Dear Shareholder:

   Your fund and certain other funds within the Deutsche Asset Management Fund
Complex ('DeAM Fund Complex') are holding shareholder meetings at which
shareholders will be asked to vote on certain proposals.

   You will be asked to elect members of the Board governing your fund. This
proposal is part of an overall plan to coordinate and enhance the efficiency of
governance by the boards of the DeAM Fund Complex. Your Board also believes
that your fund will benefit from the greater diversity and the expertise of the
nominees that would be included on the expanded boards.

   As you know, your investment advisor's parent, Deutsche Bank AG, has,
through acquisitions such as Zurich Scudder Investments, and through internal
reorganizations, sought to enhance its global research and investment
management capabilities. Consistent with these changes, you will also be asked
to approve a new advisory agreement. Under the new advisory agreement, your
advisor would be authorized to appoint certain affiliates as sub-advisors. This
would allow your fund's advisor to take advantage of the strengths of other
entities within the Deutsche Asset Management organization by permitting the
advisor to delegate certain portfolio management services to these entities.
Shareholders of certain funds will also be asked to approve a new sub-advisory
agreement.

   The enclosed proxy statement details these proposals. For your convenience,
we've provided a question and answer section that offers a brief overview of
the issues for which your vote is requested. The proxy statement itself
provides greater detail about the proposals, why they are being made and how
they apply to your fund. Please read these materials carefully.

  Please be assured that:

       .  These proposals will have no effect on the number of shares you own
          or the value of those shares.

       .  The advisory fees applicable to your fund will not change.

       .  The members of your fund's Board carefully reviewed each proposal
          prior to recommending that you vote in favor of each proposal.

   To vote, simply complete the enclosed proxy card(s) -- be sure to sign and
date it -- and return it to us in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. Or, you
can save time by voting through the Internet or by telephone as described on
your proxy card.



   Your vote is very important to us. If we do not hear from you, our proxy
solicitor may contact you. Thank you for your response and for your continued
investment.

                         Respectfully,

                         /s/ Daniel O. Hirsch
                         Daniel O. Hirsch
                         Assistant Secretary

   The attached proxy statement contains more detailed information about each
of the proposals relating to your fund. Please read it carefully.

                             QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

    Q: What is the purpose of this proxy solicitation?

    A: The purpose of this proxy solicitation is to ask you to vote on the
       following issues:

      .   to elect eleven members of the Board of Directors of Deutsche Bank
          Alex. Brown Cash Reserve Fund, Inc. (the 'Fund'), whose terms will be
          effective beginning July 30, 2002 or on such later date as
          shareholder approval is obtained; and

      .   to approve new investment advisory agreements between the Fund, on
          behalf of each series, and Deutsche Asset Management, Inc. ('DeAM,
          Inc.').

       THE BOARD MEMBERS OF THE FUND RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE FOR THESE
       PROPOSALS.

    I. BOARD PROPOSAL TO ELECT NEW BOARD MEMBERS

    Q: Why am I being asked to vote for Board members?

    A: Fund management recommended to the Board, and the Board agreed, that the
       Fund along with certain other funds that are managed, advised,
       sub-advised or administered by DeAM, Inc. and certain other funds
       managed, advised or administered by Investment Company Capital Corp.
       ('ICCC') (collectively, the 'DeAM Funds') should be governed by boards
       comprised of the same group of individuals. To attain the goal of having
       identical boards for all DeAM Funds, we need shareholder approval to add
       certain persons to the Fund's Board.

    Q: Why did the Fund's Board approve management's recommendation?

    A: Fund management recommended this proposal as part of an overall plan to
       coordinate and enhance the efficiency of the governance of the DeAM
       Funds. The Board considered, among other factors, that a unified group
       board structure should benefit the Fund by creating an experienced group
       of Board members who understand the operations of the Fund and the DeAM
       Fund Complex and are exposed to the wide variety of issues that arise
       from overseeing different types of funds. Adopting a unified group board
       structure will also enable management to use time more efficiently.
       There may also be cost savings in avoiding duplication of efforts
       involved in the preparation and conduct of board meetings.



    Q: If the Board proposal is approved by shareholders, how many Directors
       will sit on the Board?

    A: If all nominees are elected, the Fund's Board will consist of eleven
       individuals. Five of these persons currently serve as members of the
       Board; six persons will be new to the Fund's Board but have experience
       serving on the boards of various other investment companies within the
       DeAM Fund Complex.

   II. PROPOSAL RELATED TO APPROVAL OF NEW INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS

    Q: Why am I being asked to vote for a new investment advisory agreement?

    A: Fund management recommended to the Board that they approve the new
       investment advisory agreements in order to simplify the organizational
       structure of Deutsche Bank's US mutual fund operations. The proposed new
       advisory agreements described in the proxy statement will cover
       substantially similar provisions and do not differ in terms of services
       to be provided or fees to be paid therefor from the current advisory
       agreements pursuant to which services are provided to the Fund, except
       for the dates of execution, effectiveness, initial term, certain changes
       to the 'Delegation of Responsibilities' section, and except that, under
       the new advisory agreements, DeAM, Inc., an indirect wholly owned
       subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, would be the investment advisor rather than
       ICCC, also an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Bank.
       Currently, under limited circumstances, an advisor may delegate duties
       to a sub-advisor without obtaining shareholder approval at the time such
       delegation is made. The proposed delegation provision is also intended
       to authorize the selection of sub-advisors under circumstances yet to be
       approved or identified by the Securities and Exchange Commission or its
       staff.

       In determining to recommend that the shareholders approve the new
       advisory agreements, the Board considered that the change to DeAM, Inc.
       is a matter of administrative convenience and no material changes will
       result with respect to the services currently provided to the Fund.

    Q: Will the investment advisory fees remain the same?

    A: Yes. The investment advisory fee rates proposed to be charged to each
       Series of the Fund under the new advisory agreements are the same as the
       respective investment advisory fee rates charged under the current
       advisory agreements.

2



  III. GENERAL QUESTIONS

    Q: What are the Board's recommendations?

    A: The Board recommends that all shareholders vote 'FOR' the nominees for
       the Board and 'FOR' the approval of the new advisory agreements.

    Q: Will the Fund pay for the proxy solicitation and legal costs associated
       with this solicitation?

    A: No, DeAM, Inc. will bear these costs.

    Q: How can I vote?

