On
May 9, 2024, WinVest Acquisition Corp. (“WinVest”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination
Agreement”), by and among WinVest, WinVest Merger Sub I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary
of WinVest (“Merger Sub I”), WinVest Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary
of WinVest (“Merger Sub II”), Xtribe P.L.C., a public limited company incorporated and registered in England and Wales with
number 07878011 (“Xtribe PLC”), and Xtribe Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of
Xtribe PLC (“Xtribe Group” and, together with Xtribe PLC, “Xtribe”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) have the meanings set forth in the Business Combination
Agreement. The Business Combination Agreement and transactions contemplated therein (the “Transactions”) were approved by
the board of directors of WinVest (the “WinVest Board”) and the board of directors of Xtribe PLC (the “Xtribe Board”).
The
Mergers
The
Business Combination Agreement provides that, among other things and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, the following
transactions will occur (together with the Transactions and other agreements contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the
“Business Combination”):
(i)
prior to the date of the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), Xtribe PLC will cause the conversion of all
convertible securities, conversion rights or other similar rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character relating
to the issued or unissued capital stock of Xtribe or obligating Xtribe to issue or sell any shares of capital stock of, or other equity
interests in, Xtribe outstanding prior to the Contribution (as defined below) into capital stock of, or other equity interests in, Xtribe
(such transactions, the “Securities Conversion”), and promptly thereafter, pursuant to the terms of a Contribution and Reorganization
Agreement in substantially the form attached to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Contribution and Reorganization Agreement”),
(a) contribute substantially all of its assets (including all the issued and outstanding stock of Xtribe USA Corp.) and certain of its
liabilities to the Company in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Xtribe Group (the “Contribution”);
(b) immediately following the Contribution, pursuant to the terms of a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement in substantially the form
attached to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), sell one hundred percent (100%) of the membership
interests of Xtribe Group to the shareholders of Xtribe PLC in proportion to their ownership interests in Xtribe PLC (the “Sale”),
and (c) acting through the Xtribe Board, thereafter apply for a voluntary strike off pursuant to Part 31 of the United Kingdom Companies
Act 2006 and take such other commercially reasonable actions to ensure the voluntary strike off is successful (the “Application
for Strike Off” and, together with the Securities Conversion, the Contribution and the Sale, the “Pre-Closing Reorganization”)
and on and subject to the strike off being successful, Xtribe PLC will be dissolved;
(ii)
at the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement and in accordance with the Delaware
Limited Liability Company Act, the Merger Sub I will merge with and into Xtribe Group (the “Xtribe Merger”), with Xtribe
Group continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of WinVest (Xtribe Group, in its capacity as the surviving company
of the Xtribe Merger, is sometimes referred to herein as the “Interim Surviving Company”);
(iii)
promptly following the consummation of the Xtribe Merger, the Interim Surviving Company will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Forward
Merger” and the time of such merger, the “Forward Merger Effective Time”), whereupon the separate existence of the
Interim Surviving Company will cease and Merger Sub II will be the surviving entity of the Forward Merger and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary
of WinVest (the “Surviving Company”);
(iv)
as a result of the Xtribe Merger, (a) each Xtribe Group common unit issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time
of the Xtribe Merger (the “Effective Time”) shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive (X) that number of
shares of common stock, par value ($0.0001) of WinVest (“WinVest Common Stock”) equal to the Per Share Exchange Ratio (as
defined in the Business Combination Agreement), and (Y) that number of Earnout Rights (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement)
equal to 6,000,000 divided by the number of Xtribe Group common units outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (excluding the Xtribe
Group common units of any holders who have waived in writing their right to receive Earnout Rights prior to the Closing), with each holder
of such Xtribe Group common units having the right to receive that number of shares of WinVest Common Stock and that number of Earnout
Shares (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement); and
(v)
pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the Closing, WinVest shall deposit with an exchange agent, for the benefit of the
holders of Xtribe Group common units, (i) 9,133,204 shares of WinVest Common Stock, plus (ii) a number of shares of WinVest Common Stock
equal to the quotient of (a) the aggregate amount of [outstanding indebtedness owed under convertible notes that were converted prior
to Closing, divided by (b) $10.00 (the “Conversion Stock Consideration”), provided that the Conversion Stock Consideration
shall not exceed a maximum of 190,000 shares of WinVest common stock, plus (iii) a number of shares of WinVest Common Stock equal to
the quotient of (a) the cash proceeds to the Xtribe Group resulting from certain subscription agreements that may be entered into by
investors, prior to the Closing, with Xtribe PLC, divided by (b) $10.00, plus (iv) and Earnout Rights to receive, if earned, up to 6,000,000
shares of WinVest Common Stock.

respective affiliates. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Business Combination Agreement, the
Ancillary Agreements and the other documents related thereto, as applicable, were made only for purposes of such agreements as of the
specific dates therein, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, and
may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for

parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Business Combination Agreement
and the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, and should not rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements or any

date of the Business Combination Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, which subsequent information may or may not be
fully reflected in WinVest’s public disclosures.
Additional
Information and Where to Find It
This
Current Report on Form 8-K relates to a proposed transaction between Xtribe and WinVest. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not a proxy
statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the potential transaction
and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of Xtribe, the combined company or WinVest,
nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful
prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made
except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
WinVest currently intends to file a registration statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will include
a document that serves as a prospectus and proxy statement of WinVest, referred to as a proxy statement/prospectus, and certain other
related documents. A proxy statement/prospectus will be sent to all WinVest stockholders. WinVest also will file other documents regarding
the proposed transaction with the SEC. Before making any voting decision, investors and security holders of WinVest are urged to read
the registration statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC
in connection with the proposed transaction as they become available because they will contain important information about the proposed
transaction.
Investors
and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the registration statement, the proxy statement/prospectus and all other relevant
documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC by WinVest through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.
Participants
in the Solicitation
WinVest
and Xtribe, certain stockholders of WinVest, and WinVest’s and Xtribe’s respective directors, executive officers and employees
and other persons, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the holders of WinVest Common Stock in connection
with the proposed transaction. Information about WinVest’s directors and executive officers and their ownership of WinVest Common
Stock is set forth in WinVest’s 2023 Form 10-K (defined below), as modified or supplemented by any Form 3 or Form 4 filed with
the SEC since the date of that filing. Other information regarding the identity of and interests of the participants in the proxy solicitation,
including Xtribe’s directors and executive officers, will be included in the Registration Statement pertaining to the proposed
transaction when it is filed with the SEC. These documents can be obtained free of charge from the sources indicated above.
Cautionary
Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain
statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K are “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe
harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical facts,
including statements about the proposed transaction described herein, and the parties’ perspectives and expectations, are forward-looking
statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the proposed transaction, including the anticipated
initial enterprise value and post-closing equity value, the benefits of the proposed transaction, integration plans, expected synergies
and revenue opportunities, anticipated future financial and operating performance and results, including estimates for growth, the expected
management and governance of the combined company, and the expected timing of the transactions. The words “anticipate,” “expect,”
“believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “proposed,” “seek,”
“will,” “would,” and similar expressions indicate forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various risks, uncertainties and assumptions (including assumptions about
general economic, market, industry and operational factors), known or unknown, which could cause the actual results to vary materially
from those indicated or anticipated.
Such
risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: risks related to the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the proposed
transaction, including the risk that the proposed transaction may not close due to the failure to receive the required securityholder
approvals or due to one or more other closing conditions to the transaction not being satisfied or waived, such as regulatory approvals
not being obtained, on a timely basis or otherwise, or that a governmental entity prohibited, delayed or refused to grant approval for
the consummation of the transaction or required certain conditions, limitations or restrictions in connection with such approvals; the
risk that WinVest may not receive the benefits of the proposed transaction; WinVest’s or the combined company’s inability
to meet Nasdaq’s listing standards; the costs related to the proposed transaction; Xtribe’s ability to manage growth; Xtribe’s
ability to execute its business plan; risks related to the ability of WinVest and Xtribe to successfully integrate their respective businesses;
general economic and market conditions; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination
of the applicable transaction agreements; the risk that there may be a material adverse change with respect to the financial position,
performance, operations or prospects of Xtribe or WinVest; risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations
due to the proposed transaction; the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the
market price of WinVest’s securities; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect
on the ability of Xtribe to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with their suppliers and customers
and on their operating results and businesses generally; and risks relating to the combined company’s ability to enhance its services
and products, execute its business strategy, expand its customer base and maintain stable relationship with its business partners.
A
further list and description of risks and uncertainties can be found in WinVest’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 15, 2024 (the “2023 Form 10-K”) and in the Registration Statement that
will be filed with the SEC by WinVest in connection with the proposed transaction, and other documents that the parties may file or furnish
with the SEC, which you are encouraged to read. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking statements.
Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate
only to the date they were made, and WinVest, Xtribe and their subsidiaries undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information or to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date they were made except,
as required by law or applicable regulation.

