STOCK EQUIVALENT UNIT PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”) entered into this 10 day of June, 2008 (the “ Effective Date ”), between GABRIEL TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION , a Delaware corporation (the “ Corporation ”), and MATT GOHD (the “ Holder ”).

WHEREAS, Pali Capital, Inc. (“Pali”) has provided services to the Corporation resulting in an obligation of the Corporation to Pali of fees and expenses incurred in connection with financing activity that occurred between October 12, 2004 and November 15, 2007, including but not limited to those specific obligations set forth in that certain March 22, 2005 letter agreement between the Corporation and Pali (the “ Obligation ”), and has agreed to exchange the Obligation for aggregate consideration of 758,766 Units (as defined below), 358,750 of which are to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the terms of that certain Obligation Exchange Agreement and Release (the “ Exchange Agreement ”) by and among the Corporation, Pali, the Holder, Hilary Bergman and GJ Capital;

(ii) Consummation of a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or a significant part of the assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) of the Corporation or of any of the Corporation’s wholly or partly owned subsidiary companies, including without limitation Trace Technologies, LLC, a Nebraska limited liability company (a “ Business Combination ”), in each case, unless , following such Business Combination, (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities that were the beneficial holders of the Shares (as defined below) immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 60% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation that, as a result of such Business Combination, owns the Corporation or all or substantially all of the Corporation‘s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Shares immediately prior to such Business Combination, (B) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Corporation or such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 35% or more of, respectively, the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of such corporation, except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and (C) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Corporation’s Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or of the action of the Board providing for such Business Combination; or

(iii) Approval by the stockholders of the Corporation of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Corporation.

(b) “ Dividend Distribution Date ” means the date on which the Corporation pays a cash dividend to the holder of a Share.

(c) “ Settlement Date ” means the date upon which the Stockholders of the Corporation receive proceeds resulting from a Change of Control.

(d) “ Share ” means one share and “ Shares ” means more than one share of the Corporation’s issued and outstanding common stock, $0.001 par value, as the same is constituted from time to time.

(e) “ Stockholder ” means a holder of Shares.

(f) “ Unit ” means a contractual right of the Holder to receive a certain amount or value of property from the Corporation equal to a certain amount or value of property received by a Stockholder with respect to a Share, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2. Acknowledgement of Receipt of Units and Cancellation of Obligation .

(a) The Holder hereby acknowledges receipt of 358,750 Units from the Corporation under the Exchange Agreement and agrees that such Units shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Holder further acknowledges and agrees that such Units were received in exchange for the cancellation of the Corporation’s Obligation, as described in the Exchange Agreement.

(b) The Corporation hereby acknowledges the issuance of 358,750 Units to the Holder under the Exchange Agreement and agrees that such Units shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Corporation further acknowledges and agrees that such Units were issued in exchange for the cancellation of the Corporation’s Obligation, as described in the Exchange Agreement.

3. Rights of Holders of Units . In accordance with the terms of this Agreement, on the Settlement Date and each Dividend Distribution Date, if any, the Holder of a Unit, with respect to each Unit held, shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the value of the amount paid or distributed to each Stockholder with respect to each Share, in the form of cash or, at the election of the Corporation, other property with a value equal to the property otherwise distributable or payable under the terms of this Agreement. Any such amount or distribution to which a Holder becomes entitled shall be paid or made by the Corporation to such Holder within five (5) Business Days (as defined below) of such Settlement Date or Dividend Distribution Date. By way of illustration of the amounts or distributions to which a Holder may become entitled, if on the Settlement Date, a Stockholder of the Corporation receives $1.00 for each Share held by such Stockholder, then Holder will receive a cash payment equal to $1.00 times the number of Units held by Holder. Similarly, if on the Settlement Date, each Stockholder of the Corporation receives 5 shares of common stock of the acquiring company, with a value of $2.00, for each Share held by such Stockholder, then Holder will receive, at the Corporation’s election, either (a) a cash payment equal to $2.00 times the number of Units held by Holder, or (b) 5 shares of common stock of the acquiring company for each Unit held by Holder. Likewise, if on the Dividend Distribution Date, each Stockholder of the Corporation receives a Dividend Distribution Payment of $0.25 per Share in cash, then Holder will receive a cash payment equal to $0.25 times the number of Units held by the Holder. The Corporation shall have the right to deduct, from any payment or distribution hereunder, any taxes required by law to be withheld from the Holder with respect to such payment or distribution and, in furtherance thereof, Holder shall provide any documentation or completed form as may be requested by Corporation related to or in connection with the determination of any such withholding. For the avoidance of doubt, amounts will only be payable or distributable under this Agreement upon the occurrence of an event specifically described herein and, further, no amount shall be payable or distributable to a Holder upon the mere change in value of a Share in the absence of such occurrence.

4. No Rights as a Stockholder . The Holder, in its capacity as a Holder of Units, shall have no rights as a Stockholder of the Corporation. No Shares or other equity interest in the Corporation shall be issued pursuant to this Agreement.

5. Adjustments to Units; No Limitation on Corporation Action .

(a) In the event of a change in the number of Shares by reason of the Corporation implementing any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares or other similar corporate change, so long as such change does not result in a Change of Control, the Corporation shall adjust the number of Units issued to Holder in the Holder’s Account (as defined in Section 7) as is necessary and appropriate and, further, any such adjustment made shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the issuance by the Corporation of shares of its capital stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of capital stock of any class, either in connection with a direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Corporation convertible into such shares or other securities, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Units covered by this Agreement.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the existence of the Units shall not affect in any manner the right or power of the Corporation to make, authorize or consummate (i) any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Corporation’s capital structure or its business; (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Corporation; (iii) the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation; (iv) any sale, transfer or assignment of all or any part of the assets or business of the Corporation; or (v) any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

6. Representations and Warranties of Holders of Units . As of the Effective Date and the date of execution of the Exchange Agreement, the Holder represents and warrants that:

(a) The Holder has had access to all information regarding the Corporation and its present and prospective business, assets, liabilities and financial condition that the Holder reasonably considers important in connection with the Units, this Agreement, and the Exchange Agreement, and the Holder has had ample opportunity to ask questions of the Corporation’s representatives (and any such questions have been answered to Holder’s satisfaction) concerning such matters.

(b) The Holder is fully aware of: (i) the highly speculative nature of the future potential financial returns on or from the Units, (ii) the financial risks and hazards involved in the future potential financial returns on or from the Units, and (iii) the tax consequences of executing and participating in this Agreement and the Exchange Agreement.

7. Stock Equivalent Unit Account . Each Unit shall be evidenced by an entry on the books of the Corporation (an “ Account ”). Each Account shall be the record of Units issued to Holder pursuant to the Exchange Agreement and this Agreement and shall be solely for accounting purposes. Amounts payable or distributable hereunder shall be paid or distributed exclusively from the general assets of the Corporation, and no Holder entitled to payment or distribution hereunder shall have any claim, right, security interest, or other interest in any fund, trust, account, insurance contract, or asset of the Corporation from which a payment or distribution may be made. The rights of a Holder of a Unit hereunder shall be solely those of an unsecured creditor of the Corporation. The Corporation’s liability for payments or distributions hereunder, if any, shall be evidenced only by this Agreement.

8. Restriction on Transfer . The Units may not be assigned or transferred except by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If the Holder dies, the Units shall transfer to a person who acquired the right to the Units by bequest or inheritance. The Units shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted assignment or transfer of the Units contrary to the provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon the Units, shall be null and void and without effect.

9. Notices . All notices or other communications which are required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and sufficient if (i) personally delivered, (ii) sent by nationally-recognized overnight courier or (iii) sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:
