Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on January 14, 2025, Mondee Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and certain of its US subsidiaries (such subsidiaries being Mondee Holdings II, LLC, Mondee, Inc., Mondee Brazil, LLC, Cosmopolitan Travel Service, Inc., Cosmopolitan Travel Services Inc., C & H Travel & Tours, Inc., SkyLink Travel, Inc., SkyLink Travel, Inc., SkyLink Travel Inc., Skylink Travel SFO Inc., Purple Grids Inc., Trans Am Travel, Inc., TransWorld Travel, Inc., Hari-World Travel Group, Inc., ExploreTrip IP Holdings, Inc., ExploreTrip, Inc., Mondee Acquisition Company, Inc., Rocketrip, Inc., Skypass Travel, Inc., and Skypass Holidays LLC (such subsidiaries together with the Company, the “Company Parties”)), filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (such court, the “Court” and such cases, the “Cases”).

Additional information about the Cases, including access to Court documents, is available online at https://cases.ra.kroll.com/mondee, a website administered by the Company’s claims agent, Kroll Restructuring Administration LLC. The documents and other information on this website are not part of this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Form 8-K”) and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference herein.

As previously disclosed, on January 14, 2025, the Company entered into that certain term sheet (the “Stalking Horse Term Sheet”) with an affiliate of the DIP Lenders1 (other than Wingspire and its affiliates) and the Prepetition Lenders (other than Wingspire and its affiliates) (the “Purchaser”) to sell substantially all of the assets of the Company (the “Purchased Assets”). Following entry into the Stalking Horse Term Sheet, the parties agreed to memorialize the terms of the sale in an asset purchase agreement.

1 All capitalized terms used in this Form 8-K and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning given

to such terms in that certain Asset Purchase Agreement.

On February 18, 2025, the Company entered into a “stalking horse” asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with the Purchaser to sell the Purchased Assets. The aggregate consideration for the Purchased Assets shall consist of: (i) a credit bid of the full amount of the DIP Obligations, including all principal, fees, penalties and other obligations thereunder that are outstanding as of the Closing, other than the Assumed Obligations, plus (ii) a credit bid of an amount of Pre-Petition Obligations until such time as the DIP Obligations referred to in clause (i) plus the Pre-Petition Obligations in this clause (ii) plus the Assumed Obligations equals $191,000,000; (b) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Assumed Obligations; and (c) the Excluded Cash. The transaction is part of a sale process under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code that will be subject to approval by the Court and compliance with agreed upon and Court-approved bidding procedures allowing for the submission of higher or otherwise better offers, and other agreed-upon conditions. In accordance with the sale process under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, notice of the proposed sale to Purchaser will be given to third parties and competing bids will be solicited. The Company will manage the bidding process and evaluate the bids, in consultation with its advisors and as overseen by the Court.

The Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties and is subject to a number of closing conditions, including, among others, (i) the accuracy of representations and warranties of the parties; (ii) material compliance with the obligations of the parties set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, including achievement of certain milestones by the Company related to the Cases and the sales process on a timely basis; (iii) the DIP Documents remaining in full force and effect and no Event of Default (as defined in the DIP Documents) occurring that materially impairs Purchaser’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement; and (iv) no Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) having occurred from the date of the Asset Purchase Agreement to the Closing Date.

The Asset Purchase Agreement may be terminated, subject to certain exceptions: (i) by the mutual written consent of the parties; (ii) automatically if the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to an alternative transaction for the Purchased Assets or the Court approves an alternative transaction for the Purchased Assets; (iii) by Purchaser if (a) the DIP Financing Agreement is terminated or any DIP Order is modified in any material respect without the consent of the Requisite DIP Lenders (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement), (b) 20% or more of the Post-Petition Payables incurred in the ordinary course of business remain outstanding and unpaid for a period greater than 30 days, (c) Purchaser, for any reason, is not permitted by the Court to credit bid the DIP Loans and/or the Pre-Petition Loans in payment of all or any portion of the Credit Bid, (d) the actual Cure Costs exceed the Cure Costs Cap, unless Purchaser agrees in its sole discretion, to pay a higher amount of Cure Costs, (e) the Restructuring Support Agreement has been terminated or upon the occurrence of a Termination Event (as defined in the Restructuring Agreement) under the Restructuring Support Agreement, (f) the Seller Disclosure Schedule is not timely delivered in accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement; (iv) by the Company if the Company’s board of directors decides in good faith that proceeding with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement would be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties under applicable Law or would violate applicable Law; or (v) by either party, (a) for certain material breaches by the other party of its representations and warranties or obligations that remain uncured, (b) if any governmental entity enacts or issues a law or order or takes other action permanently restraining, prohibiting or enjoining any of the parties from consummating the transactions, or (c) if the closing has not occurred prior to the date that is 65 days after the Petition Date (the “End Date”; provided, that Purchaser may extend the End Date from time to time to a date no later than May 1, 2025.

The foregoing description of the Asset Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Asset Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein. The representations and warranties contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement were made only for the purposes of the Asset Purchase Agreement and solely for the benefit of the parties thereto. Those representations and warranties may be subject to important limitations and qualifications agreed to by the contracting parties. Some of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any particular date because they are subject to contractual standards of materiality different from that generally applicable to public disclosures to stockholders. Furthermore, the representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to such contract or other document instead of establishing these matters as facts, and they may or may not have been accurate as of any specific date and do not purport to be accurate as of the date of this Form 8-K. Accordingly, you should not rely upon the representations and warranties in the Asset Purchase Agreement as statements of factual information.

Cautionary Note Regarding the Company’s Class A Common Stock

The Company cautions that trading in its Class A common stock during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company’s Class A common stock may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders of the Company’s Class A common stock in the Chapter 11 Cases. In particular, the Company expects that holders of its Class A common stock will experience a significant or complete loss on their investment.
