This calculation is based upon $0.0001161 multiplied by transaction
valuation shown above. For purposes of calculating this fee only, the
transaction valuation is based on the aggregate number of securities
to which the transaction applies multiplied by the merger
consideration of $2.25 per share. For purposes of calculating the
aggregate number of securities only, this number is based on (i)
46,119,207 shares of RAE Systems Inc. common stock outstanding and
owned by stockholders other than 13,392,857 shares (the Rollover
Shares) owned by the Rollover Holders (as defined below); and (ii)
outstanding stock options to purchase an aggregate of 3,385,030 shares
of RAE Systems Inc. common stock with exercise prices below $2.25
which are eligible to be cashed out in the merger. For purposes of
calculating the per unit price, this price is based on the fact that
(i) each outstanding share of common stock owned by stockholders
(other than the Rollover Holders with respect to the Rollover Shares)
will be converted into the right to receive $2.25 in cash, without
interest, and (ii) each outstanding stock option to purchase shares of
RAE Systems Inc. common stock with a per share exercise price less
than $2.25 will be converted into the right to receive a cash payment
equal to (a) the excess of $2.25 over the per share exercise price for
the shares of common stock subject to such stock option, multiplied by
(b) the number of shares of common stock underlying such stock option.
