## Exhibit 10.1

Exhibit 10.1

**FORM OF NON-REDEMPTION AGREEMENT AND ASSIGNMENT OF ECONOMIC INTEREST**

This Non-Redemption Agreement and Assignment of Economic Interest (this "<u>Agreement</u>") is entered as of , 2023 by and among ExcelFin Acquisition Corp. ("<u>ExcelFin</u>"), ExcelFin SPAC LLC (the "Sponsor") and the undersigned investor ("<u>Investor</u>").

**RECITALS**

**WHEREAS**, the Sponsor currently holds all of the shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of ExcelFin, which were initially purchased in a private placement prior to ExcelFin's initial public offering (the "<u>Founder Shares</u>");

**WHEREAS**, ExcelFin expects to hold a special meeting of stockholders (the "<u>Meeting</u>") for the purpose of approving, among other things, an amendment to ExcelFin's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "<u>Charter</u>") to extend the date by which ExcelFin must consummate an initial business combination (the "<u>Initial Business Combination</u>") by six (6) months (the "<u>Extension Amendment</u>") until October 25, 2023 (the "<u>Extension</u>");

**WHEREAS**, the Charter provides that a stockholder of ExcelFin may redeem its shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, initially sold as part of the units in ExcelFin's initial public offering (whether they were purchased in ExcelFin's initial public offering or thereafter in the open market) (the "<u>Public Shares</u>" and together with the Founder Shares, the "<u>Common Shares</u>") in connection with the Extension Amendment, on the terms set forth in the Charter ("<u>Redemption Rights</u>");

**WHEREAS**, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Sponsor desires to transfer to Investor, and Investor desires to acquire from the Sponsor, that number of Founder Shares set forth opposite such Investor's name on <u>Exhibit A</u> (the "<u>Assigned Securities</u>"), to be transferred to Investor in connection with ExcelFin's completion of its Initial Business Combination, and, prior to the transfer of the Assigned Securities to Investor, the Sponsor desires to assign the economic benefits of the Assigned Securities to Investor.

**NOW THEREFORE**, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Investor, the Sponsor, and ExcelFin hereby agree as follows:

1. <u>Terms of Transfer</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, if (a) as of 5:30 PM, New York time, on the date of the Meeting, Investor
holds the Investor Shares (as defined below), (b) Investor does not exercise (or exercised and validly rescinds) its Redemption Rights
with respect to such Investor Shares in connection with the Meeting, and (c) the Extension is approved at the Meeting and ExcelFin
meets the continued or initial listing requirements to be listed on a National Securities Exchange following the Meeting, then the Sponsor
hereby agrees to assign and transfer to Investor for no additional consideration the Assigned Securities set forth on <u>Exhibit A</u>,
and the Sponsor further agrees to assign to Investor the Economic Interest (as defined below) associated with the Assigned Securities
that the Sponsor has agreed to assign and transfer to Investor. " <u>Investor Shares</u> " shall mean an amount of the Public
Shares equal to the lesser of (i) 200,000 Public Shares, and (ii) 9.9% of the total number of the Public Shares that are not
to be redeemed, including those Public Shares subject to non-redemption agreements with other ExcelFin stockholders similar to this Agreement
on or about the date of the Meeting. The Sponsor and ExcelFin agree to provide Investor with the final number of Investor Shares subject
to this Agreement no later than 9:30 a.m. Eastern on the first business day before the date of the Meeting (and in all cases a sufficient
amount of time to allow the Investor to reverse any exercise of Redemption Rights with regard to any Investor Shares), *provided*,
that such amount shall not exceed 200,000 Public Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2. The Sponsor and Investor hereby agree that the assignment and transfer of the Assigned Securities shall be subject to the conditions
that (i) the Initial Business Combination is consummated; and (ii) Investor (or its permitted transferees (as such term is used
in that certain Letter Agreement, dated October 20, 2021, by and among ExcelFin, the Sponsor and ExcelFin's officers and directors
(such agreement, as it exists on the date hereof, the " <u>Letter Agreement</u> " and such transferees, the " <u>Permitted Transferees</u> ")) executes a joinder to the Letter Agreement set forth as Exhibit B to this Agreement.