(“Merger Sub II”), Xtribe P.L.C., a public limited company incorporated and registered in England and Wales

rights or other similar rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character relating to the issued or unissued capital stock
of any Group Company or obligating any Group Company to issue or sell any shares of capital stock of, or other equity interests in, any
Group Company outstanding prior to the Contribution into capital stock of, or other equity interests in, the applicable Group Company
(such transactions, and for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any conversions occurring prior to the Execution Date, the “Securities

and Reorganization Agreement in substantially the form set forth on Exhibit A (the “Contribution and Reorganization

and on and subject to the strike off being successful, Xtribe PLC will be dissolved (the “Xtribe PLC Dissolution”).

existence of the Interim Surviving Company will cease and Merger Sub II will be the surviving entity of the Forward Merger and a direct
wholly-owned subsidiary of WinVest (the “Surviving Company”);
WHEREAS,
the Xtribe Board by resolutions duly adopted in compliance with Xtribe PLC’s articles of association, either by unanimous vote
of those voting at a quorate meeting duly called and held or by unanimous written consent, and in either case not subsequently rescinded
or modified in any way, has unanimously (a) declared that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents

Aggregate MERGER CONSIDERATION; Exchange of certificates
Section
3.01 Aggregate Merger Consideration.
(a)
Payment Spreadsheet. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to WinVest a schedule
(the “Payment Spreadsheet”) setting forth (i) the name, last known address and (to the extent available) email
address of each holder of Company Common Units; (ii) the amount of Closing Stock Consideration payable to each holder of Company Common
Units; (iii) the number of Earnout Rights payable to each holder of Company Common Units; and (iv) the amount of Xtribe Financing Stock
Consideration payable to each Xtribe Investor, and (v) any other information reasonably required by WinVest or the Exchange Agent to
transfer the Closing Stock Consideration and the Earnout Rights to the holders of Company Common Units, which Payment Spreadsheet shall
be prepared in good faith by the Company and in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to WinVest and accompanied by documentation
reasonably satisfactory to WinVest. The Company shall provide WinVest with reasonable access to the relevant books, records and personnel
of the Company to enable WinVest to review the Payment Spreadsheet. The allocations and calculations set forth in the Payment Spreadsheet
(as may be amended in accordance with the preceding sentence) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, be binding on
all parties hereto and be used by WinVest for purposes of issuing the Aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with this Agreement,
absent manifest error. In issuing the Aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III, WinVest and the Merger Subs
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, be entitled to rely fully on the information set forth in the Payment Spreadsheet
without any obligation to investigate or verify the accuracy or correctness thereof, and to make payments in accordance therewith.
(b)
Xtribe Merger Consideration. At the Xtribe Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Xtribe Merger and without any action on the
part of WinVest, the Merger Subs, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:
(i)
each Company Common Unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Xtribe Merger Effective Time shall be canceled and converted
into the right to receive (X) that number of shares of WinVest Common Stock equal to the Per Share Exchange Ratio, and (Y) that number
of Earnout Rights equal to 6,000,000 divided by the number of Company Common Units outstanding immediately prior to the Xtribe Merger
Effective Time (excluding the Company Common Units of any holders who have waived in writing their right to receive Earnout Rights prior
to the Xtribe Merger Effective Time), with each holder of such Company Common Units having the right to receive that number of shares
of WinVest Common Stock and that number of Earnout Shares (to the extent payable in accordance with Section 3.05), as set forth
opposite such holder’s name on the Payment Spreadsheet;
(ii)
all Company Common Units held in the treasury of the Company shall be canceled without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution
shall be made with respect thereto; and
(iii)
each of the Merger Sub I Interests issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Xtribe Merger Effective Time shall remain outstanding
as membership interests of the Interim Surviving Company.
(c)
No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of WinVest Common Stock shall be issued to a holder of Company Common Units in connection
with the Xtribe Merger as part of the Closing Stock Consideration as a result of the conversion provided for in Section 3.01(b)
above, and no certificates for any such fractional shares shall be issued. In the event any holder of Company Common Units would otherwise
be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of WinVest Common Stock as part of the Closing Stock Consideration, such fractional share
shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. WinVest and the Company acknowledge that any such adjustment was not separately bargained-for
consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to the parties that
would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.
(d)
Forward Merger Consideration. At the Forward Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Forward Merger and without any action on
the part of WinVest, the Merger Subs, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:
(i)

