NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

​

ITHAX Acquisition Corp.is 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”).

ITHAX Acquisition Corp. has two wholly owned subsidiaries which were formed on December 9, 2021, ITHAX Merger Sub I, LLC (“Merger Sub I”), a Delaware limited liability company, and ITHAX Merger Sub II, LLC (“Merger Sub II”), a Delaware limited liability company. ITHAX Acquisition Corp. and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as “the Company”.

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of completing a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from October 2, 2020 (inception) through March 31, 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 proceeding to complete the Business Combination, which is described in Note 6. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the marketable securities held in the Trust Account (as defined below) and recognizes changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities as other income (loss).

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.

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, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete an initial Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding deferred underwriting commissions and interest income earned on the Trust Account to pay taxes) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

​

The Company will provide the holders of its issued and outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (initially $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares. The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, it receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company. If a shareholder vote is not required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transactions is required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote any Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5), Private Placement Shares (as defined in Note 4) and Public Shares held by it in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have agreed to waive: (i) their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of the Company’s Business Combination and (ii) their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination by February 1, 2023 or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity.

The Company will have until February 1, 2023 to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

​

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of the Company’s officers or directors acquires Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per-share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.00 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses and other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. As of March 31, 2022, no interest has been withdrawn from the Trust Account.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have 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.

Going Concern Assessment

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $230,529 not held in the Trust Account and available for working capital purposes. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had working capital of $184,367. The Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business for one year from this filing. However, if the estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to a Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing or draw on the Working Capital Loans (as defined below) either to complete a Business Combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of the Public Shares upon consummation of a Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination because it does not have sufficient funds available, the Company will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, the Company may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” the date for mandatory liquidation and dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through February 1, 2023, (the scheduled liquidation date of the Company if it does not complete a Business Combination prior to such date). Management’s plan to alleviate the substantial doubt is to complete a business combination prior to February 1, 2023. The Company entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement on December 20, 2021 (as defined below in Note 6) and is in the process of completing this Business Combination. Management has assessed the likelihood of whether it will be able to carry out its plan to complete this business combination prior to February 1, 2023. Management believes, as it is contractual, the business combination will occur prior to the termination date set forth in the Business Combination Agreement of July 3, 2022, which is before the date of the mandatory liquidation date. As such, based on these factors and other considerations, Management believes that its plan alleviates the substantial doubt raised by the date for mandatory liquidation described above.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

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 months ended March 31, 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. 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 March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Cash and Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account

At March 31, 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 interest 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.

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 March 31, 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 interest 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 March 31, 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:

​

​

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.

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 March 31, 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 March 31, 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 Acquisition Corp. is considered an exempted Cayman Islands Company and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. The Company’s United States subsidiaries had no activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the Company has deemed any income tax obligations 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 March 31, 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 March 31, 2021 which are no longer forfeitable as of that date, and thus included for dilutive purposes.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income per ordinary share (in dollars, except share amounts):

​

​

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).

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 consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one contingently redeemable warrant (each, a “Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share 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 consists 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 whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one non-redeemable Class A ordinary share 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 does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Placement Units and all underlying securities will expire 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. As of March 31, 2022, the Company determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable until the business combination is completed, and therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized.

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 months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $20,000 in fees for these services, respectively.

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.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans may be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Unis. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Through the filing of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has not borrowed any amounts under the Working Capital Loans.

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.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of (i) 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the initial 21,000,000 Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, or $7,350,000, and (ii) 6% of the gross proceeds from the Units sold pursuant to the over-allotment option, or up to $1,732,500. The deferred fee of $9,082,500 will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Business Combination Agreement