Upon the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, as applicable, the Sponsor shall promptly transfer (and no later than two (2) business days following the closing of the Initial Business Combination) the Assigned Securities to Investor (or its Permitted Transferees) free and clear of any liens or other encumbrances, other than pursuant to the Letter Agreement and restrictions on transfer imposed by the securities laws. The Sponsor and ExcelFin covenant and agree to facilitate such transfer to Investor (or its Permitted Transferees) in accordance with the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3. <u>Adjustment to Share Amounts</u>. If at any time the number of outstanding Founder Shares is increased or decreased by a consolidation,
combination, subdivision or reclassification of the Common Shares of ExcelFin or other similar event, then, as of the effective date of
such consolidation, combination, subdivision, reclassification or similar event, all share numbers referenced in this Agreement shall
be adjusted in proportion to such increase or decrease in the Common Shares of ExcelFin.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.4. <u>Merger or Reorganization, etc</u>. If there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation
or merger involving ExcelFin in which its Common Shares are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, then,
following any such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, in lieu of common stock of ExcelFin, the
Sponsor shall transfer, with respect to each Founder Share to be transferred hereunder, upon the Sponsor's receipt thereof, the
kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which such Assigned Securities converted or exchanged; and the Economic Interest
shall be with respect to such kind and amount of securities, cash or other property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5. <u>Forfeitures, Transfers, etc.</u> Investor shall not be subject to any forfeiture, surrender, claw-back, transfers, disposals,
exchanges or earn-outs for any reason on the Assigned Securities. Investor acknowledges that, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Limited
Liability Company Agreement of the Sponsor (as it exists on the date hereof, the " <u>Sponsor LLC Agreement</u> "), prior to,
or at the time of, the Initial Business Combination, the managers of the Sponsor have the authority to cause the Sponsor to subject the
Founder Shares to earn-outs, forfeitures, transfers or other restrictions, or amend the terms under which the Founder Shares were issued
or any restrictions or other provisions relating to the Founder Shares set forth in the instruments establishing the same (including voting
in favor of any such amendment) or enter into any other arrangements with respect to the Founder Shares, and that the managers are authorized
to effectuate such earn-outs, forfeitures, transfers, restrictions, amendments or arrangements, including arrangements relating to the
relaxation or early release of restrictions, in such amounts and pursuant to such terms as they determine in their sole and absolute discretion
for any reason. Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that any such earn-outs, forfeitures, transfers, restrictions, amendments or arrangements
shall apply only to the Founder Shares other than the Assigned Securities and the terms and conditions applicable to the Assigned Securities
and the Economic Interest shall not be changed as a result of any such earn-outs, forfeitures, transfers, restrictions, amendments or
arrangements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.6. <u>Delivery of Shares; Other Documents.</u> At the time of the transfer of Assigned Securities hereunder, the Sponsor shall deliver
the Assigned Securities to Investor by transfer of book-entry shares effected through ExcelFin's transfer agent. The parties to
this Agreement agree to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or
appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.7. <u>Assignment of Registration Rights</u>. Concurrent with
the transfer of Assigned Securities to Investor under this Agreement, the Sponsor hereby assigns all of its rights, duties and
obligations to Investor with respect to the Assigned Securities under that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 20,
2021, by and among ExcelFin, the Sponsor and the other stockholders of ExcelFin signatory thereto (as it exists on the date of the Agreement,
the " <u>Registration Rights Agreement</u> "), and hereby represents and confirms to Investor that, upon Investor's receipt
of the Assigned Securities, (i) Investor shall be a "Holder" under the Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) the
Assigned Securities shall be "Registrable Securities" under the Registration Rights Agreement. This Agreement constitutes
the Sponsor's written notice to ExcelFin of such assignment in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement (if required).
Investor (or its Permitted Transferees) and ExcelFin shall execute the Joinder (as defined below) to the Registration Rights Agreement,
set forth as Exhibit B to this Agreement, pursuant to which, Investor will be bound by the terms and provisions of the Registration
Rights Agreement as a "Holder" thereunder with respect to the Assigned Securities (upon acquisition thereof) as "Registrable
Securities" thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.8. <u>Joinder to Letter Agreement</u>. In connection with the transfer of the Assigned Securities to Investor, Investor shall execute
a joinder to the Letter Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement in substantially the form attached here to as <u>Exhibit B</u> (the " <u>Joinder</u> ") pursuant to which Investor shall agree with ExcelFin to be bound solely by Section 7 of the Letter
Agreement solely with respect to the Assigned Securities and by the terms and provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement as a "Holder"
thereunder with respect to the Assigned Securities (upon acquisition thereof) as "Registrable Securities" thereunder. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement or the Joinder to the contrary, Investor shall be released with respect to the Assigned Securities from
any transfer or lock-up restrictions under the Letter Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement to the same extent as any other holder
of Fonder Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.9. <u>Termination</u>. This Agreement and each of the obligations of the undersigned shall terminate on earlier of (a) the failure
of ExcelFin's stockholders to approve the Extension at the Meeting, (b) the fulfillment of all obligations of parties hereto,
(c) the liquidation or dissolution of ExcelFin, (d) the mutual written agreement of the parties hereto; or (e) if Investor
exercises its Redemption Rights with respect to any Investor Shares in connection with the Meeting and such Investors Shares are actually
redeemed in connection with the Meeting. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Sponsor's obligation
to transfer the Assigned Securities to Investor shall be conditioned on (i) the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 1.2
and (ii) such Investor Shares not being redeemed in connection with the Meeting.

