Correct spelling, explanation: the base form of exited is exit and it is a word of Latin origin. In fact, exited derives from two Latin words, which are ex and ire. The former meant out while the latter means go. Together they formed the words exit and exitus, which could be translated as to go out. Exited entered English in the 16th century and has been a widely used verb since then.

Incorrect spelling, explanation: exited is quite unusual when it comes to spelling as in most cases when a verb ends with a consonant that is preceded with a vowel, we should double the consonant.
