Regulation FD Disclosure.

On July 2, 2024, Focus Impact BH3 Acquisition Company (the “Company”) filed a definitive proxy statement, as supplemented (the “Extension Proxy Statement”), for a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, to (i) extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination (the “Termination Date”) from July 31, 2024 to February 7, 2025 (the “Charter Extension Date”) and to allow the Company, without the need for another stockholder vote, to elect to further extend the Termination Date on a monthly basis for up to two times, by an additional one month each time, after the Charter Extension Date, by resolution of the Company’s board of directors, if requested by Focus Impact BHAC Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”) and (ii) eliminate the limitation that the Company may not redeem public stock to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”).

The Company and Focus Impact BH3 NewCo, Inc. (“NewCo”) intend to enter into non-redemption agreements (the “Non-Redemption Agreements”) with certain stockholders of the Company pursuant to which, if such stockholders do not redeem (or validly rescind any redemption requests on) their shares of Class A common stock of the Company (the “Non-Redeemed Shares”) in connection with the Special Meeting, and such stockholders continue to hold such Non-Redeemed Shares through the Special Meeting, NewCo will agree to issue to such stockholders, for no additional consideration, shares of Class A common stock of NewCo immediately following the consummation of the initial business combination between the Company, NewCo and XCF Global Capital, Inc., at a ratio to be negotiated between the parties to the Non-Redemption Agreements.

The Non-Redemption Agreements are not expected to increase the likelihood that the Extension Amendment Proposal or the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal are approved by stockholders but are expected to increase the amount of funds that remain in the Company’s trust account following the Special Meeting. The Non-Redemption Agreements will not affect the rights of stockholders party to such agreements to effect a redemption of their Class A common Stock of the Company in connection with the consummation of the Company's initial business combination.

NO ASSURANCES ARE MADE THAT A NON-REDEMPTION INCENTIVE OF ANY KIND WILL BE OFFERED AND THE ACTUAL TERMS OF ANY NON-REDEMPTION INCENTIVE MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE TERMS DESCRIBED HEREIN.

The foregoing description of the form of Non-Redemption Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Non-Redemption Agreement filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

The Extension Proxy Statement was mailed to the Company’s stockholders of record on or about July 1, 2024. Investors and security holders of the Company are advised to read the Extension Proxy Statement because it contains important information about the Special Meeting and the Company. Investors and security holders of the Company may also obtain a copy of the Extension Proxy Statement, as well as other relevant documents that have been or will be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), without charge and once available, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: Focus Impact BH3 Acquisition Company, 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 33^rd Floor, New York, NY 10105.

Participants in the Solicitation

The Company and certain of its directors and executive officers and other persons may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company’s stockholders in respect of the proposals to be considered and voted on at the Special Meeting. Information concerning the interests of the directors and executive officers of the Company is set forth in the Extension Proxy Statement, which may be obtained free of charge from the sources indicated above.

Exhibit 10.1

NON-REDEMPTION AGREEMENT

This Non-Redemption Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered as of July [●], 2024 by and among Focus Impact BH3 Acquisition Company (“BHAC”), Focus Impact BH3 NewCo, Inc. (“NewCo”) and the undersigned investors (collectively, the “Investor”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, BHAC expects to hold a special meeting of stockholders (the “Meeting”) for the purpose of approving, among other things, an amendment to BHAC’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “COI”) to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which BHAC must consummate an initial business combination (the “Initial Business Combination”) until February 7, 2025 (the “Initial Extension”) and to allow BHAC, without an additional stockholder vote, to further extend the Termination Date on a monthly basis for up to two times by an additional one month each time after February 7, 2025 (each one month extension, a “Monthly Extension”), by resolution of the board of directors of BHAC, unless the Closing of the Initial Business Combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “Extension”);

WHEREAS, the COI provides that a stockholder of BHAC may redeem its shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, initially sold as part of the units in BHAC’s initial public offering (whether they were purchased in our initial public offering or thereafter in the open market) (the “Public Shares”) in connection with the COI amendment, on the terms set forth in the COI (“Redemption Rights”);

WHEREAS, Investor is willing to not exercise its Redemption Rights in connection with the Extension, or to validly rescind any previously submitted redemption demand, of certain of the Public Shares held by such Investor upon the terms set forth herein.