2. <u>Assignment of Economic Interest</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 1.1, the Sponsor hereby assigns to Investor all of its economic right,
title and interest in and to that number of Assigned Securities set forth on <u>Exhibit A</u> (the " <u>Economic Interest</u> "),
subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 2.2. The Economic Interest represents the Sponsor's right to receive dividends
and other distributions made by the Sponsor pursuant to the Sponsor LLC Agreement allocated to that number of Assigned Securities set
forth on <u>Exhibit A</u> represented by the Founder Shares held directly by the Sponsor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2. If at any time the number of outstanding Founder Shares is increased or decreased by a consolidation, combination, split or reclassification
or other similar event, then, as of the effective date of such consolidation, combination, split, reclassification or similar event, the
number of shares underlying the Economic Interest shall be adjusted in proportion to such increase or decrease in outstanding Founder
Shares. The foregoing shall not apply to (i) any increase or decrease in the number of authorized Founder Shares or (ii) a reclassification
of the share capital of ExcelFin, in each case in connection with the closing of the Initial Business Combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3. Investor acknowledges and agrees that it has no right to vote on matters of the Sponsor as a result of the Assigned Securities or
Economic Interest, or to vote with respect to any Assigned Securities, and it has no right to vote Assigned Securities prior to transfer
of any such shares to Investor pursuant to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.4. Investor acknowledges and agrees that if it has a right pursuant to its Economic Interest to receive any dividends or other distributions
paid in Common Shares or other non-cash property, the Sponsor shall transfer all of its right, title and interest in such dividends or
distributions concurrently with the transfer of the Assigned Securities to such Investor pursuant to Section 1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.5. If the conditions to the transfer of the Founder Shares in Section 1 are not satisfied with respect to any Founder Shares, then
Investor shall automatically assign its Economic Interests in such Founder Shares back to the Sponsor, for no consideration.