    A: You can vote in any one of four ways:

      .   Through the Internet, by going to the website listed on your proxy
          card(s);

      .   By telephone, with a toll-free call to the number listed on your

control number that appears on your proxy card. These voting methods will save
the Fund money. Whichever method you choose, please take the time to read the

                           Baltimore, Maryland 21202

                    PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE SPECIAL MEETING
                                OF SHAREHOLDERS

                           To Be Held July 30, 2002

   This proxy statement ('Proxy Statement') is being furnished in connection
with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown
Cash Reserve Fund, Inc. (the 'Fund') on behalf of the Prime, Treasury, and
Tax-Free Series (each a 'Series') to be used at the special meeting of the Fund
to be held at the offices of Deutsche Asset Management, One South Street, 30th

at any adjournments thereof (the 'Special Meeting'). This Proxy Statement and
accompanying proxy card(s) ('Proxy') are expected to be mailed to shareholders
on or about June 13, 2002.

   The Fund is comprised of three separate series: the Prime Series, the
Treasury Series and the Tax-Free Series. The Prime Series has six share classes
and the Treasury and Tax-Free Series have two share classes each. Each class
has its own expense structure. However, since the Proposals presented in this
Proxy Statement uniformly affect each class of each Series, shareholders of
each class of a Series may vote on all the Proposals relevant to that Series,
and each vote has equal weight regardless of its class.

   The Special Meeting is being held to consider and vote on the following
matters for the Fund, as indicated below and described more fully under the
corresponding Proposals discussed herein, and such other matters as may
properly come before the Special Meeting or any adjournments thereof:

PROPOSAL I:            To elect eleven Directors of the Fund to hold office

                       of the Special Meeting or, in the event of an
                       adjournment or adjournments of the Special Meeting,
                       such later date as shareholder approval is obtained.

              in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
              amended).

   The appointed proxies will vote on any other business as may properly come
before the Special Meeting or any adjournments thereof.

   The shareholders of the Fund are to consider the election of Richard R.
Burt, S. Leland Dill, Martin J. Gruber, Richard T. Hale, Joseph R. Hardiman,
Richard J. Herring, Graham E. Jones, Rebecca W. Rimel, Philip Saunders, Jr.,

instructions, and to confirm that their instructions have been properly
recorded. Proxies voted by telephone or through the Internet may be revoked at
any time before they are voted in the same manner that Proxies voted by mail
may be revoked.

   The most recent Annual Report of the Fund containing audited financial
statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 (the 'Report'), has
previously been furnished to shareholders. An additional copy of the Report
will be furnished without charge upon request by writing to the Fund at the
address set forth on the cover of this Proxy Statement or by calling
1-800-730-1313. The Report is also available on the Deutsche Asset Management
website at www.deam-us.com.

   If the enclosed Proxy is properly executed and returned in time to be voted
at the Special Meeting, the shares represented thereby will be voted in
accordance with the instructions marked on the Proxy. Shares of the Fund are
entitled to one vote each at the Special Meeting and fractional shares are
entitled to proportionate shares of one vote. If no instructions are marked on
the Proxy with respect to a specific Proposal, the Proxy will be voted 'FOR'
the approval of such Proposal and in accordance with the judgment of the
persons appointed as proxies with respect to any other matter that may properly
come before the Special Meeting. Any shareholder giving a Proxy has the right
to attend the Special Meeting to vote his/her shares in person (thereby
revoking any prior Proxy) and also the right to revoke the Proxy at any time
prior to its exercise by executing a superseding Proxy or by submitting a
written notice of revocation to the Fund's secretary (the 'Secretary'). To be
effective, such revocation must be received by the Secretary prior to the
Special Meeting. Merely attending the Special Meeting without voting will not
revoke a prior Proxy.

   Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (formerly, Bankers Trust Company)
('Deutsche Bank Trust') may vote any shares in accounts as to which Deutsche
Bank Trust has voting authority, which are not otherwise represented in person
or by proxy at the Special Meeting. Accordingly, for each Proposal, if Deutsche
Bank Trust votes shares of the Fund over which it has voting discretion, it
will do so in accordance with its fiduciary and other legal obligations, and in
its discretion may consult with the beneficial owners or other fiduciaries.

   In the event that a quorum is not present at the Special Meeting, or if a
quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve a Proposal are not received,
the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the
Special Meeting to permit further solicitation of Proxies with respect to the
Proposal. In determining whether to adjourn the Special Meeting, the following
factors may be considered: the nature of the proposals that are the subject of
the Special Meeting, the percentage of votes actually cast, the percentage of
negative votes actually cast, the nature of any further solicitation and the
information to be provided to shareholders with respect to the reasons for the
solicitation. Any adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a

                                                                             3



majority of those shares represented at the Special Meeting in person or by
Proxy. The persons named as proxies will vote those Proxies that they are
entitled to vote 'FOR' any Proposal in favor of an adjournment and will vote
those Proxies required to be voted 'AGAINST' any such Proposal against any
adjournment. A shareholder vote may be taken on one or more of the Proposals in
the Proxy Statement prior to any adjournment if sufficient votes have been
received and it is otherwise appropriate. A quorum of shareholders is
constituted by the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of, for the
Fund, a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote at the
Special Meeting. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for
transacting business at the Special Meeting, abstentions and broker 'non-votes'
(that is, Proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that these persons have
not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled
to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or
nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are
present but which have not been voted. (See 'Vote Required' for a further
discussion of abstentions and broker non-votes.)

   Shareholders of record at the close of business on May 20, 2002 (the 'Record
Date') are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting. The
number of shares of each class of each Series that were issued and outstanding
as of the Record Date are set forth in Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement.

   In order that your shares may be represented, you are requested to (unless
you are voting by telephone or through the Internet):

   . indicate your instructions on the Proxy (or Proxies);

   . date and sign the Proxy (or Proxies); and

   . mail the Proxy (or Proxies) promptly in the enclosed envelope.

Instructions for voting by telephone or through the Internet are included on
the Proxy (or Proxies) enclosed with this Proxy Statement.

Beneficial Ownership of Shares of the Fund

   Exhibit B to this Proxy Statement sets forth information as of May 31, 2002
regarding the beneficial ownership of the Fund's shares by the only persons
known by the Fund to beneficially own more than five percent of the outstanding
shares of each class of the Fund. Unless otherwise indicated, each person has
sole investment and voting power (or shares this power with his or her spouse)
with respect to the shares set forth in Exhibit B. The inclusion therein of any
shares deemed beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial
ownership of the shares. Collectively, the Directors, Director Nominees and
executive officers of the Fund own less than 1% of each class' outstanding
shares.

