JUNE 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Mondee Holdings, Inc., formerly known as ITHAX Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), was a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on October 2, 2020, and was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”).
Domestication and Mergers
As previously announced, ITHAX Acquisition Corp. (“ITHAX” and, after the Domestication as described below, “New Mondee” or the Company), a Cayman Islands exempted company, previously entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated as of December 20, 2021 (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among ITHAX, Ithax Merger Sub I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of ITHAX (“First Merger Sub”), Ithax Merger Sub II, LLC a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of ITHAX (“Second Merger Sub”) and Mondee Holdings II, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Mondee”).
On July 18, 2022, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into a waiver, pursuant to which they agreed to waive the following closing conditions under the Business Combination Agreement: (i) that the ITHAX Class A ordinary shares (as defined below) shall continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market as of the Closing Date (as defined below), given that the shares listed on the Nasdaq Global Market as of the Closing Date; and (ii) ITHAX is required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $150.0 million at the Closing Date (the “Minimum Cash Condition”).
On July 18, 2022, as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and described in the section titled “Domestication Proposal” beginning on page 183 of the final prospectus and definitive proxy statement, dated June 27, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and following approval by ITHAX’s shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on July 15, 2022, ITHAX filed a notice of deregistration with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, together with the necessary accompanying documents, and filed the Interim Charter (as defined below), the New Mondee Certificate of Incorporation (as defined below), and a certificate of corporate domestication with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, under which ITHAX was domesticated and continues as a Delaware corporation, changing its name to “Mondee Holdings, Inc.” (the “Domestication”).
As a result of and upon the effective time of the Domestication, among other things: (i) immediately prior to the PIPE Financing (as defined below), each issued and outstanding Class A ordinary share, par value $0.001 per share, of ITHAX (the “Class A ordinary shares”), converted into one share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New Mondee (the “New Mondee Common Stock”); (ii) upon the First Effective Time (as defined below), each issued and outstanding Class B ordinary share, par value $0.001 per share, of ITHAX (the “Class B ordinary shares”) converted into one share of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New Mondee (the “New Mondee Class B Common Stock”); (iii) pursuant to the Domestication, each issued and outstanding whole warrant representing the right to purchase Class A ordinary shares of ITHAX automatically converted into the right to purchase one share of New Mondee Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share on substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) and New Mondee, dated July 18, 2022 (the “Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement”); (iv) pursuant to the Domestication, the governing documents of ITHAX were replaced with the certificate of incorporation of New Mondee (the “Interim Charter”), and upon the First Effective Time, the Interim Charter was replaced with the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of New Mondee (f/k/a ITHAX Acquisition Corp.) (the “New Mondee Certificate of Incorporation”) and the bylaws of New Mondee (the “New Mondee Bylaws”) as described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus; and (v) pursuant to the First Effective Time, New Mondee’s name changed to “Mondee Holdings, Inc.” In connection with clauses (i) through (iii) of this paragraph, each issued and outstanding unit of ITHAX that had not been previously separated into the underlying Class A ordinary shares of ITHAX and the underlying warrants of ITHAX prior to the Domestication were cancelled and the holder thereof was entitled to receive one share of New Mondee Common Stock and
-half of one warrant, with each whole warrant representing the right to purchase one share of New Mondee Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement.5

