Transaction Valuation*

 

Amount of Filing Fee**

$1,950,167,509.37

   

$179,415.41

 


*

Estimated for purposes of calculating the amount of the filing fee only, in accordance with Rule 0-11(d) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The calculation of the transaction valuation assumes the purchase of 30,012,942 outstanding shares of common stock of Lands' End, Inc. at a purchase price of $62.00 per share. The transaction valuation also includes the offer price of $62.00 less $30.13, which is the average exercise price per share, multiplied by 2,804,051, the estimated number of options outstanding.

**

The amount of the filing fee, calculated in accordance with Section 13(e) of the Exchange Act, equals $92 per million dollars of the transaction valuation. Sent by wire transfer to the Securities Exchange lockbox on May 16, 2002.
