Full Value Partners L.P. 250 Pehle Ave, Suite 708, Saddle Brook, NJ 07663 (201) 556-0092 // Fax: (201) 556-0097 // pgoldstein@bulldoginvestors.com March 16, 2015 Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management One Beacon Street Boston, MA 02108 Attn: John Millette, Secretary Dear Mr. Millette: Full Value Partners L.P. is a member of the Bulldog Investors group which is concurrently filing an amendment to its Schedule 13D for Deutsche High Income Opportunities Fund Inc. (the "Fund"). Please refer to that filing for additional information. Full Value Partners owns 100 shares of the Fund in registered name and 219,590 in street name, all of which were purchased since August 2013. We are writing to you in an effort to comply with the Fund's extraordinarily complex and onerous advance notice requirements as set forth in Section 9.11 of its bylaws. Our understanding is that the purpose of an advance notice requirement is limited to ensuring that a stockholder meeting is orderly by eliminating the possibility of surprise nominations and proposals. We think many of the requirements in Section 9.11 do not serve that, or any legitimate business purpose. In particular, we do not believe the requirement that each of our nominees for election provide a completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement set forth in Section 9.12 of the bylaws to the incumbent directors is a valid requirement. Therefore, we ask that the board waive it. If our nominees are elected, they will promptly submit the appropriate forms. We intend to have a representative appear in person or by proxy at the Fund's 2015 annual meeting to nominate the persons named below for election as directors of the Fund: Gerald Hellerman (born 1937); 5431 NW 21st Avenue, Boca Raton, FL 33496 - Mr. Hellerman owned and served as Managing Director of Hellerman Associates, a financial and corporate consulting firm, from 1993 to 2013.
