Introduction
This Amendment No. 3
amends the statement on Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”) related to the ordinary shares, nominal value
$0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of RVL Pharmaceuticals plc, an Irish public limited company (the “Company”),
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 23, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1
thereto filed with the SEC on November 23, 2020 and Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the SEC on October 14, 2021. Unless
otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D and, unless amended hereby,
all information previously filed remains in effect.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is amended to add
the following paragraph immediately following the sixth paragraph:
On August 8, 2022, the Company
issued 8,000,000 Ordinary Shares at a per share price of $1.55 per Ordinary Share to AHP LP pursuant to a Share Subscription Agreement
dated August 4, 2022. In addition, the Company issued (i) 6,451,612 Ordinary Shares to Athyrium Opportunities IV Co-Invest 2 LP, (ii)
850,000 Ordinary Shares to Brian Markison, and (iii) 150,000 Ordinary Shares to James Schaub, in each case at the same price of $1.55
per Ordinary Share pursuant to a Share Subscription Agreement between the Company and the respective purchaser.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the
Issuer.
The information set forth
in Items 2, 3 and 4 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.
(a) The aggregate number
of Ordinary Shares and the percentage of total outstanding Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is set forth below.
References to percentage ownerships of Ordinary Shares in this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D are based upon 99,001,271 Ordinary

and allotment of Ordinary Shares on August 8, 2022 described above in Item 4. The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own
an aggregate of 24,763,859 Ordinary Shares, which constitutes approximately 25.0% of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares,
calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Act. The filing of this Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D shall not be
construed as an admission that a Reporting Person beneficially owns those Ordinary Shares held by any other Reporting Person.
Orbit III may be deemed
to beneficially own 1,032,995 Ordinary Shares, which represents approximately 1.0% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated in accordance
with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

of AHP LP, may be deemed to beneficially own 23,730,864 Ordinary Shares, which represents approximately 24.0% of the outstanding Ordinary
Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.

By virtue of the relationship
described herein, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under
the Act. In addition, as a result of the Shareholders Agreement, the Avista Funds may be deemed to be part of such a “group”
with the Altchem Entities with respect to the Company’s securities. Based on the disclosure in the Company’s Definitive
Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on April 25, 2022, (i) Orbit A-I may be deemed to beneficially own 1,182,243 Ordinary
Shares, which represents approximately 1.2% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3
under the Act, and (ii) Altchem Limited, as the holder of 22,485,297 Ordinary Shares and the manager of Orbit A-I, may be deemed
to beneficially own 23,667,540 Ordinary Shares, which represents approximately 23.9% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares calculated in
accordance with the requirements of Rule 13d-3 under the Act.
(b) The number of Ordinary
Shares as to which each of the Reporting Persons has sole or shared power to vote, direct the vote, dispose or direct the disposition
are as set forth in rows seven through ten of the cover pages hereof.
(c) Other than as set
forth in Item 4 herein, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Ordinary Shares during the past 60 days.
(d) No person other
than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds
from the sale of, the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings
or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Item 6 is amended to add the following paragraph
immediately following the fourth paragraph:
On August 4, 2022, the Company entered into a
Share Subscription Agreement (the “Share Subscription Agreement”) with AHP LP, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell
and issue to AHP LP, in a private placement, 8,000,000 Ordinary Shares at a per share price of $1.55 per Ordinary Share. The Share Subscription
Agreement also provides AHP LP with certain registration rights. This summary description does not purport to be complete, and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the Share Subscription Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Amendment No. 3 to the
Schedule 13D.