On December 20, 2021, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Mondee Holdings II, Inc., Delaware corporation and a travel technology company (“Mondee”). The Business Combination Agreement was entered into by and among ITHAX Acquisition Corp., Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and Mondee. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Company will become a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and the parties will enter into a business combination transaction (together with the Domestication, the “Business Combination”) by which (i) Merger Sub I will merge with and into Mondee, with Mondee being the surviving entity in the merger (the “First Merger”), and (ii) immediately following the First Merger, Mondee will merge with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II being the surviving entity in the merger (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers” and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Transactions” and the closing of the Transactions, the “Closing”). As a result of the Domestication (i) each outstanding Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class A Shares”) will be automatically converted into one share of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of Ithax Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“New Mondee”) and each outstanding Class B ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class B Shares”) will be automatically converted into one share of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”), of New Mondee, and (ii) pursuant to an amended and restated warrant agreement, each outstanding warrant of the Company will be replaced by a redeemable warrant of New Mondee, with substantially the same terms, exercisable for a share of Class A Common Stock. In connection with the Closing, New Mondee will amend and restate its certificate of incorporation, which will, among other things, convert each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock into one share of Class A Common Stock and change the name of the post-Closing company to “Mondee Holdings, Inc.”. The Company filed its Form S-4 with the SEC on March 21, 2022. The Company filed Amendment No 1 to Form S-4 on April 26, 2022. The Company intends to consummates its Business Combination upon the SEC declaring the S-4 effective.

Registration Rights Agreement

The Business Combination Agreement contemplates that, at the Closing, the Company, the Sponsor, Mondee and the sole stockholder of Mondee (the “Sole Stockholder”) and the other parties thereto will enter into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which Ithax will agree to register for resale certain shares of its Class A Common Stock that are held by the parties thereto from time to time.

​

Additionally and pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the holders of any shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Lock-Up Shares”) issued to the Sponsor prior to the Closing or to the Sole Stockholder in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, or to the Members (as defined below) in connection with the Earn-out Agreement (as defined below), may not transfer any Lock-Up Shares during the period beginning on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is the earlier of (A) six months after the Closing, (B) the date on which the closing price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 90 calendar days following the Closing and (C) the date on which the Company consummates a sale, merger, liquidation, exchange offer or other similar transaction after the Closing, which results in the stockholders immediately prior to such transaction having beneficial ownership of less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the combined company.

Subscription Agreements

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”) entered into subscription agreements (the “PIPE Subscription Agreements”) pursuant to which the PIPE Investors have committed to purchase in a private placement 5,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “PIPE Shares”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $50,000,000 million (the “PIPE Investment”). The purchase of the PIPE Shares is conditioned upon, among other things, the consummation of the Transactions and will be consummated concurrently with the Closing. The PIPE Shares to be issued pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements have not been registered under the Securities Act, and will be issued in reliance on the availability of an exemption from such registration. The PIPE Subscription Agreements further provide that the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement to register the resale of the PIPE Shares within 30 calendar days after the Closing. It is expected that the PIPE Investors will be parties to the Registration Rights Agreement.

On April 21, 2022, the Company entered into a PIPE Subscription Agreement with an additional investor (the “Additional Investor”), whereby the Additional Investor has committed to purchase in a private placement 2,000,000 shares of New Mondee Common Stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Additional Shares”) and an aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000 million (the “Additional Investment”) bringing the total amount of commitments from both the PIPE Investment and the Additional Investment to $70.0 million. The Additional Investment will be consummated substantially concurrently with the Closing. The Additional Investor entered into a PIPE Subscription Agreement on substantially the same terms as those of the PIPE Investors, but also agreed not to sell or otherwise transfer any of the Additional Shares during the period beginning on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is the earlier of (A) six months after the Closing, (B) the date on which the closing price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 90 calendar days following the Closing and (C) the date on which New Mondee consummates a sale, merger, liquidation, exchange offer or other similar transaction after the Closing, which results in the stockholders immediately prior to such transaction having beneficial ownership of less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the combined company. In addition, at the Closing, the Additional Investor will enter into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which the Additional Investor will be entitled to certain registration rights in respect of the Additional Shares. The Additional Shares to be issued pursuant to the Additional Investment have not been registered under the Securities Act and will be issued in reliance on the availability of an exemption from such registration.

Holders of Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 6,037,500 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, except as required by law; provided that only holders of Class B ordinary shares have the right to vote on the appointment of directors prior to the Company’s initial Business Combination.

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustments.

NOTE 8. WARRANTS

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 12,075,000 Public Warrants and 337,500 Private Placement Warrants outstanding.

