Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously announced, on April 21, 2020, MICT, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MICT” or the “Company”), entered into a series of Note Purchase Agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain investors identified therein (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which, among other things, the Purchasers agreed, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to purchase from the Company certain convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of approximately $11.0 million. On July 8, 2020, the Company entered into a series of additional Purchase Agreements with certain Purchasers pursuant to which such Purchasers agreed to purchase from the Company Convertible Notes with an aggregate principal amount of approximately $4.0 million. As of the date hereof, the Company has entered into Purchase Agreements to sell Convertible Notes with an aggregate principal amount of approximately $15 million (collectively, the “Convertible Note Offering”).

 

The Convertible Notes shall be convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $1.10 per share (the “Conversion Shares”). The Convertible Notes will generally be due two years from the date of issuance, except that certain convertible notes will be due five years from the date of issuance. The Company is obligated to pay interest to the Purchasers on the outstanding principal amount at the rate of 1.0% per annum, payable on each conversion date, in cash or, at the Company’s option, in shares of common stock. Subject to approval of the Company’s stockholders, the Convertible Notes shall be convertible into shares of common stock. Upon the occurrence of certain events, the Purchasers are permitted to require the Company to redeem the Convertible Notes, including any interest that has accrued thereunder, for cash.

  

The Purchase Agreements provide for customary registration rights, pursuant to which the Company will be obligated to, among other things, (i) file a registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”) with the SEC within 180 days following the closing of the Convertible Note Offering for purposes of registering the Conversion Shares and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable after filing.

 

The securities sold in the Convertible Note Offering shall be issued in reliance on an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

 

The foregoing description of the Convertible Note Offering is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Purchase Agreement and the Form of Convertible Note (the “Convertible Note Transaction Documents”), copies of which were filed as exhibits 10.1 and 4.1, respectively, to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2020. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Convertible Note Transaction Documents were made only for purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Convertible Note Transaction Documents, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Accordingly, the Convertible Note Transaction Documents are incorporated herein by reference only to provide information regarding the terms of the Convertible Note Transaction Documents, and not to provide any other factual information regarding the Company or its business, and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures in the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the SEC.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

 

The Acquisition

 

On July 1, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of GFH Intermediate Holdings Ltd., a British Virgin Islands company (“Intermediate”), pursuant to the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on November 7, 2019 by and between the Company, Intermediate, Global Fintech Holding Ltd., a British Virgin Islands company and the sole shareholder of Intermediate (“GFH”), and MICT Merger Subsidiary Inc., a British Virgin Islands company and a wholly owned subsidiary of MICT (“Merger Sub”), as amended and restated on April 15, 2020 (the “Restated Merger Agreement”). As described in the Restated Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Acquisition, each outstanding share of Intermediate was cancelled in exchange for a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $25,000,000 (the “Consideration Note”), which Convertible Note shall be convertible into shares of common stock of MICT at a conversion price of $1.10 per share, subject to stockholder approval.

 

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Restated Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by MICT with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2020.

 

The Business

 

Prior to the completion of the Acquisition, the Company’s business related exclusively to that of its Israel-based subsidiary Micronet Ltd. (“Micronet”), which operates in the growing commercial Mobile Resource Management market. Micronet, through both its Israeli and U.S. operational offices, designs, develops, manufactures and sells rugged mobile computing devices that provide fleet operators and field workforces with computing solutions in challenging work environments.

 

Intermediate is a financial technology company with a significant China marketplace. Intermediate is currently in the process of building various platforms for business opportunities in various verticals and technology segments, including the online trading of stock, oil and gas, and recyclable metal and insurance brokerage (collectively, the “Platforms”). 

 

Leveraging the Intermediate management team’s extensive business experience in China and its deep connections with certain of China’s leading government agencies and provincial and local government departments as well as the contracts secured in valuable market segments, MICT, through its acquisition of Intermediate, plans to launch the Platforms initially in China and, thereafter, to other areas of the world.  MICT aims, and believes that Intermediate has been well positioned, to establish itself as an operator of leading fin-tech platforms, and it intends to continuously improve the capabilities of such platforms through further acquisitions or license of technologies.