shall be made with respect thereto; and
(ii)
the Merger Sub II Interests issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Xtribe Merger Effective Time shall remain outstanding as
membership interests of the Surviving Company.
Section 3.02 Exchange
of Certificates for Company Common Units.
(a)
Exchange Agent. On the Closing Date, WinVest shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with Continental Stock Transfer &
Trust Company (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Units, for exchange
in accordance with this Article III, shares of WinVest Common Stock representing the Closing Stock Consideration and Earnout
Rights to receive, if earned, up to Six Million (6,000,000) shares of WinVest Common Stock (such certificates for shares of WinVest Common
Stock and Earnout Rights, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.02(c),
being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). WinVest shall cause the Exchange Agent, pursuant to
irrevocable instructions, to pay the Aggregate Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. Except
as contemplated by Section 3.02(c) hereof, the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.
(b)
Exchange Procedures. As promptly as practicable after the Xtribe Merger Effective Time, WinVest shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of Company Common Units entitled to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger
Consideration pursuant to Section 3.01 a letter of transmittal, which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to WinVest and
the Company (the “Letter of Transmittal”), and shall specify (i) that delivery shall be effected, and risk
of loss and title to the certificates evidencing such Company Common Units (the “Certificates”) shall pass,
only upon proper delivery and surrender of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent; and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender
of the Certificates pursuant to the Letter of Transmittal. Within two (2) Business Days (but in no event prior to the Xtribe Merger Effective
Time) after the surrender to the Exchange Agent of all Certificates held by such holder for cancellation, together with a Letter of Transmittal,
duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto and such other documents as may be required pursuant
to such instructions, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and WinVest shall cause the
Exchange Agent to deliver, the portion of Aggregate Merger Consideration to which such holder is entitled in accordance with the provisions
of Section 3.01, and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section
3.02, each Certificate entitled to receive the applicable portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with Section
3.01 shall be deemed at all times after the Xtribe Merger Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender
of such Certificate the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration that the holder of such Certificate is entitled to receive in accordance
with the provisions of Section 3.01.
(c)
Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares of WinVest Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions declared or made
after the Xtribe Merger Effective Time with respect to the WinVest Common Stock with a record date after the Xtribe Merger Effective
Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of WinVest Common Stock represented thereby
until the holder of such Certificate shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with Section 3.02(b). Subject to the
effect of escheat, Tax or other applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate, WinVest shall pay or cause to be paid to
the holder of the certificates representing shares of WinVest Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) promptly,
but in any event within five (5) Business Days of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after
the Xtribe Merger Effective Time and a payment date prior to surrender and theretofore paid with respect to shares of WinVest Common
Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions, with a record date after the Xtribe
Merger Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date occurring after surrender, payable with respect to shares of WinVest
Common Stock.
(d)
No Further Rights in Company Common Units. The portion of Aggregate Merger Consideration payable upon conversion of the Company
Common Units in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid and issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining
to such Company Common Units.
(e)
Adjustments to Aggregate Merger Consideration. The Aggregate Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the
effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange
of shares or other like change with respect to WinVest Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Xtribe Merger
Effective Time.
(f)
Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Common Units
for one year after the Xtribe Merger Effective Time shall be delivered to WinVest, upon written request of WinVest, and any holders of
Company Common Units who have not theretofore complied with this Section 3.02 shall thereafter look only to WinVest for such
holder’s portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Company
Common Units as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any
government entity shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of WinVest free and clear of any claims or interest
of any person previously entitled thereto.
(g)
No Liability. None of the Exchange Agent, WinVest or the Surviving Company shall be liable to any holder of Company Common Units
for any such Company Common Units (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), Earnout Rights or cash delivered to a public
official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law in accordance with this Section 3.02 and Section 3.05.
(h)
Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, Surviving Company, WinVest and Merger Sub I shall be entitled to deduct and withhold
from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Common Units such amounts as it is required
to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law.
To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Exchange Agent, Surviving Company, WinVest or Merger Sub I, as the case may be, and
timely remitted to the appropriate taxing authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having
been paid to the holder of the Company Common Units in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent,
Surviving Company, WinVest or Merger Sub I, as the case may be.
(i)
Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact
by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen
or destroyed Certificate, the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration that such holder is otherwise entitled to receive pursuant
to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 3.01, provided, however, that the Company may, in its discretion
or as required by the Exchange Agent and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or
destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against
the Company with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.
Section 3.03
Equity Transfer Books. At the
Xtribe Merger Effective Time, the equity transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of
transfers of Company Common Units thereafter on the records of the Company. From and after the Xtribe Merger Effective Time, the holders
of Certificates representing Company Common Units outstanding immediately prior to the Xtribe Merger Effective Time shall cease to have
any rights with respect to such Company Common Units, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Law. On or after the Xtribe
Merger Effective Time, any Certificates surrendered or presented to the Exchange Agent, or WinVest if it receives any portion of the
Exchange Fund pursuant to Section 3.02(f), shall be converted into that portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with
the provisions of Section 3.01.
Section 3.04
Payment of Expenses.
(a)
No sooner than five (5) Business Days or later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide to WinVest
a written report setting forth a list of all fees and expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Company Signatories in connection with
the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (together with
written invoices and wire transfer instructions for the payment thereof), solely to the extent such fees and expenses are incurred and
expected to remain unpaid as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date: (i) the fees and disbursements
of outside counsel to the Company Signatories incurred in connection with the Transactions; and (ii) the fees and expenses of any other
agents, advisors, consultants, experts, financial advisors and other service providers engaged by the Company Signatories in connection
with the Transactions (collectively, the “Outstanding Company Transaction Expenses”). On the Closing Date following
the Closing, WinVest shall pay or cause to be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds all such Outstanding Company Transaction
Expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, the Outstanding Company Transaction Expenses shall not include any fees and expenses of the equityholders
of the Group Companies that are not Company Signatories that were not incurred by or on behalf of the Group Companies that are not Company
Signatories.
(b)
No sooner than five (5) Business Days or later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, WinVest shall provide to the Company
a written report setting forth a list of all fees, expenses and disbursements incurred by or on behalf of WinVest or the Merger Subs
for outside counsel, agents, advisors, consultants, experts, financial advisors and other service providers engaged by or on behalf of
WinVest or the Merger Subs in connection with the Transactions or otherwise in connection with WinVest’s operations, including
(i) all deferred expenses (including fees or commissions payable to the underwriters and any legal fees) of WinVest’s initial public
offering payable upon consummation of a Business Combination (and the amount and payee of such deferred expenses is set forth on Schedule
3.04(b)), (ii) the fees and expenses of outside legal counsel, accountants, advisors, brokers, investment bankers, consultants, financial
printers, proxy solicitors, or other agents or service providers of WinVest, and (iii) any other fees, expenses, commissions or other
amounts that are expressly allocated to WinVest pursuant to this Agreement (together with written invoices and wire transfer instructions
for the payment thereof) (collectively, the “Outstanding WinVest Transaction Expenses”). On the Closing Date
following the Closing, WinVest shall pay or cause to be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds all such Outstanding WinVest
Transaction Expenses unless they have previously been paid. For the avoidance of doubt, the Outstanding WinVest Transaction Expenses
shall not include any fees and expenses of the Sponsor or other equityholders of WinVest that were not incurred by or on behalf of WinVest.
Section

(a)
At the Closing, as part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration, each holder of Company Common Units shall be entitled to receive the Earnout
Rights in accordance with Section 3.01(b)(i) and the Payment Spreadsheet.

Following the Closing, if, at any time during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending at 11:59 PM Eastern time on December
31, 2026:
(i)
The VWAP of the WinVest Common Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive
Trading Days (the “First Level Earnout Target”), then as soon as commercially practicable and in any event
within ten (10) Business Days following the achievement of the First Level Earnout Target, the holders of the Earnout Rights as of the
date of such achievement shall be entitled to receive, and WinVest shall cause the issuance to such holders, pro-rata in accordance with
their ownership percentage of Earnout Rights, 2,000,000 shares of WinVest Common Stock (the “First Level Earnout Shares”);
(ii)
The VWAP of the WinVest Common Stock equals or exceeds $17.50 for any twenty
(20) Trading Days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days (the “Second Level Earnout
Target”), then as soon as commercially practicable and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following the
achievement of the Second Level Earnout Target, the holders of the Earnout Rights as of the date of such achievement shall
be entitled to receive, and WinVest shall cause the issuance to such holders, pro-rata in accordance with their ownership percentage
of Earnout Rights, 2,000,000 shares of WinVest Common Stock (the “Second Level
Earnout Shares”); and
(iii)
The VWAP of the WinVest Common Stock equals or exceeds $20.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive
Trading Days (the “Third Level Earnout Target”), then as soon as commercially practicable and in any event

their ownership percentage of Earnout Rights, 2,000,000 shares of WinVest Common Stock (the “Third Level Earnout Shares”).
(c)
For the avoidance of doubt, the Earnout Targets may all be satisfied over the same period of Trading Days or any other periods that have
overlapping Trading Days, and if each Earnout Target is separately met the Earnout Shares in connection with each such Earnout Target
shall be earned and no longer subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 3.05, and shall be cumulative with the Earnout
Shares earned prior to such time.
(d)
The Earnout Shares and the Earnout Targets shall automatically be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse
stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into shares of WinVest Common Stock), reorganization,
recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to shares of WinVest Common Stock,
occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the time any such Earnout Shares are delivered to the holders of the Earnout Rights.
(e)
No fractional shares of WinVest Common Stock shall be issued to a holder of Earnout Rights in connection with the issuance of Earnout
Shares in accordance with this Section 3.05, and no certificates for any such fractional shares shall be issued. In the event
any holder of Earnout Rights would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of WinVest Common Stock, such fractional share
shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. WinVest and the Company acknowledge that any such adjustment was not separately bargained-for
consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to WinVest that
would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.
(f)
Any issuance of Earnout Shares shall be treated as an adjustment to the Aggregate Merger Consideration by the parties hereto for Tax
purposes and not treated as “other property” within the meaning of Section 356 of the Code, unless otherwise required by
applicable Law as a result of a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code).
(g)
Following the Closing, WinVest, the Surviving Company and their subsidiaries, including the applicable members of the Company Group,
will be entitled to operate their respective businesses based upon their respective business requirements. Each of WinVest, the Surviving
Company and their subsidiaries, including the applicable members of the Company Group, will be permitted, following the Closing, to make
changes at its sole discretion to its operations, organization, personnel, accounting practices and other aspects of its business, including
actions that may have an impact on, the share price of the WinVest Common Stock and the ability of the holders of Earnout Rights to earn
the Earnout Shares, and no person will have any right to claim the loss of all or any portion of any Earnout Shares or other damages
as a result of such decisions.

