   The DWS Dreman Value Income Edge Fund, Inc. (NYSE:DHG) is a
non-diversified, closed-end investment company. The Fund's investment
objective is to seek to achieve a high level of total return. The Fund
pursues its investment objective through a combination of an income
strategy designed to generate regular income and reduce volatility
(the "Income Strategy"), and a quantitative long/short strategy
designed to seek returns that are uncorrelated to the market (the
"Hedge Strategy"). Its shares are listed on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbol "DHG".

   Future earnings of the Fund can not be guaranteed and the Fund's
dividend policy is subject to change. The amount of monthly

   Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously
offered. There is a one time public offering and once issued, shares
of closed-end funds are sold in the open market through a stock
exchange. Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to
net asset value. The price of the fund's shares is determined by a
number of factors, several of which are beyond the control of the
fund. Therefore, the fund cannot predict whether its shares will trade
at, below or above net asset value.

   Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investments in
funds involve risk. Some funds have more risk than others. These
include funds that allow exposure to or otherwise concentrate
investments in certain sectors, geographic regions, security types,
market capitalization or foreign securities (e.g., political or
economic instability, which can be accentuated in emerging market
countries).