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares 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 Class A ordinary shares 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 Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. 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 Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such Class A ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the offer and sale of the Class A ordinary shares 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:

Table of Contents

ITHAX ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

mARCH 31, 2022

(Unaudited)

​

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 Class A ordinary shares 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 Class A ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of such initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

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 Class A ordinary shares 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.

​

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 March 31, 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.

Overview

We are 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. We have two wholly owned subsidiaries, which were formed on December 9, 2021, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II.

We are not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of completing a Business Combination. We are an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of March 31, 2022, we had not commenced any operations. All activity from our formation through March 31, 2022 relates to our formation and our Initial Public Offering, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the marketable securities held in the trust account and recognizes changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities as other income (loss).

We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the private placement units, the proceeds of the sale of our securities pursuant to the Subscription Agreements we entered into with PIPE Investors and Additional Investor (defined below) in connection with our initial Business Combination, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

We expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.

Recent Developments

On December 20, 2021 we entered into the business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, and Mondee Holdings II, Inc., Delaware corporation (“Mondee”).. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, ITHAX will become a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and the parties will enter into a business combination transaction (together with the Domestication, the “Business Combination”) by which (i) Merger Sub I will merge with and into Mondee, with Mondee surviving the First Merger, and (ii) immediately following the First Merger, Mondee will merge with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II surviving the Second Merger. As used in this Quarterly Report, “New Mondee” refers to the Company after given effect to the consummation of the Domestication.

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”) entered into the subscription agreements (the “PIPE Subscription Agreements”) with the Company, pursuant to which the PIPE Investors committed to purchase in a private placement 5,000,000 shares of New Mondee Class A common stock (the “PIPE Shares”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $50,000,000. The purchase of the PIPE Shares is conditioned upon, among other things, the consummation of the Business Combination and will be consummated concurrently with the Closing.

On April 21, 2022, we entered into a PIPE Subscription Agreement with an “accredited investor” (the “Additional Investor”), whereby the Additional Investor has committed to purchase in a private placement 2,000,000 shares of New Mondee Class A common stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Additional Shares”) and an aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000 (the “Additional Investment”) bringing the total amount of commitments from both the PIPE Investment and the Additional Investment to $70,000,000. The Additional Investment will be consummated substantially concurrently with the Closing. The additional investor entered into a PIPE Subscription Agreement on substantially the same terms as those of the PIPE Investors, but also agreed not to sell or otherwise transfer any of the Additional Shares during the period beginning on the date of Closing and ending on the date that is the earlier of (A) six months after the Closing, (B) the date on which the closing price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 90 calendar days following the Closing and (C) the date on which New Mondee consummates a sale, merger, liquidation, exchange offer or other similar transaction after the Closing, which results in the stockholders immediately prior to such transaction having beneficial ownership of less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the combined company. In addition, at the Closing, the Additional Investor will enter into a registration rights agreement by and among New Mondee and certain other parties there to (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Additional Investor will be entitled to certain registration rights in respect of the Additional Shares.

The PIPE Shares and Additional Shares to be issued pursuant to the PIPE Investment and Additional Investment have not been registered under the Securities Act and will be issued in reliance on the availability of an exemption from such registration.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception have been 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. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in a trust account, and recognize changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities as other income (loss). We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had a net income of $432,866, which consists of interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $7,540 and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,730,750, partially offset by $2,118,238 of expenses related to Company’s pending Business Combination and $187,186 of other operational costs.

Table of Contents

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had a net income of $131,394, which consists of interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $18,916, unrealized gain on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $21,009, and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $868,875, partially offset by formation and operational costs of $102,055, and transaction costs allocated to warrant liabilities of $675,351.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On February 1, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 24,150,000 public units, including 3,150,000 public units issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. Each public unit consists of one public share and one-half of one public warrant. The public units were sold at $10.00 per public unit, generating gross proceeds of $241,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 675,000 private placement units, comprised of one private placement share and one-half of one redeemable private placement warrant, at a price of $10.00 per private placement unit in a private placement to the Sponsor and Cantor, 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 three months ended March 31, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $294,675. Net income of $432,866, was affected by change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,730,750 and interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $7,540. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $2,010,749 of cash for operating activities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, cash used in operating activities was $390,698. Net income of $131,394 was affected by change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $868,875, transaction costs allocated to warrant liabilities of $675,351, interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $18,916, and an unrealized gain on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $21,009. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $288,643 of cash for operating activities.

