Recent Developments

 

Launch of Senior Notes Offering

 

On September 9, 2021, Procaps announced the launch of a private offering of an aggregate principal amount of $115 million of senior notes bearing interest at a fixed rate of 4.75% (the “Senior Notes”), of Procaps, S.A., a subsidiary of Procaps, in a private placement transaction. The Senior Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Procaps, S.A. and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company, Procaps and certain subsidiary guarantors.

 

The Senior Notes are expected to be issued in a single tranche, with a final maturity of 10 years and amortization payments starting on the sixth anniversary of the closing of the transaction. Procaps intends to use the net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes primarily to repay existing debt, as well as for general corporate purposes. The financing is expected to be leverage-neutral at closing, from a net debt perspective, which is expected to occur on or about October 2021, subject to customary closing conditions.

 

2021 Colombia Tax Reform

 

On September 14, 2021, Colombia’s President approved the Social Investment Law (Ley de Inversión Social, or the “2021 Colombian Tax Reform”), which includes certain tax measures intended to generate additional tax revenues to fund social programs for purposes of mitigating the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The 2021 Colombian Tax Reform will take effect beginning in 2022, and, among other things:

 

(i)includes a corporate tax rate increase from 30% to 35% for both domestic and foreign entities, permanent establishments and branches;

 

(ii)continues to limit the amount of turnover tax that taxpayers may claim as a corporate income tax credit to 50% by repealing a previously enacted law change that would have allowed taxpayers to claim 100% of the turnover tax effectively paid as an income tax credit;

 

(iii)increases the carry forward period of profits subject to taxation at the corporate level exceeding the profits recorded in the company’s accounting records in the same year, from 5 to 10 years for taxpayers engaged in concession and public-private agreements;

 

(iv)establishes a new normalization tax (i.e., tax amnesty) applicable to income taxpayers that did not declare certain assets or claimed non-existent liabilities for tax purposes, taxing such amounts at a rate of 17%, as of January 1, 2022.; and

 

(v)eliminates the value added tax (“VAT”) exclusion for imports of goods with a value of $200 or less that enter Colombia through postal services. The exclusion, however, continues for imports from countries with which Colombia has signed a free trade agreement, by virtue of which the non-collection of VAT has been expressly agreed. For imports from countries with a free trade agreement with Colombia, the exclusion will not apply if the imports are for commercial purposes.

 

The Company is evaluating the potential impact of 2021 Colombia Tax Reform on its business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company cannot anticipate the impact that the 2021 Colombia Tax Reform may have, nor the measures that could be adopted by the current administration in order to meet its financial obligations, which might negatively affect Colombian’s economy and, in turn, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Notwithstanding the above, the board of directors may limit or cancel the preferential subscription right of the existing shareholders in accordance with article 6 hereof.

 

5.4If after the end of the subscription period not all of the preferential subscription rights offered to the existing shareholders have been subscribed by the latter, third parties may be allowed to participate in the share capital increase, except if the board of directors decides that the preferential subscription rights shall be offered to the existing shareholders who have already exercised their rights during the subscription period, in proportion to the portion their Shares represent in the share capital; the modalities for the subscription are determined by the board of directors. The board of directors may also decide in such case that the share capital shall only be increased by the amount of subscriptions received by the existing shareholders of the Company.

 

5.5The Company may repurchase its own Ordinary Shares subject to the provisions of the Law.

5.6The Redeemable Shares may be repurchased by the Company in accordance with the provisions of article 430-22 of the Law. Redeemable Shares bear the same rights to receive dividends and have the same voting rights as Ordinary Shares. Subscribed and fully paid-in Redeemable Shares shall be redeemable upon request of the Company in accordance with the provisions of article 430-22 of the Law. The redemption may take place pursuant to a decision of the board of directors.

 

5.7The redemption of the Redeemable Shares can only be made by using sums available for distribution in accordance with article 461-2 of the Law or the proceeds of a new issue made with the purpose of such redemption. Redeemed Shares held in treasury bear no voting rights, and have no rights to receive dividends or liquidation proceeds.

 

5.8An amount equal to the nominal value, or, in the absence thereof, the accounting par value, of all the Redeemable Shares redeemed must be included in a reserve which cannot be distributed to the shareholders except in the event of a capital reduction of the subscribed share capital; the reserve may only be used to increase the subscribed share capital by capitalization of reserves. This reserve is not required in case of a redemption using the proceeds of a new issue made with a view to carry out such redemption.

 

5.9The redemption price of the Redeemable A Shares corresponds to their nominal value, being one cent (USD 0.01) per Redeemable A Share.

 

5.10The redemption price of the Redeemable B Shares is the same as their subscription price, being ten United States Dollar (USD 10) per Redeemable B Share (which includes, for the avoidance of doubt, any share premium paid on such Redeemable B Shares).

 

5.11Except as otherwise provided in an agreement existing between the Company and any holder of Redeemable Shares, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the redemption date, written notice shall be sent by registered mail or internationally recognized overnight courier to each registered shareholder of the Redeemable Shares to be redeemed, at his or her address last shown in the shareholders register of the Company, notifying such holder of the number of Redeemable Shares so to be redeemed, specifying the redemption date, the redemption price, the procedures necessary to submit the Redeemable Shares to the Company for redemption and the valuation of the redemption price, as provided for in articles 5.6, 5.9 and 5.10. Each holder of Redeemable Shares to be redeemed shall surrender the certificate or certificates, if any, issued in relation to such Redeemable Shares to the Company. The redemption price of such Redeemable Shares shall be payable to the order of the person whose name appears on the Share register as the owner thereof on the bank account provided to the Company by such shareholder before the redemption date.

6.1The authorised capital, excluding the share capital, is set at eight million forty-five thousand United States Dollar (USD 8,045,000), consisting of eight hundred million (800,000,000) Ordinary Shares and four million five hundred thousand (4,500,000) Redeemable B Shares with a nominal value of one cent (USD 0.01) each. During a period of five (5) years from the date of incorporation or any subsequent resolutions to create, renew or increase the authorised capital pursuant to this article, the board of directors is hereby authorised and empowered within the limits of the authorised capital to (i) realise for any reason whatsoever including, any issue in one or several successive tranches of (a) any subscription and/or conversion rights, including warrants (which may be issued separately or attached to Ordinary Shares, bonds, options, notes or similar instruments), convertible bonds, notes or similar instruments (the “Share Rights”) as well as (b) new Ordinary Shares and Redeemable B Shares, with or without share premium, against payment in cash or in kind, by conversion of claims on the Company, by way of conversion of available reserves or in any other manner; (ii) determine the place and date of the issue or the successive issues, the issue price, the terms and conditions of the subscription of and paying up on the new Ordinary Shares or Redeemable B Shares; and (iii) remove or limit the preferential subscription right of the shareholders in case of issue against payment in cash of Ordinary Shares, Redeemable B Shares, warrants (which may be separate or attached to Ordinary Shares, bonds, notes or similar instruments), convertible bonds, notes or similar instruments. The Ordinary Shares or Redeemable B Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Share Rights may be issued beyond the initial authorized capital period of five (5) years as long as the Share Rights were issued within the relevant initial authorized capital period of five (5) years.