(Unaudited)
On July 18, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), following the Domestication, First Merger Sub merged with and into Mondee, with Mondee surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Mondee (the “First Merger,” and the time at which the First Merger became effective, the “First Effective Time”), and immediately following the First Merger, Mondee merged with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Mondee (the “Second Merger,” together with the First Merger, the “Mergers,” and the time that the Second Merger became effective being referred to as the “Second Effective Time”).
In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, at the First Effective Time, (i) all shares of common stock of Mondee outstanding as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time were cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive an aggregate of 60,800,000 shares of New Mondee Common Stock (the “Merger Consideration”), (ii) all shares of common stock of Mondee held in treasury of Mondee and all shares of Mondee common stock owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Mondee immediately prior to the First Effective Time were cancelled without any conversion thereof, (iii) each issued and outstanding unit of First Merger Sub immediately prior to the First Effective Time were converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the first surviving company (the “First Surviving Company Common Stock”), (iv) pursuant to the New Mondee Certificate of Incorporation, each share of New Mondee Class B Common Stock was converted into one share (subject to adjustment) of New Mondee Common Stock and New Mondee changed its name to “Mondee Holdings, Inc.,” and (v) New Mondee and Continental entered into the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement.
In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, at the Second Effective Time, (a) each issued and outstanding share of First Surviving Company Common Stock was automatically cancelled and ceased to exist as of the Second Effective Time; and (b) each issued and outstanding unit of Second Merger Sub immediately prior to the Second Effective Time was automatically converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable interest of the second surviving company.
As a result of the Business Combination, all outstanding Units (as defined below) were cancelled and separated into one Class A ordinary share and
-half of one redeemable ITHAX warrant. Subsequently a total of 1,513,468 Class A ordinary shares were converted into 1,513,468 shares of New Mondee Common Stock, 5,433,750 Class B ordinary shares were converted into 5,433,750 shares of New Mondee Common Stock, and 12,412,500 redeemable ITHAX warrants representing the right to purchase one Class A ordinary share were adjusted to represent the right to purchase one share of New Mondee Common Stock.The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts and activities of only ITHAX, First Merger Sub, and Second Merger Sub, as of June 30, 2022, prior to the closing date.
Business Prior to the Business Combination
Prior to the Business Combination, ITHAX Acquisition Corp. had two wholly owned subsidiaries which were formed on December 9, 2021, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub. On the Closing Date, First Merger Sub merged with and into Mondee, with Mondee surviving the First Merger, and immediately following the First Merger, Mondee merged with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub surviving the Second Merger.
All activity for the period from October 2, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, identifying a target company for a Business Combination and consummating the acquisition of Mondee.
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering became effective on January 27, 2021. On February 1, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 24,150,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option in the amount of 3,150,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $241,500,000, which is described in Note 3.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 675,000 units (each, a “Private Placement Unit” and collectively, the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to ITHAX Acquisition Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”), generating gross proceeds of $6,750,000, which is described in Note 4.
Transaction costs amounted to $14,681,886, consisting of $5,250,000 of underwriting fees, $9,082,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $349,386 of other offering costs.
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 1, 2021, an amount of $241,500,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States and invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds held in the Trust Account.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is currently evaluating the impact of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have or could have had a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(Unaudited)
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 10, 2022. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements included in the aforementioned Form 10-K. The interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future periods.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statement with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these condensed consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities when the warrants are not publicly traded. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Cash and Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in mutual funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in the Trust Account are included in income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities held in Trust Account are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information. See Note 10 for the disposition of the Trust Account at the Closing Date.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the subsequent measurement of the initial book value to redemption amount. Subsequent measurement to the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares is due to income and unrealized gains or losses on the marketable securities held in the Trust Account. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

See Note 10 for the number of Class A ordinary shares redeemed on the Closing Date.
Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A - “Expenses of Offering.” Accordingly, offering costs totaling $14,681,886 (consisting of $5,250,000 in underwriters’ discount, $9,082,500 in deferred underwriters’ discount, and $349,386 of other offering expenses) have been allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering using a with-or-without method compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities of $675,351 have been expensed and presented as non-operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and offering costs of $14,006,535 associated with the Class A ordinary shares and Private Placement Units were initially charged to temporary equity and then subsequently measured to ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in February 2021.
Warrant Liabilities
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. There are no changes in this assessment as of June 30, 2022.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and are remeasured at each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the condensed consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s condensed consolidated financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for condensed consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
ITHAX was considered an exempted Cayman Islands company and was not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. ITHAX’s United States subsidiaries had no activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and has deemed any income tax obligations as of June 30, 2022 to be immaterial.

Net Income (Loss) per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Subsequent measurement of the redeemable shares of Class A ordinary shares is excluded from income (loss) per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
The calculation of diluted income (loss) per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the units issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The outstanding warrants are exercisable to purchase 12,412,500 Class A ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company, except for the 787,500 founder shares as of June 30, 2021 which are no longer forfeitable as of that date, and thus included for dilutive purposes.

