GOODINTENT HOLDING LIMITED
 
$_____
December 17, 2009
   
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, GOODINTEND HOLDING LIMITED, a company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (the “Maker”), with offices at c/o China Golf Group, Room 213, Tower Crest, 3 Maizidian West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing China 100125, hereby promises to pay to _______ (the “Holder”), at _________ (or such other address as the Holder may designate), in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, the aggregate principal sum of _________ ($_________), on or before March 31, 2010 (the “Maturity Date”), by delivering written notice thereof to Maker; provided, however, that upon conversion of the principal due under this convertible promissory note (this “Note”) into shares of common stock of the Shell (the “Conversion Shares”) pursuant to Section 1 hereof, such conversion shall constitute the full discharge of this Note.  This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement dated as of December 17, 2009 (the "Purchase Agreement”) by and between the Maker and the Holder.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for such terms in the Purchase Agreement
 
1.           Conversion.
 
1.1           Automatic Conversion.  Upon the closing of the Share Exchange (the “Closing Date”), the entire outstanding principal amount of this Note shall automatically be converted into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of the Shell by dividing (i) the outstanding principal amount under the Note as of the Closing Date by (ii) $0.20 (the “Conversion Price”), subject to certain adjustments set forth herein.  The Maker shall cause the Shell to issue the Conversion Shares to the Holder upon the conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 1.1.
 
1.2           Conversion Mechanics. Conversion shall be effected by Holder’s surrender and delivery of this Note to Maker at its principal place of business.  In the event of any such conversion, this Note shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to be outstanding for any purpose.
 
1.3           Adjustments for Stock Splits and Combinations.  If the Shell shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, effect a stock split of the outstanding shares of the Shell’s common stock, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the stock split shall be proportionately decreased.  If the Share shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, combine the outstanding shares of the Shell’s common stock, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the combination shall be proportionately increased.  Any adjustments under this Section 1.3 shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock split or combination occurs.

1.4           Adjustment for Issuance of Additional Shares.  In the event that (i) the Maker shall at any time issue or sell any shares of the Maker’s capital stock or (ii) the Shell shall issue or sell any shares of the Shell’s common stock in a private placement transaction which occurs simultaneously with, or promptly following, the Share Exchange, each at a price per share less than the Conversion Price then in effect or without consideration, then the Conversion Price upon each such issuance shall be reduced to a price equal to the consideration per share paid for such shares.
 
1.5           Certain Issues Excepted.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Maker shall not be required to make any adjustment to the Conversion Price in connection with (i) securities issued in connection with bona fide strategic license agreements or other partnering arrangements, so long as such issuances are not made to an affiliate of, or related party to, the Company or made to any person for the purpose of raising capital or (ii) any warrants issued to a placement agent or its designees in connection with the Share Exchange.
 
2.           Events of Default; Acceleration.  If Maker fails to pay in full the principal amount outstanding on this Note on the Maturity Date (such event, an “Event of Default”), then to the extent permitted by law, the Maker shall pay interest to the Holder, payable on demand, on the outstanding principal balance of the Note from the date of the Event of Default until such Event of Default is cured or waived at the rate of the lesser of fifteen percent (15%) per annum and the maximum applicable legal rate per annum.
 
3.           Representations of the Holder.  The Holder hereby represents and warrants to Maker as follows:
 
3.1           Disclosure.  The Holder hereby confirms to Maker that it has been granted the opportunity to ask Maker questions concerning the issuance of this Note and the Conversion Shares and to obtain any additional information which it deems necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Note and the Conversion Shares.
 
3.2           Accredited Investor.  The Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).  The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its acquisition of this Note, and, upon conversion, if any, the Conversion Shares.
 
3.3           High Risk.  The Holder acknowledges that:
 
(a)           this Note and the Conversion Shares involve a high degree of risk, including the risk of loss of the Holder’s entire principal amount, and that this Note and the Conversion Shares are highly speculative investments;
 
(b)           the investment in this Note and the Conversion Shares is presently an illiquid investment and the Holder may be required to bear the economic risk of investment in this Note and the Conversion Shares for a substantial period of time;

3.4           Certain Representations.
 
(a)           The Holder is acquiring this Note and, upon conversion, if any, the Conversion Shares without being furnished any offering memorandum or prospectus, and the Holder has not been given any oral or other written representations or assurances by Maker or any representative of Maker in connection with the issuance by Maker of this Note to the Holder except for those representations contained herein.  The Holder acknowledges that no person has been authorized to give any information or make any representation other than as contained herein, and, if given or made, such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized by Maker or any person acting on its behalf.
 
(b)           The Holder is acquiring this Note and the Conversion Shares for investment purposes only, for its own account and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, the distribution or other disposition thereof in contravention of the Act or any U.S. state securities law, without prejudice, however, to the Holder’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws, or under an exemption from such registration available under the Act and other applicable U.S. state securities laws.
 
3.5           Restrictive Legend.  The Holder understands that the Conversion Shares may not be sold, transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (any such action, a “Transfer”) without registration under the Act or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Conversion Shares or an available exemption from registration under the Act, the Conversion Shares must be held indefinitely.  In particular, the Holder is aware that the Conversion Shares may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Act unless all of the conditions of such rule are met.  Among the conditions for use of Rule 144 may be the availability of current information to the public about Maker or its successor.  Such information is not now available and Maker has no present plans to make such information available.  The Conversion Shares may not be Transferred unless, in connection with any such Transfer, the Holder first provides Maker with an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Maker to the effect that such Transfer will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and the registration or qualification requirements of any applicable U.S. state securities laws.