been deposited in the Trust Account for the benefit of its public shareholders. The Company Signatories further acknowledge that, if
the Xtribe Merger and the other Transactions are not consummated by December 17, 2024 or such later date as approved by the shareholders
of WinVest to complete a business combination, WinVest will be obligated to return to its stockholders the amounts being held in the
Trust Account. The Company Signatories (on behalf of themselves and their affiliates they have authority to bind) agree that, notwithstanding
any other provision contained in this Agreement, neither Company Signatory now has, and shall not at any time prior to the Xtribe Merger

in connection with or relating in any way to, the business relationship between any Group Company on the one hand, and WinVest on the
other hand, this Agreement, or any other agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract,
tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to in this Section 6.03
as the “Claims”). Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company Signatories
(on behalf of themselves and their affiliates they have authority to bind) hereby irrevocably waive any Claim they may have, now or in
the future and will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund, any trustee of the Trust Account or WinVest or its affiliates in respect
of such Claims; provided, however, that the foregoing waiver will not limit or prohibit the Company Signatories from pursuing
a claim against WinVest, the Merger Subs or any other person for legal relief against monies or other assets of WinVest or the Merger
Subs held outside of the Trust Account or for specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the Transactions or for
damages for breach of this Agreement against WinVest or the Merger Subs if this Agreement is terminated and WinVest consummates a business

commences any action or proceeding against or involving the Trust Fund in violation of the foregoing, WinVest shall be entitled to recover
from the Company Signatories and their affiliates it has the power to bind the associated reasonable legal fees and costs in connection
with any such action if WinVest prevails in such action or proceeding. The Company Signatories agree and acknowledge that such irrevocable

and the Company Signatories further intend and understand such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against each Company Signatory
and each of its affiliates it has the power to bind under applicable Law. This Section 6.03 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement for any reason.

From the date of this Agreement until the Xtribe Merger Effective Time or the earlier termination of this Agreement, the Company Signatories
and WinVest shall (and shall cause their respective subsidiaries and instruct their respective Representatives to): (i) provide to the

collectively, “Representatives”) reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice

the foregoing, but without limiting the Company Signatories’ obligations under Section 7.07, neither the Company Signatories
nor WinVest shall be required to provide access to or disclose information to the extent such party has been advised by legal counsel
that the access or disclosure would (x) violate its obligations of confidentiality or similar legal restrictions with respect to such
information, (y) jeopardize the protection of attorney-client privilege or (z) contravene applicable Law (it being agreed that the parties
shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not result in such inconsistency,
conflict, jeopardy or contravention).
(b)
All information obtained by the parties pursuant to this Section 7.04 shall be kept confidential in accordance with that certain
Mutual Nondisclosure Agreement, dated October 20, 2022 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), between WinVest and
Xtribe PLC.
Section

From and after the Closing Date, the Surviving Company and WinVest shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each present
and former director, officer, employee, fiduciary and agent of the Company, WinVest or either Merger Sub (in each case, solely to the
extent acting in his or her capacity as such and to the extent such activities are related to the business of the Company, WinVest or
either Merger Sub, respectively) (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any Action, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing
Date, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing Date (each, a “Claim”), in accordance with
the Governing Documents of such person in effect on the Execution Date (including the advancing of expenses as incurred in accordance
with the applicable Governing Documents). After the Closing Date, in the event that any D&O Indemnified Party becomes involved in
any capacity in any Action based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, any matter, including the transactions
contemplated hereby, existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing Date, the D&O Indemnified Parties may retain, at their cost,
counsel reasonably satisfactory to them after consultation with the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall have the
right to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the D&O Indemnified Parties.
(b)
The Surviving Company shall purchase and have in place at the Closing a “tail” or “runoff” policy (the “D&O
Tail”) providing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for the benefit of those persons who
are covered by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, Xtribe PLC, WinVest or
either Merger Sub as of the Closing with respect to matters occurring prior to the Xtribe Merger Effective Time. The D&O Tail shall
provide for terms with respect to coverage, deductibles and amounts that are no less favorable than those of the policy in effect immediately

for the six-year period following the Closing.
(c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing (i) none of the Surviving Company or WinVest shall be obligated to indemnify a D&O Indemnified Party
with respect to any amount in relation to a Claim of any type whatsoever to the extent such Claim (or part thereof) has been paid to
the D&O Indemnified Party (or paid directly to a third party on a D&O Indemnified Party’s behalf) by any directors and
officers, or other type, of insurance maintained by the Surviving Company or WinVest, and (ii) no D&O Indemnified Party shall settle
any Claim without the prior written consent of the Surviving Company and WinVest (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed), nor shall the Surviving Company nor WinVest: (A) settle any Claim without either (x) the written consent of
all D&O Indemnified Parties against whom such Claim was made (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed),
or (y) obtaining an unconditional general release from all liability arising out of the proceeding to which the Claim relates for all
D&O Indemnified Parties without admission nor finding of wrongdoing as a condition of such settlement, or (B) be liable to a D&O
Indemnified Party for any amounts paid in settlement of any threatened or pending Claim effected without its prior written consent (which
consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
Section

