About the Proposed Business Combination with Union
Acquisition Corp. II
Completion of the business combination, which is expected to
close in the third quarter of 2021, is subject to approval by LATN
shareholders and other customary closing conditions, including the
registration statement filed on Form F-4 with the SEC June 2021 in
connection with Procaps Group’s proposed business combination with
Union Acquisition Corp. II (the “Registration Statement”) being
declared effective by the SEC. The combined company will be led by
Ruben Minski, Procaps Group Founder, Chairman & CEO. Upon
closing of the business combination (assuming none of the LATN
shareholders redeem any of their LATN ordinary shares in connection
with the approval of the business combination and including the
redemption of certain shares held by IFC), existing Procaps Group
shareholders are expected to hold approximately 76% of the combined
company, which shares will be subject to certain lock-up
arrangements.
Institutional investors have committed to an upsized private
investment in public equity (“PIPE”) of $100 million in ordinary
shares of LATN, which will be converted into ordinary shares of the
combined company upon the closing of the business combination. The
PIPE will close concurrently with the business combination. Subject
to any redemptions by LATN shareholders, there is approximately
$136.9 million in cash currently held in LATN’s trust account. It
is anticipated that the combined company will have approximately
$236.9 million in gross cash proceeds (before transaction-related
expenses and the redemption of certain shares held by IFC) to fund
organic growth through capacity expansion, plant improvements,
working capital investments, e-Health platform improvements and
R&D expenses, inorganic growth via accretive acquisitions and
the redemption of certain shares from IFC.
While the Registration Statement has not yet become effective
and the information contained therein is subject to change, it
provides important information about Procaps Group’s business and
operations, proposed business combination with Union Acquisition
Corp. II and the proposals to be considered by the LATN
shareholders.

Registration Statement on Form F-4 can be viewed here:
