CALCULATION OF FILING FEE


Transaction Valuation*		Amount of Filing Fee**
$1,990,773,406.50		$258,402.39

Estimated solely for purposes of calculating the filing fee pursuant to Rule 0-11(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Transaction Valuation was calculated by multiplying (i) the sum of (a) 53,029,491, which is the difference between 65,766,796, the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Aimmune Therapeutics, Inc. (“Aimmune” and, such common stock, the “Aimmune Common Stock”) outstanding, and 12,737,305, which is the sum of 12,727,113, the number of shares of Aimmune Common Stock held by Société des Produits Nestlé S.A. (“Nestlé”) and 10,192, the number of shares of Aimmune Common Stock held by Greg Behar, (b) 314,549 shares subject to restricted stock units that will vest on or prior to October 9, 2020, (c) 4,268,896 shares of Aimmune Common Stock subject to outstanding stock options exercisable on or prior to October 9, 2020, and (d) 90,641 shares of Aimmune Common Stock estimated to be subject to issuance pursuant to Aimmune’s 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, by (ii) $34.50, the offer price per share of Aimmune Common Stock. The foregoing figures are based on information provided by Aimmune as of September 10, 2020 (other than the number of shares held by Nestlé, which was determined by Nestlé).
