Organization and Description of Business

Intralinks Holdings, Inc. ("Intralinks Holdings") and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") is a leading global provider of Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS") solutions for secure content management and collaboration within and among organizations. The Company's cloud-based solutions enable organizations to control, track, search and exchange time-sensitive information, inside and outside of the firewall, all within a secure and easy-to-use environment. The Company's customers rely on its cost-effective solutions to manage large amounts of electronic information, accelerate information-intensive business processes, reduce time to market, optimize critical information workflows, meet regulatory and risk management requirements and collaborate with business counterparties in a secure, auditable and compliant manner. The Company helps its customers eliminate the inherent risks and inefficiencies of using email, fax, courier services and other existing solutions to collaborate and exchange information.

The Company was incorporated in Delaware as "Intralinks, Inc." in June 1996. In June 2007, the Company completed a merger (the "Merger") pursuant to which Intralinks, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TA Indigo Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation formed by an investor group led by TA Associates, Inc., which is now part of TA Associates Management, L.P., a prominent growth private equity firm, and Rho Capital Partners, Inc., an investment and venture capital management company and one of the principal investors in Intralinks, Inc. since 2001. In 2010, the Company changed the name of TA Indigo Holding Corporation to "Intralinks Holdings, Inc." and on August 5, 2010, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective the Company's registration statement on Form S-1, in connection with its initial public offering of 11.0 million shares of common stock.