 

6.2The board of directors is authorised to allocate existing shares of the Company without consideration or to issue new shares (the "Bonus Shares") paid-up out of available reserves (i) to employees of the Company or to certain classes of such employees, (ii) to employees of companies or economic interest groupings in which the Company holds directly or indirectly at least ten per cent (10%) of the share capital or of the voting rights, (iii) to employees of companies or economic interest groupings which hold directly or indirectly at least ten per cent (10%) of the share capital or of the voting rights of the Company, (iv) to employees of companies or economic interest groupings in which at least fifty per cent (50%) of the share capital or of the voting rights are held, directly or indirectly, by a company holding itself, directly or indirectly, at least fifty per cent (50%) of the share capital of the Company and/or (v) to members of the corporate bodies of the Company or any of the other companies or economic interest groupings referred to under items (ii) to (iv) above (the "Beneficiaries of Bonus Shares"). The board of directors sets the terms and conditions of the allocation of Bonus Shares to the Beneficiaries of Bonus Shares, including the period for the final allocation and any minimum period during which such Bonus Shares cannot be transferred by their holders. The preferential subscription right of existing shareholders is automatically cancelled in case of issuance of Bonus Shares.

 

6.3The above authorisations may be renewed through a resolution of the general meeting of the shareholders adopted in the manner required for an amendment of these articles of association and subject to the provisions of the Law, each time for a period not exceeding five (5) years.

 

Article 7Shares – Transfer of Shares

 

7.1The Company may have one or several shareholders.

 

7.2Death, suspension of civil rights, dissolution, bankruptcy or insolvency or any other similar event regarding any of the shareholders shall not cause the dissolution of the Company.

 

7.3The Shares of the Company are and shall remain in registered form.

 

4 

 

 

7.4The Company will recognise only one (1) holder per Share. In case a Share is owned by several persons, they shall appoint a single representative who shall represent them in respect of the Company. The Company has the right to suspend the exercise of all rights attached to that Share, except for relevant information rights, until such representative has been appointed.

 

7.5The Shares are freely transferable in accordance with the provisions of the Law, subject to any trading related restrictions to which the Shares are subject.

 

7.6A register of Shares shall be kept by the Company at its registered office, where it shall be available for inspection by any shareholder. This register shall contain the precise designation of each shareholder and the indication of the number of Shares held, the indication of the payments made on the Shares as well as the transfers of Shares and the dates thereof. Ownership of Shares will be established by inscription in the said register or in the event separate registrars have been appointed pursuant to article 7.7, in such separate register(s). Without prejudice to the conditions for transfer by book entries provided for in article 7.9 of these articles of association, a transfer of Shares shall be carried out by means of a declaration of transfer entered in the relevant register, dated and signed by the transferor and the transferee or by their duly authorized representatives or by the Company upon notification of the transfer or acceptance of the transfer by the Company. The Company may accept and enter in the relevant register a transfer on the basis of correspondence or other documents recording the agreement between the transferor and the transferee.

 

7.7The Company may appoint registrars in different jurisdictions who may each maintain a separate register for the ordinary Shares entered therein. Shareholders may elect to be entered into one of these registers and to transfer their Shares to another register so maintained. The board of directors may however impose transfer restrictions for Shares in compliance with applicable trading restrictions. A transfer to the register kept at the Company’s registered office may always be requested.

 

7.8Subject to the provisions of article 7.9 and article 7.10, the Company may consider the person in whose name the Shares are registered in the register of shareholders as the full owner of such Shares. In the event that a holder of Shares does not provide an address in writing to which all notices or announcements from the Company may be sent, the Company may permit a notice to this effect to be entered into the register of shareholders and such holder’s address will be deemed to be at the registered office of the Company or such other address as may be so entered by the Company from time to time, until a different address shall be provided to the Company by such holder in writing. The holder may, at any time, change his address as entered in the register of shareholders by means of written notification to the Company.

 

7.9The Shares may be held by a holder (the “Holder”) through a securities settlement system or a Depositary (as this term is defined below). The Holder of Shares held in such fungible securities accounts has the same rights and obligations as if such Holder held the Shares directly. The Shares held through a securities settlement system or a Depositary shall be recorded in an account opened in the name of the Holder and may be transferred from one account to another in accordance with customary procedures for the transfer of securities in book-entry form. However, the Company will make dividend payments, if any, and any other payments in cash, Shares or other securities, if any, only to the securities settlement system or Depositary recorded in the register of shareholders or in accordance with the instructions of such securities settlement system or Depositary. Such payment will grant full discharge of the Company’s obligations in this respect.

 

5 

 

 

7.10All communications and notices to be given to a registered shareholder shall be deemed validly made if made to the latest address communicated by the shareholder to the Company in accordance with article 7.8 or, if no address has been communicated by the shareholder, the registered office of the Company or such other address as may be so entered by the Company in the register from time to time according to article 7.9.

 

7.11Where Shares are recorded in the register of shareholders in the name of or on behalf of a securities settlement system or the operator of such system and recorded as book-entry interests in the accounts of a professional depositary or any sub-depositary (any depositary and any sub-depositary being referred to hereinafter as a “Depositary”), the Company – subject to having received from the Depositary a certificate in proper form – will permit the Depositary of such book-entry interests to exercise the rights attaching to the Shares corresponding to the book-entry interests of the relevant Holder, including receiving notices of general meetings, admission to and voting at general meetings, and shall consider the Depositary to be the holder of the Shares corresponding to the book-entry interests for purposes of this article 7 of the present articles of association. The board of directors may determine the formal requirements with which such certificates must comply and the exercise of the rights in respect of such Shares may in addition be subject to the internal rules and procedures of the securities settlement system.

 

7.12In connection with a general meeting of shareholders, the board of directors may decide that no entry shall be made in the register of shareholders and no notice of a transfer shall be recognised for voting purposes by the Company and any Depositary or registrar(s) during the period starting on the Record Date (as hereinafter defined) and ending on the closing of such general meeting, subject to compliance with the applicable rules of any foreign stock exchange, if the Shares of the Company are listed on a foreign stock exchange.

 

7.13Any person who is required to report ownership of Shares on Schedule 13D or 13G pursuant to Rule 13d-1 or changes in such ownership pursuant to Rule 13d-2, each as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, must notify the Company's board of directors promptly following any reportable acquisition or disposition, and in no event later than the filing date of such Schedule 13D or 13G, of the proportion of Shares held by the relevant person as a result of the acquisition or disposal.

7.3Les Actions de la Société sont et resteront nominatives.

 

7.4La Société ne reconnaît qu'un (1) seul titulaire par action. Les copropriétaires indivis nommeront un représentant unique qui les représentera vis-à-vis de la Société. La Société a le droit de suspendre l'exercice de tous les droits relatifs à cette action, à l’exception du droit à l’information, jusqu'à ce qu'un tel représentant ait été désigné.

 

7.5Les Actions sont librement cessibles dans les conditions prévues par la Loi, sous réserve des restrictions applicables aux Actions sur un marché coté.