Deferred Business Combination Fees Payable
At June 30, 2022, deferred business combination fees payable include $2,200,000 of legal expense, $395,535 of printing expense, and $4,437,446 of advisory and other transactional related expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination with Mondee. The total deferred business combination fees payable were accrued as of June 30, 2022, however payment of these fees was contingent upon the closing of the Business Combination, which occurred on July 18, 2022. These expenses are included in formation and operating costs in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statement of operations. At December 31, 2021, there were no deferred business combination fees payable.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except for warrant liabilities (see Note 9).

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 effective as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 24,150,000 Units, which includes a full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,150,000 Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of one Class A ordinary share and
-half of one contingently redeemable warrant (each, a “Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitled the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, and following the Closing Date now entitles the holder to purchase one share of New Mondee Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8).NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, including the exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, the Sponsor and Cantor purchased an aggregate of 675,000 Private Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,750,000, in a private placement. The Sponsor purchased 465,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor purchased 210,000 Private Placement Units. Each Private Placement Unit consisted of one Class A ordinary share (each, a “Private Placement Share” or, collectively, “Private Placement Shares”) and one-half of one contingently redeemable warrant (each, a “Private Placement Warrant,” together with the Public Warrants the “Warrants”). Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one non-redeemable share of New Mondee Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The Private Placement Shares are classified in permanent equity as they are non-redeemable. A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Units were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company had not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units would have been used to fund the redemption of all of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Placement Units and all underlying securities would have expired worthless.
NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
On October 6, 2020, the Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 to cover certain offering costs of the Company in consideration for 5,031,250 shares of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”). On October 16, 2020, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 20,000 Founder Shares to two members of the board of directors (each received 10,000 Founder Shares). On October 28, 2020, the Sponsor and a third member of the board of directors agreed that the director would pay the Sponsor $41,250 and in exchange the Sponsor would (i) on October 28, 2020, transfer 10,000 Founder Shares to such director and (ii) immediately following the Company’s Business Combination, transfer a total of 4% of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares then held by the Sponsor to the director, with such percentage including the 10,000 Founder Shares the director already held. On January 27, 2021, the Company effectuated a stock dividend of 0.2 shares for each share outstanding, resulting in an aggregate of 6,037,500 Founder Shares outstanding, which was retroactively reflected in the 2020 financial statements. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 787,500 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Founder Shares equal, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Placement Shares). As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, a total of 787,500 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share consolidations, share capitalizations, rights issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date following the completion of a Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
The sale or transfers of the Founders Shares to members of the Company’s the board of directors, as described above, is within the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The Founders Shares were effectively sold or transferred subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founders Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. A business combination is not probable until it is completed. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified) less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founders Shares.
Administrative Services Agreement
The Company entered into an agreement, commencing January 27, 2021 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial, and administrative support services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $60,000 in fees for these services, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $50,000 in fees for these services, respectively. Upon completion of the Business Combination, the Company ceased paying these monthly fees.
Promissory Note — Related Party
On October 6, 2020, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which the Company could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The then outstanding balance under the Promissory Note of $88,264 was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 1, 2021. Borrowings are no longer available under the Promissory Note.
NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Registration and Shareholder Rights
Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on January 27, 2021 (the “IPO Registration Rights Agreement”), the holders of the Founder Shares (and any Class A ordinary shares issued upon conversion of the Founder Shares), Private Placement Units (and the underlying securities), and units (and the underlying securities) that may be issued on conversion of Working Capital Loans will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register the offer and sale of such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register the resale of such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The IPO Registration Rights Agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. At the closing of the Business Combination, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, with the Sponsor, certain former stockholders of Mondee, and the other parties thereto, as further described below.