3. <u>Representations and Warranties of Investor</u>. Investor represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Sponsor that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.1. <u>No Government Recommendation or Approval</u>. Investor understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon or
made any recommendation or endorsement of the offering of the Assigned Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2. <u>Accredited Investor</u>. Investor is an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation
D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the " <u>Securities Act</u> "), and acknowledges that the sale contemplated
hereby is being made in reliance, among other things, on a private placement exemption to "accredited investors" under the
Securities Act and similar exemptions under state law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.3. <u>Intent</u>. Investor is acquiring the Assigned Securities solely for investment purposes, for such Investor's
own account (and/or for the account or benefit of its members or affiliates, as permitted), and not with a view to the distribution thereof
in violation of the Securities Act and Investor has no present arrangement to sell Assigned Securities to or through any person or entity
except as may be permitted hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4. <u>Restrictions on Transfer; Trust Account; Redemption Rights</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4.1. Investor acknowledges and agrees that, prior to their transfer hereunder, the Assigned Securities are, and following any transfer
to Investor may continue to be, subject to the transfer restrictions as set forth in Section 7 of the Letter Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4.2. Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Assigned Securities are not entitled to, and have no right, interest or claim of any kind
in or to, any monies held in the trust account into which the proceeds of ExcelFin's initial public offering were deposited (the
 " <u>Trust Account</u> ") or distributed as a result of any liquidation of the Trust Account.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4.3. Investor agrees, solely for the benefit of and, notwithstanding anything else herein, enforceable only by ExcelFin, to waive any right
that it may have to elect to have ExcelFin redeem any Investor Shares in connection with the Extension and agrees not to redeem, or otherwise
exercise any right to redeem, the Investor Shares in connection with the Extension and to reverse and revoke any prior redemption elections
made with respect to the Investor Shares in connection with the Extension. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement is intended
to restrict or prohibit Investor's ability to redeem any Public Shares (other than the Investor Shares), or to trade or redeem any
Public Shares (other than the Investor Shares), in its discretion at any time or to trade or redeem any Investor Shares in its discretion
and at any time after the date of the Meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4.4. Investor acknowledges and understands the Assigned Securities are being offered in a transaction not involving a public offering in
the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act and, if in the future
Investor decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer Assigned Securities, such Assigned Securities may be offered, resold,
pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (B) pursuant
to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, if available, or (C) pursuant to any
other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in each case in accordance with any applicable
securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction. Investor agrees that, if any transfer of the Assigned Securities or
any interest therein is proposed to be made (other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144 under the Securities
Act), as a condition precedent to any such transfer, Investor may be required to deliver to ExcelFin an opinion of counsel satisfactory
to ExcelFin that registration is not required with respect to the Assigned Securities to be transferred. Absent registration or another
available exemption from registration, Investor agrees it will not transfer the Assigned Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.5. <u>Sophisticated Investor</u>. Investor is sophisticated in financial matters and able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment
in the Assigned Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.6. <u>Risk of Loss</u>. Investor is aware that an investment in the Assigned Securities is highly speculative and subject to substantial
risks. Investor is cognizant of and understands the risks related to the acquisition of the Assigned Securities, including those restrictions
described or provided for in this Agreement, the Sponsor LLC Agreement and the Letter Agreement pertaining to transferability. Investor
is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Assigned Securities for an indefinite period of time and able to sustain a
complete loss of such investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.7. <u>Independent Investigation</u>. Investor has relied upon an independent investigation of ExcelFin and has not relied
upon any information or representations made by any third parties or upon any oral or written representations or assurances, express or
implied, from the Sponsor or any representatives or agents of the Sponsor, other than as set forth in this Agreement. Investor is familiar
with the business, operations and financial condition of ExcelFin and has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers
from ExcelFin's management concerning ExcelFin and the terms and conditions of the proposed sale of the Assigned Securities and
has had full access to such other information concerning ExcelFin as Investor has requested. Investor confirms that all documents that
it has requested have been made available and that Investor has been supplied with all of the additional information concerning this investment
which Investor has requested.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.8. <u>Organization and Authority</u>. If an entity, Investor is duly organized and existing under the laws of the jurisdiction
in which it was organized and it possesses all requisite power and authority to acquire the Assigned Securities, enter into this Agreement
and perform all the obligations required to be performed by Investor hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9. <u>Non-U.S. Investor</u>. If Investor is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the U.S. Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the " <u>Code</u> ")), Investor hereby
represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to
subscribe for the Assigned Securities or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction
for the acquisition of the Assigned Securities, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such acquisition, (iii) any
governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may
be relevant to the acquisition, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Assigned Securities. Investor's subscription and payment
for and continued beneficial ownership of the Assigned Securities will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Investor's
jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.10. <u>Authority</u>. This Agreement has been validly authorized, executed and delivered by Investor and (assuming due authorization,
execution and delivery by the Sponsor and ExcelFin) is a valid and binding agreement of the Investor enforceable against the Investor
in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
moratorium, reorganization, or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors' rights and remedies
or by equitable principles of general application and except as enforcement of rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by
federal and state securities laws or principles of public policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.11. <u>No Conflicts</u>. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by Investor of the transactions
contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) Investor's organizational documents, (ii) any
agreement or instrument to which Investor is a party or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which Investor is subject,
or any order, judgment or decree to which Investor is subject, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), that would reasonably be expected
to prevent Investor from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.12. <u>No Advice from Sponsor</u>. Investor has had the opportunity to review this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the Letter Agreement with Investor's own legal counsel and investment and tax advisors. Except for any
statements or representations of the Sponsor or ExcelFin explicitly made in this Agreement, Investor is relying solely on such counsel
and advisors and not on any statements or representations, express or implied, of the Sponsor or any of its representatives or agents
for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation for legal, tax or investment advice, with respect to this investment, the Sponsor,
ExcelFin, the Assigned Securities, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the securities laws of any jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.13. <u>Reliance on Representations and Warranties</u>. Investor understands that the Assigned Securities are being offered
and sold to Investor in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements under the Securities Act, and analogous provisions in
the laws and regulations of various states, and that the Sponsor is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Investor set forth in this Agreement in order to determine the applicability of such

11. <u>Headings</u> *.* The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered
in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