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

1.	Non-Redemption and Share Issuance.

1.1.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, if (a) as of 5:30 PM, New York time, on the date of the Meeting, Investor holds the Investor Shares (as defined below), (b) Investor does not exercise (or exercised and validly rescinds) its Redemption Rights with respect to such Investor Shares in connection with the Meeting, (c) the Extension is approved at the Meeting and BHAC meets the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq following the Extension (including as a result of any redemptions of Public Shares in connection with the Extension being voted upon at the Meeting), and (d) BHAC implements the Extension, then NewCo hereby agrees to issue or cause to be issued, in connection with the Initial Extension and each Monthly Extension that shall occur prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, promptly (but in any event no later than two (2) business days following the closing of the Initial Business Combination) to Investor for no additional consideration, that number of shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share of NewCo (“NewCo Common Stock”) set forth opposite Investor’s name on Exhibit A (the “Promote Shares” and such issuance, the “Share Issuance”). “Investor Shares” shall mean an amount of the Public Shares presently held by Investor equal to the lesser of an aggregate amount of (i) [ ] Public Shares, and (ii) 9.9% of the Public Shares that are not to be redeemed, including those Public Shares subject to non-redemption agreements with other BHAC stockholders similar to this Agreement on or about the date of the Meeting. BHAC agrees to provide Investor with the final number of Investor Shares subject to this Agreement no later than 9:30 a.m. Eastern time on the first business day following the date of the Meeting (and in all cases a sufficient amount of time to allow the Investor to reverse any exercise of Redemption Rights with regard to any Investor Shares), provided, that such amount shall not exceed [ ] Public Shares.

1.2.

BHAC, NewCo and Investor hereby agree that the Share Issuance shall be subject to the condition that the Initial Business Combination is consummated.

Upon the satisfaction of the foregoing condition, NewCo shall promptly issue (but in any event no later than two (2) business days following the closing of the Initial Business Combination) the Promote Shares to Investor (or to such other accounts to whom Investor directs BHAC) free and clear of any liens or other encumbrances, other than pursuant to restrictions on transfer imposed by the Transfer Restrictions set forth in Section 1.7 and any applicable securities laws. BHAC covenants and agrees to facilitate the Share Issuance to Investor (or to such other accounts to whom Investor directs BHAC) in accordance with the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Investor shall be released with respect to the Transfer Restrictions set forth in Section 1.7 to the same extent as Focus Impact BHAC Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”) is released from such restrictions in the Sponsor Letter Agreement with respect to its Restricted Sponsor Shares (as defined in the Sponsor Letter Agreement).

1.3.

Adjustment to Share Amounts. If at any time the number of outstanding Public Shares is increased or decreased by a consolidation, combination, subdivision or reclassification of the Public Shares or other similar event (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share of BHAC into Public Shares or the redemption of Public Shares), then, as of the effective date of such consolidation, combination, subdivision, reclassification or similar event, all share numbers referenced in this Agreement shall be adjusted in proportion to such increase or decrease in the Public Shares.

1.4.

Forfeitures, Transfers, etc. Investor shall not be subject to forfeiture, surrender, claw-back, transfers, disposals, exchanges or earn-outs for any reason on the Promote Shares.

1.5.

Delivery of Shares; Other Documents. At the time of the Share Issuance, NewCo shall issue the Promote Shares to Investor in book-entry form through NewCo’s transfer agent. The parties to this Agreement agree to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

1.6.

