As used in this Agreement, the following shall each be an “Event of Acceleration”: (A) the breach by Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings following the Closing of any operating covenant in Section 6.7; or (B) a Change of Control. A “Change of Control” means (x) the sale of more than 75% of the Equity Interests of Skypass Travel or substantially all of the assets of Skypass Travel to a third party; (y) the sale of more than 75% of the Equity Interests of any direct or indirect parent entity of Skypass Travel to a third party; and (z) the merger of Skypass Travel with or into a third party where the direct or indirect stockholders of Skypass prior to the merger or consolidation will not beneficially own, immediately after such merger or consolidation, at least 25% of the Equity Interest of Skypass Travel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction shall not constitute a “Change of Control” if its purpose is to (I) change the jurisdiction of Skypass Travel, or any of its direct or indirect
H:815039    18


parent entities, incorporation or formation, (II) create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the person who hold Skypass Travel, or any of its direct or indirect parent entities, securities immediately before the transaction, or (III) obtain funding for Skypass Travel or any direct or indirect parent entity. For the avoidance of doubt, following the issuance of the Earnout Rollover Shares in accordance with this Section 2.2(a)(viii) as the result of the occurrence of an Event of Acceleration, no addition Earnout Rollover Shares shall be issuable under this Agreement.
(b)Preliminary Purchase Price True-Ups and Estimates.
(i)The Sellers have delivered to Buyers, at the Closing, a statement (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) setting forth the Sellers’ good faith estimates of (A) the Closing Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”), and (B) the Closing Cash (the “Estimated Closing Cash”). The Sellers’ estimates set forth in the Preliminary Closing Statement shall be based upon and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and, for the avoidance of doubt, Buyers’ acceptance of the Preliminary Closing Statement for purposes of the Closing shall not limit or otherwise affect Buyers’ rights under Section 2.2(c) or Article 8.
(ii)If the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Target Net Working Capital, then the Purchase Price (and the Closing Purchase Price Payment) will be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such shortfall.
(iii)If the Estimated Closing Cash is less than the Target Cash, then the Purchase Price (and the Closing Purchase Price Payment) will be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such shortfall. If the Estimated Closing Cash is more than the Target Cash, then the Purchase Price (and the Closing Purchase Price Payment) will be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such excess. The Purchase Price will thereafter be subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 2.2(c).
(c)Post-Closing Purchase Price True-Ups.
(i)Calculation of Adjustment.
(A)If the Final Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Target Net Working Capital, the Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.2(b)(ii)–(iii)) will be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such excess; provided, however, if the Final Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital (and the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital was less than the Target Net Working Capital), the Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.2(b)(ii)–(iii)) will instead be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such excess. If the Final Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, the Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.2(b)(ii)–(iii)) will be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such shortfall.
(B)If the Final Closing Cash is greater than the Estimated Closing Cash, the Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.2(b)(ii)–(iii)) will be increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such excess. If the Final Closing Cash is less than the Estimated Closing Cash, the Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.2(b)(ii)–(iii)) will be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such shortfall.
(C)The amount of any decrease to the Purchase Price, determined pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(i), shall be paid by the Sellers (in accordance
H:815039    19