 

7.6Un registre des Actions devra être tenu par la Société à son siège social où il devra être mis à disposition aux fins de vérifications par tout actionnaire. Ce registre contiendra la désignation précise de chaque actionnaire et l'indication du nombre de ses actions, l'indication des paiements effectués sur ses Actions ainsi que les transferts des Actions avec leur date. La propriété des Actions sera établie par l'inscription sur ledit registre ou dans le cas ou des teneurs de registres séparés ont été nommés conformément à l'article 7.7, dans ce(s) registre(s) séparé(s). Sans préjudice des conditions de transfert par inscriptions prévues à l'article 7.9 des présents statuts, un transfert d'actions devra être effectué au moyen d'une déclaration de transfert inscrite dans le registre concerné, datée et signée par le cédant et le cessionnaire ou par leurs représentants dûment autorisés ou par la Société suite à la notification de la cession ou de l'acceptation de la cession par la Société. La Société peut accepter et inscrire un transfert dans le registre approprié sur la base d'une correspondance ou de tout autre document actant un accord entre le cédant et le cessionnaire.

 

20 

 

 

7.7La Société peut nommer des teneurs de registre dans différentes juridictions qui pourront tenir chacun un registre séparé pour les Actions qui y seront inscrites. Les actionnaires pourront choisir d'être inscrits dans l'un des registres et de transférer leurs Actions dans un autre registre tenu de cette façon. Le conseil d'administration peut toutefois imposer des restrictions au transfert pour les Actions conformément aux restrictions applicables sur un marché coté. Un transfert dans le registre tenu au siège social de la Société peut toujours être demandé.

 

7.8Sous réserve des dispositions de l’article 7.9 et de l’article 7.10, la Société peut considérer la personne au nom de laquelle les Actions sont inscrites dans le registre des actionnaires comme étant le propriétaire unique desdites actions. Dans le cas où un détenteur d'actions n'a pas fourni par voie écrite d'adresse à laquelle toutes les notifications et communications de la Société pourront être envoyées, la Société pourra permettre l'inscription de cette information dans le registre des actionnaires et l'adresse de ce détenteur sera considérée comme étant au siège social de la Société ou à tout autre adresse que la Société pourra inscrire au fil du temps jusqu'à ce que ce détenteur ait fourni par écrit une adresse différente à la Société. Le détenteur peut modifier à tout moment son adresse figurant au registre des actionnaires au moyen d'une notification écrite faite à la Société.

 

7.9Les Actions peuvent être tenues par un porteur (le « Porteur ») au travers d'un système de compensation ou d'un Dépositaire (tel que ce terme est défini ci-dessous). Le Porteur d'actions détenues dans ces comptes de titres fongibles a les mêmes droits et obligations que si ce Porteur détenait directement les actions. Les Actions détenues au travers d'un système de compensation ou d'un Dépositaire doivent être consignées dans un compte ouvert au nom du Porteur et peuvent être transférées d'un compte à un autre, conformément aux procédures habituelles pour le transfert de titres sous forme d'inscription en compte. Toutefois, la Société versera les dividendes, s'il y en a, ainsi que tout autre paiement en espèces, Actions ou autres titres, s'il y en a, uniquement au profit du système de compensation ou du Dépositaire inscrits dans le registre des actionnaires ou conformément aux instructions de ce système de compensation ou du Dépositaire. Ce paiement déchargera complètement la Société de ses obligations à cet égard.

 

7.10Toutes les communications et avis à donner à un actionnaire inscrit sont réputés valablement faits s'ils sont faits à la dernière adresse communiquée par l'actionnaire à la Société conformément à l'article 7.8 ou, si aucune adresse n'a été communiquée par l'actionnaire, au siège social de la Société ou à toute autre adresse que la Société pourra inscrire dans le registre au fil du temps conformément à l'article 7.9.

 

7.11Lorsque les Actions sont enregistrées dans le registre des actionnaires au nom ou pour le compte d'un système de compensation ou de l'opérateur d'un tel système et enregistrées comme des entrées dans les comptes d'un dépositaire professionnel ou de tout sous-dépositaire (tout dépositaire et tout sous-dépositaire sera désigné ci-après comme un « Dépositaire »), la Société – sous réserve d'avoir reçu du Dépositaire un certificat en bonne et due forme – permettra au Dépositaire de telles entrées en compte d'exercer les droits attachés aux Actions correspondant aux entrées en compte du Porteur concerné, y compris de recevoir les convocations aux assemblées générales, l'admission et le vote aux assemblées générales et devra considérer le Dépositaire comme étant le porteur des Actions correspondant aux entrées en compte aux fins du présent article 7 des présents statuts. Le conseil d'administration peut déterminer les conditions de forme auxquelles devront répondre ces certificats et l'exercice des droits relatifs à ces Actions peut en outre être soumis aux règles et procédures internes du système de règlement des titres.

 

21 

 

 

7.12En lien avec une assemblée générale des actionnaires, le conseil d'administration peut décider qu'aucune inscription ne puisse être effectuée dans le registre des actionnaires et qu'aucun avis de transfert ne puisse être reconnu par la Société à des fins de vote et tout Dépositaire ou teneur(s) de registre pendant la période commençant à la Date d’Enregistrement (tel que ce terme est défini ci-dessous) et se terminant à la clôture de cette assemblée générale, sous réserve du respect des règles applicables de toute bourse étrangère, si les Actions de la Société sont cotées sur une bourse étrangère.

 

7.13Toute personne tenue de déclarer la propriété d'Actions sur l'annexe 13D ou 13G conformément à la règle 13d-1 ou les modifications de cette propriété conformément à la règle 13d-2, chacune étant promulguée par la Securities and Exchange Commission des États-Unis en vertu de la loi américaine sur les échanges de valeurs mobilières de 1934, telle que modifiée, doit notifier au conseil d'administration de la Société, rapidement après toute acquisition ou cession à déclarer, et en tout état de cause au plus tard à la date de dépôt de cette annexe 13D ou 13G, la proportion d'Actions acquises ou cédées.

WARRANT

 

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received is the registered holder of a warrant or warrants (the “Warrant”) of Procaps Group S.A., a public limited liability company (société anonyme) governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with its registered office at 9 rue de Bitbourg, L-1273 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and registered with the Luxembourg Trade and Companies Register (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés, Luxembourg) under number B 253360 (the “Company”), expiring at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the five year anniversary of the consummation of the Business Combination (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement (defined below)) (the “Business Combination”), or earlier upon redemption or liquidation, to purchase one fully paid ordinary share, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”), of the Company for each Warrant evidenced by this Warrant Certificate. The Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase from the Company such number of Shares of the Company at the Warrant Price (as defined below), upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate and payment of the Warrant Price at the office or agency of Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agent”), but only subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Agreement between the Company and the Warrant Agent (the “Warrant Agreement”). In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant exercise. The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events the Warrant Price and the number of Shares purchasable hereunder, set forth on the face hereof, may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Warrant Certificate refers to the price per Share at which Shares may be purchased at the time the Warrant is exercised. The initial Warrant Price per Ordinary Share for any Warrant is equal to $11.50 per share.

