CALCULATION OF FILING FEE

Transaction Valuation*	Amount of Filing Fee**
$1,706,967,870.19	$52,404

*

Estimated for purposes of calculating the filing fee only. The transaction valuation was calculated by adding the sum of (i) the offer price of $14.25 per share multiplied by 105,811,082 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Opsware Inc. outstanding as of July 16, 2007 and (ii)(a) 24,618,041 shares of common stock par value $0.001 per share, of Opsware Inc., which were subject to issuance pursuant to the exercise of outstanding options as of July 16, 2007, multiplied by (b) the amount equal to $14.25 minus $6.16 (the weighted average exercise price of such outstanding options as of July 16, 2007).

**

The filing fee, calculated in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, equals $30.70 for each $1,000,000 of value.
