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.
