Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 2, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), MICT, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Investors”) for the purpose of raising approximately $54.0 million in gross proceeds for the Company (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell, in a registered direct offering, an aggregate of 19,285,715 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $2.675 per Share and in a concurrent private placement, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 19,285,715 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock (the “Warrants” and together with the Shares and the Warrant Shares, the “Securities”), at a purchase price of $0.125 per Warrant, for a combined purchase price per Share and Warrant of $2.80 (the “Purchase Price”) which was priced at the market under Nasdaq rules. The Warrants are immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $2.80 per share, subject to adjustment, and expire five years after the issuance date.

The closing of the sales of the Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is expected to occur on or about March 4, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions.

A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners is acting as the exclusive placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) for the Company, on a “reasonable best efforts” basis, in connection with the Offering. Pursuant to that certain Placement Agency Agreement, dated as of March 2, 2021, by and between the Company and the Placement Agent (the “Placement Agency Agreement”), the Placement Agent will be entitled to a cash fee equal to 8.0% of the gross proceeds from the placement of the total amount of Securities sold by the Placement Agent and 3.5% of the gross proceeds from the placement of the total amount of Securities sold in the Offering. In addition, the Placement Agent will be issued a warrant (the “Placement Agent Warrant”) to purchase up to 771,429 shares (the “Placement Agent Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock, substantially the same form as the Warrants, at an exercise price of $3.50 per share (125% of the Purchase Price price), plus a non-accountable expense allowance in an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering.

The net proceeds to the Company from the registered direct offering and concurrent private placement, after deducting the Placement Agent’s fees and expenses but before paying the Company’s estimated offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrant, are expected to be approximately $49.68 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital and for other general corporate purposes. It may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in businesses, products and technologies that are complementary to its business, but the Company currently has no commitments or agreements relating to any of these types of transaction.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement and subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, from the Effective Date until the 90^th day after the Effective Date, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries, may, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent and Investors which purchased at least 67.0% in interest of the Shares offered in the Offering, (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement); (ii) except in limited circumstances, file or cause to be filed any registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the offering of any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, (iii) complete any offering of debt securities, other than entering into a line of credit with a traditional bank or (iv) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of capital stock of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, whether any such transaction described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above is to be settled by delivery of shares of capital stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement and Placement Agency Agreement, the Company’s directors, officers, and its largest shareholder, Global Fintech Holdings Limited entered into lock-up agreements for a 90-day period (the “Lock-Up Agreements”).

The Shares (but not the Warrants or the Warrant Shares) were offered and sold by the Company pursuant to effective registration statements on Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-248602 and 333-253779), as well as a prospectus supplement in connection the Offering to be filed with the SEC.
