Pursuant to Rule 477(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, BlackRock Value Opportunities Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”), an open-end investment company, hereby requests withdrawal of the following Post-Effective Amendments (the “Amendments”) to the Fund’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 002-60836):
| | | | | | |
Post-Effective Amendment Number | | Date Filed | | Submission Type | | Accession Number |
54 | | 4/10/2017 | | 485A | | 0001193125-17-118559 |

56 | | 6/22/17 | | 485BXT | | 0001193125-17-210486 |
The Fund is requesting withdrawal of the Amendments because the Fund has not yet received the requisite shareholder approval to effect certain of the changes reflected in the Amendments. Based upon the foregoing, the Registrant respectfully submits that such a withdrawal would be consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors.
