(1) The number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), stated above consists of the aggregate number of additional shares not previously registered (i) which may be issued upon the exercise of options which have been granted under the Amended and Restated Alphatec Holdings, Inc. 2005 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Plan (the “2005 Plan”) (2,506,626 shares); and (ii) which may hereafter be issued under the 2005 Plan (1,093,374 shares). In addition, pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as is necessary to eliminate any dilutive effect of any future stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction.
(2) This calculation is made solely for the purpose of determining the registration fee pursuant to the provisions of Rule 457(c) and (h)(1) under the Securities Act as follows: (i) in the case of shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon exercise of outstanding options, the fee is calculated on the basis of the price at which the options may be exercised; and (ii) in the case of shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with equity awards that have not yet been granted, the fee is calculated on the basis of the average of the high and low sale prices of the Common Stock as reported on The NASDAQ Global Market as of a date (March 5, 2013) within five business days prior to filing this Registration Statement.
(3) Calculated pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Securities Act.
