Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

On October 11, 2016, Venus Concept Ltd., a predecessor of the Company, entered into a credit agreement as a guarantor with Health Partners LP, as administrative agent, and the Funds as lenders (as amended, restated supplemented or modified, the "Credit Agreement"), pursuant to which the Funds agreed to make certain loans to certain of Venus Concept Ltd.'s subsidiaries. On November 7, 2019, in connection with the merger between Restoration Robotics, Inc. and Venus Concept Ltd. (the "Merger"), the Company joined the Credit Agreement as a guarantor. Prior to the Merger, the Reporting Persons acquired beneficial ownership in a series of financing transactions of certain equity and equity-linked securities of Venus Concept Ltd which, upon consummation of the Merger, automatically converted into equity securities of the Company. All of the Common Stock held directly by the Funds were acquired from the Company, or its predecessor Venus Concept Ltd., by or on behalf of the Funds using the investment capital of the Funds. The aggregate purchase price of the Common Stock held directly by the Funds was approximately $15,475,268 (excluding brokerage commissions and transaction costs). In connection with the Credit Agreement, Venus Concept Ltd. issued three types of 10-year warrants (collectively, the "Warrants"). At the effective time of the Merger, each of the outstanding Warrants, whether or not vested, to purchase ordinary shares or preferred shares, as applicable, of Venus Concept Ltd., that was unexercised immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was converted into a warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, the Warrants are exercisable into 1,091 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1,447.875 per share, at any time on or prior to expiration on December 1, 2026. On December 9, 2020, the Funds acquired $26,695,110.54 aggregate principal amount of the Company's the secured subordinated convertible notes (the "2020 Convertible Notes") pursuant to a Securities Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement (the "2020 Exchange Agreement"), dated as of December 8, 2020, pursuant to which the Company repaid $42,500,000 aggregate principal amount owed under the Credit Agreement and issued the 2020 Convertible Notes to the Funds. On October 4, 2023, the Funds entered into an Exchange Agreement (the "2023 Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which the Funds exchanged the 2020 Convertible Notes for (i) $22,791,748.32 aggregate principal amount of the Company's secured subordinated convertible notes (the "2023 Convertible Notes") and (ii) 248,755 shares of the Company's Series X Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series X Preferred Stock"). The conversion rate of the 2023 Convertible Notes was 3.7878788 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2023 Convertible Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of $264.00 per share of Common Stock. The conversion rate was subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. Each share of Series X Preferred Stock is convertible into 0.91 shares of Common Stock at any time at the option of the holder. From the date of issuance until December 31, 2026, each share of Series X Preferred Stock accrues a dividend at a rate of 12.5% per annum. Such dividend is payable on a quarterly basis in cash or additional shares of Series X Preferred Stock, at the Company's election. On May 24, 2024, the Funds entered into an Exchange Agreement (the "May 2024 Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which the Funds exchanged $35,000,000 of senior indebtedness under that certain Loan and Security Agreement (Main Street Priority Loan), dated December 8, 2020, originally between City National Bank of Florida, as lender, and Venus Concept USA Inc., as borrower (as amended or modified from time to time, the "MSLP Loan Agreement") for 576,986 shares of the Company's Series Y Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series Y Preferred Stock"). On September 26, 2024, the Funds entered into an Exchange Agreement (the "September 2024 Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which the Funds exchanged $15,000,000 of senior indebtedness under the MSLP Loan Agreement for 203,583 shares of Series Y Preferred Stock. On March 31, 2025, the Funds entered into an Exchange Agreement (the "2025 Exchange Agreement") pursuant to which the Funds exchanged the 2023 Convertible Notes for (i) $17,015,808.33 aggregate principal amount of the Company's secured subordinated convertible notes (the "2025 Convertible Notes") and (ii) 379,311 shares of Series Y Preferred Stock. The initial conversion rate of the 2025 Convertible Notes is 3.7878788 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of $264 per share of Common Stock. The conversion rate will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. The shares of Series Y Preferred Stock issued under the May 2024 Exchange Agreement, September 2024 Exchange Agreement and 2025 Exchange Agreement were priced at $60.66, $73.68 and $29.00 per share, respectively (the "Issuance Price"). Each share of Series Y Preferred Stock is convertible into 9.0909 shares of Common Stock (i) at any time at the option of the holder or (ii) automatically upon the Company completing an equity financing for Common Stock that raises no less than $30,000,000, among other requirements. Each share of Series Y Preferred Stock carries a liquidation preference in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Issuance Price, multiplied by (ii) 2.0, which liquidation preference is senior to all other classes of outstanding capital stock. Such liquidation preference is subject to customary adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, combination or similar recapitalization with respect to the Common Stock. On June 25, 2025, the Company's shareholders approved the issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the 2025 Convertible Notes, Series X Preferred Stock and Series Y Preferred Stock which had previously been subject to limitations on convertibility imposed by the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