As of March 31, 2022, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $241,608,163 consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of March 31, 2022, we had cash of $230,529. We intend to use 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.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit, at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. Through the date of this filing, we have not made any borrowings under this arrangement.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business for one year from this filing. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial

Table of Contents

Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing or draw on loans provided to us by our Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of a Business Combination. If we are unable to complete the Business Combination because it does not have sufficient funds available, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” the date for mandatory liquidation and dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through February 1, 2023, (the scheduled liquidation date of the Company if it does not complete a Business Combination prior to such date). Management’s plan to alleviate the substantial doubt is to complete a business combination prior to February 1, 2023. The Company entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement on December 20, 2021 and is in the process of completing this Business Combination. Management has assessed the likelihood of whether it will be able to carry out its plan to complete this business combination prior to February 1, 2023. Management believes, as it is contractual, the business combination will occur prior to the termination date set forth in the Business Combination Agreement of July 3, 2022, which is before the date of the mandatory liquidation date. As such, based on these factors and other considerations, Management believes that its plan alleviates the substantial doubt raised by the date for mandatory liquidation described above.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 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 will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination and our liquidation.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of (i) 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the initial 21,000,000 public units sold in the Initial Public Offering, or $7,350,000, and (ii) 6% of the gross proceeds from the public units sold pursuant to the over-allotment option, or $1,732,500. The deferred fee of $9,082,500 will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the trust account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Vendor Agreements

On October 4, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. for placement agency services in connection with the PIPE and customary capital market advisement services related to the pending Business Combination. The agreement calls for the vendor to receive a contingent fee equal to 7% of the gross proceeds of securities sold in the PIPE placement and capped at $3,500,000.

On October 4, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with AXIA Capital Markets LLC for fund-raising services in connection with the PIPE and capital markets advisory services related to the pending Business Combination. The agreement calls for the vendor to receive a contingent fee equal to $500,000, plus 3.5% of the gross proceeds of securities sold in the PIPE placement exceeding $50,000,000 and capped at $1,500,000.

Table of Contents

On December 15, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. for capital market advisement services related to the Business Combination Agreement. The agreement calls for the vendor to receive a contingent fee in the amount of $1,000,000 upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

On January 24, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with a D.A. Davidson & Co. for capital markets advisory services related to the pending Business Combination Agreement. The agreement calls for the vendor to receive a contingent fee in the amount of $500,000 upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

On February 1, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with a Northland Securities, Inc. for capital markets advisory services related to the pending Business Combination Agreement. The agreement calls for the vendor to receive a contingent fee in the amount of $625,000 upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a vendor for an insurance policy, which the vendor will only receive insurance run-off premium in the amount of approximately $1,100,000 upon the consummation of the Business Combination. As of March 31, 2022, approximately $33,000 is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company incurred legal fees of approximately $1,941,000 which is included in deferred legal fees in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. These fees will only become due and payable upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Warrant Liabilities

We account for the warrants issued in connection with our Initial Public Offering in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815 under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, we classify the warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjust the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statements of operations. The private placement warrants and the public warrants, for periods where no observable traded price was available, are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the Monte Carlo Model, respectively. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the public warrants from the public units, on March 22, 2021, the public warrant quoted market price on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC was used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, all ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share

We comply 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 during 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.

Table of Contents

​

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 March 31, 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 in March 31, 2021 which are no longer forfeitable and thus included for dilutive purposes.

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 March 31, 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.

​

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

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In connection with the pending Business Combination, one purported stockholder has sent a demand letter. No amount of damages is stated in the demand letter. The Company believes that the threatened lawsuit is without merit and, if filed, the Company intends to defend the matters vigorously. The Company is currently unable to reasonably determine the outcome of any potential litigation or estimate any potential losses, and, as such, have not recorded a loss contingency. There is no other material litigation, arbitration or governmental proceedings currently pending against the Company or any members of its management team in their capacity as such.
