                              12 % PROMISSORY NOTE


$750,000                                                       December 26, 2005

      For value received, GRAPHITE TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("Graphite"), hereby promises to pay to the order of BPK Resources,
Inc. (the "Holder") the amount of Seven Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars
($750,000) in accordance with the following terms:

      1. Payment of Amount Owed; Security. Graphite shall pay the Holder the
principal amount of this note and all accrued interest on or before March 31,
2006. This note shall be secured by all of the assets held by Graphite, as
evidenced by that certain Security Agreement by and between Graphite and Holder
dated the date hereof;

      2. Payment of Interest. Interest will accrue on the unpaid principal
amount of this note at an annual rate of 12%. Interest will be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

      3. Stock Options. In the event Graphite determines not to further pursue
the proposed business combination with the Holder, the Holder shall have the
option to purchase for $750,000 at any time prior to December 31, 2008 such
number of shares of Graphite's common stock as shall equal ten percent (10%) of
Graphite's then outstanding common stock calculated on a fully diluted basis
(including all outstanding options, warrants and other securities or rights
convertible or exchangeable into the common stock) as evidenced by that certain
Option Agreement by and between Graphite and Holder dated the date hereof. The
number of shares of stock of Graphite covered by this option, the option price
and other relevant provisions shall be appropriately adjusted in the event of a
stock dividend, recapitalization, forward stock split, reverse stock split or
other similar corporate transaction in order to prevent dilution or enlargement
of benefits intended to be made available hereby. In case Graphite issues any
shares of its common stock between the date hereof and the date of the exercise
of such option, or issues any option, warrant, convertible security or other
right to purchase or acquire its securities between the date hereof and the date
of the exercise of the option, then the option to purchase provided for in this
paragraph 3 shall be adjusted downward in price and upward in amount, on a
"full-ratchet" basis, based on the price of the securities so issued.

      4. Representations and Negative Covenants. Graphite represents and
warrants to Holder that: (i) it has duly obtained all authorizations, consents,
rulings, approvals, licenses, franchises, permits and certificates by or of all
third parties to any existing agreements or instruments by which Graphite or any
of the properties or assets of Graphite is or may be bound, which are required
for the execution, delivery and performance of this Note, the Security
Agreement, or Option Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, as applicable, and of or by all governmental
authorities and non-governmental administrative or regulatory agencies having
jurisdiction over Graphite, its assets or properties, this Note, the Security
Agreement or Option Agreement, the Pledged Collateral (as that term is defined
in the Pledge Agreement), which are required for the execution, delivery and
performance of this Note, the Security Agreement or Option Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, as applicable;
and (ii) neither the execution and delivery of this Note, the Security Agreement
or Option Agreement by Graphite nor the performance by Graphite of its
obligations hereunder or thereunder as applicable, will: (A) conflict with
Graphites's certificate of incorporation or bylaws; (B) violate any statute,
law, ordinance, rule or regulation, applicable to Graphite or any of the
properties or assets of Graphite; or (C) violate, breach, be in conflict with or
constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would constitute a default) under, or permit the termination of any provision
of, or result in the termination of, the acceleration of the maturity of, or the
acceleration of the performance of any obligation of Graphite, or result in the
creation or imposition of any lien upon any properties, assets or business of
Graphite under, any contract or any order, judgment or decree to which Graphite
is a party or by which it or any of its assets or properties is bound or
encumbered. Until the full outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest
due hereunder is paid in full, Graphite will not, without the prior written
consent of the Holder, merge with, or sell substantially all its assets to, any
individual or entity other than the Holder, sell any material amount of its
assets to any individual or entity, issue any shares of its capital stock or

key employees.

      5. Method of Payment. Graphite shall pay amounts due under this note by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the
Holder in a written notice to Graphite. All payments must be in such currency as
is then legal tender for payment of public and private debts in the United
States of America. All amounts paid will be applied first to accrued, unpaid
interest on this note and the balance, if any, will be applied to reducing the
principal amount of this note.

      6. Prepayment. Graphite may prepay this note in whole or in part at any
time without premium or penalty.

kind with respect to this note.

exercising any of the Holder's rights nor any partial or single exercise of any
of those rights constitutes a waiver thereof or of any other right, and no