with their Pro Rata Percentages) to Buyers, in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentage, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Buyers. The amount of any increase to the Purchase Price, determined pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(i), shall be satisfied by Holdings issuing to the Sellers, in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the amount of such increase divided by the Rollover Share Value.
(D)Any amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) will be paid within five Business Days after the Final Closing Statement is agreed to by the Sellers and Buyers or determined by the Neutral Auditor in accordance with this Section 2.2(c).
(E)If a Seller fails to make any payment required by this Section 2.2(c), (I) without any further action by Buyers, such Seller shall automatically forfeit all of such Sellers’ rights, title and interest in and with respect to a number of Rollover Shares equal to the amount of such payment divided by the Rollover Share Value, and Mondee shall be deemed the owner of such Rollover Shares for all purposes, and Mondee agrees to provide such Seller with written notice thereof promptly after any such forfeiture and (II) Holdings may withhold and set off any such amounts against the Rollover Shares otherwise required to be issued to the Sellers under this Agreement, including the Deferred Rollover Shares and the Earnout Rollover Shares. Any transferee of Rollover Shares shall agree to be bound by and subject to the terms of this Section 2.2(c)(i)(E).
(ii)Within six months following the Closing Date, Buyers will prepare and deliver to the Sellers a statement (the “Closing Statement”) reflecting (A) Buyers’ calculation of (1) the Closing Net Working Capital and (2) the Closing Cash and (B) based on such calculations, Buyers’ calculation of the Purchase Price.
(iii)After receipt of the Closing Statement, the Sellers shall have 30 days to review it. To the extent reasonably required to complete the Sellers’ review of the Closing Statement, the Sellers and their Representatives (in each case, subject to the execution of a customary confidentiality agreement) shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records of the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries as may be reasonably required for such review. The Sellers shall deliver notice to Buyers on or prior to the 30th day after receipt of the Closing Statement specifying in reasonable detail any disputed items and a summary of the basis therefor. If the Sellers fail to deliver such notice in such 30-day period, the Sellers shall have waived their right to contest the Closing Statement. If the Sellers notify Buyers of any objections to the Closing Statement in such 30-day period, the Sellers and Buyers shall, within 30 days following the date of such notice of objections (the “Resolution Period”), attempt to resolve their differences and any written resolution by them as to any disputed amount will be final and binding for purposes of this Section 2.2.
(iv)If, at the conclusion of the Resolution Period, the Sellers and Buyers have not reached an agreement in respect of the Sellers’ objections to the Closing Statement, then all amounts and issues remaining in dispute will be submitted by the Sellers and Buyers to a mutually acceptable independent nationally or regionally recognized accounting firm (the “Neutral Auditor”), who shall be considered an arbitrator for purposes under this Agreement, for a determination resolving such amounts and issues. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Neutral Auditor will be borne by the Buyers and the Sellers (in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages), respectively, in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the disputed items submitted to the Neutral Auditor by Buyers or the Sellers that are unsuccessfully disputed by such party (as finally determined by the Neutral Auditor) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of disputed items submitted by Buyers and
H:815039    20


the Sellers. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by Buyers and the Sellers in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Neutral Auditor will be borne by the party incurring such cost and expense. The Neutral Auditor shall determine only those issues still in dispute at the end of the Resolution Period, and the Neutral Auditor’s determination will be based upon and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, that the determination by the Neutral Auditor will be based solely on presentations with respect to such disputed items by Buyers and the Sellers to the Neutral Auditor and not on the Neutral Auditor’s independent review. Buyers and the Sellers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to make their respective presentations as promptly as practicable following submission to the Neutral Auditor of the disputed items (but in no event later than 15 days after engagement of the Neutral Auditor), and each of Buyers and the Sellers will be entitled, as part of its presentation, to respond to the presentation of the other and any questions and requests of the Neutral Auditor. In deciding any matter, the Neutral Auditor (i) will be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.2(c)(iv) and (ii) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Buyers or the Sellers or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by Buyers or the Sellers.
(v)The Neutral Auditor shall be instructed to make its determination within 45 days after its engagement (which engagement will be made no later than five Business Days after the end of the Resolution Period), or as soon thereafter as possible, will be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Sellers and Buyers and will be final, conclusive, non-appealable and binding for purposes of this Section 2.2; provided, that such determination may be reviewed, corrected or set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction, but only upon a finding that the Neutral Auditor committed manifest error with respect to its determination. The term “Final Closing Statement” means the definitive Closing Statement agreed to by the Sellers and Buyers in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(iii) or the definitive Closing Statement resulting from the determination made by the Neutral Auditor in accordance with this Section 2.2(c)(v).
(vi)For purposes hereof, “Final Closing Net Working Capital” means the Closing Net Working Capital as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.2 and “Final Closing Cash” means the Closing Cash as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.2.
2.3.Withholding. The Buyers and their Affiliates (including Holdings) and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement and/or the other Transaction Documents such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable provision of Law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity by the Buyers and their Affiliates (including Holdings), such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement and/or the other Transaction Documents as having been paid to the Person to which such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