12. <u>Disclosure; Waiver</u>. In connection with the entry
into this agreement, ExcelFin shall, by 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the business day immediately following the date hereof (such
date and time, the " <u>Disclosure Time</u> "), issue one or more press releases or file with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing, to the extent not previously publicly disclosed, all material
terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and any other material, nonpublic information that ExcelFin has provided to Investor at
any time prior to the Disclosure Time. ExcelFin shall make sure disclosures to insure that, as of the Disclosure Time, Investor shall
not be in possession of any material, nonpublic information received from ExcelFin, Sponsor or any of their respective officers, directors,
employees or representatives. The parties to this Agreement shall cooperate with one another to assure that such disclosure is accurate.
ExcelFin agrees that the name of the Investor shall not be included in any public disclosures related to this Agreement unless required
by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule. Investor (i) acknowledges that the Sponsor may possess or have access to material
non-public information which has not been communicated to the Investor; (ii) hereby waives any and all claims, whether at law, in
equity or otherwise, that he, she, or it may now have or may hereafter acquire, whether presently known or unknown, against the Sponsor
or any of ExcelFin's officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, subsidiaries, successors or assigns relating to any failure
to disclose any non-public information in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, including any potential business
combination involving ExcelFin, including without limitation, any claims arising under Rule 10-b(5) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended; and (iii) is aware that the Sponsor is relying on the truth of the representations set forth in Section 3
of this Agreement and the foregoing acknowledgement and waiver in this Section 12, in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.

13. <u>Independent Nature of Rights and Obligations</u>. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any party pursuant hereto, shall
be deemed to constitute Investor and the Sponsor as, and the Sponsor acknowledges that Investor and the Sponsor do not so constitute,
a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Investor and the Sponsor are
in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any
matters, and the Sponsor acknowledges that Investor and the Sponsor are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Sponsor shall not
assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

14. <u>Most Favored Nation</u>. In the event the Sponsor or ExcelFin has entered or enters into one or more other non-redemption agreements
before or after the execution of this Agreement in connection with the Meeting (each, an " <u>Other Agreement</u> " and, the
Company stockholder party thereto, an " <u>Other Investor</u> "), the Sponsor and ExcelFin represent and covenant that the terms
of such other agreements are not materially more favorable to such other investors thereunder than the terms of this Agreement are in
respect of the Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, the Sponsor and the Company acknowledge and agree that a ratio of Investor Shares
to Assigned Securities in any such Other Agreement that is more favorable to such Other Investor than such ratio in this Agreement is
to Investor would be materially more favorable to such Other Investor. In the event that another investor is afforded any such more favorable
terms than the Investor, the Sponsor shall promptly inform the Investor of such more favorable terms in writing, and the Investor shall
have the right to elect to have such more favorable terms included herein, in which case the parties hereto shall promptly amend this
Agreement to effect the same.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date first above written.

TO

LETTER AGREEMENT

AND

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

______, 2023

Reference is made to that certain Non-Redemption Agreement and Assignment of Economic Interest, dated as of March , 2023 (the "<u>Agreement</u>"), by and among ("<u>Investor</u>"), ExcelFin Acquisition Corp. (the "<u>Company</u>") and ExcelFin SPAC LLC (the "<u>Sponsor</u>"), pursuant to which Investor acquired securities of the Company from the Sponsor. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Agreement.

By executing this joinder, Investor hereby agrees, as of the date first set forth above, that Investor (i) shall become a party to that certain Letter Agreement, dated October 20, 2021, by and among the Company, the Sponsor and the Company's officers and directors (as it exists on the date of the Agreement, the "<u>Letter Agreement</u>"), solely with respect to Section 7 of the Letter Agreement, and shall be bound by, and shall be subject to the restrictions set forth under, the terms and provisions of such section of the Letter Agreement as an Insider (as defined therein) solely with respect to its Assigned Securities, provided, however, that the Investor shall be permitted to transfer its Assigned Securities to its affiliates and as permitted by the Letter Agreement; and (ii) shall become a party to that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 20, 2021, by and among the Company, the Sponsor and the other stockholders of the Company signatory thereto (as it exists on the date of the Agreement, the "<u>Registration Rights Agreement</u>"), and shall be bound by the terms and provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement as a Holder (as defined therein) and entitled to the rights of a Holder under the Registration Rights Agreement and the Assigned Securities (together with any other equity security of the Company issued or issuable with respect to any such Assigned Securities by way of a share dividend or share subdivision or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or reorganization) shall be "Registrable Securities" thereunder.

For the purposes of clarity, it is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained herein, in the Letter Agreement (to the extent applicable to Investor) and the Registration Rights Agreement is between the Company and Investor, solely, and not between and among Investor and the other stockholders of the Company signatory thereto.

This joinder may be executed in two or more counterparts, and by facsimile, all of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