 

No fraction of a Share will be issued upon any exercise of a Warrant. If the holder of a Warrant would be entitled to receive a fraction of a Share upon any exercise of a Warrant, the Company shall, upon such exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Shares to be issued to such holder.

 

Upon any exercise of the Warrant for less than the total number of full Shares provided for herein, there shall be issued to the registered holder hereof or the registered holder’s assignee a new Warrant Certificate covering the number of Shares for which the Warrant has not been exercised.

 

Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the office or agency of the Warrant Agent by the registered holder in person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, may be exchanged in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants.

 

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of the Warrant Certificate at the office or agency of the Warrant Agent, a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any applicable tax or other governmental charge.

 

The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered holder as the absolute owner of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the registered holder, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

This Warrant does not entitle the registered holder to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company.

 

The Company reserves the right to call the Warrant at any time prior to its exercise with a notice of call in writing to the holders of record of the Warrant, giving at least 30 days’ notice of such call, at any time while the Warrant is exercisable, if the last sale price of the Shares has been at least $18.00 per share (the “Redemption Trigger Price”) on each of 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “30-day trading period”) ending on the third business day prior to the date on which notice of such call is given and if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the Shares underlying the Warrants commencing five business days prior to the 30-day trading period and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption. The call price of the Warrants is to be $0.01 per Warrant. Any Warrant either not exercised or tendered back to the Company by the end of the date specified in the notice of call shall be cancelled on the books of the Company and have no further value except for the $0.01 call price.

The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall be on a shelf registration statement on Form F-1 (a “Form F-1 Shelf”) or such other form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of such Registrable Securities, covering such Registrable Securities, and shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit any Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall provide for the resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holders. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available (including to use its reasonable best efforts to add Registrable Securities held by Permitted Transferees) or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities. As soon as practicable following the effective date of a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1, but in any event within five (5) business days of such date, the Company shall notify the Holders of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. When effective, a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any Prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which such statement is made).

2.1.2 The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to convert the Form F-1 Shelf filed pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 to a shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (a “Form F-3 Shelf”) as promptly as practicable after the Company is eligible to use a Form F-3 Shelf and have the Form F-3 Shelf declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such Form F-3 Shelf to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities.

All requests for a Shelf Underwritten Offering shall be made by giving written notice to the Company (the “Shelf Takedown Notice”). Each Shelf Takedown Notice shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Shelf Underwritten Offering and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Shelf Underwritten Offering. Within five (5) business days after receipt of any Shelf Takedown Notice, the Company shall give written notice of such requested Shelf Underwritten Offering to all other Holders of Registrable Securities (the “Company Shelf Takedown Notice”) and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Shelf Underwritten Offering (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Shelf Underwritten Offering, a “SUO Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company of its intent to participate in such Shelf Underwritten Offering, in writing, within five (5) business days after the receipt by such Holder of the Company Shelf Takedown Notice. Upon receipt by the Company of any such written notification from a SUO Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, subject to  the provisions of subsection 2.2.4, the Company shall include in such Shelf Underwritten Offering all Registrable Securities of such SUO Requesting Holder(s). The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form for such Shelf Underwritten Offering by the Company with the managing Underwriter or Underwriters selected by the Holders holding at least a majority-in-interest of the Registered Securities being registered after consultation with the Company and shall take all such other reasonable actions as are requested by the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. In connection with any Shelf Underwritten Offering contemplated by this subsection 2.1.3, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, the underwriting agreement into which each Holder and the Company shall enter shall contain representations, covenants, indemnities and other rights and obligations in customary form for such Shelf Underwritten Offering by the Company. Any Shelf Underwritten Offering effected pursuant to this subsection 2.1.3 shall be counted as a Registration for purposes of the limit on the number of Registrations that can be effected under Section 2.2 hereof.

2.2 Demand Registration.

 

2.2.1 Request for Registration. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2.5 and Sections 2.4 and 3.4 hereof and provided that the Company does not have an effective Registration Statement pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 covering Registrable Securities, (a) the Founders and Union II Holders that collectively hold at least a majority-in-interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by the Founders and Union II Holders, (b) the Procaps Holders (excluding IFC) that hold at least a majority-in-interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by the Procaps Holders (without taking into account the Registrable Securities held by IFC or its Permitted Transferees) or (c) IFC, may make a written demand for Registration of all or part of their Registrable Securities on (i) Form F-1, or such other form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of such Registrable Securities, covering such Registrable Securities or (ii) if available, Form F-3, which in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), may be a shelf registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which written demand shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”). The Company shall, promptly following the Company’s receipt of a Demand Registration, notify, in writing all other Holders of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “DR Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing, within five (5) business days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent a DR Requesting Holder also separately possesses Demand Registration rights pursuant to this Section 2.2, but is not the Holder who exercises such Demand Registration rights, the exercise by such DR Requesting Holder of its rights pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall not count as the exercise by it of one of its Demand Registration rights. Upon receipt by the Company of any such written notification from a DR Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, subject to subsection 2.2.4 below, such DR Requesting Holder(s) shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration and the Company shall effect, as soon thereafter as practicable, but not more than forty five (45) days immediately after the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, the Registration of all Registrable Securities requested by the DR Demanding Holders and DR Requesting Holders pursuant to such Demand Registration. The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than (a) an aggregate of three (3) Registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration or a Shelf Underwritten Offering initiated by the Founders and/or the Union II Holders, and (b) an aggregate of three (3) Registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration or a Shelf Underwritten Offering initiated by the Procaps Holders, in each case under subsection 2.1.3 or this subsection 2.2.1 with respect to any or all Registrable Securities; providedhowever, that a Registration shall not be counted for such purposes unless a Registration Statement that may be available at such time has become effective and all of the Registrable Securities requested by the DR Demanding Holders and the DR Requesting Holders (or in the case of a Shelf Underwritten Offering, the SUO Demanding Holders and the SUO Requesting Holders) to be registered on behalf of the DR Demanding Holders and the DR Requesting Holders (or in the case of a Shelf Underwritten Offering, the SUO Demanding Holders and the SUO Requesting Holders) in such Registration have been sold, in accordance with Section 3.1 of this Agreement.

 

2.2.2 Effective Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.2.1 above or any other part of this Agreement, a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (a) the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and (b) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; providedfurther, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency, the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the DR Demanding Holders initiating such Demand Registration thereafter affirmatively elect to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days after the removal, rescission or other termination of such stop order or injunction, of such election; providedfurther, that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration by the same DR Demand Holder becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.

Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2.4 and Sections 2.4 and 3.4 hereof, if a majority-in-interest of the DR Demanding Holders so advise the Company as part of their Demand Registration that the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, then the right of such DR Demanding Holder or DR Requesting Holder (if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.3, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Company and the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the majority-in-interest of the DR Demanding Holders initiating the Demand Registration.