Each Seller further agrees to take all reasonable and appropriate steps (and to cause each of such Seller’s Affiliates to take all appropriate steps) to safeguard such Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. In the event any Seller or any Affiliate of such Seller is required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information, such Seller and the Affiliates of such Seller shall promptly notify Buyers in writing, which notification shall include the nature of the Law and the extent of the required disclosure, and such Seller shall cooperate with Buyers and their Affiliates to preserve the confidentiality of such information consistent with applicable Law.
6.4.Tax Matters.
(a)Tax Returns.
(i)Buyers shall cause each Transferred Company and its Subsidiaries to prepare and timely file all Tax Returns due after the Closing Date (the “Buyer Prepared Returns”). To the extent that a Buyer Prepared Return relates solely to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or includes any pre-Closing portion of a Straddle Period, such Tax Return shall be prepared on a basis consistent with existing procedures and practices unless otherwise required by applicable Law. Each Buyer Prepared Return that is an income Tax Return or that shows an Indemnified Tax (other than Tax Returns relating to payroll or other employment Taxes) shall be submitted to the Sellers for the Sellers’ review and comment at least 15 days prior to the due date of the Tax Return if such Tax Return is an income Tax Return and a reasonable amount of time prior to the filing deadline if such Tax Return is not an income Tax Return. Buyers shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments made by the Sellers. No failure or delay of Buyers in providing Buyer Prepared Returns for the Sellers to review shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligations or liabilities of the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent they are actually prejudiced by such failure or delay.
(ii)The parties agree that all indemnification payments under this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all relevant Tax purposes. Unless otherwise required by Law, none of the Sellers or Buyers shall take any position (and Buyers shall not allow any Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries to take any position) during the course of any audit or other Proceeding with respect to any Taxes or Tax Returns (whether or not a Tax Contest) that is inconsistent with any election, position or agreement provided for in Section 6.4(a)(ii).
(b)Apportionment of Taxes. For purposes of determining the amount of Taxes that relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date), the parties agree as follows:
(i)In the case of property Taxes and other similar Taxes imposed on a periodic basis, the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined by multiplying the Taxes for the entire Straddle Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period.
(ii)In the case of Taxes in the form of interest or penalties, all such Taxes shall be treated as attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or the portion of the Straddle
H:815039    47