The Company Signatories shall give prompt written notice to WinVest, and WinVest shall give prompt notice to the Company, of any event
which a party becomes aware of between the date of this Agreement and the Closing (or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance
with Article IX), the occurrence, or non-occurrence of which causes or would reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions
set forth in Article VIII to fail.
(b)
No notification given by either Company Signatory under this Section 7.07 shall limit or otherwise affect any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or obligations of the Company Signatories contained in this Agreement.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to take,
or cause to be taken, appropriate action, and to do, or cause to be done, such things as are necessary, proper or advisable under applicable
Laws or otherwise to consummate and make effective the Transactions as promptly as practicable, including, without limitation, using
its reasonable best efforts to obtain all permits, consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders of Governmental Authorities
and parties to contracts with each Group Company necessary for the consummation of the Transactions and to fulfill the conditions to
the Xtribe Merger. In case, at any time after the Xtribe Merger Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry
out the purposes of this Agreement, the proper officers and directors of each party shall use their reasonable best efforts to take all
such action.
(b)
Each of the parties shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the Transactions, including promptly notifying
the other parties of any communication it or any of its affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that
are the subject of this Agreement and permitting the other parties to review in advance, and to the extent practicable consult about,
any proposed communication by such party to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions. No party to this Agreement
shall agree to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless
it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the
opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the parties will coordinate
and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other parties may reasonably
request in connection with the foregoing. Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the parties will provide each other
with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications, including any documents, information and data contained therewith,
between them or any of their Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand,
with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby. No party shall take or cause to be taken any action before any
Governmental Authority that is inconsistent with or intended to delay its action on requests for a consent or the consummation of the
Transactions.
Section
7.09 Public Announcements. The initial press release relating to this Agreement shall be a joint press release the text of
which has been agreed to by each of WinVest and the Company. Thereafter, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date (or
the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article IX) unless otherwise prohibited by applicable Law or the
requirements of the Nasdaq, each of WinVest and the Company Signatories shall each use its reasonable best efforts to consult with each
other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Xtribe Merger or
any of the other Transactions, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior written
consent of the other party; provided, however, that each of WinVest and any Company Signatory may make any such announcement
or other communication (a) if such announcement or other communication is required by applicable Law or the rules of Nasdaq, in which
case the disclosing party shall first allow the other party to review such announcement or communication and the opportunity to comment
thereon and the disclosing party shall consider such comments in good faith, (b) to the extent such announcements or other communications
contain only information previously disclosed in a public statement, press release or other communication previously approved in accordance
with this Section 7.09, and (c) to Governmental Authorities in connection with any consents, approvals and authorizations required
to be made under this Agreement or in connection with the Transactions. Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section 7.09 shall
prevent WinVest or the Company Signatories and/or its respective affiliates from furnishing customary or other reasonable information
concerning the Transactions to their investors and prospective investors.
Section
7.10 Tax Matters. WinVest and the Company intend that, for United States federal income Tax purposes, the Pre-Closing Reorganization
and the Mergers will each qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury
Regulations to which each of WinVest, the Merger Subs and the Company, in the case of the Mergers, and the Company and Xtribe PLC, in
the case of the Pre-Closing Reorganization are to be parties under Section 368(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and this Agreement
and the Contribution and Reorganization Agreement are each intended to be, and each is adopted as, a plan of reorganization for purposes
of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code and within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g). Neither Xtribe PLC, the Company
nor WinVest knows of any fact or circumstance, or has taken or will take any action (or fail to act), if such fact, circumstance or action
(or failure to act) would be reasonably expected to cause the Pre-Closing Reorganization or the Mergers to fail to qualify, in each case,
as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. The Pre-Closing Reorganization and
the Mergers shall be reported by the parties for all Tax purposes in accordance with the foregoing, unless otherwise required by a Governmental
Authority as a result of a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. The parties shall cooperate
with each other and their respective counsel to document and support the Tax treatment of the Pre-Closing Reorganization and the Mergers
each as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, including providing factual support letters.
Section
7.11 Stock Exchange Listing. WinVest will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Closing Stock Consideration, the
Xtribe Financing Stock Consideration and any WinVest Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Earnout Rights issued or issuable pursuant
to this Agreement to be approved for listing on the Nasdaq as promptly as practicable following the date hereof, subject to official
notice of issuance prior to the Closing Date. During the period from the date hereof until the Closing, WinVest shall use its reasonable
best efforts to keep the WinVest Common Stock listed for trading on Nasdaq.

presented as if the Pre-Closing Reorganization had occurred as of the earliest period presented therein, (B) prepared in accordance with

by the rules and regulations of the SEC governing the Registration Statement (the “Company Unaudited Financials”),
in each case, with such Company Unaudited Financials (A) reviewed by the Company’s independent auditor in accordance with AS 4105
Reviews of Interim Financial Information and without qualification, (B) prepared with all periods presented as if the Pre-Closing
Reorganization had occurred as of the earliest period presented therein, and (C) prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent
basis throughout the covered periods and Regulation S-X, and (iii) any unaudited pro forma financial statements required by Regulation
S-X of the SEC to be included in the Registration Statement (the “Pro Forma Financials” and, together with
the Company Audited Financials and the Company Unaudited Financials, the “Required Financials”) not later than
thirty (30) days from the date hereof, and (b) make any necessary amendments, restatements or revisions to the Required Financials such
that they remain compliant through the date of completion of the offering pursuant to the Registration Statement and completion of the
WinVest PIPE Investments.

(g)
by the Company upon a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of WinVest and the Merger Subs set forth

that the conditions set forth in Sections 8.03(a) and 8.03(b) would not be satisfied (“Terminating WinVest
Breach”); provided that the Company has not waived such Terminating WinVest Breach and no Company Signatory is then
in material breach of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement; provided, however,
that, if such Terminating WinVest Breach is curable by WinVest and the Merger Subs, the Company may not terminate this Agreement under
this Section 9.01(g) for so long as WinVest and the Merger Subs continue to exercise their reasonable efforts to cure such breach,
unless such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice of such breach is provided by the Company to WinVest; or

effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party.
Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually
acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
Section
10.04 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, together with the Confidentiality Agreement,
constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings,

and with respect to their respective properties for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by

herein. Each of the parties further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the parties
further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and
agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement

waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the Transactions,
as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 10.07.

shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Section

not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, and, accordingly, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to

to which they are entitled at law or in equity as expressly permitted in this Agreement. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a)

(e)
None of the execution or delivery by the Sponsor of this Agreement nor any Ancillary Document to which it is or will be a party, the

as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a WinVest Material Adverse Effect.
(f)
As of the date of this Agreement, there is no Proceeding or Order pending, or to the knowledge of the Sponsor, threatened against or
involving the Sponsor that questions the beneficial or record ownership of the Sponsor Shares or Sponsor Warrants, the validity of this
Agreement or that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the performance by the Sponsor of its obligations under this Agreement
in any material respect.
(g)

of any shares of WinVest Common Stock, WinVest Warrants or other equity securities of WinVest prior to the Closing, (c) Sponsor acquires
the right to vote or share in the voting of any shares of WinVest Common Stock or other equity securities of WinVest during the period
between the date hereof and Closing (WinVest Common Stock, WinVest Warrants or other equity securities of WinVest, collectively the “New

to the same extent as if they constituted the Sponsor Shares or Sponsor Warrants owned by the Sponsor as of the date hereof.
8.
Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct
or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing signed by the Sponsor, WinVest and Xtribe PLC (or, after the Sale, the Company).

or privilege. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
which they would otherwise have hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such waiver shall be valid only if set

11.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties
hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
12.
No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The Sponsor hereby agrees that its representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are
solely for the benefit of WinVest, Xtribe PLC and the Company in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and this
Agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person other than the Company and the parties hereto any rights or remedies
hereunder, including, without limitation, the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, and the parties
hereto hereby further agree that this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any action that may be based upon, arise out of or
relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against, the persons expressly
named as parties hereto.
13.
Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement
or the Transactions, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to
any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause
the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.
14.
Assignment; Successors. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by
any of the parties hereto in whole or in part (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other
party, and any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided that Sponsor and WinVest hereby consent to the assignment
of this Agreement by Xtribe PLC to the Company in connection with the Contribution and other transactions contemplated thereby. This
Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and
permitted assigns.
15.
Specific Performance. Each party agrees that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an
adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement
(including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the Transactions) in accordance with their specific
terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that the party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions,
specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions
of this Agreement, in each case, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages and this being in addition to any
other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction,
specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the
other parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or
equity.
16.
Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable Law, but if any term or other provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under
applicable Law, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance
of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision
of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable Law, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this
Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the Transactions
are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
17.
Counterparts. This Agreement and each Ancillary Document (including any of the closing deliverables contemplated hereby) may be
executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement or any Ancillary Document (including any of the closing deliverables
contemplated hereby) by e-mail, or scanned pages shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement
or any such Ancillary Document.
18.
Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest of (a) the Closing of the Mergers, (b) the termination of the Business
Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, and (c) the time this Agreement is terminated upon the mutual written agreement of
WinVest, Xtribe PLC (or, after the Sale, the Company) and the Sponsor, provided that (1) no such termination shall relieve any party
of any liability for Fraud; (2) Sections 8 (Amendment and Modification) through this Section 18 (Termination),
shall survive any such termination.

