EXHIBIT 10.01
PROMISSORY NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of August
21, 2009 by and among Gabriel Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), and the investors listed on the Schedule of Investors attached
hereto (each, an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”).
 
WHEREAS, the Company desires to raise capital of up to $300,000 pursuant to this
Agreement (the “Financing”);
 
WHEREAS, the Investors desire to purchase, and the Company desires to sell to
each initial Investor (each an “Initial Investor”) who desires to participate in
the Initial Closing (as defined below), a Promissory Note in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A (with all such Promissory Notes issued in the Initial
Closing or any Interim Closing (as defined below) referred to herein
individually as a “Note” and collectively as the “Notes”) in the principal
amount set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule A), upon the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, subsequent to the Initial Closing and until such time as the Company
has (a) sold Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000 or, (b) in its
discretion, determined that the offering of the Notes should be terminated (the
“Open Investment Period”), the Company desires to offer and sell additional
Notes to additional parties that elect to participate in the Financing (the
“Additional Investors”), each of whom would become an Investor pursuant to this
Agreement, at one or more Interim Closings (as defined below) in accordance with
the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Company and the Investors hereby agree as follows:
 
1.      Purchase and Sale of Notes; Closings.
 
1.1  Sale and Issuance of Notes to Initial Investors at Initial
Closing.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the initial
purchase and sale of the Notes shall take place at the principal office of the
Company (the “Closing Location”), at 10:00 A.M., on August 21, 2009 (which time
and place are designated as the “Initial Closing”).  At the Initial Closing, the
Company shall deliver to each Initial Investor the original Note that such
Initial Investor is purchasing at the Initial Closing upon confirmation of
receipt of payment of the purchase price therefor, which purchase price shall
equal the principal amount of the Note purchased (the “Purchase Price”) and
shall be paid in cash by wire transfer.
 
1.2  Sale and Issuance of Notes at Interim Closings.  Subject to this Section
1.2, after the Initial Closing, the Company may sell additional Notes to
Additional Investors at one or more interim closings (each an “Interim Closing,”
and collectively referred to herein along with the Initial Closing as the
“Closings,” or, as applicable, individually as a “Closing”), provided that any
such sale is pursuant to this Agreement and any such Interim Closing occurs on
or before the end of the Open Investment Period.  Any Additional Investor
purchasing a Note at any Interim Closing shall become a party to this Agreement
in full capacity as an “Investor” in this Agreement, as if such person had
purchased Notes at the Initial Closing by executing and delivering to the
Company a counterpart signature page to this Agreement.  The representations and
warranties of the Company set forth in Section 2 hereof shall speak as of the
date of each Closing, and the representations and warranties of each applicable
Additional Investor in Section 3 hereof shall speak as of the date of the
applicable Closing.  At each Interim Closing, (i) this Agreement, including
without limitation the Schedule of Investors attached hereto, may be amended by
the Company without the consent of the Investors to include any Additional
Investors as parties hereto and to add each Additional Investor and the
principal amount of the Note being purchased by such Additional Investor to the
Schedule of Investors attached hereto, and (ii) the Company shall deliver to
each Additional Investor the original Note that such Additional Investor
purchases at such Interim Closing upon confirmation of receipt of payment of the
Purchase Price therefor, which Purchase Price shall equal the principal amount
of the Note purchased, in cash by wire transfer.  Any Notes sold pursuant to
this Section 1.2 shall be deemed to be “Notes” for all purposes under this
Agreement.

of the Company hereunder and under the Notes, and the authorization, sale and
issuance of the Notes being sold hereunder, has been taken or will be taken
prior to the Initial Closing.  This Agreement and the Notes constitute valid and
legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating
to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other

representations set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, the issuance and sale
of the Notes as contemplated by this Agreement are intended to be exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the

2.4  Compliance With Other Instruments.  The Company is not in material
violation of any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation as amended to

agreement between the Company and any other person or entity.
 
3.      Representations and Warranties of the Investors.  Each Investor,
severally and not jointly, hereby represents, warrants and covenants that:
 
3.1  Authorization.  Such Investor has full power and authority to enter into
this Agreement, and this Agreement is a legal, valid and binding agreement of
such Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
 
3.2  Purchase Entirely For Own Account.  This Agreement is made with such
Investor in reliance upon such Investor’s representations to the Company, which
by such Investor’s execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby confirms,
that the Notes to be received by such Investor will be acquired for investment
for such Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view
to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise
distributing the same.  By executing this Agreement, such Investor further
represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such
person or to any third person, with respect to the Note(s).

3.3  Disclosure of Information.  Such Investor has received all the information
it requested from the Company for deciding whether to purchase the Notes.  Such
Investor further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and
receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the
offering of the Notes and the business, properties, prospects, litigation
matters, and financial condition of the Company, including but not limited to
information relating to litigation the Company is currently engaged in with
Qualcomm Inc.
 
3.4  Investment Experience.  Such Investor is an investor in securities of
companies of this type and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can
bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience
in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and

in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act.
 
3.6  Restricted Securities.  Such Investor understands that the Notes to be
purchased hereunder are characterized as “restricted securities” under the

a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and
applicable regulations such Notes may be resold without registration under the
Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.  In the absence of an
effective registration statement covering the Notes or an available exemption
from registration under the Securities Act, the Notes must be held
indefinitely.  In this connection, such Investor represents that it is familiar
with SEC Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect,
and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities
Act, including without limitation the Rule 144 condition that current
information about the Company be available to the public.  Such information is
not now available.
 
3.7  Legends.  Such Investor understands and acknowledges that each Note shall
be endorsed with the legend set forth below:
 
THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
SOLD, PLEDGED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED OF UNLESS AND UNTIL THIS
NOTE IS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS
OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE.

or caused to be provided to the Company in connection with the purchase of the
Notes hereunder is correct and complete as of the date set forth on the
Investor’s signature page of this Agreement.
 
3.9  Reliance.  Such Investor understands that the acceptance of this Agreement
by the Company will be based, in part, on the Investor’s representations,
warranties, covenants and acknowledgements set forth in this Section
3.  The Investor agrees to indemnify the Company from any and all claims,
losses, damages and expenses (including without limit attorneys’ fees and
disbursements) arising out of any alleged material breach of this Agreement by
the Investor or material inaccuracy of any representation or warranty by the
Investor.

bound by this Agreement, and
 
(b)  Such Investor shall have notified the Company in writing of the proposed
disposition, and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of
the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if requested by the
Company, such Investor shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of

understands that each such Investor (and not the Company) shall be responsible
for such Investor’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this
investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

by this Agreement and to consult with such Investor’s own legal counsel and
advisors.  Each such Investor is relying solely on such Investor’s legal
counsel, if consulted, and not on any statements or representations of the
Company or any of the Company’s agents for legal advice with respect to this
investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
