|
|
|
|
29,862,238.98
|
|
1,666.31
|
* Estimated
for purposes of calculating the filing fee only. Calculated by adding
(i) the product of (A) 8,222,724, which is the difference between 25,905,422,
the number of common shares, no par value (“Shares”), of Corel Corporation
outstanding as of September 22, 2009, and 17,682,698, the number of Shares
beneficially owned by Corel Holdings, L.P. and (B) $3.50, which is the per Share
tender offer price, (ii) the product of (A) 447,767, which is the number of
Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options that are vested and
exercisable as of September 30, 2009 with an exercise price less than $3.50
(“in-the-money” options), and (B) $2.33, which is the difference between the
$3.50 per Share tender offer price and $1.17, the weighted average exercise
price of such options, and (iii) the product of (A) 10,688, which is the number
of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that are vested and exercisable as of
September 30, 2009, and (B) $3.50, which is the per Share tender offer price.
The number of outstanding Shares is contained in Corel Corporation’s Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 31, 2009. The number
of Shares issuable upon the exercise of “in-the-money” options, the weighted
average exercise price for such options and the number of RSUs that are vested
before September 30, 2009 are provided by Corel Corporation.
** The
amount of the filing fee is calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Fee Rate Advisory # 2 for
Fiscal Year 2010 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission on September
28, 2009, by multiplying the transaction valuation by 0.0000558.
