Item 8.01 Other Events.
 
On December 27, 2011, a purported class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against IntraLinks Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its executive officers.  The complaint, which alleges that the defendants made false and misleading statements during the period from February 17, 2011 through November 10, 2011 (the “Allegation Period”) in violation of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, makes substantially the same claims as, and is related to, the purported class action lawsuit previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 7, 2011, which is incorporated herein by reference. The Company expects that the court will consolidate or coordinate the two class actions, along with any other similar class actions filed, and will appoint a lead plaintiff and lead counsel pursuant to the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.  The Company anticipates that the lead plaintiff will then file a consolidated and amended class action complaint.

Also, on December 28, 2011, a shareholder derivative complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former directors.  The complaint alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by causing the Company to issue materially false and misleading statements about the Company’s business prospects, financial condition and performance during the Allegation Period.

The Company believes these claims are without merit and intends to defend these lawsuits vigorously.
