On behalf of Midas Fund, Inc., Midas Magic, Inc., and Midas Perpetual Portfolio, Inc. (each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”), transmitted earlier today for filing pursuant to Rule 14a-6(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, was a preliminary proxy statement proposed to be used in connection with a joint special meeting of the shareholders of the Funds (Midas Fund, Inc. - ACCESSION NUMBER: 0000770200-12-000028; Midas Magic, Inc. - ACCESSION NUMBER: 0000788422-12-000037; Midas Perpetual Portfolio, Inc. - ACCESSION NUMBER: 0000015260-12-000052). A copy of the preliminary proxy statement is attached hereto for your reference. The preliminary proxy statement asks each Fund’s shareholders, voting separately from the other Funds’ shareholders, to vote on following proposals: (1) to approve the reorganization of the Fund into a corresponding series of a newly established Delaware statutory trust; (2) to approve a new investment management agreement between the Fund and Midas Management Corporation, the Fund’s current investment manager; and (3) to elect Directors to the Board of Directors of the Fund.