Period ending on the Closing Date) to the extent relating to a Tax for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date) whether such items are incurred, accrued, assessed or similarly charged on, before or after the Closing Date.
(iii)In the case of all other Taxes (including income Taxes, employment Taxes, and sales and use Taxes) the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined as if the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes for the portion of the Straddle Period ending as of the end of the day on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books” methodology. For purposes of this clause (iii), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions and the effects of graduated rates) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date based on the mechanics set forth in clause (i) for periodic Taxes.
(c)Cooperation. Each Seller shall (i) assist in the preparation and timely filing of any Tax Return of the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries; (ii) assist in any audit or other Proceeding with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries (whether or not a Tax Contest); (iii) make available any information, records or other documents in such Seller’s possession or control relating to any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries; (iv) provide any information necessary or reasonably requested by Buyers to allow Buyers and the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries to comply with any information reporting or withholding requirements contained in the Code or other applicable Laws or to compute the amount of payroll or other employment Taxes due with respect to any payment made in connection with this Agreement; and (v) provide certificates or forms, and timely execute any Tax Returns, that are necessary or appropriate to establish an exemption for (or reduction in) any Transfer Tax.
(d)Tax Contests.
(i)If any Governmental Entity issues to any Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries (A) a written notice of its intent to audit or conduct another Proceeding with respect to Taxes of such Transferred Company or such Subsidiary for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or (B) a written notice of deficiency for Taxes for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, Buyers shall notify the Sellers of its receipt of such communication from such Governmental Entity as soon as reasonably practicable and, in any event, within 30 days of receipt. No failure or delay of Buyers in the performance of the foregoing shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligations or liabilities of the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent they are actually prejudiced by such failure or delay.
(ii)The Buyers shall control any audit or other Proceeding in respect of any Tax Return or Taxes of the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries (a “Tax Contest”); provided, however, that (A) the Sellers, at their sole cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Contest to the extent it relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, and (B) Buyers shall not allow the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries to settle or otherwise resolve any Tax Contest if such settlement or other resolution relates to Taxes for a Pre-Closing Tax Period without the consent of the Sellers (which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned).
(iii)To the extent there is a conflict between this Section 6.4 and Section 8.4, the provisions of this Section 6.4 shall control.
(e)Transfer Taxes. Buyers and Sellers will each bear 50% of all applicable federal, state, local and non-U.S. transfer, excise, sales, use, ad valorem, value added, registration, stamp, recording, property and similar Taxes or fees applicable to, imposed upon or

arising out of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement and all related interest and penalties, including all costs and stamp duties associated with the actions contemplated by Schedule 2.2(a)(iii) (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”).
(f)Refunds and Tax Benefits. Any Income Tax refunds that are received by Buyers or any Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries and any amounts credited against Income Tax to which Buyers or any Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries become entitled, that relate to Income Tax periods or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing Date shall be for the account of the Sellers, and Buyers shall pay over to the Sellers any such refund or the amount of any such credit within 15 days after such receipt or entitlement thereto net of (i) any Taxes (including any Taxes that would be imposed on a distribution of any portion of such refund to the Buyers) and (ii) any reasonable expenses that the Buyers, the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates incur (or has or will incur) with respect to such refund (and related interest). Nothing in this Section 6.4(f) shall require that the Buyers make any payment with respect to any refund for a Tax (and such refunds shall be for the benefit of the Buyers and the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries) that is with respect to (A) any refund of Tax that is the result of the carrying back of any net operating loss or other Tax attribute or Tax credit incurred in any taxable period (or portion of any Straddle Period) beginning on or after the day immediately following the Closing Date; (B) any refund of Tax paid after the Closing Date to the extent the Sellers have not indemnified the Buyers or the Transferred Companies and their Subsidiaries for such Taxes; (C) any refund for Tax that is reflected as a current asset (or offset to a current liability) on the Final Closing Net Working Capital; or (D) any refund for Tax that gives rise to a payment obligation by any Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries to any Person under applicable Law or pursuant to a provision of a contract or other agreement entered (or assumed) by any Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries on or prior to the Closing Date.
(g)Amended Returns. Following Closing, no Transferred Company or Subsidiary of a Transferred Company shall file any amended Tax Return or other filing with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Period or any pre-Closing portion of the Straddle Period to the extent such Tax Return would material negatively impact a Seller’s Tax liability without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonable conditioned, withheld, or delayed, provided, however, that no such written consent shall be required if such filing is required to comply with applicable Law.