The deferred fee of $9,082,500 is payable to the underwriters at the closing of the Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Business Combination Agreement
As previously announced, ITHAX previously entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement. The total deferred business combination fees payable were accrued as of June 30, 2022, however payment of these fees was contingent upon the closing of the Business Combination, which occured on July 18, 2022. The Business Combination consummated on July 18, 2022 (see Note 1).
PIPE Investment
Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, ITHAX entered into Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) and accredited investors (together, the “Initial PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which the Initial PIPE Investors have agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and ITHAX has agreed to issue and sell to the Initial PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of New Mondee Common Stock at a price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000,000 (the “Initial PIPE Investment”). Subsequently, on April 21, 2022, ITHAX entered into a Subscription Agreement with an additional investor (the “Additional PIPE Investor” together with the Initial PIPE Investors the “PIPE Investors”) pursuant to which the Additional PIPE Investor agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and ITHAX has agreed to issue and sell to the Additional PIPE Investor, 2,000,000 shares of New Mondee Common Stock at a price of $10.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $20,000,000 (the “Additional PIPE Investment”). The aggregate gross proceeds to New Mondee from the Initial PIPE Investment and the Additional PIPE Investment of 7,000,000 shares (the “PIPE Shares”) equaled $70,000,000 (the “PIPE Financing”). The offer and sale of the shares of New Mondee Common Stock issued in the PIPE Financing pursuant to the Subscription Agreements have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. ITHAX granted the PIPE Investors certain registration rights in connection with the PIPE Financing. The PIPE Financing was consummated immediately prior to the First Effective Time.
Registration Rights Agreement
On July 18, 2022, New Mondee, the Sponsor, certain former stockholders of Mondee, and the other parties thereto entered into the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the parties thereto have been granted certain customary registration rights with respect to their respective shares of New Mondee Common Stock. An aggregate of 74,300,000 shares of New Mondee Common Stock are subject to resale registration rights. Such shares include (i) the 7,000,000 PIPE Shares; (ii) up to 60,800,000 Merger Consideration shares; and (iii) an aggregate of up to 6,500,000 Earn-Out Shares (as described below). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, New Mondee agreed that, within

In certain circumstances, the holders party to the Registration Rights Agreement can request to sell in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to a Shelf available at such time (an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”). The Sponsor may not demand more than one (1) Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the other Holders (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) may demand not more than two (2) Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. Both the Sponsor and the other Holders will be entitled to piggyback registration rights, in each case subject to certain limitations set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.Under the Registration Rights Agreement, New Mondee agreed to indemnify the holders against any losses or damages resulting from any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission of a material fact in any registration statement, prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof, pursuant to which the holders sell their equity securities, unless such liability arose from the holders’ misstatement or omission, and each of the holders, severally and individually, will agree to indemnify New Mondee against any losses or damages caused by such holder’s material misstatements or omissions in those documents.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of New Mondee Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the New Mondee Common Stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption is available.
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its best efforts to file, and within 60 business days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the offer and sale of the shares of New Mondee Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. A registration statement on Form S-1 was filed with the SEC for such purposes on July 22, 2022. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the offer and sale of the shares of New Mondee Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such New Mondee Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the offer and sale of the shares of New Mondee Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:
● | in whole and not in part; |
● | at a price of $0.01 per warrant; |
● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, or the redemption period, to each warrant holder; and |
● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share consolidations, share capitalizations, rights issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30- trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. |
If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may not exercise its redemption right if the issuance of shares upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or the Company is unable to effect such registration or qualification.
If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of New Mondee Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of New Mondee Common Stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of New Mondee Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other

than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.
Refer to Note 1 and Note 6 for the Public and Private Placement Warrants disposition at the Closing Date.
NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Private Placement Warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black Scholes model is a theoretical extension of binomial option pricing theory, in that consideration of discrete probabilities and option payoff outcomes are divided into smaller and smaller intervals. At the limit, the binomial process converges to the Black-Scholes formula, which indicates that a call option value is equal to the security price times a probability, minus the present value of the exercise times a probability. The probabilities are given by the cumulative normal distribution. The Public Warrants were initially valued using a Monte Carlo Model. The Monte Carlo method is an analysis method designed to determine the value of variables such as the expected value of the Warrants as of the valuation date. This value is fundamentally uncertain, and it is determined by what statisticians call estimators. The model estimates the

value of the Public Warrants after 100,000 trials based on the Company’s ordinary share price at the end of the Public Warrants’ expected life. The price estimates are based on a probability distribution of the price of the Company’s ordinary shares under a risk-neutral premise. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, which occurred on March 22, 2021, the Public Warrants were valued using the instrument’s publicly listed trading price on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC as of the balance sheet date, which is considered to be a Level 1 measurement due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market.
The inputs used in the Black-Scholes model for Private Placement Units and the Monte Carlo Model for Public Units is as follows:

