On December 27, 2019, the Company’s former controlling shareholder, Roivant Sciences Ltd. (“Roivant”), completed a transaction (the “Sumitomo-Roivant Transaction”) in which all of the Company’s outstanding common shares held directly or indirectly by Roivant and not already held by Sumitovant were transferred to Sumitovant, and Roivant transferred all of the outstanding equity of Sumitovant to Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma, resulting in Sumitovant directly, and Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma indirectly, owning 45,008,604, or approximately 50.2%, of the Company’s outstanding common shares on December 27, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, Sumitovant directly, and Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma indirectly, own 48,641,181, or approximately 54.0%, of the Company’s outstanding common shares.
Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement
On December 27, 2019, the Company and its subsidiary, Myovant Sciences GmbH (“MSG”), entered into a Loan Agreement with Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma (the “Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement”). Pursuant to the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement, Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma agreed to make revolving loans to the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $400.0 million. On December 30, 2019, the Company borrowed an initial amount of $113.7 million under the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement, the proceeds of which were used to repay all outstanding obligations of the Company to NovaQuest Capital Management and Hercules Capital, Inc. and to satisfy certain other fees and expenses. Additional funds may be drawn down by the Company once per calendar quarter, subject to certain terms and conditions, including consent of the Company’s board of directors. In addition, if Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma fails to own at least a majority of the Company’s outstanding common shares, it may become unlawful under Japanese law for Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma to fund loans to the Company, in which case the Company would not be able to continue to borrow under the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement. Interest is due and payable quarterly, and the outstanding principal amounts are due and payable in full on the five-year anniversary of the closing date of the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement. Loans under the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement are prepayable at any time without premium or penalty upon 10 business days’ prior written notice.
Loans under the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 3-month LIBOR plus a margin of 3% payable on the last day of each calendar quarter. The Company’s obligations under the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiaries. The loans and other obligations are senior unsecured obligations of the Company, MSG, and subsidiary guarantees. The Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement includes customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants.
The Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement also includes customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, breaches of covenants following any applicable cure period, cross acceleration to certain other debt, failure to pay certain final judgments, certain events relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, failure of material provisions of the loan documents to remain in full force and effect or any contest thereto by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and certain breaches by the Company under the Investor Rights Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, a default interest rate of an additional 5.0% will apply to the outstanding principal amount of the loans, Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma may terminate its obligations to make loans to the Company and declare the principal amount of loans to become immediately due and payable, and Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma may take such other actions as set forth in the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement. Upon the occurrence of certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, the obligations of Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma to make loans to the Company would automatically terminate and the principal amount of the loans would automatically become due and payable. In addition, if it becomes unlawful for Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma to maintain the loans under the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement or within 30 days of a change of control with respect to the Company, the Company would be required to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans.
As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding loan balance of $193.7 million is classified as a long-term liability on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets under the caption long-term debt, less current maturities (related party). As of June 30, 2020, approximately $206.3 million of borrowing capacity remains available to the Company, subject to the terms of the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement. Interest expense under the Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Loan Agreement was $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and is included in interest expense (related party) in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. There was no interest expense (related party) for the three months ended June 30, 2019. On August 5, 2020, the Company obtained an incremental $200.0 million low-interest, five-year term loan commitment from Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma (see Note 12).

On December 27, 2019, the Company entered into an Investor Rights Agreement with Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma and Sumitovant (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, among other things, the Company agreed, at the request of Sumitovant, to register for sale, under the Securities Act of 1933, common shares beneficially owned by Sumitovant, subject to specified conditions and limitations. In addition, the Company agreed to periodically provide Sumitovant (i) certain financial statements, projections, capitalization summaries and other information and (ii) access to the Company’s books, records, facilities and employees during the Company’s normal business hours as Sumitovant may reasonably request, subject to specified limitations.
The Investor Rights Agreement also contains certain protections for the Company’s minority shareholders for so long as Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma or certain of its affiliates beneficially owns more than 50% of the Company’s common shares. These protections include: (i) a requirement that Sumitovant vote its shares for the election of independent directors in accordance with the recommendation of the Company’s board of directors (the “board”) or in the same proportion as the
shareholders not affiliated with Sumitovant vote their shares; (ii) a requirement that the audit committee of the Company’s board be composed solely of three independent directors; (iii) a requirement that any transaction proposed by Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma or certain of its affiliates that would increase Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma’s beneficial ownership to over 60% of the outstanding voting power of the Company must be approved by the Company’s audit committee (if occurring prior to December 27, 2022), and be conditioned on the approval of shareholders not affiliated with Sumitovant approving the transaction by a majority of the common shares held by such shareholders; and a requirement that any related person transactions between Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma or certain of its affiliates and the Company must be approved by the Company’s audit committee.
Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Company also agreed that at all times that Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma beneficially owns more than 50% of the Company’s common shares, Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma, by purchasing common shares in the open market or from the Company in certain specified circumstances, will have the right to maintain its percentage ownership in the Company’s common shares in the event of a financing event or acquisition event conducted by the Company, or specified other events, subject to specific conditions.
