CALCULATION
OF FILING FEE
Transaction
valuation* $1.1 million; Amount of filing fee* $112
*
Estimated for purposes of calculating the amount of the filing fee only. SideChannel, Inc. (“SideChannel” or the “Company”)
is offering to holders of certain of its warrants, as more fully described herein, the opportunity to exchange such warrants for shares
of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Shares” or “Common Stock”) by tendering (i)
six (6) warrants with an exercise price of $0.36 in exchange for one (1) share of our Common Stock, and (ii) four (4) warrants with an
exercise price of $1.00 or $0.18, as the case may be, in exchange for one (1) share of our Common Stock. The amount of the filing fee
assumes that all outstanding warrants that are the subject of the offer will be exchanged and is calculated pursuant to Rule 0-11(b)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The transaction value was determined assuming that
all warrants to purchase SideChannel’s Common Stock eligible to participate in the Offer are exchanged, and that the approximately
12,602,770 shares issued as a result of the Offer have an aggregate value of $1.1 million calculated based on the average of the low
and high trading price on August 16, 2023 which was $0.08.
The
amount of the filing fee, calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11(b) under the Exchange Act, equals $110.20 per million dollars
of the transaction valuation.
