Section 7 – Regulation FD Disclosure

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On November 6, 2009, the Fund announced via press release that the Fund and its investment adviser, Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc., have entered into a Cooperation and Voting Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Susan L. Ciciora Trust (the “Trust”) and Mr. Stewart R. Horejsi (collectively, the “Covered Stockholders”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Trust has agreed not to pursue its previously announced proposals related to the operation and governance of the Fund and, as recommended by the Board of Directors of the Fund, the Covered Stockholders have agreed to vote in favor of the proposed liquidation and dissolution of the Fund to be considered by the Fund’s stockholders at their upcoming Annual Meeting. Effective November 6, 2009, as part of the Agreement the Fund has terminated its Rights Agreement, dated August 18, 2009, and has amended its By-laws to provide that the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act shall not apply to the acquisition of shares of the Fund’s common stock by any stockholder of the Fund so long as such stockholder’s voting power in the election of directors of the Fund remains below 1/3 of all of such voting power (the “Amendment”). In addition, the Fund’s 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, previously scheduled to be held on December 7, 2009, has been cancelled and is now scheduled to be held on January 29, 2010. Only holders of record of common and preferred shares of the Fund at the close of business on December 21, 2009 are entitled to vote at such meeting.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the press release, the Agreement and the Amendment which are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2 and 99.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