 

2.2.4 Reduction of Underwritten Offering. In the event of a Demand Registration that is to be an Underwritten Offering or a Shelf Underwritten Offering, and if the managing Underwriter or Underwriters, in good faith, advises the Company and the Holders participating in such Underwritten Offering in writing that, in its opinion, the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities desired to be sold under any such Underwritten Offering, taken together with all other Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account and the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in such Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (a) first, the Registrable Securities of the Holders participating in such Underwritten Offering that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Registration (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”); (b) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (a), the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (c) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

 

2.2.5 Demand Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder shall have the right to withdraw all or a portion of its Registrable Securities included in a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 or a Shelf Underwritten Offering pursuant to subsection 2.1.3 for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of its intention to so withdraw at any time prior to (a) in the case of a Demand Registration not involving an Underwritten Offering or a Shelf Underwritten Offering, the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement or (b) in the case of any Demand Registration involving an Underwritten Offering or any Shelf Underwritten Offering, prior to the pricing of such Underwritten Offering or Shelf Underwritten Offering; providedhowever, that upon withdrawal by a majority-in-interest of the Holders initiating a Demand Registration (or in the case of a Shelf Underwritten Offering, withdrawal of an amount of Registrable Securities included by the Holders in such Shelf Underwritten Offering, in their capacity as Holders, being less than the Minimum Amount), the Company shall cease all efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement or complete the Underwritten Offering, as applicable. The Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration or a Shelf Underwritten Offering prior to and including its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.5; provided, that any such withdrawal shall be counted towards the limit on Registrations set forth in subsection 2.2.1.

2.3 Piggyback Registration.

 

2.3.1 Piggyback Rights. If the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the Company, other than a Registration Statement (a) filed in connection with any employee share option or other benefit plan, (b) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing shareholders, (c) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, (d) for a dividend reinvestment plan, (e) filed pursuant to subsection 2.1.1, (f) filed pursuant to Section 2.2, or (g) filed in connection with any business combination or acquisition involving the Company, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than twenty (20) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution (including whether such registration will be pursuant to a shelf registration statement), and the proposed price and name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, (B) describe such Holders’ rights under this Section 2.3 and (C) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities identified in a Holder’s response noticed described in the foregoing sentence to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering, if any, to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.3.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company or Company shareholder(s) for whose account the Registration Statement is to be filed included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.3.1, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company or Company shareholder(s) for whose account the Registration Statement is to be filed. For purposes of this Section 2.3, the filing by the Company of an automatic shelf registration statement for offerings pursuant to Rule 415(a) that omits information with respect to any specific offering pursuant to Rule 430B shall not trigger any notification or participation rights hereunder until such time as the Company amends or supplements such Registration Statement to include information with respect to a specific offering of Registrable Securities (and such amendment or supplement shall trigger the notice and participation rights provided for in this Section 2.3).

 

2.3.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If a Piggyback Registration is to be an Underwritten Offering and the managing Underwriter or Underwriters, in good faith, advises the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that, in its opinion, the dollar amount or number of the Ordinary Shares that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (a) the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (b) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant Section 2.3 hereof, and (c) the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

 

2.3.2.1 if the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (a) first, the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (b) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (a), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.3.1 hereof, Pro Rata, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (c) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and

 

2.3.2.2 if the Registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (a) first, the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (b) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (a), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.3.1 hereof, Pro Rata, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (c) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (d) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c), the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.3.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw such Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration prior to (a) in the case of a Piggyback Registration not involving an Underwritten Offering or Shelf Underwritten Offering, the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement or (b), in the case of any Piggyback Registration involving an Underwritten Offering or any Shelf Underwritten Offering, prior to the pricing of such Underwritten Offering or Shelf Underwritten Offering. The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. The Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to and including its withdrawal under this subsection 2.3.3.

 

2.3.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.2 hereof or a Shelf Underwritten Offering effected under subsection 2.1.3.

 

2.4 Restrictions on Registration Rights. If (a) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company initiated Registration and provided that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (b) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (c) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days; providedhowever, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any twelve (12)-month period (the “Aggregate Blocking Period”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Registration shall be effected or permitted and no Registration Statement shall become effective, with respect to any Registrable Securities held by any Holder, until after the expiration of the (a) SPAC Holder Lock-Up Period, with respect to the SPAC Holder Lock-Up Ordinary Shares owned by the Founders and Union II Holders, (b) Procaps Holder Lock-Up Period, with respect to the Ordinary Shares owned by the Procaps Holders (excluding the Alternative Lock-Up Ordinary Shares) or, (c) Alternative Lock-Up Period, with respect to the Alternative Lock-Up Ordinary Shares owned by Procaps Holders.

3.1.10 notify the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event or the existence of any condition as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, or in the opinion of counsel for the Company it is necessary to supplement or amend such Prospectus to comply with law, and then to correct such Misstatement or include such information as is necessary to comply with law, in each case as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof, at the request of any such Holder promptly prepare and furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such Prospectus shall not include a Misstatement or such Prospectus, as supplemented or amended, shall comply with law;

3.1.12 obtain a “cold comfort” letter (including a bring-down letter dated as of the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration) from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Offering, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders and any Underwriter;

 

3.1.13 on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion and negative assurance letter, dated such date, of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders and any Underwriter;

 

3.1.14 in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering;

 

3.1.15 otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and to make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);

 

3.1.16 if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $10,000,000, use its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in any Underwritten Offering; and

3.3 Participation in Underwritten Offerings.

 

3.3.1 No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (a) agrees to sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (b) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

 

3.3.2 The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Underwriter shall require any Holder to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the Underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holder and such Holder’s intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law, and if, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts, an Underwriter requires any Holder to make additional representation or warranties to or agreements with such Underwriter, such Holder may elect not to participate in such Underwritten Offering (but shall not have any claims against the Company as a result of such election). Any liability of such Holder to any Underwriter or other person under such underwriting agreement shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds (net of expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions) that it derives from such registration.

 

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, or in the opinion of counsel for the Company it is necessary to supplement or amend such Prospectus to comply with law, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement or including the information counsel for the Company believes to be necessary to comply with law (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice such that the Registration Statement or Prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, as applicable, will not include a Misstatement and complies with law), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary for such purpose; provided, that each day of any such suspension pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall correspondingly decrease the Aggregate Blocking Period available to the Company during any twelve (12)-month period pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.

 

3.5 Covenants of the Company. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company hereby covenants and agrees at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Ordinary Shares held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

Article IV
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

 

4.1 Indemnification.

 

4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors, partners, shareholders or members, employees, agents, investment advisors and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act and Exchange Act) from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), joint or several (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) (collectively, “Claims”), to which any such Holder or other persons may become subject, insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based on any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company will reimburse such Holder or other person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; except insofar as the Claim or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such filing in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act and Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

 

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, the Company may require that, as a condition to including any Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement, the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from such Holder, to indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act and Exchange Act) from and against any Claims, to which any the Company or such other persons may become subject, insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based on any untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; providedhowever, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act and Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Underwriter shall require any Holder of Registrable Securities to provide any indemnification other than that provided hereinabove in this subsection 4.1.2, and, if, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts, an Underwriter requires any Holder of Registrable Securities to provide additional indemnification, such Holder may elect not to participate in such Underwritten Offering (but shall not have any claim against the Company as a result of such election).

 

4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (a) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any Claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (b) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such Claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one (1) counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) and which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault or culpability on the part of such indemnified party or does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 

14

 

 

4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, partners, shareholders or members, employees, agents, investment advisors or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the Transfer of Registrable Securities.