Background

   The Fund.  The Fund is a registered open-end management investment company
established as a Maryland corporation. The Fund is comprised of three separate
series: the Prime Series, the Treasury Series and the Tax-Free Series.
Investment Company Capital Corp. ('ICCC'), located at One South Street,
Baltimore, Maryland 21202, currently acts as the investment advisor to each
Series pursuant to the terms of three separate investment advisory agreements,
one for each Series (the 'Current Advisory Agreements'). Pursuant to the
Current Advisory Agreements, ICCC supervises and assists in the management of
the assets of each Series and furnishes each Series with research, statistical,
advisory and managerial services. ICCC pays the ordinary office expenses of the
Fund and the compensation, if any, of all officers and employees of the Fund
and all Interested Directors of the Fund.

                                                                             5



                                  PROPOSAL I

          ELECTION OF NOMINEES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE FUND

   It is proposed that eleven Director Nominees are to be elected at the
Special Meeting to comprise the entire Board of Directors of the Fund to serve
until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their
earlier resignation or removal. The Independent Director Nominees were recently
selected by a Nominating Committee of the Board comprised entirely of the
Independent Directors of the Board and nominated by the full Board at a meeting
held on March 26, 2002. If elected, the terms of the eleven Director Nominees
will begin on the date of the Special Meeting or, in the event of an
adjournment or adjournments of the Special Meeting, such later date as
shareholder approval is obtained, and upon their respective acceptances of
their election in writing (the 'Effective Date'); until that time, the current
Board members will continue their terms. It is anticipated that Messrs. Levy,
McDonald, Semans and Vogt, each a current member of the Board of Directors,
will no longer serve effective the Effective Date if Proposal I is approved by
the shareholders of the Fund. The names and ages of the Director Nominees,
their principal occupations during the past five years and certain of their
other affiliations are provided later in this Proposal. No Independent Director
or Independent Director Nominee of the Fund serves or will serve as an officer
of the Fund. Each of the Director Nominees has agreed to serve if elected at
the Special Meeting. It is the intention of the persons designated as proxies
in the Proxy, unless otherwise directed therein, to vote at the Special Meeting
for the election of the Director Nominees. If any Director Nominee is unable or
unavailable to serve, the persons named in the Proxies will vote the Proxies
for such other person(s) as the Board of Directors may recommend.

   The nomination of these persons to serve as the Board of Directors of the
Fund reflects an overall plan to coordinate and enhance the efficiency of the
governance of the Fund and of certain other investment companies that are
managed, advised, sub-advised or administered by DeAM, Inc. (along with certain
other investment management companies managed, advised or administered by ICCC,
another indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Bank) (the 'DeAM Funds').
The proposal concerning the size and composition of the Board of Directors was
suggested to the Board by ICCC and reviewed by the current Independent
Directors of the Board. Messrs. Burt, Hale (Interested Director), Hardiman and
Wadsworth and Ms. Rimel currently serve on the Board of Directors of the Fund.
Each of the other Independent Director Nominees already serves as an
independent board member for one or more other DeAM Funds and understands the
operations of the fund complex.

   ICCC recommended, and the Board agreed, that the Fund should be governed by
a larger Board of Directors composed of the same members as are expected to

6



govern certain other DeAM Funds. Presently, the Board membership of the Fund
and the board membership of the other DeAM Funds are not identical. Nine
persons currently serve on the Board of Directors of the Fund and between five
and nine persons currently serve on the boards of the other DeAM Funds. If
shareholders elect each of the Director Nominees, certain of the existing
Directors will be joined by certain of the board members of the other DeAM
Funds. Although the By-Laws of the Fund provide that the Board of Directors may
consist of a maximum of fifteen directors, Fund management proposed, and the
Board agreed, that only eleven Director Nominees be submitted for election.
Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of
Director Nominees named.

   Although the election of the Director Nominees is not in any way conditioned
on similar action being taken by other funds, it is currently anticipated that
the boards of the other DeAM Funds will approve the expansions of their boards
and the appointment of new board members so that each of the DeAM Funds' boards
is ultimately identically comprised.

   The following information is provided for each Director Nominee and
executive officer of the Fund's Board as of the end of the most recently
completed calendar year. The first section of the table lists information for
each Director Nominee who is an Independent Director Nominee. Information for
the Interested Director Nominee follows. The Interested Director Nominee is
considered to be an interested person as defined by the 1940 Act because of his
employment with DeAM, Inc. The mailing address for the Director Nominees and
the executive officers with respect to Fund operations is One South Street,
Baltimore, Maryland 21202.

     $47,339 and $47,339, respectively, was deferred pursuant to a deferred
     compensation plan.

   The Board has established an Audit and Compliance Committee, a Nominating
Committee, a Pricing Committee, a Compensation Committee and an Executive
Committee. Each committee (except for the Pricing Committee) is currently
composed of the Independent Directors of the Board. Messrs. Burt, Hale
(Interested Director), Levy, McDonald, Semans (Interested Director) and
Wadsworth are currently the members of the Pricing Committee. In accordance
with its written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, the Audit and
Compliance Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibility for
oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting, auditing and
financial reporting practices of the Fund. It also makes recommendations to the
Board as to the selection of the independent public accountants, reviews the
methods, scope and results of the audits and audit fees charged, and reviews
the Fund's internal accounting procedures and controls. The Audit and
Compliance Committee also considers the scope and amount of non-audit services
provided to the Fund, its investment advisor and affiliates by the independent
public accountants. The Nominating Committee is charged with the duty of making
all nominations for Independent Directors to the Board of Directors. The
Nominating Committee will consider Director nominees recommended by
shareholders. Shareholders who wish to suggest nominees for the Board of
Directors should submit their suggestions to be considered to the Fund 60 days
in advance of a meeting for inclusion in the Fund's proxy statement and form of
proxy for such meeting as is held. The Pricing Committee considers and acts
upon all questions relating to valuation of the securities in the Fund which
may arise between meetings of the Board. The Compensation Committee is
responsible for reviewing the compensation paid to the

14



Directors for its appropriateness, and making recommendations to the full Board
with respect to the compensation of the Directors. The Executive Committee
makes recommendations to the full Board with respect to the renewal of the
Fund's agreements with its service providers. During the Fund's most recent
fiscal year the Board held six meetings, the Audit and Compliance Committee
held four meetings, the Nominating Committee held one meeting, the Pricing
Committee held one meeting, the Compensation Committee did not meet, and the
Executive Committee held four meetings. No Director attended less than 75% of
the applicable meetings. If the Nominees are elected to the Board, the Board
will consider whether other committees should be organized after it has
reviewed the needs of the Fund.

   Mr. Hale, if elected, will not be a member of the Audit and Compliance
Committee or the Nominating Committee.

