(A) Services Agreements
In July 2016, the Company entered into a services agreement with RSI, effective April 29, 2016, under which RSI agreed to provide certain administrative and R&D services to the Company. Under this services agreement, the Company pays or reimburses RSI for expenses it, or third parties acting on its behalf, incurs for the Company. For any general and administrative, or G&A, and R&D activities performed by RSI employees, RSI charges the Company based upon the relative percentage of time utilized on Company matters by the respective employee. All other third-party pass-through costs are billed to the Company at cost. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include third-party expenses incurred on behalf of the Company that have been paid by RSI and RSL.
In February 2017, the Company and MSI amended and restated the services agreement, effective as of November 11, 2016, to include Myovant Sciences GmbH, or MSG, as a services recipient. In addition, in February 2017, MSG entered into a separate services agreement with RSG, effective as of November 11, 2016, for the provisioning of services by RSG to MSG in relation to services related to clinical development, administrative and finance and accounting activities. The Company refers to the amended and restated services agreement with RSI and the services agreement with RSG, collectively, as the Services Agreements.
Under the Services Agreements, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred expenses (inclusive of third party pass-through costs billed to the Company) of $0.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively, inclusive of the mark-up. The Company has replaced substantially all of the services previously provided by RSI and RSG with its own internally developed capabilities or external professional service providers.
(B) Share-Based Compensation Expense Allocated to the Company by RSL
Share-based compensation expense has been and will continue to be allocated to the Company by RSL over the requisite service period over which RSL common share awards and RSL options are expected to vest and based upon the relative percentage of time utilized by RSL, RSI and RSG employees on Company matters.
In relation to the RSL common share awards and options issued by RSL to RSL, RSI, RSG, and the Company’s employees, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

As discussed in Note 8(A), the Company completed an underwritten public equity offering of its common shares on June 4, 2019. RSL purchased 2,424,242 common shares in this offering at the same price offered to the public of $8.25 per common share, for a total purchase price of $20.0 million.
(E) Information Sharing and Cooperation Agreement with RSL
In July 2016, the Company entered into an information sharing and cooperation agreement, or the Cooperation Agreement, with RSL. The Cooperation Agreement, among other things: (1) obligates the Company to deliver periodic financial statements and other financial information to RSL and to comply with other specified financial reporting requirements; and (2) requires the Company to supply certain material information to RSL to assist it in preparing any future SEC filings. On May 24, 2019, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Cooperation Agreement, pursuant to which RSL has agreed, in connection with each of the Company’s next three public offerings of its common shares, that RSL will (1) provide to the Company and the underwriter(s) engaged by the Company in connection with such public offering an indication of interest for RSL to participate as a purchaser in such public offerings, and (2) enter into a customary lock-up agreement with the underwriters in connection with such public offerings.
Subject to specified exceptions, the Cooperation Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of the mutual written consent of the parties or when RSL is no longer required by U.S. GAAP to consolidate the Company’s results of operations and financial position, account for its investment in the Company under the equity method of accounting or, by any rule of the SEC, include the Company’s separate financial statements in any filings it may make with the SEC.
(F) Fourth Amended and Restated Bye-Laws
On May 23, 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved, and the holder of a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares approved by written consent, an amendment and restatement of the Company’s bye-laws, to be the Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Bye-Laws, which amends the Company’s bye-laws (1) to establish procedures for the appointment of a majority of the directors on the Company’s board by RSL at any time that RSL holds less than 50.0% but more than or equal to 35.0% of the aggregate voting rights attached to the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares, and (2) to remove the procedures and requirements of voting rights of such shares that are treated as controlled shares of a U.S. Person whose controlled shares constitute nine and one-half percent (9.5%) or more of the voting power of all of the Company’s issued common shares. The Fourth Amended and Restated Bye-Laws became effective on June 26, 2019.