 

4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Claims, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Claims (a) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the offering of the Registrable Securities or (b) if the allocation provided by clause (a) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (a) above but also to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; providedhowever, that the liability of any Holder or any director, officer, employee, agent, investment advisor or controlling person thereof under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.14.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

4.1.6 The indemnification required by this Section 4.1 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred.

Section 2.1 Board Nomination Rights.

 

(a) Board Composition. The size of the Board shall be such number as approved by the shareholders of the Company at a General Meeting.

 

(b) Shareholder Nominees.

 

(i) In connection with any General Meeting at which Directors are to be elected, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the Shareholder shall have the right to propose for appointment a number of Directors that equals a majority of the Board (each such Director proposed for appointment by the Shareholder, a “Majority Shareholder Director”). At least one-half of the Majority Shareholder Directors must qualify as Independent Directors, subject to any independence requirements established by the listing rules of the stock exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are listed that would require a greater number of Majority Shareholder Directors to qualify as Independent Directors, provided that the Shareholder shall not be required to nominate any additional Independent Directors unless and until all of the Directors, other than the Majority Shareholder Directors, qualify as Independent Directors.

 

(ii) If at any point in time the Directors on the Board are divided into classes, the Board will use reasonable efforts to apportion the Majority Shareholder Directors among such classes so as to maintain the number of Majority Shareholder Directors in each class as nearly equal as possible. For so long as the Company maintains any committee, such committees shall each include at least one Majority Shareholder Director (but only to the extent such Director (A) qualifies as an Independent Director and (B) with respect to membership on the Audit Committee or Compensation Committee, meets the heightened independence requirements applicable to audit committees and compensation committees, as applicable, under the Securities Exchange Commission and within the context of the criteria established by the listing rules of the stock exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are listed).

 

(iii) In connection with any General Meeting at which Directors are to be elected, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, for as long as Hoche owns no less than seven (7%) of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company (subject to adjustment for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like), Hoche shall have the right to propose for appointment one Director (such Director, the “Hoche Shareholder Director,” and collectively with the Majority Shareholder Directors, each a “Shareholder Director” and collectively, the “Shareholder Directors”). On the Closing (as defined under the Business Combination Agreement) and until the one-year anniversary of the preceding annual General Meeting, Alejandro Weinstein shall be the Hoche Shareholder Director.

(d) Additional Nomination Procedures.

 

(i) In connection with any General Meeting at which Directors are to be elected, the Company shall treat any Shareholder Director previously proposed for appointment in accordance with Section 2.1(b) and who is then in office as a Shareholder Director unless and until the Company receives contrary notice from the Shareholder or Hoche, as applicable. With respect to any person that will be proposed for appointment as a Shareholder Director for the first time at any General Meeting, the Shareholder or Hoche, as applicable, shall propose such Shareholder Director for appointment by delivering to the Company a written statement at least 90 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding annual General Meeting that (A) informs the Company of such Shareholder Director’s nomination and (B) sets forth such Shareholder Director’s name, business address, telephone number, and e-mail address. The Company may require any Shareholder Director to (i) provide the Company with a completed and executed copy of the Company’s standard director questionnaire applicable to all other Directors; (ii) provide the Company with the Shareholder Director’s written consent to a customary background check, which consent shall be provided promptly after the Shareholder Director is appointed to the Board; (iii) complete a reasonably satisfactory interview with the Governance Committee (or similarly designated committee) and Board, which shall be completed as promptly as practicable following receipt of a completed director questionnaire; and (iv) provide such other information as the Company may reasonably request, including information that the Company is required to disclose with respect to such Shareholder Director pursuant to applicable Law or the rules of any securities exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are listed.

 

(ii) The Governance Committee shall evaluate each Shareholder Director and determine whether such candidate satisfies the qualifications contemplated by Section 2.1(d) (with such determination to be made in good faith and not to be unreasonably made, withheld or delayed). If the Governance Committee so determines that such candidate satisfies such qualifications, then, unless otherwise required by its fiduciary duties (as determined in good faith by the Governance Committee after consultation with legal counsel), the Governance Committee shall recommend such Shareholder Director to the Board for inclusion in the slate of directors that is included in any proxy statement (or similar document) of the Company in respect of any General Meeting at which Directors are to be elected. The Company, the Shareholder and the Other Shareholders shall take all action to ensure that the Governance Committee complies with the preceding sentence.

 

(iii) In the event the Board or the Governance Committee declines, in good faith, to approve any Shareholder Director, the Shareholder and Hoche, as applicable, may propose a new nominee in accordance with the approval process described in this Section 2.1(d) until a nominee is approved in accordance with this Section. If the Company identifies any reason under applicable Law why a person proposed for appointment as a Director pursuant to Section 2.1(b) cannot be seated as a Director, then (x) the Company shall promptly notify the Shareholder or Hoche, as applicable, of that fact and (y) the Company and the Shareholder or Hoche, as applicable, shall cooperate in good faith to eliminate such impediment or the Shareholder or Hoche, as applicable, shall identify another nominee in accordance with this Section 2.1.

This SHARE FORFEITURE AGREEMENT, dated as of September 29, 2021 (this “Agreement”), is by and among (a) Crynssen Pharma Group Limited, a private limited liability company registered and incorporated under the laws of Malta (the “Company”), (b) Procaps Group, S.A., a public limited liability company (société anonyme) governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with its registered office at 9 rue de Bitbourg, L-1273 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and registered with the Luxembourg Trade and Companies Register (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés, Luxembourg) (“Holdco”), (c) Union Group International Holdings Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“UGI”), (d) Union Acquisition Associates II, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“UAA,” and collectively with UGI, the “Sponsors”) and (e) Union Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“SPAC”). Capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings given to them in that certain Business Combination Agreement entered into on March 31, 2021, by and among OZLEM Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Merger Sub,” and collectively with the Company, SPAC and Holdco, the “BCA Parties”), the Company, Holdco and SPAC (as amended on the date hereof and further amended and/or restated from time to time, the “BCA”).

 

WHEREAS, the Sponsors own beneficially and of record certain SPAC Ordinary Shares issued prior to SPAC’s initial public offering (the “Founder Shares”);

 

WHEREAS, in order to consummate the Transactions, the BCA Parties, the Sponsors and other parties to the Transaction Documents have agreed to amend the BCA and other Transaction Documents (the “Amendments”);

 

WHEREAS, the SPAC Transaction Expenses exceed the SPAC Transaction Expenses Cap and the Sponsors have agreed to pay and/or reimburse Holdco and the Surviving Company for any such excess; and

 

WHEREAS, in order to induce the BCA Parties and other parties to the Transaction Documents to enter into the Amendments and consummate the Transactions, the Sponsors have agreed to enter into this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, in the BCA and in the other Transaction Documents, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each Sponsor hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, with SPAC, Holdco, and the Company as follows:

 

1. Sponsors Forfeited Shares. Each of the Sponsors hereby agrees that, subject to, and conditioned upon, the occurrence of the Closing and effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, the Sponsors shall provide written notice to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent, transfer agent and registrar of the SPAC Ordinary Shares (the “Transfer Agent”), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Transfer Agent and the Company, forfeiting and surrendering the number of Founder Shares set forth opposite such Sponsor’s name in Schedule A hereto (the “Forfeited Shares”) and SPAC and the Sponsors shall cause the Transfer Agent, upon receipt of such written notice, to release the Forfeited Shares to SPAC for cancellation. The Sponsors and SPAC shall take all reasonably necessary actions required to reflect the forfeiture, surrender and cancellation of the Forfeited Shares as of immediately prior to the Closing in the books and records of the Transfer Agent.