The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement during the year ended December 31, 2021 was approximately $8.2 million.
NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than noted below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment to or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
On July 18, 2022, the Company completed its Business Combination with Mondee. Refer to Notes 1 and 6 for further detail. Holders of 23,311,532 ITHAX Class A ordinary shares exercised their right to have their shares redeemed for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.00 per share, totaling approximately $233,586,054. As a result, on the Closing Date, the Company received approximately $78.4 million in gross cash proceeds, consisting of approximately $8.4 million from the Company’s Trust Account and approximately $70 million from the PIPE Financing. Each redeemed ordinary share included its proportionate share of Trust Account earnings and none of the Trust Account earnings were used to pay taxes or any other expenses.

Overview
We were a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on October 2, 2020, and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”). We had two wholly owned subsidiaries, which were formed on December 9, 2021, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub.
On July 18, 2022, we completed our Business Combination with Mondee Holdings II, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Mondee”).
All activity from our formation through June 30, 2022 relates to our formation and our initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination and consummating the business combination with Mondee. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest.
Results of Operations
Our only activities since inception were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for an initial Business Combination and consummating the Business Combination with Mondee. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination, at the earliest. We generated non-operating income in the form of income on marketable securities held in a trust account, and recognize changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities as other income (loss). We incurred expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
21
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $4,855,254, which consists of $5,556,525 of expenses related to the Company’s Business Combination and other operational costs, offset by income earned on marketable securities held in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) of $328,896 and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $372,375.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $4,422,388, which consists of $7,861,949 of expenses related to the Company’s Business Combination and other operational costs, offset by income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $336,436 and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $3,103,125.
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net income of $1,965,357, which consists of income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $30,198 and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,110,125, offset by $20,060 of unrealized loss on marketable securities held in Trust Account and $154,906 of formation and operational costs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net income of $2,096,751, which consists of income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $49,114, unrealized gain on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $949 and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,979,000, offset by $675,351 of transaction costs and $256,961 of formation and operational costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On February 1, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 24,150,000 public units (the “Units”), including 3,150,000 Units issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. Each Unit consisted of one public share and one-half of one public warrant. The Units were sold at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $241,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 675,000 units (each, a “Private Placement Unit” and collectively, the “Private Placement Units”), comprised of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one contingently redeemable warrant, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., generating gross proceeds of $6,750,000.
Following the Initial Public Offering, the full exercise of the over-allotment option, and the sale of the Private Placement Units, a total of $241,500,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $14,681,886 in costs related to the Initial Public Offering, including $5,250,000 of underwriting fees, $9,082,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $349,386 of other offering costs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $368,501. Net loss of $4,422,388, was affected by income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $336,436 and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $3,103,125. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $7,493,448 of cash for operating activities, due primarily to increases in accrued expenses and deferred business combination fees payable.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash used in operating activities was $475,301. Net income of $2,096,751 was affected by change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,979,000, IPO transaction costs allocated to warrant liabilities of $675,351, income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $49,114, and an unrealized gain on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $949. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $218,340 of cash for operating activities.
As of June 30, 2022, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $241,937,059 consisting of mutual funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. We used substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account after redemptions, including any amounts representing income earned on the Trust Account, which was approximately $8.4 million to complete our Business Combination.
As of June 30, 2022, we had cash of $156,703. We used the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
22
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2022. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, secretarial and administrative support services. We began incurring these fees on January 27, 2021 and continued to incur these fees monthly until the completion of the Business Combination.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective, due solely to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company’s accounting for complex financial instruments.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
23
Management has identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for complex financial instruments. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to continue to enhance our system of evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our financial statements, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

In connection with the pending Business Combination, two purported stockholders have sent demand letters. No amount of damages is stated in the demand letters.
