CALCULATION OF FILING FEE

 

Transaction Valuation*		Amount of Filing Fee**
$5,209,219,175.00		$603,749

 

*                           Calculated solely for purposes of determining the filing fee.  The calculation of the transaction value is determined by adding the sum of (i) 145,136,214 ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share, of Patheon N.V. multiplied by the offer consideration of $35.00 per share, (ii) the net offer consideration for 1,747,750 outstanding stock options with an exercise price less than $35.00 per share (which is calculated by multiplying the number of shares underlying such outstanding stock options by an amount equal to $35.00 minus the weighted average exercise price for such stock options of $23.28 per share), (iii) 1,408,018 shares subject to issuance pursuant to restricted share units, multiplied by the offer consideration of $35.00 per share and (iv) 1,705,355 shares subject to issuance pursuant to performance share units, multiplied by the offer consideration of $35.00 per share. The foregoing share figures have been provided by the issuer to the offeror and are as of May 30, 2017.
