NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ExcelFin Acquisition Corp. ("we", "us", "our", or the "Company"), today announced that the Special Meeting originally scheduled for October 18, 2023 (the "Special Meeting") is being adjourned to October 20, 2023. At the Special Meeting, the Company's stockholders will be asked:

• to consider and vote upon a proposal to amend the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "Charter") pursuant to a second amendment to the Charter (the "Extension Amendment") to extend the date by which the Company must effectuate an initial business combination from October 25, 2023 (the "Termination Date") to April 25, 2024, comprised of an initial three-month extension and three subsequent one-month extensions, for a total of six months after the Termination Date (assuming the Company's initial business combination has not occurred); and
• to consider and vote upon a proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, to (i) permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Special Meeting, there are not sufficient votes to approve one or more proposals presented to stockholders for vote or (ii) if stockholders have elected to redeem an amount of shares in connection with the Extension Amendment such that the Company would not adhere to the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Global Market ("Nasdaq") (the "Adjournment Proposal").

As a result of this change, the Special Meeting will now be held at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on October 22, 2023, exclusively via live webcast at the following address:

The record date for the stockholders to vote at the Special Meeting remains the close of business on September 22, 2023 (the "Record Date"). Stockholders who have previously submitted their proxy or otherwise voted and who do not want to change their vote need not take any action. Stockholders as of the Record Date can vote, even if they have subsequently sold their shares. In connection with the adjourned date, the Company has further extended the deadline for holders of the Company's Class A common stock issued in the Company's initial public offering to submit their shares for redemption in connection with the Special Meeting to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 18, 2023. Stockholders who wish to withdraw their previously submitted redemption request may do so prior to the rescheduled meeting by requesting that the transfer agent return such shares.
