Mondee Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOND) (“Mondee” or the “Company”), a
leading travel marketplace and artificial intelligence (AI)
technology company, announced today that it obtained a $15 million
letter of credit from Morgan Stanley, which was a condition to the
Company’s previously announced long-term maturity date extensions
to its term loan and preferred equity. Consequently, the maturity
date for Mondee's term loan is extended to June 30, 2028, and the
put option date for Mondee's preferred equity is extended to
December 31, 2028.
In addition to these long-term extensions, the
$15 million letter of credit unlocks an additional $5 million in
net proceeds to the Company from the term loan, resulting in at
least $20 million of working capital available to fuel the
Company’s strong growth.
“We are excited to announce today this important
milestone, which not only provides a long-term extension to our
term loan, but also fortifies our balance sheet with additional
working capital, empowering Mondee to sustain and accelerate its
strong growth trajectory,” said Founder, Chairman, and CEO, Prasad
Gundumogula.