Retirement Plan Information

   Certain funds in the Fund Complex have adopted a retirement plan for
Directors who are not employees of the Fund, ICCC or its respective affiliates
(the 'Retirement Plan'). The Retirement Plan is unfunded and unvested. On
February 12, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Fund, as well as each fund
participating in the Retirement Plan, voted to amend the Retirement Plan,
effective January 1, 2001, as part of an overall review of the compensation
paid to Directors. The amendments provide that no further benefits would accrue
to any current or future directors and include a one-time payment of benefits
accrued under the Retirement Plan to Directors, as calculated based on the
following actuarial assumptions: (1) retirement benefits at later of age 65 and
10 years of service based on a 10% per year of service vesting schedule; (2) a
6% interest rate; and (3) rounding all calculations to the next whole year as
of January 1, 2001. At each Director's election, this one-time payment could be
transferred into the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan, described below.

   Under the Retirement Plan in effect until December 31, 2000, the Fund has
one participant, a Director who retired effective December 31, 1996, who
qualified for the Retirement Plan by serving fourteen years as a Director and
who will be paid a quarterly fee of $4,875 by certain funds in the Fund Complex
for the rest of his life. Such fees are allocated to certain funds in the Fund
Complex based upon the relative net assets of such funds to the Fund Complex.

   Any Director of the Fund who receives fees from the Fund is permitted to
defer 50% to 100% of his or her annual compensation pursuant to a Deferred
Compensation Plan. Messrs. Burt, Hardiman, Levy, McDonald, Vogt, and Wadsworth,
and Ms. Rimel have each executed a Deferred Compensation Agreement. Currently,
the deferring Directors may select from among the funds in the Fund Complex in
which all or part of their deferral account shall be deemed to be invested.

                                                                             15



the deferring Directors' deferral accounts will be paid in cash, in generally
equal quarterly installments over a period of ten years.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

   The Board of Directors believes that coordinated governance through a
unified board structure will benefit the Fund.

   In their deliberations, the Board of Directors considered various matters
related to the management and long-term welfare of the Fund. The Board
considered, among other factors, that coordinated governance within the Fund
Complex will reduce the possibility that the separate boards might arrive at
conflicting or inconsistent decisions regarding the policies, strategies,
operations and management of the Fund and the other DeAM Funds, and that this
will help avoid costs, confusion and complexity resulting from different or
conflicting decisions. The Board also considered that operating with a unified
group board eliminates the potential for these types of conflicts while
preserving the insights and experience that can be contributed by individual
members. In addition, the Board considered that a unified group board would
also allow management to reduce the total number of board meetings it is
required to attend and at which it would make repetitive presentations each
year across the Fund Complex which can be expected to make the governance
process more efficient. Deutsche Asset Management expends a significant amount
of time and effort preparing and coordinating materials and presentations for
board meetings. In many instances, presentations need to be made more than once
on identical or similar issues. Adopting a unified group board structure would
enable management and the Board to use time more efficiently. There may also be
cost savings to the Fund because Directors will serve an increased number of
investment companies.

   The Board also considered that a unified group board structure benefits the
Fund by creating an experienced group of Board members who understand the
operations of the Fund and the Fund Complex and are exposed to the wide variety
of issues that arise from overseeing different types of funds. The Board gave
considerable weight to their expectation that the Fund will benefit from the
diversity and experience of the Director Nominees that would be included in the
expanded Board and from the experience that each Director Nominee will gain by
serving on the boards of a diverse group of funds. The Board also considered,
in light of the following transaction, the importance of greater breadth and
depth of expertise on the Board.

   On April 5, 2002, Deutsche Bank acquired 100% of US-based asset manager
Zurich Scudder Investments ('Scudder') (the 'Transaction'). The combined
organization is the fourth largest asset manager in the world, with
approximately $900 billion in assets under management. The Transaction is
anticipated to provide greater breadth and geographic reach to the asset
management services presently provided

16



by the asset management entities of Deutsche Bank by making available
additional investment expertise more effectively leveraged globally through a
stronger investment platform in which research is fundamentally integrated with
portfolio management. Because of the increased size and scope of Deutsche Asset
Management after the Transaction, Deutsche Asset Management will seek to
attract and retain talented people by providing a challenging work environment,
competitive compensation and reward systems and professional development
opportunities. Management intends to build a culture of teamwork, commitment,
performance and mutual respect.

   The Director Nominees have had distinguished careers in accounting, finance,
marketing and other areas and will bring a wide range of expertise to the
Board. Ten of the eleven nominees, if elected, would be Independent Directors.
Independent Directors are charged with special responsibilities to provide an
independent check on management and to approve advisory, distribution and
similar agreements between the Fund and management.

   In addition, the Board considered certain other advantages of enlarging the
Board. These included that enlarging the Board will afford an increased range
of experience among Board members and makes it more likely that the Board will
be able to ensure appropriate continuity over the years as incumbent members
reach mandatory retirement age or otherwise retire and that, should the Board
determine to revise its structure through increased establishment of
committees, an enlarged Board will provide an increased choice of potential
members of such committees. As part of their deliberations, the Board also
recognized that increased numbers of Board members could result in less
collegial meetings and longer discussions. On balance, the Board concluded that
these possible detriments of size were outweighed by the benefits anticipated
from the unified and enlarged Board.

   Therefore, after careful consideration, the Board, including the Independent
Directors, recommends that the shareholders of the Fund vote 'FOR' the election
of the Director Nominees as set forth in this Proposal.

   If the Director Nominees are elected by the shareholders, each Director
Nominee will serve, effective the Effective Date, until his/her successor is
duly elected and qualified or until his/her earlier resignation or removal. If
the Director Nominees are not elected, the Board will consider what action is
appropriate based upon the interests of the Fund's shareholders.

                                                                             17



                                  PROPOSAL II

                      APPROVAL OF NEW ADVISORY AGREEMENTS

   It is proposed that shareholders of each Series approve a new investment
advisory agreement between the Fund, on behalf of that Series, and DeAM, Inc.
The New Advisory Agreements contain substantially similar provisions and do not
differ in substance from the Current Advisory Agreements pursuant to which
services are provided to the Series except for the dates of execution,
effectiveness and initial term, certain changes to the 'Delegation of
Responsibilities' section, and except that, under the New Advisory Agreements,
DeAM, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, would be the
investment advisor rather than ICCC. See 'Differences Between the Current and
New Advisory Agreements.'

The Advisory Agreements

   The Current Advisory Agreements.  ICCC currently serves as investment
advisor to each Series (as discussed earlier) pursuant to the Current Advisory
Agreements. The Current Advisory Agreements were initially approved by the
Board, including a majority of those Board members who are not 'interested
persons' (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund or ICCC (the 'Independent
Directors').

   Exhibit C to this Proxy Statement lists: (i) the date of the Current
Advisory Agreements; (ii) the most recent date on which the Current Advisory
Agreements were approved by the Fund's Directors, including a majority of the
Independent Directors, and by each Series' shareholders; and (iii) the reason
each agreement was submitted to shareholders for their approval.

