                              Calculation of Filing Fee
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
         Transaction Valuation         Amount of Filing Fee
              $17,394,320*                  $3,478.87
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     *   Such amount represents an estimate of the proposed maximum amount
         of merger consideration that could be paid in the Merger ($2.70
         per share in cash with respect to 6,442,341 shares).  Such
         amounts of merger consideration are only estimates, are being
         used solely for purposes of calculating the filing fee, and do
         not necessarily represent the actual (or maximum) aggregate, or
         per share, cash merger consideration, as such merger
         consideration may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of the
         Agreement of Merger, to be paid to Issuer's stockholders.

         /X/  Check if any part of the fee is offset as provided by Rule
              0-11(a)(2) and identify the filing with which the offsetting fee
              was previously paid.  Identify the previous filing by
              registration statement number, or the form or schedule and date
              of its filing.
