Calculation of Filing Fee
Transaction Value* |
| Amount of Filing Fee** |
$93,327,384 |

* Estimated for purposes of calculating the filing fee only. This amount is determined by multiplying 31,109,128 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of iBasis, Inc. by $3.00 per share, which is the offer price. Such number of Shares represents the 71,230,202 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of November 25, 2009 less 40,121,074 shares of common stock already owned by KPN B.V., a private limited liability company organized under the laws of The Netherlands, and its affiliates.
** The filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Fee Rate Advisory #5 for fiscal year 2009, issued on March 11, 2009, by multiplying the transaction value by .0000558.
