Item 8.01.  Other Events.

 

On March 9, 2016, Travelport Worldwide Limited (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (the “Underwriter”) and certain selling shareholders named therein (the “Selling Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Selling Shareholders agreed to sell 10,604,740 shares of the Company’s common shares, par value $0.0025 per share (the “Common Shares”) to the Underwriter at a price of $13.36 per share (the “Offering”).

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants of the Company and the Selling Shareholders and also provides for customary indemnification by each of the Company, the Selling Shareholders, and the Underwriter against certain liabilities and customary contribution provisions in respect of those liabilities.

 

These representations and warranties of the parties contained in the Underwriting Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of the other party to the Underwriting Agreement and:

 

·should not be treated as categorical statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate;

 

·may have been qualified in the Underwriting Agreement by disclosures that were made to the other party in connection with the negotiation of the Underwriting Agreement;

 

·may apply contract standards of “materiality” that are different from “materiality” under the applicable securities laws; and

 

·were made only as of the date of the Underwriting Agreement or such other date or dates as may be specified in the Underwriting Agreement.

 

The sale of the Common Shares by the Selling Shareholders was made pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3ASR (Registration No. 333-207803), including a final prospectus supplement dated March 9, 2016 to the prospectus contained therein dated November 4, 2015, filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

The sale of the Common Shares closed on March 15, 2016.

 

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

On March 9, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing the launch of the Offering. A copy of the press release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

On March 15, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Offering. A copy of the press release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
