CALCULATION OF FILING FEE

Transaction Valuation* Amount Of Filing Fee**
$1,066,144,449.00 $107,361.00
  • Calculated solely for purposes of determining the filing fee. The calculation of the transaction value is determined by adding the sum of (i) 17,552,633 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of HeartWare International, Inc. (“HeartWare”) multiplied by the offer price of $58.00 per share, (ii) 730,656 shares subject to issuance upon settlement of outstanding restricted stock units multiplied by the offer price of $58.00 per share and (iii) the net offer price for 218,518 shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options with an exercise price less than $58.00 per share (which is calculated by multiplying the number of shares underlying such outstanding options by an amount equal to $58.00 minus such applicable strike price). The calculation of the filing fee is based on information provided by HeartWare as of June 24, 2016.

** The filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Fee Rate Advisory No. 1 for Fiscal Year 2016, issued August 27, 2015, by multiplying the transaction valuation by 0.0001007.
