Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
On July 15, 2022, ITHAX Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company
("ITHAX" and, following the consummation of the Domestication (as defined
below), "New Mondee"), convened an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders
(the "Extraordinary General Meeting") held in connection with ITHAX's previously
announced business combination with Mondee Holdings II, Inc. ("Mondee"), Ithax
Merger Sub I, LLC ("First Merger Sub") and Ithax Merger Sub II, LLC ("Second
Merger Sub") pursuant to that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated
December 20, 2021 (the "Business Combination Agreement") and the transactions
contemplated thereby (such transactions, the "Business Combination").
Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the Business
Combination will be effected through ITHAX's domestication to Delaware (the
"Domestication"), followed by the merger of First Merger Sub with and into
Mondee, with Mondee surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New
Mondee (the "First Merger", and the time at which the First Merger becomes
effective, the "First Effective Time"), followed by a second merger, whereby
Mondee will merge with and into the Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub
surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of New Mondee (the "Second
Merger", and the time at which the Second Merger becomes effective, the "Second
Effective Time").
In connection with the Business Combination, (i) each issued and outstanding
Class A ordinary share, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class A ordinary
shares"), of ITHAX will be converted into one share of Class A common stock, par
value $0.001 per share, of New Mondee (the "New Mondee Common Stock") and each
issued and outstanding Class B ordinary share, par value $0.001 per share (the
"Class B ordinary shares"), of ITHAX will be converted into one share of Class B
common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of New Mondee (the "New Mondee Class B
Common Stock"), pursuant to the Domestication (ii) upon the First Effective
Time, each issued and outstanding share of New Mondee Class B Common Stock will
be converted into one share (subject to adjustment) of New Mondee Common Stock;
(iii) pursuant to the Domestication, each issued and outstanding whole warrant
representing the right to purchase one Class A ordinary share of ITHAX will
automatically convert into the right to purchase one share of New Mondee Common
Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share on substantially the same terms
and conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement between
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, ITHAX's warrant agent, and New
Mondee, to be dated the date of Closing (as defined below) of the Business
Combination (the "Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement"); (iv) pursuant to the
Domestication, the governing documents of ITHAX will be replaced with the
certificate of incorporation of New Mondee (the "Interim Charter"), and upon the
First Effective Time, the Interim Charter shall be replaced with the proposed
amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the new bylaws of New
Mondee (the "Proposed Governing Documents"); and (v) upon the First Effective
Time, New Mondee's name will change to "Mondee Holdings, Inc." In connection
with clauses (i) through (iii) of this paragraph, each issued and outstanding
unit of ITHAX that has not been previously separated into the underlying Class A
ordinary shares of ITHAX and the underlying warrants of ITHAX prior to the
Domestication will be cancelled and will entitle the holder thereof to one share
of New Mondee Common Stock and one-half of one warrant, with each whole warrant
representing the right to purchase one share of New Mondee Common Stock at an
exercise price of $11.50 per share, on the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement.
Each proposal voted on at the Extraordinary General Meeting is described in
detail in ITHAX's definitive proxy statement /prospectus filed with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission on June 27, 2022, and mailed to shareholders
on or about June 27, 2022.
As of the close of business of May 13, 2022, the record date for the
Extraordinary General Meeting, there were an aggregate of 24,825,000 Class A
ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share, and 6,037,500 Class B ordinary
shares, par value $0.001 per share (together, the "Ordinary Shares"),
outstanding. Under the terms of ITHAX's existing amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association (the "Existing Governing Documents"), only the
holders of the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to vote on the election of
directors to the board of directors of ITHAX. Therefore, only holders of the
Class B ordinary shares were entitled to one vote per Class B ordinary share on
the Director Election Proposal (as defined below) at the Extraordinary General
Meeting. Holders of both the Class B ordinary shares and the Class A ordinary
shares were entitled to one vote per Ordinary Share on all other proposals.
Holders of a total of 23,186,607 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately
75.13% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares entitled to vote, were present in
person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting, constituting a quorum.
The voting results for the proposals voted on at the Extraordinary General
Meeting are set forth below:
1. The Business Combination Proposal - To approve ITHAX's entry into (1) the