WinVest regarding the manner in which the Holders are bound hereunder, in their capacity as equityholders of Xtribe PLC and the Company,
to vote the Securities during the period from and including the date hereof through and including the date on which this Agreement is
terminated in accordance with its terms (the “Voting Period”) with respect to the Transactions.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, which are incorporated in this Agreement as if fully set forth below,
and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1.
Covenant to Vote in Favor of the Transactions. Each Holder unconditionally and irrevocably agrees, with respect to all of
the Securities, during the Voting Period, such Holder will:
(a)
at each meeting of the equityholders of Xtribe PLC and for the Company, and in each written consent or resolutions of Xtribe PLC or the
Company in which such Holder is entitled to vote or consent, be present for such meeting and vote (in person or by proxy), or consent

and execution of the MIPA, (ii) the adoption and approval of the Sale, (iii) the adoption and approval of the Contribution Agreement,
(iv) the adoption and approval of the Contribution, (v) the adoption and approval of the Mergers, and (vi) and such other matters as

to effect each Holders portion of the Transactions, and (B) to vote the Securities in opposition to any other action or proposal involving
WinVest that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect in
any material respect the Transactions or would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions to the Closing under the Business
Combination Agreement or the Transactions not being fulfilled; and
(b)
execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Transactions as shall reasonably be requested
by Xtribe PLC (or following the Sale, the Company) or WinVest in order to carry out the terms and provisions of this Section 1.
2.
Other Covenants.
(a)
No Transfers. Other than as expressly permitted under the Business Combination Agreement and the accompanying disclosure schedules
attached thereto (the “Company Disclosure Schedules”), each Holder agrees that during the Voting Period it
shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, without the joint written consent of WinVest and Xtribe PLC, (i) offer for sale, sell
(including short sales), transfer, tender, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of (including by gift) (collectively, a “Transfer”),
or enter into any contract, option, derivative, hedging or other agreement or arrangement or understanding (including any profit-sharing
arrangement) with respect to, or consent to, a Transfer of, any or all of the Securities; (ii) grant any proxies or powers of attorney
with respect to any or all of the Securities; (iii) permit to exist any lien of any nature whatsoever (other than those imposed by this
Agreement or applicable securities Laws), with respect to any or all of the Securities; or (iv) take any action that would have the effect
of preventing, impeding, interfering with or adversely affecting any Holder’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
Each Holder agrees with, and covenants to, Xtribe PLC and WinVest that such Holder shall not request that Xtribe PLC register the Transfer
(book-entry or otherwise) of any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any Securities during the term of this Agreement
without the prior written consent of Xtribe PLC.
(b)
Permitted Transfers. Section 2(a) shall not prohibit a Transfer of Securities by any Holder (i) to any family member or
trust for the benefit of any family member, (ii) to any shareholder, member or partner of such Holder, if an entity, (iii) to any Affiliate
of such Holder, (iv) to any person or entity if and to the extent required by any non-consensual Order, by divorce decree or by will,
intestacy or other similar applicable Law, (v) as set forth on Schedule 6.01(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedules, or (vi) to any exchange
or conversion of Securities, so long as, in the case of the foregoing clauses (i)-(v), the assignee or transferee agrees to be bound
by the terms of this Agreement and executes and delivers to the parties hereto a written consent and joinder memorializing such agreement.
(c)
Changes to Securities. In the event of a share dividend or distribution, or any change in the share capital of Xtribe PLC by reason
of any share dividend or distribution, share split, recapitalization (including the interests of the Company received in the Transactions),
reorganization combination, conversion, exchange of shares or the like, the term “Securities” shall be deemed
to refer to and include the Securities as well as all such share dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which
any or all of the Securities may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such Transaction. Each Holder agrees, during the Voting
Period, to notify Xtribe PLC and WinVest promptly in writing of any changes in such Holder’s ownership of the Securities.
(d)
Compliance with this Agreement. Each Holder agrees that, during the Voting Period, such Holder will not take or agree or commit
to take any action that would make any representation and warranty of such Holder contained in this Agreement inaccurate in any material
respect, except for transfers as permitted by, and in accordance with, Section 2(b) above.
(e)
Registration Statement. During the Voting Period, each Holder agrees to provide to Xtribe PLC, WinVest and their respective Representatives
any information regarding such Holder or the Securities that is reasonably requested by Xtribe PLC, WinVest or their respective Representatives
for inclusion in a Registration Statement on Form S-4.
(f)
Publicity. No Holder shall issue any press release or otherwise make any public statements with respect to the Business Combination
Agreement, the Transactions or the transactions contemplated herein without the prior written approval of WinVest and Xtribe PLC, unless
such information was already made available publicly by WinVest or Xtribe PLC. Nothing herein shall (a) restrict any Holder’s right
to furnish or disclose to its limited partners, members or shareholders, any information with respect to the Transactions or the transactions
contemplated herein or (b) grant any Holder any right to disclose information which Holder is prohibited from disclosing pursuant to
a non-disclosure agreement. Each Holder understands that, prior to the announcement by WinVest and Xtribe PLC, the Contribution Agreement,
the MIPA and related agreements and the terms thereof constitute material non-public information and may not be used or disclosed by
such Holder. Each Holder hereby authorizes WinVest and Xtribe PLC to publish and disclose in any announcement or disclosure required
by the SEC or Nasdaq (including all documents and schedules filed with the SEC in connection with the foregoing), such Holder’s
identity and ownership of the Securities and the nature of such Holder’s commitments and agreements under this Agreement, the Contribution
Agreement and the MIPA.
3.

extent set forth in a schedule delivered by the Holders to Xtribe PLC and WinVest prior to the execution by the Holders of this Agreement:

existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and (B) has all necessary power and authority to execute and deliver
this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. If any Holder is not a natural
person, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby by such Holder has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability or partnership action on the
part of such Holder, as applicable. This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto,
constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Holder, enforceable against each Holder in accordance with its terms (except
as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws
of general applicability relating to or affecting creditor’s rights, and to general equitable principles). Each Holder understands
and acknowledges that Xtribe PLC and WinVest are entering into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance upon the execution and
delivery of this Agreement by each Holder.
(b)
Ownership of Securities. As of the date hereof, each Holder has beneficial ownership over the type and number of the Securities
set forth under such Holder’s name on the signature page hereto, is the lawful owner of such Securities, has the sole power to
vote or cause to be voted such Securities, and has good and valid title to such Securities, free and clear of any and all pledges, mortgages,
encumbrances, charges, proxies, voting agreements, liens, adverse claims, options, security interests and demands of any nature or kind
whatsoever, other than those imposed by this Agreement, applicable securities Laws, as in effect on the date hereof. Except for the Securities
set forth under each Holder’s name on the signature page hereto, as of the date of this Agreement, no Holder is a beneficial owner
or record holder of any other: (i) equity securities of Xtribe PLC, (ii) securities of Xtribe PLC having the right to vote on any matters
on which the holders of equity securities of Xtribe PLC may vote or which are convertible into or exchangeable for, at any time, equity
securities of Xtribe PLC or (iii) options, warrants or other rights to acquire from Xtribe PLC any equity securities or securities convertible
into or exchangeable for equity securities of Xtribe PLC.
(c)
No Conflicts. Other than the filings, notices and reports pursuant to, in compliance with or required to be made under the Exchange
Act, if any, no filing with, or notification to, any Governmental Authority, and no consent, approval, authorization or permit of any
other person is necessary for the execution of this Agreement by any Holder, the performance of its obligations hereunder or the consummation
by it of the transactions contemplated hereby, which, if required, has not been obtained prior to the date hereof. None of the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by any Holder, the performance of its obligations hereunder or the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated hereby shall (i) conflict with or result in any breach of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other comparable organizational
documents of any Holder, if applicable, (ii) result in, or give rise to, a violation or breach of or a default under any of the terms
of any Contract or obligation to which any Holder is a party or by which any Holder or any of the Securities or its other assets may
be bound, or (iii) violate any applicable Law or Order, except for any of the foregoing in clauses (i) through (iii) as would not reasonably
be expected to impair a Holder’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.
(d)
No Inconsistent Agreements. Each Holder hereby covenants and agrees that, except for this Agreement, such Holder (i) has not entered
into, nor will such Holder enter into at any time while this Agreement remains in effect, any voting agreement or voting trust with respect
to the Securities inconsistent with such Holder’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) has not granted, nor will grant
at any time while this Agreement remains in effect, a proxy, a consent or power of attorney with respect to the Securities and (iii)
has not entered into any agreement or knowingly taken any action (nor will enter into any agreement or knowingly take any action) that
would make any representation or warranty of such Holder contained herein untrue or incorrect in any material respect or have the effect
of preventing such Holder from performing any of its material obligations under this Agreement.
4.
Miscellaneous.
(a)
Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall automatically terminate, and none
of Xtribe PLC, WinVest or the Holders shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, upon the earliest to occur of (i) the mutual written

of the parties hereunder required to be performed at or prior to the effective time of the WinVest Merger), (iii) the date of termination

