IntraLinks Introduces Access Monitoring Service To Aid Loan Market Compliance

New service helps firms to monitor exposure to material non-public information

New York, December 19, 2005
IntraLinks, Inc., a leading provider of secure online workspaces to the financial services industry, today launched its Access Monitoring Service to aid compliance in the loan syndication market. This new offering provides firms with comprehensive reports that show whether their personnel have viewed public or private information regarding loan offerings. This additional reporting capability is designed to enable firms to take mitigating steps to avoid potential conflicts of interest when involved in both the public and private markets. IntraLinks Access Monitoring Service delivers daily reports on loan document access activities to compliance officers through IntraLinks ® On-Demand Workspaces™.

“The Access Monitoring Service helps firms improve surveillance as part of their ‘control room’ function and protect themselves from potential regulatory pitfalls,” said Andrew Damico, Executive Vice President at IntraLinks. “The service provides peace of mind to compliance staff and management by giving them the tools to effectively monitor loan document access activity.”

IntraLinks’ Access Monitoring Service reports include the following:

· Exposure by User – Breaks down deal exposure at the individual employee level to help compliance staff know what deals each team member is focused on and their public/private declaration on each transaction.

· Public vs. Private Declaration Changes – Reports any change in a deal’s public/private declaration made by an employee.

· Access Detail – Enables compliance staff to view the specific information an employee is accessing through IntraLinks.

· Deal Exposure – Displays the complete set of deals in which the company is participating or considering.

· Monitored Users – A report identifying each employee within the firm using an IntraLinks ID.

"Having this type of capability is essential to our surveillance function. The Access Monitoring Service provides the quality of service we've come to expect from IntraLinks," said Skip Short, Compliance Officer at Putnam Investments.

"IntraLinks has once again raised the bar for capabilities and service in the loan syndication market. These latest features are necessary and critical for proper compliance and deal management,” said Scott Krase, Portfolio Manager of Oak Hill Advisors.
