(1)   This estimate is made pursuant to Rules 457(c) and 457(h) under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), solely for
purposes of calculating the registration fee, on the basis of the average of
the high ($2.75) and low ($2.59) prices of the Registrant's Common Stock as
reported on the American Stock Exchange on April 20, 2007.
(2)
Attached to each share of the Registrant's
Common Stock is a right to purchase one five-hundredth of a share of 1998-C
Participating Cumulative Preference Stock, par value $10.00 per share. The
rights are not exercisable until the occurrence of specified events. Because no
separate consideration is paid for such rights, the registration fee for such
securities is included in the fee for the Common Stock registered hereby.
EXPLANATORY

3,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the Rentech, Inc. Amended
and Restated 2006 Incentive Award Plan (the "Plan").  Pursuant to Instruction E to Form S-8, the