   The New Advisory Agreements.  The form of New Advisory Agreement is attached
to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit D. The description of the New Advisory
Agreements set forth below is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit
D. Exhibit E sets forth the compensation payable under each Series' agreement.
If shareholders approve the New Advisory Agreements, each agreement will remain
in effect for an initial term of two years from its effective date, and may be
renewed annually thereafter only if specifically approved at least annually by
the vote of 'a majority of the outstanding voting securities' (as defined in
the 1940 Act; see 'Vote Required' below) of the relevant Series, or by the
Board of Directors and, in either event, the vote of a majority of the
Independent Directors of the Fund, cast in person at a meeting called for such
purpose.

   The New Advisory Agreements are being proposed as a means to simplify the
organizational structure of Deutsche Bank's US mutual fund operations, enhance
the efficiency of their administration and promote consistency of internal
controls, com-

18



pliance and regulatory oversight. The New Advisory Agreements are to be
implemented within two years of the date of the Special Meeting, upon approval
of the Fund's Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent
Directors. The deferral in implementing the New Advisory Agreements may be
needed to permit a sufficient amount of time to plan, prepare and institute the
necessary arrangements to consolidate Deutsche Bank's US mutual fund operations.

   Differences Between the Current and New Advisory Agreements.  As stated
above, the terms and conditions--including the services to be provided and the
fees to be paid therefor--of the New Advisory Agreements contain substantially
similar provisions and do not differ in substance from the Current Advisory
Agreements except for the dates of execution, effectiveness and initial term,
and except that, under the New Advisory Agreements, DeAM, Inc., an indirect
wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, would be the investment advisor
rather than ICCC and the 'Delegation of Responsibilities' section of the
agreement has been revised.

   Both the Current Advisory Agreements and the New Advisory Agreements permit
the investment advisor, ICCC and DeAM, Inc. respectively, to delegate the
performance of advisory services to another party under certain conditions. The
New Advisory Agreements revise this provision as it applies to the delegation
of authority to affiliates, i.e., companies that the investment advisor
controls, is controlled by or under common control with, in the following ways:

      1. The New Advisory Agreements clarify that a delegation must be approved
   in advance by both the Independent Directors and the full Board of Directors
   of the Fund, whereas the Current Advisory Agreements state that a delegation
   must be approved by the Board of Directors and the shareholders of the
   relevant Series, to the extent required by the 1940 Act;

      2. The New Advisory Agreements clarify that DeAM, Inc. may, with the
   prior approval of the Board of Directors and the Independent Directors,
   adjust the duties of the delegate, the portion of any Series' assets being
   managed by the delegate, and the fees that DeAM, Inc. shall pay to the
   delegate; and

      3. While both the Current Advisory Agreements and the New Advisory
   Agreements require the investment advisor to supervise the activities of any
   delegate, the New Advisory Agreements clarify that any delegation shall not
   relieve DeAM, Inc. of any of its obligations under the New Advisory
   Agreements.

   Unlike the Current Advisory Agreements, the New Advisory Agreements make
explicit that DeAM, Inc. would be permitted to delegate certain advisory duties
to an affiliated sub-advisor. Currently, under limited circumstances, an
advisor may delegate duties to a sub-advisor without obtaining shareholder
approval at the time such delegation is made. Such circumstances include (a)
under Rule 2a-6 of the 1940 Act, where a proposed sub-advisor is under common
control with the advisor, and the

                                                                             19



same persons involved in the management of the assets are employed at both the
advisor and the sub-advisor; and (b) pursuant to certain interpretations of the
staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC'), where investment
responsibility is delegated by the advisor to other entities, or employees of
such entities, that are wholly owned subsidiaries of the advisor's parent
company. The New Advisory Agreements would also permit DeAM, Inc. to appoint
certain affiliates as sub-advisors, i.e., entities that DeAM, Inc. controls, is
controlled by, or is under common control with, under circumstances not
currently contemplated by Rule 2a-6 or the aforementioned staff
interpretations. However, DeAM, Inc. will not delegate to a sub-advisor unless
such delegation is then consistent with any amendments to the 1940 Act or the
rules and regulations thereunder or interpretations thereof.

   Deutsche Asset Management anticipates that it will seek to utilize the
talents of its employees throughout the world and without regard to the
specific subsidiary of Deutsche Bank that employs such persons. Accordingly,
DeAM, Inc. believes that shareholders could benefit from an authorization
permitting DeAM, Inc. to delegate such functions to affiliated advisory
organizations.

   Other provisions of the New Advisory Agreements are substantially similar to
the Current Advisory Agreements. Under the terms of the New Advisory
Agreements, DeAM, Inc. agrees to provide each Series with investment advisory
services, including the investment and reinvestment of the cash, securities or
other properties comprising the Series' assets. Subject to the supervision and
control of the Board of Directors, DeAM, Inc. agrees, in carrying out its
obligations, to conform to (a) all applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and
any rules and regulations adopted thereunder, (b) the provisions of the Fund's
registration statement, (c) the provisions of the Fund's Articles of
Incorporation and By-Laws, and (d) any other applicable provisions of state and
federal law.

   Under the terms of each New Advisory Agreement, DeAM, Inc. agrees to (a)
supervise and manage all aspects of the Series' operations, except for
distribution services; (b) formulate and implement continuing programs for the
purchases and sales of securities, consistent with the investment objective and
policies of the Series; (c) provide the Series with such executive,
administrative and clerical services as are deemed advisable by the Fund's
Board of Directors; (d) provide the Series with, or obtain for it, adequate
office space and all necessary office equipment and services for the Fund's
principal office; (e) obtain and evaluate pertinent information about
significant developments and certain other information, whether affecting the
economy generally or the Series; (f) determine which issuers and securities
will be represented in the portfolio and regularly report thereon to the Fund's
Board of Directors; (g) take all actions necessary to carry into effect the
Series' purchase and sale programs; (h) supervise the operations of the Series'
transfer and dividend disbursing agent; (i) provide the Series with such
administrative and clerical services for

20



the maintenance of certain shareholder records, as are deemed advisable by the
Fund's Board of Directors; and (j) arrange, but not pay for, the periodic
updating of prospectuses and supplements thereto, proxy material, tax returns,
reports to the shareholders of the Series and reports to and filings with the
SEC and state Blue Sky authorities, which may be required for the Series.