Registration Rights. Concurrent with the delivery of Promote Shares to Investor under this Agreement, NewCo agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to submit to or file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), within sixty (60) calendar days after the consummation of the Initial Business Combination or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter (the “Filing Date”) (at NewCo’s sole cost and expense), a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”), registering the resale of the Promote Shares, which Registration Statement may include other shares of NewCo Common Stock and shares of NewCo Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, and NewCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”) as soon as practicable after the earlier of (i) the filing thereof, following the closing of the Initial Business Combination and (ii) the 10th business day after the date NewCo is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the “Effective Date”); provided, however, that NewCo’s obligations to include the Promote Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Investor furnishing in writing to NewCo such information regarding Investor, the securities of NewCo held by Investor and the intended method of disposition of the Promote Shares as shall be reasonably requested by NewCo to effect the registration of the Promote Shares, and Investor shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as NewCo may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that NewCo shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement during any customary blackout or similar period or as permitted hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents NewCo from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Promote Shares by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Promote Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Promote Shares as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Promote Shares to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. Upon notification by the Commission that the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, within two (2) business days thereafter, NewCo shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act. In no event shall Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission; provided, that if the Commission requests that Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. Investor shall not be entitled to use the Registration Statement for an underwritten offering of the Promote Shares. For purposes of clarification, any failure by NewCo to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effective Date shall not otherwise relieve NewCo of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 1.6.

1.7.

Transfer Restrictions. The transfer restrictions in Section 1.1(b) of that certain Sponsor Letter Agreement, dated March 11, 2024, by and among BHAC, NewCo and the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Letter Agreement”) or any successor or similar agreement entered into in connection with an Initial Business Combination, shall apply to the Promote Shares as if Investor was a party to the Sponsor Letter Agreement (the “Transfer Restrictions”)

1.8.

Termination. This Agreement and each of the obligations of the undersigned shall terminate on earlier of (a) the failure of BHAC’s stockholders to approve the Extension at the Meeting, (b) BHAC’s determination not to proceed with the Extension, (c) the fulfillment of all obligations of parties hereto, (d) the liquidation or dissolution of BHAC, (e) the mutual written agreement of the parties hereto, or (f) if Investor exercises its Redemption Rights with respect to any Investor Shares in connection with the Meeting and such Investors Shares are actually redeemed in connection with the Meeting. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, NewCo’s obligation to issue the Promote Shares to Investor shall be conditioned on (i) the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 1.2 and (ii) such Investor Shares not being redeemed in connection with the Meeting. This agreement and each of the obligations of NewCo shall terminate with respect to NewCo if the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) is terminated prior to consummation.

1.9.

Termination of Business Combination Agreement. If the Business Combination Agreement among BHAC, NewCo, BH3 Merger Sub 1, LLC, Focus Impact BH3 Merger Sub 2, Inc. and XCF Global Capital, Inc., dated March 11, 2024 (the “Business Combination Agreement”) is terminated, BHAC or any successor entity of BHAC agrees to effect the Share Issuance no later than two (2) business days following the closing of an Initial Business Combination with a different target company. To the extent that the business combination contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement is not consummated and BHAC completes an Initial Business Combination with a different target company, all references to NewCo in Sections 1.1, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 2.4.5, 7.1 and 13 will refer to BHAC or any successor entity of BHAC (the “Alternate Issuer”).

2.	Representations and Warranties of Investor. Investor represents and warrants to, and agrees with, BHAC and NewCo that:

2.1.

No Government Recommendation or Approval. Investor understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the offering of the Promote Shares.

Accredited Investor. Investor is an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act or a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and acknowledges that the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance, among other things, on a private placement exemption to “accredited investors” under the Securities Act and similar exemptions under state law.

2.3.

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

2.4.

Restrictions on Transfer; Restrictions on Lending; Trust Account; Redemption Rights.

2.4.1.

2.4.2.

Investor agrees that neither it, nor any person or entity acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, will allow the Investor Shares held by the Investor to be lent out or rehypothecated.

2.4.3.

Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Promote Shares are not entitled to, and have no right, interest or claim of any kind in or to, any monies held in the trust account into which the proceeds of BHAC’s initial public offering were deposited (the “Trust Account”) or distributed as a result of any liquidation of the Trust Account.

2.4.4.

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

2.4.5.

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

2.11.

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

2.12.

No Advice from BHAC or NewCo. Investor has had the opportunity to review this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with Investor’s own legal counsel and investment and tax advisors. Except for any statements or representations of BHAC or NewCo explicitly made in this Agreement, Investor is relying solely on such counsel and advisors and not on any statements or representations, express or implied, of BHAC, NewCo or any of their representatives or agents for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation for legal, tax or investment advice, with respect to this investment, BHAC, NewCo, the Promote Shares, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the securities laws of any jurisdiction.

2.14.

Most Favored Nation.