2. SPAC Transaction Expenses Overage. The Sponsors hereby agree to fully pay or cause to be paid, on or prior to the Closing Date, the amount of SPAC Transaction Expenses that exceed the SPAC Transaction Expenses Cap, other than $200,000 that the Sponsors will pay directly to Benchmark Investments promptly after the Closing Date. Sponsors, as shareholders of the SPAC, in consideration of the benefits that the Sponsors will receive in connection with the BCA and the other Transaction Documents, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, hereby agree jointly and severally to reimburse Holdco and the Surviving Company for the aggregate amount of any SPAC Transaction Expenses payable by Holdco or the Surviving Company in excess of the SPAC Transaction Expenses Cap.

 

3. Entire Agreement; Assignment; Amendment. This Agreement and the other agreements referenced herein constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise) by any party without the prior express written consent of the other parties hereto. This Agreement may be amended in writing by all parties hereto by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto.

 

4. Parties in Interest.

5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

6. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

 

7. Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. Sections 11.06 and 11.07 of the BCA are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

 

Description of the Business Combination

 

On March 31, 2021, Union, Procaps, the Company and Merger Sub entered into the Business Combination Agreement, and subsequently amended the Business Combination Agreement on September 29, 2021. As a result of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, each of Union and Procaps became direct wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and each of the shareholders of Procaps and the shareholders of Union where issued Ordinary Shares, and, in the case of IFC, Ordinary Shares and Redeemable B Shares.

 

Union also entered into separate Subscription Agreements, each dated March 31, 2021, with the PIPE Investors, pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions thereto, the PIPE Investors collectively subscribed for an aggregate of 10,000,000 SPAC Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000,000. The PIPE Investment was consummated immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination, and each SPAC Ordinary Share subscribed for by the PIPE Investors were exchanged for one Ordinary Share, substantially concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination.

 

On April 16, 2021, in connection with the vote to approve the amendment to the then current amended and restated articles of association of Union to extend the date by which Union was required consummate its initial business combination from April 22, 2021 to October 22, 2021 (the “Extension Amendment”), certain shareholders of Union exercised their right to redeem 6,446,836 SPAC Ordinary Shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.07 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $64.9 million.

 

Prior to the Closing, on September 22, 2021, in connection with the vote to approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Merger Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal at Union’s extraordinary general meeting, certain shareholders of Union exercised their right to redeem 7,657,670 SPAC Ordinary Shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.19 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $78.0 million.

 

Additionally, the Sponsors (Union Group International Holdings Limited and Union Acquisition Associates II, LLC) entered into the Share Forfeiture Agreement, pursuant to which, the Sponsors forfeited a combined 700,000 SPAC Ordinary Shares prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement each of the following transactions occurred in the following order:

 

Step 1: Procaps formed the Company, a public limited liability company (société anonyme) governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, which issued 4,000,000 Redeemable A Shares to Procaps. The Company then formed Merger Sub, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands.

 

Step 2: The PIPE Investment was consummated and immediately thereafter Merger Sub merged with and into Union, with Union surviving such merger and becoming a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and, in the context of the Merger, (a) all SPAC Ordinary Shares outstanding were exchanged with the Company for the right to receive Ordinary Shares pursuant to a share capital increase of the Company, (b) each SPAC Warrant will become a Warrant exercisable for Ordinary Shares, on substantially the same terms as the SPAC Warrants, and (c) the Company entered into the Warrant Amendment with Union and Continental, to amend and assume Union’s obligations under the SPAC Warrant Agreement to give effect to the conversion of SPAC Warrants to Warrants.

 

Step 3: Immediately following the consummation of the Merger and prior to the Exchange, the Company redeemed all 4,000,000 Redeemable A Shares held by Procaps as a result of the incorporation of Company at their nominal value.

 

Step 4: Immediately following the consummation of the Merger and the redemption of all the Redeemable A Shares, pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, each of the Procaps Shareholders, effective on the Exchange Effective Time, contributed its respective Procaps Ordinary Shares to the Company in exchange for Ordinary Shares, and, in the case of IFC for Ordinary Shares and 4,500,000 Redeemable B Shares, subscribed for by each such Procaps Shareholder.

 

Step 5: Immediately following the Exchange, the Company redeemed 4,500,000 Redeemable B from IFC for a total purchase price of $45.0 million in accordance with that certain share redemption agreement entered into by and between the Company and IFC on March 31, 2021, and subsequently amended on September 29, 2021.

 

For more information on the Business Combination, please see the Explanatory Notes section of the Report and section entitled “The Business Combination Agreement” that was included in the proxy statement/registration statement on Form F-4 that was filed by the Company with the SEC on August 17, 2021.

 

In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company, the Initial Shareholders and the Procaps Shareholders entered into the Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement which provides the Initial Shareholders and the Procaps Shareholders customary demand and piggyback registration rights and subjects certain Ordinary Shares to certain transfer restrictions, including lock- up restrictions.

 

For more information of the Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement, please see the section entitled “Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination –– Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement” that was included in the proxy statement/registration statement on Form F-4 that was filed by the Company with the SEC on August 17, 2021.

 

On March 31, 2021, concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, Union, the Company, Procaps, certain Procaps Shareholders and certain shareholders of Union prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, entered into the Transaction Support Agreement, pursuant to which (i) the Sponsors have agreed to forfeit certain of their SPAC Warrants immediately prior to the Merger and to subject certain of their Ordinary Shares and Warrants to certain restrictions by depositing such securities in an escrow account; and (ii) certain Procaps Shareholders agreed to subject certain of their Ordinary Shares to certain restrictions by depositing such Ordinary Shares in an escrow account.

 

For more information of the Transaction Support Agreement, please see the section entitled “Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination –– Transaction Support Agreement” that was included in the proxy statement/registration statement on Form F-4 that was filed by the Company with the SEC on August 17, 2021.

Basis of Presentation

 

The adjustments presented on the pro forma combined financial statements have been identified and presented to provide an understanding of the Company following the consummation of the Business Combination for illustrative purposes.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 replaces the existing pro forma adjustment criteria with simplified requirements to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). Procaps has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The historical financial information has been adjusted to reflect the pro forma adjustments that are directly attributable to the Business Combinations and the PIPE Investment.

