Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed January 21, 2020
GFH, page 2
1.Disclosure that GFH has two wholly owned subsidiaries, ParagonEX and Beijing
Brookfield, appears inconsistent with disclosure under "Share Exchange Agreements" on
page 84 that the closings of the ParagonEx and Beijing Brookfield acquisitions
are pending. Please reconcile the disclosures.
Ownership Structure, page 3
2.Disclosure in the post-closing structure diagram that Global Fintech will own 75.76% of
the company after the merger appears inconsistent with disclosure in the last paragraph on
page 4 that BNN would own greater than 20% of the voting power of the company after
the merger and would be the company's largest shareholder which would be considered a
change of control under Nasdaq listing rules. Please reconcile the disclosures.
Additionally, we note that BNN is not included in the post-closing structure diagram on

page 3 or in the beneficial ownership of securities table on page 216. Please revise or
advise.
3.Given the small ownership percentage of the company's public stockholders after the
merger as illustrated in the post-closing structure diagram, please advise whether the
merger represents the first step in a going private transaction. We note also the risk factor
disclosure "Nasdaq may delist MICT's securities..." on page 34.

favor of the merger proposal, please discuss.

5.Disclosure indicates that GFH will acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary
shares and other equity interest of Beijing Brookfield in exchange for 16,310,759 newly
issued shares of Global Fintech and that GFH will acquire all of the issued and
outstanding shares of ParagonEx in exchange for payment of $10 million in cash and
delivery of 75,132,504 newly issued shares of Global Fintech. Specify what percentage of

time and disclosure on page 7 that Mr. Darren Mercer will receive a majority of shares of