If an indemnification claim hereunder relates to a third party claim made against the Indemnified Party, notice of such third party claim shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party promptly (but in any event within 15 days after written notice of such third party claim shall have been given to the Indemnified Party by such third party). Failure to give prompt notice pursuant to this Section 8.4(a) shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder in the absence of material prejudice thereto (in which case the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations shall only be reduced to the extent of such material prejudice).
(b)Following receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of a claim, the Indemnifying Party will have 30 days during which to make such investigation of the claim as the Indemnifying Party shall deem necessary or desirable. For the purposes of such investigation, the Indemnified Party agrees to make available to the Indemnifying Party and/or the Indemnifying Party’s authorized Representative(s) the information relied upon by the Indemnified Party to substantiate the claim (except to the extent such information is privileged). If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree at or prior to the expiration of said 30-day period (or any agreed upon extension thereof) to the validity and amount of such claim, or if
H:815039    54


the Indemnifying Party does not respond to such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall immediately pay to the Indemnified Party the full amount of the claim in accordance with Section 8.4(f). In the event the parties are unable to agree, either party may bring a Proceeding to resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 9.9.
(c)With respect to any claim by a third party for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in or, if the Indemnifying Party so elects, to assume control of the defense of such claim through counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party by providing written notice within 30 days following notice from the Indemnified Party acknowledging the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party, subject to reimbursement for reasonable and documented actual out-of-pocket expense incurred by the Indemnified Party as the result of a request by the Indemnifying Party to so cooperate; provided, that the Indemnifying Party will not be entitled to control, and the Indemnified Party will be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of any claim if (i) such claim involves a criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (ii) a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party exists other than ordinary conflicts that arise under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (iii) such claim involves any customers of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, (iv) the Indemnifying Party has not agreed and acknowledged in writing (for the benefit of the Indemnified Party) its unqualified obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party as provided hereunder with respect to such claim, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 8, (vi) such claim seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or (vii) upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim.

The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned), settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any such claim or demand on a basis which would result in the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree which would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or if such settlement or compromise does not include an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party for any liability arising out of such claim or demand or any related claim or demand.
(d)If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume control or otherwise participate in the defense of any third-party claim within 30 days following notice from the Indemnified Party (or such earlier date, if the failure to assume the defense on such earlier date would materially impair the ability of the Indemnified Party to defend such claim), the Indemnified Party will (upon delivering written notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim (all at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party), and the Indemnifying Party will be bound by the results obtained in good faith by the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim. The Indemnified Party will not settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any such claim or demand on a basis which would result in the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree which would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnifying Party without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(e)If any Buyer Group Member is entitled to recourse directly against any Seller pursuant to this Article 8 and is not able to recover the full amount of any such claim from such Seller, Buyers shall have the right to demand from such Seller the satisfaction of such claim through the delivery to Holdings of a number of Rollover Shares held by such Seller having an aggregate Rollover Share Value equal to the amount that such Buyer Group Member was unable

Mondee Acquires Leading Travel Marketplace, Skypass, a leading Travel Marketplace, bringing AI to SMEs

Mondee Continues its Accretive M&A Strategy, Strengthening its Global Position as the Foremost AI-Powered Marketplace for Travel Content and Experiences.

AUSTIN, Texas - Mondee Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOND) (“Mondee” or the “Company”), the high-growth, travel technology company and marketplace, with a portfolio of globally recognized platforms in the leisure and corporate travel sectors, today announced the acquisition of Skypass Travel, Inc. (“Skypass”), a global full-service retail and wholesale provider of corporate, leisure, and humanitarian travel, based in the Dallas, Texas area.

The acquisition of Skypass supports Mondee's ongoing expansion and diversification endeavors, encompassing markets that serve both personnel and affiliates from international corporations, small and midsize businesses (SMBs), as well as humanitarian organizations. Skypass maintains domestic offices in the Dallas, Texas area and Austin, Texas. Furthermore, it boasts a global footprint through its international offices located in Latin America (LATAM), Mexico, Canada, and India.

Skypass achieved a gross revenue of $45 million and adjusted EBITDA of $4 million, representing a margin on net revenue of approximately 60%, in 2022. At closing, Mondee paid a consideration of approximately $15 million, comprised of cash and Mondee common stock priced at $10 per share. Additionally, the agreement allows for a potential future earn-out opportunity of shares of Mondee common stock, contingent upon the achievement of specified annual adjusted EBITDA growth targets.