The information set forth in Items 3 and 6 of this Statement is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 4. The Reporting Persons acquired the securities reported herein for investment purposes. In their capacity as a significant stockholder of the Company, the Reporting Persons have taken and intend to continue to take an active role in working with the Company's management and the board of directors on operational, financial and strategic initiatives, including in connection with the evaluation by the Company's board of directors of potential strategic alternatives as disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 24, 2024. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investments in the Company on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors, including but not limited to the Company's financial position and strategic direction, price levels of the Common Stock, conditions in the securities markets, compliance with applicable listing standards, various laws and regulations applicable to the Company and companies in its industry and the Reporting Persons' ownership in the Company and position as lender to the Company, and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take actions with respect to their investment in the Company as they deem appropriate, including changing their current intentions, with respect to any or all matters required to be disclosed in this Statement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, acquire or cause affiliates to acquire additional shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company (including any combination or derivative thereof), dispose, or cause affiliates to dispose, of some or all of their Common Stock or other securities of the Company or continue to hold, or cause affiliates to hold, Common Stock or other securities of the Company. In addition, without limitation, the Reporting Persons have engaged and intend to continue engaging in discussions with management or the board of directors of the Company about its business, operations, strategy, plans and prospects. In addition, without limitation, the Reporting Persons have engaged and intend to continue engaging in discussions with management, the board of directors of the Company, stockholders or other securityholders of or lenders to the Company and other relevant parties or take other actions concerning the offering and sale of securities by the Company or other financing transactions by the Company, any extraordinary corporate transaction (including, but not limited to, a merger, reorganization, recapitalization or liquidation), a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets, a change in the board of directors or management, a material change in the capitalization or dividend policies, other material changes in the Company's business or corporate structure, changes in the Company's charter, bylaws or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control, de-listing or de-registration of the Issuer, or similar actions. On April 23, 2024, the Funds purchased the entire outstanding principal amount of the indebtedness outstanding under the MSLP Loan Agreement (the "MSLP Loan") from the City National Bank of Florida. On May 3, 2024, the Reporting Persons delivered a nonbinding transaction proposal (the "Proposal") to the Company concerning a proposed restructuring of the Company's current debt and equity capital structure. Pursuant to the Proposal, the Reporting Persons would exchange a portion of the MSLP Loan and/or other debt instruments held by the Reporting Persons for Common Stock, in addition to entering into a new senior secured credit facility as a part of a comprehensive restructuring of the Company's outstanding debt. As a result of the transactions contemplated by the Proposal, the Reporting Persons and their affiliates would become the majority owners of the Company's common stock on a fully diluted basis. The Proposal was unilateral and non-binding and, once structured and agreed upon, would be conditioned on, among other things, the negotiation and execution of definitive documentation setting forth the terms of a transaction between the Company and the Reporting Persons, as well as the Company successfully completing an equity financing and obtaining requisite stockholder consents. There can be no assurance that a definitive agreement with respect to the Proposal will be executed or, if executed, whether the transaction will be consummated. The Reporting Persons may, directly or indirectly, take such additional steps as they may deem appropriate to further the Proposal. The foregoing does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Proposal filed as an exhibit hereto and incorporated by reference herein. The Company and the Reporting Persons have engaged and intend to continue to engage in discussions relating to the implementation of the transactions contemplated by the Proposal and alternatives to such transactions. While the Reporting Persons have engaged in discussions with the Company to agree the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Proposal and alternatives to such transactions, there is no certainty as to the outcome of such discussions, or as to the timing for execution of any definitive agreement. As of the date hereof, no agreement has been reached nor has any definitive documentation been entered into by the Company and the Reporting Persons with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Proposal or alternatives to such transactions. On May 24, 2024, September 26, 2024 and March 31, 2025, the Company and the Reporting Persons entered into the May 2024 Exchange Agreement, September 2024 Exchange Agreement and 2025 Exchange Agreement, respectively, pursuant to which the Funds exchanged a portion of the MSLP Loan or the 2023 Convertible Notes, as applicable, for Series Y Preferred Stock. On June 25, 2025, the Company's shareholders approved the issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the 2025 Convertible Notes, Series X Preferred Stock and Series Y Preferred Stock which had previously been subject to limitations on convertibility imposed by the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)

The Reporting Persons beneficially own in the aggregate 10,891,951 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 85.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
