ITEM 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 16, 2011, Gabriel Technologies Corporation (“Gabriel”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Trace Technologies, LLC (“Trace”), entered into a note purchase agreement, dated as of September 2, 2011, with North Water Intellectual Property Fund L.P. 3A, a Delaware limited partnership (“North Water”), and other purchasers and parties named in the note purchase agreement. References in this report to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “company” refer to Gabriel and Trace, collectively. Also on September 16, 2011, we entered into a common interest agreement, dated as of September 2, 2011, with North Water relating to the loan transactions provided for in the note purchase agreement.

In the note purchase agreement, we have agreed to sell and issue to North Water a senior secured promissory note, or “senior secured note,” of Trace in the maximum aggregate principal amount of $3,100,000. The purchase price of the senior secured note will be equal to the actual principal amount of the senior secured note advanced by North Water to Trace. On September 19, 2011, North Water made an initial advance under the senior secured note of approximately $1,905,684. The initial advance has been or will be used to date to pay accrued litigation expenses, administration costs and a $155,000 finder’s fee payable by us in connection with the transactions with North Water.

North Water is obliged under the note purchase agreement to advance additional amounts to Trace, up to the maximum principal amount of the senior secured note, from time to time in accordance with the common interest agreement to fund our litigation expenses incurred in connection with our prosecution of the claims asserted by us against Qualcomm Inc. in Civil Action No. 3:08-CV-I 192 pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, San Diego Division, including any successor claim or related claim, which we refer to as the “Qualcomm dispute.” We also may use advances by North Water to pay for certain corporate administration expenses of the company such as management fees payable to our Chief Executive Officer.

Pursuant to the note purchase agreement, we assigned and contributed to Trace, and Trace assumed from Gabriel, several note purchase agreements and related obligations of Gabriel, which we refer to as the “assigned agreements,” with respect to approximately $12,071,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding promissory notes of Gabriel, which we refer to as the “original notes.” In connection with the assignment and assumption of the assigned agreements, the holders of approximately $11,346,000 aggregate principal amount of the original notes agreed to surrender for cancellation their original notes in exchange for Trace’s issuance to them of secured and unsecured promissory notes of Trace of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $11,346,000, which we refer to as the “replacement notes.” These holders also agreed in the note purchase agreement to release and discharge Gabriel from its obligations under the assigned agreements and the original notes. We also agreed in the note purchase agreement to issue to some of the note holders warrants to purchase shares of common stock of Gabriel in exchange for their surrender for cancellation of outstanding common stock warrants previously issued to them to purchase substantially the same number of our shares. We intend to solicit the holders of the remaining outstanding original notes to join in the note purchase agreement and exchange their original notes for replacement notes.

The senior secured note held by North Water and the replacement notes each provide for our payment to the holder of the principal amount of such note plus an additional amount calculated as a multiple of such principal amount or as a percentage of any proceeds from an “IP Event” as defined in the note purchase agreement. In the purchase agreement, we, North Water, the holders of the replacement notes and other parties have collectively agreed upon the priority of payment to North Water, the holders of the replacement notes and the other parties of any proceeds of an IP Event with respect to the Qualcomm dispute. Gabriel has retained a residual interest in any IP Event proceeds remaining after payment of the aggregate principal and other amounts payable to North Water, the holders of the replacement notes and the other parties to the note purchase agreement, as well as payment to the holders of any outstanding original notes.

There is no assurance whether, when, or how much, proceeds may be realized from an IP Event. Even if we realize proceeds from an IP Event, such proceeds may not be insufficient to repay all or any substantial portion of the principal and other amounts payable to North Water, the holders of the replacement notes and any outstanding original notes and other creditors. Unless we realize sufficient IP Event proceeds to pay all such amounts, we will not be entitled to retain any such proceeds for us and our stockholders.

The replacement notes will mature on the earlier of October 11, 2020 or the date of the final payment of proceeds of any IP Event. We are obliged to make mandatory prepayments under the replacement notes as and when we receive any proceeds of an IP Event.

The North Water senior secured note and the secured replacement notes are secured by a lien and security interest in all of our assets, including proceeds of an IP Event.

Also on September 16, 2011, Trace entered into a priority litigation expense provider note purchase agreement with the purchasers identified on the signature pages thereto, pursuant to which Trace may sell and issue up to an additional $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of promissory notes at one or more subsequent closings under the priority litigation expense provider note purchase agreement, if necessary, to raise funds needed to pay litigation expenses in excess of those funded by North Water under the note purchase agreement.

Copies of the note purchase agreement and the priority litigation expense provider note purchase agreement are included as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary of the principal terms of such agreements is qualified by reference to the complete agreements.