   The investment advisory fee rate proposed to be charged to each Series under
its New Advisory Agreement is the same as the investment advisory fee rate
charged to that Series under its Current Advisory Agreement.  The advisory fee
rate paid by each Series under its Current Advisory Agreement and the advisory
fee paid by each Series for the most recent fiscal year are set forth in
Exhibit E to this Proxy Statement. The Advisor has contractually agreed to
waive its fee for the Treasury Series by 0.05%. Exhibit E also sets forth other
fees paid to ICCC and its affiliates during the last fiscal year of the Fund.

   Generally.  If approved, the New Advisory Agreements will remain in effect
for an initial term of two years (unless sooner terminated), and shall remain
in effect from year to year thereafter if approved annually (1) by the Board of
Directors or by the holders of a majority of the Series' outstanding voting
securities and (2) by a majority of the Independent Directors who are not
parties to such contract or agreement. Like the Current Advisory Agreements,
each New Advisory Agreement will terminate upon assignment by any party and is
terminable, without penalty, on 60 days' written notice by the Board of
Directors or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as
defined in the 1940 Act) of the Series or upon 60 days' written notice by DeAM,
Inc.

   The services of DeAM, Inc. are not deemed to be exclusive and nothing in the
New Advisory Agreements prevents it or its affiliates from providing similar
services to other investment companies and their series, and other clients
(whether or not their investment objectives and policies are similar to those
of the Series) or from engaging in other activities. In addition, DeAM, Inc. is
obligated to pay those expenses specified in the New Advisory Agreements
associated with providing the services contemplated by the New Advisory
Agreements. The Fund bears certain other expenses including the fees of the
Fund's Board. The Fund also pays any extraordinary expenses incurred.

   Under each New Advisory Agreement, DeAM, Inc. will exercise its best
judgment in rendering its advisory services. DeAM, Inc. will not be liable for
any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Series
in connection with the matters to which the New Advisory Agreement relate,
provided that nothing therein shall be deemed to protect or purport to protect
DeAM, Inc. against any liability to the Series or to its shareholders to which
DeAM, Inc. could otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence on its part in

                                                                             21



the performance of its duties or by reason of DeAM, Inc.'s reckless disregard
of its obligations and duties under each New Advisory Agreement.

   DeAM, Inc. will allocate and place all orders for portfolio transactions of
the Series' securities. When it can be done consistently with the policy of
obtaining the most favorable net results, DeAM, Inc. may place such orders with
brokers and dealers who provide market, statistical and other research
information to the Fund or DeAM, Inc. DeAM, Inc. is authorized, under certain
circumstances, when placing portfolio transactions for equity securities to pay
a brokerage commission (to the extent applicable) in excess of that which
another broker might charge for executing the same transaction on account of
the receipt of brokerage or research services. When it can be done consistently
with obtaining best execution, in selecting brokers and dealers with which to
place portfolio transactions for the Series, DeAM, Inc. may consider its
affiliates and also firms that sell shares of mutual funds advised by DeAM,
Inc. or its affiliates or recommend the purchase of such funds.

Management of the Fund

   The Current Advisor.  ICCC, located at One South Street, Baltimore, Maryland
21202, currently acts as the investment advisor to each Series. ICCC is

Recommendation of the Board

   At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Fund held on March 26, 2002,
called for the purpose of, among other things, voting on approval of the New
Advisory Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Directors,
unanimously approved, subject to shareholder approval, the New Advisory
Agreements. In reaching this conclusion, the Board of Directors obtained such
information as they deemed reasonably necessary to approve DeAM, Inc. as
investment advisor to each Series. In approving the New Advisory Agreements,
the Independent Directors considered numerous factors, including, among other
things (i) the standards set forth in written materials previously provided to
the Independent Directors by their counsel and (ii) representations by Fund
management that the change to DeAM, Inc., an affiliate of ICCC, is a matter of
administrative convenience and that no material changes will result with
respect to the services currently provided to each Series.

   Based on the factors discussed above, and others, the Board of Directors
determined that the New Advisory Agreements are fair and reasonable and in the
best interest of each Series and its shareholders. Based on all of the
foregoing, at the meeting on March 26, 2002, the Board of Directors, including
the Independent Directors of the Fund, voted unanimously to approve the New
Advisory Agreements and to recommend them to the shareholders of the respective
Series for their approval.

Required Vote

   Approval of each New Advisory Agreement requires the affirmative vote of a
'majority of the outstanding voting securities' (as defined in the 1940 Act;
see 'Vote Required') of the relevant Series.

   Therefore, after careful consideration, the Board of Directors, including
the Independent Directors, recommends that the shareholders of each Series vote
'FOR' the approval of the New Advisory Agreements as set forth in this Proposal.

                                                                             23



   If the New Advisory Agreements are approved by the shareholders, the
agreements are to be implemented within two years of the date of the Special
Meeting. If the New Advisory Agreement for a Series is not approved by the
shareholders, the Current Advisory Agreement for that Series will continue in
effect, subject to any requisite approval(s) of the Board of Directors or the
Series' respective shareholders, and the Board of Directors will consider what
other action is appropriate based upon the interests of the shareholders.

                  INFORMATION CONCERNING INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

   The Fund's financial statements for its most recent fiscal year were audited
by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ('PwC'), independent auditors. In addition, PwC
prepares the Fund's federal and state annual income tax returns and provides
certain non-audit services to the Fund. During the Board's most recent
consideration of the selection of auditors for the Fund, the Board considered
whether the provision of non-audit services to the Fund was compatible with
maintaining PwC's independence. The Board of Directors of the Fund has selected
PwC as the independent auditors for the Fund's fiscal year ending March 31,
2003. PwC has been the Fund's independent auditors since 1993. PwC has informed
the Fund that it has no material direct or indirect financial interest in the
Fund.

   Representatives of PwC are not expected to be present at the Special Meeting
but have been given the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and
will be available should any matter arise requiring their presence.

   Audit Fees.  The aggregate fees billed by PwC for professional services
rendered for the audit of the Fund's annual financial statements for the most
recent fiscal year and the review of the financial statements included in the
Fund's reports to shareholders were $51,500.

   Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees.  There were no
fees billed by PwC for the most recent fiscal year for professional services
rendered for financial information systems design and implementation services
provided to the Fund, ICCC or entities that control, are controlled by or are
under common control with ICCC that provide services to the Fund.

   All Other Fees.  There were $2,836,970 in fees billed by PwC for the most
recent fiscal year for other services provided to the Fund, ICCC and entities
that control, are controlled by or are under common control with ICCC that
provide services to the Fund.

                               OTHER INFORMATION

Portfolio Transactions

   For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, the Fund did not pay any brokerage
commissions to affiliates of ICCC.

Principal Underwriter

   The Fund's principal underwriter is ICC Distributors, Inc. They are located
at Two Portland Square, Portland, Maine 04104.

