FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Skillful Craftsman Education Technology Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company ("**Borrower**"), promises to pay to FUN AND COOL LIMITED, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, or its successors or assigns ("**Lender**"), US$1,000,000 on March 3, 2024, being the first (1st) anniversary of the Effective Date (the "**Maturity Date**") in accordance with the terms set forth herein and to pay interest at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum from the Effective Date (as defined below) until the same is paid in full. All interests hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30)-day months and shall be payable on the Maturity Date. This Convertible Promissory Note (this "**Note**") is issued and made effective as of March 3, 2023 (the "**Effective Date**"). This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated March 2, 2023, as the same may be amended from time to time, by and between Borrower and Lender (the "**Purchase Agreement**").

For all purposes of this Note, (a) the "**Outstanding Balance**" means, as of any date of determination, the principal of US$1,000,000, as reduced or increased, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms hereof for payment, Conversion (as defined below), offset, or otherwise, plus accrued but unpaid interest, (b) "**Business Day**" means any day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or other day on which banks are required or authorized by applicable laws to be closed in Beijing or Cayman Islands, and (c) "**Trading Day**" means a day on which the Nasdaq Capital Market where the ordinary shares of Borrower are traded at the relevant time is open for business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Payment; Prepayment</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1. <u>Payment</u>. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Shares (as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address or bank account furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2. <u>Prepayment</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance (less such portion of the Outstanding Balance for which Borrower has received a Conversion Notice (as defined below) from Lender where the applicable Conversion Shares have not yet been delivered). If Borrower exercises its right to prepay this Note, Borrower shall make payment to Lender of an amount in cash equal to the portion of the Outstanding Balance Borrower elects to repay.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Security</u>. This Note is unsecured.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Conversion</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.1. <u>Optional Conversion</u>. Lender has the right at any time after the Effective Date until the Outstanding Balance has been paid in full, at its election, to convert (an "**Optional Conversion**") the whole or any part of the Outstanding Balance into ordinary shares of par value US$0.0002 per share of Borrower ("**Conversion Shares**") as per the following conversion formula: the number of Conversion Shares equals the amount of Outstanding Balance being converted (the "**Conversion Amount**") divided by the Conversion Price (as defined below). Notice for an Optional Conversion shall be in the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u> (each, a "**Conversion Notice**") and may be delivered to Borrower by any method set forth in the "<u>Notices</u>" section of the Purchase Agreement. A Conversion Notice is effectively delivered only if Lender returns this Note (as amended) to the Borrower. On or before the close of business on the 10<sup>th</sup> Business Day following the date of delivery of a Conversion Notice, Borrower shall (i) deliver or cause its share registrar or transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares and a certificate representing the number of Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender, and (ii) issue a new Note evidencing the then Outstanding Balance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2. <u>Mandatory Conversion</u>. If the closing bid price of the ordinary shares of Borrower as reported by Nasdaq exceeds the Conversion Price for at least five (5) consecutive Trading Days, all of the Outstanding Balance shall be automatically converted into Conversion Shares (a "**Mandatory Conversion**"). The number of Conversion Shares to be issued in connection with a Mandatory Conversion shall be determined by dividing the Outstanding Balance at such time by the Conversion Price. Lender and Borrower shall take all actions necessary to effect a Mandatory Conversion. On or before the close of business on the 10<sup>th</sup> Business Day following the satisfaction of the condition to the Mandatory Conversion, Borrower shall deliver or cause its share registrar or transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares and a certificate representing the number of Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender. No later than the issuance of the Conversion Shares, Lender shall promptly return this Note to the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.3. <u>Conversion Price</u>. Subject to adjustment as set forth in this Note, the price at which all or any part of the Outstanding Balance will be converted into Conversion Shares in connection with any Optional Conversion or Mandatory Conversion is the "**Conversion Price**", which is initially US$1.82 per Conversion Share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4. <u>Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Share Subdivision or Combination</u>. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, ratio change or otherwise) its outstanding ordinary shares into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split, ratio change or otherwise) its outstanding ordinary shares into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 3.4 occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.5. <u>Transfer Restrictions</u>. The Conversion Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of this Note, have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "***Securities Act***"), or under any state securities or so-called "blue sky laws," and may not be offered, sold, transferred, hypothecated or otherwise assigned except (a) pursuant to a registration statement with respect to such Conversion Shares which is effective under the Securities Act or (b) upon receipt from counsel satisfactory to Borrower of an opinion, which opinion is satisfactory in form and substance to Borrower, to the effect that such Conversion Shares may be offered, sold, transferred, hypothecated or otherwise assigned (i) pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act and (ii) in accordance with all applicable state securities or so-called "blue sky laws." Certificates representing the Conversion Shares that may be issued upon conversion of this Note may bear a restrictive legend to such effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.6. <u>Fractional Shares</u>. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of Conversion Shares will be issued on an Optional Conversion or a Mandatory Conversion, but the number of Conversion Shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share (with .5 or greater being rounded up and less than .5 rounded down).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Trigger Events; Defaults; and Remedies</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1. <u>Trigger Events</u>. The following are trigger events under this Note (each, a "**Trigger Event**"): (a) Borrower fails to pay any principal, accrued interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable hereunder; (b) Borrower files a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); and (c) an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is commenced or filed against Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.2. <u>Defaults</u>. At any time following the occurrence of a Trigger Event, Lender may, at its option, send written notice to Borrower demanding that Borrower cure the Trigger Event within sixty (60) days. If Borrower fails to cure the Trigger Event within the required 60-day cure period, the Trigger Event will automatically become an event of default hereunder (each, an "**Event of Default**") and the date of the Event of Default shall be the 60<sup>th</sup> day following the occurrence of the relevant Trigger Event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.3. <u>Default Remedies</u>. At any time and from time to time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accelerate this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash. Lender may continue making Conversions at any time following a Trigger Event or an Event of Default until such time as the Outstanding Balance is paid in full. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of this Note until such time, if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Waiver</u>. No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Expenses</u>. Lender and Borrower shall each bear their own expenses incurred for the issuance of this Note pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Governing Law; Dispute Resolution</u>. This Note shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the Hong Kong laws, without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Hong Kong laws to the rights and duties of the parties hereunder. Borrower and Lender agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute, controversy, difference or claim arising out of or relating to or regarding this Note (each, a "**Dispute**"). If the negotiations do not resolve the Dispute to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower and Lender within 30 days after either Borrower or Lender has raised the Dispute for negotiation, such Dispute shall be referred to and finally settled by arbitration at Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (the "**HKIAC**") in accordance with the HKIAC Arbitration Rules in effect, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section. The seat of arbitration shall be Hong Kong. There shall be one (1) arbitrator and the HKIAC Council shall select the arbitrator. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Cancellation</u>. After repayment or conversion of the entire Outstanding Balance, this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically be deemed canceled, and shall not be reissued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Amendments</u>. The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Assignments</u>. Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Severability</u>. If any part of this Note is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the objective of Borrower and Lender to the fullest extent permitted by law and the balance of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.
