Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On March 25, 2010, AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or the Company, was served with a complaint, or the Complaint, naming the Company, its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer as defendants in a purported class action lawsuit, Silverstrand Investments v. AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. et al (Case No. 10 Civ. 10470), filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts.  The Complaint alleges violations by the Company and its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with the Company’s January 2010 common stock offering.

 

The Company believes that the allegations are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against this action.
