Item 8.01 Other Events.
      Black Box Corporation (the “Company”) has been notified that a shareholder derivative complaint was filed in the United States District Court, Western District of Pennsylvania on November 16, 2006 naming the Company as nominal defendant and also naming as defendants current and former members of the Company’s Board of Directors and current and former officers of the Company (collectively, the “Defendants”). The complaint alleges purported violations of state and federal law in connection with certain stock option grant practices from April 1995 to October 2002. The complaint seeks monetary damages in unspecified amounts, equitable and injunctive relief, including the rescission and imposition of a trust over certain of the Defendants’ stock options and disgorgement of proceeds derived therefrom, expenses and costs of the action and other relief as the Court deems just and proper. The Company and its directors intend to review the allegations and respond appropriately.
      The Company does not intend to file further current reports on Form 8-K describing additional lawsuits, if any, which are based on allegations substantially similar to those contained in the complaint described above.