                                 VOTE REQUIRED

   Approval of Proposal I requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of all
votes cast at the Special Meeting (all Series voting collectively), provided
that a quorum is present. Approval of Proposal II requires the affirmative vote
of a 'majority of the outstanding voting securities' (as defined in the 1940
Act) of a Series. 'Majority of the outstanding voting securities' (as defined
in the 1940 Act) means (as of the Record Date) the lesser of (a) 67% or more of
the shares of the Series present at the special meeting, if the holders of more
than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Series are present in person or by
proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Series. Because
abstentions and broker non-votes are treated as shares present but not voting,
any abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of votes against
Proposal II, which requires the approval of a specified percentage of the
outstanding voting securities of a Series.


THE  BOARD,  INCLUDING  THE  INDEPENDENT   DIRECTORS,   RECOMMENDS   THAT   THE
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE 'FOR' APPROVAL OF PROPOSALS I AND II.  ANY  UNMARKED  PROXIES
WILL BE SO VOTED.

   The Board is not aware of any other matters that will come before the
Special Meeting. Should any other matter properly come before the Special
Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying Proxy to
vote the Proxy in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

                      SUBMISSION OF SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

   The Fund does not hold regular shareholders' meetings. Shareholders wishing
to submit proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement for a subsequent
shareholders' meeting should send their written proposals to the Secretary of
the Fund at the address set forth on the cover of this Proxy Statement.

                                                                             25



   Proposals must be received at a reasonable time prior to the date of a
meeting of shareholders to be considered for inclusion in the materials for the
Fund's meeting. Timely submission of a proposal does not, however, necessarily
mean that such proposal will be included.

                   SHAREHOLDERS' REQUEST FOR SPECIAL MEETING

   Shareholders holding at least 10% of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) may require the calling of a meeting of
shareholders for the purpose of voting on the removal of any Director of the
Fund. Meetings of shareholders for any other purpose also shall be called by
the Board of Directors when requested in writing by shareholders holding at
least 10% of the shares then outstanding.

               DEUTSCHE BANK ALEX. BROWN CASH RESERVE FUND, INC.

                     FORM OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

   THIS AGREEMENT is made as of the ____ day of __________, 200_ by and between
DEUTSCHE BANK ALEX. BROWN CASH RESERVE FUND, INC., a Maryland corporation (the
'Fund'), and DEUTSCHE ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
'Advisor'), with respect to the following recital of fact:

   WHEREAS, the Fund is registered as an open-end, diversified management
investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
'1940 Act'); and

   WHEREAS, the Advisor is registered as an investment advisor under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and engages in the business of
acting as an investment advisor; and

   WHEREAS, the Fund's Articles of Incorporation authorize the Board of
Directors of the Fund to classify or reclassify authorized but unissued shares
of the Fund; and

   WHEREAS, the Fund's Board of Directors has authorized issuance of three
series of shares with a par value of $.001 representing interests in three
portfolios: the Prime Series, the Treasury Series and the Tax-Free Series (each
of the existing portfolios and any portfolios hereafter added shall be referred
to collectively as the 'Series'); and

   WHEREAS, the Fund and the Advisor desire to enter into an agreement to
provide investment advisory and administrative services for the Fund's
__________ Series (the '__________ Series') on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth;

   NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt whereof is hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

   1.  Appointment of Investment Advisor.  The Fund hereby appoints the Advisor
to act as the investment advisor to the ______ Series. The Advisor shall manage
the __________ Series' affairs and shall supervise all aspects of the
__________ Series' operations (except as otherwise set forth herein), including
the investment and reinvestment of the cash, securities or other properties
comprising the __________ Series' assets, subject at all times to the policies
and control of the Fund's Board of

                                                                            D-1



Directors. The Advisor shall give the __________ Series the benefit of its
best judgment, efforts and facilities in rendering its services as Advisor.

   2.  Duties of Investment Advisor.  In carrying out its obligations under
Section 1 hereof, the Advisor shall:

      (a) supervise and manage all aspects of the __________ Series' operations;

      (b) formulate and implement continuing programs for the purchases and
   sales of securities, consistent with the investment objective and policies
   of the ________ Series;

      (c) provide the __________ Series with such executive, administrative and
   clerical services as are deemed advisable by the Fund's Board of Directors;

      (d) provide the __________ Series with, or obtain for it, adequate office
   space and all necessary office equipment and services, including telephone
   service, heat, utilities, stationery supplies and similar items for the
   Fund's principal office;

      (e) obtain and evaluate pertinent information about significant
   developments and economic, statistical and financial data, domestic, foreign
   or otherwise, whether affecting the economy generally or the __________
   Series, and whether concerning the individual issuers whose securities are
   included in the __________ Series or the activities in which they engage, or
   with respect to securities which the Advisor considers desirable for
   inclusion in the __________ Series;

      (f) determine which issuers and securities shall be represented in the
   __________ Series and regularly report thereon to the Fund's Board
   of Directors;

      (g) take all actions necessary to carry into effect the Fund's purchase
   and sale programs with respect to its __________ Series;

      (h) supervise the operations of the __________ Series' transfer and
   dividend disbursing agent;

      (i) provide the __________ Series with such administrative and clerical
   services for the maintenance of certain shareholder records, as are deemed
   advisable by the Fund's Board of Directors; and,

      (j) arrange, but not pay for, the periodic updating of prospectuses and
   supplements thereto, proxy material, tax returns, reports to the
   shareholders of the __________ Series and reports to and filings with the
   Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC') and state Blue Sky
   authorities, which may be required for the __________ Series.

   3.  Broker-Dealer Relationship.  In the event that the Advisor is
responsible for decisions to buy and sell securities for the __________ Series,
broker-dealer selection, and negotiation of its brokerage commission rates, the
Advisor's primary consideration in effecting a security transaction will be
execution at the most favorable price. The Fund understands that a substantial
majority of the __________ Series' transactions will be transacted with primary
market makers acting as principal on a net basis, with no brokerage commissions
being paid by the Fund. Such principal transactions may, however, result in a
profit to the market makers. In certain instances the Advisor may make
purchases of underwritten issues at prices which include underwriting fees. In
selecting a broker-dealer to execute each particular transaction, the Advisor
will take the following into consideration: the best net price available; the
reliability, integrity and financial condition of the broker-dealer; the size
of and difficulty in executing the order; and the value of the expected
contribution of the broker-dealer to the investment performance of the
__________ Series on a continuing basis. Accordingly, the price to the Fund in
any transaction may be less favorable than that available from another
broker-dealer if the difference is reasonably justified by other aspects of the
portfolio execution services offered. Subject to such policies as the Board of
Directors may determine, the Advisor shall not be deemed to have acted
unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise
solely by reason of its having caused the Fund to pay a broker or dealer that
provides brokerage and research services to the Advisor an amount of commission
for effecting a portfolio investment transaction in excess of the amount of
commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that
transaction, if the Advisor determines in good faith that such amount of
commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and
research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either
that particular transaction or the Advisor's overall responsibilities with
respect to the __________ Series. The Advisor is further authorized to allocate
the orders placed by it on behalf of the __________ Series to such brokers and
dealers who also provide research or statistical material or other services to
the Fund or the Advisor. Such allocation shall be in such amounts and
proportions as the Advisor shall determine and the Advisor will report on said
allocation regularly to the Board of Directors of the Fund, indicating the
brokers to whom such allocations have been made and the basis therefor.