With a 35-year operating history, Skypass enjoys a leading position in the international corporate travel sector. Its focus is directed toward providing travel services to sizable international consulting firms and SMBs. In addition to air travel and lodging, Skypass extends its services to encompass cruises, vacation packages, and humanitarian travel, catering to the personnel, associates, and the wider retail travel demographic.

Following the successful acquisitions of Consolid, Orinter and Interep, Mondee is poised to strategically advance the distribution of Skypass's travel-related offerings. Skypass’s expansion may be facilitated through Mondee’s extensive network, which comprises over 65,000 travel experts and a membership of 125 million individuals within closed groups. Furthermore, the acquisition increases Mondee’s reach of local, regional and global content.
Mondee's strategic approach involves harnessing its exclusive AI-Powered Travel Marketplace and cutting-edge technology. Simultaneously, the Company intends to introduce enhancements in services that may target Skypass’s clientele and generate additional revenue, including FinTech solutions and supplementary services. Moreover, Mondee is committed to streamlining expenditures across its global operational framework, with the aim of realizing substantial synergies in both top-line and bottom-line performance.



Mondee’s Founder, Chairman, and CEO, Prasad Gundumogula, stated, “We are thrilled to extend a warm welcome to Victor Abraham, CEO of Skypass, and his experienced management team as valued members of the Mondee family and look forward to helping provide their customers with access to our AI-Powered Travel Marketplace, as well as additional products and services.

Non-GAAP Measurements:

In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables include adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP as they have been adjusted to exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expenses, provision for income taxes, and the impacts of depreciation and amortization. Mondee defines adjusted EBITDA as net loss before depreciation and amortization, provision for income taxes, interest expense (net), other income net, stock-based compensation, and gain on forgiveness of PPP loans. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is defined as net loss before the impacts of amortization of intangibles, provision for income taxes, stock-based compensation, and one-time items. Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share is defined as non-GAAP net



income (loss) on a per share basis. See "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a discussion of the applicable weighted-average shares outstanding.

Mondee believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and other users of its financial information consistency and comparability with its past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations. With respect to adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net loss/ income, Mondee believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s profitability relative to the amount of revenue generated, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and other one-time expenses. Mondee also believes non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating its operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry, as these metrics eliminate the effects of stock-based compensation, which may vary for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.

Mondee uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with traditional GAAP measures as part of its overall assessment of the Company’s performance, including the preparation of its annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, and to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies. Mondee’s definition may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish this or similar metrics. Thus, Mondee’s non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, nor superior to or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

These non-GAAP financial measures may be limited in their usefulness because they do not present the full economic effect of Mondee’s use of stock-based compensation. The Company’s compensates for these limitations by providing investors and other users of its financial information a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely related GAAP financial measures. However, Mondee has have not reconciled the non-GAAP guidance measures disclosed under "Financial Outlook" to their corresponding GAAP measures because certain reconciling items such as stock-based compensation and the corresponding provision for income taxes depend on factors such as the stock price at the time of award of future grants and thus cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations to the non-GAAP guidance measures are not available without unreasonable effort. Mondee encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure and to view non-GAAP net loss/ income and non-GAAP net loss/ income per share in conjunction with net loss and net loss per share.

Operating Metrics:

This press release also includes certain operating metrics that we believe are useful in providing additional information in assessing the overall performance of Mondee’s business.

Transactions are defined as the aggregation of transactions handled by Mondee’s platform between a third-party seller or service provider and the ultimate consumer. A single transaction could include an airline ticket, a hotel or hospitality



accommodation, and any number of ancillaries offered on the platform. Mondee generates revenue from service fees earned on these transactions and, accordingly its revenue increases or decreases based on the increase or decrease in either or both the number or value of transactions Mondee processes. Revenue will increase as a result of an increase in the number of customers using Mondee’s platform and/or as a result of an increase in service fees from higher value services offered on the platform.