Combination Agreement or any waiver of any provision of the Business Combination Agreement which amendment or waiver is adverse to any
Holder in a manner disproportionate to the other Holders as a whole. The termination of this Agreement shall not prevent any party hereunder
from seeking any remedies (at law or in equity) against another party hereto or relieve such party from liability for such party’s
material breach of, or fraud committed in connection with, this Agreement prior to such termination. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, the provisions of this Section 4(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(b)
Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Except for transfers as permitted by, and in accordance with,
Section 2(b) above, this Agreement and all obligations of the Holders are personal to the Holders and may not be assigned, transferred
or delegated by any Holder at any time without the prior written consent of Xtribe PLC and WinVest, and any purported assignment, transfer
or delegation without such consent shall be null and void ab initio.
(c)
Third Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any instrument or document executed by any party in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby shall create any rights in, or be deemed to have been executed for the benefit of, any person that is
not a party hereto or thereto or a successor or permitted assign of such a party.
(d)
Governing Law; Jurisdiction. Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby may be brought in federal and state courts located in the State of Delaware, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits
to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction,
venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court,
and agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other
court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any manner permitted by Law
or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party hereto in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce
judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant to this Section 4(d).
(e)
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT
IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY
OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS
IN THIS SECTION 4(E).

(h)
Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived
(either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only, in the case of an amendment, with the
written consent of Xtribe PLC, WinVest and the Holders, or, in the case of a waiver, with the written consent of the party against whom
the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No
waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be
or construed as a waiver of any other provisions hereof by such party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed to be or construed as a further
or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision.
(i)
Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such
provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal
and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction,
so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to
any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties will
substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be
valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
(j)
Specific Performance. Each Holder acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that
in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Holder, money damages will be inadequate and that Xtribe PLC and WinVest will not have
adequate remedy at law, and agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were
not performed by any Holder in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, Xtribe PLC and WinVest shall
be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement by any Holder and to enforce specifically the
terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate,
this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.
(k)
Expenses. Each party shall be responsible for its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of investment bankers,
accountants and counsel, if applicable) in connection with the entering into of this Agreement, the performance of its obligations hereunder
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that in the event of any Action arising out of or relating to
this Agreement, the non-prevailing party in any such Action will pay its own expenses and the reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, reasonably incurred by the prevailing party.
(l)
No Partnership, Agency or Joint Venture. This Agreement is intended to create a contractual relationship among the Holders, WinVest
and Xtribe PLC, and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership, joint venture or any like relationship among
the parties hereto or among any other Holders entering into voting agreements with WinVest or Xtribe PLC. Each Holder has acted independently
regarding its decision to enter into this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in WinVest or Xtribe
PLC any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Securities. All rights, ownership and economic
benefits of each Holder in and relating to the Securities of such Holder shall remain vested in and belong to the applicable Holder,
and WinVest shall have no authority to manage, direct, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any of the policies or operations of
Xtribe PLC or exercise any power or authority to direct such Holder in the voting or disposition of any of the Securities, except as
otherwise provided herein.
(m)
Further Assurances. From time to time, at another party’s request and without further consideration, each party shall execute
and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(n)
Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Business Combination Agreement to the extent referred to herein) constitutes
the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or
oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled; provided, that, for the
avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Business Combination Agreement
or any Transaction Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies of
WinVest or Xtribe PLC or any of the obligations of any Holder under any other agreement between such Holder and WinVest or Xtribe PLC
or any certificate or instrument executed by any Holder in favor of WinVest or Xtribe PLC, and nothing in any other agreement, certificate
or instrument shall limit any of the rights or remedies of WinVest or Xtribe PLC or any of the obligations of any Holder under this Agreement.
(o)
Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may also be executed and delivered by facsimile or electronic signature or by email in
portable document format in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.
(p)
Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related
to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties
hereto, and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a named
party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement), (a)
no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, shareholder, affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor
or representative or affiliate of any named party to this Agreement and (b) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator,
member, partner, shareholder, affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any
liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements
or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of WinVest, Xtribe PLC or the Holders under this Agreement of or for any claim
based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby provided that such other person does not
take or direct or cause the Holder to take any action in contravention of the Holders’ obligations under this Agreement.

