Item 1.01. Entry into a Definitive Material Agreement.

The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K is to correct an error contained in the first paragraph of Item 1.01 of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Alimera Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) on May 17, 2011 (the “Prior Report”). In the first paragraph of Item 1.01 of the Prior Report, the Company’s working capital line of credit was erroneously described as a $25.0 million working capital line of credit. The Company’s working capital line of credit should have been described as a $20.0 million working capital line of credit. The Prior Report is hereby amended solely to delete the reference to “$25.0 million” in the first sentence of Item 1.01 and replace it with “$20.0 million”. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, the Prior Report is not amended in any other respect.