   4.  Control by Board of Directors.  Any management or supervisory activities
undertaken by the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement, as well as any other
activities undertaken by the Advisor on behalf of the ________ Series pursuant
thereto, shall at all times be subject to any applicable directives of the
Board of Directors of the Fund.

   5.  Compliance with Applicable Requirements.  In carrying out its
obligations under this Agreement, the Advisor shall at all times conform to:

      (a) all applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and any rules and
   regulations adopted thereunder;

                                                                            D-3



      (b) the provisions of the Registration Statement of the Fund under the
   Securities Act of 1933 and 1940 Act;

      (c) the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, as amended;

      (d) the provisions of the By-Laws of the Fund, as amended; and

      (e) any other applicable provisions of state and federal law.

   6.  Expenses.  The expenses connected with the ________ Series shall be
allocable between the Fund and the Advisor as follows:

      (a) The Advisor shall, subject to compliance with applicable banking
   regulations, furnish, at its expense and without cost to the Fund, the
   services of one or more officers of the Fund, to the extent that such
   officers may be required by the Fund for the proper conduct of its affairs.

      (b) The Fund assumes and shall pay or cause to be paid all other expenses
   of the __________ Series, including, without limitation, the __________
   Series' allocable portion of the following expenses: payments to the Fund's
   distributor under the __________ Series' plans of distribution; the charges
   and expenses of any registrar, any custodian or depository appointed by the
   Fund for the safekeeping of its cash, portfolio securities and other
   property, and any transfer, dividend or accounting agent or agents appointed
   by the Fund; brokers' commissions chargeable to the Fund in connection with
   portfolio securities transactions to which the Fund is a party; all taxes,
   including securities issuance and transfer taxes, and fees payable by the
   Fund to Federal, State or other governmental agencies; the costs and
   expenses of engraving or printing of certificates representing shares of the
   Fund; all costs and expenses in connection with the registration and
   maintenance of registration of the Fund and its shares with the SEC and

   information of the Fund and supplements thereto to the Fund's shareholders;
   all expenses of shareholders' and directors' meetings and of preparing,

   and travel expenses of directors or director members of any advisory board

   or personnel (including officers and directors)

   but not limited to, legal claims and liabilities and litigation costs and
   any indemnification related thereto); and all other charges and costs of the
   Fund's operation unless otherwise explicitly provided herein.

   7.  Delegation of Advisory Services.

      (a) Subject to the prior approval of the members of the Fund's Board of
   Directors, including a majority of the Directors who are not 'interested
   persons,' as defined in the 1940 Act, and shareholders of the __________
   Series, the Advisor may delegate to an unaffiliated sub-advisor certain of
   its duties enumerated in Section 2 hereof provided that the Advisor shall
   continue to supervise the activities of any such sub-advisor. The Advisor
   shall not be responsible for any such sub-advisor's performance under a
   sub-advisory agreement.

      (b) Subject to the prior approval of a majority of the members of the
   Fund's Board of Directors, including a majority of the Directors who are not
   'interested persons,' as defined in the 1940 Act, the Advisor may, through a
   sub-advisory agreement or other arrangement, delegate to any other company
   that the Advisor controls, is controlled by, or is under common control
   with, or to specified employees of any such companies, or to more than one
   such company, to the extent permitted by applicable law, certain of the
   Advisor's duties enumerated in Section 2 hereof, and may adjust the duties
   of such entity, the portion of portfolio assets of the Series that such
   entity shall manage and the fees to be paid to such entity, subject to the
   prior approval of the members of the Fund's Board of Directors who are not
   'interested persons,' as defined in the 1940 Act; provided, that the Advisor
   shall continue to supervise the services provided by such company or
   employees and any such delegation shall not relieve the Advisor of any of
   its obligations hereunder.

      (c) The Advisor may, but shall not be under any duty to, perform services
   on behalf of the __________ Series which are not required by this Agreement
   upon the request of the Fund's Board of Directors. Such services will be
   performed on behalf of the __________ Series and the Advisor's charge in
   rendering such services may be billed monthly to the Fund, subject to
   examination by the Fund's independent accountants. Payment or assumption by
   the Advisor of any Fund expense that the Advisor is not required to pay or
   assume under this Agreement shall not relieve the Advisor of any of its
   obligations to the __________ Series nor obligate the Advisor to pay or
   assume any similar __________ Series' expenses on any subsequent occasions.

   8.  Compensation.  SEE EXHIBIT E

   Except as hereinafter set forth, compensation under this Agreement shall be
calculated and accrued daily and the amounts of the daily accruals shall be paid

                                                                            D-5

Advisor's compensation for the preceding month shall be made as promptly as
possible.

   9.  Non-Exclusivity.  The services of the Advisor to the Fund are not to be
deemed to be exclusive, and the Advisor shall be free to render investment
advisory and corporate administrative or other services to others (including
other investment companies) and to engage in other activities, so long as its
services under this Agreement are not impaired thereby. It is understood and
agreed that officers or directors of the Advisor may serve as officers or

   12.  Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the
payment of any penalty, by vote of the Fund's Board of Directors or by vote of
a majority of the __________ Series' outstanding voting securities (as defined

   13.  Liability of Advisor.  In the performance of its duties hereunder, the
Advisor shall be obligated to exercise care and diligence and to act in good
faith and to

D-6



use its best efforts within reasonable limits to ensure the accuracy of all
services performed under this Agreement, but the Advisor shall not be liable

or employees, or reckless disregard by the Advisor of its duties under this
Agreement.

to such term or provision of the 1940 Act and to interpretations thereof, if
any, by the United States Courts or in the absence of any controlling decision
of any such court, by rules, regulations or orders of the SEC issued pursuant
to said Act. In addition, where the effect of a requirement of the 1940 Act
reflected in any provision of this Agreement is revised by rule, regulation or
order of the SEC, such provision shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of
such rule, regulation or order. Otherwise the provisions of this Agreement
shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of Maryland.

                                                                            D-7