FORM
OF LOCK-UP AGREEMENT
THIS
LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of ______, 2024, by and among WinVest Acquisition Corp., a
Delaware corporation (“Acquiror”), and each of the Company Stockholders identified on the signature pages hereto
(collectively, the “Stockholder Parties”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings given such terms in the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below).
BACKGROUND
A. Acquiror,
WinVest Merger Sub I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub I”), WinVest Merger Sub II, LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub II”), Xtribe P.L.C., a public limited company incorporated
and registered in England and Wales with number 07878011 (“Xtribe PLC”), and Xtribe Group, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Xtribe PLC (the “Company”) entered into a Business
Combination Agreement dated as of May 9, 2024 (the “Business Combination Agreement”).
B. Pursuant
to the Business Combination Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub
I will merge with and into the Company (the “Xtribe Merger”), with the Company surviving the Xtribe Merger
as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Acquiror (the Company, in its capacity as the surviving company of the Xtribe Merger, is sometimes
referred to herein as the “Interim Surviving Company”), and promptly following the consummation of the Xtribe
Merger, the Interim Surviving Company will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Forward Merger”), whereupon
the separate existence of the Interim Surviving Company will cease and Merger Sub II will be the surviving entity of the Forward Merger
and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of WinVest (the “Surviving Company”).
C. The
Stockholder Parties are the record and/or beneficial owners of equity securities, as of the date hereof, of Xtribe PLC and, following
the consummation of the Pre-Closing Reorganization, of the Company, which will be exchanged for common stock and other equity securities
of the Acquiror pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement.
D. As
a condition of, and as a material inducement for the Acquiror to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business
Combination Agreement, the Stockholder Parties have agreed to execute and deliver this Agreement.
NOW,
THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
(a) Except
as permitted by Section 1(e) of this Agreement, effective upon the occurrence of the Closing, during the Lock-up Period (as defined below),
each Stockholder Party irrevocably agrees that it, he or she will not (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate,
pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or enter into any agreement to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish
or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder, in each case with respect to any Lock-up Shares (as defined below) that are beneficially
owned or owned of record by such Stockholder Party, (ii) enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers to another, in
whole in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Lock-up Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by
delivery of any Lock-up Shares, in cash or otherwise, or engage in any Short Sales (as defined below), in each case with respect to any
Lock-up Shares that are beneficially owned or owned of record by such Stockholder Party, or (iii) publicly disclose the intention to
effect any transaction specified in clauses (i) or (ii).
(b) In
furtherance of the foregoing, Acquiror will (i) place an irrevocable stop order on all Lock-up Shares, including those which may be covered
by a registration statement, and (ii) notify Acquiror’s transfer agent in writing of the stop order and the restrictions on such
Lock-up Shares under this Agreement and direct Acquiror’s transfer agent not to process any attempts by a Stockholder Party to
resell or transfer any Lock-up Shares, except in compliance with Section 1(e) or the other provisions of this Agreement.
(c) For
purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule
200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts,
options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US
broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.
(d) For
purpose of this Agreement, the “Lock-up Period” means the earlier of (i) the date that is six (6) months from
the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which the closing price of Acquiror Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for
stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) consecutive
trading day period commencing on the Closing Date, and (iii) the date specified in a written waiver of the provisions of this Agreement
duly executed after the Closing by the Sponsor and the Acquiror.
(e) The
restrictions set forth in this Agreement shall not apply to: (1) in the case of Stockholder Party that is an entity, as part of a distribution
to a Stockholder Party’s current or former general or limited partners, managers or members, stockholders, other equity holders
or direct or indirect affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”)) or to the estates of any of the foregoing; (2) transfers to a member of a Stockholder Party’s immediate family
or to a trust for estate planning purposes; (3) transfers by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of a Stockholder
Party; (4) transfers pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (5) transfers to another Stockholder Party or the Acquiror’s
officers, directors, advisors and employees, or (6) transfers or distributions of, or other transactions involving, securities other
than the Lock-up Shares (including, without limitation, securities acquired in a WinVest PIPE Investment or an Xtribe Private Placement
Investment; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (1) through (5), such permitted transferees must enter into
a written agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement (it being understood that any references to “immediate
family” in the agreement executed by such transferee shall expressly refer only to the immediate family of the Stockholder Party
and not to the immediate family of the transferee). For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean a spouse,
domestic partner, child (including by adoption), father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned, and lineal descendant (including
by adoption) of the undersigned or of any of the foregoing persons; and “affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule
405 under the Securities Act.
In
addition, the restrictions set forth in this Agreement shall not apply to any bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation,
business combination, stock purchase or other similar transaction or series of related transactions after the Closing Date, if such transaction
or transactions would result in a Change of Control; provided that, in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation,
business combination, stock purchase or other similar transaction or series of related transactions is not completed, the Lock-up Shares
shall remain subject to the restrictions set forth herein. A “Change of Control” means (whether by tender offer,
merger, consolidation, asset sale or other similar transaction, whether in one or a series of related transactions) that results in:
(a) any person or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) acquiring, directly or indirectly,
beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of Acquiror (or any successor to Acquiror) immediately following
such transaction, provided that any transaction or series of related transactions which results in at least 50% of the combined
voting power of the then outstanding shares of Acquiror Common Stock (or at least 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding
shares of any successor to Acquiror or any parent company of Acquiror issued in exchange for Acquiror Common Stock) immediately following
the closing of such transaction (or series of related transactions) being beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by individuals
and entities who were the beneficial owners of at least 50% of the shares of Acquiror Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
transaction (or series of related transactions), shall not be deemed a “Change of Control” or (b) a sale or disposition of
all or substantially all of the assets of Acquiror (or any successor to Acquiror) and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
2. | Representations
and Warranties. Each of the parties hereto, by their respective execution and delivery
of this Agreement, hereby represents and warrants to the other parties to this Agreement
that (a) such party has the full right, capacity and authority to enter into, deliver and
perform his, her or its respective obligations under this Agreement, (b) this Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by such party and is the binding and enforceable obligation
of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,

Agreement will not conflict with or breach the terms of any other agreement, contract, commitment
or understanding to which such party is a party or to which the assets or securities of such
party are bound. |
3. | Beneficial
Ownership. Each Stockholder Party hereby represents and warrants that it does not beneficially
own, directly or through its nominees (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder), any shares of capital
stock or other securities of Acquiror, or any economic interest in or derivative of such
stock or securities or interest convertible or exercisable into shares of capital stock or
other securities of Acquiror, other than those securities that such Stockholder Party will
receive as consideration in the Transactions pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Business Combination
Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Aggregate Merger Consideration received by
each Stockholder Party as consideration in the Transactions pursuant to Section 3.01 of the
Business Combination Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Lock-up Shares.” |
4. | No
Additional Fees/Payment. The parties hereto agree that no fee, payment or additional
consideration in any form has been or will be paid to the Stockholder Parties in connection
with this Agreement. |
5. | Notices.

Xtribe,
Technology-driven Geolocation-based Commerce Platform, to Go Public on Nasdaq through Proposed Business Combination with WinVest Acquisition
Corp. (NASDAQ: WINV)
London,
UK; Cambridge, MA – May 9, 2024 – Xtribe P.L.C. (“Xtribe”), a technology-driven platform that matches sellers
of goods and services with local buyers, and WinVest Acquisition Corp. (“WinVest”) (NASDAQ: WINV), a publicly traded special
purpose acquisition company, today announced that they have entered into a definitive business combination agreement (the “Business
Combination Agreement”) with respect to a proposed business combination that is expected to result in the combined company becoming
publicly listed on Nasdaq upon the closing of the transaction (the “Proposed Transaction”). Upon closing, the combined company
will be renamed “Xtribe Holdings Limited”.
Xtribe’s
platform is designed to enable individuals and businesses to easily trade goods and services either online or in-person by creating a
virtual marketplace where users can discover, buy, and sell a wide range of products. With a focus on convenience and accessibility,
Xtribe leverages advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence and data analytics, to enhance the user experience. The platform
offers features like personalized recommendations and real-time messaging to ensure efficient and secure transactions for both buyers
and sellers. Xtribe seeks to empower small and medium-sized enterprises (“SMEs”) by providing them with simple and easy access
to a digital presence in order to attract new customers. Xtribe also aims to support cities, towns, and neighborhoods by building local,
loyal connections between buyers and sellers who want to interact face to face.
Enrico
Dal Monte, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Xtribe, commented, “We are grateful for WinVest’s commitment to our vision
to change the face of e-commerce. As a listed company following the Proposed Transaction, we believe we will be able to play a leading
role in the evolving global retail landscape, leveraging digital innovation with the intent to drive sales and make new connections for
traditional retailers and consumers.”
Manish
Jhunjhunwala, Chief Executive Officer of WinVest, said “WinVest is excited to provide a launchpad for Xtribe in the US market with
a public listing. Xtribe’s goal to drive business for SMEs is inspiring, and we look forward to working with their team to drive
this deal to close.”
Key
Transaction Terms
The
Business Combination Agreement values Xtribe at an implied equity value of approximately $141 million, assuming no redemption by WinVest’s
existing public stockholders and subject to adjustment that may include additional investments in Xtribe or WinVest prior to the closing
of the Proposed Transaction). Additional earnout shares may be issuable to Xtribe stockholders over time, upon achievement of certain
trading price-based and/or profitability targets.
After
the closing, Xtribe shareholders are expected to retain a majority of the outstanding shares of the combined company, and Xtribe would
have the right to designate a majority of the initial proposed directors for the combined company’s board.
The
Xtribe management team, led by founder Enrico Dal Monte, will manage the combined company after the closing of the Proposed Transaction.
The
boards of directors of both Xtribe and WinVest have approved the Proposed Transaction, which is expected to be completed in late 2024,
subject to, among other things, approval by WinVest’s and Xtribe’s respective shareholders, and satisfaction (or waiver,
as applicable) of the conditions provided in the Business Combination Agreement, including regulatory approvals and other customary closing
conditions, including a registration statement in connection with the Proposed Transaction being declared effective by the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

due to the Proposed Transaction; (vi) the risk that any announcements relating to the Proposed Transaction could have adverse effects

A
further list and description of risks and uncertainties can be found in WinVest’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 15, 2024 (the “2023 Form 10-K”) and in the Registration Statement that
will be filed with the SEC by WinVest in connection with the Proposed Transaction, and other documents that the parties may file or furnish
with the SEC, which you are encouraged to read. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