 

The pro forma condensed combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future results that the Company will experience. Procaps and Union have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

 

The historical financial statements of Procaps have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB and in its presentation currency of the U.S. dollar. The historical financial statements of Union have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as in effect in the United States from time to time (“GAAP”) in its presentation currency of the U.S. dollar. The condensed combined pro forma financial information reflects IFRS, the basis of accounting used by the Company and no material accounting policy difference is identified in converting Union’s historical financial statements to IFRS. The adjustments presented in the pro forma condensed combined financial information have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an accurate understanding of the Company after giving effect to the Business Combination.

 

The pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared considering (i) the redemption of 6,446,836 SPAC Ordinary Shares and 7,657,670 SPAC Ordinary Shares into cash at a price of approximately $10.07 per share and $10.19 per share, respectively, (ii) the forfeiture of 700,000 SPAC Ordinary Shares by the Sponsors pursuant to the Share Forfeiture Agreement, and (iii) the SPAC Ordinary Shares acquired by the PIPE Investor. The shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma combined financial statements are an aggregate of 112.8 million Ordinary Shares issued the Procaps Shareholders and the shareholders of Union.

 

After the Business Combination, considering all redemptions of SPAC Ordinary Shares for cash and the redemption of 4,500,000 Redeemable B Shares, the Initial Shareholders own approximately 3.8% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, the Public Shareholders own approximately 5.2% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, the PIPE Investors own approximately 8.9% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and the Procaps Shareholders own approximately 82.1% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, not giving effect to any Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of Warrants.

 

The pro forma adjustments do not have an income tax effect as they are either (i) incurred by legal entities that are not subject to a corporate income tax, or (ii) permanently non-deductible or non-taxable based on the laws of the relevant jurisdiction.

Accounting for the Business Combination

 

The Business Combination is accounted for as a capital reorganization in accordance with IFRS. Under this method of accounting, Union will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes, and Procaps will be the accounting “acquirer”. This determination was primarily based on the assumption that Procaps’ shareholders will hold a majority of the voting power of the Company, Procaps’ operations will substantially comprise the ongoing operations of the Company, Procaps’ designees are expected to comprise a majority of the governing body of the Company, and Procaps’ senior management will comprise the senior management of the Company. However, Union does not meet the definition of a “business” pursuant to IFRS 3 Business Combinations, and thus, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be accounted for as a capital reorganization. The net assets of Union will be stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The deemed costs of the shares issued by Procaps, which represents the fair value of the shares that Procaps would have had to issue for the ratio of ownership interest in the Company to be the same as if the Business Combination had taken the legal form of Procaps acquiring shares of Union, in excess of the net assets of Union will be accounted for as stock-based compensation under IFRS 2 Share-based payment.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020

 

The pro forma notes and adjustments are as follows:

 

1.To reflect the release of cash from marketable securities held in the trust account. Further, the redemption of SPAC Ordinary Shares in connection with the approval of the Extension Amendment and the approval of the Business Combination has been reflected as a reduction of other liabilities.

 

2.To reclassify other liabilities related to SPAC Ordinary Shares not subject to redemption to permanent equity at the closing of the Business Combination.

 

3.To reflect the estimated payment of an aggregate of $27.2 million that consists of (i) Union’s underwriting fees of $8.0 million, (ii) legal and professional fees incurred by Union and Procaps that are direct and incremental transaction costs related to the Business Combination of $3.4 million and $14.6 million, respectively, and (iii) other legal and professional expenses incurred by Union and Procaps of $0.3 million and $7.3 million, respectively. Union’s underwriting fees and direct, incremental costs related to the Business Combination are reflected as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital. Other expenses are reflected as an adjustment to retained deficit.

 

4.To reflect the proceeds received from the PIPE Investment with the corresponding issuance of 10 million SPAC Ordinary Shares, with a nominal value of $0.0001, at $10.00 per share, or $100 million, netted with PIPE fees of $5.0 million.

 

5.To eliminate the retained deficit of Union of $14.0 million and to reflect the one for one exchange of SPAC Ordinary Shares for Ordinary Shares, including considering the SPAC Ordinary Shares issued in the PIPE Investment and the forfeiture of certain Sponsor’s SPAC Ordinary Shares, at the closing of the Business Combination. In accordance with IFRS 2, the deemed costs of the shares issued by Procaps in excess of the net assets of Union, which primarily consists of cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account and certain public and private warrants liabilities, is accounted for as stock-based compensation and reflected as an adjustment to retained deficit. The stock-based compensation is calculated as follow:

 

       Actual
redemption
 
Fair value of Procaps   <A>    971.3 
Equity interest in Procaps that will be issued to shareholders of Union   <B>    17.2%
Equity interest in Procaps of the Procaps Shareholders after the Business Combination, including the Redeemable B Shares   <C>    82.8%
Deemed costs of shares issued by Procaps   <A>x<B>/<C>    202.0 
Less: SPAC net assets        129.0 
Stock-based compensations        73.0 

 

6.To reflect Procaps shareholders contributing their respective shares of Procaps to the Company in exchange for Ordinary Shares and the issuance of Redeemable B Shares, that were immediately redeemed for $45 million, from IFC. At the closing of the Business Combination, the put options held by IFC and Hoche that allow the two Procaps shareholders to sell their shares to Procaps were terminated, and therefore the financial liabilities that are associated with the put options and the underlying Procaps shares that are recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position of Procaps will be mark-to-market and derecognized.

 

The fair value of each Ordinary Share issued to IFC and Hoche is assumed at $10.00 per share with a total fair value of $275.3 million and the fair value of the financial liabilities associated with the put options and the underlying Procaps shares are assumed at their respective book carrying values in the consolidated statement of financial position of Procaps for this unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2020.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the Year Ended December 30, 2020

 

The pro forma notes and adjustments, based on preliminary estimates that could change materially as additional information is obtained, are as follows:

 

1.To reflect legal and professional fees paid as of the Closing of the Business Combination that are not direct and incremental due to the Business Combination and not accrued for in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of Procaps and the statements of operations of Union.

 

2.To reflect the elimination of finance expenses recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of Procaps for financial liabilities recorded for the put options held by IFC and Hoche, as such put options will be terminated at the closing of the Business Combination. To also reflect the losses for the de-recognition of the financial liabilities that are calculated based on the difference between the total fair value of equity instruments, including Ordinary Shares and Redeemable B Shares, that were issued by the Company to IFC and Hoche and the fair value of the financial liabilities as of October 1, 2020 that would be de-recognized.

 

The fair value of each Ordinary Share that were issued to IFC and Hoche is assumed at $10.00 per share and the fair value of the financial liabilities associated with the put options and the underlying Procaps shares are assumed at their respective book carrying values in the consolidated statement of financial position of Procaps for this unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

3.To reflect the elimination of interest income on marketable securities held in the trust account.

 

4.To reflect the IFRS 2 stock-based compensation expenses for the deemed listing services received by Procaps and the Company from Union, which is the difference between the costs of the shares issued by Procaps in excess of the net assets of Union.

 

5.The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the Business Combination was closed as of January 1,2020. The pro forma loss per share is calculated based on pro forma net loss divided by the weighted average pro forma basic and diluted number of shares. The pro forma diluted loss per share does not consider the impact of securities other than the ordinary shares as such other securities would be anti-dilutive due to the pro forma net loss position, and thus pro forma basic and diluted loss per share are the same value.
