domicile), (ii) the Company (and all of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease,
license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related
transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person)
is completed pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities,
cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, (iv) the Company, directly or
indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Ordinary Shares
or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities,
cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase
agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with
another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares (not including
any Ordinary Shares held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making
or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”),
then, this Warrant (to the extent not fully exercised for Warrant Shares) shall remain outstanding, and upon any subsequent exercise of
this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately
prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder, the number of Ordinary Shares of the successor or
acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate
Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares for which
this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of
the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration
issuable in respect of one Ordinary Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the
Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.
If holders of Ordinary Shares are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction,
then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following
such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the
survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and
the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 pursuant to written agreements in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction
and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced
by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of
shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Ordinary Shares acquirable and receivable upon
exercise of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder
to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction
and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of
protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably
satisfactory in the form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall
succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring
to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall
assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor
Entity had been named as the Company herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holder shall have the right
to exercise this Warrant prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction, or any other corporate event or other transaction contemplated
by this Section 3.2, instead of giving effect to the provisions of this Section 3.2.
3.3 Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
For purposes of this Section 3, the number of Ordinary Shares deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the
sum of the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
3.4 Notice
to Holder.
(a) Adjustment
to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver written
notice to the Holder setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares
and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
(b) Notice
to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (i) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Ordinary
Shares, (ii) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Ordinary Shares, (iii) the Company
shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Ordinary Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital
stock of any class or of any rights, (iv) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification
of the Ordinary Shares, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all
of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Ordinary Shares is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (v)
the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in
each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by facsimile or email to the Holder at its last facsimile number or email address as
it shall appear upon the Warrant Register (as defined below) of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record
or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Ordinary Shares
of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date
as of which it is expected that holders of the Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities,
cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that
the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action
required to be specified in such notice. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the
date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
4. Transfer
of Warrant.
4.1 Transferability.
Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4.4 hereof, this Warrant and
all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its
designated agent, together with an Assignment Form duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any
transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon assignment of all or any portion of this Warrant, the Holder shall physically
surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Business Days of the date on which the
Holder delivers an Assignment Form to the Company assigning this Warrant. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the
Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination
or denominations specified in such Assignment Form, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant
not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The Warrant, if properly
assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the subscription and purchase of Warrant Shares without having a
new Warrant issued.
4.2 New
Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company,
together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or
its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4.1, as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination,
the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance
with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the original Issue Date and shall be identical with this
Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
4.3 Warrant
Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant
Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder
of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other
purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
4.4 Transfer
Restrictions. If, at the time of the
surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be either (i) registered
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and
under applicable state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume
or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition
of allowing such transfer, that the Holder provide an opinion of counsel selected by the Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company,
the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require
registration under the Securities Act.
4.5 Representation
by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise
hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or
reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant
to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
5. Miscellaneous.
5.1 No
Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise; No Cashless Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends
or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2. The Holder acknowledges
and agrees that no “cashless exercise” shall be permitted pursuant to the terms hereof and, without limiting any rights of
a Holder to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2.4(d) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle
an exercise of this Warrant.
5.2 Loss,
Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case
of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include
the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make
and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
5.3 Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.
5.4 Authorized
Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period commencing on the Initial Exercise Date and ending on the Termination Date,
it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary
to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements
of the Trading Market upon which the Ordinary Shares may be listed, if any. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be
issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by
this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any
transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue or any restrictions imposed by applicable securities laws).
5.5 Jurisdiction.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance
with the provisions of the Note Subscription Agreement.
5.6 Restrictions.
The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions
upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
5.7 Nonwaiver.
No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right
or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies.
5.8 Notices.
Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in
accordance with the notice provisions of the Note Subscription Agreement.
5.9 Remedies.
The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred
by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance
that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.10 Successors
and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.
5.11 Amendment.
This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.
5.12 Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
5.13 Headings.
The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
5.14 Execution.
This Warrant may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but together shall constitute the
same instrument. This Warrant may be executed and delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” or
similar format data file, in which case such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose
behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” or similar format signature
page were an original thereof.

Exhibit 99.5
Procaps Group Announces Financing, Shareholders
Agreement and Board Updates
MIAMI, USA & BARRANQUILLA, Colombia –
December 3, 2024 – Procaps Group, S.A. (NASDAQ: PROC) (“Procaps” or the “Company”), a leading integrated
LatAm healthcare and pharmaceutical services company, today announced the successful execution of key strategic transactions and governance
updates aimed at strengthening its financial position and supporting long-term growth objectives.
On November 29, 2024, the Company entered into a Secured Convertible
Note Subscription Agreement with Hoche Partners Pharma Holdings S.A. (“Hoche”), pursuant to which the Company may issue up to
$40 million in Convertible Notes. Under the agreement, Procaps issued an initial $20 million Convertible Note to Hoche. Hoche is obligated
to purchase an additional $20 million of Convertible Notes by year-end, subject to certain exceptions.
The Convertible Notes bear an annual interest rate of 8.50%, payable
in kind, and are secured by a first-priority security interest in the equity of the Company’s subsidiary, Crynssen Pharma Group Ltd.
The Company’s key stakeholders, including
Hoche and Caoton Company, S.A., acting as trustee to the Sognatore Trust, (“Sognatore”), Commonwealth Trust Company, acting
as trustee to the Simphony Trust (“Simphony”) and Commonwealth Trust Company, acting as trustee of the Deseja Trust (together
with Sognatore and Simphony, the “Minski Trusts”), have also reached an agreement to support changes to the Company’s
Board of Directors. Under a newly established Shareholder Nomination Agreement between such shareholder groups, Procaps expects to welcome
four new directors following the Company’s upcoming Annual General Meeting on December 16, 2024. Additionally, Mr. Alejandro Weinstein
is expected to assume the role of Chairman of the Board, leveraging his extensive industry expertise to guide the Company’s strategic
initiatives and enhance shareholder value.
Procaps has also renegotiated key debt-related agreements, resulting
in the cancellation of a $5 million junior unsecured subordinated note and a $2.2 million reduction in accounts payable, further supporting
the Company’s financial foundation.
As previously announced, the Company, Procaps
S.A., and certain of their respective subsidiaries (collectively with the Company and Procaps S.A., the “Obligors”) had entered
into forbearance agreements with respect to approximately $209 million of the Obligors’ financial indebtedness. Each agreement originally
provided for a forbearance period expiring on October 25, 2024. As of the date hereof, the forbearance period under each of the forbearance
agreements has been extended to January 31, 2025, reflecting the ongoing collaborative efforts between the Company and its creditors to
support financial stability and operational continuity.
“These transactions underscore the unwavering commitment of our
key shareholders to support Procaps’ growth and operational recovery. These strategic initiatives highlight our focused efforts
to optimize our capital structure, enhance corporate governance, and deliver sustainable value for our shareholders,” said José
Antonio Toledo Vieira, Chief Executive Officer of Procaps.
These developments reinforce Procaps’ commitment
to achieving its strategic priorities, enhancing its liquidity and financial stability, delivering innovative healthcare solutions, and
positioning itself as a trusted partner in the global pharmaceutical landscape.
