Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On December 1, 2022, Tingo, Inc. ("Tingo" or the "Company") completed the transactions contemplated in that certain Second Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Second Amended Merger Agreement" or simply, the "Merger Agreement"), dated October 6, 2022, with MICT, Inc. ("MICT"), a Delaware corporation whose common shares are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol 'MICT', and representatives of the shareholders of both Tingo and MICT. A copy of the Second Amended Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on October 14, 2022, which Current Report is hereby incorporated by reference.

MICT also created a subsidiary incorporated in the British Virgin Islands ("MICT BVI Sub"). On November 30, 2022, a Certificate of Merger was filed with the Registrar of Corporate Affairs for the British Virgin Islands to complete the merger of Tingo BVI Sub with and into MICT BVI Sub (hereinafter, the "Merger"), with the result that Tingo Mobile is now wholly-owned by MICT.
